NOTE
1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY
Organization
We are an
independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration,
development production and sale of oil and natural gas properties in North
America. We have interests in properties in Kansas, Louisiana and
Texas.
Index Oil
and Gas Inc. (“Index”, “Index Inc.”, “the Company” or “we”, “us”, or “our”)
was incorporated in March 2004 under the laws of the State of Nevada and is
the parent company with four group subsidiaries: Index Oil & Gas Limited
(“Index Ltd”), a United Kingdom holding company, which provides management
services to the Company, and United States operating subsidiaries; Index Oil
& Gas (USA) LLC (“Index USA”), an operating company; Index Investments North
America Inc. (“Index Investments”); and Index Offshore LLC (“Index Offshore”), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Index Investments and also an operating company.
Index Inc., through its subsidiaries, is engaged in exploration, appraisal,
development, production and sale of oil and natural gas. The Company does not
currently operate any of its properties and sells its oil and gas production to
domestic purchasers.
These
interim financial statements have not been audited. However, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have
been included. Results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the
entire year. In addition, these financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include all disclosures required for financial statements prepared in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These financial statements and notes should be read in
conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated/Combined Financial
Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended March 31, 2008.
Overview
Production
rose approximately 530% from 16.9 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30,
2007 to 106.7 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30,
2008. Correspondingly, revenues increased approximately 844% from
$0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $1.4 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2008. The average price for natural gas
rose from $7.27 per Mcf to $12.09 per Mcf or 66%. The average price
for oil rose 84% from $64.55 per Bbl to $118.90 per Bbl. Overall, the
average price per Mcfe rose 50% from $8.94 per Mcfe to $13.39 per
Mcfe.
Operations
The
Company’s initial exploration project is located in Kansas, and is a very low
risk, low cost, low working interest, and limited upside project and which is
not expected to be a significant contributor to future growth. Our
working interest (“WI”) in the Kansas Area of Mutual Interest ("AMI") wells is
either 5% for wells drilled in Stafford County or 3.25% for wells drilled in
Barton County and the net revenue interest (“NRI”) is either approximately
4.155% or 2.64%, respectively. The Company has committed to a current program of
14 wells for low-risk prospects in Stafford and Barton Counties. To-date, in
this program, the Company has participated in eight wells, of which in June
2008, four are now on production (including one Stafford County well which was
drilled under farm in arrangements and in which Index has a 2.5% WI), one is
completed and three have been plugged and abandoned. The two most recent wells
with a 3.25% working interest and a 2.64% net revenue interest are the Salem
#1-8 well which was completed in April 2008 and the Miller-McReynolds Unit 1-17
which was spudded in April 2008,
completed
and produced 0.4 MMcfe in June 2008. Further activity is expected at
approximately two wells per month dependent on commodity pricing and evaluation
of the program to date. Total net production for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 for all Kansas wells was 4.4 MMcfe (thousand Mcf of natural
gas equivalent).

NOTE
1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY (continued)
The
Company’s onshore drilling program in Louisiana includes its interest in
the Walker 1 discovery well (WI 12.5%, approximate NRI 9.36%) which was recently
recompleted. The Walker 1 well produced 0.1MMcfe for the three months ended June
30, 2008. In April 2007, the Company signed agreements to participate
in the Shadyside prospect, located in St. Mary Parish, Louisiana. Index had an
initial 15% WI in the prospect, reducing to 13.5% after prospect payout. The
Shadyside 1 well was drilled to a total depth of approximately 16,294 feet and
due to non-participation by the former operator, Index now has a 30% working
interest in the well. The well has been hooked up and began flowing
to sales in January 2008 and net production was approximately 35.3 MMcfe for the
three months ended June 30, 2008. Although the Company is considering
the potential of both deeper and shallower prospects on current leases,
Shadyside is considered to be a single well project.
The
Company’s onshore drilling program in Texas includes its interest in Vieman 1
(19.5% WI, approximate NRI 14.56%) in Brazoria County Texas which began
production in February 2007 and has been recompleted. The Vieman
well had net production of 1.8 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30, 2008
and further plans are being evaluated. The Hawkins 1 well (WI 12.5%,
approximate NRI 10.01%), also in Texas, in Matagorda County, began production
into the local pipeline grid in January 2008 and had net production of 6.0 MMcfe
for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The Friedrich Gas Unit 1 (WI
37.5%, approximate NRI 28.125%), in Victoria County, had net production of
approximately 8.6 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30, 2008, while the
Schroeder Gas Unit 1 (WI 37.5%, approximate NRI 28.125%), in Goliad County, had
net production of 0.9 MMcfe during the same period. The operator is
preparing to remediate the Schroeder Gas Unit 1 in order to restore production
levels.
In June
2008, an agreement was reached between the operator and the non-operators of the
Ilse 1 well which encompassed (among others) full, mutual releases of all claims
against all parties, except one, including any claims of the operator against
non-operators for monies allegedly owed under the joint interest billing, and
the assignment of non-operators’ interest in the well to the
operator. No monies were paid in the settlement and a total of $0.3
million in costs accrued at March 31, 2008 were discharged and reversed out of
capital costs.
The
George Cason 1 well, the Cason 2 well and the Cason 3 well, drilled on the Fern
Lake prospect in Nacogdoches County, Texas had net production of approximately
1.6 MMcfe, 3.7 MMcfe and 1.4 MMcfe, respectively for the three months ended June
30, 2008. Index currently has a 25.0% WI and an approximate 18.7% NRI in all
three Cason wells. The Company is currently participating, with other partners,
in geological analyses on other formations encountered in the
wells. The Cason wells are proving to be challenging in terms of
volumes and maintaining production. The operator is currently conducting a
series of workover procedures in the wells in an effort to increase production
levels.

The
Company is participating in an exploration agreement at 20% WI in
the Supple Jack Creek lease area. The first well, HNH Gas Unit 1, targeted
gas in the Edwards Limestone in Lavaca County, Texas. The well reached a total
depth of approximately 15,000 feet, was sidetracked laterally to approximately
16,000 feet and is currently suspended pending further evaluation of potential
logged pay intervals. Subject to results, the Company will evaluate additional
drilling, particularly in a success case. The gas unit designated for the well
covers 566.59 acres. However, the contract AMI for the overall prospect extends
over a much larger area, of which approximately 5,000 gross and net acres are
currently under lease.
The
Ducroz 1 (WI 7.5%, approximate NRI 5.25%), which targets gas in stacked Miocene
objectives, produced 15.1 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30,
2008. Ducroz 1 is considered by the Company to be a single well
project.
The
Outlar 1 (approximate NRI 8.2% before payout, 7.0% after payout) produced of
27.8 MMcfe net for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The Company
views the West Wharton project as potentially significant for the Company as it
has existing leases on up to five well-defined prospects. The second well in
this prospect, Stewart 1 was spudded in May 2008 and reached total depth at
11,922 feet in June 2008. The targeted reservoir section was
penetrated and contained gas-bearing intervals which were deemed to be
sub-commercial. A shallower sand is now being tested and has the
potential to be productive. The Company has also participated in
additional leasing opportunities with the operator.
In July
2007, the Company announced that it has signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement to
acquire a 5.0% WI and approximate 3.5% NRI in the Alligator Bayou exploration
prospect located beneath onshore portions of Brazoria and Matagorda Counties,
Texas. The prospect covers up to several thousand acres. The first well,
Armour-Runnells 1, was spudded in April 2008, is currently being drilled and
targets gas in the deep, high pressure, high temperature Wilcox
formation. The Company anticipates this well to have the highest
potential impact and to be the highest risk well in its portfolio.

2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
Company has provided a discussion of significant accounting policies, estimates
and judgments in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31,
2008.
Principles of
Consolidation/Basis of Presentation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2008 and
March 31, 2008 and for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Index USA, Index
Investments, Index Offshore, Index Inc. and Index Ltd, after eliminating all
significant intercompany accounts and transactions.
Fair Value Measurements
. In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, which
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements (“SFAS 157”). Prior t
o
this
SFAS 157, there were
different definitions of fair value and limited guidance for applying those
definitions in GAAP. SFAS 157 provides the definition to increase consistency
and comparability in fair value measurements and for expanded disclosures about
fair value measurements. SFAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based
measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. SFAS 157 clarifies that market
participant assumptions include assumptions about risk, i.e. the risk inherent
in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value and/or the risk
inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. SFAS 157 expands disclosures
about the use of fair vale to measure assets and liabilities in interim and
annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. The disclosures focus on the
inputs used to measure fair value and for recurring fair value measurements
using significant unobservable inputs, the effect of the measurements on
earnings for the period. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the
reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year,
including the financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal
year. In November 2007, the FASB deferred the implementation of SFAS 157 for
non-financial assets and liabilities until October 2008. The Company
partially adopted this standard on April 1, 2008, as to financial assets and
liabilities and has chosen to defer the implementation of nonfinancial assets
and liabilities in accordance with the FASB deferral in Staff Position FAS
157-2. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on
its consolidated financial position results of operations or cash flows as
the Company has not engaged in any financial activities to which this
standard would apply.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities—including an amendment of FASB Statement No.
115” (“SFAS 159”), permitting entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve
financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate
volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting
measurement. SFAS 159 applies to all entities, including not-for profit
organizations. Most of the provisions of SFAS 159 apply only to entities that
elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115,
“Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, applies to
all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. The Company
also elected to adopt this standard on April 1, 2008, but has not elected
to present assets and liabilities at fair value that were not
required to be measured at fair value prior to adoption of SFAS
159.
Accounting for Bad Debts and
Allowances
Bad debts
and allowances are provided based on historical experience and management's
evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable. The management periodically
evaluates past due or delinquency of accounts receivable in evaluating its
allowance for doubtful accounts. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts at
June 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008.

2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively, consist of prepaid expenses.
Foreign Currency
Translation
The
Company translates the foreign currency financial statements in accordance with
the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, “Foreign
Currency Translation.” Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries whose
functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at
fiscal year-end exchange rates. Revenue and expense items are translated at
average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal year. Translation
adjustments are included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the equity
section of the Consolidated Balance Sheet and totaled $(3,729) and $11,278
as of June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively, and foreign currency

New Accounting
Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
. In May 2008, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities-an Amendment to FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS
161”). Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
, establishes, among other things, the
disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and for hedging activities
(“Statement 131”). SFAS 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of
Statement 133 with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an
enhanced understanding of:
|
a.
|
How
and why an entity uses derivative instruments
|
|
b.
|
How
derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under
Statement 133 and its related interpretations
|
|
c.
|
How
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s
financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows.
|
To meet
those objectives, SFAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and
strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value
amounts of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about
credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements.
SFAS 161 shall be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Early application is
encouraged. SFAS 161 encourages but does not require disclosures for
earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. In years
after initial adoption, this Statement requires comparative disclosures only for
periods subsequent to initial adoption. The adoption of SFAS 161 is
not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows as the Company has not engaged in any
derivative instruments or hedging activities.
The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles
. In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No.
162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS
162”). SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and
the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial
statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP
hierarchy). SFAS 162 shall be effective 60 days following the SEC’s
approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) amendments to
AU Section 411,
The Meaning of
Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles
. An entity that has and continues to follow an
accounting treatment in category (c) or category (d) as of March 15, 1992, need
not change to an accounting treatment in a higher category ((b) or (c)) if its
effective date was before March 15, 1992. For pronouncements whose
effective date is after March 15, 1992, and for entities initially applying an
accounting principle after March 15, 1992 (except for EITF consensus positions
issued before March 16, 1992, which become effective in the hierarchy for
initial application of an accounting principle after March 15, 1993), an entity
shall follow this Statement. Any effect of applying the provisions of
SFAS 162 shall be reported as a change in accounting principle in accordance
with FASB Statement No. 154,
Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections
(“SFAS 154”). An entity shall follow the disclosure
requirements of SFAS 154, and additionally, disclose the accounting principles
that were used before and after the application of the provisions of SFAS 154
and the reason why applying SFAS 154 resulted in a change in accounting
principle. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 162 to have a
material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

Business
Combinations
. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No.
141(R), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141(R)"), which replaces SFAS No. 141.
SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements
for how
an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141(R) also establishes disclosure
requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial
effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 141(R) will have an
impact on accounting for business combinations once adopted, but the
effect will be dependent upon acquisitions after that
time.
Noncontrolling
Interests
. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,
"Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51" ("SFAS 160"), which establishes accounting
and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties
other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the
parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent's ownership
interest and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a
subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS 160 also establishes reporting requirements
that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish
between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling
owners. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008. The Company does not currently have any noncontrolling interests in
subsidiaries , but once adopted, the effects will be dependent upon acquisitions
after that time.

8 - OPTIONS AND WARRANTS AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Board
of Directors of Index Inc. agreed to the adoption of the 2006 Incentive Stock
Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) and approved it on March 14, 2006
effective as of January 20, 2006, providing for the issuance of up to 5,225,000
shares of Common Stock of Index Inc. to officers, directors, employees and
consultants of Index Inc. and/or its subsidiaries. Pursuant to the Stock Option
Plan, Index Inc. allowed for the issuance of options to purchase 4,577,526
shares of Common Stock at $0.35 per share to newly appointed directors and
officers of Index Inc. that had held options to purchase ordinary shares of
Index Ltd. prior to the completion of the acquisition. These options
to purchase shares are fully vested and therefore, no compensation expense was
recorded for these options during the three months ended June 30,
2008.
The
principal terms and conditions of the share options granted under the Stock
Option Plan are that vesting of the options granted occurs in three stages: (1)
50% on January 20, 2006; (2) 25% on January 20, 2007; and (3) 25% on January 20,
2008. The options granted are exercisable at $0.35 per share. Furthermore, the
share options granted under the Share Option Plan are generally non-transferable
other than to a legal or beneficial holder of the options upon the option
holder’s death. The rights to vested but unexercised options cease to be
effective: (1) 18 months after death of the stock options holder; (2) 6 months
after Change of Control of Index Inc.; (3) 12 months after loss of
office due to health
related incapacity or redundancy; or (4) 12 months after the retirement of the
options holder from a position with Index Inc. All options have a 5 year
expiring term.

NOTE 9 - EARNINGS PER
SHARE
Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if
contracts to issue common stock and related stock options were exercised at the
end of the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, excluded
from diluted earnings per share are 5,628,947 and 5,503,947, respectively of
warrants and/or options to acquire common stock and which excluded 475,000 of
out of the money options at June 30, 2008.

11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
For the
month of June 2008 and for the first 18 days of July 2008, Eaglwing, L.P.
purchased substantially all of the crude oil production of certain properties in
Barton and Stafford Counties, KS, in which Index has a working
interest. Our operator then ceased selling crude oil production
to said entity. As publicly reported, on July 22, 2008, SemCrude, L.P.
("SemCrude") and certain of its affiliates, including Eaglwing, L.P.
("Eaglwing"), voluntarily filed for bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware. Index has not received payment for
such sales. Recovery on such accounts receivable will depend on, among other
things, the bankruptcy process governing SemCrude and Eaglwing.
By
demand for Reclamation of Goods dated July 25, 2008, our operator demanded the
return of all such oil received by Eaglwing for the period from June 7, 2008
through July 21, 2008. The demand was made by our operator for itself and
as agent for all interest owners, including Index USA, on whose behalf our
operator sold oil to Eaglwing. Subsequently, Index executed a Letter of
Authorization to our operator to act as its agent and attorney-in-fact to take
certain measures on Index’s behalf in, and in connection with, the Bankruptcy
Proceedings.
The
Company has not made a provision against these sales, pending more information
on the recovery / reclamation process and as the amount is deemed
immaterial.

Overview
Organization
We are an
independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration,
development production and sale of oil and natural gas properties in North
America. We have interests in properties in Kansas, Louisiana and
Texas.
Index Oil
and Gas Inc. (“Index”, Index Inc.”, “the Company” or “we”, “us”, or “our”)
was incorporated in March 2004 under the laws of the State of Nevada and is
the parent company with four group subsidiaries: Index Oil & Gas Limited
(“Index Ltd”), a United Kingdom holding company, which provides management
services to the Company, and United States operating subsidiaries; Index Oil
& Gas (USA) LLC (“Index USA”), an operating company; Index Investments North
America Inc. (“Index Investments”); and Index Offshore LLC (“Index Offshore”), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Index Investments and also an operating company.
Index Inc., through its subsidiaries, is engaged in exploration, appraisal,
development, production and sale of oil and natural gas. The Company does not
currently operate any of its properties and sells its oil and gas production to
domestic purchasers.
Overview
Production
rose approximately 530% from 16.9 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30,
2007 to 106.7 MMcfe for the three months ended June 30,
2008. Correspondingly, revenues increased approximately 844% from
$0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $1.4 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2008. The average price for natural gas
rose from $7.27 per Mcf to $12.09 per Mcf or 66%. The average price
for oil rose 84% from $64.55 per Bbl to $118.90 per Bbl. Overall, the
average price per Mcfe rose 50% from $8.94 per Mcfe to $13.39 per
Mcfe.
Our
financial results depend upon many factors, particularly the price of oil and
gas and our ability to market our production. Commodity prices are affected by
changes in market demands, which are impacted by overall economic activity,
weather, pipeline capacity constraints, inventory storage levels, basis
differentials and other factors. As a result, we cannot accurately predict
future oil and gas prices, and therefore, we cannot determine what effect
increases or decreases will have on our capital program, production volumes and
future revenues. In addition to production volumes and commodity prices, finding
and developing sufficient amounts of oil and gas reserves at economical costs
are critical to our long-term success.
Like all
oil and natural gas exploration and production companies, we face the challenge
of natural production declines. As initial reservoir pressures are depleted, oil
and natural gas production from a given well naturally decreases. Thus, an oil
and natural gas exploration and production company depletes part of its asset
base with each unit of oil or natural gas it produces. We attempt to overcome
this natural decline by drilling and acquiring more reserves than we produce.
Our future growth will depend on our ability to continue to add reserves in
excess of production. We will maintain our focus on costs to add reserves
through drilling and acquisitions as well as the costs necessary to produce our
reserves. Our ability to add reserves through drilling is dependent on our
capital resources and can be limited by many factors, including the ability to
timely obtain drilling permits and regulatory approvals.
RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Three
Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30,
2007
We had a
net loss of $412,803 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to a net
loss of $436,837 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Revenue
increased by $1.3 million, but was offset by general and administrative costs of
$0.8 million, which increased by $0.2 million, increased
depletion of $0.7 million to $0.8 million and lower interest
income on capital previously raised and used in our operations. The
following table summarizes key items of revenue and their related increase
(decrease) for the fiscal three months ended June 30, 2008 and

For the
three months ended June 30, 2008, oil and natural gas sales increased $1.3
million, from the same period in 2007, to $1.4 million. The increase for the
quarter was primarily due to the increase in production volumes of 89.8 MMcfe
from 16.9 MMcfe to 106.7 MMcfe or approximately $1.2 million of the $1.3 million
increase. The increase in volumes of 89.8 MMcfe was primarily due to new
volumes from Outlar of 27.8 MMcfe, Ducroz of 15.1 MMcfe, Shadyside of 35.3
MMcfe, Friedrich of 3.8 MMcfe and Schroeder of 0.9 MMcfe and our Kansas wells
which increased, in total, by 0.4 MMcfe, offset by Walker which decreased 6.1
MMcfe. The Cason wells also contributed 6.7 MMcfe along with Hawkins which
contributed 6.0 MMcfe. Total oil production was 3.0 MBbls and total
natural gas production was 88.7 MMcf.
Additionally,
our revenue variance related to year on year price changes was an increase
with our average price per MMcfe increasing by $4.45, or 50.0%, in fiscal 2008
to $13.39 per Mcfe from $8.94 per Mcfe in fiscal 2007 and also reflecting an
increased proportion of natural gas volumes which had a lower energy equivalent
value. This is based on weighted average gas volumes at an increase in price of
$4.82 per Mcf and weighted average oil volumes at an increase in price per
barrel of $54.33. We benefited from increased product prices in the quarter
ended June 30, 2008, both for oil and natural gas. However, our
production and sales mix has switched to become predominantly natural gas
comprised and the year on year price increase on a Boe basis is less significant
than the absolute price changes for each product, due to natural gas realizing a
lower energy equivalent price compared to crude oil.

Lease
operating expenses increased $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30,
2008 as compared to the same period in 2007. The increase was primarily due to
production from new wells that came on production after the first quarter of
2007 or the Cason wells, Ducroz, Shadyside, Hawkins, Outlar 1, Friedrich and
Schroeder wells, together with new wells that came on production in our Kansas
properties. On a per unit basis, lease operating expenses
increased 35% from $1.32 per Mcfe in 2007 to $1.78 per Mcfe in 2007, despite an
increase in production volumes.
Taxes
other than income increased $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30,
2008 as compared to the same period in 2007 due to higher oil and gas revenues
and on a per unit basis increased $0.22 per Mcfe to $0.93 per
Mcfe. The primary increase is attributable to the increase in
production for new wells located in Texas in the three months ended June 30,
2008. Production taxes are generally assessed as a percentage of
gross oil and/or natural gas sales.
General
and administrative expense, excluding stock-based compensation, for the three
months ended June 30, 2008 increased 51% or $0.2 million to $0.7 million
compared to the same period in 2007, although on a per unit basis, decreased
$21.27 per Mcfe to $6.68 per Mcfe. The primary reason for the
increase was consulting fees and public company costs which increased by
approximately $0.3 million with the implementation of Sarbanes Oxley 404
compliance efforts, continued SEC filing fees, investor relations costs and
other professional fees as the Company pursues growth strategies.
Stock-based
compensation expense was relatively flat or approximately $80,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2008, compared to approximately $97,000 for stock-based
compensation in the same period of 2007. This is primarily due to the timing of
vesting on larger stock-based awards granted in previous years to officers and
directors, including those at the effective date of the reverse merger with
Index Ltd., offset by a smaller awards of stock to officers and consultants in
fiscal year 2007 and 2008. During the three months ended June 30,
2008 and 2007, the Company did not grant any stock options and
warrants. On a per unit basis, stock-based compensation decreased
$4.97 per Mcfe to $0.75 per Mcfe.
Depletion
expense increased $0.7 million from the same period in 2007 to $0.8 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2008. The increase was primarily due to
production from new wells that came on production after the first quarter of
2007 or the Cason wells, Ducroz, Shadyside, Hawkins, Outlar 1, Friedrich and
Schroeder wells, together with new wells that came on production in our Kansas
properties. Depletion for oil and gas properties is calculated
using the unit of production method, which essentially depletes the capitalized
costs associated with the proved properties based on the ratio of production
volume for the current period to total remaining reserve volume for the
evaluated properties. On a per unit basis, depletion expense
increased from $4.34 per Mcfe to $7.18 per Mcfe.
Interest
income and other decreased $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008
compared to the same period 2007. This decrease is due to interest income earned
on an equity fund raising in prior fiscal years.
There was
no provision for income taxes for the fiscal three months ended 2008 and 2007
due to a 100% valuation allowance recorded for the three months ended June 30,
2008 and 2007, respectively on the total tax provision as the Company believed
that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be utilized during the
next year.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operating
cash flow fluctuations were substantially driven by commodity prices and changes
in our production volumes. Prices for oil and gas have historically been subject
to seasonal influences characterized by peak demand and higher prices in the
winter heating season for natural gas and summer travel for oil; however, the
impact of other risks and uncertainties have influenced prices throughout the
recent years. Working capital was substantially influenced by these variables.
Fluctuation in cash flow may result in an increase or decrease in our capital
and exploration expenditures. See Results of Operations for a review of the
impact of prices and volumes on sales. Cash flows continued to be used in
operating activities, inclusive of working capital movements, and did not
contribute to funding exploration and development expenditures. See below for
additional discussion and analysis of cash flow.

Operating
Activities
Net cash
outflow from operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2008
was $0.1 million which was a decrease in use of cash of $0.1 million from $0.2
million net cash outflow during the three months ended June 30, 2007. The
quarter ended June 30, 2008 generated positive cash flow from operating
activities prior to the impact of negative working capital movements, which
netted a small net cash outflow at the operating level.
Investing
Activities
The
primary driver of cash used in investing activities was capital
spending.
Cash used
in investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $0.3
million, which was a decrease of $1.0 million from $1.3 million of cash used in
investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease
was primarily due to decreased exploration and development activity in the three
months ended June 30, 2008 versus June 30, 2007. Current period
capital spending was primarily on the Alligator Bayou prospect of approximately
$0.3 million and the Armour-Runnells 1 well of $0.3 million, offset by the
reversal of costs on the Ilse 1 well of approximately $0.3
million. The activity included in prior year capital spending was
primarily for drilling operations on the Cason 1 well of $0.3 million, initial
combined expenditures on the Shadyside and Alligator Bayou prospects of $0.5
million and an aggregate of spending on other projects and wells of $0.5
million.
Financing
Activities
There was
no cash used or provided by financing activities during the three months ended
June 30, 2008 as no proceeds were received for capital transactions and no
financing or debt transactions occurred. During the three
months ended June 30, 2007, a director exercised a total of 66,662 warrants at a
price of $0.14 for a total of $9,333 and a total of 66,662 shares of common
stock, $0.001 par value, were issued.
Management
believes that we may have the ability to finance through new debt or equity
offerings, if necessary, our capital requirements, including
acquisitions.
As of
June 30, 2008 and 2007, our common stock is the only class of stock outstanding
and we have no outstanding long-term debt financing.
Based on
our current cash resources and other current assets, management believes we have
sufficient liquidity to fund operations for the next twelve months. We are
contemplating additional debt and/or equity financing transactions that, if
successful, are expected to sufficiently fund expenditures for potential
acquisitions and other discretionary expansions of our business. We do not
currently have any commitments for such financing and there is no assurance that
we will be successful in obtaining such funds. If we cannot obtain additional
financing, we will have to significantly curtail our acquisition plans and
possibly our operations.
Contractual
Obligations
We have
no material long-term commitments associated with our capital expenditure plans
or operating agreements. Consequently, we believe we have a significant degree
of flexibility to adjust the level of such expenditures as circumstances
warrant. Our level of capital expenditures will vary in future periods depending
on the success we experience in our acquisition, developmental and exploration
activities, oil and gas price conditions and other related economic factors.
Currently no sources of liquidity or financing are provided by off-balance sheet
arrangements or transactions with unconsolidated, limited-purpose
entities.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
As of
June 30, 2008, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Plan
of Operation for Fiscal Year 2009
On an annual basis, we generally expect
to fund most of our capital and exploration activities, including oil and gas
property acquisitions, with cash generated from operations and from equity
financings. We have budgeted for capital expenditures relating to continuing
work programs on certain of our oil and gas properties described in the Results
of Operations
.
Inflation
In the
opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the operations
of the Company.
Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Oil
and gas prices fluctuate widely, and low prices for an extended period of time
are likely to have a material adverse impact on our business.
Our
operating revenues, operating results, financial condition and ability to borrow
funds or obtain additional capital depend substantially on prevailing prices for
gas and oil. Declines in oil and gas prices may materially adversely affect our
financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and operating
results. Lower oil and gas prices may also reduce the amount of oil and gas that
we can produce economically. Historically, oil and gas prices and markets have
been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely and they are likely to continue to
be volatile.
Prices
for oil and gas are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor
changes in the supply of and demand for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a
variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors
include:
|
•
|
|
The
domestic and foreign supply of oil and gas;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
The
level of consumer product demand;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Weather
conditions;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Political
conditions in oil producing regions, including the Middle
East;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
The
ability of the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting
Countries to agree to and maintain oil price and production
controls;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
The
price of foreign imports;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Actions
of governmental authorities;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Domestic
and foreign governmental regulations;
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
The
price, availability and acceptance of alternative fuels;
and
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Overall
economic conditions.
|
These
factors make it impossible to predict with any certainty the future prices of
oil and gas.
We do not
use hedges at this time to reduce price volatility, help ensure that we have
adequate cash flow to fund our capital programs and manage price risks and
returns on some of our acquisitions and drilling programs. This policy could
change in the future.
Fair
Market Value of Financial Instruments
The
estimated fair values for financial instruments under FASB Statement
No. 107,
Disclosures
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
, are determined at discrete
points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve
uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value
of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates
their carrying value due to their short-term nature.
Interest
Sensitivity
Since we
do not have any long-term debt subject to variable interest rates, the Company
is not exposed to interest rate sensitivity at June 30, 2008.
Item
4T. Controls and Procedures.
Management’s
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In
accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the
period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of June 30, 2008 to provide reasonable assurance
that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’
s rules and forms.
There was
no change in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these
controls during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
PART
II
OTHER
INFORMATION
Item
1. Legal Proceedings.
From time
to time we may be a defendant and plaintiff in various legal proceedings arising
in the normal course of our business. We are currently not a party to any
material pending legal proceedings or government actions, including any
bankruptcy, receivership, or similar proceedings. In addition, management is not
aware of any known litigation or liabilities involving the operators of our
properties that could affect our operations. Should any liabilities be incurred
in the future, they will be accrued based on management’s best estimate of the
potential loss. As such, there is no adverse effect on our consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flow at this time.
Furthermore, Management of the Company does not believe that there are any
proceedings to which any director, officer, or affiliate of the Company, any
owner of record of the beneficially owned more than five percent of the common
stock of the Company, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate
of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or has a
material interest adverse to the Company.
For the
month of June 2008 and for the first 18 days of July 2008, Eaglwing, L.P.
purchased substantially all of the crude oil production of certain properties in
Barton and Stafford Counties, Kansas, in which Index has a working
interest. Our operator then ceased selling crude oil production
to said entity. As publicly reported, on July 22, 2008, SemCrude, L.P.
("SemCrude") and certain of its affiliates, including Eaglwing, L.P.
("Eaglwing"), voluntarily filed for bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware. Index has not received payment for
such sales. Recovery on such accounts receivable will depend on, among other
things, the bankruptcy process governing SemCrude and Eaglwing.
By demand
for Reclamation of Goods dated July 25, 2008, our operator demanded the return
of all such oil received by Eaglwing for the period from June 7, 2008 through
July 21, 2008. The demand was made by our operator for itself and as agent
for all interest owners, including Index USA, on whose behalf our operator sold
oil to Eaglwing. Subsequently, Index executed a Letter of Authorization to
our operator to act as its agent and attorney-in-fact to take certain measures
on Index’s behalf in, and in connection with, the Bankruptcy
Proceedings.
Item
