ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
Gulf
Onshore, Inc. (“We” or “the Company”), was incorporated under the
laws of the State of Colorado, on February 29, 1996, as Patriot Holdings,
Inc. On August 26, 1999, the Company changed its name to National
Healthcare Technology, Inc., and commenced a business plan to develop Magkelate,
a patented intravenous drug developed to re-establish normal electrolyte balance
in ischemic tissue and certain other patents for medical instruments and medical
instrument technology. On January 14, 2000, the Company filed its
Form 10SB12G. In 2002, the Company ceased its medical technology
business following the death of Magkelate’s inventor. The Company
conducted no substantial business until 2005.
In
July 2005, the Company acquired Es3, Inc., a Nevada Corporation ("Es3"),
pursuant to the terms of an Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") by and
among the Company, Crown Partners, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Crown
Partners"), Es3, and certain stockholders of Es3 (the "Es3 Stockholders"). Under
the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
capital stock of Es3 in exchange for the issuance of 191,828 shares of the
Company's common stock (adjusted for splits) to the Es3 Stockholders, Crown
Partners and certain consultants. The transactions effected by the Exchange
Agreement were accounted for as a reverse merger, and recapitalization. In
addition, the Company changed its accounting year-end from September 30 to
December 31, which was Es3's accounting year-end. The Company then
commenced business manufacturing and marketing products under the name Special
Stone Surfaces. The Company sold its shares in Es3 in October 2005,
and thereafter conducted no substantial business until 2006.
In April
2006, the Company acquired oil and gas leases in Oklahoma from Summit Oil &
Gas, Inc. in exchange for issuance of common stock, and commenced the business
of oil and gas exploration and production, mineral lease purchasing and all
activities associated with acquiring, operating and maintaining the assets of
such operations. In June 2007, the Company changed its name to
Brighton Oil & Gas, Inc., and converted to a Nevada
corporation. In October 2007, the Company acquired oil and gas leases
in Texas from K & D Equity Investments, Inc. (“K & D”), a Texas
corporation, in a transaction that resulted in K & D acquiring a majority
stake in the Company. The Company also entered into a Line of
Credit Agreement with South Beach Live, Inc., a Florida corporation, to provide
it with working capital of up to $100,000 on a revolving credit line. The
Agreement permitted South Beach the right to repayment on demand, or to convert
amounts owed for shares.
On March
25, 2008 the Company changed its name to Gulf Onshore, Inc. On June 6,
2008, the Company entered into an Asset Acquisition Agreement with K & D to
acquire additional oil and gas leases and a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”)
with South Beach Live, Inc., a Florida corporation, to purchase 100% of the
common shares of Curado Energy Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Curado”).
Curado is registered with the Texas Railroad Commission as an oil and gas well
operator, and is the operator for the Leases. The Company
acquired the Leases into Curado, in exchange for 10,000,000 shares issued to K
& D and a promissory note for $250,000, payable in one year at 10% interest
payable to South Beach. The Company consolidated the operations
of Curado Energy Resources, Inc.
Throughout
3Q and into the beginning of 4Q 2008, declining oil prices and increased
operating costs made continued oil and gas operations unprofitable, and the
Company was continually drawing down on its Line of Credit Agreement with South
Beach. In exchange for concessions from South Beach regarding further cash
advances and future stock conversions, in August 2008, the Company agreed to
grant South Beach a security interest in its Curado shares.
On
October 6, 2008, in the face of further oil price declines and general economic
conditions, the Company and South Beach entered into an Accord and Satisfaction
Agreement under which the Company surrendered its interest in the Putnam “M” oil
and gas lease in Throckmorton Co., Texas in exchange for a complete release on
the Promissory Note and Line of Credit. In addition, the Company
waived any claim on the shares of Curado common stock that secured the
Promissory Note or the assets of Curado. As a result, the Company’s
4Q 2008, financial statements reflect the disposition of Curado and its assets,
and furthermore that the Company has, once again, become a Development Stage
Company seeking a new business partner or acquisition. A Form 8-K
reflecting this transaction was timely filed.

6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not
applicable for smaller reporting companies.
This
report contains 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. When used in this Form 10-K, the words
"anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "project" and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to
certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions including the possibility that the
Company's proposed plan of operation will fail to generate projected revenues.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from
those anticipated, estimated or projected. The Company's actual results could
differ materially from those set forth on the forward looking statements as a
result of the risks set forth in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions
used in making such forward looking statements.
General
The
Company has been engaged in the business of oil and gas exploration and
production, mineral lease purchasing and all activities associated with
acquiring, operating and maintaining the assets of such operations since April.
2006. The Company’s activities in the oil and gas business prior to 3Q 2007,
however, when it undertook a change of management, were desultory, at best; the
Company generated no revenues and recorded a complete impairment of all oil and
gas related assets, effective December 31, 2007. On June 6, 2008, the
Company acquired leases in Throckmorton and Shackelford Co. Texas, and an
operating company, Curado Energy Resources, Inc.. Nearly all of its
revenues during 2008 were generated from its operation of these
leases. Declining oil and gas prices and an inability to obtain
funding for its Re-Work Development Program and additional acquisitions in 3Q
and 4Q 2008 rendered its oil and gas business unprofitable. The
Company divested itself of its oil and gas properties in 4Q 2008 and is
exploring other business opportunities.
Results
for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
Revenue:
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company had revenue of $447,412, vs.
revenue of $12,239 during the year ended December 31, 2007. The
increase in revenue is directly related to the oil and gas lease acquisitions in
June through their former operating company, Curado Energy Resources
(CERI). CERI contributed 81% or $361,405 of the Company’s 2008
revenues in the four months the Company owned CERI. During the fourth
quarter of 2008, the Company had $0 revenues as it no longer has any properties
vs. revenues during the same period of 2007 of $12,239.
Expenses:
Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2008 were -$3,571,943 vs.
$13,952,699 for the year ended December 31, 2007. 2008 expenses
include a one-time non-recurring gain of $6,285,651 due to the voiding of former
Director contracts (see Note 9). In 2008 we incurred an
impairment of $2,400,000 related to acquired oil properties due to writing down
to predecessor cost. Adjusted expenses, not including depreciation
expense of $2,338, were $311,470. Expenses for the year ended
December 31, 2007 include impairment costs of $5,030,000 and related party
professional fee contracts entered into by former Directors of $8,644,000,
therefore, adjusted expenses, not including depreciation of $33, were
$278,666. The adjusted net increase of ($32,804) is mainly related to
increased audit fees of $32,000 due to the acquisition of Curado Energy
Resources.
Operating Profit
(Loss): For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company had a net
operating profit of $3,789,191 vs. a net operating loss of $13,940,460 for the
year ended December 31, 2007. Please see the explanations in Expenses above.
Net Income
(Loss): The net income for the year ended December 31, 2008 was
$3,559,617 vs. a net loss of $15,007,117 for the year ended December 31, 2007,
and a net loss of $49,511,884 for the period January 27, 2005 to December 31,
2008. The increase in the profit is related to the items listed above
(volume and expenses). Adjusting for the one time gain and write-off the Company
would have lost $323,796 during this period.
Plan
of Operation
In
September 2007, the Company appointed new officers and directors who have
significant experience in oil and gas development activities. On
October 19, 2007, the Company issued 50,000,000 shares of restricted stock to
K&D Investments for oil properties in Throckmorton County, Texas
(Walker-Buckler Trust 380-381). The Company recorded the transaction
at fair market value of $5,000,000 and on December 31, 2007, recorded impairment
expense related to the property of $5,000,000 resulting in a net capitalized
amount of $0.
On
October 29, 2007, the Company paid $30,000 to an individual for oil properties
in Throckmorton County, Texas (Putnam M Well). The Company recorded
the transaction at fair market value of $30,000 and on December 31, 2007,
recorded impairment expense related to the property of $30,000 resulting in a
net capitalized amount of $0.
In Q4
2007 and Q1 2008, the Company effected two separate 1:10 reverse share split,
reducing our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock to 1,328,198
(and reducing K & D’s ownership to 500,000 shares). At that time, we also
changed our name to Gulf Onshore, Inc.; our shares now trade on the
Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol GFON. Shortly thereafter, we
moved into larger offices at 4310 Wiley Post Blvd., Ste. 201, Addison,
Texas.
Effective
June 1, 2008, the Company acquired all of the common stock of Curado Energy,
Inc. from South Beach Live, Inc. (“SBL”) in exchange for a $250,000 note.
Contemporaneously, we acquired, through Curado, additional oil and gas leases in
Throckmorton Co. and Shackelford Co., Texas from K & D in exchange for the
issuance of an additional 10,000,000 shares of common stock. As a result of the
transaction, K & D became the owner of approximately 87% of the Company’s
outstanding shares. The Company generated $92,583 in revenues from
these leases in June 2008, comprising a significant portion of its Q2 2008
revenues.
Also in
Q2 2008, the Company contracted to acquire oil and gas leases in Anderson Co.,
Texas from Roboco Oil, Inc. These leases cover approximately 1,000 acres, and
hold two producing wells. The transaction was scheduled to close on September 1,
2008. Under the terms of the contract, the Company was to pay $700,000 for these
leases, comprised of 20,000 shares of common stock and $680,000 cash.
Ultimately, on October 25, 2008 the Company informed ROBOCO that we would not be
going forward with this arrangement due to the declining oil and gas prices and
its inability to arrange suitable financing and the 20,000 shares, valued at
$22,500 were written-off to consulting expenses.
All of
these transactions were covered in timely filed Forms 8-K, and, in accordance
with the representations made therein, SEC-qualified reserve reports the
Throckmorton Co. and Shackelford Co. properties were filed, along with pro-forma
consolidated financial information.
During Q3
2008, the Company continued to implement its Re-Work/Development Plan on its
West Texas properties. In July 2008, the Company entered into a
Consulting Agreement with Parabolic, LLC; the Company paid Parabolic 80,000
shares of common stock (restricted) to provide investor relations and financial
public relations services. In August, 2008, the Company and Roboco
extended the closing date for the Anderson Co., Texas lease acquisition to
October 18, 2008, to permit the Company to further review the status of certain
of the leases; the Company paid Roboco 10,000 shares of common stock
(restricted) for the extension. Also in August 2008, SBL exercised
its rights under its Line of Credit Agreement with the Company, requiring the
issuance of 490,000 shares of common stock in partial satisfaction of amounts
owed to SBL. Subsequently, the Company renegotiated its promissory
note agreement with SBL granting it a security interest in the Curado shares
owned by the Company and consented to SBL’s separate Guarantee Agreement with
Curado, secured by Curado’s assets. In exchange, the Company obtained
SBL’s agreement that it wouldn’t request any further debt conversions at prices
less than $.25 per share until either an Event of Default or
Maturity. All of these transactions were covered in timely
filed Forms 8-K.
Effective
October 31, 2008, the Company and SBL entered into an Accord and Satisfaction
Agreement. Under the terms of the Agreement, South Beach released the
Company from any further obligation under the parties’ $250,000 Promissory Note
in exchange for an assignment of the Company’s interest in a (currently)
non-producing oil well, the Putnam M, located in Throckmorton Co., Texas, and a
surrender of any claim to shares of Curado Energy Resources, Inc., the Company’s
wholly-owned subsidiary, currently held by South Beach under a Security
Agreement. The Company is advised that South Beach has exercised its
rights to these shares and requested re-registration thereof.
The
Company has two subsidiaries, GOI Exploration Technologies, Inc., and Shale Oil,
Inc. subsidiary, both of which have had no transactions since creation, and
therefore have no impact on the financial statements.
We
anticipate that we will have to raise additional capital to fund operations over
the next 12 months. To the extent that we are required to raise
additional funds to acquire properties, and to cover costs of operations,
we intend to do so through additional public or private offerings of debt
or equity securities.
We
currently have no full-time employees.

During
the period ended December 31, 2008, the Company did not issue any
warrants.
As of
December 31, 2008, our executive officers and directors, in the aggregate,
beneficially own approximately 3.4% of our outstanding common stock.
K&D Equity Investments is our single largest shareholder owning 77.6% of our
common stock. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company, impede a
merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving the
Company or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or
otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company, which in turn could have
an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
ITEM
9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURE
There
were no disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure
during the relevant period.
Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
We
carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2008. This
evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of
our chief executive officer / principal executive officer, and chief financial
officer / principal financial officer who concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures are not effective to ensure that all material information
required to be filed in the annual report on Form 10-KSB has been made known to
them.
Disclosure,
controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by in our reports
filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") is
accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar
functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
Based
upon an evaluation conducted for the period ended December 31, 2008, our Chief
Executive and Chief Financial Officer as of December 31, 2008 and as of the date
of this Report, has concluded that as of the end of the periods covered by this
report, we have identified the following material weakness of our internal
controls:
·
|
Reliance
upon independent financial reporting consultants for review of critical
accounting areas and disclosures and material non-standard
transactions.
|
·
|
Lack
of sufficient accounting staff which results in a lack of segregation of
duties necessary for a good system of internal
control.
|
In order
to remedy our existing internal control deficiencies, as our finances allow, we
will hire additional accounting staff.
Management’s Annual Report
on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control
system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America. Our internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the
maintenance records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect
the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and
expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition,
use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on
the financial statements.
Because
of inherent limitations, a system of 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 due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with
the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our
management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal
Control—Integrated Framework at December 31, 2008. Based on its
evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our internal
control over financial reporting was not effective because of limited staff and
a need for a full-time chief financial officer. A material weakness
is a deficiency, or a combination of control 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.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the
Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the
SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual
report.
Changes in Internal Controls
over Financial Reporting
We have
not yet made any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that
occurred during the period covered by this report on Form 10-K that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board
of Directors and Stockholders
Gulf
Onshore, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Gulf Onshore, Inc. (a
Development Stage Company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2008, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity (deficit)
and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008 and for the period from
January 25, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2008 . These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audit.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as
of December 31, 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and its
cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008 and for the period from January
25, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $49,511,884 and
negative working capital at December 31, 2008. These factors raise substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans
concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DECEMBER 31,
2008
1. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Organization and General Description
of Business
Gulf
Onshore, Inc. (“We” or “the Company”), was incorporated under the
laws of the State of Colorado, on February 29, 1996, as Patriot Holdings,
Inc.. On August 26, 1999, the Company changed its name to National
Healthcare Technology, Inc., and commenced a business plan to develop Magkelate,
a patented intravenous drug developed to re-establish normal electrolyte balance
in ischemic tissue and certain other patents for medical instruments and medical
instrument technology. On January 14, 2000, the Company filed its
Form 10SB12G. In 2002, the Company ceased its medical technology
business following the death of Magkelate’s inventor. The Company
conducted no substantial business until 2005.
In
July 2005, the Company acquired Es3, Inc., a Nevada Corporation ("Es3"),
pursuant to the terms of an Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") by and
among the Company, Crown Partners, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Crown
Partners"), Es3, and certain stockholders of Es3 (the "Es3 Stockholders"). Under
the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
capital stock of Es3 in exchange for the issuance of 191,828 shares of the
Company's common stock (adjusted for splits) to the Es3 Stockholders, Crown
Partners and certain consultants. The transactions effected by the Exchange
Agreement were accounted for as a reverse merger, and recapitalization. In
addition, the Company changed its accounting year-end from September 30 to
December 31, which was Es3's accounting year-end. The Company then
commenced business manufacturing and marketing products under the name Special
Stone Surfaces. The Company sold its shares in Es3 in October 2005,
and thereafter conducted no substantial business until 2006,
On April
3, 2006, the Company acquired a group of oil and gas leases in Oklahoma in
exchange for issuance of common stock and commenced the business
of oil and gas exploration and production, mineral lease purchasing
and all activities associated with acquiring, operating and maintaining the
assets of such operations. On June 6, 2007, the Company changed its
name from National Healthcare Technology, Inc., to Gulf Oil & Gas, Inc., and
converted to a Nevada corporation. The Company acquired additional
oil and gas leases during 2007, all for issuance of common stock; in October
2007, the Company acquired leases from K & D Equity Investments, Inc., a
Texas corporation in a transaction that effected a change of control, with K
& D acquiring a majority stake in the Company. The Company
also entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with South Beach Live, Inc., a
Florida corporation, to provide it with working capital of up to $100,000 on a
revolving credit line. The Agreement permitted South Beach the right to
repayment on demand, or to convert amounts owed for shares.
On March
25, 2008 the Company changed its name to Gulf Onshore, Inc. On June 6,
2008, the Company entered into an Asset Acquisition Agreement with K & D to
acquire additional leases (the “Leases”) in exchange for common stock and a
Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with South Beach Live, Inc., a Florida
corporation, to purchase 100% of the common shares of Curado Energy Resources,
Inc., a Texas corporation (“Curado”). Curado is registered with the Texas
Railroad Commission as an oil and gas well operator, and is the operator for the
Leases. The Company acquired the Leases into Curado, in
exchange for shares issued to K & D. The Company
issued South Beach a promissory note for $250,000, payable in 1 year
at 10% interest. The Company consolidated the operations of
Curado Energy Resources, Inc.
Throughout
3Q 2008, declining oil prices and increased operating costs made continued oil
and gas operations on the Leases unprofitable, and the Company was continually
drawing down on its Line of Credit Agreement with South Beach. In exchange for
concessions from South Beach regarding further cash advances and future stock
conversions, in August 2008, the Company agreed to grant South Beach a security
interest in its South Beach shares.
On
October 6, 2008, in the face of further oil price declines and general economic
conditions, the Company and South Beach entered into an Accord and Satisfaction
Agreement under which the Company surrendered its interest in the Putnam “M” oil
and gas lease in Throckmorton Co., Texas in exchange for a complete release on
the Promissory Note and Line of Credit. In addition, the Company
waived any claim on the shares of Curado common stock that secured the
Promissory Note or the assets of Curado. As a result, the Company’s
4Q 2007, financial statements will reflect the disposition of Curado and its
assets, and furthermore that the Company has, once again, become a Development
Stage Company seeking a new business partner or acquisition. A Form
8-K reflecting this transaction was timely filed.
B.
Basis of Presentation
The
Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of
accounting. All intercompany balances and transactions are
eliminated. Investments in subsidiaries are reported using the equity
method. The financial statements include the accounts of Curado
Energy Resources Inc., a former operating subsidiary, Inc., for the period from
June 2008 through September 2008.
Gulf
Onshore, Inc., up until the June 30, 2008 filing has filed as a Development
Stage Company, as defined by SFAS 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development
Stage Enterprises”. The Company no longer is devoting substantially
all of its efforts to establish a new business and has begun principal
operations. Also, the Company has begun to generate significant
revenues, particularly through its former subsidiary, Curado Energy Resources,
Inc
C.
Stock Splits
On March
6, 2008 the Directors of Gulf Onshore, Inc. (the “Company) announced a one for
ten (1:10) stock split (the “Reverse Split”) and a contemporaneous one for ten
(1:10) reduction in the number of the Company’s authorized shares of common
stock, par value $0.001 (the "Common Stock"), in accordance with the procedure
authorized by N.R.S. §78.207. The Directors determined that it would be in the
Company's best interest to effect the Reverse Split and approved this corporate
action by unanimous written consent. The Reverse Split did not require
shareholder approval. All shares referenced, except where otherwise
noted, are net of the Reverse Split.
D. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions
are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are
determined.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash
in hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly
liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or
less.
F.
Long-Lived Assets & Impairment on oil lease investments
Effective
January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS
144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,”
and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting
the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The
Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be
held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses
to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of
impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated
by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a
loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the
fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be
disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values
are reduced for the cost of disposal.
During
the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company had acquired two oil & gas
leases in two separate transactions. One lease was acquired for cash
consideration of $30,000 and the other lease was acquired in exchange of
50,000,000 (pre reverse split of March 1, 2008) shares. The lease was valued at
the fair market value of the shares which was $5,000,000
As of
December 31, 2007, the Company estimated the future cash flows expected to
result from the use and eventual disposition of the two oil & well gas
leases. Based on its review, the Company determined that the carrying value of
the assets is not recoverable and hence the leases were determined to be
impaired as of December 31, 2007. The Company recorded an impairment loss of
$5,030,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007.
In June
2008 the Company acquired eleven oil well leases in a related party transaction
with the majority shareholder, K&D Investments, for 10,000,000
shares. The value of the stock at the time of the transaction was
$2,500,000 and the predecessor cost was $100,000. Therefore, an
impairment of $2,400,000 was recorded related to the transaction and the net
cost recorded on the Company’s balance sheet is $100,000. The Leases
were acquired into Curado Energy Resources, Inc., the operator of the Leases,
which the Company acquired from South Beach Live, Inc., its most significant
creditor.
Throughout
3Q 2007, declining oil prices and increased operating costs made continued oil
and gas operations on the Leases unprofitable, and the Company was continually
drawing down on its Line of Credit Agreement with South Beach. In exchange for
concessions from South Beach regarding further cash advances and future stock
conversions, in August 2007, the Company agreed to grant South Beach a security
interest in its South Beach shares.
On
October 6, 2008, in the face of further oil price declines and general economic
conditions, the Company and South Beach entered into an Accord and Satisfaction
Agreement under which the Company surrendered its interest in the Putnam “M” oil
and gas lease in Throckmorton Co., Texas in exchange for a complete release on
the Promissory Note and Line of Credit. In addition, the Company
waived any claim on the shares of Curado common stock that secured the
Promissory Note or the assets of Curado. As a result, the Company’s
4Q 2007, financial statements will reflect the disposition of Curado and its
assets, and furthermore that the Company has, once again, become a Development
Stage Company seeking a new business partner or acquisition. A Form
8-K reflecting this transaction was timely filed.
G.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of
Financial Instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair
values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the balance
sheet qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair
value.
H. Technology License and
Royalties
The
Company's former principal business activity focused on oil and gas
exploration. We have divested ourselves of all oil and gas
properties and are investigating other business opportunities. We
have no technology licenses or rights to any royalties.
I. Stock-Based
Compensation
In
December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),
‘‘Share-Based Payment’’ (‘‘SFAS 123R’’), which requires the measurement of all
employee share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in
the consolidated statements of operations. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) regarding the SEC’s interpretation
of SFAS 123R and the valuation of share-based payments for public companies. The
Company has adopted SFAS 123R and related FASB Staff Positions (“FSPs”) as of
January 01, 2006 and will recognize stock-based compensation expense using the
modified prospective method.
The Company accounts for income taxes
using the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the
establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future
deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.
Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences
between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes
during the year.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences
and operating loss, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is
established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is "more likely than not"
that the related tax benefits will not be realized.
K. Basic and Diluted Net Earnings
(loss) per Share
The Company adopted the provisions of
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("EPS"). SFAS No. 128 provides for the
calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS includes no
dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could
share in the earnings or losses of the entity. For the periods January 1, 2008
to December 31, 2008 and from inception through December 31, 2008, basic and
diluted loss per share are the same since the calculation of diluted per share
amounts would result in an anti-dilutive calculation.
L.
Development Stage Enterprise
The
Company is a development stage enterprise, as defined in Financial Accounting
Standards Board No.7. The Company did commence significant operations in the
fiscal second quarter of 2008 and generated a total of $447,412 of revenue in
the following four month period. In October 2008, the Company
divested itself of its operating company, Curado Energy Resources, Inc., (see
note xx) and no longer has significant operations. Beginning with the
fiscal fourth quarter of 2008 the Company again became a development stage
company.
M.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June
2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final rules under
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404 (b)”), as amended by
SEC Release No. 33-8760 on December 15, 2006. Commencing with the
Company’s Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 2008, the Company is
required to include a report of management on the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. The internal control report must include a
statement of management’s responsibility for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company; of
management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting as of its year-end and of the framework used by
management to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting.
In June
2008, the SEC approved a one year extension of the compliance data for smaller
public companies to meet the Section 404 (b) auditor attestation requirement of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting on whether it believes that the Company has maintained, in all
material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting.
In 2007,
the FASB issued the following:
-
|
SFAS
No. 141: (Revised 2007), “Business
Combinations”
|
-
|
SFAS
No. 159: “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities”
|
-
|
SFAS
No. 160: “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial
Statements”
|
In 2008,
the FASB issued the following:
-
|
SFAS
No. 161: “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities”
|
-
|
SFAS
No. 162: “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles”
|
-
|
SFAS
No. 163: “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance
Contracts”
|
Management
has reviewed these new standards and believes that they have no material impact
on the financial statements of the Company.
N.
Reclassifications
For
comparative purposes, certain prior period consolidated financial statements
have been reclassified to conform with report classifications of the current
year.
2. GOING
CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going
concern. The Company reported an accumulated deficit of $49,511,884 and had a
stockholder’s deficit of $1,358,504 at December 31, 2008.
In view
of the matters described, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern without a significant infusion of
capital. At December 31, 2008, the Company had no operations. In view
of the matters described, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern without a significant infusion of capital. There
can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing its
plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.
We anticipate that we will have to
raise additional capital to fund operations over the next 12 months. To
the extent that we are required to raise additional funds to acquire properties, and to
cover costs of operations, we intend to do so through additional public or private
offerings of debt or equity securities. There are
no commitments or arrangements for other offerings in place, no guaranties that any such financings would be
forthcoming, or as to the terms of any such financings.
Any future financing
may involve substantial dilution to existing investors. We had been relying on our common stock to pay
third parties for services which has resulted substantial dilution to
existing investors.
3. INCOME
TAXES
Deferred
income taxes are reported using the liability method. Deferred tax assets are
recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are
recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the
differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax
bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the
opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of
the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the
date of enactment. Current year and accumulated deferred tax
benefit at the effective Federal income tax rate of 34% is $17,329,131,and
$17,650,659 respectively and a valuation allowance has been set up for the full
amount because of the unlikelihood that the accumulated deferred tax benefit
will be realized in the future.
At
December 31, 2008, the Company had available federal and state net operating
loss carryforwards amounting to approximately $49,511,884 that are
available to offset future federal and state taxable income and that expire in
various periods through 2028 for federal tax purposes and 2015 for state tax
purposes. No benefit has been recorded for the loss carryforwards,
and utilization in future years may be limited under Sections 382 and 383
of the Internal Revenue Code if significant ownership changes have occurred or
from future tax legislation changes
The following table sets forth the
significant components of the net deferred tax assets for operation in the US as
of December 31, 2008 and 2007.

Employee Options
On
April 3, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized and

of the 2006 Stock Option Plan effective April 3, 2006 (the "Plan"). The Plan is administered
by the duly appointed compensation committee. The Plan is authorized to grant
stock options of up to 2,500,000 shares of the Company's common
stock. At the time a
stock option is granted under the Plan, the compensation committee shall
fix and determine the exercise price and vesting schedules at
which such shares of common stock of the
Company may be acquired. As of December 31, 2008
and December 31, 2007, no options to purchase the Company's common stock have
been granted under
the Plan.
There
were no options outstanding at December 31, 2008.
In
September, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized and approved
the adoption of the 2006-1 Consultants and Employees Service Plan effective
September 7, 2006 (the "Consultants Plan"). The Plan is administered
by the duly appointed compensation committee. The Plan is authorized
to grant stock options and make stock awards of up to 38,000 shares of the
Company's common stock. At the time a
stock option is granted under the Plan, the

On
October 4, 2007, the Company entered into a Letter of Credit agreement with
South Beach Live, Inc. (“South Beach”); Michele Sheriff, a director and
Secretary of the Company, is an officer and director of South
Beach. The line-of-credit has a maximum of $100,000 and
bears interest at 10% per annum, payable quarterly. The amount due at
December 31 2008 was $0 as the balance was converted to stock during the fiscal
third quarter ended September 30, 2008; during the entire year, South Beach
advanced a total of $99,000 to the Company. The Promissory Note has
conversion features that permit South Beach to convert amounts owed at $.10 per
share (post-split) and therefore a deemed dividend of $89,717 was recorded of
which $0 was recorded in the three month period ended December 31,
2008. On June 13, 2008, the Company issued 500,000 shares of its
$.001 par value common stock, and on September 3, 2008 the Company issued
490,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock to South Beach pursuant to
the terms of the Promissory Note. Under the terms of the Note, the
Company was released from all of the principal obligation under the Note in
exchange for issuance of these shares.
On June
6, 2008, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with South
Beach to purchase 100% of the common shares of Curado Energy Resources, Inc., a
Texas corporation (“Curado”). Curado is registered with the Texas Railroad
Commission as an oil and gas well operator, and is the operator for the Leases.
The Company issued South Beach a promissory note for $250,000, payable in 1 year
at 10% interest. The Fair Market Value (“FMV”) of net assets of Curado at the
time of the transaction were $157,040. This generated an amount of
Goodwill of $92,960 which is reflected in the consolidated financial
statements. Also on June 6, 2008, the Company entered into an
Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with K&D Equity Investments,
Inc., a Texas corporation (“K&D”); Jeffrey Joyce, a director and President
of the Company, is an officer of K&D. Under the terms of the Agreement, the

Texas Gulf paid K&D 10,000,000 shares of its $.001 par value
common stock for the Leases.
In

in exchange for an assignment of the Company’s interest in a (currently)
non-producing oil well, the Putnam M, located in Throckmorton Co., Texas, and a
surrender of any claim to shares of Curado Energy Resources, Inc., the Company’s
wholly-owned subsidiary, currently held by South Beach under a Security
Agreement. The Company is advised that South Beach has exercised its
rights to these shares and requested re-registration thereof.
On March
25, 2009 Summitt Oil & Gas, Inc. (SUMMITT) and 364 Melissa, Ltd. (MELISSA)
entered into a purchase and sale agreement whereas SUMMITT agreed to
assign its rights with respect to debt of $814,742 plus accrued
interest and to sell 400,000 shares of restricted stock for a total of
$50,000. The debt comprises the Secured Convertible Note issued on
January 5, 2007, in the amount of $650,000, further advances of $164,742 (total
$814,742) and accrued interest of $136,346.
The
Company is periodically involved in legal actions and claims that arise as a
result of events that occur in the normal course of operations. The Company is
not currently aware of any formal legal proceedings or claims that the Company
believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
The
Company currently leases office space at 4310 Wiley Post Road, Addison, Texas
75001. The lease is a one year lease for $1,000 per month and expires on May 31,
2009. The Company is not committed to any additional lease
obligations.
The
Company had a collection notice for $87,183 related to legal billings in 2006
that had not been booked. The amount was recorded in the third
quarter of 2007. The billings were related to acquisition work that
was never completed. The Company contends that the agreement was not
with Gulf Onshore, Inc. but with a potential acquirer and therefore believes
that the accrual is not necessary. .
On
December 19, 2006, Empire Relations Group Inc. (“Empire”) filed an arbitration
claim against the Company in connection with a consulting agreement entered into
by and between the Company and Empire on September 28, 2006. An arbitration
award in the amount of $13,000 was issued against the Company on March 9, 2007,
which also provided for interest at the rate of nine percent per annum,
commencing 30 days after the date of the award and continuing until paid in
full. The amount has been accrued in the accompanying financials.
Included
in “Accounts payable” on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008,
the Company has payables totaling $250,000 to two former directors and one
attorney, that were incurred in 2006 and 2005, respectively.
·
|
The
attorney represented a former related party when it was in negotiations to
acquire the Company in 2005. The Company’s position is that
this is not its liability as it did not contract the attorney and will
pursue a legal opinion in 2009 to reverse the
liability.
|
·
|
The
former directors were awarded severance agreements in June 2006 shortly
before resigning from the Company. The severance and other fees
totaled $81,250 for each director for a total of $162,500. The
severance was not immediately paid and there has been no correspondence
concerning payment since they resigned. The states statute of
limitations expires in June 2010 and the Company, at that time, will
accordingly adjust the liabilities to $0 if no demand is
received.
|
Included
in “Accounts payable” on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008,
the Company also has payables totaling $70,000 to various vendors incurred in
2005 through 2007.
·
|
There
is $30,000 balance to a former related party that has not been
resolved. This liability was incurred in 2005 and there has
been no correspondence with the vendor since the signing of the contract
and unless the vendor contacts the Company, we will accordingly adjust the
liability to $0 in compliance with the state statutes of limitations of
four years, in October of 2009.
|
·
|
There
is $12,175 to a former consultant that is unresolved. This
liability was incurred in 2005 and there has been no correspondence with
the vendor since the liability was incurred. In the event the
vendor does not contact the Company, we will accordingly adjust the
liability to $0 in compliance with the state statutes of limitations of
four years, in December of 2009.
|
·
|
There
is approximately $28,000 of other smaller and aged payables that the
Company will also write-off in future periods using the applicable stature
of limitations as a guide.

The
Company is periodically involved in legal actions and claims that arise as a
result of events that occur in the normal course of operations. The Company is
not currently aware of any other formal legal proceedings or claims that the
Company believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
NOTE 9 –
EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT
On March
21, 2008 the Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interest of
the Company and its shareholders to void the contracts of two former directors
and extinguish the associated liability and related accrued payroll
taxes. The contracts originated in 2006 and called for the issuance
of restricted common stock in the amount of $5,000,000. During 2006 a
liability for $5,000,000 and $1,285,651 of related accrued payroll taxes was
recorded. Accordingly, during the twelve months ended December 31,
2008, management has recorded a nonrecurring gain in the amount of
$6,285,651.
NOTE
10 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS
|
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurement. SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for our financial assets and
liabilities on January 1, 2008. The FASB delayed the effective date of SFAS
157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those
that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a
recurring basis (at least annually) to fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2008.
SFAS
157’s valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs.
Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources,
while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. The Standard
classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:
Level 1
Inputs – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2
Inputs – 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 whose inputs are observable or whose significant value
drivers are observable.
Level 3
Inputs – Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.
As of
December 31, 2008, the Company did not have any instruments subject to valuation
under SFAS 157.
