NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 which are included on a Form 10-K filed on September 24, 2020. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods shown have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 have been omitted.

Principles of Consolidation

Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our 100% owned subsidiary, Alpha Energy Texas Operating, LLC. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) all valid transactions are recorded and (3) transactions are recorded in the period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the company for the respective periods being presented.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per share

Net income (loss) per share is provided in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, "Earnings (Loss) per Share". Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive income (loss) per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were 128,578 and 136,446 shares issuable from convertible credit line payable which were considered for their dilutive effects, respectively.

The reconciliation of basic and diluted loss per share is as follows:

	March 31, 2020			March 31, 2019

Basic net income (loss)	$	(105,315	)	$	207,136
Add back: Gain on change in fair value of derivative liabilities		(39,049	)		(449,133	)
Diluted net loss	$	(144,364	)	$	(241,997	)

Basic and dilutive shares:
Weighted average basic shares outstanding		17,851,879			17,297,372
Shares issuable from convertible credit line payable		128,578			136,446
Dilutive shares		17,980,457			17,433,818

Income (loss) per share:
Basic	$	(0.01	)	$	0.01
Diluted	$	(0.01	)	$	(0.01	)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as risks inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, notes payable and convertible notes approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards, in order to determine their effects, if any, on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that no other pronouncements will have a significant effect on its financial statements.

Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements

In 2020, the Company identified errors in account balances in the Form 10Q filed for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The following accounts were deemed to contain errors: accounts payable, derivative liability, common stock, additional paid in capital, operating expenses, interest expense and loss on derivative liabilities. The errors resulted from incorrect recording of stock-based compensation and overstatements of derivative liability and amortization of debt discount.

Based on an analysis of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 250 – “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“ASC 250”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin 108 – “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”), the Company determined that these errors were immaterial to the previously issued financial statements, and as such no restatement was necessary. Correcting prior period financial statements for immaterial errors would not require previously filed reports to be amended. Such correction may be made the next time the registrant files the prior period financial statements. Accordingly, the misstatements were corrected in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019 and consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The tables below summarize previously reported amounts and the adjusted presentation of the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the affected period:

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The Company’s interim unaudited financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company does not have any cash or other current assets, nor does it have an established ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company received advances from related parties totaling $0 and $23,841 and repaid $0 and $30,875 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The advances from related parties are not convertible, bear no interest and are due on demand. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, a related party paid $459 of expenses on behalf of the Company.

There was $856 and $397 due to related parties as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Chief Financial Officer allows the use of his residence as an office for the Company at no charge.

NOTE 4 – COMMON STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock and 65,000,000 shares of $0.0001par value common stock.

The Board of Directors authorized the Company to sell 750,000 shares of common stock at $1.00 per share to raise working capital.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company sold 18,000 shares of the common stock for total proceeds of $18,000.

The Company compensates each of its directors with 4,000 shares of common stock each month. During each of the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company issued 48,000 shares of common stock valued at $48,000.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company issued 60,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $60,000 for consulting services.

During March 2019, the Company sold 131,000 shares of common stock for $1 per share in a private placement for total proceeds of $131,000.

NOTE 5 – NOTE PAYABLE

On March 30, 2019, the Company executed a promissory note for $50,000 to ZHQ Holdings, LLP (75%) and Pure Oil & Gas, Inc (25%). The due date of the note is April 30, 2019 and has an interest rate of $50 per day. The note is for an escrow payment made directly to Premier Gas Company, LLC to hold the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated January 29, 2019. The note is secured by 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1 per share. As of March 31, 2020, the note is outstanding with accrued interest of $16,550.

NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE CREDIT LINE PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY

On September 1, 2017, the Company entered into a convertible credit line agreement to borrow up to $500,000. On the same date, the outstanding balance on a note payable of $87,366 was exchanged as a draw on the credit line. The loan modification is considered substantial under ASC 470-50. The outstanding balance accrues interest at a rate of 7% per annum and the outstanding balance is convertible to common stock of the Company at the lesser of the close price of the common stock as quoted on the OTCBB on the day interest is due and payable immediately preceding the conversion or $1.50. The Company analyzed the conversion options in the convertible line of credit for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, Derivative and Hedging, and determined that the transaction does qualify for derivative treatment. The Company measured the derivative liability and recorded a debt discount of $87,366 upon initial measurement. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized an additional debt discount of $7,568 and amortized $39,514 of the discount as interest expense leaving an unamortized discount of $17,396 as of December 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company amortized $5,731 of the discount as interest expense leaving an unamortized discount of $11,665 as of March 31, 2020. See discussion of derivative liability in Note 7 – Derivative Liability.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $2,000 and $4,000 in cash payment to the outstanding balance on the credit line, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q which address activities, events or developments which the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof); finding suitable merger or acquisition candidates; expansion and growth of the Company's business and operations; and other such matters are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results or developments will conform with the Company's expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including general economic, market and business conditions; the business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by the Company; changes in laws or regulation; and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of the Company.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of predictive, future-tense or forward-looking terminology, such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "estimates," "plans," "may," "will," or similar terms. These statements appear in a number of places in this Filing and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company, and its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i) trends affecting the Company's financial condition or results of operations for its limited history; (ii) the Company's business and growth strategies; and, (iii) the Company's financing plans. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors that could adversely affect actual results and performance include, but are not limited to, the Company's limited operating history, potential fluctuations in quarterly operating results and expenses, government regulation, technological change and competition.

Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequence to or effects on the Company or its business or operations. The Company assumes no obligations to update any such forward-looking statements.

General Business Development

The Company was formed on September 26, 2013 in the State of Colorado.

Business Strategy

The Company was incorporated in September 2013. Our business model is to purchase or trade stock for oil and gas properties to be held as long-term assets. Oil and gas commodity pricing has stabilized under the current economic market conditions bringing the U.S. to become one of the top the number one producers in the world. The momentum to drill using enhanced drilling technology in previously undeveloped areas assures the continued value of these properties. Our lean operating structure positions us well to compete in this very competitive market. Our strategy is to acquire producing properties that the Company can operate which have proven un-drilled locations available for further development. At this time the Company is reviewing several properties but have no contractual commitments to date. Our management’s years of experience and knowledge of the oil and gas industry leads us to believe that there are an abundance of good drilling prospects available that have either been overlooked or are not big enough for the larger companies. In the process of identifying these drilling prospects, the Company will utilize the expertise of existing management and employ the highest caliber contract engineering firms available to further evaluate the properties. To qualify for acquisition, the calculated cash flow after taxes and operating expenses, including ten percent (10%) interest per year, will recover the acquisition cost in 22 to 30 months. The cash flow calculation will be based conservatively on $51 per barrel of oil and $2.89 per MCF of gas. In addition, the selection criteria will require the life of current producing wells to be 7 years or longer and the field must have a minimum total life of 15 years.

The company is actively pursuing acquisition of additional properties in Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2020, we had total current assets of $0 and total current liabilities of $605,932.

The Company used $16,000 of cash in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $111,831 used in operations during the same period in 2019. Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was mainly comprised of our $105,315 net loss during the period, adjusted by a non-cash charges of $39,049 for gain on change in fair value of derivative liabilities, stock-based compensation of $48,000, amortization of debt discounts of $5,731, asset retirement obligations expense of $19 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $74,614. Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was mainly comprised of our $207,136 net income during the period, adjusted by a non-cash charges of $449,133 for gain on change in fair value of derivative liabilities, $108,000 of stock compensation, amortization of debt discounts of $9,879, asset retirement obligations expense of $19 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $12,268.

The Company generated cash of $16,000 from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 which consisted of $18,000 in proceeds from the sale of common stock and $2,000 payment on convertible credit line payable - related party. The Company generated cash of $119,966 from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 which consisted of proceeds of sale of common stock of $131,000, proceeds from related party advances of $23,841 offset by repayments on short term advances - related party of $30,875 and repayment on convertible credit line payable – related party of $4,000.

Going Concern

The future of our company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock, if necessary. See Note 2 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Results of Operations

We generated revenues of $346 and $2,270 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Total operating expenses were $131,301 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $228,757 during the same period in 2019. The decrease in operating expenses were due to a decrease in consulting fees of $73,093 and professional fees of $13,908.

Off-Balance sheet arrangements

As of March 31, 2020, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Our accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our audited financial statements for 2019 appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide information required by this Item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”), as of March 31, 2020, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), who concluded, that because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2020.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our first quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On July 22, 2020, the Company filed a lawsuit in Texas State Court against its predecessor auditor, LBB & Associates and Vine Advisors, LLP, and their principal, Carlos Lopez, seeking damages up to $1,000,000.

In March 6, 2020, the Company was informed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission that (a) Lopez and LBB were investigated by the SEC through an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings; (b) Lopez and LBB ultimately agreed to the imposition of remedial sanctions against them by the SEC; and (c) Lopez had been suspended from appearing or practicing before the SEC for a period of at least two years (the “Suspension Order”) beginning on February 6, 2020. A copy of the Suspension Order can be found on the SEC’s website.

The Suspension Order finds, among other things, that:

	●	For three consecutive years, Lopez and LBB “engaged in a pattern of improper professional conduct as auditors”;
	●	Lopez failed to exercise due professional care in performing his audit work; and
	●	Lopez and LBB committed “multiple instances of highly unreasonable conduct in circumstances that warranted heightened scrutiny.”

The Suspension Order and the predecessor auditor’s failure to disclose it or the SEC investigation when it was occurring has had very damaging repercussions for the Company. Due to the misdeeds of Lopez, LBB, and Vine, the Company was obligated to spend substantial amounts to re-audit the filings that Lopez, LBB, and Vine handled. Also, the Company was obligated to undertake this re-audit for 2018 since it can no longer trust the work of someone who admittedly “engaged in a pattern of improper professional conduct” and committed “multiple instances of highly unreasonable conduct in circumstances that warranted heightened scrutiny.”

Upon discovery of the misdeeds of Lopez, LBB, and Vine, the Company notified the predecessor auditors of their claims. The predecessor auditors have ignored the Company’s communications and failed to respond or even return the Company’s work papers and property.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in the risk factors set forth in the Company’s Form 10K for the period ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
