Income Taxes
 
For the three months ending March 31, 2014, and 2013, the tax provision is approximately 35% and 36%, respectively, of book income before tax. The rate for March 31, 2014 differed slightly from the statutory federal and state rates due primarily to permanent differences in book and taxable income related to the domestic production activities deduction.
 
5.
Related Party Transactions
 
The Company leased office space from the estate of its former president through January 2014 for $2,500 a month. Rent expense for this month-to-month lease was $7,500 for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. Beginning February 1, 2014, the Company no longer rents office space from the estate.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company paid a relative of a Board member $28,000 for petroleum engineering services.

6.
Long-Term Debt

The Company has a line of credit with a bank with a borrowing base of $11,000,000 at March 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013.  The credit line was amended on March 19, 2014 on the substantially identical terms, except that the requirement for a personal guarantee by the former President and CEO was removed, and the maturity date was extended to October 18, 2016. The amount outstanding under this line of credit was $7,240,000 and $6,740,000 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The agreement requires monthly interest-only payments until maturity on October 18, 2016. The line of credit provides for certain financial covenants and ratios which include a current ratio, leverage ratio, and interest coverage ratio requirements.  The Company was in compliance with debt covenants as of March 31, 2014.

7.
Stockholders’ Equity

The Company issued a stock warrant dividend of one warrant per one common share outstanding as of the record date of March 23, 2012.  A total of 7,983,175 warrants were issued and have an exercise price of $4.00.  The warrants are exercisable over 6 years from the record date.  The Company has the right to call the warrants in the future if the market price of the common stock exceeds 150% of the exercise price of the warrant ($6.00).  No warrants were exercised during the three months ending March 31, 2014. The following table summarizes the warrants outstanding at December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014:

Unrealized gains and losses, at fair value, are included on our consolidated balance sheets as current or non-current assets or liabilities based on the anticipated timing of cash settlements under the related contracts.  Changes in the fair value of our commodity derivative contracts are recorded in earnings as they occur and included in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations.  We estimate the fair values of collar contracts based on the present value of the difference in exchange-quoted forward price curves and contractual settlement prices multiplied by notional quantities.  We internally valued the option contracts using industry-standard option pricing models and observable market inputs.  We use our internal valuations to determine the fair values of the contracts that are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets.  Realized gains and losses are also included in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations.

FieldPoint Petroleum Corporation

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties on our commodity derivatives positions and have considered the exposure in our internal valuations.  However, we do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties over the term of the commodity derivatives positions.
 
To estimate the fair value of our commodity derivatives positions, we use market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique.  These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable.  We primarily apply the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and attempt to use the best available information.  We determine the fair value based upon the hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement).  The three levels of fair value hierarchy are as follows:

· Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. At March 31, 2014, we had no Level 1 measurements

· Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.  Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.  These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures.  Our derivatives, which consist of commodity collars, are valued using commodity market data which is derived by combining raw inputs and quantitative models and processes to generate forward curves.  Where observable inputs are available, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, the instrument is categorized in Level 2.  At March 31, 2014, all of our commodity derivatives were valued using Level 2 measurements.

· Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources.  These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.  At March 31, 2014, we had no Level 3 measurements.

9.
Commitments

In January 2014, the Company entered into a two year lease for office space in Austin, Texas. Contractual lease payments are approximately $3,000 per month through January, 2016.

10.
Subsequent Events

On April 1, 2014, the Company began drilling a developmental well in Lee County, Texas, and expect to complete the well in the second quarter of 2014. Net cost to the company to drill and complete the well is approximately $1,000,000. The Company recently elected to drill two additional development wells in Lee County, Texas. Net cost to drill and complete the wells is expected to be $1,000,000 per well.

Subsequent to March 31, 2014, the Company received approximately $22,000 proceeds from the exercise of 5,565 warrants at $4.00 per share.

PART I
Item 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and respective notes thereto, included elsewhere herein.  The information below should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future.  Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of the management of FieldPoint Petroleum Corporation.

General

FieldPoint Petroleum Corporation derives its revenues from its operating activities including sales of oil and natural gas and operating oil and natural gas properties.  The Company's capital for investment in producing oil and natural gas properties has been provided by cash flow from operating activities and from bank financing. The Company categorizes its operating expenses into the categories of production expenses and other expenses.

The Company completed drilling the Ranger 8A 1H well in the Taylor Serbin field in Texas. Production began February 1, 2014. We plan to drill ten to twelve more wells in this same area during 2014. In addition, the Company plans to drill the fourth well in the East Lusk field in New Mexico during the fourth quarter 2014.

Oil and natural gas sales revenues increased 21% or $503,133 to $2,904,215 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 from the comparable 2013 period.  Average oil sales prices increased 4% to $93.02 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 compared to $89.67 for the period ended March 31, 2013.  Average natural gas sales prices increased to $6.72 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 compared to $4.67 for the period ended March 31, 2013.  Increased oil and natural gas production accounted for an increase in revenue of approximately $318,000. Higher commodity prices for oil and natural gas account for an increase in revenue of approximately $185,000.  We anticipate volumes to increase in the coming quarters primarily due to additional drilling in New Mexico expected in the fourth quarter of 2014 and drilling of ten to twelve wells in the Taylor Serbin field in Texas during 2014.

Lease operating expenses increased 24% or $188,739 to $964,468 for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 from the comparable 2013 period.  This was primarily due to increases in costs associated with new field production in 2013, remediation and workover expenses mainly in our operated properties including Taylor Serbin, the Block A49 & Block 6 and Big Muddy fields and workover expenses in the Apache Bromide field initiated by the operator, Quantum Resources. Lifting costs per BOE increased $2.54 to $27.65 for the 2014 period compared to $25.11 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. We anticipate lease operating expenses to increase over the following quarters due to additional remedial repairs and workover expenses in the Taylor Serbin and Apache Bromide fields, as well as additional costs related to production from new wells in Texas and New Mexico.

Depletion and depreciation increased 58% or $302,000 to $825,500 for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 versus $523,500 in the 2013 comparable period.  This was primarily due to the addition of the new East Lusk #3 and the Ranger 8A wells since the prior period.

General and administrative overhead cost increased 103% or $251,556 to $495,552 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 from the three-month period ended March 31, 2013.  This was primarily attributable to increases in professional services and directors’ fees during the 2014 period.  At this time, the Company anticipates general and administrative expenses to remain stable or increase slightly in the coming quarters.

Other expenses, net for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, were $113,709 compared to other expense, net of $59,414 for quarter ended March 31, 2013.  During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the net increase was primarily due to an $8,000 increase in interest expense and a $46,000 unrealized loss on commodity derivatives.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $342,133 for the three month period ended March 31, 2014, as compared to $863,887 of cash flow provided by operating activities in the comparable 2013 period.  The decrease in cash flows from operating activities was primarily due to changes in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and lower net income offset by changes in accounts payable.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $1,609,716 for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 and $104,190 in the comparable 2013 period due to the additions to oil and natural gas properties and equipment in each period.

Cash flow provided by financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 was $500,000 from the draw on our line of credit. Cash flow provided by financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 was $83,600 from the exercise of 20,900 of our outstanding publicly traded common stock purchase warrants at an exercise price of $4.00 per share.

10

We may continue to raise financing through draws from our line of credit which has a borrowing base of $11,000,000.  We anticipate our operating cash flow and other capital resources, including our Citibank revolving credit facility, if needed, will adequately fund planned capital expenditures and other capital uses over the near term.  Based on industry outlook for the remainder of 2014, prices for oil and gas may be lower than the comparable period in 2013.

Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We periodically enter into certain commodity price risk management transactions to manage our exposure to oil and natural gas price volatility.  These transactions may take the form of futures contracts, swaps or options.  All data relating to our derivative positions is presented in accordance with authoritative guidance.  Accordingly, unrealized gains and losses related to the change in fair value of derivative contracts that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as other comprehensive income or loss and such amounts are reclassified to oil and natural gas sales revenues as the associated production occurs.  Derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment are recorded as derivative assets and liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet, and the associated unrealized gains and losses are recorded as current expense or income in the consolidated statement of operations.  While such derivative contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting, management believes these contracts can be utilized as an effective component of commodity price risk management activities.  On March 27, 2014, we entered into a commodity derivative position effective April 1, 2014. The collars have a floor of $87.50 and a ceiling of $105.00 for 200 barrels of oil per day from April 1, 2014, to September 30, 2014. We had a net unrealized loss of $46,209 on commodity derivative transactions during the three month period ending March 31, 2014. We had no unrealized gains or losses on derivative positions during the three month period ending March 31, 2013.

Item 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Principal Executive Officer, Roger D. Bryant, and our Principal Financial Officer, Phillip H. Roberson, have established and are currently maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company.  The disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer conducted a review and evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Report, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and we refer you to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e).

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes to the Company’s system of internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s system of controls over financial reporting.  As part of a continuing effort to improve the Company’s business processes, management is evaluating its internal controls and may update certain controls to accommodate any modifications to its business processes or accounting procedures.

12

c) Limitations of Any Internal Control Design

Our principal executive and financial officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud.  Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive and financial officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so.  There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
