BIG CAT ENERGY CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1:  Presentation, Organization and Nature of Operations

Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Big Cat Energy Corporation (the “Company”) at July 31, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements pursuant to, instructions to Form 10-Q, and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2010. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation to ma ke the Company’s financial statements not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the period ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The April 30, 2010 balance sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2010.

Description of Operations

Big Cat Energy Corporation (“Big Cat” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, owns the exclusive right to a patented technology known as Aquifer Recharge Injection Device (ARID) which allows Coal Bed Methane (CBM) operators to re-inject water produced from productive coal seams. The ARID tool uses the existing well bore to move water from the producing coal seam to depleted aquifers of similar water quality. With the ARID tool and process in use, the production well will not require the discharge of any produced water, or the use of a separate re-injection well for any of the produced water. The produced water never leaves the well bore as it is redirected into different aquifer zones. These aquifers are identified from the geophysical logs.  The Company is in the development stage in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities. The Company has been in the development stage since inception and has yet to generate any significant revenue-producing operations. Activities since its inception have primarily involved its organization, development of the Company and more recently, its ARID initiative.

Note 2:  Liquidity

Going Concern

As of July 31, 2010, the Company had a working capital deficit of $165,196 and stockholders’ deficit of $19,361. The Company has realized minimal revenues and has incurred significant losses from operations and used significant cash flow to fund operations for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report. Historically, Big Cat has relied upon outside investor funds to maintain its operations and develop its business. Big Cat’s plan for continuation anticipates continued funding from investors and receipt of approved proposals. This funding would be used for operations, for working capital, as well as business expansion during the upcoming fiscal year. The Company can provide no assurance that additional investor funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. Th ese conditions raise substantial doubt about Big Cat’s ability to continue operations as a going concern.

7

Big Cat’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital through debt or equity financing and ultimately by increasing revenue and achieving profitable operations. The Company can offer no assurance that it will be successful in its efforts to raise additional proceeds or achieve profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

Note 3:  Summary of Accounting Policies:

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

Advertising-The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.

Intangible Assets – The Company capitalized the costs to patent the ARID process and ARID trademark. These costs are being amortized over the life, twenty (20) years, of the patents on a straight line basis. The intangibles serve as collateral for the accrued deferred salaries.  The Company expects to record amortization expense for subsequent period as follows:

FY 2011                      $6,128

FY 2012                      $6,184

FY 2013                      $6,184

FY 2014                      $6,184

FY 2015                      $6,184

Thereafter                      $78,250

Concentrations of Credit Risk – The Company’s cash equivalents are exposed to concentrations of credit risk.  The Company manages and controls this risk by investing the cash equivalents and short term investments with major financial institutions.

Furniture and Equipment– Furniture and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is provided on furniture, fixtures and equipment using the straight-line method over an estimated service life of three to seven years.

The cost of normal maintenance and repairs is charged to operating expenses as incurred.  Material expenditures which increase the life of an asset are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated remaining useful life of the asset.

Concentration of Customer Base-The Company has three customers as of July 31, 2010 compared to two as of July 31, 2009.

8

Income Taxes – Income taxes are accounted for by recognizing deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets, liabilities and carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefit which, more likely than not, are not expected to be realized.

We adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes as of April 1, 2008. This topic provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of ASC 740 and in subsequent periods. We have identified no significant uncertain tax positions as of July 31, 2010 or 2009. The cumulative effect of adopting ASC 740 has not resulted in a liability on the balance sheet. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the date of adoption was zero.

We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued as of July 31, 2010 or 2009.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The fair market value of these financial instruments approximates or is equal to the book value due to the short term nature of these balances.

Fair Value Measurements are determined by the Company’s adoption of ASC 820 Fair Market Measurement and Disclosures as of May 1, 2008, including the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal (or most advantageous market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2- Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3- Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions,

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effect.

Stock-Based Compensation– The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which permits entities to recognize as expense over the vesting period, the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. The Company recorded expense for stock-based compensation for the three months ended July 31, 2010 of $14,350 compared to $32,037 for the three months ended July 31, 2009.

Research and Development Expenditures – Costs related to the research, design, and development of products are charged to research and development expenses as incurred.  The Company did not incur any research and development costs for the three months ended July 31, 2010 or 2009.

9

Net Loss Per Share – Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Contingently issuable shares are included in the computation of basic net income (loss) per share when the related conditions are satisfied.  Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.  Potentially dilutive securities consist of contingently issuable shares, the incremental common shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock or convertible debt (using the “if converted” method) and shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (u sing the “treasury stock” method).  Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

As of July 31, 2010 the Company had 43,844,334 shares of common stock outstanding and options to purchase 12,235,000 shares issued that would be potentially dilutive. At July 31, 2009, the Company had 42,041,000 shares of common stock outstanding.  The Company has options outstanding to purchase 11,035,000 shares that would be potentially dilutive. The options outstanding were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Other Comprehensive Income – The Company does not have any items of other comprehensive income for the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009.  Therefore, total comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net income (loss) for these periods.

Revenue Recognition-The Company leases its ARID tool and process to its customers. Revenue is recognized equally over the term of lease. When the lease is executed the Company records deferred revenue as an Other Current Liability for those amounts paid for lease commitments for the next 12 months and a Long Term Obligation for those amounts in excess of 12 months. At July 31, 2010 the Company recorded $35,000 as Other Current Liabilities for deferred revenue.

Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years’ amounts to conform to the classifications used in the current year.  Such reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s net loss in any of the periods presented.

Recent Pronouncements

We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.

Note 4:   Shareholders’ Equity

Private Offerings

Warrants must be exercised on or before July 28, 2012.

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the terms of the warrants and the transaction documents, the warrants were determined to represent an equity transaction and, therefore, the fair value of the warrants are contained within the equity section and not separately recorded apart from the common shares issued as part of the private placement.

The above private offerings were made in reliance on an exemption from registration in the United States under Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Note 5:   Stock Option Plan

The Company has adopted the 2007 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”), as amended. The Company has reserved 5,000,000 shares of common stock for the plan.  During Fiscal 2009the Board of Directors granted options to purchase 1,665,000 shares to directors, officers and key employees and consultants of the Company, effective December 31, 2008. The exercise price of the options was $0.12, the closing price of Company shares on December 31, 2008. The options grant on December 31, 2008 become exercisable on December 31, 2009 and expire on December 31, 2014. During Fis cal 2010 the Board of Directors granted options to purchase 410,000 shares to outside directors and key employees of the Company, effective January 4, 2010. The exercise price of the options was $0.15, the closing price of Company shares on January 4, 2010. The options granted on January 4, 2010 become exercisable on January 4, 2011 and expire on January 4, 2015. Also during Fiscal 2010, Charles Peck and George Hampton, resigned as Directors of the Company and forfeited their stock options to purchase 600,000 shares each.

As of July 31, 2010, and 2009 the options are fully vested, however, the agreement only allows for a certain number of options to be exercised each year through December 31, 2014.  Due to the limitations on exercising the options, and the fact that they would expire if the employee resigns or is terminated for cause, the Company has treated the options as if they vest over a two-year period.   There have been no options exercised under the terms of the Plan.

The Company expects to recognize approximately $38,000 in stock compensation expense ratably through April 30, 2011.  There have been no options exercised under the terms of the Plan.

Note 6:   Income Tax

The Federal net operating loss (NOL) carryforward of approximately $4,216,000 as of July 31, 2010 expires on various dates through 2030.  Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the amount of taxable income which can be offset by NOL carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in ownership) of a loss corporation.  Generally, after a change in control, a loss corporation cannot deduct NOL carryforwards in excess of the Section 382 limitation.  Due to these “change in ownership” provisions, utilization of NOL carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods.  We have not performed a Section 382 analysis.  However , if performed, Section 382 may be found to limit potential future utilization of our NOL carryforwards.  We have established a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets because, based on the weight of available evidence including our continued operating losses, it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Because of the full valuation allowance, no income tax expense or benefit is reflected on the statement of operations.

Note 7:              Related Party Transactions

For the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, the officers of the company provided management services to its affiliated company, Sterling Oil & Gas Company. The Company did not record any income from Sterling for these services. The Company also retained Wharton Consulting to provide marketing service to the Company. Thomas E, Wharton, a Director for the Company, is the managing partner of Wharton Consulting. The Company recorded consulting fees to Mr. Wharton and Wharton Consulting of $36,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2010, compared to $4,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2009. At July 31, 2010, the Company owed Wharton Consulting $12,000 and $6,000 at April 30, 2010, both of which have been included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet.

ITEM 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report includes certain statements that may be deemed to be “forward-looking” statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. All statements include in this Quarterly Report, other than statements of historical facts, address matters that we reasonably expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future. Forward-looking statements may relate to, among other things:

§   our future financial position, including working capital and anticipated cash flow;

§   the risks of the oil and gas industry, as they relate to demand for leasing the ARID tool;

§   market demand;

§   risks and uncertainties involving geology of oil and gas deposits;

§   the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to costs and expenses;

§   health, safety and environmental risks;

§   uncertainties as to the availability and cost of financing; and

§   the possibility that government policies or laws may change or governmental approvals may be delayed or withheld.

Additional factors may exist that could adversely affect our business and financial performance as reported in this report. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Forward looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are made as of the respective dates set forth in this Quarterly Report. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management as of the date the statements are made. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Plan of Operations

The plan of operations discussed below in this Quarterly Report, reflects the operations of our current business which is to lease or sell the ARID tool and process to oil and gas companies.

We are a development stage company and have realized minimal revenues from our current business operations.

13

We are in the process of completing field tests of the ARID tool and process, and we are continuing to refine the ARID system to improve field use.  Currently, we have six ARID tools operating in CBM (coal bed methane) gas well bores in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming and have leased another seven to be installed in 2010.

Big Cat has received requests for proposals from major coal bed methane operators (CBM/CSNG) in Wyoming and Montana.  Acceptance of any of Big Cat’s proposals would substantially increase the Company’s sales and cash flow.  Further, the ARID In-bore Aquifer Recharge Injection System has been selected as the water handling component for a proof of concept project to enhance the public water supply in the Southwestern United States. The project team includes, among others, a major university and a US Federal Agency. The project involves the collection and re-injection of a combined solution of treated brine water and drinking water into existing drinking water aquifers to enhance and preserve the public drinking water supply for future use.

Big Cat is also in discussions with a service provider in Australia to evaluate the use of the ARID System for handling Coal Seam Natural Gas produced water in Australia prior to major CSNG development in that Country.  

If final contracts are achieved for one or more of these projects, fulfillment of the above proposals and new business opportunities may require additional working capital. The Company is currently exploring potential financing options, including private placement and debt opportunities, to provide for the Company’s potential future cash flow requirements.

Patents and Trademarks

Patent Status:

In the United States Big Cat has two pending regular patent applications before the United States Patent Office (“USPTO”).   The first application claims the use of a single device for water handling in a well bore and the second application claims the use of multiple devices for water handling in a well bore.  We have not yet received the first office action on the first application. We would expect to receive the first office action within the next couple of months.  In the second patent application, we have received a first office actions and our response has overcome the initial concerns cited by the USPTO.  We have also received a second action on the merits and have submitted our response.

In Europe, Big Cat has one pending regular patent application.  We have received and responded to the first office action in that matter and are responding to the second action from the European Patent Office.

In Canada, Big Cat has one pending regular patent application.  We have received the first office action in that matter and have responded to that action.

In Australia, Big Cat has one pending regular patent application.  We have demanded normal examination of the application and should shortly receive a first action on the merits.

 Trademark Status:

            In the United States, the Certification of Registration for the ARID mark was issued on January 12, 2010 and will remain in effect for 10 years.

14

Also, in the United States, the word mark BIG CAT and the BIG CAT ENERGY CORP. & Design marks have been opposed by Caterpillar Inc. on grounds of likelihood of confusion with and dilution of Caterpillar’s CAT mark.  The opposition proceeding is in the discovery phase at present. Once sufficient discovery has taken place so that the parties can better assess the matter, we will determine whether settlement is an option.  The discovery period is currently set to close in October 2010.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended July 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended July 31, 2009

We reported a net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2010 of $218,449 compared with a net loss of $296,801 during the three months ended July 31, 2009. The net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2010 included $14,350 attributable to non-cash consideration related to the issuance of stock options to management compared to $32,037 for the same period in 2009.

We recorded personnel costs of $112,688 during the three month period ended July 31, 2010, as compared to $160,205 during the same period in 2009. As noted above, we recorded a stock based compensation charge of $14,350 for the three month period ended July 31, 2010, compared with $29,562 for the same period in 2009.

We incurred professional fees of $54,979 during the three month period ended July 31, 2010, as compared to $52,474 during the same period 2009. Most of the professional fees relate to the cost of required for SEC filings.

We incurred selling costs of $57,831 for the three months ended July 31, 2010, as compared to $69,251 for the same period in 2009. The decrease is a result in lower sales salaries in the three months ended July 31, 2010.

Our other general and administrative costs were $15,392 during the three month period ended July 31, 2010, as compared to $33,737 during the same period in 2009. The major component of other general and administrative costs is insurance expense in both years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of July 31, 2009, we had working capital deficit of $165,196; therefore, we may seek additional sources of capital for the coming year.

Cash used in operating activities was $168,137 for the three months ended July 31, 2010, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $30,946 for the three months ended July 31, 2009. For the three months ended July 31, 2010, cash used in operations was principally from our net loss offset by non-cash compensation expense of $14,350 and stock in lieu of payments of $18,167.  In the three month period ended July 31, 2009 cash provided by operations was principally attributed to our net loss offset by our non-cash compensation expense of $32,037 and cash from trading securities $305,185.

Cash flows used in investing activities were $11,139 for the three months ended July 31, 2010, and $7,027 for the three months ended July 31, 2009. Both amounts are nominal.

15

There were no cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended July 31, 2010 compared to $500,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2009. For the three months ended July 31, 2009 cash from financing was principally from the private placement of our stock.

During the three months ended July 31, 2010, the Company issued 363,334 shares of restricted common stock to non-officer employees in lieu of payment of $18,167 in salary.

There were no financing transactions for the three months ended July 31, 2010.

During the three months ended July 31, 2009 the Company completed a private placement of 10,000,000 units for $500,000 ($.05 per unit), each unit consisting of one restricted share of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one half restricted share of its common stock each exercisable for $.075.

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the terms of the warrants and the transaction documents, the warrants were determined to represent an equity transaction and, therefore, the fair value of the warrants are contained within the equity section and not separately recorded apart from the common shares issued as part of the private placement.

The above private offerings were made in reliance on an exemption from registration in the United States under Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Financial Instruments and Other Information

As of July 31, 2010 we had cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which are each carried at approximate fair value due to the short maturity date of those instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

Critical Accounting Polices and Estimates

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of any oil and gas reserves, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, the Company believes that its estimates are reasonable.

Equity Based Compensation

On January 1, 2006, we adopted ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options based on estimated fair value.

16

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our statement of operations. Prior to the adoption of ASC 718, we had no stock-based compensation awarded to employees and directors.

Recent Pronouncements

We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

From time-to-time, we may enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactionsthat can give rise to off-balance sheet obligations. As of July 31, 2010 and April 30, 2010, there were no off –balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of July 31, 2010.     Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of July 31, 2010 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended July 31, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
