Item 1.
Item 1. BUSINESS General Description
CKX Lands, Inc. is a Louisiana corporation organized in 1930 as Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc.,
a Louisiana corporation incorporated in 1930 and headquartered in Lake Charles, Louisiana, is a company which manages real estate holdings involved in oil and gas royalty holdings, timber management and agriculture. Originally formedto receive non-producing mineral royalties spun off by abank to its shareholders,Southwest Louisiana bank. Over the years, as some of the royalties yielded oil and gas income, the Companyhas pursuedused the proceeds to purchase land. On May 17, 2005, the Company changed its name from Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc. to CKX Lands, Inc. The primary reason for the change was to help make clear that the Company is not directly involved in oil and gas exploration or operations. As used herein, the “Company” or “CKX” refers to CKX Lands, Inc.The Company’s shares are listed on the NYSE Alternext US (previously known as American Stock Exchange), under the symbol CKX. As of March 19, 2009, there were 1,942,495 shares outstanding. The Company had a
goalcommon equity public float ofacquiring land-holdingsless than $75 million as of the last business day of the second fiscal quarter. Consequently, the Company is a small reporting company under the Securities Exchange Commission regulations.As a reporting company, CKX is subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and accordingly files its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The Company owns land and mineral interests, all of which are located in Southwest Louisiana.
OperationsTheCompany'sCompany collects incomeis derivedfrom this land in theacreage and mineral interests it owns. The largest sourceform ofincome is fromoil and gasproduction from these properties. The next largest sources are fromroyalties, agriculture rentals and timbergrown on the Company's land.sales. The Company is not involved in the exploration or production of oil andproduction.gas nor does it actively farm its lands. These activities are performed by others for royalties or rentals. Parts of the Company’s land are owned in indivision with other owners. The Company’s ownership share in most of this acreage is one-sixth. For convenience the owners jointly operate an entity known as Walker Louisiana Properties (“WLP”) to manage this acreage. Neither the Companyhas small working interestsnor Walker Louisiana Properties consider themselves to be infour wells, which occurred as a back-in underoil and gas producing activities inasmuch as: (1) they do not search for crude oil or natural gas in their natural states; (2) they do not acquire property for theoriginal mineral leases.purpose of exploration or the removing of oil and gas; and (3) they are not involved in construction, drilling and/or production activities necessary to retrieve oil and gas.Oil and gas royalties are paid by the operators who own the wells. Timber income is paid by the highest bidder of the timber. There are several mills in the immediate area that compete for timber. All of the agriculture income comes from tenants who pay annual cash rents. The prices paid for oil, gas and timber depend on national and international market conditions. Oil and gas revenues were 95.8% of the Company’s total revenues in 2008 and 90.0% in 2007.
The source of all raw materials for the Company is the land itself. Timber income and agriculture income are renewable resources. All oil and gas income will eventually deplete, but we have no access to this data.
The Company does not
anticipate taking a working interest in future production. Industry Segments In addition to anspend any money on Research and Development.The Company does not need government approval of its principal products or services except that the State of Louisiana must approve the size & location of all oil and gas

The Company has
also created "Agriculture Properties"five employees, all of whom are part-time. There are four officers, and"Timber Properties". Included in oil and gas properties revenues are mineral lease payments and payments for seismic work. Note 6 to the Financial Statements on page 25 sets forth information on the business segments. Employees The Company currently employs a total of five persons in a part-time capacity.one clerical person. The Company is subject to no union contracts nor does the Company have any hospitalization, pension,profit sharing, option or deferred compensation
plans. Walker Louisiana Properties employs its own staff, noneprograms. WLP has five full-time employees, and two ofwhomthese employees areCompany officers or directors. Customers The Company had two customers, the sales to which equal or exceed 10%part-time employees of theCompany's totalCompany. One employee of WLP is devoted full-time to agriculture, and one employee of WLP is devoted full-time to timber.Customers
The Company’s customers are those who have mineral leases on the Company’s property or purchase the timber in competitive bids or execute farming leases. The largest customers are the oil and gas operators under the mineral leases. During 2008, the Company received 19% of its revenues
exclusive of revenues paid Walker Louisiana Properties. In 2002, sales tofrom Swift Energy, 17% from Cox&and Perkins,accounted for 71.1% of revenues and sales to15% from Riceland Petroleum,accounted11% from Mayne & Mertz, 6% from Gulfmark Energy, 6% from Kaiser-Francis Oil and 6% from Duncan Oil. Termination of production or cash receipts from any of these fields would have a material adverse effect on the Company.Environmental and Other Governmental Regulations
The operators of the wells are responsible for
14.3% of oilcomplying with environmental andgas revenues. Item 2. PROPERTIESother governmental regulations. However, should an operator abandon a well located on Company land without following prescribed procedure, the land owners could possibly be held responsible.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company
is a co-defendantwas not involved ina lawsuit filed by ownersany legal proceedings as ofeighty acres, which the defendants owned half the minerals. The landowners are asserting that the mineral interest prescribed. A settlement has been reached whereby the Company will receive all moneys held in escrow for their one-half for past production. Production ceased over one year ago. The Company is forfeiting one-half of its ownership of the minerals on the 80 acres to the plaintiff, and the plaintiffs are ratifying the company's remaining ownership. The Company has been notified by the National Pollution Funds Center that the Company, as well as the other various owners of the land managed by Walker Louisiana Properties, together with certain past owners, are jointly and severally liable for $588,843, the cost of an environmental clean-up. The Company is contesting the claim since the damage occurred prior to the Company's ownership and the Company is an innocent landowner. The Company also contends the damage did not come under the National Pollution Funds purview. Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERSDecember 31, 2008.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview
CKX Lands, Inc. began operations in 1930 under the name Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc. It was originally organized as a spin-off by a bank operating in Southwest Louisiana. The purpose of the spin-off was to form an entity to hold non-producing minerals which regulatory authorities required the bank to charge off. Over the years, as some of the mineral interests began producing, the Company used part of the proceeds to acquire land. In 1990, the Company made its largest acquisition when it was one of four purchasers who bought American Airline’s fifty percent undivided interest in approximately 35,000 acres in Southwest Louisiana.
Today most of the Company’s income is derived from mineral production on the
payingland acquired over the years. CKX receives income from seismic permits, mineral leases and the landowner’s portion ofdividends. Item 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Business You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with "Selected Financial Data" and our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Overview Income fromany oil and gasproperties decreased 6.3%production. CKX also receives income from agriculture rents and timber sales. The Company’s activities are passive in that it doesn’t explore for oil and gas, operate wells or farm land. All timber activities are contracted. The Company doesn’t plant and harvest trees, except through contractors.The Company’s income fluctuates as new oil and gas production is discovered on Company land and as wells deplete. Oil and gas activity has increased considerably over prior years due to higher prices and
technology developments, particularly 3-D seismic. With new technology, companies are able to find much smaller pockets of oil and gas as well as drill with a
combinationmuch higher success rate. Most offactors. Incomethese discoveries are small, however, and have a limited life.CKX has small interests in 39 different oil and gas fields. The size of the interest is determined by the Company’s net ownership in the acreage unit for the well. CKX’s interests range from

As the Company does not own or operate the wells,at North English Bayou whichit does not haveproduced most ofaccess to any reserve information.Eventually, the oil and gas
incomeunder the Company’s current land holdings will be depleted. The Company is constantly looking for additional land to be purchased in our immediate area. We are primarily looking for timberland that has mineral potential.Results of Operations
Fiscal Year 2008 Compared to Fiscal Year 2007
Revenues for 2008 were $3,335,874, an increase of 2.4% when compared with 2007 revenues of $3,258,124.
Oil and gas revenues increased by $263,601, or 9.0%, to $3,194,407 in 2008. Oil and gas revenues consist of royalty, lease rental and geophysical revenue. Royalty revenue increased by $227,631, or 8.2%, and lease rentals increased by $30,140, or 20.7%, from 2007. Geophysical revenues increased by $5,830, or 191.5%, from 2007.
Gas production decreased by 38,382 MCF, and the
past three years, depleted and were plugged and abandoned. Calcasieu has a 13% royalty interestaverage gas sales price per MCF increased by 24.8% resulting in a decrease in gas revenue of $81,267. Revenue from oil production increased by $308,897, due to an increase of 43.9% in the average oil sales price and a decrease in production of approximately 3,876 barrels.The following seven fields produced 78% and 82% of the Company’s oil and gas revenues in 2008 and 2007, respectively. This following schedule shows the number of barrels of oil (Bbl Oil) and MCF of gas (MCF Gas) produced in 2008 and 2007.

1,648 1,718 — — All of the decreases were due to depletion. The increase at South Bear Head Creek was due to a new
oil well at North Gordon. This well paid Calcasieu $400,000 after severance taxwell.In 2008 the Company was a lessor in
2002. An injection well has been completed which could extend the life of this well for three to four years. Lease and seismic income has decreased steadily over the last four years. There are twoeleven new mineral leases covering a total of 638.45 gross acres. The Company’s net acres leased in 2008 were 231.48 acres. The new leased acres are located in four different Parishes.During 2008, the Company continued to see a reduction in oil and gas leasing activity over prior years. This is an expected operating result as drilling activity began on
Walker land which have the potential for being drilled. 4a number of leases thus eliminating lease payments. Agriculture income decreased
16.7%by $107,414, or 51.4%, from 2007 due to a decrease in2002right-of-way fees.Timber income decreased by $78,436 to $40,070, a decrease of 66.2% from
2001.2007. This decrease is primarily attributable to a depressed timber market which is related to the slow-down in the housing market.On April 30, 2007, Walker Louisiana Properties completed the sale of 100 subdivision acres in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana with a contract sales price of $1,912,050. The
main crop on companyCompany owns a one-sixth interest in this landis rice. Pricesandgovernment support paymentsreported a gain from this sale of $312,561. This transaction was structured as a “deferred exchange using a qualified intermediary” pursuant to Paragraph 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (1031 Exchange) forrice were at their lowest in years in 2002. Under new regulationsincome tax purposes. Due to the 1031 exchange, a gain of $38,962 was deferred for income tax purposes.On October 24, 2007, the Company completed the sale of approximately 3,495 agricultural acres and certain equipment assets in Cameron Parish, Louisiana for approximately $3,146,000. This transaction was structured as a “deferred exchange using a qualified intermediary” pursuant to Paragraph 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (1031 Exchange) for income tax purposes. The entire sales proceeds were deposited with a qualified intermediary and the gain was deferred during the 1031 Exchange period. In late February 2008, the Company determined that consummation of identified 1031 Exchange properties was not possible and current recognition of the approximate gain of $1,448,900 from this sale was the result.
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2009
The Company continues to actively search for lands that meet our criteria of timberland that has mineral potential. At this time, the Company has no prospects.
Currently, there are 16 non-producing mineral leases covering 1,696.34 gross acres, or 449.43 net acres, and 3 active seismic options to lease covering 1,506.15 gross acres, or 315.58 net acres. The Company believes that there is a good chance that some of these leases will
no longerbeable to qualify for government support payments. As a consequence we are being forced to go to cash rentals on all farm properties insteaddrilled and production discovered. However, the Company is not aware ofcrop-sharing.any current drilling or testing activity.In October 2007, the Company sold approximately 3,495 acres of agriculture land that had produced income of approximately $45,000 per year. We expect agriculture income to
decrease another 25%remain flat in2003. Timber income decreased $108,894. This was due to a combination of reduced sales, lower prices and increased expenses.2009.The Company
has begun a program of reforesting all vacant pasture land and cut-over land. Comparison of 2002 and 2001 Revenues decreased 9.7%expects timber revenues to remain depressed in2002 from 2001 due to decrease in income in each of the Company's segments. Income from operations decreased 14.8% in 2002 from 2001 as costs and expenses increased in each segment. The biggest increase in expenses was in severance taxes. Net income after income taxes was down $136,038 in 2002 from 2001 or 15.6%2009.Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has no long-term liabilities, contingencies or off balance sheet liabilities and no material current liabilities at December 31, 2008. Additional sources of liquidity are the Company’s securities available-for-sale and a
strong liquid position.bank line of credit for $1,000,000.There are no current plans for capital expenditures. However, the Company is always looking to purchase additional land provided it meets the Company’s criteria.
In the opinion of management, current cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalent investments and the available line of credit are adequate for projected operation, possible land purchases and continuation of the regular cash dividend.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include the following items:
Our accounts receivable consist of incomes received after year end for royalties produced prior to year end. When there are royalties that have not been received at the time of the preparation of the financial statements for
months in the prior year, we estimate the amount to be received based on the last month’s royalties that were received from that particular company. We do not maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts because we can confirm virtually all receivables before they are booked as income.
The Company
maintains a strong liquid positionaccounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109)” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.Reforestation expenses are added to
help maintainthedividendtimber asset account andprovidedepleted over seven years. As timber is sold the original cost is amortized based on the volume as compared to the original cost. When we purchase land, the portion that represents the timber value is set up as an asset labeled “timber”.Forward Looking Statements
Certain matters contained in this report are forward-looking statements including, without limitation, the information contained under the heading “Outlook for Fiscal Year 2009” in Item 6 of this report. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Unless legally required, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional information may be obtained by reviewing the information set forth below under “Significant Risk Factors” and information contained in the Company’s reports periodically with the
resourcesSEC.
Item 7A. QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Significant Risk Factors
The Company’s business and operations are subject to
be ablecertain risks and uncertainties, including:Reliance upon Oil and Gas Discoveries
The Company’s most significant risk is its reliance upon others to
purchase real estate that comesperform exploration and development for oil and gas on its land. Future income is dependent on others finding new production on themarketCompany’s land to replace present production as it is depleted. Oil and gas prices as well as new technology will affect the possibility of new discoveries.Commodity Prices
All of the Company’s operating income comes from the sale of commodities produced from its real estate: oil and gas, forest products, and agriculture products. Fluctuations in these commodity prices will directly impact net income. In 2008, average gas prices paid to the Company were 24.8% higher than the average in 2007, and average oil prices were 43.9% higher in 2008 than in 2007. If the average oil and gas prices in 2008 reverted to the 2007 averages, income before income tax would have declined by approximately 33%.
Interest Rate Risks
The Company has no direct exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and minimal direct exposure to interest rates. The Company has an unsecured line of credit with Chase at
an attractive price. Management believes thattheir prime rate, but theCompany's liquidityCompany hasn’t utilized this line andrevenues will be sufficienthas no current plans tomeet its existing capital needs and the needs of its anticipated future operations.

Item 9A (T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports 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 its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) for the Company. In assessing the Company’s ICFR, management follows the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission’s (“COSO”) Internal Control over Financial Reporting—Guidance for Smaller Public Companies Integrated Framework (2006) in assessing the effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR. Management shall determine ICFR ineffective if a material weakness exists in the controls.
Due to the Company’s management inability to assess Walker Louisiana Properties’ ICFR and lack of compensating controls, management has assessed the Company’s ICFR as ineffective. The Company owns a one-sixth interest in WLP and WLP’s activities are material to the Company. WLP prepares cash basis interim financial statements and audited GAAP basis financial statements at year end. At report date, we have not identified a plan or process to remediate the ineffectiveness of the ICFR.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
During the quarter ending December 31, 2008, the Company’s Management followed the COSO Internal Control over Financial Reporting—Guidance for Smaller Public Companies Integrated Framework (2006) when assessing the ICFR. During the quarter ending December 31, 2008, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Statements. 16CALCASIEU REAL ESTATE & OIL CO., INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSStatementsNote 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of business:
The
Company'sCompany’s business is the ownership and management of land. The primary activities consist of leasing its properties formineralminerals (oil and gas) and agriculture and raising timber.Significant accounting
policies:polices:Cash and
cashequivalents:For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include time deposits, certificates of deposit, and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.
Inventory: Inventory consists of harvested crops valued at estimated selling price at the date of the balance sheet.Pervasiveness of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Agricultural revenue: Most agricultural income is derived under U.S. Government subsidy programs. Under these programs, loans are made against crops as harvested. However, delivery of the crops fulfills any further obligation under the loan agreement, and thus revenues are recognized as the harvested crops are delivered. Differences in the price at ultimate sale of the products could result from quantity, grade, and price, and additional revenues are derived at that time. 17NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSInvestment securities:
The Company complies with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities.Securities. Under the provisions of this statement, management must make a determination at the time of acquisition whether certain investments in debt and equity securities are to be held as investments to maturity, held asavailable for sale,available-for-sale, or held for trading. Management, under a policy adopted by the board of directors of the Company, made a determination that all debt and equity securities owned at that date and subject to the provisions of the statement would be classified as held available-for-sale.Under the accounting policies provided for investments classified as held available-for-sale, all such debt securities and equity securities that have readily determinable fair value shall be measured at fair value in the balance sheet. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities shall be excluded from earnings and reported as a net amount (net of income taxes) as a separate component of retained earnings until realized. Realized gains and losses
and declines in value judged to be other than temporaryon available-for-sale securities are included in income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Interest on debt securities is recognized in income as earned, and dividends on marketable equity securities are recognized in income when declared.Declines in the fair value of available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other-than-temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Property and equipment:
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Major additions are capitalized; maintenance and repairs are charged to income currently. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Successful efforts accounting method:CKX Lands, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements—(continued)
Timber:
When timber land is purchased with standing timber, the cost is divided between land and timber based on timber cruises contracted by the Company. The costs of reforestation are capitalized. The timber asset is amortized when the timber is sold based on the percentage of the timber sold from a particular tract applied to the amount capitalized for timber for that tract.
Oil and gas:
Oil and gas income is booked when the Company is notified by the well’s operators as to the Company’s share of the sales proceeds together with the withheld severance taxes. The Company
uses the successful efforts method of accounting for itshas no capitalized costs relating to oil and gasoperations. Under the successful efforts method, theproducing activities and no costsof acquiring mineral interest, drillingfor property acquisition, exploration andequipping successful exploratory wells,development activities.Net Income and
all development wellsDividends per common stock:Net Income and
related facilitiesDividends per common stock arecapitalized. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, lease rentals and the cost of drilling unsuccessful exploratory wells are charged to expense. Due to the Company's small percentage ownership (in relation to the total) of oil 18NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS and gas properties, reserve information is not available to the Company for mineral interests acquired. Depletion of these interests is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods over an estimated life of five to seven years. Acquisition costs of proved mineral interests for which reserve information is available are depleted using the unit-of-production method based on production and estimated proved reserves. Related tangible and intangible costs are depreciated and amortized using the unit-of-production method based on production and estimated proved developed reserves. Earnings per share: Earnings per share isbased on the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during theyears.period.Income taxes:
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.
Comprehensive income: Accounting principles generally requireIn July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies that a tax position must be more likely than not of being sustained before being recognized

Commitments and Contingencies The Company is a co-defendant in a lawsuit filed by previous owners of property that is now partially owned by the Company. In this suit, the Plaintiffs assert that the sale of a strip of property in 1914 created two servitudes, one of which, the co-defendants claim ownership, expired by liberative prescription in 1940. The Company has indicated that it will defend the suit vigorously, and it is anticipated that a motion for summary judgment in favor of the defendants will be filed in the near future. 27NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company has been notified by the National Pollution Funds Center that the Company, as well as the other various owners of the land managed by Walker Louisiana Properties, together with certain past owners, are jointly and severally liable for $588,843, the cost of an environmental clean-up.
