BMB MUNAI, INC.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2013


 
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

BMB Munai, Inc., (the “Company” or “BMB Munai”) is a Nevada corporation that originally incorporated in the State of Utah in 1981. From 2003 to 2011 the Company’s business activities focused on oil and natural gas exploration and production in the Republic of Kazakhstan (also referred to herein as the “ROK” or “Kazakhstan”) through its wholly-owned subsidiary Emir Oil LLP.

On September 19, 2011 the Company completed the sale of all of its interests in Emir Oil (the “Sale”).
 
Since September 2011 the Company’s principal business operations have been focused on satisfying its post-closing undertakings in connection with the Sale, which were completed in September 2012, winding down its operations in Kazakhstan and exploring opportunities to exploit the expertise of the Company’s management staff and return value to the Company’s stockholders.

The Company does not anticipate generating revenue until such time as it is able to identify and exploit new business opportunities. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to identify or exploit any new business opportunity, or that the Company will have the funds then available to it that will enable it to seek to take advantage of any such opportunity. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Going concern

As a result of the Sale, the Company has no subsidiaries and no continuing operations that generate positive cash flow, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Subsequent event

The Company’s management has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and has found no subsequent events to report.

Use of estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates and affect the results reported in these unaudited condensed financial statements.

BMB MUNAI, INC.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2013


Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions.

Functional currency

The Company makes its principal investing and financing transactions in U.S. Dollars and the U.S. Dollar is therefore its functional currency.

Foreign currency translation

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are reported at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. Dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Any gains or losses arising from a change in exchange rates subsequent to the date of the transaction are included as an exchange gain or loss in the unaudited condensed statements of operations.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and marketable securities purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates their carrying amounts due to their short-term maturity.

Other fixed assets

Other fixed assets are valued at historical cost adjusted for impairment loss less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes all direct costs associated with the acquisition of the fixed assets.

Depreciation of other fixed assets is calculated using the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives:

Vehicles
3-5 years
Office equipment
3-5 years
Software
3-4 years
Furniture and fixtures
2-7 years
 
7
 
 

 
 
BMB MUNAI, INC.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2013
 
 
 
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized as leasehold improvements, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the lease.

Other fixed assets of the Company are evaluated annually for impairment. If the sum of expected undiscounted cash flows is less than net book value, unamortized costs of other fixed assets will be reduced to a fair value. Based on the Company’s analysis at September 30, 2013 no impairment of other assets is necessary.

Income (Loss) per common share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if all contracts to issue common stock were converted into common stock, except for those that are anti-dilutive.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements are expected to cause a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or the results of operations.


NOTE 3 – CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

As of September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 cash and cash equivalents included deposits in U.S. banks in the amount of $9,174,231 and $10,463,531, respectively. The Company’s deposits in U.S. banks are in non-FDIC insured accounts which means they are not insured to the $250,000 FDIC insurance limit. To mitigate this risk, the Company has placed all of its U.S. deposits in a money market account that invests in U.S. Government backed securities.

As of September 30, 2013 the Company placed $6,474,801 in an investment account. The Company can convert this amount into cash in a short period of time not exceeding one week.

Shareholder distributions

On October 24, 2011 the Company made an initial cash distribution of $1.04 per share to common stockholders of record on October 10, 2011 from the proceeds of the Sale. The total amount calculated for this distribution to common stockholders was $58,019,056.

On October 30, 2012 the Company declared and made a second cash distribution of $0.30 per share to common stockholders of record on October 15, 2012 following the completion of its post-closing obligations in connection with the Sale. The total amount calculated for this distribution to common stockholders was $16,736,266.

As of September 30, 2013 the amount paid from the first distribution was $51,346,433 with $6,672,623 payable, and the amount paid from the second distribution was $14,801,523 with $1,934,742 payable. These payables have been accrued and included in deferred distribution payments on the balance sheet.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion is intended to assist you in understanding our results of operations and our present financial condition. Our unaudited condensed financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contain additional information that should be referred to when reviewing this material and this document should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2013.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) that are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management.  For this purpose any statement contained in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking, including, but not limited to, our ability to identify or pursue other opportunities to exploit the expertise of the Company’s management staff and return value to the Company’s stockholders, our results of operations, cash flows, capital resources and liquidity and future actions, intentions, plans, strategies and objectives.  Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “budget,” “plan,” “forecast,” “predict,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “will” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These statements by their nature involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control.  These factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to identify and exploit a new business opportunity, having sufficient funds then available to us to take advantage of any such opportunity, satisfaction of outstanding obligations, costs and expenses, economic conditions, competition, legislative requirements, sufficiency of working capital, capital resources and liquidity and other factors detailed herein and in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings.  Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those indicated.

Forward-looking statements are predictions and not guarantees of future performance or events.  Forward-looking statements are based on current industry, financial and economic information, which we have assessed but which by their nature are dynamic and subject to rapid and possibly abrupt changes.  Our actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied by such forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties associated with our business.  We hereby qualify all our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of their dates and should not be unduly relied upon.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Throughout this report, unless otherwise indicated by the context, references herein to the “Company”, “BMB”, “we”, our” or “us” means BMB Munai, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and any corporate subsidiaries and predecessors.  Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations all references to dollar amounts ($) refers to U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview

As discussed in this report in Note 1 – Description of Business of the notes to our unaudited condensed financial statements accompanying this report, on September 19, 2011 we sold all our interest in our oil and natural gas exploration and production assets with the sale of our wholly-owned subsidiary Emir Oil LLP (the “Sale”).  Since September 2011 we have been working to complete the Sale, wind down our operations in Kazakhstan, and identify new business opportunities that will allow us to take advantage of the expertise of our management staff and return additional value to our stockholders.

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting our results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity and capital resources during the periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and notes to the condensed financial statements accompanying this report.

Results of Operations

Three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Revenue

We did not generate any revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Expenses

The following table presents details of our expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

    For the three months ended
September 30, 2013
    For the three months ended

Total

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $575,105 compared to $1,006,116 during the three months ended September 30, 2012.  General and administrative expenses were lower during the September 30, 2013 period because the level of management services we required from Lakeview International, Inc. (“Lakeview”) was lower in the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 did not change significantly. We anticipate amortization and depreciation expense to remain at or near the same level during upcoming fiscal quarters.

Loss from Operations.  During the three months ended September 30, 2013 we recognized a loss from operations of $604,087 compared to a loss from operations of $1,035,098 during the three months ended September 30, 2012. This decrease in loss from operations during three months ended September 30, 2013 is the result of the 43% decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Total Other Income.  Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 did not change significantly.

Net Loss. For all of the foregoing reasons, during the three months ended September 30, 2013 we incurred a net loss of $603,876 compared to a net loss of $1,034,768 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.  With the Sale, we are no longer generating revenues.  Therefore, we expect to continue to realize net losses in upcoming fiscal quarters.

Six months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2012.

Revenue

We did not generate any revenue during the six months September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Expenses

The following table presents details of our expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

    For the six months ended

Total
 1,148,033

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses during the six months ended September 30, 2013 were $1,090,070 compared to $1,738,194 during the six months ended September 30, 2012.  General and administrative expenses were lower during the September 30, 2013 period because the level of management services we required from Lakeview was lower in the period ended September 30, 2013.
 
12
 
 

 

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation expense for the six months ended September 30, 2013 did not change significantly. We anticipate amortization and depreciation expense to remain at or near the same level during upcoming fiscal periods.

Loss from Operations. During the six months ended September 30, 2013 we recognized a loss from operations of $1,148,033 compared to a loss from operations of $1,796,156 during the six months ended September 30, 2012. This decrease in loss from operations during six months ended September 30, 2013 is the result of the 37% decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Total Other Income. During the six months ended September 30, 2013 we recognized total other income of $820 compared to total other income of $11,074 during the six months ended September 30, 2012. In the period ended September 30, 2012 we incurred $6,845 in other income and $1,498 in interest income related to our operations in Kazakhstan. In the period ended September 30, 2013 we did not incur such income.

Net Loss. For all of the foregoing reasons, during the six months ended September 30, 2013 we incurred a net loss of $1,147,213 compared to a net loss of $1,785,082 for the six months ended September 30, 2012.  With the Sale, we are no longer generating revenues.  Therefore, we expect to continue to realize net losses in upcoming fiscal quarters.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As noted throughout this report, in September 2011 we completed the sale of our oil and natural gas exploration and production assets.  In September 2012 we completed our post-closing obligations in connection with the Sale.  While we plan to continue our efforts to identify new business opportunities that will allow us to capitalize on the expertise of the Company’s management staff and return additional value to our stockholders, we have limited funds remaining to continue such efforts.

We do not currently generate revenue and do not anticipate generating revenue until such time as we are able to identify and exploit a new business opportunity.  No assurance can be given that we will be able to identify or exploit any new business opportunity, or that we will have the funds then available to us to take advantage of any such opportunity.  These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern or to return any additional value to our stockholders.

Cash Flows

During the six months ended September 30, 2013 cash was primarily used to pay for current expenses. See below for additional discussion and analysis of cash flow.

Our principal source of liquidity during the six months ended September 30, 2013 was cash and cash equivalents.  At March 31, 2013 cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $10.5 million. At September 30, 2013 cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $9.2 million. Of this amount $8,607,365 is held for distribution to shareholders who have not yet claimed their distributions pursuant to the first and/or second stockholder distributions as reflected in the table of Contractual Obligations and Contingencies below.
 
Certain operating cash flows are denominated in local currency and are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction. Because of the potential for civil unrest, war and asset expropriation, some or all of these matters, which impact operating cash flow, may affect our ability to meet our short-term cash needs.
