PART I

ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

Corporate History

Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. (formerly Appiphany Technologies Holdings Corp.) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 24, 2010. On May 1, 2010, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Appiphany Technologies Corporation (“ATC”) to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of ATC in exchange for 1,500,000 common shares of the Company.  As the acquisition involved companies under common control, the acquisition was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805-50, Business Combinations – Related Issues, and the consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and ATC since inception. On February 19, 2019, Media Convergence Group, a Nevada corporation (“Media Convergence”) entered into a certain Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") for the sale of 500,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) of the Company.  The purchase of the Shares (“Share Purchase”) was closed on November 22, 2019.

Upon the Closing of the Share Purchase, Scott Cox, became the owner of the Preferred Shares, and as such gained voting control of the Company by virtue of the 10,000 for 1 voting rights of the Series A Preferred Shares.

29 

In connection with the Closing of the Share Purchase, the Company changed its management and Board. Robert Sargent resigned as the sole member of the Board and Scott Cox was elected as the sole member of the Board and as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.  Mr. Cox brings over 25 years of experience in the oil gas industry changed the Company’s business strategy to oil and gas exploration and investment.

Nature of Business

The Company is a growing U.S. energy company based in Frisco, Texas, engaged in the acquisition and development of high-probability, lower risk onshore oil and gas properties within the major oil and gas plays in the U.S. The Company’s dual-focused growth strategy relies primarily on leveraging management’s expertise to grow through the strategic acquisition of non-operating, working interests and royalty interests with the goal of developing into a major company in the industry. Through this strategy of acquisition of royalty and non-operating properties, the Company has the unique ability to rely on the technical and scientific expertise of the world-class E&P companies operating in the area.

The Company focuses on the acquisition of and exploitation of upstream energy assets, specifically targeting oil and gas mineral interests, oil and gas royalty interests and select non-operated working interests. We do not drill wells and we do not operate wells.  These acquisitions are structured primarily as acquisitions of leases, real property interests and mineral rights and royalties and are generally not regarded as the acquisition of securities, but rather real property interests.  As a royalty owner, the Company has the right to receive a portion of the production from the leased acreage (or of the proceeds of the sale thereof), but generally is not required to pay any portion of the costs of drilling or operating the wells on the leased acreage.

The Company began purchasing mineral and oil and gas royalty interests and surface properties in September 2020 and since such time has completed a total of 18 purchases.

Plan of Operations

To date, the Company has begun implementing its business plan and is attempting to secure additional funding to continue expansion of our services and products.  The Company has not had any significant revenues generated from its business operations since inception.  Until the Company is able to generate any consistent and significant revenue, it may be required to raise additional funds by way of equity or debt financing.

Government Regulation

The oil and gas business is subject to extensive governmental regulation under which, among other things, rates of production from our wells may be fixed. Governmental regulation also may limit or otherwise affect the market for wells’ production and the price which may be paid for that production. Governmental regulations relating to environmental matters could also affect our operations. The nature and extent of various regulations, the nature of other political developments and their overall effect upon us are not predictable.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

Our Properties

Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. has mineral and royalty interests in several properties across seven (7) U.S. states. A total of four hundred and six (406) reserves cases have been identified and evaluated. These include producing, non-producing and undeveloped wells or leases.  As of April 30, 2022, these interests entitled us to receive royalty payments from the producing wells on the acreage underlying our Royalties, with no additional future capital or operating expenses required. As of July 27, 2022, there were 406 wells producing on this acreage.

Comparison of Types of Interests

Royalty Interest. Royalty interests generally result when the owner of a mineral interest leases the underlying minerals to a working interest holder pursuant to an oil and gas lease. Typically, the resulting royalty interest is a cost-free percentage of production revenues for minerals extracted from the acreage. Holders of royalty interests are generally not responsible for capital expenditures or lease operating expenses, but may be responsible for certain post-production expenses, and typically have limited environmental liability. Royalty interests expire upon the expiration of the oil and gas lease. 

Mineral Interest. Mineral interests are perpetual rights of the owner to exploit, mine, and/or produce any or all of the minerals lying below the surface of the property. The holder of a mineral interest has the right to lease the minerals to a working interest holder pursuant to an oil and gas lease. 

Non-Participating Royalty Interest (“NPRI”). NPRI is an interest in oil and gas production that is created from the mineral estate.  The NPRI is expense-free, bearing no operational costs of production. The term “non-participating” indicates that the interest owner does not share in the bonus, rentals from a lease, nor the right to participate in the execution of oil and gas leases. 

Working Interest. Working interest holders have the rights to extract minerals from acreage leased pursuant to an oil and gas lease from a mineral interest holder. Holders of working interests are responsible for their pro rata share of capital expenditures and lease operating expenses, but holders of working interests only receive revenues after distributions have first been made to holders of royalty interests and ORRIs. Working interests expire upon the termination or expiration of the underlying oil and gas lease. 

Overriding Royalty Interest (“ORRIs”). ORRIs are created by carving out the right to receive royalties from a working interest. Like royalty interests, ORRIs do not confer an obligation to make capital expenditures or pay for lease operating expenses and have limited environmental liability, however ORRIs may be calculated net of post-production expenses, depending on how the ORRI is structured. ORRIs that are carved out of working interests are linked to the same underlying oil and gas lease that created the working interest, and therefore, such ORRIs are typically subject to expiration upon the expiration or termination of the oil and gas lease.

Proved Reserves

Evaluation and Review of Reserves

Under SEC rules, proved reserves are those quantities of oil and natural gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible–from a given date forward, from known reservoirs and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations–prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. If deterministic methods are used, the SEC has defined reasonable certainty for proved reserves as a “high degree of confidence that the quantities will be recovered.” All of our proved reserves as of April 30, 2022, were estimated using a deterministic method. The estimation of reserves involves two distinct determinations. The first determination results in the estimation of the quantities of recoverable oil and gas and the second determination results in the estimation of the uncertainty associated with those estimated quantities in accordance with the definitions established under SEC rules. The process of estimating the quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves relies on the use of certain generally accepted analytical procedures. These analytical procedures fall into three broad categories or methods: (1) performance-based methods, (2) volumetric-based methods and (3) analogy. These methods may be used singularly or in combination by the reserve evaluator in the process of estimating the quantities of reserves. The proved reserves for our properties were estimated by performance methods, analogy, or a combination of both methods. 100% of the proved producing reserves attributable to producing wells were estimated by performance methods. These performance methods include, but may not be limited to, decline curve analysis, which utilized extrapolations of available historical production and pressure data. The analogy method was used where there were inadequate historical performance data to establish a definitive trend and where the use of production performance data as a basis for the reserve estimates was considered to be inappropriate. All proved developed non-producing and undeveloped reserves were estimated by the analogy method.

To estimate economically recoverable proved reserves and related future net cash flows, our management considered many factors and assumptions, including the use of reservoir parameters derived from geological, geophysical, and engineering data which cannot be measured directly, economic criteria based on current costs and the SEC pricing requirements and forecasts of future production rates. To establish reasonable certainty with respect to our estimated proved reserves, the technologies and economic data used in the estimation of our proved reserves included production and well test data, downhole completion information, geologic data, electrical logs, radioactivity logs, core analyses, available seismic data and historical well cost and operating expense data. 

The preparation of our proved reserve estimates are completed in accordance with our internal control procedures. These procedures, which are intended to ensure reliability of reserve estimations, include the following: 

• review and verification of historical production data, which data is based on actual production as reported by our operators;

• preparation of reserve estimates;

• no employee’s compensation is tied to the amount of reserves booked.

The following table presents our estimated net proved oil and natural gas reserves as of April 30, 2022 and based on the reserve reports prepared by management. Each reserve report has been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. All of our proved reserves included in the reserve reports are located in the continental United States.(1)(2)

Estimates of reserves as of April 30, 2022, were prepared using an average price equal to the unweighted arithmetic average of hydrocarbon prices received on a field-by-field basis on the first day of each month within the year ended April 30, 2022 in accordance with revised SEC rules and regulations applicable to reserve estimates as of the end of such period. The unweighted arithmetic average first day of the month prices were $78.39 per Bbl for oil and $4.34 per Mcf for natural gas at April 30, 2022. The price per Bbl for natural gas liquids was modeled as a percentage of oil price, which was derived from historical accounting data. Reserve estimates do not include any value for probable or possible reserves that may exist, nor do they include any value for undeveloped acreage. The reserve estimates represent Royalties in our properties. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, actual future production, cash flows, taxes, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable oil and natural gas reserves may vary substantially from these estimates.

(2)

In this Annual Report, we have disclosed our PV-10 based on our reserve report. PV-10 represents the period end present value of estimated future cash inflows from our natural gas and crude oil reserves, less production costs, discounted at 10% per annum to reflect timing of future cash flows and using SEC pricing requirements in effect at the end of the period. Because of this, PV-10 can be used within the industry and by creditors and securities analysts to evaluate estimated net cash flows from proved reserves on a more comparable basis. PV-10 differs from standardized measure because it does not include the effects of income taxes. Neither PV-10 nor standardized measure represents an estimate of fair market value of our natural gas and oil properties. We and others in the industry use PV-10 as a measure to compare the relative size and value of estimated reserves held by companies without regard to the specific tax characteristics of such entities.

As of April 30, 2022, our historical proved developed reserves totaled 27,100 MBbls of oil and 346,900 MMcf of natural gas. Of the total proved developed reserves, 100% are producing and the remaining 0% are from wells that have been stimulated but are not yet producing hydrocarbons.

The foregoing reserves are all located within the continental United States. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating volumes of economically recoverable oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact manner. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation. As a result, the estimates of different engineers often vary. In addition, the results of drilling, testing and production may justify revisions of such estimates. Accordingly, reserve estimates often differ from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. Estimates of economically recoverable oil and natural gas and of future net revenues are based on a number of variables and assumptions, all of which may vary from actual results, including geologic interpretation, prices, and future production rates and costs. See “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report. We have not filed any estimates of total, proved net oil or natural gas reserves with any federal authority or agency other than the SEC.

Proved Undeveloped Reserves

As of April 30, 2022, our historical proved undeveloped reserves totaled 0 Bbls of oil and 0 Mcf of natural gas. PUD reserves will be converted from undeveloped to developed as the applicable wells begin production.

Competition

The oil and natural gas industry is intensely competitive, and some of the companies we compete with have greater resources. Many of these companies not only explore for and produce oil and natural gas, but also carry on midstream and refining operations and market petroleum and other products on a regional, national, or worldwide

33 

basis. These companies may be able to pay more for productive oil and natural gas properties and exploratory prospects or to define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties and prospects than our financial or human resources permit. In addition, these companies may have a greater ability to continue exploration activities during periods of low oil and natural gas market prices. Our larger or more integrated competitors may be able to absorb the burden of existing, and any changes to, federal, state, and local laws and regulations more easily than we can, which would adversely affect our competitive position.

Our ability to acquire additional mineral, royalty and similar interests in the future will be dependent upon our ability to evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment. In addition, because we have fewer financial and human resources than many companies in our industry, we may be at a disadvantage in bidding for these and other oil and natural gas properties. Further, oil and natural gas compete with other forms of energy available to customers, primarily based on price. These alternate forms of energy include electricity, coal, and fuel oils. Changes in the availability or price of oil and natural gas or other forms of energy, as well as business conditions, conservation, legislation, regulations, and the ability to convert to alternate fuels and other forms of energy may affect the demand for oil and natural gas.

Seasonal Nature of Business

Generally, demand for oil increases during the summer months and decreases during the winter months while natural gas decreases during the summer months and increases during the winter months. Certain natural gas users utilize natural gas storage facilities and purchase some of their anticipated winter requirements during the summer, which can lessen seasonal demand fluctuations. Seasonal weather conditions and lease stipulations can limit drilling and producing activities and other oil and natural gas operations in a portion of our operating areas. These seasonal anomalies can pose challenges for our operators in meeting well drilling objectives and can increase competition for equipment, supplies and personnel during the spring and summer months, which could lead to shortages and increase costs or delay operations.

Regulation

The following disclosure describes regulation more directly associated with operators of oil and natural gas properties, including our current operators, and other owners of working interests in oil and natural gas properties. To the extent we elect in the future to engage in the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties, we would be directly subject to the same regulations described below.

Oil and natural gas operations are subject to various types of legislation, regulation and other legal requirements enacted by governmental authorities. This legislation and regulation affecting the oil and natural gas industry is under constant review for amendment or expansion. Some of these requirements carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. The regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas industry increases the cost of doing business.

Environmental Matters

Oil and natural gas exploration, development and production operations are subject to stringent laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to protection of the environment or occupational health and safety. Numerous federal, state, and local governmental agencies, such as the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), issue regulations that often require difficult and costly compliance measures that carry substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties and may result in injunctive obligations for non-compliance. These laws and regulations may require the acquisition of a permit before drilling commences, restrict the types, quantities and concentrations of various substances that can be released into the environment in connection with drilling and production activities, limit or prohibit construction or drilling activities on certain lands lying within wilderness, wetlands, ecologically sensitive and other protected areas, require action to prevent or remediate pollution from current or former operations, such as plugging abandoned wells or closing earthen pits, result in the suspension or revocation of necessary permits, licenses and authorizations, require that additional pollution controls be installed and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from operations. The strict and joint and several liability nature of such laws and regulations could impose liability upon responsible parties (including the operators of the acreage underlying our Royalties) regardless of fault. Moreover, it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the release of hazardous substances, hydrocarbons, or other waste products into the environment. Changes in environmental laws and regulations occur frequently, and any changes that result in more stringent and costly pollution

34 

control or waste handling, storage, transport, disposal, or cleanup requirements could materially adversely affect Falcon’s business and prospects.

Waste Handling

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended (“RCRA”), and comparable state statutes and regulations promulgated thereunder, affect oil and natural gas exploration, development, and production activities by imposing requirements regarding the generation, transportation, treatment, storage, disposal, and cleanup of hazardous and non- hazardous wastes. With federal approval, the individual states administer some or all of the provisions of RCRA, sometimes in conjunction with their own, more stringent requirements. Although most wastes associated with the exploration, development, and production of oil and natural gas are exempt from regulation as hazardous wastes under RCRA, these wastes typically constitute “solid wastes” that are subject to less stringent non-hazardous waste requirements. However, it is possible that RCRA could be amended or the EPA or state environmental agencies could adopt policies to require oil and natural gas exploration, development, and production wastes to become subject to more stringent waste handling requirements. Any changes in the laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our operators’ capital expenditures and operating expenses, which in turn could affect production from our properties and adversely affect our business and prospects.

Remediation of Hazardous Substances

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as amended (“CERCLA”), also known as the “Superfund” law, and analogous state laws, generally impose strict and joint and several liability, without regard to fault or legality of the original conduct, on classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the current owner or operator of a contaminated facility, a former owner or operator of the facility at the time of contamination, and those persons that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substance at the facility. Under CERCLA and comparable state statutes, persons deemed “responsible parties” may be subject to strict and joint and several liability for the costs of removing or remediating previously disposed wastes (including wastes disposed of or released by prior owners or operators) or property contamination (including groundwater contamination), for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies. In addition, it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment. In addition, the risk of accidental spills or releases could expose the operators of the acreage underlying Falcon’s Royalties to significant liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on the operators’ businesses, financial condition, and results of operations. Liability for any contamination under these laws could require the operators of the acreage underlying Falcon’s Royalties to make significant expenditures to investigate and remediate such contamination or attain and maintain compliance with such laws and may otherwise have a material adverse effect on their results of operations, competitive position, or financial condition.

Water Discharges

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, also known as the “Clean Water Act” (“CWA”), the Safe Drinking Water Act (“SDWA”), the Oil Pollution Act (“OPA”), and analogous state laws and regulations promulgated thereunder impose restrictions and strict controls regarding the unauthorized discharge of pollutants, including produced waters and other gas and oil wastes, into navigable waters of the United States, as well as state waters. The discharge of pollutants into regulated waters is prohibited, except in accordance with the terms of a permit issued by the EPA or the state. The CWA and regulations implemented thereunder also prohibit the discharge of dredge and fill material into regulated waters, including jurisdictional wetlands, unless authorized by an appropriately issued permit. In June 2015, the EPA and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (the “Corps”) published a final rule attempting to clarify the federal jurisdictional reach over waters of the United States (“WOTUS”). Following the change in U.S. Presidential Administrations, there have been several attempts to modify or eliminate this rule. Most recently, on January 23, 2020, the EPA and Corps replaced the WOTUS rule adopted in 2015 with the narrower Navigable Waters Protection Rule, and litigation is expected.

Therefore, the scope of jurisdiction under the CWA is uncertain at this time, and any increase in scope could result in increased costs or delays with respect to obtaining permits for certain activities for our operators. In addition, spill prevention, control, and countermeasure plan requirements under federal law require appropriate containment berms and similar structures to help prevent the contamination of navigable waters in the event of a petroleum hydrocarbon tank spill, rupture, or leak. The EPA has also adopted regulations requiring certain oil and natural gas

35 

exploration and production facilities to obtain individual permits or coverage under general permits for storm water discharges.     

The OPA is the primary federal law for oil spill liability. The OPA contains numerous requirements relating to the prevention of and response to petroleum releases into waters of the United States, including the requirement that operators of offshore facilities and certain onshore facilities near or crossing waterways must develop and maintain facility response contingency plans and maintain certain significant levels of financial assurance to cover potential environmental cleanup and restoration costs. The OPA subjects owners of facilities to strict, joint, and several liability for all containment and cleanup costs and certain other damages arising from a release, including, but not limited to, the costs of responding to a release of oil into surface waters.

In addition, the SDWA grants the EPA broad authority to take action to protect public health when an underground source of drinking water is threatened with pollution that presents an imminent and substantial endangerment to humans, which could result in orders prohibiting or limiting the operations of oil and natural gas production facilities. The EPA has asserted regulatory authority pursuant to the SDWA’s Underground Injection Control (“UIC”) program over hydraulic fracturing activities involving the use of diesel fuel in fracturing fluids and issued guidance covering such activities. The SDWA also regulates saltwater disposal wells under the UIC Program. Recent concerns related to the operation of saltwater disposal wells and induced seismicity have led some states to impose limits on the total volume of produced water such wells can dispose of order disposal wells to cease operations, or limited the construction of new wells. These seismic events have also resulted in environmental groups and local residents filing lawsuits against operators in areas where the events occur seeking damages and injunctions limiting or prohibiting saltwater disposal well construction activities and operations. A lack of saltwater disposal wells in production areas could result in increased disposal costs for our operators if they are forced to transport produced water by truck, pipeline, or other method over long distances, or force them to curtail operations.

Noncompliance with the Clean Water Act, SDWA, or the OPA may result in substantial administrative, civil, and criminal penalties, as well as injunctive obligations, all of which could affect production from our properties and adversely affect our business and prospects.

Air Emissions

The federal Clean Air Act (“CAA”) and comparable state laws and regulations regulate emissions of various air pollutants through the issuance of permits and the imposition of other requirements. The EPA has developed, and continues to develop, stringent regulations governing emissions of air pollutants at specified sources. New facilities may be required to obtain permits before work can begin, and existing facilities may be required to obtain additional permits and incur capital costs in order to remain in compliance. For example, in October 2015, the EPA lowered the National Ambient Air Quality Standard, (“NAAQS”) for ozone from 75 to 70 parts per billion for both the 8-hour primary and secondary standards, and the agency completed attainment/non-attainment designations in July 2018. State implementation of the revised NAAQS could result in stricter permitting requirements, delay, or prohibit the ability of our operators to obtain such permits, and result in increased expenditures for pollution control equipment, the costs of which could be significant. Separately, in June 2016, the EPA finalized rules regarding criteria for aggregating multiple small surface sites into a single source for air-quality permitting purposes applicable to the oil and natural gas industry. This rule could cause small facilities, on an aggregate basis, to be deemed a major source, thereby triggering more stringent air permitting processes and requirements. These laws and regulations may increase the costs of compliance for oil and natural gas producers and impact production on our properties, and federal and state regulatory agencies can impose administrative, civil, and criminal penalties for non-compliance with air permits or other requirements of the federal Clean Air Act and associated state laws and regulations. Moreover, obtaining or renewing permits has the potential to delay the development of oil and natural gas exploration and development projects. All of these factors could impact production on our properties and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Climate Change

The threat of climate change continues to attract considerable attention in the United States and in foreign countries, numerous proposals have been made and could continue to be made at the international, national, regional, and state levels of government to monitor and limit existing emissions of greenhouse gases (“GHGs”) as well as to restrict or eliminate such future emissions. As a result, our operations as well as the operations of our operators are subject to a series of regulatory, political, litigation, and financial risks associated with the production and processing of fossil fuels and emission of GHGs.

36 

In the United States, no comprehensive climate change legislation has been implemented at the federal level. However, the current administration has highlighted addressing climate change as a priority and has issued several executive orders addressing climate change, including one that calls for substantial action on climate change, such as the increased use of zero-emission vehicles by the federal government, the elimination of subsidies provided to the fossil fuel industry, and increased emphasis on climate-related risks across government agencies and economic sectors. Moreover, following the U.S. Supreme Court finding that GHG emissions constitute a pollutant under the CAA, the EPA has adopted regulations that, among other things, establish construction and operating permit reviews for GHG emissions from certain large stationary sources and require the monitoring and annual reporting of GHG emissions from certain petroleum and natural gas system sources in the United States. The regulation of methane from oil and gas facilities has been subject to uncertainty in recent years. The current administration has also issued an executive order calling for the suspension, revision, or rescission, of a September 2020 rule rescinding certain methane standards and removing transmission and storage segments from the source category for certain regulations, and the reinstatement or issuance of methane emissions standards for new, modified, and existing oil and gas facilities.

Additionally, various states and groups of states have adopted or are considering adopting legislation, regulations or other regulatory initiatives that are focused on such areas GHG cap and trade programs, carbon taxes, reporting and tracking programs, and restriction of emissions. At the international level, the United Nations-sponsored “Paris Agreement,” requires member states to submit non-binding, individually determined reduction goals every five years after 2020. Although the United States had withdrawn from the Paris Agreement, the current administration recently recommitted the United States to the agreement by executive order. However, the impacts of this executive order and the terms of any legislation or regulation to implement the United States’ commitment remain unclear at this time.

Governmental, scientific, and public concern over the threat of climate change arising from GHG emissions has resulted in increasing political risks in the United States, including climate-change-related pledges made by some candidates now in political office. These have included promises to limit emissions and curtail certain production of oil and natural gas. Other actions that could be pursued by the current administration may include the imposition of more restrictive requirements for the establishment of pipeline infrastructure or the permitting of LNG export facilities, as well as more restrictive GHG emission limitations for oil and gas facilities. Litigation risks are also increasing as a number of cities and other local governments have sought to bring suit against the largest oil and natural gas companies in state or federal court, alleging among other things, that such companies created public nuisances by producing fuels that contributed to climate change or alleging that the companies have been aware of the adverse effects of climate change for some time but failed to adequately disclose such impacts to their investors or customers.

There are also increasing financial risks for fossil fuel producers as shareholders currently invested in fossil-fuel energy companies may elect in the future to shift some or all of their investments into non-energy related sectors. Institutional lenders who provide financing to fossil-fuel energy companies also have become more attentive to sustainable lending practices and some of them may elect not to provide funding for fossil fuel energy companies. Additionally, financial institutions may be required to adopt policies that have the effect of reducing the funding provided to the fossil fuel sector. The Federal Reserve recently joined the Network for Greening the Financial System, a consortium of financial regulators focused on addressing climate-related risks in the financial sector.

Limitation of investments in and financing for fossil fuel energy companies could result in the restriction, delay, or cancellation of drilling programs or development or production activities.

The adoption and implementation of new or more stringent international, federal, or state legislation, regulations, or other regulatory initiatives that impose more stringent standards for GHG emissions from the oil and natural gas sector or otherwise restrict the areas in which this sector may produce oil and natural gas or generate the GHG emissions could result in increased costs of compliance or costs of consuming, and thereby reduce demand for oil and natural gas, which could reduce the profitability of our interests. Additionally, political, litigation, and financial risks may result in our oil and natural gas operators restricting or cancelling production activities, incurring liability for infrastructure damages as a result of climatic changes, or impairing their ability to continue to operate in an economic manner, which also could reduce the profitability of our interests. One or more of these developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operation.

Regulation of Hydraulic Fracturing

The process of hydraulic fracturing involves the injection of water, sand, and chemicals under pressure into formations to fracture the surrounding rock and stimulate production. The process is typically regulated by state oil

37 

and natural gas commissions, but recently the EPA and other federal agencies have asserted jurisdiction over certain aspects of hydraulic fracturing. For example, the EPA issued effluent limitation guidelines in June 2016 that prohibit the discharge of wastewater from hydraulic fracturing operations to publicly owned wastewater treatment plants.

In December 2016, the EPA released its final report on the potential impacts of hydraulic fracturing on drinking water resources. The final report concluded that “water cycle” activities associated with hydraulic fracturing may impact drinking water resources under certain limited circumstances. The EPA has not proposed to take any action in response to the report’s findings.

Several states where we own interests in oil and gas producing properties, have adopted regulations that could restrict or prohibit hydraulic fracturing in certain circumstances or require the disclosure of the composition of hydraulic-fracturing fluids. For example, Texas has imposed certain limits on the permitting or operation of disposal wells in areas with increased instances of induced seismic events. These existing or any new legal requirements establishing seismic permitting requirements or similar restrictions on the construction or operation of disposal wells for the injection of produced water likely will result in added costs to comply and affect our operators’ rate of production, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. In addition to state laws, local land use restrictions, such as city ordinances, may restrict or prohibit the performance of well drilling in general or hydraulic fracturing in particular.

We cannot predict what additional state or local requirements may be imposed in the future on oil and gas operations in the states in which we own interests. In the event state, local, or municipal legal restrictions are adopted in areas where our operators conduct operations, our operators may incur substantial costs to comply with these requirements, which may be significant in nature, experience delays, or curtailment in the pursuit of exploration, development, or production activities and perhaps even be precluded from the drilling of wells.

There has been increasing public controversy regarding hydraulic fracturing with regard to increased risks of induced seismicity, the use of fracturing fluids, impacts on drinking water supplies, use of water, and the potential for impacts to surface water, groundwater, and the environment generally. A number of lawsuits and enforcement actions have been initiated across the country implicating hydraulic-fracturing practices. If new laws or regulations are adopted that significantly restrict hydraulic fracturing, those laws could make it more difficult or costly for our operators to perform fracturing to stimulate production from tight formations. In addition, if hydraulic fracturing is further regulated at the federal or state level, fracturing activities on our properties could become subject to additional permitting and financial assurance requirements, more stringent construction specifications, increased monitoring, reporting and recordkeeping obligations, plugging and abandonment requirements, and also to attendant permitting delays and potential increases in costs. Legislative changes could cause operators to incur substantial compliance costs. At this time, it is not possible to estimate the impact on our business of newly enacted or potential federal or state legislation governing hydraulic fracturing.

Endangered Species Act

Some of the operations on acreage underlying our Royalties may be located in areas that are designated as habitats for endangered or threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. In February 2016, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service published a final policy that alters how it identifies critical habitat for endangered and threatened species. A critical habitat designation could result in further material restrictions to federal and private land use and could delay or prohibit land access or development. Moreover, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service continues to make listing decisions and critical habitat designations where necessary, including for over 250 species as required under a 2011 settlement approved by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, and many hundreds of additional anticipated listing decisions have already been identified beyond those recognized in the 2011 settlement. The designation of previously unprotected species as being endangered or threatened, if located in the areas where we have Royalties, could cause the operators of the operations on the acreage underlying our Royalties to incur additional costs or become subject to operating restrictions in areas where the species are known to exist.

Other Regulation of the Oil and Natural Gas Industry

The oil and natural gas industry is extensively regulated by numerous federal, state and local authorities. Legislation affecting the oil and natural gas industry is under constant review for amendment or expansion, frequently increasing the regulatory burden. Also, numerous departments and agencies, both federal and state, are authorized by statute to issue rules and regulations that are binding on the oil and natural gas industry and its individual members, some of which carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. Although the regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas industry increases the cost of doing business, these burdens generally do not affect the Company any differently

38 

or to any greater or lesser extent than they affect other companies in the industry with similar types, quantities, and locations of production.

The availability, terms and cost of transportation significantly affect sales of oil and natural gas. The interstate transportation and sale for resale of oil and natural gas is subject to federal regulation, including regulation of the terms, conditions and rates for interstate transportation, storage, and various other matters, primarily by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). Federal and state regulations govern the price and terms for access to oil and natural gas pipeline transportation. FERC’s regulations for interstate oil and natural gas transmission in some circumstances may also affect the intrastate transportation of oil and natural gas.

Although oil and natural gas prices are currently unregulated, Congress historically has been active in the area of oil and natural gas regulation. The Company cannot predict whether new legislation to regulate oil and natural gas might be proposed, what proposals, if any, might actually be enacted by Congress or the various state legislatures, and what effect, if any, the proposals might have on Falcon’s operations. Sales of condensate and oil and natural gas liquids are not currently regulated and are made at market prices.

Drilling and Production

The operations of the Company’s operators are subject to various types of regulation at the federal, state, and local level. These types of regulation include requiring permits for the drilling of wells, drilling bonds and reports concerning operations. The state, and some counties and municipalities, in which the Company operates also regulate one or more of the following: 

• the location of wells;

• the method of drilling and casing wells;

• the timing of construction or drilling activities, including seasonal wildlife closures;

• the rates of production or “allowables”;

• the surface use and restoration of properties upon which wells are drilled;

• the plugging and abandoning of wells; and

• notice to, and consultation with, surface owners and other third parties.

State laws regulate the size and shape of drilling and spacing units or proration units governing the pooling of oil and natural gas properties. Some states allow forced pooling or integration of tracts to facilitate exploration while other states rely on voluntary pooling of lands and leases. In some instances, forced pooling or unitization may be implemented by third parties and may reduce the Company’s interest in the unitized properties. In addition, state conservation laws establish maximum rates of production from oil and natural gas wells, generally prohibit the venting or flaring of natural gas and impose requirements regarding the ratability of production. These laws and regulations may limit the amount of oil and natural gas that the Company’s operators can produce from our wells or limit the number of wells or the locations at which operators can drill. Moreover, each state generally imposes a production or severance tax with respect to the production and sale of oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids within its jurisdiction. States do not regulate wellhead prices or engage in other similar direct regulation, but we cannot assure you that they will not do so in the future. The effect of such future regulations may be to limit the amounts of oil and natural gas that may be produced from our wells, negatively affect the economics of production from these wells or to limit the number of locations operators can drill.

Federal, state, and local regulations provide detailed requirements for the abandonment of wells, closure or decommissioning of production facilities and pipelines and for site restoration in areas where the operators of the acreage underlying our Royalties operate. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and many other state and local authorities also have regulations for plugging and abandonment, decommissioning and site restoration. Although the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers does not require bonds or other financial assurances, some state agencies and municipalities do have such requirements.

Natural Gas Sales and Transportation

Historically, federal legislation and regulatory controls have affected the price and marketing of natural gas. FERC has jurisdiction over the transportation and sale for resale of natural gas in interstate commerce by natural gas companies under the Natural Gas Act of 1938 (“NGA”) and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978. Since 1978, various federal laws have been enacted which have resulted in the complete removal of all price and non-price controls for sales of domestic natural gas sold in “first sales.” Under the Energy Policy Act of 2005, FERC has substantial enforcement authority to prohibit the manipulation of natural gas markets and enforce its rules and orders, including the ability to assess substantial civil penalties.

FERC also regulates interstate natural gas transportation rates and service conditions and establishes the terms under which our operators may use interstate natural gas pipeline capacity, which affects the marketing of natural gas that our operators produce, as well as the revenues our operators receive for sales of natural gas and release of natural gas pipeline capacity. Commencing in 1985, FERC promulgated a series of orders, regulations and rule makings that significantly fostered competition in the business of transporting and marketing gas. Today, interstate pipeline companies are required to provide nondiscriminatory transportation services to producers, marketers, and other shippers, regardless of whether such shippers are affiliated with an interstate pipeline company. FERC’s initiatives have led to the development of a competitive, open access market for natural gas purchases and sales that permits all purchasers of natural gas to buy gas directly from third-party sellers other than pipelines. However, the natural gas industry historically has been very heavily regulated; therefore, we cannot guarantee that the less stringent regulatory approach currently pursued by FERC and Congress will continue indefinitely into the future nor can we determine what effect, if any, future regulatory changes might have on our natural gas-related activities.

Under FERC’s current regulatory regime, transmission services must be provided on an open-access, nondiscriminatory basis at cost-based rates or at market-based rates if the transportation market at issue is sufficiently competitive. Gathering service, which occurs upstream of jurisdictional transmission services, is regulated by the states onshore and in-state waters. Section 1(b) of the NGA exempts natural gas gathering facilities from regulation by FERC as a natural gas company under the NGA. Although its policy is still in flux, FERC has in the past reclassified certain jurisdictional transmission facilities as non-jurisdictional gathering facilities, which has the tendency to increase our operators’ costs of transporting gas to point-of-sale locations.

Oil Sales and Transportation

Sales of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids are not currently regulated and are made at negotiated prices. Nevertheless, Congress could reenact price controls in the future.

Crude oil sales are affected by the availability, terms, and cost of transportation. The transportation of oil in common carrier pipelines is also subject to rate regulation. FERC regulates interstate oil pipeline transportation rates under the Interstate Commerce Act and intrastate oil pipeline transportation rates are subject to regulation by state regulatory commissions. The basis for intrastate oil pipeline regulation, and the degree of regulatory oversight and scrutiny given to intrastate oil pipeline rates, varies from state to state. Insofar as effective interstate and intrastate rates are equally applicable to all comparable shippers, we believe that the regulation of oil transportation rates will not affect our operations in any materially different way than such regulation will affect the operations of our competitors.

Further, interstate, and intrastate common carrier oil pipelines must provide service on a non-discriminatory basis. Under this open access standard, common carriers must offer service to all shippers requesting service on the same terms and under the same rates. When oil pipelines operate at full capacity, access is governed by portioning provisions set forth in the pipelines’ published tariffs. Accordingly, we believe that access to oil pipeline transportation services generally will be available to our operators to the same extent as to the Company or their competitors. 

State Regulation

Texas regulates the drilling for, and the production, gathering and sale of, oil and natural gas, including imposing severance taxes and requirements for obtaining drilling permits. Texas currently imposes a 4.6% severance tax on the market value of oil production and a 7.5% severance tax on the market value of natural gas production. States also regulate the method of developing new fields, the spacing and operation of wells and the prevention of waste of oil and natural gas resources. States may regulate rates of production and may establish maximum daily production allowables from oil and natural gas wells based on market demand or resource conservation, or both. States do not regulate wellhead prices or engage in other similar direct economic regulation, but we cannot assure you that

40 

they will not do so in the future. The effect of these regulations may be to limit the amount of oil and natural gas that may be produced from our wells and to limit the number of wells or locations our operators can drill.

The petroleum industry is also subject to compliance with various other federal, state, and local regulations and laws. Some of those laws relate to resource conservation and equal employment opportunity. We do not believe that compliance with these laws will have a material adverse effect on us.  Our offices are currently located at 5750 Genesis Court, Suite 220B, Frisco, Texas 75043, and our telephone number is (972) 217-4080. We do not foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining any required additional space.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our director, officer or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

Operating Revenues

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded revenues of $719,998 compared to revenues of $48,520 during the year ended April 30, 2021.  Revenues were derived from royalties earned from oil and gas interests and the increase is due to the fact that the fiscal 2022 represented the first full fiscal year of royalty revenues and the Company also increased its investment in additional royalty producing properties in order to generate additional royalty revenue income.   

Operating Expenses and Net Loss

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded operating expenses of $3,870,118 compared to $3,014,593 during the year ended April 30, 2021. The increase in operating expenses was due to increases in consulting fees of $300,278, project expenditures of $84,622, reclassification of depletion expenses of $50,185 and general and administrative fees of $747,449 due to an overall increase in operating activity as a result in an increase in investments in additional oil and gas royalty investments which resulted in an increase in day-to-day operating expenditures.  The Company also saw an increase in depletion expense of $515,541 as a result of a full year of oil and gas royalty operations for the year and also due to an increase in the number of oil and gas royalty properties which increased the amount of depletion expense recorded during the year, and an increase in professional fees of $47,525 due to increase in costs related to the Company’s SEC filings as a result of the continued growth and investment in its operations which resulted in additional time and costs incurred for accounting, audit, and legal professional fees incurred by the Company.  The increases were offset by a decrease in management fees of $204,000 as the Company did not issue any share-based compensation in the current year to management and officers of the Company, and a decrease of $661,764 in impairment of oil and gas properties as the market price of oil and natural gas increased in the current year compared to the prior year, which resulted in less likelihood of impairment loss of carrying value under the full cost method of accounting for the Company’s oil and natural gas operations.  

Net loss for the year ended April 30, 2022 was $3,422,146 as compared with $3,315,000 during the year ended April 30, 2021.  In addition to the increase in operating expenses, the Company recorded $40,000 of commitment fees and $236,748 of finance charges relating to the costs incurred for the Company’s debt financing including its Series A and C preferred stock, which was offset by expenditures incurred in fiscal 2021 that were not incurred in fiscal 2022 including $121,974 loss on the change in fair value of derivative liability relating to the fluctuation of fair value of the conversion feature embedded in convertible notes payable, and $366,057 in interest expense related to debt servicing costs with respect to outstanding convertible debentures during the year.  

For the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded a loss per share of $0.00 as compared with a loss per share of $0.03 per share for the year ended April 30, 2021.

As of April 30, 2022, the Company's total asset balance was $5,085,057, compared to $3,217,998 as at April 30, 2021 and the increase is a reflection of the Company’s continued focus and objective to increase the number and value of various oil and gas royalty projects.  Overall, the Company increased its carrying value of oil and gas properties of $1,042,653, and property and equipment of $2,778,721 and was offset by a decrease in cash of $1,946,691 as the cash was used to acquire the various additional investments in land, equipment, and oil and gas royalty properties.      

As of April 30, 2022, the Company had total liabilities of $1,474,482 compared with total liabilities of $562,242 as at April 30, 2021. The increase in total liabilities was due the recognition of $1,228,018 of warrant liabilities relating to the issuance of 125,043,566 share purchase warrants with respect to its Series C preferred stock offering, which was determined using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model assuming an expected life of 5 years, volatility between 314-318%, risk free rate between 1.2-1.7% per annum, and no expected forfeitures or dividends. The increase was offset by decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $43,533 due to timing differences between when the invoices are received by the Company and when the Company initiates payment, as well as a decrease in convertible preferred Series B stock liability of $214,940 as these amounts were exercised by former management of the Company.     

43 

As of April 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,157,272 compared with a working capital surplus of $1,723,019 as of April 30, 2021.  The decrease in working capital was due to the fact that the Company recorded the fair value of $1,228,018 for the liability portion related to share purchase warrants that were issued to the warrant holder.

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company issued 451,550,000 common shares for net proceeds of $3,920,500, issued 15,030,769 common shares with a fair value of $214,940 related to conversion of Series A preferred stock, issuance of 19,200,000 common shares with a fair value of $194,690 for services, 4,000,000 common shares issued to settle accounts payable with a fair value of $40,000 and 6,500,000 common shares with a fair value of $74,750

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company used $1,150,005 of cash for operating activities compared with $685,159 of cash for operating activities during the year ended April 30, 2021. The increase was due to an increase in operating activities during the year including the acquisition of oil and gas interests which resulted an increase in general and administrative and overhead costs, including consulting and management fees for the sourcing of oil and gas properties, and professional fees relating to drafting and reviewing legal documents relating to the acquisition of the oil and gas interests.   

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company used $5,679,020 of cash for investing activities compared to $2,501,982 during the year ended April 30, 2021.  During the current year, the Company incurred $2,874,425 for acquisition of oil and gas interests compared to $2,501,982 during the year ended April 30, 2021 and also incurred $2,804,595 for acquisition of property and equipment compared to $nil for the year ended April 30, 2021. During the year, the Company acquired additional land interests, vehicles, equipment, and leasehold improvements.    

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company received $4,882,334, which included $3,920,500 from the issuance of common shares, and $1,000,000 received from the issuance of Series C preferred stock.  During the year ended April 30, 2021, the Company received $5,273,407 of cash from financing activities including $5,956,525 for issuance of common shares relating to a private placement, $177,000 of proceeds from issuance of convertible debentures offset by repayment of $794,349 to outstanding convertible debentures.  

Evaluation of Ability to Maintain Current Level of Operations 

In connection with preparing the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022, management evaluated whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raised substantial doubt about our ability to meet our obligations as they became due for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of our Fiscal 2022 consolidated financial statements. Management assessed that there were such conditions and events, including a history of recurring operating losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, the continued negative impact by the volatility of the global oil and gas markets, a strong U.S. dollar in certain markets making our products more expensive in such markets, the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and ongoing global geopolitical tensions. We incurred a net loss for the year ended April 30, 2022 of $3,422,146 as compared with $3,315,000 during the year ended April 30, 2021.  In addition to the increase in operating expenses, the Company recorded $40,000 of commitment fees and $236,748 of finance charges relating to the costs incurred for the Company’s debt financing including its Series A and C preferred stock, which was offset by expenditures incurred in fiscal 2021 that were not incurred in fiscal 2022 including $121,974 loss on the change in fair value of derivative liability relating to the fluctuation of fair value of the conversion feature embedded in convertible notes payable, and $366,057 in interest expense related to debt servicing costs with respect to outstanding convertible debentures during the year.  

44 

Our ability to continue current operations and to execute on management’s plan is dependent on our ability to generate cash flows from operations. Management believes that we will continue to make progress on our path to profitability through increased revenue streams

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,422,146 and used cash of $1,150,005 for operating activities.  As at April 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,157,272 and an accumulated deficit of $14,258,891. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The audited financial statements included in this Form 10-K does 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.

We may seek to raise funds by selling additional securities (through the at-the-market offering or otherwise) to the public or to selected investors or by obtaining debt financing. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funds on commercially favorable terms or at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the fully diluted ownership percentages of existing stockholders will be reduced. In addition, any equity or debt securities that we would issue may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock or preferred stock.

Based on our current operating plan, management anticipates that, given current working capital levels and current financial projections, including price increases, we will be able to meet our financial obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of our Fiscal 2022 financial statements.

Depending on the timing of revenue recognition, our future capital requirements may vary materially from those now planned. The amount of capital that we will need in the future will require us to achieve significantly increased sales volume, which is dependent on many factors, including:

● the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy;

● the continuing impact from the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine;

● oil and gas prices; and

● global supply

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.  

Future Financings

We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, we  

45 

evaluate our estimates.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

●Our revenue consists of royalty payments from mineral leases and oil and gas investments.   

●We reclassified depletion expenses to conform the current period standards.  The reclassification had no material impact on our audited consolidated financial statements.   

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Verde Bio Holdings, Inc.:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. (“the Company”) as of April 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2022 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Explanatory Paragraph Regarding Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has negative cash flows from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits.  We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.  Such procedures included examining on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.  

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) related to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Impairment Assessment of Oil and Gas Properties Impacted by the Company’s Estimation of Proved Reserves

As of April 30, 2022, the Company’s oil and gas properties totaled $1,938,140. As more fully described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company accounts for its oil and gas properties using the full cost method of accounting which requires management to make estimates of proved reserve volumes and future net revenues to assess its oil and gas properties for potential impairment. To estimate the volume of proved reserves and future net revenue, management engaged a third-party reserve engineer specialist who made significant estimates and assumptions including forecasting the production decline rate of producing properties. The estimation of proved reserves is also impacted by management’s judgments and estimates

F-1

regarding the financial performance of wells associated with proved reserves to determine if wells are expected with reasonable certainty to be economical under the appropriate pricing assumptions required in the estimation of potential impairment assessment. We identified the estimation of proved reserves of oil and gas properties and related impairment as a critical audit matter.

The principal consideration for our determination that the estimation of proved reserves is a critical audit matter is that changes in certain inputs and assumptions, which require a high degree of subjectivity, necessary to estimate the volume and future net revenues of the Company’s proved reserves could have a significant impact on the measurement of potential impairment. In turn, auditing those inputs and assumptions required subjective and complex auditor judgment.  

How the Critical Audit Matter was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the estimation of proved reserves included the following, among others.

·We obtained an understanding of the Company’s controls relating to management’s estimation of proved reserves for the purpose of assessing the Company’s oil and gas properties for potential impairment.  

·We evaluated the independence, objectivity, and professional qualifications of the third-party reserve engineer, made inquiries of that specialist regarding the process followed and judgments made to estimate the Company’s proved reserve volumes, and read the reserve report prepared by the third-party specialist.   

·To the extent key inputs and assumptions used to determine proved reserve volumes and other cash flow inputs and assumptions, including, but not limited to based SEC pricing, historical pricing differentials and ownership interests, we tested management’s process for determining the assumptions, including examining the underlying support on a sample basis. Specifically, our audit procedures involved testing management’s assumptions by performing the following:  

oRecalculated pricing utilized, including validating the prices were the average oil and natural gas prices received by the Company as of the first trading day of each month over the preceding twelve months;  

oCompared the estimated pricing differentials used in the reserve report to realized prices related to revenue transactions recorded in the current year; and  

oTested the working and net revenue interests used in the reserve report by inspecting land and division order records

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in US dollars)

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Verde Bio Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 24, 2010. Currently, the Company is in the business of oil and gas exploration and investment.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. The impact on the Company has not been significant but management continues to monitor the situation.

Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,422,146 and used cash of $1,150,005 for operating activities. As at April 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,157,272 and an accumulated deficit of $14,258,891.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing, and generating profitable operations from the Company’s future operations. The Company will continue to rely on equity sales of its common shares in order to continue to fund business operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date these financial statements are issued.  These 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.  

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

(a)Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The consolidated financial statements are comprised of the records of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, IP Risk Control Inc., a company incorporated in the State of Nevada. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is April 30.

(b)Use of Estimates 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts receivable relating to oil and gas interests which is based on the operator’s production statements, carrying value of oil and gas properties, the useful life, carrying value, and incremental borrowing rate used for right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation, revenue recognition including the calculation of the reserves and the fair value of the reserves for oil and gas interests, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

(c)Cash and cash equivalents 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are covered by FDIC deposit insurance for up to $250,000.  As at April 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no items representing cash equivalents.

(d)Accounts Receivable 

Accounts receivable represents amounts receivable with respect to oil and gas royalty revenues. Amounts are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable balance. The Company determines allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical experience and current economic conditions. The Company reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on a regular basis.   

(e)Long-Lived Assets   

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, mineral properties, and purchased intangibles with finite lives (subject to amortization), are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment and ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. The Company’s long-lived assets consist of computer software and some oil and gas properties.

Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Any impairment in value is recognized as an expense in the period when the impairment occurs.   

(f)Property and Equipment 

Property and equipment is comprised of land, equipment, vehicles, and leasehold improvements and are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.  Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their expected useful life, with the exception of land which has an unlimited useful life, as follows:

Vehicles5 years 

Equipment5 years 

Leasehold improvements5 years

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(g)Royalty Interest in Oil and Gas Properties 

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations.  Under this approach, all acquisition costs incurred for the purposes of acquiring mineral and royalty interests are capitalized into a full cost pool.  Costs associated with general corporate activities are expensed in the period incurred.

Capitalized costs are amortized using the units-of-production method.  Under this method, the provision for depletion is calculated by multiplying total production for the period by a depletion rate.  The depletion rate is determined by dividing the total unamortized cost base by net equivalent proved reserves at the beginning of the period.  

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are excluded from the amortizable cost base until a determination has been made as to the existence of proved reserves.  Unevaluated properties are reviewed periodically to determine whether the costs incurred should be reclassified to the full cost pool and subjected to amortization.  The costs associated with unevaluated properties primarily consist of acquisition costs and capitalized general and administrative costs.  Unevaluated properties are assessed for impairment on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant.  

The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: expectation of future drilling activity; past drilling results and activity; geological and geophysical evaluations; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, the cumulative acquisition costs incurred to date for such property are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to amortization. Sales and abandonments of oil and natural gas properties being amortized are accounted for as adjustments to the full cost pool, with no gain or loss recognized unless the adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves. A significant alteration would not ordinarily be expected to occur upon the sale of reserves involving less than 25% of the reserve quantities of a cost center.

Natural gas volumes are converted to barrels of oil equivalent (Boe) at the rate of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas to one barrel (Bbl) of oil. This convention is not an equivalent price basis and there may be a large difference in value between an equivalent volume of oil versus an equivalent volume of natural gas.

Under the full cost method of accounting, total capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal to the present value of future net revenues from proved reserves, discounted at 10% per annum ("PV-10"), plus the cost of unevaluated properties less related income tax effects (the ceiling limitation). A ceiling limitation is calculated at each reporting period. If total capitalized costs, net of accumulated DD&A and related deferred income taxes are greater than the ceiling limitation, a write-down or impairment of the full cost pool is required. A write-down of the carrying value of the full cost pool is a noncash charge that reduces earnings and impacts equity in the period of occurrence and typically results in lower depletion expense in future periods. Once incurred, a write-down cannot be reversed at a later date. The ceiling limitation calculation is prepared using an unweighted arithmetic average of oil prices ("SEC oil price") and natural gas prices ("SEC gas price") as of the first day of each month for the trailing 12-month period ended April 30, 2022, adjusted by area for energy content, transportation fees and regional price differentials, as required under the guidelines established by the SEC. If applicable, these net wellhead prices would be further adjusted to include the effects of any fixed price arrangements for the sale of oil and natural gas.

(h)Leases 

Right-of-Use Asset

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease which is measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of the right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liability recognized on the commencement or lease standard adoption date. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over a useful life of the underlying asset.

Lease Liability

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognizes the lease liability as measured by the present value of the lease payments over the term of the lease. Fixed lease payments are included in the present value calculation and variable lease payments are expensed as they are incurred. If an interest rate is not explicit in a lease, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate for a period that closely matches the lease term.

The incremental rate of borrowing at the lease commencement date was used to calculate the present value of the lease liability as the implicit interest rate of the lease is not readily determinable. Subsequent to the recognition of the lease liability on the commencement date the lease liability increases through accretion of interest and decreases as lease payments are made. The carrying amount of the lease liability is remeasured if there is a modification in the term of the lease or in fixed payment amounts.

(i)Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share  

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  As of April 30, 2022, the Company had 143,609,408 (2021 – 7,718,600) potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.

(j)  Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 1 – quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(j)Fair Value Measurements (continued) 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, convertible debentures and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs. There were no transfers into or out of “Level 3” during the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

As at April 30, 2022, the Company had derivative liabilities of $nil (2021 - $8,519) that was classified as Level 3, which resulted in a loss on change in the fair value of $nil (2021 - $121,974).  

(b)Revenue Recognition  

The Company recognizes revenue from royalties of its oil and gas interests in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).  Under ASC 606, the Company records revenue based on five criteria: (i) identify the contract; (ii) identify separate performance obligations; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price among the performance obligations; and (v) recognize revenues as the performance obligations are satisfied.

As the Company derives its revenues from its royalty interests, it recognizes revenue based on the monthly royalties it receives from the specific operator or broker of each oil and gas interest held by the Company.  The Company’s performance obligation is considered complete once the monthly production revenues are calculated and receivable, as the Company is not obligated to perform any additional services to earn its monthly royalty revenue.  

Revenues from royalty properties are recorded under the cash receipts approach as directly received from the remitters’ statement accompanying the revenue check. Since the revenue checks are generally received 30 to 90 days after the production month, the Company accrues for revenue earned but not received by estimating production volumes and product prices.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations

The Company’s right to royalty income does not originate until production occurs and, therefore, is not considered to exist beyond each day’s production. Therefore, there are no remaining performance obligations under any of the Company’s royalty income contracts.

Contract balances

Under the Company’s royalty income contracts, it would have the right to receive royalty income from the producer once production has occurred, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, the Company’s royalty income contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(k)Revenue Recognition (continued) 

Prior-period performance obligations

The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain oil and gas sales may not be received for 30 to 90 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of royalty income to be received based upon the Company’s interest. The Company records the differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for royalties in the quarter that payment is received from the producer. Identified differences between the Company’s revenue estimates and actual revenue received historically have not been significant. For the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue recognized in the reporting period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods was not material. The Company believes that the pricing provisions of its oil and gas contracts are customary in the industry. To the extent actual volumes and prices of oil and natural gas sales are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third parties, the royalties related to expected sales volumes and prices for those properties are estimated and recorded.

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company earned $719,998 (2021 - $48,520) of royalty interest related to its oil and gas properties.  The amounts earned are estimated based on the receipt of the operator’s statements which is on the production statements for each property.  

(b)Stock-based Compensation 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.  

ASC 718 requires company to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method of determining fair value.  This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables.  These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviours.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

(c)Income Taxes  

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

As of April 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

(m)Income Taxes (continued) 

The Company files federal and provincial income tax returns in Canada and federal, state and local income tax returns in the U.S., as applicable. The Company may be subject to a reassessment of federal and provincial income taxes by Canadian tax authorities for a period of three years from the date of the original notice of assessment in respect of any particular taxation year. For Canadian and U.S. income tax returns, the open taxation years range from 2016 to 2020. In certain circumstances, the U.S. federal statute of limitations can reach beyond the standard three year period. U.S. state statutes of limitations for income tax assessment vary from state to state. Tax authorities of Canada and U.S. have not examined any of the Company’s, or its subsidiaries’, income tax returns for the open taxation years noted above.

(d)Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

3.Right-of-Use Operating Lease Asset and Lease Liability 

Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the ROU asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

On March 11, 2021, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with a sublandlord regarding its office at 5750 Genesis Court, Suite 220, Frisco, Texas 75036. The agreement was treated as an operating lease in accordance with ASC 842, Lease, which resulted in initial recognition of right-of-use asset and lease liability of $122,120. The incremental borrowing rate used in the calculation is 18%.

7.Preferred Stock Liability 

Series B Preferred Stock  

On June 13, 2019, the Company designated 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series B. The holders of Series B preferred shares are not entitled to receive dividends except as may be declared by the Board at its sole and absolute discretion. Each Series B preferred share is convertible into common shares according to the following formula: the Stated Value of $1.10 per share of Series B preferred stock divided by the closing price of the Common Stock on the day prior to the conversion. Holders of Series B preferred stock shall not have voting rights.

On June 17, 2019, the Company issued 530,000 shares of Series B preferred stock at a fair value of $583,000 based on the stated value of $1.10 per share, in exchange for the settlement of accounts payable of $266,523, notes payable of $990, accrued interest of $535, and management fees of $33,000. As the Series B shares represent an unconditional obligation that the Company must or may settle in a variable number of its equity shares and the monetary value of the obligation is predominantly based on a fixed monetary amount, the 530,000 shares with a balance of $583,000 is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. During the year ended April 30, 2021, the Company issued 21,441,440 shares of common stock for the conversion of 334,600 shares of Series B preferred stock. During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company issued 15,030,769 common shares for the conversion of 195,400 Series B preferred stock. As of April 30, 2022, the Company had nil (April 30, 2021 – 195,400) shares of Convertible Preferred Series B Stock with a carrying value of $nil (April 30, 2021 - $214,940).

14.Reserve and Related Financial Data - unaudited 

Oil and Gas Reserves

Proved reserves represent quantities of oil and natural gas reserves which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in the future from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations.  Proved developed reserves are proved reserves which can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment, infrastructure, and operating methods.  Proved reserves were estimated in accordance with guidelines established by the SEC, which require that reserve estimates be prepared under existing economic and operating conditions based upon the 12-month unweighted average of the first-day-of-the-month prices.  

The reserves as at April 30, 2022 presented below were audited by MIRE Petroleum Consultants.  Estimates of proved reserves are inherently imprecise and are continually subject to revision based on production history, results of additional exploration and development, price changes, and other factors.  The reserves are located in various fields located in the states of Oklahoma, Louisiana, West Virginia, Colorado, Texas, North Dakota, and Wyoming.  All of the proved reserves are located in the continental United States.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Net Cash Flows

Guidelines prescribed in FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 932 Extractive Industries—Oil and Gas (“ASC Topic 932”), have been followed for computing a standardized measure of future net cash flows and changes therein relating to estimated proved reserves. Future cash inflows are determined by applying prices and costs, including transportation, quality, and basis differentials, to the year-end estimated quantities of oil, natural gas and NGLs to be produced in the future. The resulting future net cash flows are reduced to present value amounts by applying a ten percent annual discount factor.

The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those prescribed by the FASB and the SEC. These assumptions do not necessarily reflect the Company’s expectations of actual revenues to be derived from those reserves, nor their present value. The limitations inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process, as discussed previously, are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations since these reserve quantity estimates are the basis for the valuation process. Reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and estimates of new discoveries and undeveloped locations are more imprecise than estimates of established proved producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.

The following table sets forth the discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves as at April 30, 2021 based on the standardized measure prescribed in ASC Topic 932:

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2022 Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the reasons discussed below.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2022 using the criteria established in " Internal Control - Integrated Framework - 2013" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2022 the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.

1.     We do not have an Audit Committee – While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the management's view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity level control over the Company's financial statement. Currently the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of the Audit Committee and does not include a member that is considered to be independent of management to provide the necessary oversight over management's activities.

2.     We did not maintain appropriate cash controls – As of April 30, 2022, the Company has not maintained sufficient internal controls over financial reporting for the cash process, including failure to segregate cash handling and

24

accounting functions, and did not require dual signature on the Company's bank accounts.  Alternatively, the effects of poor cash controls were mitigated by the fact that the Company had limited transactions in their bank accounts.

3.     We did not implement appropriate information technology controls – As of April 30, 2022, the Company retains copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company's data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.

4.    We do not have sufficient monitoring and review controls with respect to accounting for complex transactions.

5.    We have a lack of sufficient controls over financial reporting and day to day accounting, including oversight, monitoring and review, primarily from limited personnel and segregation of duties.

Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's internal controls.

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of April 30, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation we conducted of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2022, that occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Continuing Remediation Efforts to address deficiencies in Company's Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Once the Company is engaged in a business of merit and has sufficient personnel available, then our Board of Directors, in particular and in connection with the aforementioned deficiencies, will establish the following remediation measures:

1.  Our Board of Directors will nominate an audit committee or a financial expert on our Board of Directors in the next fiscal year.

2.  We will appoint additional personnel to assist with the preparation of the Company's monthly financial reporting, including preparation of the monthly bank reconciliations.

27

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Company does not have an audit committee or an audit committee financial expert (as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K) serving on its Board of Directors. All current members of the Board of Directors lack sufficient financial expertise for overseeing financial reporting responsibilities.  The Company has not yet employed an audit committee financial expert on its Board due to the inability to attract such a person.

The Company intends to establish an audit committee of the board of directors, which will consist of independent directors. The audit committee's duties will be to recommend to the Company's board of directors the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's financial statements and to review the Company's accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of the Company's board of directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors has not adopted a code of ethics due to the fact that we presently only have one director who also serves as the sole executive officer of the Company and the Board of Directors chose not to reduce to writing standards designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct. The Board of Directors believes that the Company's small size and the limited number of personnel who are responsible for its operations make a formal Code of Ethics unnecessary. We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our directors and officers or the number of our employees.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us under Rule 16a-3(e) during the year ended April 30, 202, and the representations made by the reporting persons to us, we believe that during the year ended April 30, 2022 our executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

SUBJECT: VERDE BIO HOLDINGS

SEC RESERVES EVALUATION AS OF MAY 1, 2021

Mr. Cox,

Mire Petroleum Consultants (MPC) has evaluated the oil and gas reserves as of May 1, 2021, for the Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. (VBH) properties in Oklahoma, Louisiana, West Virginia, Colorado, Texas, and Wyoming. Reserves and cash flows were generated for the VBH interests using SEC pricing ($43.44/barrel and $2.22/MMBTU). These estimates were done as per the Securities and Exchange Commission’s standards as described in the December 2008 amendment of Section 210.4-10 of Regulation S – X. This report is provided to VBH to satisfy the requirements contained in Item 1202(a)(8) of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.

As of May 1, 2021, we estimate net proved reserves to be 29,590 barrels of oil and 123,770 MCF of gas. Discounted (10%) net present value of the proved reserves is $895,490.

Total proved, probable and possible reserves were also evaluated.

DISCUSSION

Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. has mineral and royalty interests in several properties across six (6) U.S. states. A total of three hundred and sixty-six (366) reserves cases have been identified and evaluated. These include producing, non-producing and undeveloped wells or leases. A summary of the proved, probable and possible reserves and value is shown in Table 1.

Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. SEC Reserves as of May 1, 2021

Table 1. Verde Bio Holdings reserves and value summary, as of May 1, 2021.

AVAILABLE DATA

Public production data was available for most of the leases through March 2021. Public land maps, well permitting and other well data was available. Revenue checks, assignments and property descriptions were also provided by VBH for most of the properties.

METHOD OF APPRAISAL

The purpose of this report is to estimate oil and gas reserves for Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. using industry standard assumptions and methods. The properties have been evaluated based on future net cash flow or income. This income will accrue to the appraised interest as the wells are produced to their economic limits. The future net income has also been shown discounted at ten (10%) percent to determine its present worth as required by Regulation S - X.

RESERVES EVALUATION

For the cash flow analysis an oil price of $43.44 per barrel and gas price of $2.22 per MMBTU were used. These prices are based on the last twelve-month prices as specified by SEC rules. Local field price differentials were also applied, and average realized prices after differentials are $39.49 per barrel of oil and $2.15 per MMBTU of gas. These prices were held constant (no escalations).

Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. SEC Reserves as of May 1, 2021

Ownership values for the properties were determined from revenue statements, lease and well assignments and other data by MPC. Verde Bio Holdings confirmed these ownership interests.

The estimates shown in this report are for proved, probable and possible reserves. Reserve categorization conveys the relative degree of certainty; reserves subcategorization is based on development and production status. The estimates of reserves and future revenue included herein have not been adjusted for risk.

SUMMARY

Reserves were estimated for the wells and leases by using engineering and geologic methods widely accepted in the industry. For the producing reservoirs, performance methods were used to estimate reserves. For non-producing or undeveloped cases volumetric calculations or analogy to similar reserves or wells was used to estimate reserves. Extrapolations were made of various historical data including operating expenses, production taxes and oil, gas and water production.

MPC have made use of all data, appropriate methods, and procedures that are needed to prepare this report according to SEC regulation S-X Section 210.4-10 as amended on December 2008. All estimates are a function of the quality of the available data and are subject to the existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations in effect at the time of the report. The reserves presented in this report are estimates only and should not be interpreted as being exact amounts. Actual volumes recovered could be higher or lower than estimated.

Not only are our reserves and revenue estimates based on that information, which is currently available, but also our estimates are subject to the uncertainties inherent in the application of judgmental factors in interpreting such information. New regulations could have an adverse effect on the reserves calculated in this report.

Kurt Mire supervised or performed all the relevant technical work during the creation of this report. He is a licensed petroleum engineer and officer of Mire & Associates, Inc. a Texas corporation (DBA Mire Petroleum Consultants). Kurt Mire has a B.S. degree in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. He has over 30 years of experience in creating reserve reports and completing reserves analysis for conventional and unconventional fields in the United States.

Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. SEC Reserves as of May 1, 2021

As of May 1, 2021, we estimate Verde Bio Holdings’ net proved reserves to be 29,590 barrels of oil and 123,770 MCF of gas. Discounted (10%) net present value of the proved reserves is $895,490.

In my opinion, the reserve estimates presented in this report are reasonable and were made with generally accepted engineering and evaluation principles. The Economic Summary Projection tables for total reserves and proved, probable and possible reserves classes are attached.

Notes

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Verde Bio Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 24, 2010. Currently, the Company is in the business of oil and gas exploration and investment.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. The impact on the Company has not been significant but management continues to monitor the situation.

Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,422,146 and used cash of $1,150,005 for operating activities. As at April 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,157,272 and an accumulated deficit of $14,258,891.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing, and generating profitable operations from the Company’s future operations. The Company will continue to rely on equity sales of its common shares in order to continue to fund business operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date these financial statements are issued.  These 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.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

(a)Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The consolidated financial statements are comprised of the records of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, IP Risk Control Inc., a company incorporated in the State of Nevada. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is April 30.

(b)Use of Estimates 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts receivable relating to oil and gas interests which is based on the operator’s production statements, carrying value of oil and gas properties, the useful life, carrying value, and incremental borrowing rate used for right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation, revenue recognition including the calculation of the reserves and the fair value of the reserves for oil and gas interests, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(c)Cash and cash equivalents 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are covered by FDIC deposit insurance for up to $250,000.  As at April 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no items representing cash equivalents.

(d)Accounts Receivable 

Accounts receivable represents amounts receivable with respect to oil and gas royalty revenues. Amounts are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable balance. The Company determines allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical experience and current economic conditions. The Company reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on a regular basis.   

(e)Long-Lived Assets   

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, mineral properties, and purchased intangibles with finite lives (subject to amortization), are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment and ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. The Company’s long-lived assets consist of computer software and some oil and gas properties.

Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Any impairment in value is recognized as an expense in the period when the impairment occurs.   

(f)Property and Equipment 

Property and equipment is comprised of land, equipment, vehicles, and leasehold improvements and are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.  Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their expected useful life, with the exception of land which has an unlimited useful life, as follows:

Vehicles5 years 

Equipment5 years 

Leasehold improvements5 years 

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(g)Royalty Interest in Oil and Gas Properties 

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations.  Under this approach, all acquisition costs incurred for the purposes of acquiring mineral and royalty interests are capitalized into a full cost pool.  Costs associated with general corporate activities are expensed in the period incurred.

Capitalized costs are amortized using the units-of-production method.  Under this method, the provision for depletion is calculated by multiplying total production for the period by a depletion rate.  The depletion rate is determined by dividing the total unamortized cost base by net equivalent proved reserves at the beginning of the period.  

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are excluded from the amortizable cost base until a determination has been made as to the existence of proved reserves.  Unevaluated properties are reviewed periodically to determine whether the costs incurred should be reclassified to the full cost pool and subjected to amortization.  The costs associated with unevaluated properties primarily consist of acquisition costs and capitalized general and administrative costs.  Unevaluated properties are assessed for impairment on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant.  

The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: expectation of future drilling activity; past drilling results and activity; geological and geophysical evaluations; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, the cumulative acquisition costs incurred to date for such property are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to amortization. Sales and abandonments of oil and natural gas properties being amortized are accounted for as adjustments to the full cost pool, with no gain or loss recognized unless the adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves. A significant alteration would not ordinarily be expected to occur upon the sale of reserves involving less than 25% of the reserve quantities of a cost center.

Natural gas volumes are converted to barrels of oil equivalent (Boe) at the rate of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas to one barrel (Bbl) of oil. This convention is not an equivalent price basis and there may be a large difference in value between an equivalent volume of oil versus an equivalent volume of natural gas.

Under the full cost method of accounting, total capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal to the present value of future net revenues from proved reserves, discounted at 10% per annum ("PV-10"), plus the cost of unevaluated properties less related income tax effects (the ceiling limitation). A ceiling limitation is calculated at each reporting period. If total capitalized costs, net of accumulated DD&A and related deferred income taxes are greater than the ceiling limitation, a write-down or impairment of the full cost pool is required. A write-down of the carrying value of the full cost pool is a noncash charge that reduces earnings and impacts equity in the period of occurrence and typically results in lower depletion expense in future periods. Once incurred, a write-down cannot be reversed at a later date. The ceiling limitation calculation is prepared using an unweighted arithmetic average of oil prices ("SEC oil price") and natural gas prices ("SEC gas price") as of the first day of each month for the trailing 12-month period ended April 30, 2022, adjusted by area for energy content, transportation fees and regional price differentials, as required under the guidelines established by the SEC. If applicable, these net wellhead prices would be further adjusted to include the effects of any fixed price arrangements for the sale of oil and natural gas.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(h)Leases 

Right-of-Use Asset

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease which is measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of the right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liability recognized on the commencement or lease standard adoption date. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over a useful life of the underlying asset.

Lease Liability

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognizes the lease liability as measured by the present value of the lease payments over the term of the lease. Fixed lease payments are included in the present value calculation and variable lease payments are expensed as they are incurred. If an interest rate is not explicit in a lease, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate for a period that closely matches the lease term.

The incremental rate of borrowing at the lease commencement date was used to calculate the present value of the lease liability as the implicit interest rate of the lease is not readily determinable. Subsequent to the recognition of the lease liability on the commencement date the lease liability increases through accretion of interest and decreases as lease payments are made. The carrying amount of the lease liability is remeasured if there is a modification in the term of the lease or in fixed payment amounts.

(i)Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share  

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  As of April 30, 2022, the Company had 143,609,408 (2021 – 7,718,600) potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.

(j)  Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 1 – quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(j)Fair Value Measurements (continued) 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, convertible debentures and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs. There were no transfers into or out of “Level 3” during the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

As at April 30, 2022, the Company had derivative liabilities of $nil (2021 - $8,519) that was classified as Level 3, which resulted in a loss on change in the fair value of $nil (2021 - $121,974).  

(b)Revenue Recognition  

The Company recognizes revenue from royalties of its oil and gas interests in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).  Under ASC 606, the Company records revenue based on five criteria: (i) identify the contract; (ii) identify separate performance obligations; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price among the performance obligations; and (v) recognize revenues as the performance obligations are satisfied.

As the Company derives its revenues from its royalty interests, it recognizes revenue based on the monthly royalties it receives from the specific operator or broker of each oil and gas interest held by the Company.  The Company’s performance obligation is considered complete once the monthly production revenues are calculated and receivable, as the Company is not obligated to perform any additional services to earn its monthly royalty revenue.  

Revenues from royalty properties are recorded under the cash receipts approach as directly received from the remitters’ statement accompanying the revenue check. Since the revenue checks are generally received 30 to 90 days after the production month, the Company accrues for revenue earned but not received by estimating production volumes and product prices.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations

The Company’s right to royalty income does not originate until production occurs and, therefore, is not considered to exist beyond each day’s production. Therefore, there are no remaining performance obligations under any of the Company’s royalty income contracts.

Contract balances

Under the Company’s royalty income contracts, it would have the right to receive royalty income from the producer once production has occurred, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, the Company’s royalty income contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(k)Revenue Recognition (continued) 

Prior-period performance obligations

The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain oil and gas sales may not be received for 30 to 90 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of royalty income to be received based upon the Company’s interest. The Company records the differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for royalties in the quarter that payment is received from the producer. Identified differences between the Company’s revenue estimates and actual revenue received historically have not been significant. For the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue recognized in the reporting period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods was not material. The Company believes that the pricing provisions of its oil and gas contracts are customary in the industry. To the extent actual volumes and prices of oil and natural gas sales are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third parties, the royalties related to expected sales volumes and prices for those properties are estimated and recorded.

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company earned $719,998 (2021 - $48,520) of royalty interest related to its oil and gas properties.  The amounts earned are estimated based on the receipt of the operator’s statements which is on the production statements for each property.  

(b)Stock-based Compensation 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.  

ASC 718 requires company to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method of determining fair value.  This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables.  These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviours.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

(c)Income Taxes  

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

As of April 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(m)Income Taxes (continued) 

The Company files federal and provincial income tax returns in Canada and federal, state and local income tax returns in the U.S., as applicable. The Company may be subject to a reassessment of federal and provincial income taxes by Canadian tax authorities for a period of three years from the date of the original notice of assessment in respect of any particular taxation year. For Canadian and U.S. income tax returns, the open taxation years range from 2016 to 2020. In certain circumstances, the U.S. federal statute of limitations can reach beyond the standard three year period. U.S. state statutes of limitations for income tax assessment vary from state to state. Tax authorities of Canada and U.S. have not examined any of the Company’s, or its subsidiaries’, income tax returns for the open taxation years noted above.

(d)Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

3. Right-of-Use Operating Lease Asset and Lease Liability

3.Right-of-Use Operating Lease Asset and Lease Liability 

Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the ROU asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

On March 11, 2021, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with a sublandlord regarding its office at 5750 Genesis Court, Suite 220, Frisco, Texas 75036. The agreement was treated as an operating lease in accordance with ASC 842, Lease, which resulted in initial recognition of right-of-use asset and lease liability of $122,120.

Oil and Gas Reserves

Proved reserves represent quantities of oil and natural gas reserves which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in the future from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations.  Proved developed reserves are proved reserves which can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment, infrastructure, and operating methods.  Proved reserves were estimated in accordance with guidelines established by the SEC, which require that reserve estimates be prepared under existing economic and operating conditions based upon the 12-month unweighted average of the first-day-of-the-month prices.  

The reserves as at April 30, 2022 presented below were audited by MIRE Petroleum Consultants.  Estimates of proved reserves are inherently imprecise and are continually subject to revision based on production history, results of additional exploration and development, price changes, and other factors.  The reserves are located in various fields located in the states of Oklahoma, Louisiana, West Virginia, Colorado, Texas, North Dakota, and Wyoming.  All of the proved reserves are located in the continental United States.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Net Cash Flows

Guidelines prescribed in FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 932 Extractive Industries—Oil and Gas (“ASC Topic 932”), have been followed for computing a standardized measure of future net cash flows and changes therein relating to estimated proved reserves. Future cash inflows are determined by applying prices and costs, including transportation, quality, and basis differentials, to the year-end estimated quantities of oil, natural gas and NGLs to be produced in the future. The resulting future net cash flows are reduced to present value amounts by applying a ten percent annual discount factor.

The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those prescribed by the FASB and the SEC. These assumptions do not necessarily reflect the Company’s expectations of actual revenues to be derived from those reserves, nor their present value. The limitations inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process, as discussed previously, are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations since these reserve quantity estimates are the basis for the valuation process. Reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and estimates of new discoveries and undeveloped locations are more imprecise than estimates of established proved producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.

The following table sets forth the discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves as at April 30, 2021 based on the standardized measure prescribed in ASC Topic 932:

14.Reserve and Related Financial Data – unaudited (continued)

(b)Use of Estimates 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts receivable relating to oil and gas interests which is based on the operator’s production statements, carrying value of oil and gas properties, the useful life, carrying value, and incremental borrowing rate used for right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation, revenue recognition including the calculation of the reserves and the fair value of the reserves for oil and gas interests, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

(e) Long-Lived Assets

(e)Long-Lived Assets   

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, mineral properties, and purchased intangibles with finite lives (subject to amortization), are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment and ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. The Company’s long-lived assets consist of computer software and some oil and gas properties.

Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Any impairment in value is recognized as an expense in the period when the impairment occurs.

Policies

(g) Royalty Interest in Oil and Gas Properties

(g)Royalty Interest in Oil and Gas Properties 

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations.  Under this approach, all acquisition costs incurred for the purposes of acquiring mineral and royalty interests are capitalized into a full cost pool.  Costs associated with general corporate activities are expensed in the period incurred.

Capitalized costs are amortized using the units-of-production method.  Under this method, the provision for depletion is calculated by multiplying total production for the period by a depletion rate.  The depletion rate is determined by dividing the total unamortized cost base by net equivalent proved reserves at the beginning of the period.  

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are excluded from the amortizable cost base until a determination has been made as to the existence of proved reserves.  Unevaluated properties are reviewed periodically to determine whether the costs incurred should be reclassified to the full cost pool and subjected to amortization.  The costs associated with unevaluated properties primarily consist of acquisition costs and capitalized general and administrative costs.  Unevaluated properties are assessed for impairment on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant.  

The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: expectation of future drilling activity; past drilling results and activity; geological and geophysical evaluations; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, the cumulative acquisition costs incurred to date for such property are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to amortization. Sales and abandonments of oil and natural gas properties being amortized are accounted for as adjustments to the full cost pool, with no gain or loss recognized unless the adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves. A significant alteration would not ordinarily be expected to occur upon the sale of reserves involving less than 25% of the reserve quantities of a cost center.

Natural gas volumes are converted to barrels of oil equivalent (Boe) at the rate of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas to one barrel (Bbl) of oil. This convention is not an equivalent price basis and there may be a large difference in value between an equivalent volume of oil versus an equivalent volume of natural gas.

Under the full cost method of accounting, total capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal to the present value of future net revenues from proved reserves, discounted at 10% per annum ("PV-10"), plus the cost of unevaluated properties less related income tax effects (the ceiling limitation). A ceiling limitation is calculated at each reporting period. If total capitalized costs, net of accumulated DD&A and related deferred income taxes are greater than the ceiling limitation, a write-down or impairment of the full cost pool is required. A write-down of the carrying value of the full cost pool is a noncash charge that reduces earnings and impacts equity in the period of occurrence and typically results in lower depletion expense in future periods. Once incurred, a write-down cannot be reversed at a later date. The ceiling limitation calculation is prepared using an unweighted arithmetic average of oil prices ("SEC oil price") and natural gas prices ("SEC gas price") as of the first day of each month for the trailing 12-month period ended April 30, 2022, adjusted by area for energy content, transportation fees and regional price differentials, as required under the guidelines established by the SEC. If applicable, these net wellhead prices would be further adjusted to include the effects of any fixed price arrangements for the sale of oil and natural gas.

(h)Leases 

Right-of-Use Asset

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease which is measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of the right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liability recognized on the commencement or lease standard adoption date. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over a useful life of the underlying asset.

Lease Liability

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognizes the lease liability as measured by the present value of the lease payments over the term of the lease. Fixed lease payments are included in the present value calculation and variable lease payments are expensed as they are incurred. If an interest rate is not explicit in a lease, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate for a period that closely matches the lease term.

The incremental rate of borrowing at the lease commencement date was used to calculate the present value of the lease liability as the implicit interest rate of the lease is not readily determinable. Subsequent to the recognition of the lease liability on the commencement date the lease liability increases through accretion of interest and decreases as lease payments are made. The carrying amount of the lease liability is remeasured if there is a modification in the term of the lease or in fixed payment amounts.

Policies

(i) Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

(i)Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share  

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  As of April 30, 2022, the Company had 143,609,408 (2021 – 7,718,600) potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.

(j) Fair Value Measurements

(j)  Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 1 – quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(j)Fair Value Measurements (continued) 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, convertible debentures and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs. There were no transfers into or out of “Level 3” during the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

As at April 30, 2022, the Company had derivative liabilities of $nil (2021 - $8,519) that was classified as Level 3, which resulted in a loss on change in the fair value of $nil (2021 - $121,974).

Policies

(k) revenue Recognition

(b)Revenue Recognition  

The Company recognizes revenue from royalties of its oil and gas interests in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).  Under ASC 606, the Company records revenue based on five criteria: (i) identify the contract; (ii) identify separate performance obligations; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price among the performance obligations; and (v) recognize revenues as the performance obligations are satisfied.

As the Company derives its revenues from its royalty interests, it recognizes revenue based on the monthly royalties it receives from the specific operator or broker of each oil and gas interest held by the Company.  The Company’s performance obligation is considered complete once the monthly production revenues are calculated and receivable, as the Company is not obligated to perform any additional services to earn its monthly royalty revenue.  

Revenues from royalty properties are recorded under the cash receipts approach as directly received from the remitters’ statement accompanying the revenue check. Since the revenue checks are generally received 30 to 90 days after the production month, the Company accrues for revenue earned but not received by estimating production volumes and product prices.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations

The Company’s right to royalty income does not originate until production occurs and, therefore, is not considered to exist beyond each day’s production. Therefore, there are no remaining performance obligations under any of the Company’s royalty income contracts.

Contract balances

Under the Company’s royalty income contracts, it would have the right to receive royalty income from the producer once production has occurred, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, the Company’s royalty income contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(k)Revenue Recognition (continued) 

Prior-period performance obligations

The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain oil and gas sales may not be received for 30 to 90 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of royalty income to be received based upon the Company’s interest. The Company records the differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for royalties in the quarter that payment is received from the producer. Identified differences between the Company’s revenue estimates and actual revenue received historically have not been significant. For the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue recognized in the reporting period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods was not material. The Company believes that the pricing provisions of its oil and gas contracts are customary in the industry. To the extent actual volumes and prices of oil and natural gas sales are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third parties, the royalties related to expected sales volumes and prices for those properties are estimated and recorded.

During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company earned $719,998 (2021 - $48,520) of royalty interest related to its oil and gas properties.  The amounts earned are estimated based on the receipt of the operator’s statements which is on the production statements for each property.

Policies

(l) Stock-based Compensation

(b)Stock-based Compensation 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.  

ASC 718 requires company to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method of determining fair value.  This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables.  These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviours.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

(m) Income Taxes

(c)Income Taxes  

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

As of April 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(m)Income Taxes (continued) 

The Company files federal and provincial income tax returns in Canada and federal, state and local income tax returns in the U.S., as applicable. The Company may be subject to a reassessment of federal and provincial income taxes by Canadian tax authorities for a period of three years from the date of the original notice of assessment in respect of any particular taxation year. For Canadian and U.S. income tax returns, the open taxation years range from 2016 to 2020. In certain circumstances, the U.S. federal statute of limitations can reach beyond the standard three year period. U.S. state statutes of limitations for income tax assessment vary from state to state. Tax authorities of Canada and U.S. have not examined any of the Company’s, or its subsidiaries’, income tax returns for the open taxation years noted above.
