Viking Energy Group, Inc.~~, is sometimes referred to hereinafter as "Viking Energy"~~ (“Viking” or the ~~"Company."~~“Company”) is an independent exploration and production company engaged in the sale of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, focused on the acquisition and development of oil and natural gas properties in the Gulf Coast and Mid-Continent regions of the United States. The Company ~~was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on May 3, 1989~~owns oil and ~~remained inactive until June 27, 1998. After several name changes, the~~gas leases in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Kansas. The Company ~~merged~~targets under-valued assets with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary, SinoCubate, Inc., which was formed in the State of Nevada on September 11, 2008. The merger resulted in a change of name to SinoCubate, Inc., and a change in the state of incorporation of the Company to Nevada. On June 13, 2012, the Company changed its name to Viking Investments Group, Inc., and the Company's ticker symbol was changed to "VKIN." On March 17, 2017, the Company changed its name to Viking Energy Group, Inc.realistic appreciation potential.

The Company's business plan is to engage in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties, both individually and through collaborative partnerships with other companies in this field of endeavor. On March 8, 2016, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Viking Oil & Gas (Canada) ULC, in Alberta, Canada, to hold its Canadian oil and gas interests. On August 30, 2016, the Company organized a wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Petroleum, LLC (“Mid-Con Petroleum”), a Kansas limited liability company, to hold oil and gas interests in the central United States. On August 25, 2017, the Company organized another wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Drilling, LLC (“Mid-Con Drilling”), a Kansas limited liability company, to hold additional oil and gas interests in the central United States. On December 27, 2017, the Company organized a third wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Development, LLC (“Mid-Con Development”), a Kansas limited liability company, to hold additional oil and gas interests in the central United States. In 2016 and 2017, the Company acquired ~~numerous~~ oil and gas interests in Kansas through these subsidiaries, and in December of 2017, the Company acquired Petrodome Energy, LLC, a Texas limited liability company based in Houston, Texas, with interests in oil and gas leases in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. During November, 2018, the Company organized created, Ichor Energy Holdings, LLC, (a Nevada limited liability company), Ichor Energy, LLC (a Nevada limited liability company), Ichor Energy (TX), LLC (a Texas limited liability company), and Ichor Energy (LA), LLC (a Louisiana limited liability company) to facilitate the acquisition and ownership of additional oil and gas interests in Texas and Louisiana. On December 28, 2018, the Company completed an acquisition of additional oil and gas interests in Texas and Louisiana, and in connection therewith: (i) Ichor Energy (LA), LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ichor Energy LLC, acquired all of the purchased assets located in Louisiana; and (ii) Ichor Energy (TX), LLC, an initially wholly-owned subsidiary of Ichor Energy, acquired all of the purchased assets located in Texas. On February 3, 2020, the Company completed an acquisition of additional oil and gas interests in Texas and Louisiana through a Nevada subsidiary, Elysium Energy Holdings, LLC (“Elysium Holdings”), and assigned a portion of its membership interests in that subsidiary to Camber Energy, Inc. (“Camber”) in connection with acquisition financing secured from Camber at that time. On December 23, 2020, as described below in connection with Camber’s Acquisition, Camber assigned its Elysium interests back to Viking, and Elysium became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

On January 5, 2021, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Nevada to effect a reverse split of our common stock at a ratio of 1-for-9. As a result of the reverse stock split, each nine (9) pre-split shares of common stock outstanding were combined into one (1) new share of common stock. Unless otherwise stated, all share and per share numbers in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and included in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

On December 23, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Camber, pursuant to which Camber acquired (“Camber’s Acquisition”) 26,274,510 shares of Viking common stock (“Camber’s Viking Shares”), constituting 51% of the common stock of Viking, in consideration of (i) Camber’s payment of $10,900,000 to Viking (the “Cash Purchase Price”), and (ii) cancelation of $9,200,000 in promissory notes issued by Viking to Camber (“Camber’s Viking Notes”). Pursuant to the purchase agreement, Viking is obligated to issue additional shares of Viking common stock to Camber to ensure that Camber shall own at least 51% of the common stock of Viking through July 1, 2022.

In connection with Camber’s Acquisition, the Company and Camber terminated their previous merger agreement, dated August 31, 2020, as amended, and Camber assigned its membership interests in one of Viking’s subsidiaries, Elysium Energy Holdings, LLC, back to Viking. Also in connection with Camber’s Acquisition, effective December 23, 2020, Camber (i) borrowed $12,000,000 from an institutional investor; (ii) issued the investor a promissory note in the principal amount of $12,000,000, accruing interest at the rate of 10% per annum and maturing December 11, 2022 (the “Camber Investor Note”); (iii) granted the Investor a first-priority security interest in Camber’s Viking Shares and Camber’s other assets pursuant to a pledge agreement and a general security agreement, respectively; and (iv) entered into an amendment to Camber’s $6,000,000 promissory note previously issued to the investor dated December 11, 2020 (the “Additional Camber Investor Note”), amending the acceleration provision of the note to provide that the note repayment obligations would also not accelerate if Camber has increased its authorized capital stock by March 11, 2021 (and Camber increased its authorized capital stock in February of 2021 as required). In order to close Camber’s Acquisition, effective December 23, 2020, Viking entered into a Guaranty Agreement, guaranteeing repayment of the Camber Investor Note and the Additional Camber Investor Note.

On December 23, 2020, the Camber Investor Note was funded, and Viking and Camber closed Camber’s Acquisition, with Camber paying the Cash Purchase Price to Viking and cancelling Camber’s Viking Notes, and Viking issuing Camber’s Viking Shares. At the closing, James Doris and Frank Barker, Jr., Viking’s CEO and CFO, were appointed the CEO and CFO of Camber, and Mr. Doris was appointed a member of the Board of Directors of Camber.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries engaged in any research and development activities during ~~2017.~~2020. The Company does not manufacture any products or engage in any activity that requires compliance with environmental laws except as described elsewhere herein.

~~With the acquisition of Petrodome, the~~The Company now has ~~6 full time~~9 fulltime employees, all working at the Company’s office in Houston, Texas. Outside of the Houston operation, the Company continues to retain outside consultants as needed, involved in business development, business analysis, financial consulting, web programming and designing, execution and support of the Company's business.

The Company provides its annual report that includes its audited financial information to its shareholders upon written request. The Company also makes its financial information equally available to any interested parties or investors through compliance with the disclosure rules of the Exchange Act. The Company is subject to disclosure filing requirements including filing Form 10-K's annually and Form 10-Q's quarterly. In addition, the Company files Form 8-K and other proxy and information statements from time to time as required.

The public may read and copy any materials that the Company files with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains a website (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

The Company, as a smaller reporting company (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), is not required to furnish information required by this item. However, the following important factors among others, could cause our actual operating results to differ materially from those indicated or suggested by forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-K or presented elsewhere by management from time to time.

There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

Our independent accounting firm has added an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinion issued in connection with the financial statements. We cannot provide our shareholders any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the generation of revenue, the sale of our common stock, or through financing to sustain the Company over the next twelve months. We do not have enough cash on hand to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. As discussed in Note 1 to our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the facts that we have generally had net losses and a working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Oil and gas price fluctuations in the market may adversely affect the results of our operations.

Our profitability, cash flows and the carrying value of our oil and natural gas properties are highly dependent upon the market prices of oil and natural gas. ~~Substantially all~~A significant portion of our sales of oil and natural gas, if any, are made in the spot market, or pursuant to contracts based on spot market prices, and not pursuant to long-term, fixed-price contracts. Accordingly, the prices received for our oil and natural gas production are dependent upon numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include the level of consumer product demand, governmental regulations and taxes, the price and availability of alternative fuels, the level of foreign imports of oil and natural gas and the overall economic environment.

Historically, the oil and natural gas markets have proven cyclical and volatile as a result of factors that are beyond our control. Any additional declines in oil and natural gas prices or any other unfavorable market conditions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Actual quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves and future cash flows from those reserves most likely will vary from our estimates.

Estimating accumulations of oil and gas is complex. The process relies on interpretations of available geological, geophysical, engineering and production data. The extent, quality and reliability of this data can vary. The process also requires certain economic assumptions, some of which are mandated by the SEC, such as oil and gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. The accuracy of a reserve estimate is a function of:

Estimates of proved reserves prepared by others might differ materially from our estimates. Actual quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves, future production, oil and gas prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures and operating expenses most likely will vary from our estimates. Any significant variance could materially affect the quantities and net present value of our reserves. In addition, we may adjust estimates of proved reserves to reflect production history, results of exploration and development and prevailing oil and gas prices. Our reserves also may be susceptible to drainage by operators on adjacent properties.

Our operations will require significant expenditures of capital that may not be recovered.

We require significant expenditures of capital to locate and develop producing properties and to drill exploratory and exploitation wells. In conducting exploration, exploitation and development activities for a particular well, the presence of unanticipated pressure or irregularities in formations, miscalculations or accidents may cause our exploration, exploitation, development and production activities to be unsuccessful, potentially resulting in abandonment of the well. This could result in a total loss of our investment. In addition, the cost and timing of drilling, completing and operating wells is difficult to predict.

Compliance with, or breach of, environmental laws can be costly and could limit our operations.

Our operations will be subject to numerous and frequently changing laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. Any properties we might own for the exploration and production of oil and gas and the wastes disposed on these properties may be subject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, similar state laws, and similar Canadian laws. Under such laws, we could be required to remove or remediate previously released wastes or property contamination. Laws and regulations protecting the environment have generally become more stringent and may, in some cases, impose "strict liability" for environmental damage. Strict liability means that we may be held liable for damage without regard to whether we were negligent or otherwise at fault. Environmental laws and regulations may expose us to liability for the conduct of or conditions caused by others or for acts that were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time they were performed. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the imposition of administrative, civil and criminal penalties.

Although we believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with existing requirements of governmental bodies, our ability to conduct continued operations is subject to satisfying applicable regulatory and permitting controls. Our current permits and authorizations and ability to get future permits and authorizations may be susceptible on a going forward basis, to increased scrutiny, greater complexity resulting in increased costs, or delays in receiving appropriate authorizations.

We are subject to changing laws and regulations and other governmental actions that can significantly and adversely affect our business.

Federal, state, local, territorial and foreign laws and regulations relating to tax increases and retroactive tax claims, disallowance of tax credits and deductions, expropriation or nationalization of property, mandatory government participation, cancellation or amendment of contract rights, and changes in import and export regulations, limitations on access to exploration and development opportunities, as well as other political developments may adversely affect our operations.

The oil and gas we produce may not be readily marketable at the time of production.

Crude oil, natural gas, condensate and other oil and gas products are generally sold to other oil and gas companies, government agencies and other industries. The availability of ready markets for oil and gas that we might discover and the prices obtained for such oil and gas depend on many factors beyond our control, including:

Natural gas associated with oil production is often not marketable due to demand or transportation limitations and is often flared at the producing well site. Pipeline facilities do not exist in certain areas of exploration and, therefore, we intend on utilizing trucks to transport any oil that is discovered.

The price of oil and natural gas has historically been volatile. If it were to decrease substantially, our projections, budgets and revenues would be adversely affected, potentially forcing us to make changes in our operations.

Our future financial condition, results of operations and the carrying value of any oil and natural gas interests we acquire will depend primarily upon the prices paid for oil and natural gas production. Oil and natural gas prices historically have been volatile, during calendar 2020 have significantly decreased, and likely will continue to be volatile in the future, especially given current world geopolitical conditions. Our cash flows from operations are highly dependent on the prices that we receive for oil and natural gas. This price volatility also affects the amount of our cash flows available for capital expenditures and our ability to borrow money or raise additional capital. The prices for oil and natural gas are subject to a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors include:

These factors as well as the volatility of the energy markets generally make it extremely difficult to predict future oil and natural gas price movements with any certainty. Declines in oil and natural gas prices affect our revenues, and could reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that we can produce economically. Accordingly, such declines could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, oil and natural gas reserves and the carrying values of our oil and natural gas properties. If the oil and natural gas industry experiences significant price declines, we may be unable to make planned expenditures, among other things. If this were to happen, we may be forced to abandon or curtail our business operations, which would cause the value of an investment in us to decline in value, or become worthless.

Downturns and volatility in global economies and commodity and credit markets may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Viking’s results of operations are materially adversely affected by the conditions of the global economies and the credit, commodities and stock markets. Among other things, Viking has recently been adversely impacted, and anticipates continuing to be adversely impacted, due to a global reduction in consumer demand for oil and gas, and consumer lack of access to sufficient capital to continue to operate their businesses or to operate them at prior levels. In addition, a decline in consumer confidence or changing patterns in the availability and use of disposable income by consumers can negatively affect the demand for oil and gas and as a result Viking’s results of operations.

We may be forced to write-down material portions of their assets if low oil prices continue.

The recent COVID-19 outbreak has led to low oil prices. A continued period of low prices may force us to incur material write-downs of our oil and natural gas properties, which could have a material effect on the value of our properties and cause the value of our securities to decline in value.

Because of the inherent dangers involved in oil and gas operations, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our business operations, which could force us to expend a substantial amount of money in connection with litigation and/or a settlement.

The oil and natural gas business ~~involves~~involve a variety of operating hazards and risks such as well blowouts, pipe failures, casing collapse, explosions, uncontrollable flows of oil, natural gas or well fluids, fires, spills, pollution, releases of toxic gas and other environmental hazards and risks. These hazards and risks could result in substantial losses to us from, among other things, injury or loss of life, severe damage to or destruction of property, natural resources and equipment, pollution or other environmental damage, cleanup responsibilities, regulatory investigation and penalties and suspension of operations. In addition, we may be liable for environmental damages caused by previous owners of property purchased and leased by us. As a result, substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities may be incurred, the payment of which could reduce or eliminate the funds available for exploration, development or acquisitions or result in the loss of our properties and/or force us to expend substantial monies in connection with litigation or settlements. We currently have no insurance to cover such losses and liabilities, and even if insurance is obtained, there can be no assurance that it will be adequate to cover any losses or liabilities. We cannot predict the availability of insurance or the availability of insurance at premium levels that justify our purchase. The occurrence of a significant event not fully insured or indemnified against could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and operations. We may elect to self-insure if management believes that the cost of insurance, although available, is excessive relative to the risks presented. In addition, pollution and environmental risks generally are not fully insurable. The occurrence of an event not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, which could lead to any investment in us becoming worthless.

We will be subject to operating hazards normally associated with the exploration and production of oil and gas, including hurricanes, blowouts, explosions, oil spills, cratering, pollution, earthquakes, labor disruptions and fires. The occurrence of any such operating hazards could result in substantial losses to us due to injury or loss of life and damage to or destruction of oil and gas wells, formations, production facilities or other properties. We do not maintain insurance coverage for matters that may adversely affect our operations, including war, terrorism, nuclear reactions, government fines, treatment of waste, blowout expenses, wind damage and business interruptions. Losses and liabilities arising from uninsured or underinsured events could reduce our revenues or increase our costs. There can be no assurance that any insurance we do obtain will be adequate to cover losses or liabilities associated with operational hazards. We cannot predict the continued availability of insurance, or its availability at premium levels that justify its purchase.

We face strong competition from larger oil and gas companies, which could result in adverse effects on our business.

The petroleum exploration and production business is highly competitive. Many of our competitors have substantially larger financial resources, staffs and facilities. Our competitors in the United States and Canada include numerous major oil and gas exploration and production companies. Additionally, other companies engaged in our line of business may compete with us from time to time in obtaining capital from investors. Competitors include larger companies which, in particular, may have access to greater resources, may be more successful in the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and may conduct their own refining and petroleum marketing operations, which may give them a competitive advantage. Actual or potential competitors may be strengthened through the acquisition of additional assets and interests. Additionally, there are numerous companies focusing their resources on creating fuels and/or materials which serve the same purpose as oil and gas, but are manufactured from renewable resources.

Our estimates of the volume of reserves could have flaws, or such reserves could turn out not to be commercially extractable. as a result, our future revenues and projections could be incorrect.

Estimates of reserves and of future net revenues prepared by different petroleum engineers may vary substantially depending, in part, on the assumptions made and may be subject to adjustment either up or down in the future. Our actual amounts of production, revenue, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses, and quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves may vary substantially from the estimates. Oil and gas reserve estimates are necessarily inexact and involve matters of subjective engineering judgment. In addition, any estimates of our future net revenues and the present value thereof are based on assumptions derived in part from historical price and cost information, which may not reflect current and future values, and/or other assumptions made by us that only represent our best estimates. If these estimates of quantities, prices and costs prove inaccurate, we may be unsuccessful in expanding our oil and gas reserves base with our acquisitions. Additionally, if declines in and instability of oil and gas prices occur, then write downs in the capitalized costs associated with any oil and gas assets we obtain may be required. Because of the nature of the estimates of our reserves and estimates in general, we can provide no assurance that reductions to our estimated proved oil and gas reserves and estimated future net revenues will not be required in the future, and/or that our estimated reserves will be present and/or commercially extractable. If our reserve estimates are incorrect, the value of our common stock could decrease and we may be forced to write down the capitalized costs of our oil and gas properties.

Our business will suffer if we cannot obtain or maintain necessary licenses.

Our operations will require licenses, permits and in some cases renewals of licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. Our, or our partners', ability to obtain, sustain or renew such licenses and permits on acceptable terms is subject to change in regulations and policies and to the discretion of the applicable governments, among other factors. Our inability to obtain, or our loss of or denial of extension of, any of these licenses or permits could hamper our ability to produce revenues from our operations.

Our operations ~~are~~may be subject to various litigation matters in the future that could have an adverse effect on our business.

From time to time, we may become a defendant in various litigation matters. The nature of our operations exposes us to further possible litigation claims, including litigation relating to climate change in the future. There is risk that any matter in litigation could be adversely decided against us regardless of our belief, opinion and position, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Litigation is highly costly and the costs associated with defending litigation could also have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

We may be affected by global climate change or by legal, regulatory, or market responses to such change.

The growing political and scientific sentiment is that increased concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are influencing global weather patterns. Changing weather patterns, along with the increased frequency or duration of extreme weather conditions, could impact the availability or increase the cost to produce our products. Additionally, the sale of our products can be impacted by weather conditions.

Concern over climate change, including global warming, has led to legislative and regulatory initiatives directed at limiting ~~the~~ greenhouse gas emissions. For example, proposals that would impose mandatory requirements on greenhouse gas emissions continue to be considered by policy makers in the provinces, states or territories where we ~~operate in.~~operate. Laws enacted that directly or indirectly affect our oil and gas production could impact our business and financial results.

If oil or natural gas prices decrease or drilling efforts are unsuccessful, we may be required to record ~~writedowns~~write-downs of our oil and natural gas properties.

We could be required to write down the carrying value of certain of our oil and natural gas properties. Write-downs may occur when oil and natural gas prices are low, or if we have downward adjustments to our estimated proved reserves, increases in our estimates of operating or development costs, deterioration in drilling results or mechanical problems with wells where the cost to re-drill or repair is not supported by the expected economics.

Accounting rules require that the carrying value of oil and natural gas properties be periodically reviewed for possible impairment. Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized oil and natural gas property costs less accumulated depletion, net of deferred income taxes, may not exceed a ceiling amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and natural gas reserves plus the cost of unproved properties not subject to amortization (without regard to estimates of fair value), or estimated fair value, if lower, of unproved properties that are subject to amortization. Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, which is tested on a quarterly basis, an impairment is recognized. While an impairment charge reflects our long-term ability to recover an investment, reduces our reported earnings and increases our leverage ratios, it does not impact cash or cash flow from operating activities.

Our future success depends on our ability to replace reserves that are produced.

Because the rate of production from oil and natural gas properties generally declines as reserves are depleted, our future success depends upon our ability to economically find or acquire and produce additional oil and natural gas reserves. Except to the extent that we acquire additional properties containing proved reserves, conduct successful exploration and development activities, or, through engineering studies, identify additional behind-pipe zones or secondary recovery reserves, our proved reserves will decline as our reserves are produced. Future oil and natural gas production, therefore, is highly dependent upon our level of success in acquiring or finding additional reserves that are economically recoverable. We cannot assure you that we will be able to find or acquire and develop additional reserves at an acceptable cost.

We may acquire significant amounts of unproved property to further our development efforts. Development and exploratory drilling and production activities are subject to many risks, including the risk that no commercially productive reservoirs will be discovered. We may acquire both proved and producing properties as well as undeveloped acreage that we believe will enhance growth potential and increase our earnings over time. However, we cannot assure you that all of these properties will contain economically viable reserves or that we will not abandon our initial investments. Additionally, we cannot assure you that unproved reserves or undeveloped acreage that we acquire will be profitably developed, that new wells drilled on our properties will be productive or that we will recover all or any portion of our investments in our properties and reserves.

Our lack of industry and geographical diversification may increase the risk of an investment in our company.

We operate in the oil and gas sector and our leases are located in North America in ~~Alberta, Canada,~~ Kansas, ~~Missouri,~~ Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. This lack of geographic diversification may make our holdings more sensitive to economic developments within a regional area, which may result in reduced rates of return or higher rates of default than might be incurred with a company that is more geographically diverse.

Our business depends on oil and natural gas transportation and processing facilities and other assets that are owned by third parties.

The marketability of our oil and natural gas depends in part on the availability, proximity and capacity of pipeline systems, processing facilities, oil trucking fleets and rail transportation assets owned by third parties. The lack of available capacity on these systems and facilities, whether as a result of proration, physical damage, scheduled maintenance or other reasons, could result in the delay or discontinuance of development plans for our properties. The curtailments arising from these and similar circumstances may last from a few days to several months.

Our leasehold acreage is subject to leases that will expire over the next several years unless production is established or maintained or the leases are extended.

Some of our acreage is currently held by production or held by operations, but some is not. Unless production in paying quantities is established or operations are commenced on units containing these latter leases during their terms, those leases may expire. Likewise, if we are unable to maintain production on acreage held by production or operations, those leases may expire. If our leases expire and we are unable to renew the leases, we will lose our right to develop or utilize the related properties.

Deficiencies of title to our leased interests could significantly affect our financial condition.

We, or our partners, often incur the expense of a title examination prior to acquiring oil and natural gas leases or undivided interests in oil and natural gas leases or other developed rights. If an examination of the title history of a property reveals that an oil or natural gas lease or other developed rights have been purchased in error from a person who is not the owner of the mineral interest desired, our interest would substantially decline in value or be eliminated. In such cases, the amount paid for such oil or natural gas lease or leases or other developed rights may be lost.

We have not established an effective system of internal control over our financial reporting, and if we fail to maintain such internal control, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, and current and potential stockholders may lose confidence in our financial reporting.

We have not established and maintained adequate and effective internal control over financial reporting that would provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We are, however, required to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose any changes and material weaknesses in those internal controls.

Any failure to maintain adequate internal controls could adversely impact our ability to report our financial results on a timely and accurate basis. If our financial statements are not accurate, investors may not have a complete understanding of our operations. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis as required by the SEC and the Capital Market, we could face severe consequences from those authorities. In either case, there could result a material adverse effect on our business. Ineffective internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

The Company currently has limited funds and the lack of additional funds may negatively impact the Company's ability to pursue its business strategy to conduct operations in the oil and gas industry and to acquire, invest in and/or provide professional advisory and consulting services to companies undergoing or anticipating periods of rapid growth. Even if the Company's funds prove to be sufficient to provide such services or to acquire an interest in, or complete a transaction with, an entity, the Company may not have enough capital to exploit the opportunity. The ultimate success of the Company may depend upon its ability to raise additional capital. The Company may investigate the availability, source, or terms that might govern the acquisition of additional capital but will not do so until it determines a need for additional financing. If additional capital is needed, there is no assurance that funds will be available from any source or, if available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company. If not available, the Company's operations will be limited to those that can be financed with its modest capital.

The Company's securities may be subject to a SEC rule that imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers or accredited investors. For purposes of the rule, the phrase "accredited investors" means, in general terms, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000, or individuals having a net worth, or joint net worth with spouse, in excess of $1,000,000 excluding the value of the person's primary residence or having an annual income that exceeds $200,000 (or that, when combined with a spouse's income, exceeds $300,000). For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities and also may affect the ability of purchasers in an offering to sell their securities in any market that might develop.

In addition, the SEC has adopted a number of rules to regulate "penny stocks." Such rules include Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or the Exchange Act. Because the securities of the Company may constitute "penny stocks" within the meaning of the rules, the rules would apply to the Company and to its securities. The rules may further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell the securities of the Company in any market that might develop for them.

Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) "boiler room" practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.

Due to the numerous risks inherent in the implementation of a new business emphasis and plan, the Company must be regarded as a new or start-up venture with all of the unforeseen costs, expenses, problems, and difficulties to which such ventures are subject.

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully implement its business plan and provide the contemplated services to its client companies. Even if the Company is successful in providing its services to its client companies, there is a risk that it will not generate revenues or profits, or that the market price of the Company's common stock will increase.

The Company has limited operating funds, and this makes it impracticable for the Company to conduct a complete and exhaustive investigation and analysis of its opportunities. Decisions will therefore likely be made without detailed geotechnical reports, feasibility studies, independent analysis, market surveys and the like, which, if the Company had more funds available to it, would be desirable. The Company will be particularly dependent in making decisions upon information provided by third parties with interests in the transaction. A significant portion of the Company's available funds could be expended for investigative expenses and other preliminary expenses, and potential profits could therefore be lessened.

Because of the limited financial resources that the Company has, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to diversify its acquisitions or operations. The Company's probable inability to diversify its activities into multiple areas will subject the Company to economic fluctuations within a particular business or industry and therefore increase the risks associated with the Company's operations.

The Company generally will require audited financial statements from companies with which it seeks to enter into a contractual arrangement. In cases where no audited financials are available, the Company will have to rely upon interim period unaudited information received from a prospective client company's management that has not been verified by outside auditors. The lack of the type of independent verification which audited financial statements would provide increases the risk that the Company, in evaluating a contractual arrangement with such a company, will not have the benefit of full and accurate information about the financial condition and recent interim operating history of that company. This risk increases the prospect that the contractual arrangement with such a company might prove to be an unfavorable one for the Company or the holders of the Company's securities.

Moreover, the Company will be subject to the reporting provisions of the Exchange Act, and thus will be required to furnish certain information about significant contractual arrangements, including audited financial statements for any business with which it enters into a contractual arrangement for control. Consequently, prospects that do not have, or are unable to provide reasonable assurances that they will be able to obtain, the required audited statements would not be considered by the Company to be appropriate clients so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable. Should the Company, during the time it remains subject to the reporting provisions of the Exchange Act, complete into a contract for control of an entity for which audited financial statements prove to be unobtainable, the Company would be exposed to enforcement actions by the SEC and to corresponding administrative sanctions, including permanent injunctions against the Company and its management. The legal and other costs of defending an SEC enforcement action would have material, adverse consequences for the Company and its business. The imposition of administrative sanctions would subject the Company to further adverse consequences. In addition, the lack of audited financial statements would prevent the securities of the Company from becoming eligible for listing on NASDAQ, or on any existing stock exchange.

Moreover, the lack of such financial statements is likely to discourage broker-dealers from becoming or continuing to serve as market makers in the securities of the Company. Without audited financial statements, the Company would almost certainly be unable to offer securities under a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Act, and the ability of the Company to raise capital would be significantly limited until such financial statements were to become available.

A contractual arrangement for acquisition of equity ownership of or control may be of a company that is subject to rules and regulation by federal, state, local or foreign authorities. Compliance with such rules and regulations can be expected to be a time-consuming, expensive process and may limit other opportunities of the Company.

~~The Company is heavily dependent upon the skills, talents, and abilities of its management, who currently have other business interests and do not devote their full time to management of the Company.~~

The Company does not currently have ~~any~~ employment agreements with its Chief Executive Officer and President, Mr. Doris, and its Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Barker. As a result, there is no assurance that Mr. Doris or Mr. Barker will continue to be associated with the Company in the future. In connection with future business opportunities, it is possible that Mr. Doris or Mr. Barker may resign as an officer and director of the Company subject to compliance with Section 14f of the Exchange Act. AAny decision to resign ~~will be based upon the identity of the business opportunity and the nature of the transaction and is likely to~~would occur without the vote or consent of the stockholders of the Company.

The Company does not have an independent Audit Committee of its Board of Directors. The entire Board of Directors functions as the Company's Audit Committee. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended or the SOX and rules and regulations adopted by the SEC to implement the SOX impose certain standards on listed companies relative to the maintenance and operations of Board of Directors Audit Committees, including but not limited to the requirement that Audit Committees be appointed, that membership of such committees comprise only independent directors, that a financial professional be among the membership of such committee and that such committee be afforded an adequate operating budget and be able to employ independent professional advisors. The SOX also requires that the Audit Committee oversee the work of a company's outside auditors and that the outside auditors be responsible to the Audit Committee. At this time, the Company is not in compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as they relate to independent Board of Directors Audit Committees. The Company believes that under rules and regulations adopted by the SEC to implement these provisions of the SOX it is not required to ~~comply with~~indemnify its requirements relating to the appointment of an Audit Committee of its Board of Directors and conforming with the enumerated standards and guidelines because the Company is not a "Listed Company" as defined therein. Notwithstanding, the Company may ultimately be determined not to be in compliance therewith and may therefore face penalties and restrictions on its operations until it comes into full compliance. Additionally, the Company's failure to comply with the provisions of the SOX could preclude it from being listed on NASDAQ or any other stock exchanges until it can show that it is in compliance. The Company's failure to be in compliance with the SOX could also present an impediment to a potential business combination where the target company intends that the Company apply for listing on NASDAQ or any other applicable stock exchanges.

Nevada law provides for the indemnification of the ~~Company's~~Company’s directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against ~~attorney's~~attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities on behalf of the Company. If the Company were called upon to indemnify an officer or director, then the portion of its available funds expended for such purpose would reduce the amount otherwise available for the Company’s business. This indemnification obligation and the resultant costs associated with indemnification may also discourage our Company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.

The Company ~~will also~~would bear the expenses of such litigation for any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, upon such ~~person's~~person’s promise to repay the Company if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures by the Company which it may be unable to recoup.

~~Dependence~~We may be dependent upon ~~Outside Advisors~~outside advisors.

To supplement the ~~Company's~~Company’s officers, directors and principal shareholders, the Company may be required to employ accountants, technical experts, appraisers, attorneys, or other outside consultants or advisors. The selection of any such advisors will be made by the Company without any input from stockholders. Furthermore, it is anticipated that such persons may be engaged on an ~~"as needed"~~“as needed” basis without a continuing fiduciary or other obligation to the Company. In the event the Company considers it necessary to hire outside advisors, such persons may be affiliates of the ~~Company, if they are able to provide the required services.~~Company.

~~The Company has not paid dividends on its common stock and does~~We do not anticipate paying ~~such~~any cash dividends to our common shareholders.

We presently do not anticipate that we will pay dividends on any of our common stock in the foreseeable future. If payment of dividends does occur at some point in the future, it would be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. The payment of any common stock dividends will be within the discretion of our Board of Directors. We presently intend to deploy available capital to execute our business plan; accordingly, we do not anticipate the declaration of any dividends for common stock in the foreseeable future.

~~Loss of Control by Present Management and Shareholders~~The Company’s CEO, James Doris, holds preferred stock which could afford him enough shareholder votes to control the Company.

The ~~Company may consider, as consideration for future business opportunities, an amount~~Company’s CEO and director, James Doris, holds 28,092 shares of the ~~Company's authorized but unissued~~Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, with each share of preferred stock entitling the holder to convert such share of preferred stock into 37,500 shares of common stock, ~~that would, upon issuance, represent~~and entitling the ~~great majority~~holder to 37,500 votes on all matters submitted to the vote of the ~~voting power and equity of the Company.

~~The majority~~least 51% of the outstanding shares of common stock ~~held by present~~of the Company and James Doris remains a director and Chief Executive Officer of Camber, each share of preferred stock shall not be entitled to any votes on matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company. By virtue of such preferred stock ownership, and the possibility of Camber owning less than 51% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, Mr. Doris could control the election of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and generally exercise control over the affairs of the Company. Such concentration of ownership could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of the Company that might otherwise be beneficial to stockholders. There can be no assurance that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect to Mr. Doris’s ownership of the preferred stock, or that such conflicts will be resolved in a manner favorable to the Company.

Our outstanding securities may become freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 and may have a depressive effect on the price of the shares of our common stock.

We have outstanding a large number of shares of common stock. Many of these securities are ~~"restricted securities"~~currently issued with a “restrictive legend” and characterized as “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 (“Rule 144”) promulgated under the Securities ~~Act.~~Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Theoutbreak of the coronavirus may negatively impact demand for oil and natural gas and our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, which spread in China and is continuing to spread throughout the United States and other parts of the world. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern.” On January 31, 2020, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex M. Azar II declared a public health emergency for the United States to aid the U.S. healthcare community in responding to COVID-19, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a “pandemic”. The significant outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets worldwide, and could adversely affect demand for oil and natural gas and our business, results of operations and financial conditions. The ultimate extent of the impact of any epidemic, pandemic or other health crisis on demand for oil and natural gas and our business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of such epidemic, pandemic or other health crisis and actions taken to contain or prevent their further spread, among others. These and other potential impacts of an epidemic, pandemic or other health crisis, such as COVID-19, could therefore materially and adversely affect demand for oil and natural gas and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement notified Viking that the Staff had made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against Viking, as well as against its CEO and its CFO, for alleged violation so securities laws.

In April of 2019, the staff (the “Staff”) of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement notified Viking that the Staff had made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against Viking, as well as against its CEO and its CFO, for alleged violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder during the period from early 2014 through late 2016. The Staff’s notice is not a formal allegation or a finding of wrongdoing by Viking, and Viking has communicated with the Staff regarding its preliminary determination. Viking believes it has adequate defenses and intends to vigorously defend any enforcement action that may be initiated by the SEC. However, the defense of an action filed by the SEC against Viking, its CEO and/or CFO, could take resources away from the operations of Viking, divert management attention, or potential result in penalties, fines or sanctions, which could materially adversely affect Viking or the value of its securities.

~~On November 3, 2014, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale, Petroleum~~Oil and Natural Gas Conveyance Agreement (the "Agreement"), with Tanager Energy Inc., a Canadian corporation listed on the TSX Venture Exchange as a Tier 2 company and trading under the stock symbol "TAN" ("Tanager Energy"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired a 50% working interest in the Joffre oil and gas property located in Alberta, Canada (the "Joffre Property"). On or about March 30, 2016, the working interest was registered in the name of the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Viking Oil & Gas (Canada) ULC.

~~As of December 31, 2017, this Canadian property consists of one oil well producing from the Leduc Formation, three suspended oil wells, one abandoned oil well, and a suspended water injector.~~Properties

The properties produce hydrocarbons from known reservoirs/sands in the on-shore Gulf Coast region, with an average well depth in excess of 10,600 feet.

On May 1, 2019, the Company’s subsidiary, Mid-Con Development, LLC sold all of its interests in the oil and gas assets of Mid-Con Development, LLC owned in Ellis and Rooks Counties, Kansas, consisting of working interests in approximately 41 oil leases comprising several thousand acres.

On May 10, 2019, Petrodome Louisiana Pipeline LLC ("Petrodome LA"), a subsidiary of the Company’s subsidiary, Petrodome Energy, LLC, acquired a majority working interest in 6 gas wells (including 2 producing gas wells), 1 producing oil well and 1 salt water disposal well located in the East Mud Lake Field in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, with leases to mineral rights (oil and gas) concerning approximately 765 acres.

On February 3, 2020, Elysium Energy, LLC, (“Elysium”), the subsidiary of the Company’s then partially owned subsidiary, Elysium Energy Holdings, LLC (“Elysium Holdings”), acquired interests in oil and gas properties located in Texas and Louisiana, which included leases, working interests, and over-riding royalty interests in oil and gas properties in Texas (approximately 72 wells in 11 counties) and Louisiana (approximately 55 wells in 6 parishes), along with associated equipment. On February 4, 2020, Elysium hedged 75% of the estimated oil and gas production associated with the newly acquired assets for 2020, 60% of the estimated production for 2021 and 50% of the estimated production for the period between January, 2022 to July, 2022. Theses hedges have a floor of $45 and a ceiling ranging from $52.70 to $56.00 for oil, and a floor of $2.00 and a ceiling of $2.425 for natural gas.

As of December 31, 2020, all of our proved oil and natural gas reserves were located in the United States, in the States of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Kansas.

The following tables set forth summary information with respect to our proved reserves as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. For additional information see Supplemental Information “Oil and Natural Gas Producing Activities (Unaudited)” to our consolidated financial statements in “Item 8—Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(1) - BOE (barrels of oil equivalent) is calculated by a ratio of 6 MCF to 1 BBL of Oil

(2) - PV-10 represents the discounted future net cash flows attributable to our proved oil and natural gas reserves discounted at 10%. PV-10 of our total year-end proved reserves is considered a non-US GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC. We believe that the presentation of the PV-10 is relevant and useful to our investors because it presents the discounted future net cash flows attributable to our proved reserves. We further believe investors and creditors use our PV-10 as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our reserves to other companies.

The following table presents certain information with respect to oil and natural gas production attributable to our interests in all of our properties in the United States, the revenue derived from the sale of such production, average sales prices received and average production costs during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

During the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company did not drill any new wells. Rather, due to market conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, geo-political factors and other matters, including the tropical storms that affected the Gulf Coast region from late August through to October, 2020, the Company focused primarily on preserving and maintaining existing assets to the extent possible. The Company proactively shut-in or lowered production rates certain wells when commodity prices dropped and in advance of certain tropical storms, resulting in lower than forecasted production volumes. Maintenance included, among other things, replacing tubing and resetting the production packer (i.e. the equipment that provides a seal between the outside of the production tubing and the inside of the casing, liner, or wellbore wall) and/or jet pump assembly in a few wells, and in one instance the Company perforated a new production zone in an existing well-bore.

The Company is not currently committed to provide a fixed and determinable quantity of oil or gas in the near future under existing contracts or agreements.

The following table sets forth the number wells in our inventory, in which we maintained ownership interests as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. All wells are located in the United States, in the States of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Kansas.

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. As of December 31, ~~2017,~~2020, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations.

There is no "established trading market" for shares of the Company's common stock. As of December 31, ~~2017,~~2020, the Company's common stock was quoted on the OTC Link LLC alternative trading system operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol "VKIN." No assurance can be given that any "established trading market" for the Company's common stock will develop or be maintained.

The range of high and low closing bid quotations for the Company's common stock during each quarter of the calendar years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016,~~2019 adjusted for the effect of the 1-for-9 reverse split, is shown below, as quoted by http://finance.yahoo.com. Prices are inter-dealer quotations, without retail mark-up, markdown or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

The future sale of the Company's presently outstanding "unregistered" and "restricted" common stock by present members of management and persons who own more than five percent of the Company's outstanding voting securities may have an adverse effect on any "established trading market" that may develop in the shares of the Company's common stock.

As of December 31, ~~2017,~~2020, the Company had approximately ~~152~~540 shareholders of record of common stock, including shares held in “street name” by banks, brokerage clearing houses, depositories or otherwise in unregistered form. The Company does not know the beneficial owners of such shares, or the number of beneficial holders of such shares.

We have not historically distributed dividends to stockholders, nor do we intend to do so in the foreseeable future.

The Company does not have any securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans.

Our common stock is considered "penny stock" under the rules the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that:

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with:

In addition, the penny stock rules that require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgement of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.

The Company's business plan is to engage in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties, both individually and through collaborative partnerships with other companies in this field of endeavor. ~~In November of 2014,~~Viking has relationships with industry experts and formulated an acquisition strategy, with emphasis on acquiring under-valued, producing properties from distressed vendors or those deemed as non-core assets by larger sector participants. The Company does not focus on speculative exploration programs, but rather targets properties with current production and untapped reserves. The Company’s growth strategy includes the ~~Company entered its first contract of this kind.~~following key initiatives:

The following overview provides a background for the current strategy being implemented by management during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

On ~~March 8, 2016,~~December 22, 2017, the Company ~~incorporated~~completed an acquisition of 100% of the membership interests of Petrodome Energy, LLC, a ~~wholly owned subsidiary, Viking Oil & Gas (Canada) ULC,~~privately-owned company, with working interests in ~~Alberta, Canada, to hold Canadian~~multiple oil and gas ~~interests which were registered in its name. On August 30, 2016,~~fields across Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, comprising approximately 11,700 acres.

As a part of this acquisition, the Company ~~organized a wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Petroleum, LLC (“Mid-Con Petroleum”), a Kansas limited liability company, to hold~~retained an operational office in Houston, Texas that includes several senior level professionals with over 100 years of combined oil and gas ~~interests in the central United States. On August 25, 2017,~~experience which provides the Company ~~organized another wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Drilling, LLC (“Mid-Con Drilling”), a Kansas limited liability company,~~the capability of operating many of its own wells internally. This expertise has since been utilized to ~~hold~~evaluate additional oil and gas ~~interests in~~acquisitions, evaluate the ~~central United States. On December 27, 2017,~~profitable management of all of the ~~Company organized a third wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Development, LLC (“Mid-Con Development”), a Kansas limited liability company, to hold further~~Company’s oil and gas assets, and evaluate and develop new drilling prospects.

On December 28, 2018, the Company, through its newly formed Ichor Energy subsidiaries completed an acquisition (the “Ichor Energy Acquisition”) of working interests in the central United States. In 2016 and 2017, the Company acquired numerous oil and gas interests in Kansas, and in December of 2017, the Company acquired Petrodome Energy, LLC, a Texas limited liability company based in Houston, Texas, with interests incertain oil and gas leases in Texas (primarily in Orange and Jefferson Counties) and Louisiana (primarily in Calcasiue Parish), which include 58 producing wells and ~~Mississippi.~~31 salt water disposal wells. The properties produce hydrocarbons from known reservoirs/sands in the on-shore Gulf Coast region, with an average well depth in excess of 10,600 feet, and daily production volumes averaging in excess of 2,300 BOE. This acquisition of these assets is consistent with the location of our Petrodome assets and are effectively managed from our Houston office.

On October 10, 2019, the Company, through a newly formed subsidiary, Elysium Energy, LLC (“Elysium”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement to purchase working interests and over-riding royalty interests in oil and gas properties in Texas (approximately 71 wells in 11 counties) and Louisiana (approximately 52 wells in 6 parishes), along with associated wells and equipment (the “Elysium Energy Acquisition”). As of December 31, 2019, the Company paid deposits of $2,750,000 into escrow in connection with this acquisition, which deposits were applied toward the purchase price at closing of the Elysium Energy Acquisition on or about February 3, 2020.

On February 3, 2020, Elysium, a wholly owned subsidiary of Elysium Energy Holdings, LLC (“Elysium Holdings”), which at the time was a partially owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired interests in oil and gas properties located in Texas and Louisiana, which included leases, working interests, and over-riding royalty interests in oil and gas properties in Texas (approximately 72 wells in 11 counties) and Louisiana (approximately 55 wells in 6 parishes), along with associated equipment. On February 4, 2020, Elysium hedged 75% of the estimated oil and gas production associated with the newly acquired assets for 2020, 60% of the estimated production for 2021 and 50% of the estimated production for the period between January, 2022 to July, 2022. Theses hedges have a floor of $45 and a ceiling ranging from $52.70 to $56.00 for oil, and a floor of $2.00 and a ceiling of $2.425 for natural gas. On December 23, 2020, the remaining membership interests in Elysium Holdings were assigned to the Company, and Elysium Holdings became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company generated a net loss of $63,988,245 for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Loss”) as compared to a net loss of $19,390,850 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The 2020 Loss was comprised of, among other things, certain non-cash items, including: (i) Impairment of Oil & Gas Properties in the amount of $37,500,000 attributable in part to low commodity prices throughout 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and certain geo-political factors; (ii) Stock Based Compensation of $5,625,302; (iii) Accretion of Asset Retirement Obligation of $1,111,266; (iv) Depreciation, Depletion & Amortization of $13,513,735; and (v) Change in Fair Value of Derivatives of ($5,485,573).

As of December 31, 2020, the Company has a stockholders’ deficit of $16,302,163 and total Long-term Debt of $111,753,164. On or about January 8, 2021, the equity position of the Company was improved by the extinguishment of Long-Term Debt and accrued expenses of approximately $18,900,000 through the issuance of common stock. (see Note1).

As of December 31, 2020, the Company has a working capital deficiency of approximately $35,000,000. The largest component of current liabilities creating this working capital deficiency is a term loan agreement with a face value of approximately $33.6 million as of December 31, 2020.

Management believes it will be able to continue to leverage the expertise and relationships of its operational and technical teams to enhance existing assets and identify new development and acquisition opportunities in order to improve the Company’s financial position. The Company may have the ability, if it can raise additional capital, to acquire new assets in a separate division from existing subsidiaries. Also, as a majority-owned subsidiary of Camber Energy, Inc. (“Camber”), the Company might be able to benefit from Camber’s national stock exchange platform to access additional capital sources.

None the less, recent oil and gas price volatility as a result of geopolitical conditions and the global COVID-19 pandemic have already had and may continue to have a negative impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Negative impacts could include but are not limited to: The Company’s ability to sell our oil and gas production, reduction in the selling price of the Company’s oil and gas, failure of a counterparty to make required hedge payments, possible disruption of production as a result of worker illness or mandated production shutdowns, the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with loan covenants and/or refinance existing indebtedness, and access to new capital and financing.

These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ~~Company's~~Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to utilize the resources in place to generate future profitable operations, ~~and/or~~to develop additional acquisition opportunities, and to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from ~~normal~~ business operations when they come due. Management ~~has no formal plan in place~~believes the Company will be able to ~~address this concern but considers that the Company~~continue to develop new opportunities and will be able to obtain additional funds bythrough debt and / or equity ~~financing and/or related party advances;~~financings to facilitate its development strategy; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

The following discussion of the consolidated financial condition and results of operation of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related Notes included elsewhere in this Report.

The operational side of this is increase is mainly attributable to ~~stock-based compensation of $5,405,106 and~~ increases in lease operating costs commensurate with the new oil and gas wells purchased, as well as a substantial increase in ~~2017. Additionally, there were increases in~~depletion expenses, accretion expense, ~~and~~ depreciation ~~depletion~~ and amortization expense. Additionally, the Company had a large impairment loss of $37,500,000, directly attributable to the economic impact of the pandemic in 2020.

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in the Company's securities.

The Company's business and operating results are not currently affected in any material way by inflation although they could be adversely affected in the future were inflation to increase, resulting in cost increases.

On January 12, 2018, the Company through Mid-Con Drilling, LLC, completed an acquisition of a 100% working interest in seven new oil and gas leases in Woodson and Allen Counties in Eastern Kansas. To facilitate this transaction, the Company through Mid-Con Drilling, LLC, executed a Promissory Note, dated January 12, 2018, in favor of Cornerstone Bank in the amount of $366,000. The acquisition price for this transaction was $480,000.

~~Subsequent to December 31, 2017, and through the date of this filing, the Company issued 2,168,500 common shares for consulting services pursuant to various agreements.~~

Subsequent to the December 31, 2017, and through the date of this filing, the Company borrowed an additional $2,100,000 pursuant to the terms of a private placement agreement to facilitate acquisitions and debt reduction. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, and in conjunction with the raising of these funds, the Company is committed to the issuance 3,150,000 common shares. As of the date of this filing, the Company has issued 1,567,500 of these shares.

As reported the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on April 19, 2018, the Company entered into an employment agreement, restricted stock agreement, and warrant with Timothy Swift, appointing Mr. Swift as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Pursuant to Mr. Swift’s employment agreement with the Company, Mr. Swift is to receive an annual base salary of $275,000 and is eligible to receive, at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, an annual bonus of up to 110% of his base salary and incentive equity compensation equal to approximately 130% of his base salary. Pursuant to the restricted stock agreement, Mr. Swift is to receive 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with 50% of the shares vesting immediately and the remaining shares vesting on October 1, 2018, unless Mr. Swift has resigned from employment or has been terminated for cause on or prior to that time. Pursuant to the warrant, Mr. Swift received the right to purchase 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.30 per share exercisable through April 1, 2023, with (i) 1,000,000 of the warrant shares vesting immediately; (ii) 2,000,000 of the warrant shares vesting on July 1, 2018, or another date as agreed in writing by both parties so long as the Company has closed a financing transaction consolidating the Company’s debt, has raised an additional $5,000,000 in financing at such time, and Mr. Swift has not resigned from employment or been terminated for cause at that time; and (iii) 500,000 of the warrant shares vesting on December 31, 2018, so long as Mr. Swift has not resigned from employment or been terminated for cause at that time.

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions and apply judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be important at the time the financial statements are prepared and actual results could differ from our estimates and such differences could be material. Due to the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. On a regular basis, we review our critical accounting policies and how they are applied in the preparation of our financial statements, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures pertaining to our accounting policies in the footnotes accompanying our financial statements. Described below are the most significant policies we apply in preparing our consolidated financial statements, some of which are subject to alternative treatments under GAAP. We also describe the most significant estimates and assumptions we make in applying these policies. See “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements.

The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investment in oil and natural gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all costs of acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties (including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, geological expenditures, dry hole costs, tangible and intangible development costs and direct internal costs) are capitalized as the cost of oil and natural gas properties when incurred.

The full cost method requires the Company to calculate quarterly, by cost center, a "ceiling," or limitation on the amount of properties that can be capitalized on the balance sheet. To the extent capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties, less accumulated depletion and related deferred taxes exceed the sum of the discounted future net revenues of proved oil and natural gas reserves, the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties subject to amortization, the cost of properties not being amortized, and the related tax amounts, such excess capitalized costs are charged to expense.

Estimates of our proved reserves included in this report are prepared in accordance with U.S. SEC guidelines for reporting corporate reserves and future net revenue. The accuracy of a reserve estimate is a function of:

Our proved reserve information included in this report was predominately based on estimates. Because these estimates depend on many assumptions, all of which may substantially differ from future actual results, reserve estimates will be different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered. In addition, results of drilling, testing and production after the date of an estimate may justify material revisions to the estimate.

In accordance with SEC requirements, we based the estimated discounted future net cash flows from proved reserves on the unweighted arithmetic average of the prior 12-month commodity prices as of the first day of each of the months constituting the period and costs on the date of the estimate.

The estimates of proved reserves materially impact depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion (“DD&A”) expense. If the estimates of proved reserves decline, the rate at which we record DD&A expense will increase, reducing future net income. Such a decline may result from lower market prices, which may make it uneconomic to drill for and produce from higher-cost fields.

Asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) primarily represent the estimated present value of the amount we will incur to plug, abandon and remediate our producing properties at the projected end of their productive lives, in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws. We determined our ARO by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows related to the obligation. The retirement obligation is recorded as a liability at its estimated present value as of the obligation’s inception, with an offsetting increase to proved properties. Periodic accretion of discount of the estimated liability is recorded as accretion expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

ARO liability is determined using significant assumptions, including current estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, annual inflation of these costs, the productive lives of wells and a risk-adjusted interest rate. Changes in any of these assumptions can result in significant revisions to the estimated ARO.

Revenues from oil and gas properties are recognized under the entitlements method of accounting, whereby revenue is recognized on the amount the Company is entitled to, based on its interest in the property after all costs associated with exploration, gathering, marketing and sales relative to the volumes of product sold.

The Company ~~has updated~~does not designate its ~~accounting for net operating losses~~commodities derivative instruments as hedges and therefore does not apply hedge accounting. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments subsequent to ~~reflect accumulated deficits.~~the initial measurement are recorded as change in fair value on derivative liability, in other income (expense). The estimated fair value amounts of the Company’s commodity derivative instruments have been determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information which resulted in the Company classifying such derivatives as Level 2. Although the Company’s commodity derivative instruments are valued using public indices, as well as the Black-Sholes model, the instruments themselves are traded with unrelated counterparties and are not openly traded on an exchange.

The Company, as a smaller reporting company (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), is not required to furnish information required by this item.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Viking Energy Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016~~2019 and the related consolidated statements of operations, ~~and comprehensive loss,~~ stockholders’ ~~equity/(deficit)~~equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016,~~2019, and the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception and has a working capital deficiency both of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

As described further in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company uses the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties. This accounting method requires management to make estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and related future cash flows to compute and record depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, as well as to assess potential impairment of oil and natural gas properties (the full cost ceiling test). To estimate the volume of proved oil and natural gas reserves quantities, management makes significant estimates and assumptions including forecasting the production decline rate of producing properties. In addition, the estimation of proved oil and natural gas reserves is also impacted by management’s judgements and estimates regarding the financial performance of wells associated with those proved oil and natural gas reserves to determine if wells are expected to be economical under the appropriate pricing assumptions that are required in the estimation of depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and potential ceiling test impairment assessments. We identified the estimation of proved oil and natural gas reserves as it relates to the recognition of depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and the assessment of potential impairment as a critical audit matter.

The principal consideration for our determination that the estimation of proved oil and natural gas reserves is a critical audit matter is that there is significant judgement by management and use of specialist in developing the estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and a relatively minor change in certain inputs and assumptions that are necessary to estimate the volume and future cash flows of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves could have a significant impact on the measurement of depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and/or impairment expense. In turn, auditing those inputs and assumptions required subjective and complex auditor judgement.

Our audit procedures to address management’s significant judgments and estimates associated with oil and natural gas reserve volumes and related future cash flows included the following, among others:

~~The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.~~

In February 2020, the Company entered into a merger agreement with Camber Energy, Inc.(“Camber”); the agreement was subject to numerous conditions. On December 23, 2020 Camber acquired a 51% interest in Viking and this merger agreement was terminated. On January 8, 2021 Camber acquired an additional interest in the Company resulting in Camber owning approximately 62% of the outstanding common shares of the Company. As a result, since December 23, 2020 Viking has been a majority-owned subsidiary of Camber. The December 2020 and January 2021 transactions and a new merger agreement in February 2021 are described further below. References below to the Company’s various debt arrangements are described further in Note 7.

On January 8, 2021, the Company entered into another purchase agreement with Camber pursuant to which Camber agreed to acquire an additional 16,153,846 shares of Company common stock (the “Shares”) in consideration of (i) Camber issuing 1,890 shares of Camber’s Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock to EMC Capital Partners, LLC (“EMC”), one of the Company’s lenders which held a secured promissory note issued by the Company to EMC in the original principal amount of $20,869,218 in connection with the purchase of oil and gas assets on or about February 3, 2020 (the “EMC Note”); and (ii) EMC considering the EMC Note paid in full and cancelled pursuant to the Cancellation Agreement described below.

Simultaneously, on January 8, 2021, the Company entered into a Cancellation Agreement with EMC (the “Cancellation Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay $325,000 to EMC, and EMC agreed to cancel and terminate in the EMC Note and all other liabilities, claims, amounts owing and other obligations under the Note. At the same time, Camber entered into a purchase agreement with EMC pursuant to which (i) Camber agreed to issue 1,890 shares of Camber’s Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock to EMC, and (ii) EMC agreed to enter into the Cancellation Agreement with the Company to cancel the EMC Note.

These January 8, 2021 transactions will be reflected in the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ending March 31, 2021.

On February 15, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Camber. The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Camber (“Merger Sub”) will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Camber.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share: (i) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Viking Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than shares owned by Camber, the Company and Merger Sub, will be converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of Camber; and (ii) of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Viking Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Camber (the “Camber Series A Preferred Stock”). Each share of Camber Series A Preferred Stock will convert into 890 shares of common stock of Camber (subject to a beneficial ownership limitation preventing conversion into Camber common stock if the holder would be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of Camber’s common stock), will be treated equally with Camber’s common stock with respect to dividends and liquidation, and will only have voting rights with respect to voting: (a) on a proposal to increase or reduce Camber’s share capital; (b) on a resolution to approve the terms of a buy-back agreement; (c) on a proposal to wind up Camber; (d) on a proposal for the disposal of all or substantially all of Camber’s property, business and undertaking; (f) during the winding-up of Camber; and/or (g) with respect to a proposed merger or consolidation in which Camber is a party or a subsidiary of Camber is a party. Holders of Viking Common Stock and Viking Preferred Stock will have any fractional shares of Camber common stock or preferred stock after the Merger rounded up to the nearest whole share.

At the Effective Time, each outstanding Company equity award, will be converted into the right to receive the merger consideration in respect of each share of Viking Common Stock underlying such equity award and, in the case of Company stock options, be converted into vested Camber stock options based on the merger exchange ratio calculated as provided above (the “Exchange Ratio”).

The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that effective as of the Effective Time, James A. Doris, the current Chief Executive Officer of both the Company and Camber, shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Combined Company following the Effective Time. The Merger Agreement provides that, as of the Effective Time, the Combined Company will have its headquarters in Houston, Texas.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until the Effective Time, each of Camber and Company will be subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, to provide non-public information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals, subject to customary exceptions. Company is required to hold a meeting of its stockholders to vote upon the adoption of the Merger Agreement and, subject to certain exceptions, to recommend that its stockholders vote to adopt the Merger Agreement. Camber is required to hold a meeting of its stockholders to approve the issuance of Viking Common Stock and Viking Preferred Stock in connection with the Merger (the “Share Issuance”).

The completion of the Merger is subject to customary conditions, including (i) adoption of the Merger Agreement by Camber’s stockholders and approval of the Share Issuance by Camber’s stockholders, (ii) receipt of required regulatory approvals, (iii) effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 for the Camber common stock to be issued in the Merger (the “Form S-4”), and (iv) the absence of any law, order, injunction, decree or other legal restraint preventing the completion of the Merger or making the completion of the Merger illegal. Each party’s obligation to complete the Merger is also subject to certain additional customary conditions, including (i) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, (ii) subject to certain exceptions, performance by the other party of its obligations under the Merger Agreement and (iii) the absence of any material adverse effect on the other party, as defined in the Merger Agreement.

Additional closing conditions to the Merger include that in the event the NYSE American determines that the Merger constitutes, or will constitute, a “back-door listing”/“reverse merger”, Camber (and its common stock) is required to qualify for initial listing on the NYSE American, pursuant to the applicable guidance and requirements of the NYSE as of the Effective Time.

The Merger Agreement can be terminated (i) at any time with the mutual consent of the parties; (ii) by either Camber or Company if any governmental consent or approval required for closing is not obtained, or any governmental entity issues a final non-appealable order or similar decree preventing the Merger; (iii) by either Company or Camber if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before August 1, 2021; (iv) by Camber or Company, upon the breach by the other of a term of the Merger, which is not cured within 30 days of the date of written notice thereof by the other; (v) by Camber if Company is unable to obtain the affirmative vote of its stockholders for approval of the Merger; (vi) by Company if Camber is unable to obtain the affirmative vote of its stockholders required pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement; and (vii) by Company or Camber if there is a willful breach of the Merger Agreement by the other party thereto.

The Merger Agreement contains customary indemnification obligations of the parties and representations and warranties.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company ~~had net comprehensive income of $17,828,946 and~~generated a net ~~comprehensive~~ loss of ~~$5,288,209~~$63,988,245 for the ~~years~~year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 (the “2020 Loss”) as compared to a net loss of $19,390,850 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The 2020 Loss was comprised of, among other things, certain non-cash items, including: (i) Impairment of Oil & Gas Properties in the amount of $37,500,000 attributable in part to low commodity prices throughout 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and ~~2016, respectively. The~~certain geo-political factors; (ii) Stock Based Compensation of $5,625,302; (iii) Accretion of Asset Retirement Obligation of $1,111,266; (iv) Depreciation, Depletion & Amortization of $13,513,735; and (v) Change in Fair Value of Derivatives of ($5,485,573).

As of December 31, 2020, the Company has ~~accumulated~~ a stockholders’ deficit of $16,302,163 and total Long-Term Debt of $111,753,164. On or about January 8, 2021, the equity position of ~~$22,508,313~~the Company was improved by the extinguishment of Long-Term Debt and accrued expenses of approximately $18,900,000 through the issuance of common stock (see Note 1).

Management believes it will be able to continue to leverage the expertise and relationships of its operational and technical teams to enhance existing assets and identify new development and acquisition opportunities in order to improve the Company’s financial position. The ~~income~~Company may have the ability, if it can raise additional capital, to acquire new assets in a separate division from existing subsidiaries. Also, as a majority-owned subsidiary of Camber Energy, Inc. (“Camber”), the Company might be able to benefit from Camber’s national stock exchange platform to access additional capital sources.

None the less, recent oil and ~~equity~~gas price volatility as a result of geopolitical conditions and the global COVID-19 pandemic have already had and may continue to have a negative impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Negative impacts could include but are not limited to: The Company’s ability to sell our oil and gas production, reduction in ~~2017 are reflective~~the selling price of the Company’s oil and gas, failure of a ~~large bargain purchase gain,~~counterparty to make required hedge payments, possible disruption of production as a result of worker illness or mandated production shutdowns, the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with loan covenants and/or refinance existing indebtedness, and ~~not results of operations in normal course. The Company has generated losses from operations~~access to new capital and ~~has a significant working capital deficit.~~ financing.

These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the ~~Company's~~Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to utilize the resources in place to generate future profitable operations, ~~and/or~~to develop additional acquisition opportunities, and to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from ~~normal~~ business operations when they come due. Management ~~has no formal plan in place~~believes the Company will be able to ~~address this concern but considers that the Company~~continue to develop new opportunities and will be able to obtain additional funds bythrough debt and / or equity ~~financing and/or related party advances;~~financings to facilitate its development strategy; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for consolidated financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-K as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements presented herein reflect the consolidated financial results of the Company, ~~and~~ its wholly owned subsidiaries, ~~Viking Oil & Gas (Canada) ULC, a Canadian corporation formed on March 8, 2016, to provide a base of operations for properties in Canada,~~ Mid-Con Petroleum, LLC, ~~formed on August 30, 2016,~~ Mid-Con Drilling, LLC, ~~formed on August 25, 2017,~~ and Mid-Con Development, LLC, which were all formed ~~on December 27, 2017, all~~ to provide a base of operations for properties in the Central United States, and Petrodome Energy, LLC, Ichor Holdings, LLC, Ichor Energy, LLC, Ichor Energy (TX), LLC, and Ichor Energy (LA), LLC., Elysium Energy Holdings, LLC, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Elysium Energy, LLC, Elysium Energy TX, LLC, Elysium Energy LA, LLC, Pointe A La Hache, L.L.C., Potash, L.L.C., Ramos Field, L.L.C., and Turtle Bayou, L.L.C., all based in Houston, Texas ~~to provide~~which provides a base of operations to facilitate property acquisitions in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been ~~eliminated upon consolidation.~~ eliminated.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. ~~The Company's actual results could vary materially from management's estimates and assumptions.~~ Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to impairment of long-lived assets, fair value of commodity derivatives, stock-based compensation, asset retirement obligations, and the determination of expected tax rates for future income tax ~~recoveries, stock-based compensation, embedded derivative liabilities, asset retirement obligations and impairment of long-lived assets.~~recoveries.

The estimates of proved, probable and possible oil and gas reserves are used as significant inputs in determining the depletion of oil and gas properties and the impairment of proved and unproved oil and gas properties. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved, probable and possible reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and unproved oil and gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future recoverable reserves and commodity price outlooks.

Accounting Standards Codification, “ASC” Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurement” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 820-10, defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurement. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for ~~other receivable – related party, long-term investment,~~deposits, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accounts payable, derivative liabilities, amount due to ~~directors,~~director, and convertible notes each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of and for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 are classified below based on the three fair value hierarchy described above:

Description	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total Gains (Losses)			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total Gains (Losses)

The Company’s long-term investment consisted of 1,437,500 common shares of Tanager Energy Inc., as of December 31, 2016, which is traded on the TSX Venture Exchange (Toronto Stock Exchange). During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company sold these shares. The change in the fair value of this investment that has been recognized as an unrealized gain in other comprehensive income on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss was $1,446 for the year ended December 31, 2017, and $156,978 for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The Company ~~had~~has entered into certain commodity ~~financial derivatives~~derivative instruments containing swaps and collars, which management believes are effective in ~~place at December 31, 2017.~~mitigating commodity price risk associated with a portion of its future monthly natural gas and crude oil production and related cash flows. The Company does not designate its commodities derivative instruments as hedges and therefore does not apply hedge accounting. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments subsequent to the initial measurement are recorded as change in fair value on derivative liability, in other income (expense). The estimated fair value amounts of the Company’s commodity derivative instruments have been determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information which resulted in the Company classifying such derivatives as Level 2. Although the Company’s commodity derivative instruments are valued using public indices, as well as the Black-Sholes model, the instruments themselves are traded with unrelated counterparties and are not openly traded on an exchange.

In a commodities swap agreement, the Company trades the fluctuating market prices of oil or natural gas at specific delivery points over a specified period, for fixed prices. As a producer of oil and natural gas, the Company holds these commodity derivatives to protect the operating revenues and cash flows related to a portion of its future natural gas and crude oil sales from the risk of significant declines in commodity prices, which helps reduce exposure to price risk and improves the likelihood of funding its capital budget. If the price of a commodity rises above what the Company has agreed to receive in the swap agreement, the amount that it agreed to pay the counterparty is expected to be offset by the increased amount it received for its production.

The Company ~~uses~~has also entered into collar agreements related to oil and gas production with established floors and ceilings. Upon settlement, if the ~~Black-Scholes model~~current market price of the commodity is below the floor, the Company receives the difference. Conversely, if the current market price of the commodity is above the ceiling at settlement, the Company pays the excess over the ceiling price.

Although the Company is exposed to ~~value~~credit risk to the extent of nonperformance by the counterparties to these derivative contracts, the Company does not anticipate such nonperformance and monitors the credit worthiness of its derivative liabilities. This model takes into account inputs such as contract terms, including maturity and market parameters, including assumptions associated with interest rates, volatility and credit worthiness. counterparties on an ongoing basis.

The derivative ~~liabilities of the Company~~assets were ~~$1,052,788~~$1,220,209 and ~~$1,136,894~~$0 as of December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016~~December 31, 2019 respectively, and the derivative liabilities were $893,458 and 5,158,822 as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 respectively. The change in the fair value of the derivative assets and liabilities for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 consisted of an increase of ~~$183,965~~$6,379,031 associated with commodity derivatives existing at the beginning of 2020 and a decrease ~~in derivative liabilities~~ of ~~$232,840 associated with warrants and the conversion features of new convertible debt, and a reduction of $35,232~~$893,458 associated with the ~~satisfaction~~new commodity derivative related to Elysium’s acquisition on February 3, 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investment securities that have original maturities of three months or less. At December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016,~~December 31, 2019, the Company has cash deposits in excess of FDIC insured limits in the amounts of ~~$5,372,818~~$3,726,783 and $0$4,163,360 respectively.

Restricted cash in the amount of ~~$5,199,103 represents~~$3,862,756 as of December 31, 2020 consists of $2,243,485 held by Ichor Energy, LLC and/or its subsidiaries and $1,619,271 held by Elysium Energy, LLC and/or its subsidiaries.

Pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement to which Ichor Energy LLC and its subsidiaries are parties, following March 31, 2019 the company is required at all times to maintain a minimum cash ~~provided through funding~~balance of $2,000,000 (the “MLR”). Within 30 days of the end of each quarter, commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2019, the company is required to pay the lenders, as an additional principal payment on the debt, any cash in excess of (i) the MLR and (ii) any funds necessary for the ~~Petrodome acquisition,~~capital expenditures contemplated to be expended in the next six-month period by an approved plan of development (“APOD Capex Amount”). At December 31, 2020, the restricted cash did not exceed the MLR and the APOD Capex Amount.

Pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement to which Elysium Energy, LLC and its subsidiaries are parties, all receipts are to be deposited to a lockbox account under the control of the administrative agent, and then subsequently transferred for ~~drilling~~operations to the company’s bank accounts, all of which are subject to deposit account control agreements. The aggregate amount of unencumbered cash held in any Operating Account is not to be less than (a) $1,000,000 for the period commencing on December 31, 2020 through and ~~exploration.~~including April 29, 2020, (b) $1,750,000 for the period commencing on April 30, 2021 through and including June 29, 2021, and (c) $2,500,000 for the period commencing June 30, 2021 through and including the Maturity Date. Commencing with the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the company is required to make mandatory prepayments of principal equal to 75% of Excess Cash Flow as defined in the agreement.

Accounts receivable consist of oil and gas receivables. ~~The Company has classified these as short-term assets in the balance sheet because the Company expects repayment or recovery within the next 12 months.~~ The Company evaluates these accounts receivable for collectability and, when necessary, records allowances for expected unrecoverable amounts. The Company has recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of ~~$52,446~~$217,057 at December 31, ~~2017 .~~

Prepaid equity-based expenses represent amounts paid in advance through the issuance of restricted shares of stock, for future contractual benefits to be received. These expenses paid in advance are recorded as prepaid equity-based compensation as a component of “Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)” and then amortized to the statements of operations and comprehensive loss over the life of the contract using the straight-line method. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the balances of the prepaid equity-based compensation were comprised of the following:

The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investment in oil and natural gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized. General and administrative costs related to production and general overhead are expensed as incurred.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the unit of production method using estimates of proved reserves. Disposition of oil and gas properties are accounted for as a reduction of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless such adjustment would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in operations. Unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment is included in loss from operations before income ~~taxes and the adjusted carrying amount of the unproved properties is amortized on the unit-of-production method.~~taxes.

~~Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense utilizing the unit-of-production method for the Company’s oil and gas properties for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were as follows:~~

Under the full-cost method of accounting, we are required, at the end of each reporting date, to perform a test to determine the limit on the book value of our oil and natural gas properties (the “Ceiling” test). If the capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated amortization and related deferred income taxes, exceed the Ceiling, this excess or impairment is charged to expense. The expense may not be reversed in future periods, even though higher oil and natural gas prices may subsequently increase the Ceiling. The Ceiling is defined as the sum of:

(a) the present value, discounted at 10 percent, and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions, of 1) estimated future gross revenues from proved reserves, which is computed using oil and natural gas prices determined as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within the 12-month hedging arrangements pursuant to SAB 103, less 2) estimated future expenditures (based on current costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, plus

(d) the related tax effects related to the difference between the book and tax basis of our oil and natural gas properties.

~~The Company recognized an impairment loss on oil and gas properties for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 of $0 and $1,710,393, respectively.~~

Reserve engineering is a subjective process that is dependent upon the quality of available data and the interpretation thereof, including evaluations and extrapolations of well flow rates and reservoir pressure. Estimates by different engineers often vary sometimes significantly. In addition, physical factors such as the results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of an estimate, as well as economic factors such as changes in product prices, may justify revision of such estimates. Because proved reserves are required to be estimated using recent prices of the evaluation, estimated reserve quantities can be significantly impacted by changes in product prices.

Basic net ~~loss~~income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net ~~loss~~income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net ~~loss~~income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net ~~loss~~income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and adjusted by any effects of warrants and options outstanding ~~if dilutive, that may add to the number of common shares~~ during the period. At December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016~~2019 there were ~~approximately 31,503,126~~17,646,154 and ~~6,582,259~~9,394,993 common stock equivalents ~~respectively,~~ that were anti-dilutive, respectively.

Sales of crude oil, natural gas, and ~~were not~~natural gas liquids (NGLs) are included in revenue when production is sold to a customer in fulfillment of performance obligations under the ~~calculation,~~terms of agreed contracts. Performance obligations primarily comprise delivery of oil, gas, or NGLs at a sdelivery point, as negotiated within each contract. Each barrel of oil, million BTU (MMBtu) of natural gas, or other unit of measure is separately identifiable and represents a distinct performance obligation to which the ~~excercise~~transaction price is allocated. Performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time once control of ~~these common stock equivalents was greater than~~ the ~~market price.~~product has been transferred to the customer. The Company considers a variety of facts and circumstances in assessing the point of control transfer, including but not limited to: whether the purchaser can direct the use of the hydrocarbons, the transfer of significant risks and rewards, the Company’s right to payment, and transfer of legal title. In each case, the time between delivery and when payments are due is not significant.

~~All~~The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service or sale is complete, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is derived from the sale of crude oil and natural gas. Revenue from crude oil and natural gas sales is recognized when the product is delivered to the purchaser and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company follows the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so it recognizes revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers.

~~FASB ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards~~by source for the ~~reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. For the year~~years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016, comprehensive income (loss) was $1,446 and $156,978 respectively and consisted primarily of unrealized gains and (losses) on available for sale securities.~~2019:

The Company ~~provides a valuation allowance for~~recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities to the extent that we believe that these assets and/or liabilities are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that the Company would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for ~~which~~income taxes.

The Company may issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. ~~In accordance with guidance in ASC Topic 718, the~~The cost of stock options and warrants issued to employees and non-employees is measured on the grant date based on the fair ~~value of the grant.~~value. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

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

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

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

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

~~As of December 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company had no trading and held-to-maturity securities.~~

~~The Company’s long-term investment consisted of 1,437,500~~issued 63,709 common shares from the exercise of ~~Tanager Energy, Inc., as of December 31, 2016, which is traded on~~78,166 warrants during the TSX Venture Exchange (Toronto Stock Exchange). During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the company sold these shares. The change in the fair value of this investment recognized as an unrealized gain (loss) in other comprehensive income on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss was $1,446 and 156,978 for the yearsyear ended December 31, ~~2017 and 2016 respectively.~~ 2020.

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

Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally determined by using the asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value. The Company estimates fair value of the assets based on certain assumptions such as budgets, internal projections, and other available information as considered necessary. There ~~was~~is no impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016.~~2019.

An entity's functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates, normally that is the currency of the environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. Management's judgment is essential to determine the functional currency by assessing various indicators, such as cash flows, sales price and market, expenses, financing and inter-company transactions and arrangements. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. Dollar. The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar. The Company has oil and gas operations in Alberta, Canada in which the Canadian Dollar (“CAD” or “CS” herein) is the primary economic environment. The reporting currency of these consolidated financial statements is the U.S. Dollar.

For financial reporting purposes, the operational results of the Company's oil and gas operations in Canada are prepared using the CAD, and are translated into the Company's reporting currency, the U.S. Dollar. Revenue and expenses applicable to the oil and gas operations in Alberta, Canada are translated using average rates prevailing during each reporting period. Gains or losses resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity when realized. There have been no settlement transactions that resulted in the recognition of a foreign currency exchange gain or loss during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

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

The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of its convertible notes under the guidance of ASC 815. The conversion feature did not meet the definition of “indexed to a company’s own stock” provided for in ASC 815 due to the down round protection feature. Therefore, the conversion feature requires bifurcation and liability classification.

We review the terms of convertible debt issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments.

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

Asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) primarily represent the estimated present value of the amount the Company will incur to plug, abandon and remediate its producing properties at the projected end of their productive lives, in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws. The Company determined its ARO by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows related to the obligation. The retirement obligation is recorded as a liability at its estimated present value as of the obligation’s inception, with an offsetting increase to proved properties.

The following table describes the changes in the Company’s asset retirement obligations for the ~~years~~year ended December 31, ~~2017 and 2016:~~ 2020:

~~As of~~The Company has evaluated all subsequent events from December 31, ~~2017, and~~2020 through the date of filing of this filing, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or future operating results. The Company will monitor these emerging issues to assess any potential future impact on its financial statements.report.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This standard requires all leases that have a term of over 12 months to be recognized on the balance sheet with the liability for lease paymentsNote 4. Oil and the corresponding right-of-use asset initially measured at the present value of amounts expected to be paid over the term. Recognition of the costs of these leases on the income statement will be dependent upon their classification as either an operating or a financing lease. Costs of an operating lease will continue to be recognized as a single operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. This standard will be effective for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019 and must be applied on a modified retrospective basis to leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the timing of adoption and the potential impact of this standard on our consolidated financial position, but we do not expect it to have a material impact on our results of operations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Credit Agreement executed on December 28, 2018 with various lenders in the initial amount of $63,592,000 (and as amended in June 2020), the Company is required to provide, periodically to the lenders, certain information (including restrictive financial ratios) regarding the financial and operational performance of the related assets, accompanied by a compliance certificate. At December 31, 2020, the Company is in compliance with these loan covenants.

Pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Credit Agreement executed on February 3, 2020 with various lenders in the initial amount of $36,458,333, the Company is required to periodically provide the lenders certain information (including restrictive financial ratios) regarding the financial and operational performance of the related assets, accompanied by a compliance certificate. The Company was in compliance with all loan covenants except certain mid-year financial ratios at June 30, 2020; in August 2020, the Company (i) obtained a waiver from the lenders of such noncompliance as of June 30, 2020 and (ii) modified and added certain covenants to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The Company is in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreement at December 31, 2020. Given current difficult and volatile economic conditions, the Company has continued to classify this debt as a current liability in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020 as the Company is uncertain as to its ability to comply with all of the covenants in the future.

In April 2018, the Company’s subsidiary, Petrodome Energy, LLC entered into a 66-month lease for 4,147 square feet of office space for the Company’s corporate office in Houston, Texas. The annual base rent commenced at $22.00 per square foot, and escalates at $0.50 per foot each year through expiration of the lease term. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating lease expense was $116,573 and $96,304 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

From time to time the Company may be a party to litigation ~~matters~~ involving commercial claims against the Company. Management believes that ~~there are no current~~the ultimate resolution of these matters ~~that would~~will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In April of 2019, the staff (the “Staff”) of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement notified the Company that the Staff had made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against the Company, as well as against its CEO and its CFO, for alleged violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder during the period from early 2014 through late 2016. The Staff’s notice is not a formal allegation or a finding of wrongdoing by the Company, and the Company has communicated with the Staff regarding its preliminary determination. The Company believes it has adequate defenses and intends to vigorously defend any enforcement action that may be initiated by the SEC.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the consolidated financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities by using estimated tax rates for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that the Company would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

In assessing the realizability of its deferred tax assets, management evaluated whether it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of its deferred tax assets, will be realized. The realization of its deferred tax assets relates directly to the Company’s ability to generate taxable income. The valuation allowance is then adjusted accordingly.

The Company has estimated net operating ~~losses~~loss carry forwards of approximately ~~$11,500,000~~$44,200,000 and ~~$8,600,000~~$27,800,000 as of December 31, ~~2017,~~2020 and ~~2016~~2019, respectively. The potential benefit of these net operating losses has not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. ~~The net operating loss carryforwards will expire in 2027 through 2037.~~

OnT In December ~~22,~~ 2017, ~~the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“the Tax Act”)~~tax legislation was signed into law making significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Changes include, but are not limited to, a reduction of the corporate tax rate from a top marginal rate of 35% to a flat rate of 21%, limitation of the tax deduction for interest expense to 30% of adjusted earnings (except for certain small businesses), limitation ofenacted limiting the deduction for net operating losses from taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 to 80% of current year taxable income, ~~and elimination of~~eliminating net operating loss carrybacks ~~one time taxation of offshore earnings at reduced rates regardless of whether they are repatriated, immediate deductions~~ for ~~certain new investments instead of deductions for depreciation expense over time,~~losses arising in taxable years ending after December 31, 2017, and ~~modifying or repealing many business deductions~~allowing net operating losses to be carried forward indefinitely. On March 27, 2020 the Coronavirus Aid Relief, and ~~credits. We have calculated our best estimate~~Economic Security Act was enacted which modified the prior legislation to allow 100% of the ~~impact of~~net operating losses arising in tax years 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back five years. The Company does not have taxable income available in the ~~Tax Act~~carryback period. Net operating losses originating in ~~our year end deferred tax calculations in accordance with our understanding of the Tax Act and guidance available as of the~~taxable years beginning prior to January 1, 2018 are still subject to former carryover rules. The net operating loss carryforwards generated prior to this date of this filing. The amount related to the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities, based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, was an adjustment of $563,846.

On December 22, 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements.

In connection with our initial analysis of the impact of the Tax Act, we have recorded an adjustment of $563,846 for the revaluation of our net deferred tax liability for the year ended December 31, 2017.approximately $11,000,000 will expire between 2021 through 2038.

The supplemental unaudited presentation of proved reserve quantities and related standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows provides estimates only and does not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market values of the Company’s reserves. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than those of producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, significant changes to these estimates can be expected as future information becomes available.

Proved reserves are those estimated reserves of crude oil (including condensate and natural gas liquids) and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those expected to be recovered through existing wells, equipment, and operating methods.

Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances, which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible – from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations – prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Reserves

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves and the changes in standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves were prepared in accordance with provisions of ASC 932 - Extractive Activities - Oil and Gas. Future cash inflows at December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016~~2019 were computed by applying the unweighted, arithmetic average of the closing price on the first day of each month for the 12-month period prior to December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016~~2019 to estimated future production. Future production and development costs are computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and natural gas reserves at year-end, based on year-end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.

Future income tax expenses are calculated by applying appropriate year-end tax rates to future pretax net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves, less the tax basis of properties involved. Future income tax expenses give effect to permanent differences, tax credits and loss carry forwards relating to the proved oil and natural gas reserves. Future net cash flows are discounted at a rate of 10% annually to derive the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows. This calculation procedure does not necessarily result in an estimate of the fair market value of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and ~~2016~~2019 are as follows:

In accordance with SEC requirements, the pricing used in the Company’s standardized measure of future net revenues is based on the 12-month un-weighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for the period January through December for each period presented and adjusted by lease for transportation fees and regional price differentials. The use of SEC pricing rules may not be indicative of actual prices realized by the Company in the future.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management must evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 (a). The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company's financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or GAAP.

As of December 31, ~~2017,~~2020, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in the 2013 Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected its internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company's management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2)) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; ~~(3)~~(2) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and ~~(4)~~(3) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company's ~~chief financial officer~~Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of the Company's financial statements as of December 31, ~~2017~~2020 and communicated the matters to the Company's management.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items ~~(2)~~(1), ~~(3)~~(2) and ~~(4)~~(3) above did not have an effect on the Company's financial results. However, management believes that the lack of outside directors on the Company's board of directors can resulting in oversight in the establishing and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures which can affect the process of preparing Company's financial statements.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical accounting expertise and knowledge will result in proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the financial reporting department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel turn over issues within the financial reporting department occur. ~~This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues the Company may encounter in the future.~~

Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its internal controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

(a)Disclosure Controls and Procedures; Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of December 31, ~~2017.~~2020. Based on this evaluation, ~~Management~~management concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, ~~2017.~~2020.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2017.~~2020. Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, ~~2017,~~2020 the ~~Company's~~Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria.

To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures:

The additional hiring is contingent upon the ~~Company's~~Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding through equity or debt for its continued operational activities and corporate expenses. Management expects to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.

We understand that remediation of material weaknesses and deficiencies in internal controls are a continuing work in progress due to the issuance of new standards and promulgations. However, remediation of any known deficiency is among our highest priorities. Our management will periodically assess the progress and sufficiency of our ongoing initiatives and make adjustments as and when necessary.

	-	We evaluated the independence, objectivity, and professional qualifications of the Company’s independent petroleum engineer specialist and read the report prepared by the Company’s independent petroleum engineer specialist.

	-	To the extent key, sensitive inputs and assumptions used to determine proved reserve volumes and other cash flow inputs and assumptions are derived from the Company’s accounting records, such as historical pricing differentials, operating costs, estimated capital costs and working and net revenue interests, we tested management’s process for determining the assumptions, including examining the underlying support, on a sample basis. Specifically, our audit procedures involved testing management’s assumptions as follows:

		·	Compared the estimated pricing differentials used in the reserve report to realized prices related to revenue transactions recorded in the current year and examined contractual support for the pricing differentials;

		·	Evaluated the models used to estimate the operating costs at year-end compared to historical operating costs;

		·	Evaluating the Company’s evidence supporting the amount of proved undeveloped properties reflected in the reserve report including management’s intent to develop the proved undeveloped properties.

		·	We tested the accuracy of the Company’s depletion calculations and impairment evaluation and measurement that included these proved reserve reports;

		·	Evaluated the working and net revenue interests used in the reserve report by inspecting a sample of land and division order records;

		·	Applied analytical procedures to the forecasted production in the reserve reports by comparing to historical actual results and to the prior year or preceding period reserve reports.
