Buckingham Exploration Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1.

Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

     

Buckingham Exploration Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 4, 2006. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities. The Company’s principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties.

     

On August 9, 2010, the Company incorporated 0887717 B.C. Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary in British Columbia, Canada.

     
2.

Going Concern

     

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated revenues since inception and has not paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at November 30, 2012, the Company has working capital of $188,554 and an accumulated deficit of $8,869,027. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

     

As at November 30, 2012, the Company had $139,211 cash in the bank. The Company requires a minimum of $200,000 to proceed with their plan of operations over the next twelve months. If they achieve less than the full amount of financing that they require they will scale back planned exploration activities and day to day operations in order to reduce exploration expenses and general and administrative expenses to a level appropriate to the financial resources available. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds to pay the expected operating expenses for the next twelve months.

     
3.

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

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

The statements in this quarterly report that are not reported financial results or other historical information are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. These statements appear in a number of different places in this report and can be identified by words such as “estimates”, “projects”, “expects”, “intends”, “believes”, “plans”, or their negatives or other comparable words. Also look for discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding our business plans and availability of financing for our business.

You are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees and may involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements due to risks facing us or due to actual facts differing from the assumptions underlying our estimates. Some of these risks and assumptions include those set forth in reports and other documents we have filed with or furnished to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We advise you that these cautionary remarks expressly qualify in their entirety all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf. Unless required by law, we do not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements based on unanticipated events or changed expectations. However, you should carefully review the reports and other documents we file from time to time with the SEC.

Presentation of Information

As used in this quarterly report, the terms "we", "us", "our" and the “Company” mean Buckingham Exploration Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise.

All dollar amounts in this quarterly report refer to US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Overview

We were incorporated as a Nevada company on April 4, 2006. We have been engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties since our inception. We have not generated any revenues and have incurred losses since inception.

We currently own a 100% interest in the Dome mineral properties, located in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. In addition, we own a 100% interest in two mineral properties (known as the Byng and Tramp claims) also located in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. We owned an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Lady Ermalina mineral properties, located in the Province of British Columbia, Canada, which has expired. As the Byng and Tramp claims are located adjacent to the Lady Ermalina claims, we plan to dispose of our interest in these properties going forward. We have conducted limited exploration work on our mineral properties and none of our properties has been determined to contain any mineral resources or reserves of any kind.

We continue our advanced negotiations to acquire a gold exploration project in Indonesia, and are also reviewing what we believe to be opportunities with potential in Peru, South America through our strategic alliance with ExploAndes S.A.C. (“ExploAndes”) as described below.

4


We have completed initial due diligence on the project in Indonesia and continue to negotiate terms. In addition, we continue to investigate the potential acquisition of a near-term coal producing asset in a nearby region of Indonesia. We have agreed to initial terms with a reputable in-country mining services company to assist in the exploration and development of mineral properties in Indonesia, should we decide to proceed and enter into formal definitive agreements to acquire the properties.

We have also entered a strategic alliance with Mining Plus Pty Ltd (“Mining Plus”), a leading firm of mining and geoscience consultants with offices in Australia, Canada and Peru, to assist in the identification, assessment and development of projects and this has resulted in our being able to quickly assess the potential of the gold project in Indonesia. We expect the alliance with Mining Plus to lead to other potential opportunities in line with our strategy.

Via the strategic alliance with Mining Plus, we have ready access to over 50 seasoned mining industry professionals to assist in the potential development of projects with the emphasis on creating early cash flow to enable our company to consider other corporate opportunities. We are also continuing discussions in relation to other assets in Indonesia and elsewhere that present near term cash-flow opportunities.

We recently entered into a strategic alliance with ExploAndes, a leading firm of geology consultants and project logistics managers located in Peru, to assist in the identification, assessment and development of projects in South America. ExploAndes has a proven track record of delivering professional services to the South American mining industry from mineral project review and assessment to project management and we expect this strategic alliance to also lead to potential opportunities in line with our strategy. As noted above, we are currently reviewing certain projects with ExploAndes.

In September 2012, Christopher Robin Relph resigned as a director and the Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of our company. We appointed Simon Eley, our current President and Chief Executive Officer, as interim Chief Financial Officer. In December 2012, we appointed Allister Blyth as our Chief Financial Officer. In line with our plans, we expect to appoint additional directors and officers to manage our growth going forward.

See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2012 for more information regarding our business.

Our plan of operations for the next 12 months is to continue to seek out, acquire, explore and potentially develop projects with an emphasis on creating early cash flow for our business, whether by way of acquisition of full ownership, joint venture or other acceptable structure. We also plan to dispose of the Byng and Tramp claims and may conduct a small exploration project on our Dome mineral claims. We anticipate we will require approximately $5 million to carry out our plans over the next 12 months. As at November 30, 2012, we had cash of $139,211 and working capital of $188,554 and will require significant financing to pursue our exploration plans. There can be no assurance that we will obtain the required financing, on terms acceptable to us or at all. In the event we are unable to obtain the required financing, our business may fail. An investment in our securities involves significant risks and you could lose your entire investment.

Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition for the three and six months ended November 30, 2012 should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report, as well as our most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2012 filed with the SEC.

Three Months Ended November 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended November 30, 2011

Lack of Revenues

We have earned no revenues and have sustained operational losses since our inception on April 4, 2006 to November 30, 2012. As of November 30, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $8, 869,027. We anticipate that we will not earn any revenues during the current fiscal year as we are an exploration stage company.

Our total expenses decreased to $53,054 for the three months ended November 30, 2012 from $219,803 for the three months ended November 30, 2011 mainly due to lower general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased to $35,546 in the current period from $171,697 in the prior period, primarily resulting from reduced due diligence expenses relating to potential acquisitions of mineral property interests in the current period. Professional fees decreased to $10,402 in the current period from $17,044 in the prior period due to decreased activity.

Net Loss

For the three months ended November 30, 2012, we recognized a net loss of $53,054, compared to $219,803 for the three months ended November 30, 2011.

Our total expenses decreased to $240,557 for the six months ended November 30, 2012 from $283,005 for the six months ended November 30, 2011 mainly due to lower general and administrative expenses.

We have funded our operations primarily by a combination of private placements, advances from related parties and loans. From April 4, 2006 (date of inception) to November 30, 2012, financing activities provided cash of $5,599,397, primarily from the sale of our common stock and loans.

Our plan of operations for the next 12 months is to continue to seek out, acquire, explore and potentially develop projects with an emphasis on creating early cash flow for our business, whether by way of acquisition of full ownership, joint venture or other acceptable structure. We also plan to dispose of the Byng and Tramp claims and may conduct a small exploration project on our Dome mineral claims. We anticipate we will require approximately $5 million to carry out our plans over the next 12 months. As at November 30, 2012, we had cash of $139,211 and working capital of $188,554 and will require significant financing to pursue our exploration plans.

There can be no assurance that we will obtain any additional financing, on terms acceptable to us or at all. In the event we are unable to obtain the required financing, our business may fail. An investment in our securities involves significant risks and you could lose your entire investment.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Going Concern

Our consolidated financial statements for the period ended November 30, 2012 have been prepared on a going concern basis and Note 2 to the statements identifies issues that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We have not generated any revenues, have achieved losses since our inception, and rely upon the sale of our common stock and loans from related and other parties to fund our operations. We do not anticipate generating any revenues in the foreseeable future, and if we are unable to raise equity or secure alternative financing, we may not be able to pursue our plans and our business may fail.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROL AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this report, an evaluation was carried out by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of November 30, 2012. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

8


Based on that evaluation, and the material weaknesses outlined below, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information may not be accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, 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. Based on the assessment of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2012, the following significant deficiencies were identified:

1. Lack of proper segregation of duties due to limited personnel.

2. Lack of a formal review process that includes multiple levels of review, resulting in adjustments related to common stock, unrecorded liabilities and share based compensation.

Management is currently evaluating remediation plans for the above control deficiencies.

In light of these control deficiencies, management concluded that there is 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 disclosure controls or internal controls.

Changes in Internal Control

During the quarter ended November 30, 2012, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
