EXPLANATORY NOTE

Petroteq Energy Inc. (“Petroteq” or the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-Q (this “Amendment”) to amend the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended November 30, 2020 (the “Original Filing”), originally filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 19, 2020. This Amendment restates the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures as of and for the three months ended November 30, 2020 and 2019.

Background of Restatement

On July 16, 2021, the independent members of the Audit Committee (with Mr. Alex Blyumkin abstaining, the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company, after discussion with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, concluded that:

1.the Company’s previously-issued financial statements (the “Periodic Financial Statements”) contained in the following periodic reports should no longer be relied upon:

(a)the Company’s annual reports (each, an “Annual Report”) on Form 10-K for the financial years ended August 31, 2019 and August 31, 2020, originally filed on December 16, 2019 and December 15, 2020, respectively;

(b)Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report for the financial year ended August 31, 2020, originally filed on December 28, 2020; and

(c)the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended May 31, 2019, November 30, 2019, February 29, 2020, May 31, 2020, November 30, 2020 and February 28, 2021, originally filed on October 7, 2019, January 21, 2020, June 3, 2020, July 20, 2020, January 19, 2021 and April 20, 2021; and

(d)Amendments to the quarterly reports for the periods ended February 29, 2020, and February 28, 2021, originally filed on June 8, 2020 and April 21, 2021.

2.the Company’s previously-issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended February 28, 2019 and 2018 (together with the Periodic Financial Statements, the “Financial Statements”) contained in the original Filing should no longer be relied on.

The Board of Directors has concurred with the conclusions of the Audit Committee.

The Company had issued a secured promissory note dated December 27, 2018 (the “Note”) payable to Redline Capital Management S.A. (“Redline”) in the principal amount of $6,000,000, maturing 24 months following its date of issue, and bearing interest at the rate of 10% per annum based on a 360-day year. The Company’s obligations under the Note are purportedly secured by collateral consisting of the Company’s right, title and interest in certain federal oil and gas leases (the “Oil and Gas Leases”) relating to the Company’s Asphalt Ridge Project, pursuant to a security agreement between the parties dated December 27, 2018 (the “Security Agreement”).

The Note had been issued pursuant to the terms of a settlement agreement between the parties dated December 27, 2018 (the “Settlement Agreement”) which purported to settle certain claims asserted by Redline against the Company. Shortly following the Settlement Agreement, in early 2019, Mr. Blyumkin, who was then the Company’s Executive Chairman, had indicated he undertook an internal review of the claims made by Redline and concluded that the Settlement Agreement, the Note and the Security Agreement are void and unenforceable, and that they did not have to be disclosed to the Board of Directors or to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Blyumkin has indicated he verbally advised Redline that the Company now considered the Settlement Agreement, and therefore the Note and the Security Agreement, to be void and unenforceable. However, no action was taken to document this position. Since maturity of the Note, on December 27, 2020, Redline has not filed any legal action to enforce payment of the Note.

In response to a request from Staff at the Securities and Exchange Commission, Mr. Blyumkin determined that it was appropriate to raise the Settlement Agreement, the Note and the Security Agreement for consideration by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and the Audit Committee, and, in particular, to review his conclusion that they did not have to be disclosed in the Financial Statements. The Audit Committee has determined that, notwithstanding the results of the internal review of Redline’s claims undertaken by Mr. Blyumkin in early 2019, the Settlement Agreement, the Note and the Security Agreement should have been disclosed, and that the obligations referenced in the Note should have been disclosed in the Financial Statements regardless of the Company’s position of their validity and enforceability.

Special legal counsel was subsequently engaged by the Company to undertake a review of the Settlement Agreement, the Note and the Security Agreement with the view to determining whether they are enforceable (and, in particular, whether the Security Agreement has properly charged the Company’s right, title and interest in the Oil and Gas Leases as personal property, and whether any security interests purportedly granted pursuant to the Security Agreement have been perfected under applicable law), and whether the related liability should be classified as an actual or contingent liability. Based on the advice of such legal counsel, the Company has determined that the liability purportedly represented by the Note should be classified as a contingent liability.

In addition to the above, the Company added additional disclosure relating to General Information disclosed in Note 1, relating to deposits paid of $1,903,000 for the acquisition by the Company (acting through its wholly-owned subsidiary, TMC Capital LLC (“TMC”), of 100% of the operating rights under certain U.S. federal oil and gas leases administered by the U.S. department of Interior’s Bureau of Land Management in Garfield and Wayne Counties and covering approximately 8,480 gross acres in P.R. Springs and the Tar Sands Triangle within the State of Utah, for a total consideration of $3,000,000.

In terms of a letter agreement dated April 17, 2020 between the transferor of the oil and gas leases and TMC, as transferee, due to uncertainty as to whether all of the 10 leases which the Company had initially paid deposits for are available, an adjustment to the purchase price has been agreed upon as follows: (i) should all 10 of the leases be available, the Company will pay the additional $1,093,000 for the rights under the leases; (ii) if only a portion of the leases ranging from 4 to 9 of the leases are available, the Company will adjust the final purchase price of the leases to between $1.5 million and $2.5 million; and (iii) notwithstanding the above, if after a period of 7 years from April 17, 2020, if at least six of the leases are not available to the Company, then the Company may demand a refund of $1.2 million or instruct the Seller to acquire other leases in the same area for up to $1.2 million.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures Considerations

As disclosed in the Original Filing, we do not yet have effective disclosure controls and procedures. Management has concluded that, due to a lack of segregation of duties, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits 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 the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, as disclosed in our Annual Reports, we do not yet have effective internal controls over all aspects of our financial reporting, and we have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses identified to date include insufficient number of staff to maintain optimal segregation of duties and levels of oversight. As such, our internal controls over financial reporting were not designed or operating effectively.

In connection with the restatement, management has re-evaluated the effectiveness of Petroteq’s disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2020. As a result of that assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of November 30, 2020, due to the factors described in the Original Filing.

Items Amended

Each of the following items are amended and restated in their entirety in this Amendment: (i) Part I, Item 1. - Financial Statements; (ii) Part I, - Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Part II, Item 1, - Legal Proceedings; and Part II, Item 1A. - Risk Factors is amended to add certain additional risks factors associated with the addition of the obligations referenced in the Note as a contingent liability.

Except for the foregoing amended and/or restated information required to reflect the effects of the restatement of the financial statements as described above, and applicable cross-references within this Amendment, this Amendment does not amend, update, or change any other items or disclosures contained in the Original Filing. This Amendment continues to describe conditions as of the date of the Original Filing, and the disclosures herein have not been updated to reflect events, results or developments that have occurred after the date of the Original Filing, or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Accordingly, forward looking statements included in this Amendment represent management’s views as of the date of the Original Filing and should not be assumed to be accurate as of any date thereafter. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing date.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  

(a)Basis of preparation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which the Company considers necessary, for a fair presentation of those financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months ended November 30, 2020May 31, 2021 may not necessarily be indicative of results that may be expected for any succeeding quarter or for the entire fiscal year.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities which are measured at fair value. The Company’s reporting currency and the functional currency of all of its operations is the U.S. dollar, as it is the principal currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. Accordingly, all amounts referred to in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise.

 

The Company is an “SEC Issuer” as defined under National Instrument 52-107 “Accounting Principles and Audit Standards” as adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators and is relying on the exemptions of Section 3.7 of NI 52-107 and of Section 1.4(8) of the Companion Policy to National Instrument 51-102 “Continuous Disclosure Obligations” (“NI 51-102CP”) which permits the Company to prepare its financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP for Canadian securities law reporting purposes.

 (c)Estimates

 

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires the Company to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company continually evaluates its estimates, including those related to recovery of long-lived assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to the Company’s reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include the following;

 

the useful lives and depreciation rates for intangible assets and property, plant and equipment;

 

 the carrying and fair value of oil and gas properties and product and equipment inventories;

 

 Allall provisions;

 

 the fair value of reporting units and the related assessment of goodwill for impairment, if applicable;

 

 the fair value of intangibles other than goodwill;

 

 income taxes and the recoverability of deferred tax assets

 

 legal and environmental risks and exposures; and

 

 general credit risks associated with receivables, if any.

     

(d)Foreign currency translation adjustments

  

The Company’s reporting currency and the functional currency of all its operations is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities of the Canadian parent company are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate as of the end of a reporting period. Income, expenses and cash flows are translated using an average exchange rate during the reporting period. Since the reporting currency as well as the functional currency of all entities is the U.S. Dollar there is no translation difference recorded.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

   

(e)Revenue recognition

  

The Company recognizes revenue in terms of ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606).

 

Revenue transactiontransactions are assessed using a five-step revenue recognition model to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration in exchange for those goods or services. The five steps are as follows:

 

i.identify the contract with a customer;

 

ii.identify the performance obligations in the contract;

 

iii.determine the transaction price;

 

iv.allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and

 

v.recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

  

Revenue from License Fees

 

Revenue from license fees include the sale of rights to utilize the technology developed by the Company. The License fee is recognized immediately as there is no requirement to provide ongoing services or support to the Licensee in terms of the License Agreement.

 

Revenue from hydrocarbon sales

  

Revenue from hydrocarbon sales include the sale of hydrocarbon products and are recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, delivery has occurred, control has transferred and collectability of the revenue is probable. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. This occurs when control is transferred to the purchaser upon delivery of contract specified production volumes at a specified point. The transaction price used to recognize revenue is a function of the contract billing terms. Revenue is invoiced, if required, upon delivery based on volumes at contractually based rates with payment typically received within 30 days after invoice date. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities on hydrocarbon sales, if any, are not included in such revenues, but are presented separately in the consolidated comprehensive statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

 

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations

 

The Company does not anticipate entering into long-term supply contracts, rather it expects all contracts to be short-term in nature with a contract term of one year or less. The Company intends applying the practical expedient in ASC 606 exempting the disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. For contracts with terms greater than one year, the Company will apply the practical expedient in ASC 606 exempting the disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if there is any variable consideration to be allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. The Company anticipates that with respect to the contracts it will enter into, each unit of product will typically represent a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required.

  

Contract balances

  

The Company does not anticipate that it will receive cash relating to future performance obligations. However if such cash is received, the revenue will be deferred and recognized when all revenue recognition criteria are met.

  

Disaggregation of revenue

 

The Company has limited revenues to date. Disaggregation of revenue disclosures can be found in Note 22. 

  

Customers

  

The Company anticipates that it will have a limited number of customers which will make up the bulk of its revenues due to the nature of the oil and gas industry.

(f)General and administrative expenses

  

General and administrative expenses will be presented net of any working interest owners, if any, of the oil and gas properties owned or leased by the Company. 

 

(g)Share-based payments

 

The Company may grant stock options to directors, officers, employees and others providing similar services. The fair value of these stock options is measured at grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. Share-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period during which the options vest, with a corresponding increase in equity.

 

The Company may also grant equity instruments to consultants and other parties in exchange for goods and services. Such instruments are measured at the fair value of the goods and services received on the date they are received and are recorded as share-based compensation expense with a corresponding increase in equity. If the fair value of the goods and services received are not reliably determinable, their fair value is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.

 

(h)Income taxes

  

The Company utilizes ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

  

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Accounting guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements, under which a company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.

  

The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Accordingly, the Company would report a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company elects to recognize any interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense.

 

(i)Net income (loss) per share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

  

Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.

 

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for stock options and share purchase warrants. Under this method, “in-the-money” stock options and share purchase warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

   

(j)Cash and cash equivalents

  

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original contractual maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

  

(k)Accounts receivable

  

The Company had minimal sales during the period of which all proceeds were collected therefore there are no accounts receivable balances.

  

(l)Oil and gas property and equipment

  

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas properties. Exploration costs, such as exploratory geological and geophysical costs, and costs associated with delay rentals and exploration overhead are charged against earnings as incurred. Costs of successful exploratory efforts along with acquisition costs and the costs of development of surface mining sites are capitalized. 

 

Site development costs are initially capitalized, or suspended, pending the determination of proved reserves. If proved reserves are found, site development costs remain capitalized as proved properties. Costs of unsuccessful site developments are charged to exploration expense. For site development costs that find reserves that cannot be classified as proved when development is completed, costs continue to be capitalized as suspended exploratory site development costs if there have been sufficient reserves found to justify completion as a producing site and sufficient progress is being made in assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. If management determines that future appraisal development activities are unlikely to occur, associated suspended exploratory development costs are expensed. In some instances, this determination may take longer than one year. The Company reviews the status of all suspended exploratory site development costs quarterly.

  

Capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties are depleted by an equivalent unit-of-production method. Proved leasehold acquisition costs, less accumulated amortization, are depleted over total proved reserves, which includes proved undeveloped reserves. Capitalized costs of related equipment and facilities, including estimated asset retirement costs, net of estimated salvage values and less accumulated amortization are depreciated over proved developed reserves associated with those capitalized costs. Depletion is calculated by applying the depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A&A”) rate (amortizable base divided by beginning of period proved reserves) to current period production.

  

Costs associated with unproved properties are excluded from the depletion calculation until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to such properties. The Company assesses its unproved properties for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances dictate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable.

  

Proved properties will be assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances dictate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. Individual assets are grouped for impairment purposes based on a common operating location. If there is an indication the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered, the asset is assessed for potential impairment by management through an established process. If, upon review, the sum of the undiscounted pre-tax cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, the carrying value is written down to estimated fair value. Because there is usually a lack of quoted market prices for long-lived assets, the fair value of impaired assets is typically determined based on the present values of expected future cash flows using discount rates believed to be consistent with those used by principal market participants or by comparable transactions. The expected future cash flows used for impairment reviews and related fair value calculations are typically based on judgmental assessments of future production volumes, commodity prices, operating costs, and capital investment plans, considering all available information at the date of review.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

(l)Oil and gas property and equipment (continued)

 

Gains or losses are recorded for sales or dispositions of oil and gas properties which constitute an entire common operating field or which result in a significant alteration of the common operating field’s DD&A rate. These gains and losses are classified as asset dispositions in the accompanying consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Partial common operating field sales or dispositions deemed not to significantly alter the DD&A rates are generally accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized.

 

The Company capitalizes interest costs incurred and attributable to material unproved oil and gas properties and major development projects of oil and gas properties.

  

(m)Other property and equipment

  

Depreciation and amortization of other property and equipment, including corporate and leasehold improvements, are provided using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives ranging from three to ten years. Interest costs incurred and attributable to major corporate construction projects are also capitalized.

 

(n)Asset retirement obligations and environmental liabilities

  

The Company recognizes liabilities for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets, such as producing sites when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of such assets and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The initial measurement of an asset retirement obligation is recorded as a liability at its fair value, with an offsetting asset retirement cost recorded as an increase to the associated property and equipment on the consolidated balance sheet. When the assumptions used to estimate a recorded asset retirement obligation change, a revision is recorded to both the asset retirement obligation and the asset retirement cost. The Company’s asset retirement obligations also include estimated environmental remediation costs which arise from normal operations and are associated with the retirement of such long-lived assets. The asset retirement cost is depreciated using a systematic and rational method similar to that used for the associated property and equipment.

  

(o)Commitments and contingencies

  

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation or other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities for environmental remediation or restoration claims resulting from allegations of improper operation of assets are recorded when it is probable that obligations have been incurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. Expenditures related to such environmental matters are expensed or capitalized in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for property and equipment.

 

(p)Fair value measurements

  

Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. This price is commonly referred to as the “exit price.” Fair value measurements are classified according to a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs underlying the valuation techniques. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels:

 

Level 1 – Inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and have the highest priority. When available, the Company measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value.

 

 Level 2 – Inputs consist of quoted prices that are generally observable for the asset or liability. Common examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets not considered to be active.

 

 Level 3 – Inputs are not observable from objective sources and have the lowest priority. The most common Level 3 fair value measurement is an internally developed cash flow model.

(q)Comparative amounts

  

The comparative amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements have been reclassified where necessary to conform to the presentation used in the current year.

  

(r)Recent accounting standards

  

Issued accounting standards not yet adopted

 

The Company will evaluateFASB issued several additional updates during the applicabilityperiod, none of the following issued accountingthese standards and intends to adopt those which are either applicable to its activities.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, debt with Conversion and Other Options (subtopic 470-20): and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). Certain accounting models for convertible debt instruments with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features are removed from the guidance and for equity instruments the contracts affected are free standing instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives, the settlement assessment was simplified by removing certain settlement requirements.

This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021.

The effects of this ASU on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements is currently being assessed and is expected to have an immaterial impact on the financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected credit loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update are required to be applied using the modified retrospective method with an adjustment to accumulated deficit and are effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2020, including interim periods. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. An entity with trade receivables will be required to use historical loss information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to determine expected lifetime credit losses. Pooling of assets with similar risk characteristics is also required.

Since adopted on January 1, 2020, there has not been any material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), this update reduce the complexity in accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to accounting for income taxes and deferred taxes and simplifying the accounting treatment of franchise taxes, a step up in the tax basis of goodwill as part of business combinations, the allocation of current and deferred tax to a legal entity not subject to tax in its own financial statements, reflecting changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective rate in interim periods that include the enactment date and minor codification improvements.

This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020.

The effects of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements is not considered to be material.

Any new accounting standards, not disclosed above, that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption untilat a future date and none are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

5.MINERAL LEASES (continued)

 

(b)SITLA Mineral Lease (Petroteq Oil Recovery, LLC mineral lease)

 

On June 1, 2018, the Company acquired mineral rights under two mineral leases entered into between the State of Utah’s School and Institutional Trust Land Administration (“SITLA”), as lessor, and POSR, as lessee, covering lands in Asphalt Ridge that largely adjoin the lands held under the TMC Mineral Lease (collectively, the “SITLA Mineral Leases”). The SITLA Mineral Leases are valid until May 30, 2028 and have rights for extensions based on reasonable production. The leases remain in effect beyond the original lease term so long as mining and sale of the tar sands are continued and sufficient to cover operating costs of the Company.

 

Advanced royalty of $10 per acre are due annually each year the lease remains in effect and can be applied against actual production royalties. The advanced royalty is subject to price adjustment by the lessor after the tenth year of the lease and then at the end of each period of five years thereafter.

 

Production royalties payable are 8% of the market price of marketable product or products produced from the tar sands and sold under arm’s length contract of sale. Production royalties have a minimum of $3 per barrel of produced substance and may be increased by the lessor after the first ten years of production at a maximum rate of 1% per year and up to 12.5%.

 

(c)BLM Mineral Lease

 

On January 18, 2019, the Company paid $10,800,000 for the acquisition of 50% of the operating rights under U.S. federal oil and gas leases, administered by the U.S. Department of Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) covering approximately 5,960 gross acres (2,980 net acres) within the State of Utah. The total consideration of $10,800,000 was settled by a cash payment of $1,800,000 and by the issuance of 15,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.60 per share, amounting to $9,000,000.

 

On July 22, 2019, the Company acquired the remaining 50% of the operating rights under U.S. federal oil and gas leases, administered by the BLM covering approximately 5,960 gross acres (2,980 net acres) within the State of Utah, for a total consideration of $13,000,000 settled by the issuance of 30,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.40 per share, amounting to $12,000,000 and cash of $1,000,000, of which $100,000 has not been paid to date.

6.PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT(continued)EQUIPMENT (continued)

 

(a)Oil Extraction Plant

  

In June 2011, the Company commenced the development of an oil extraction facility on its mineral lease in Maeser, Utah and entered into construction and equipment fabrication contracts for this purpose. On September 1, 2015, the first phase of the plant was completed and was ready for production of hydrocarbon products for resale to third parties. During the year ended August 31, 2017 the Company began the dismantling and relocating the oil extraction facility to its TMC Mineral Lease facility to improve production and logistical efficiencies while continuing its project to increase production capacity to a minimum capacity of 400-500 barrels per day. The plant has been substantially relocated to the TMC mining site and expansion of the plant to production of 400-500 barrels per day has been substantially completed.

  

As a result of the relocation of the plant and the expansion that has taken place to date, the Company reassessed the reclamation and restoration provision and raised an additional liability of $2,375,159 during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 which is capitalized to the cost of the plant and will be depreciated according to our depreciation policy.

  

As a result of the relocation of the plant and the planned expansion of the plant’s production capacity to 400-500 barrels per day, and subsequently to an additional 3,000 barrels per day, the Company re-evaluated the depreciation policy of the oil extraction plant and the oil extraction technologies (Note 11)14) and determined that depreciation should be recorded on the basis of the expected production of the completed plant at various capacities. No amortization has been recorded during the 2020 and 2019 fiscal years as there has only been test production during these years.

 

7.LEASES

 

The Company entered into a real property lease for office space located at 15315 Magnolia Blvd., Sherman Oaks, California. The lease commenced on September 1, 2019 and expires on August 31, 2024, monthly rental expense is $4,941 per month with annual 3% escalations during the term of the lease.

 

The initial value of the right-of-use asset was $245,482 and the operating lease liability was $245,482. The Company monitors for events or changes in circumstances that require a reassessment of our lease. When a reassessment results in the remeasurement of a lease liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the corresponding right-of-use asset unless doing so would reduce the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to an amount less than zero. In that case, the amount of the adjustment that would result in a negative right-of-use asset balance is recorded as a loss in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

During April 2015, the Company entered into two equipment loan agreements in the aggregate amount of $282,384, with financial institutions to acquire equipment for the oil extraction facility. The loans had a term of 60 months and bore interest at rates between 4.3% and 4.9% per annum. Principal and interest were paid in monthly installments. These loans were secured by the acquired assets.

 

On May 7, 2018, the Company entered into a negotiable promissory note and security agreement with Commercial Credit Group to acquire a crusher from Power Equipment Company for $660,959. An implied interest rate was calculated as 12.36% based on the timing of the initial repayment of $132,200 and subsequent 42 monthly instalments of $15,571. The terms of the note were renegotiated during June 2020, and the instalments were amended to $16,140 per month due to payments not being made during the pandemic. The promissory note is secured by the crusher.

 

Discount Rate

 

To determine the present value of minimum future lease payments for operating leases at September 1, 2019, the Company was required to estimate a rate of interest that it would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment (the “incremental borrowing rate” or “IBR”).

 

The Company determined the appropriate IBR by identifying a reference rate and making adjustments that take into consideration financing options and certain lease-specific circumstances. For the reference rate, the Company used the 5 year ARM (adjustable-rate mortgage) interest rate at the time of entering into the agreement and compared that rate to the Company’s weighted average cost of funding at the time of entering into the operating lease. The Company determined that 10.00% was an appropriate incremental borrowing rate to apply to its real-estate operating lease.

Oil Extraction Technologies

 

During the year ended August 31, 2012, the Company acquired a closed-loop solvent based oil extraction technology which facilitates the extraction of oil from a wide range of bituminous sands and other hydrocarbon sediments. The Company has filed patents for this technology in the USA and Canada and has employed it in its oil extraction plant. The Company commenced partial production from its oil extraction plant on September 1, 2015 and was amortizing the cost of the technology over fifteen years, the expected life of the oil extraction plant. Since the company has increased the capacity of the plant to 400 to 500 barrels daily during 2018, and expects to further expand the capacity to an additional 3,000 barrels daily, it determined that a more appropriate basis for the amortization of the technology is the units of production at the plant after commercial production begins again.

 

No amortization of the technology was recorded during the 2021 and 2020 fiscal years.

(ii)On October 10, 2014, the Company issued two secured debentures for an aggregate principal amount of CAD $1,100,000 to two private lenders. The debentures initially bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum, were originally scheduled to mature on October 15, 2017 and are secured by all of the assets of the Company. In addition, the Company issued common share purchase warrants to acquire an aggregate of 16,667 common shares of the Company. On September 22, 2016, the two secured debentures were amended to extend the maturity date to January 31, 2017. The terms of these debentures were renegotiated with the debenture holders to allow for the conversion of the secured debentures into common shares of the Company at a rate of CAD $4.50 per common share and to increase the interest rate, starting June 1, 2016, to 15% per annum. On January 31, 2017, the two secured debentures were amended to extend the maturity date to July 31, 2017. Additional transaction costs and penalties incurred for the loan modifications amounted to $223,510. On February 9, 2018, the two secured debentures were renegotiated with the debenture holders to extend the loan to May 1, 2019. A portion of the debenture amounting to CAD $628,585 was amended to be convertible into common shares of the Company, of which, CAD $365,000 were converted on May 1, 2018. The remaining convertible portion is interest free and was to be converted from August 1, 2018 to January 1, 2019. The remaining non-convertible portion of the debenture was to be paid off in 12 equal monthly instalments beginning May 1, 2018, bearing interest at 5% per annum. On September 11, 2018, the remaining convertible portion of the debenture was converted into common shares of the Company and a portion of the non-convertible portion of the debenture was settled through the issue of 316,223 common shares of the Company. On December 13, 2019, the maturity date of the non-convertible portion of the debenture was extended to January 31, 2020 and the interest rate was increased to 10% per annum.

12.13.DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

Convertible notes issued to several lenders, disclosed in note 14(h), (i) and (j),11, above have conversion rights that are linked to the Company’s stock price, at a factor ranging from 50% to 75% of an average stock price over a period ranging from 15 to 20 days prior to the date of conversion. These conversion rights may also include a fixed maximum conversion price. The number of shares issuable upon conversion of these convertible notes is therefore not determinable until conversion takes place. The Company has determined that these conversion features meet the requirements for classification as derivative liabilities and has measured their fair value using a Black Scholes valuation model which takes into account the following factors:

 

Historical share price volatility;

 

Maturity dates of the underlying securities being valued;

 

Risk free interest rates; and

 

Expected dividend policies of the Company.

 

The fair value of the derivative liabilities was initially recognized as a debt discount and was re-assessed at November 30, 2020,May 31, 2021, with a total change in fair value of $156,998$1,292,169 charged to the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The value of the derivative liability will be re-assessed at each financial reporting date, with any movement thereon recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which it is incurred.

(a)Oil Extraction Plant

  

In accordance with the terms of the sub-lease agreement disclosed in note 85 above, the Company is required to dismantle its oil extraction plant at the end of the lease term. During the year ended August 31, 2015, the Company recorded a provision of $350,000 for dismantling the facility.

  

During the year ended August 31, 2019, in accordance with the requirements to provide a surety bond to the Utah Division of Oil Gas and Mining in terms of the amendment to the Notice of Intent to Commence Large Mining Operations at an estimated production of 4,000 barrels per day, the Company estimated that the cost of dismantling the oil extraction plant and related equipment would increase to $498,484. The discount rate used in the calculation is estimated to be 2.32% on operations that are expected to commence in September 2021.

 

Because of the long-term nature of the liability, the greatest uncertainties in estimating this provision are the costs that will be incurred and the timing of the dismantling of the oil extraction facility. In particular, the Company has assumed that the oil extraction facility will be dismantled using technology and equipment currently available and that the plant will continue to be economically viable until the end of the lease term.

(b)Site restoration

During the year ended August 31, 2015, the Company provided $200,000 for this purpose.

  

The site restoration provision represents rehabilitation and restoration costs related to oil extraction sites. This provision has been created based on the Company’s internal estimates. Significant assumptions in estimating the provision include the technology and equipment currently available, future environmental laws and restoration requirements, and future market prices for the necessary restoration works required.

 

During the year ended August 31, 2019, in accordance with the requirements to provide a surety bond to the Utah Division of Oil Gas and Mining in terms of the amendment to the Notice of Intent to Commence Large Mining Operations at an estimated production of 4,000 barrels per day, the Company estimated that the cost of restoring the site would increase to $2,472,013. The discount rate used in the calculation is estimated to be 2.32% on operations that are expected to commence in September 2021.

Legal Matters

 

On December 27, 2018, the Company executed and delivered: (i) a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Redline Capital Management S.A. (“Redline”) and Momentum Asset Partners II, LLC; (ii) a secured promissory note payable to Redline in the principal amount of $6,000,000 (the “Note”) with a maturity date of 27 December 2020, bearing interest at 10% per annum; and (iii) a Security Agreement (together with the Settlement Agreement and the Note, the “Redline Agreements”) among the Company, Redline, and TMC Capital, LLC (“TMC”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

After undertaking an in-depth analysis of the Redline Agreements in the context of the underlying transactions and events, special legal counsel to the Company has opined that the Redline Agreements are likely void and unenforceable.

 

The Company’s special legal counsel regards the possibility of Redline’s success in pursuing any claims against the Company or TMC under the Redline Agreements as less than reasonably possible and therefore no provision has been raised against these claims.

 

The Company is currently evaluating the options and remedies that are available to it to ensure that the Redline Agreements are declared as void or are rescinded and extinguished.

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

 

The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting our financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. The discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes presented herein and the consolidated financial statements and the other information set forth in our amended annual report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 28, 2020.August 19, 2021. In addition to historical information, the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed herein and any other periodic reports filed and to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Overview and recent developments

 

We are a holding company organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada, that is engaged in various aspects of the oil and gas industry. Our primary focus is on the development and implementation of our proprietary oil sands mining and processing technology to recover oil from surface mined bitumen deposits (the “Extraction Technology”). Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Petroteq Energy CA, Inc., a California corporation, conducts our oil sands extraction business through two wholly owned operating companies, Petroteq Oil Recovery, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“POSR”), and TMC Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“TMC”).

 

Through PCA, and its two subsidiaries POSR and TMC, we are in the business of oil sands mining operations on the TMC Mineral Lease in Uintah County, Utah, where we process mined oil sands ores using our Extraction Technology to produce crude oil and hydrocarbon products. Our primary extraction and processing operations are conducted at our Asphalt Ridge processing facility, which is owned by POSR.

 

Petroteq owns the intellectual property rights to the Extraction Technology which is used at our Asphalt ridgeRidge processing facility to extract and produce crude oil from oil sands utilizing a closed-loop solvent based extraction system.

 

WeAfter optimizing the extraction process following the start-up of the Petroteq Oil Sands Plant (POSP) in January 2021, it was found that certain equipment additions would improve the process of extracting bitumen from the oil sands ore and improve the removal of clay fines from produced oil. It was decided to purchase and install the additional equipment required to improve the process so as to enhance operating efficiencies to support the third-party review of the commerciality of the extraction process. The required equipment was located, installed and commissioned and the POSP restarted in April 2021. While the Company had hoped to restart production sooner, much was learned during the commissioning and restart of the demonstration plant and all of these lessons learned were incorporated into the Front End Engineering Design (“FEED”) for a 5,000 barrel per day (“BPD”) production train. This FEED design was completed by Crosstrails Engineering LLC in July 2021.

The first full load of oil produced by the upgraded POSP was sold in June 2021. The production of the first load of sales oil from the upgraded POSP was an important milestone as it demonstrated that heavy oil from the Utah oil sands could be produced using Petroteq’s Clean Oil Recovery Technology (CORT) process without the use of water and without any requirement for a tailings pond. The buyer paid West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) pricing of US$70.91 per barrel for the 10.2° API heavy sweet crude oil produced by the POSP. The fact that we received WTI pricing for the oil produced by the POSP demonstrates that the heavy, sweet (low sulfur) oil produced from Utah’s tar sands will likely command a premium price relative to other heavy oils.

Petroteq continued to test ore from various sources in the region, with varying oil quality in the range of 5 to 10 weight percent. The CORT process has been successful in extracting oil from this ore confirming that CORT can handle a wide range of ore specifications.

Petroteq continues to work with a local drilling fluids company to identify customers for the clean sand that results from the POSP for use as a potential frac sand. The fluids company has, to date, taken 340 tons of sand and it is expected to generate revenuethat they will take the additional processed sand currently available, together with further sand as it is produced. The proceeds from the sale of hydrocarbon products commencingsand are expected to be approximately US$15-20 per ton (US$10-15 per barrel).

Kahuna Ventures LLC ("Kahuna"), an energy focused project execution firm, has reviewed POSP operating data, process simulation data, and the 5,000 BPD FEED study and has provided a third-party technical evaluation of the design. The FEED encompasses a production train capable of processing 5,000 bopd from mined oil sands ore. Petroteq anticipates that this FEED can become the starting basis for future 5,000 bopd train designs for use in Utah by Petroteq and potentially by additional licensees in Utah, the US, and other locations worldwide. This "standard" design may need some customization for local site conditions and ore characteristics, but differences are expected to be insignificant.


The FEED incorporates a number of lessons learned from operation of the demonstration plant into the proposed design including improvements in the third quarter ended May 31, 2020. However, due tomixing of crushed ore and solvent, solids separation and solvent recovery. The third-party technical verification report from Kahuna indicated extraction costs of approximately US$13.50 per barrel of oil produced. Mining and ore transport costs will add another US$8.50 per barrel for an estimated operating cost of approximately US$22 per barrel of oil produced, before corporate and SG&A costs and royalty fees. The estimated operating cost of US$22 per produced barrel of oil does not take into account the COVID-19 pandemic and volatilityreduction in oil prices, we reduced operations to a single shiftnet operating costs resulting from the possible sale of produced sand. It is estimated that the sale of produced sand could offset US$10-15 per day during the quarter ended February 29, 2020, and ultimately suspended productionbarrel of hydrocarbon products during the quarter ended May 31, 2020.

On July 2, 2020, TomCo Energy PLC (“TomCo”) announced that, following the establishment by TomCo of Greenfield Energy LLC (“Greenfield”) as a joint venture company with Valkor LLC (“Valkor”) on June 17, 2020, Greenfield would take over the management and operations of our Asphalt Ridge processing facility. Valkor remains party to a non-exclusive technology licensing agreement with Petroteq dated July 2, 2019, as amended, in respect of the plant.

Since assuming responsibility for the management of the Asphalt Ridge facility in July 2020, Greenfield has made certain upgrades to the plant to improve its capacity and reliability, and is undertaking tests to assess its potential commerciality. All critical equipment has been received and installed at the plant. In addition, buildings have been erected over the nitrogen system and the vapor recovery system, and wind-walls have been erected at the mixing tank area and decanter deck, to better allow for operations during winter months. Pressure testing of piping systems is currently underway as part of plant pre-commissioning activities in preparation for plant start-up, which is expected to occur in the near term.operating costs.

 

The Company expectsFEED study describes the design data, design requirements, detailed major equipment requirements and general operating philosophies for the development of the 5,000 bopd production train, including a Class 3 (± 25%) cost estimate of approximately US$110 million for construction of the plant on an undeveloped site. This provides for a capital cost of $22,000 per daily barrel of production. The proposed plant covered by the FEED study will consist of an initial 5,000 bopd production train but provides for the possible future expansion to 10,000 bopd through the addition of a second parallel 5,000 bopd train. The capital cost of $22,000 per daily barrel for an initial 5,000 bopd production train installed on an undeveloped site compares very favorably against the cost of plants using more traditional methods of extracting oil from oil sands.

Preliminary estimates for the longest lead equipment items are 48-54 weeks. The overall engineering, procurement and construction of the 5,000 bopd plant are estimated to require 54-62 weeks, barring any significant supply chain upsets or adverse weather conditions during construction and commissioning of the plant. Once constructed and operating, it is estimated that Greenfieldeach production train will also be in a position to restartemploy 40-50 persons between mining and ore handling operations in the near term. All site personnel completed mandatory Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) training in late November 2020, and rental equipment needed for ore crushing and handling has arrived on site. Valkor has completed its evaluation of recently received mining quotations and has selected a mining contractor. The mining contract has been executed and the mining contractor has already begun mobilizing equipment to site. After initial work to prepare the site, it is expected that mining of oil sands ore will begin in late January 2021.plant operations.

 

Even once we resume production, we anticipate that our revenue will be limited until we are at full production. We expect that we will require additional capital to continue our operations and planned growth.

As announced by TomCo on September 16, 2020, the board of TomCo believes that the Pre-FEED (Front-End Engineering and Design) Report prepared by Crosstrails Engineering LLC, a subsidiary of Valkor, provides a high level of confidence that the processes being utilized at the Asphalt Ridge processing facility can be scaled up to enable commercial production of 10,000Several barrels of produced oil per day from a single site. Proof of commerciality though is subject to the successful completion of the upgrade works to the plant, that are currently being completed prior to its restart, and the associated trials to demonstrate the commerciality of the processes used in Petroteq’s Extraction Technology process and the identification and securing of a suitable site for a commercial scale plant.

Once the Asphalt Ridge processing facility hasPOSP have now been restarted, Petroteq intends to undertake a series of associated tests and trials, to be verifiedreceived by an independent third party, to demonstrate both the commerciality of the Extraction Technology process and validate the proposed design for the commercial scale plant, thereby enabling Greenfield to move forward with the final FEED report for a 10,000 barrels of oil per day plant.

1

In addition, Greenfield has announced that, following the restart of the Asphalt Ridge processing facility, it intends to start working with Quadrise Fuels International plc regarding a trial of Quadrise’s MSAR® technology at the plant. This will initially comprise the supply of oil samples produced by at the plant to Quadrise to enable them to undertake test work in the United Kingdom, for the purpose of assessing the suitability of the heavy sweet oil produced by the POSP for their MSARÒ technology. Testing of the samples is expected to finalizebe completed by the required MSAR® formulations, before the planned on-site demonstration trial to produce approximately 600 barrels (100 tonnes)end of MSAR®.August 2021. MSAR® is a low viscosity oil-in-water emulsified synthetic heavy fuel oil (“HFO”). It is manufactured using Quadrise’s proprietary technology to mix heavy residual oils with small amounts of specialist chemicals and water to a bespoke formulation. According to Quadrise, the resulting emulsion contains approximately 30% water and less than 1% chemicals. The emulsion is a low viscosity liquid at room temperature, which makes it easier to handle and reduces the heating costs for storing, transportation and use in comparison to HFOs.

The demonstration plant has proved that the redesigned CORT process is capable of producing oil in saleable quantities and that the majority of the post processed sand can be sold for various uses. In the near term, Petroteq will only use the demonstration plant to test other oil sands ores and/or show potential investors the plant capabilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As at November 30 2020,May 31, 2021, we had cash of approximately $98,510.$307,208. We also had a working capital deficiency of approximately $11,285,842,$12,999,107, due primarily to accounts payable, derivative liabilities, short term debt, convertible debentures and accrued interest thereon which remain outstanding as of November 30, 2020.May 31, 2021. During the threenine months ended November 30, 2020,May 31, 2021, we raised $1,547,545$601,949 in private placements, warrant exercises and a further $1,449,500 in convertible debt, issuances, to meet operational requirements and plant improvement expenditure.

Subsequent to November 30, 2020, we raised a further $75,000which was offset by the repayment of convertible debt in the formaggregate amount of a convertible debt$115,749. We also received federal relief funds of $267,716 during the period to offset the effect that Covid-19 has had on the business. These funds were primarily used on to fund the expansion of the plant, the acquisition of mineral rights, the investment in notes receivable and promissory note.for working capital purposes.

 

We have spent, and expect to continue to spend, a substantial amount of funds in connection with implementing our business strategy and do not have sufficient cash on hand to implement our business strategy. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we are a going concern. To date, we have generated minimal revenue from operations and have financed our operations primarily through sales of our securities, and we expect to continue to seek to obtain our required capital in a similar manner. During the quarter ended November 30, 2020, our primary sources of funding were from our sales of convertible notes through which we received gross proceeds of approximately $1,069,500. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to cover our operating costs and general and administrative expense or continue to raise funds through the sale of debt. If we raise funds by securities convertible into common shares, the ownership interest of our existing shareholders will be diluted.

 


Capital Expenditures

 

We continue to incur capital expenditure on the oil extraction plant as we refine our processes and improve on our efficiencies. These expenses are at times unpredictable but we do not anticipate spending more than $2,000,000 on the existing plant.

 

We also intend to construct two new oil extraction facilities and expand the existing facility. Each facility is estimated to cost $10,000,000.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the information disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” contained in our Annual Report Form 10-K/A as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 28, 2020.August 19, 2021. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report Form 10-K/A as filed with the SEC on December 28, 2020.August 19, 2021.

  

We have suffered operating losses since inception and we may not be able to achieve profitability.

 

At November 30, 2020,May 31, 2021, August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $(91,074,863)$(97,047,409), $(90,664,349) and $(81,467,953), respectively and we expect to continue to incur increasing expenses in the foreseeable future as we develop our oil extraction business. We incurred a net loss of ($410,514)6,383,060) for the threenine months ended November 30, 2020May 31, 2021 and $(12,379,067) and $(15,787,886) as of the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively.  As a result, we are sustaining substantial operating and net losses, and it is possible that we will never be able to sustain or develop the revenue levels necessary to attain profitability.

 

Our ability to be profitable will depend in part upon our ability to manage our operating costs and to generate revenue from our extraction operations. Operating costs could be impacted by inflationary pressures on labor, volatile pricing for natural gas used as an energy source in transportation of fuel and in oil sands processes, and planned and unplanned maintenance.

 

We have concluded that certain of our previously issued financial statements should not be relied upon and have restated certain of our previously issued financial statements which was time-consuming and expensive and could expose us to additional risks that could have a negative effect on our Company.

 

As discussed in the Explanatory Note, weWe have concluded that certain of our previously issued financial statements should not be relied upon. We have restated our previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures as of and for the three monthsperiods ended November 30, 2020May 31, 2019 to February 28, 2021 and our previously issued audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended August 31, 2019 and included them in this Amendment. As of the date of this Amendment, we have not yet completed the restatements of certain other Periodic Financial Statements identified in the Explanatory Note.2020. We do not intend to restate our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures as of and for the three and six months ended February 28, 2019 and 2018 which were included in our initial registration statement on Form 10 originally filed with the SEC on May 22, 2019, and amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the SEC on June 24, 2019 and by Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the SEC on July 5, 2019, and such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures should not be relied on. The restatement process is time consuming and expensive and, along with the failure to file our quarterly report on this Form 10-Q for the period ended May 31, 2021 with the SEC in a timely manner, could expose us to additional risks that could have a negative effect on our Company. In particular, we incurred substantial unanticipated expenses and costs, including audit, legal and other professional fees, in connection with the restatement of our previously issued financial statements. Our management’s attention was also diverted from some aspects of the operation of our business in connection with the restatement.

The restatement of our financial statements may in the future lead to, among other things, future stockholder litigation, loss of investor confidence, negative impacts on our stock price and certain other risks.

 

There can be no assurance that litigation against the Company and/or its management or Board of Directors might not be threatened or brought in connection with matters related to our restatements. As a result of the circumstances giving rise to the restatements, we have become subject to certain additional risks and uncertainties, including unanticipated costs for accounting and legal fees in connection with or related to the restatements, potential stockholder litigation, government investigations, and potential claims by Redline Capital Management S.A. as described under Part II, Item 1. - Legal Proceedings and elsewhere in this Amendment. Any such proceeding could result in substantial defense costs regardless of the outcome of the litigation or investigation. If we do not prevail in any such litigation, we could be required to pay substantial damages or settlement costs. In addition, the restatements and related matters could impair our reputation and could cause our counterparties to lose confidence in us. Each of these occurrences could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and stock

price.

 

The failure to comply with the terms of our secured notes could result in a default under the terms of the note and, if uncured, it could potentially result in action against the pledged assets.

 

As of November 30, 2020,May 31, 2021, we had issued and outstanding notes in the principal amount of $576,329$611,193 and convertible notes in the principal amount of $10,076,200$7,751,821 to certain private investors which have already matured or mature between November 30 2020March 2021 and January 7, 2022,December, 2023, and are secured by a pledge of all of our assets.  If we fail to comply with the terms of the notes, the note holder could declare a default under the notes and if the default were to remain uncured, as secured creditors they would have the right to proceed against the collateral secured by the loans. Any action by secured creditors to proceed against our assets would likely have a serious disruptive effect on our operations.

 

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

At November 30,2020,May 31, 2021, we had not yet achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of ($91,074,863)97,047,409) since our inception and a working capital deficit of ($11,285,842)12,999,107), and expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which casts substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have incurred net losses for the past four years. The opinion of our independent registered accounting firm on our audited financial statements for the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019 draws attention to our notes to the financial statements, which describes certain material uncertainties regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management’s plan to address our ability to continue as a going concern includes (1) obtaining debt or equity funding from private placement or institutional sources, (2) obtaining loans from financial institutions, where possible, or (3) participating in joint venture transactions with third parties. Although management believes that it will be able to obtain the necessary funding to allow us to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Issuances of common shares upon exercise or conversion of convertible securities, including pursuant to our equity incentive plans and outstanding share purchase warrants and convertible notes could result in additional dilution of the percentage ownership of our shareholders and could cause our share price to fall.

 

We currently have share purchase warrants to purchase 47,379,34838,157,987 common shares outstanding at exercise prices ranging from US$0.030.0412 to CAD$4.73US$0.35 and options to purchase 9,470,0007,250,000 common shares with a weighted average exercise price of CDN $0.63$0.71 and notes convertible into 97,608,979an estimated 161,952,638 common shares based on conversion prices ranging from $0.03$0.0375 to $0.18$0.0562 per share. The issuance of the common shares underlying the share purchase warrants, options and convertible notes will have a dilutive effect on the percentage ownership held by holders of our common shares.


Our ability to use our net operating losses and certain other tax attributes may be limited.

 

As of August 31, 2020, we had accumulated net operating losses (NOLs), of approximately CDN $91 million. Varying jurisdictional tax codes have restrictions on the use of NOLs, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change NOLs, R&D credits and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income may be limited. An ownership change is generally defined as a greater than 50% change in equity ownership. Based upon an analysis of our equity ownership, we do not believe that we have experienced such ownership changes and therefore our annual utilization of our NOLs is not limited. However, should we experience additional ownership changes, our NOL carry forwards may be limited.

limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry.

The incurrence of additional indebtedness could require acceptance of covenants that, if violated, could further restrict our operations or lead to acceleration of the indebtedness that would necessitate winding up or liquidation of our company. In addition to the foregoing, our ability to obtain additional debt financing may be limited and there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable, or at all.

7

We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs.  We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, which may adversely impact our financial condition.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

On January 12, 2021, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Power Up in the aggregate principal sum of $86,350, including an original issue discount of $7,850, for net proceeds of $75,000 after certain expenses. The note bears interest at 12% per annum and matures on January 12, 2022. The note may be prepaid subject to certain prepayment penalties ranging from 110% to 130% based on the period of prepayment. The outstanding principal amount of the note is convertible at any time and from time to time at the election of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 75% of the average of the lowest trading bid price during the previous fifteen prior trading days.
