VIKING INVESTMENTS GROUP, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts expressed in US dollars)


 

Note 1

Nature of Business and Going Concern

 

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on May 3, 1989, as Sparta Ventures Corp. and remained inactive until June 27, 1998. After several name changes, the Company merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary, SinoCubate, Inc., which remained the surviving entity of the merger. SinoCubate, Inc. was formed in the State of Nevada on September 11, 2008. The merger resulted in a change of name of the Company from Synthenol Inc. to SinoCubate, Inc., and a change in the state of incorporation of the Company from Florida to Nevada. On June 13, 2012, the Company changed its name to Viking Investments Group, Inc., and the Company’s ticker symbol was changed to “VKIN.”

  

The Company’s business plan is to provide professional advisory and consulting services to companies undergoing or anticipating periods of rapid growth, significant change or ownership transition, and when justified, staffing, financing, and/or providing operational support to such companies. Target companies must have superior management, intimate knowledge of their particular industry and a sound business plan, along with a desire and receptiveness for specific expertise to advance the company's business objectives. Viking’s primary focus is directed toward North America, targeting various industries. Viking targets under-valued businesses with realistic appreciation potential and a defined exit strategy.

 

Viking Investments is neither an underwriter as the term is defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, nor an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940. Viking Investments is not an investment adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Viking Investments is not registered with FINRA or SIPC.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had a net loss of $168,932 and $200,407 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company had a working capital deficiency in the amount of $555,447 as of March 31, 2015. The Company has accumulated a shareholders’ deficiency of $71,425 as at March 31, 2015. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances; however there is no assurance of additional funding being available. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

 

Note 2

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and the following notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

 
7

 

b) Basis of Consolidation

 

The financial statements presented herein reflect the consolidated financial results of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Viking Investments Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. 

 

c) Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s actual results could vary materially from management’s estimates and assumptions. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the determination of expected tax rates for future income tax recoveries, stock-based compensation and impairment of long-term investment.

 

d) Financial Instruments

 

ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 820-10, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for other receivables, other payable, accrued liabilities, short term loan and due to director each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

 

·

Level 1: inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

     
 

·

Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

     
 

·

Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2015 are classified below based on the three fair value hierarchy described above:

 

    Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets     Significant Other Observable Inputs     Significant Unobservable Inputs     Total Gains

e) Cash

 

Cash includes bank deposits and cash on hand. 

 

f) Loss per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and, adjusted by any effects of warrants and options outstanding, if dilutive, that may add to the number of common shares during the period. There were no common stock equivalent shares outstanding at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, that have been included in the diluted loss per share calculation as the effects would have been anti-dilutive.

 

g) Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues from contracts for consulting services with fees based on time and materials are recognized as the services are performed and amounts are earned in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB 101”), as amended by SAB No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”). The Company considers amounts to be earned once evidence of an arrangement has been obtained, services are delivered, fees are fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. In such contracts, the Company’s efforts, measured by time incurred, typically represent the contractual milestones or output measure, which is the contractual earnings pattern. For consulting contracts with fixed fees, the Company recognizes revenues in accordance with contract terms, and when the services are delivered, price is determinable and the revenue is earned or collectable.

 

h) Comprehensive Income

 

FASB ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, comprehensive loss was $114,164 and $200,345 respectively.

 

i) Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets likely. The Company did not incur any material impact to its financial condition or results of operations due to the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company is subject to U.S federal jurisdiction income tax examinations for the tax years 2006 through 2014. In addition, the Company is subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2006 through 2014.

 

j) Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company may issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company has adopted ASC Topic 718 (formerly SFAS 123R), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, which establishes a fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. In accordance with guidance now incorporated in ASC Topic 718, the cost of stock options and warrants issued to employees and non-employees is measured on the grant date based on the fair value. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

 

 
9

 

The fair value of stock warrants was determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option model requires management to make various estimates and assumptions, including expected term, expected volatility, risk-free rate, and dividend yield. The expected term represents the period of time that stock-based compensation awards granted are expected to be outstanding and is estimated based on considerations including the vesting period, contractual term and anticipated employee exercise patterns. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in relation to the contractual life of stock-based compensation instrument. The dividend yield assumption is based on historical patterns and future expectations for the Company dividends.

 

k) Long-term Investment

 

Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase. Securities are classified held-to-maturity when the Company has both the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at amortized cost. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Securities not classified as held-to-maturity or trading are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, the changes in the market value of available-for-sale securities, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected in Other Comprehensive Income, with the impairment losses, net of income taxes, charged to net income in the period in which it occurs.

 

The fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale or held-for-maturity security below cost that is deemed to be other-then-temporary results in a reduction in carrying amount to fair value.

 

Impairments that are considered other-than-temporary are recognized as a loss in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company considers various factors in reviewing impairments, including the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the Company’s cost basis, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.

 

As at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no trading and held-to-maturity securities.

 

On September 9, 2014, the Company subscribed for 1,265,593 units of Tanager Energy Inc. (“Tanager”), a Canadian mining company listed on the Canadian TSX Venture Exchange as a Tier 2 company and trading under the stock symbol “TAN,” at a price of CAD $0.08 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of Tanager’s common stock and one warrant. Each warrant entitles the Company to subscribe for one additional Common Share at a price of $0.15 at any time until October 5, 2016. The Warrants expire on October 5, 2016. The total price for the units subscribed is CAD $101,247.47. The Company paid $92,000, which was equivalent to CAD $101,247.47 on September 11, 2014.

 

On October 6, 2014, the Company subscribed for an additional 2,187,500 units of Tanager at a price of C$0.08 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of Tanager’s common stock and one warrant. Each warrant entitles the Company to subscribe for one additional Common Share at a price of $0.15 at any time until October 5, 2016. The Warrants expire on October 5, 2016. The total price for the units subscribed is C$175,000. The Company paid US$155,444, which was equivalent to C$175,000 on October 17, 2014.

 

The Company’s investment in Tanager is considered as “available-for-sale” securities, and an unrealized gain of $54,768 was recorded in other comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

 

l) Impairment of long-lived assets

 

In accordance with ASC 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company is required to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

 

 
10

 

Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally determined by using the asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value. The Company estimates fair value of the assets based on certain assumptions such as budgets, internal projections, and other available information as considered necessary. There is no impairment of long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

m) Foreign Currency Exchange

 

An entity's functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates, normally that is the currency of the environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. Management's judgment is essential to determine the functional currency by assessing various indicators, such as cash flows, sales price and market, expenses, financing and inter-company transactions and arrangements. Functional currency of the parent company is U.S. Dollar. The reporting currency of the Company is U.S. Dollar, and the functional currency of its PRC operation is RMB. PRC is the primary economic environment in which the Representative Office operates. The reporting currency of these consolidated financial statements is the U.S. Dollar.

 

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company's Representative Office which is prepared using the RMB are translated into the Company's reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated using average rates prevailing during each reporting period, and shareholders' equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity.

 

n) Convertible Notes Payable

 

The Company accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with ASC 815. ASC 815 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments.

 

The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible note under the guidance of ASC 815. The conversion feature did not meet the definition of “indexed to a company’s own stock” provided for in ASC 815 due to the down round protection feature. Therefore, the conversion feature requires bifurcation and liability classification. Additionally, the default put requires bifurcation because it is indexed to risks that are not associated with credit or interest risk. As a result, the compound embedded derivative comprises of (i) the embedded conversion feature and (i) the default put. Rather than bifurcating and recording the compound embedded derivative as a derivative liability, the Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the convertible note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in accordance with ASC 815-15-25-4.

 

o) Derivative Liability

 

We review the terms of convertible debt issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument

 

Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value. The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense. 

  

p) Recently Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board and other entities issued new or modifications to, or interpretations of, existing accounting guidance during 2014. Management has carefully considered the new pronouncements that altered generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any other new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported financial position or operations in the near term.

Petroleum and natural gas rights

 

On November 3, 2014, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale, Petroleum and Natural Gas Conveyance Agreement (the “Agreement”), with Tanager Energy Inc., a Canadian corporation listed on the TSX Venture Exchange as a Tier 2 company and trading under the stock symbol “TAN” (“Tanager Energy”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company was to receive a 50% working interest in the Joffre oil and gas property located in Alberta, Canada (the “Joffre Property”), and the Company was obligated to pay Tanager C$400,000 (CAD) for the interest in the Joffre Property, with C$340,000 payable at closing.

 

On November 4, 2014, the Company closed the transaction by paying Tanager US $302,367, with the balance of US $52,801 (C$60,000) paid in January 2015. Tanager will own the remaining 50% working interest in the property and will operate and manage the property in accordance with an operating agreement pursuant to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Landman Operating Procedure. The proceeds are being used by Tanager to complete and place on production the first of four suspended Devonian oil wells in the Joffre D-3 B oil pool. The Company’s (and Tanager’s) working interest in the Joffre Property will generally terminate when future production, if any, ceases (or in the case of the water disposal well on the Joffre Property, on the date that production ceases after 5 years has elapsed).

 

The Company’s petroleum and natural gas rights are recorded at cost as of March 31, 2015. The Company will assess the impairment by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows derived from these rights to the carrying value. Any impairment loss will be recorded in the income statements for the future reporting period(s).

Note 7.

Risk Management

 

The Company is exposed to financial risks due to the nature of its business and the financial assets it holds. A summary of the Company’s risk exposures as it relates to financial instruments are reflected below:

 

(a) Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value from a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Company will be exposed to potential losses if the price of the long-term investment it hold decreases.

This document includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 or the Reform Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, any projections of earning, revenue or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions of performance; and statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following: our ability to raise capital and the terms thereof; ability to gain an adequate player base to generate the expected revenue; competition with established gaming websites; adverse changes in government regulations or polices; and other factors referenced in this Form 10-Q.

The Company’s future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change and inherent risks and uncertainties.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operation of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

Three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $7,793 and $1,345 in cash holdings, respectively.

 

Revenue

 

The Company had no revenues during the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

Expenses

 

The Company’s operating expenses increased by $41,724 to $149,730 for the three month period ended March 31, 2015, from $108,006 in the corresponding period in 2014. The increase was mainly due to the increase of general and administrative expenses and professional fees incurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2014.

 

Net Loss

 

The Company incurred a net loss of $168,932 during the three month period ended March 31, 2015, compared with a net loss of $200,407 for the three month period ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in net loss was mainly due to the change in the fair value of the convertible notes during the three month period ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2015.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

The Company has adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements which requires it to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.

Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future, the final results may ultimately differ from actual results. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions, which have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results. Management believes its critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the presentation of the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s critical accounting policies include debt management and accounting for stock-based compensation. The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities.”
