KESTREL ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2001.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim unaudited financial
statements contain all the adjustments necessary to present fairly the
financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2002, the results of
operations for the periods shown in the statements of operations, and the
cash flows for the periods shown in the statements of cash flows. All
adjustments made are of a normal recurring nature.
2. Investment in Related Party
The investment in Victoria Petroleum, NL ("VP") Common Stock is classified
as available-for-sale. Net unrealized gains and losses on the investment
are recorded to Other Comprehensive Income or Loss. At March 31, 2002, the
unrealized loss on the investment was $586,108. As of June 30, 2001, there
was an unrealized gain on the investment of $26,431. The Company has sold
32,400,000 shares since June 30, 2001, which resulted in cash proceeds of
$542,739 and a loss on sale of $403,947. As of March 31, 2002, the Company
owns 39,600,000 shares of VP.
3. Line of Credit
On February 21, 2000, the Company entered into a Line of Credit agreement
with Wells Fargo Bank West N.A., which provided the Company a borrowing
base of $600,000 with interest at Wells Fargo prime rate plus 2.5%. On
September 27, 2000, the Company and Wells Fargo amended the Line of Credit
Agreement to provide the Company a borrowing base of $2,000,000 and
reduced the interest rate to 1.5% over prime. On May 31, 2001, Wells Fargo
reduced the borrowing base to $1,400,000. As a result of the reduction to
the borrowing base, the Company was required to make scheduled principal
payments to reduce the amount outstanding to $1,400,000 by October 31,
2001, the maturity date of the line of credit. The line of credit is
secured by Deeds of Trust on various oil and gas producing properties held
by the Company. The Company reduced the outstanding balance to $1,396,000
by October 31, 2001. The Company finalized the restructuring of the line
of credit with Wells Fargo in November 2001, which calls for principal
payments of $1,340,000 by October 31, 2002. As of March 31, 2002, $976,000
was outstanding on the line of credit.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2002, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,518,480. This
compares to the Company's working capital deficit of $1,750,853 as of June 30,
2001. The decrease in working capital deficit of $232,373 was a result of
proceeds from the sale of securities, collection of accounts receivable and an
increase in trade accounts payable offset by the loss from operations. The
Company was required to pay Wells Fargo Bank $906,000 in principal payments on
the line of credit during the period, which the Company funded in part by
borrowing $97,940 from Victoria Petroleum, NL, an affiliated company ("VP"), and
$255,382 a non-affiliated party. In March 2002 the Company issued 515,000 shares
of stock a related party in exchange for previously recorded advances, plus
accrued interest of $365,000. In order for the Company to fund its working
capital deficit, possible steps could include the sale of securities, sale of
non-core oil and gas properties, sale of shares of the Company's common stock,
and a reduction of general and administrative expenses.
Net cash used by operating activities was $351,618 for the nine months ended
March 31, 2002, a decrease of $420,183 over cash used by operations of $771,801
for the same period in 2001. A year ago, the Company
6
used its available cash resources to pay existing accounts payable which
accounts for the decrease in cash used for the nine month period ended March 31,
2001. Accounts receivable decreased $129,035, or 46.3%, to $149,799 during the
period as compared to an increase of $158,955 a year ago. The decrease in
accounts receivable was attributable to lower oil and gas revenues as a result
of lower oil and gas prices received during the period. Accounts payable
increased $203,162, or 167%, to $324,626 during the period versus a decrease of
$931,256, or 65%, during the same period a year ago. The increase in payables
reflects the Company's liquidity problems during this period of lower oil and
gas prices. Accrued liabilities decreased $28,750, or 23%, to $96,058 versus an
increase of $31,926 in 2001. Accounts payable related party decreased $26,397,
or 100%, as the Company, through overhead charges, repaid the advances from an
affiliated Company. The Company, as a result of the overhead charges, now has a
receivable of $21,303. The Company billed $15,300 this quarter for overhead and
personnel and approximately $16,000 per quarter for the previous two quarters.
Net cash provided from investing activities was $466,695 for the nine months
ended March 31, 2002, versus cash used of $1,192,882 for the same period in
2001. The increase of $1,659,577 resulted primarily from the sale of 32,400,000
shares of VP Common Stock during the period, which generated $542,739 in
proceeds from which the Company recognized a loss of $403,947 on the sales. The
Company also realized proceeds of $2,258 on the sale of the Oklahoma Land and
Cattle well in Oklahoma. Capital expenditures for the period ended March 31,
2002 of $78,302 included $4,100 for office equipment, $3,900 for equipment on
the Greens Canyon 29-2 well in Wyoming, approximately $47,800 for continued
development of various coalbed methane wells in Wyoming, and $22,500 for well
equipment on the Pierce Unit in Wyoming.
Cash used by financing activities totaled $173,678 for the nine months ended
March 31, 2002 versus cash provided of $1,859,500 a year ago. The Company made
$906,000 in principal payments to Wells Fargo Bank pursuant to the line of
credit agreement of May 2001. During the fiscal third quarter the Company issued
515,000 shares of stock to a related party in exchange for previously recorded
advances and accrued interest of $365,000 by Victoria Petroleum, N.L., an
affiliated company ("VP"), which had transferred the debt to the related party.
The Company also issued 20,000 shares of stock to an office for $14,000 and was
advanced another $97,940 from VP. The Company also borrowed $255,382 from a
non-affiliated party for working capital, which is scheduled to be repaid with
interest on May 15, 2002.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 AND MARCH 31, 2001
The Company reported a loss of $439,792 or 6 cents per share, for the three
month period ended March 31, 2002. This compares with income of $301,286, or 4
cents per share, for the same period a year ago. The loss in the current period
is the result of the loss on the sale of available securities incurred during
the quarter which accounted for $183,417 of the Company's loss and significantly
lower oil and gas revenues from year ago levels.
The Company's revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 were $32,389
compared to $895,045 during the same period of 2001, a decrease of $862,656.
Excluding the gain on sale of property and loss on sale of securities, total
revenues were $213,548 as compared to $887,073 a year ago. The decrease in
revenues was a result of lower oil and gas revenues. Revenues from oil and gas
sales were $185,013 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of
$686,748, or 79%, as compared to $871,761 for the same period in 2001. The
decrease in oil and gas revenues is attributable to lower oil and gas prices as
compared to a year ago and lower volumes from the Turner 3-14 and 1-23 wells
which were completed in November and December 2000. Other income for the three
months ended March 31, 2002 increased $13,498, or 90%, to $28,535 from $15,037
in the same period a year ago. Other income represents overhead charged to a
related party for use of the Company's office space and personnel. Also included
in this figure for the three months ended March 31, 2002 is a $10,000 Joint
Interest Billing refund on workover expenses. The Company recorded a loss of
$183,417 on sale of securities as a result of the sale of 12,500,00 shares of VP
Common Stock during the quarter. See Note 2 to the financial statements.
7
The Company's total expenses for the third quarter ended March 31, 2002
decreased $122,578, or 21%, to $472,181 as compared to $594,759 a year ago. The
decrease in overall expenses is primarily due to lower production and operating
expenses incurred during the quarter versus a year ago, offset by interest
charges on the Company's line of credit.
Production and operating expenses for the three month period decreased $156,528,
or 52%, to $144,956 versus $301,484 for the same period a year ago. The decrease
in operating expenses for the period was due to lack of workover costs
experienced on the Pierce and Burditt properties which approximated $100,000 in
the third quarter of 2001.
Exploration expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 decreased $6,397, or
21%, to $24,088 from $30,485 a year ago. The decrease in costs incurred for the
quarter is a result of lower engineering and geological and geophysical costs.
No expense for dry holes, abandoned or impaired properties was recorded for the
three months ended March 31, 2002.
Depletion expense for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $59,312 versus
$37,658 a year ago.
General and administrative costs for the three months ended March 31, 2002
increased $12,548, or 6%, to $209,147 as compared to $196,599 for the same
period a year ago. The increase in expenses was attributable to higher contract
service, accounting and travel expenses.
Interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2002 increased
$7,145, or 26%, to $34,678 from $27,533 a year ago. The increase is attributable
to payment of $15,000 in interest expense to Victoria Petroleum, NL (VP), offset
by a significantly lower loan balance at Wells Fargo Bank.
NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 AND MARCH 31, 2001
----------------------------------------------------------
The Company's total revenues for the nine month period ended March 31, 2002 were
$444,172 as compared to $1,726,649 during the same period in 2001, a decrease of
$1,282,477, or 74%. Excluding the gain on sale of property and loss on sale of
securities of $401,689, total revenues decreased $872,816 to $845,861 from year
ago levels. Revenue from oil and gas sales was $752,725 for the nine months
ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $912,306, or 55%, as compared to sales of
$1,665,031 a year ago. The decrease in oil and gas sales was attributable to
significantly lower oil and gas prices and volumes. Other income increased
$40,102, or 79%, to $91,067 versus $50,965 a year ago. This increase was
attributable to the sale of tubing on the McEntire lease in Kansas for $24,900,
and $10,000 from a joint interest billing refund. As noted above, the Company
also recorded a loss on the sale of available securities of $403,947, which
resulted from the sale of 32,400,00 shares of VP Common Stock during the period.
Total expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2002 increased $79,186, or
5%, to $1,638,320 versus $1,559,134 a year ago. The increase in overall expenses
is a result of higher exploration and interest expense as well as much higher
depreciation and depletion despite lower general and administrative expenses.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, production and operating expenses
decreased $70,346, or 12%, to $535,849 as compared to $606,195 a year ago. The
decrease in production and operating expenses was primarily due to lower
production taxes and workover expenses.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, exploration expenses increased
$51,319, or 59%, to $138,252 versus $86,933 a year ago. The increase in
exploration expenses reflect delay rentals paid to maintain leasehold interests
and higher engineering costs.
Dry holes, abandoned and impaired properties expense for the nine months ended
March 31, 2002 was $29,209, which reflects the abandonment costs incurred on the
McEntire lease in Kansas of $27,717. These costs were largely offset by the sale
of tubing on the lease of $24,900 as noted above.
8
Depletion expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2002 was $177,087 versus
$104,959 a year ago. The increase in depletion for both the three and nine month
periods ending March 31, 2002 is attributable to higher capitalized costs on the
Greens Canyon and Turner wells.
The Company's general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
March 31, 2002 decreased $35,159, or 5%, to $659,452 from $694,611. The decrease
in expenses was not attributable to any particular expense category, but
reflects the Company's commitment to reduce expenses during this period of lower
oil and gas revenues.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, interest expense rose $32,035 to
$98,471 from $66,436 a year ago. The increase reflects a higher loan balance
during this nine month period versus a year ago notwithstanding the impact of
generally lower interest rates.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Until fiscal 2000, the Company did not invest in or hold market risk sensitive
or interest rate sensitive instruments and the only currency exchange rate risk
borne by the Company stemmed from the Company's obligations to fund its
international drilling in Australian dollars. As of March 31, 2002, the Company
owns 39,600,000 shares of Victoria Petroleum, N.L. ("VP") Common Stock. The
investment in VP Common Stock is classified as available-for-sale. Net
unrealized gains and losses on the investment are recorded to other
comprehensive income or loss. The VP shares are traded publicly on the
Australian stock exchange and the price for which the Company could sell its VP
shares, which are quoted in prices denominated in Australian dollars, could be
higher or lower than the Company's cost. The Company no longer has currency
exchange risk relating to its own operations, as it no longer participates in
international drilling.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes one or more statements, which state or otherwise indicate
the Company's present belief or expectation concerning future events. Such
statements are forward looking statements on which investors should not rely
because they are subject to a wide variety of contingencies and based on a
number of assumptions, which may not prove to be true. In particular, the
Company's future success is highly dependent on the success of its exploratory
drilling efforts, which cannot be safely predicted. In addition, the Company is
highly dependent upon prevailing prices for petroleum products, its ability to
attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as other risk factors affecting
business generally, such as overall economic conditions, changes in tax and
other laws and the effect of actions taken by competitors and regulatory
authorities.
INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
Inflation has not had a significant effect on the Company's results of
operations. However, the constantly fluctuating price of crude oil and natural
gas materially affects the Company's cash flow, either positively or negatively.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
The Board of Directors of the Company previously declared a dividend
distribution of 10 Warrants for every 100 issued and outstanding shares
of the Company's Common Stock owned by each shareholder of record at
the close of business on February 4, 2000, each Warrant representing
the right to purchase one share of Common Stock at $3.125 per share
until February 4, 2001 (the "Public Warrant"). January 4, 2001, the
Board agreed to extend the Public Warrant exercise period from February
4, 2001 to February 4, 2002 and to reduce the exercise price to $2.50.
On January 24, 2002, the Board again agreed to extend the Public
Warrant exercise period from February 4, 2002 to March 10, 2003 and to
reduce the exercise price from to $1.25.
The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3, which was
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March
10, 2000. The Form S-3 registered the subsequent resale of the Public
Warrants and the sale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the
Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will now expire on March 10, 2003,
unless earlier redeemed by the Company.
On January 10, 2002, the Company began a private placement offering
(the "Offering") of up to 2,000,000 units consisting of one share of
the Company's no par value Common Stock and one warrant (the "Private
Warrant") to purchase one share of Common Stock exercisable at $1.25
per share (the "Unit"). As part of the Offering, on March 28, 2002, the
Company issued 515,000 Units to a related party in exchange for
previously recorded advances and accrued interest of $365,000 by
Victoria Petroleum, N.L., an affiliated company, which had transferred
the debt to the related party. 20,000 Units were also sold to an
officer of the Company for $14,000. The Offering closed on April 26,
2002, with a total of 1,460,000 Units sold for aggregate gross proceeds
of $1,022,000 to ten persons, including the two affiliates. The offer
and sale of the Units were exempt from registration under Sections 4(2)
and 4(6) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rules 505 and 506 of
Regulation D adopted under the Act, as well as exemptions under various
state securities laws, for sales to accredited U.S. purchasers, and
under Regulation S of the Act for the sales to qualified non-U.S.
purchasers. None of the shares of Common Stock, Private Warrants or the
shares of Common Stock underlying the Private Warrants have been
registered.
