Basis of presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary, which are of a normal and recurring nature, for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and of the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025 or for any other interim period or for any other future fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes included in Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024.

Going concern of operations

Going concern of operations

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception in the amount of $18,018,373, has a working capital deficiency of $5,934,270 as of December 31, 2024 and has not yet achieved profitable operations. The Company requires equity or debt financings to fund its continuing operations, which it has been unable to secure in sufficient amounts to date, and there can be no assurances that it will be able to do so in the future. The aforementioned factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The Company expects to raise additional funds through equity and debt financings. There is no assurance that such financing will be available in the future. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company received additional debt subscription proceeds of $601,601 to complete a convertible debenture financing with total gross proceeds of $4,276,389. The $1,365,000 convertible debentures that matured on September 12, 2024 and accrued interest of $59,788 were retired in exchange for the new convertible debenture units. Management believes that these actions provide a path for the Company to continue as a going concern subject to its continued ability to raise funds to maintain its operations and manage its working capital deficiency.

 

In view of these matters, continuation as a going concern is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financial requirements, raise additional capital, and the success of its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and bases its estimates on experience, current and expected future conditions, third-party evaluations and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances.

 

Significant estimates have been used by management in conjunction with the following: (i) the fair value of assets when determining the existence of impairment factors and the amount of impairment, if any; (ii) the costs of site restoration when determining decommissioning liabilities; (iii) the useful lives of assets for the purposes of depletion and depreciation; (iv) petroleum and natural gas reserves; and (v) share-based payments. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

New accounting standards

New accounting standards

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023 - 07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. This update requires public entities to disclose significant expenses for reportable segments in both interim and in annual reporting periods, while entities with only a single reportable segment must now provide all segment disclosures required both in ASC 280 and under the amendments in ASU 2023-07. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and has begun evaluating disclosure presentation alternatives.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023 - 09, Income Taxes (Topic740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The standard requires companies to disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation table and the amount of income taxes paid per major jurisdiction. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and has begun evaluating disclosure presentation alternatives.
