Item 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM'S REPORT

Board of Directors

Castleguard Energy, Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Castleguard Energy, Inc. as of June 30, 2004, and the related statements of income, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the three-month and six-month periods then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. A review of interim financial information consists principally of analytical procedures applied to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CASTLEGUARD ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
(a)	Description of Business
	Castleguard Energy, Inc. is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration for and the acquisition, development and exploitation of crude oil and natural gas properties, and in the production of crude oil and natural gas in North America through working interests operated by other parties. The Company's activities are conducted in the states of Louisiana, Texas and Alabama. The Company's corporate offices are located in Dallas, Texas.
(b)	Basis of Presentation

They do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004.
(c)	Net Income per Weighted Average Share

(d)	Oil and Gas Sales

Note 2 - Long-Term Debt

     In October 2003, the Company entered into a revised debt agreement with a commercial bank. The agreement provides for a $2,000,000 term note with an initial borrowing base of $322,333 which is reduced at the rate of $21,667 per month. Principal payments of $21,667 per month are due when the amounts outstanding on this note exceed the borrowing base. At June 30, 2004, the borrowing base was less than the outstanding note balance. Interest is payable monthly at the bank's prime rate (4.0% at June 30, 2004) plus .75 percent. The note is collateralized by all of the Company's oil and gas properties. Debt covenants restrict other debt, pledge of assets, sales of assets, payment of dividends, mergers and changes in ownership.

     In March 2004 and in June 2004, the Company extended until August 2004 the due date of principal payments which were required by the agreement. Payments of $21,667 a month plus interest will now be due starting in August 2004 unless further extended.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB includes "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27a of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and section 21e of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "exchange act"). Specifically, all statements other than statements of historical facts included in this report regarding Castleguard Energy Inc.'s financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management of the Company for future operations are forward- looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company's management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to the Company's management. When used in this report, the words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect" and "intend" and words or phrases of similar import, as they relate to the Company or Company management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements refl ect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions related to certain factors including, without limitation, price levels for oil and natural gas, concentration of oil and natural gas reserves and production, drilling risks, uncertainty of oil and gas reserves, risks associated with the development of additional revenues and with the acquisition of oil and gas properties and other energy assets, operating hazards and uninsured risks, general economic conditions, governmental regulation, changes in industry practices, marketing risks, one time events and other factors described herein ("cautionary statements"). Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Based upon changing conditions, should any one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any underlying assumpt ions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected or intended. The Company does not intend to update these forward- looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward- looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the applicable cautionary statements. Reference is made to disclosure regarding "Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Statements" included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003, which is incorporated herein by reference.

     The Company is an independent oil and gas exploration company whose strategic focus is the application of advanced seismic imaging and computer-aided exploration technologies in the systematic search for commercial hydrocarbon reserves, primarily in the states of Texas and Louisiana. The Company attempts to leverage its technical experience and expertise with seismic technology to identify exploration and exploitation projects with significant potential economic return. The company intends to participate in selected exploration projects as a non-operating, working interest owner, sharing both risk and rewards with its partners. The Company has and will continue to pursue exploration opportunities in regions where the Company believes significant opportunity for discovery of oil and gas exists. By reducing drilling risk through seismic technology, the Company seeks to improve the expected return on investment in its oil and gas exploration proje cts. The Company attempts to limit capital requirements by forming industry alliances and exchanges a portion of its interest for cash and/or a carried interest in its exploration projects.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Month Periods Ended June 30, 2004 vs. 2003

     Second quarter 2004 (this year) net income fell 44% to $15,144 ($.00 per share) from $26,922 ($.00 per share) in the second quarter of 2003 (last year) as the result of a continuing decline in production volumes of natural gas (33%) and oil (37.8%) compared with last year. Natural gas sales volumes were 11,354 mcf this year versus 16,965 mcf last year and oil production declined 342 barrels to 563 barrels.                                     

-9-

      Lease operating expenses and depreciation, depletion and amortization both declined following the decline in volumes.

Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2004 vs. 2003

     Six months net income 2004 (this year) of $23,116 was down 73% compared to last years of $87,150 as a result of the same decline in production volumes which has occurred in the Company's Minden Louisiana interests. The declining volumes drove a 46% decline in revenues.

     Gas volumes this year were 21,019 mcf down from 38,945 mcf last year.    Oil volumes decreased from 2,195 barrels in the first half of last year to 1,233 barrels this year. Prices for oil were higher this year versus last but gas prices eased slightly. Average natural gas prices were $5.90 per mcf compared to $6.22 per mcf last year; average oil prices of $30.09 per barrel last year rose to $34.94 per barrel this year.

     Operating expenses followed the down trend in production volumes and declined compared to last year. General and administrative was lower by 19% and interest cost was down 7.7% compared to last year from a combination of rates and debt balances.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash flow from operations for the first six months of 2004 produced approximately $68,000 in cash flow before changes in working capital. That cash flow, combined with $80,000 in borrowings, funded our share of a new well in Minden which began production in June. Our ability to make reductions of the debt depends on cash flow from the new well and will likely require us to further rearrange repayment terms, seek other alterations to the revolver and/or seek other sources of capital. The Board of Directors is closely monitoring the availability of revenues and considering options for capital.

Item 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

     The President/Secretary/Treasurer/Director of the Company has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the President/Secretary/Treasurer/Director concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that all material information relating to the Company required to be filed in this quarterly report has been made known to them in a timely manner.

(b) Changes in internal controls.

     There have been no significant changes made in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the end of the period covered by this report.
