ROYAL QUANTUM GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 and 2009
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Royal Quantum Group, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 22, 1996 under the name PSM Corp. The Company changed its emphasis to the exploration and development of natural resources and on November 23, 2005 changed its name to Royal Quantum Group, Inc.
Interim Financial Statements
Royal Quantum Group, Inc.’s interim financial statements are unaudited. They contain all necessary adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) for a fair statement of the referenced interim period results. These interim period results do not indicate expected full-year results or results for future quarters/periods, due to several factors, including price volatility of crude oil and natural gas, price volatility of commodity derivatives, volatility of interest rates, estimates of reserves, drilling risks, geological risks, transportation restrictions, timing of acquisitions, product demand, market competition, interruption(s) in production, our ability to obtain additional capital, and the success of proposed enhanced oil recovery work (EOR). These interim financial statements should be read in conjun ction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in Royal Quantum Group, Inc.’s Form 10-K dated December 31, 2009.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Company has made assumptions in valuing its oil and natural gas reserves, which may affect the amounts at which oil and natural gas properties are recorded. The Company has also computed the components of the investments units sold in its private offerings using assumptions such as volatility, expected life and the risk-free interest rate (See Note 7).
Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial losses from operations and has a working capital deficit, which history and circumstance raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company had a net loss of $126,536 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2010 of $5,345,988. The Company has raised sufficient funds through the private sale of participating units to acquire working interests in five oil and gas wells. Three of the wells are currently producing as of September 30, 2010. Total gross revenue generated from t hese three wells during three and nine and month periods amounted to $103,364 and $361,696, respectively. It is anticipated that the fourth and fifth wells will be on-line and producing by December 31, 2010. Although the Company has been successful in raising the necessary funds to acquire these working interests, and has been able to generate net revenue from these wells, there is no assurance that these wells will continue to generate positive cash flow. Currently the net revenue generated from these wells is not sufficient to fund all of the Company’s operating costs. The Company is seeking to raise additional funds to acquire other oil and gas properties; however, there is no assurance that the necessary funds will be raised or even if the funds are raised, that the working interest acquired in the future will generate sufficient revenue to assist in the financing of the Company’s operations. Until such funding is obtained and/or positive results from planned property development m aterialize, doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern may remain.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 and 2009
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are reported at the customer’s outstanding balances less any allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
An allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is charged to operations in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible accounts at a level management believes is adequate to cover any probable losses. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on historical write-off percentages and information collected from individual customers. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance when collectibility is determined to be permanently impaired. Management has determined that as of September 30, 2010, no allowance is required.
Revenue Recognition
Oil and gas production revenues are recognized at the point of sale.
Oil and Gas Properties
The Company uses the full cost method of accounting under which all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas reserves, including costs related to unsuccessful wells and estimated future site restoration and abandonment, are capitalized until such time as the aggregate of such costs net of accumulated depletion and oil and natural gas related deferred income taxes, on a country-by-country basis, equals the sum of 1) the discounted present value (at 10%), using prices as of the end of each reporting period on a constant basis, of the Company’s estimated future net cash flows from estimated production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as determined by independent petroleum consultants, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reser ves but excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations accrued on the balance sheet; plus 2) the cost of major development projects and unproven properties not subject to depletion, if any; plus 3) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in costs subject to depletion; less 4) related income tax effects. If net capitalized costs exceed this limit, the excess is expensed unless subsequent market price changes eliminate or reduce the indicated write-down in accordance with U.S. SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 12D. Depletion is computed

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 and 2009
using the units-of-production method whereby capitalized costs, net of estimated salvage values, plus estimated future costs to develop proved reserves and satisfy asset retirement obligations, are amortized over the total estimated proved reserves on a country-by-country basis. Investments in major development projects are not depleted until either proved reserves are associated with the projects or impairment has been determined.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over the five year estimated useful life of the assets computed on the straight-line method.
Gains and losses resulting from sales and dispositions of property and equipment are included in current operations. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 amounted $93 and $93, respectively. Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 amounted $278 and $278, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company's primary functional currency is the U.S. dollar. For foreign operations whose functional currency is the local foreign currency, balance sheet accounts are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s revenue is dependent upon the successful efforts of the respective well’s operator. Currently production from the Company’s three wells is sold to one customer.
Loss per Share of Common Stock
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification “ASC” Topic 260-10, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented since the effect of the assumed conversion of warrants and debt to purchase common shares would have an ant i-dilutive effect. Potential common shares as of September 30, 2010 that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share include warrants to purchase 3,788,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and Unit holders’ option to convert their respective oil revenue interests into a total 984,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 and 2009
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 and similar state statutes require mine properties to be restored in accordance with specified standards. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 410-20 requires recognition of an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) for eventual reclamation of disturbed acreage remaining after mining has been completed. The Company records its reclamation obligations on a permit-by-permit basis using requirements as determined by the Office of Surface Mining of the U.S. Department of the Interior (“OSM”). The liability is calculated based upon the reclamation activities remaining after coal removal ceases, assuming that reclamation activities have been contemporaneous within state and federal guidelines during mining. A liability is recorded for the estim ated future cost that a third party would incur to perform the required reclamation and mine closure discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate. A corresponding increase in the asset carrying value of mineral rights is also recorded. The ARO asset is amortized on the units-of-production method over the proven and probable reserves associated with that permit.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC No. 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” ASC No. 360 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. As of September 30, 2010, the Company does not believ e there has been any impairment of its long-lived assets.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Pursuant to ASC No. 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet as of September 30, 2010. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivables, payables, and other obligations. The Company considers the carrying value of such amounts in the financial statements to approximate their fair value.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for its income taxes under the provisions of ASC No. 740 ”Income Taxes”. The method of accounting for income taxes under ASC No. 740 is an asset and liability method. The asset and liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between tax bases and financial reporting bases of other assets and liabilities.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (ASC Topic 855) “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. ASU No. 2010-09 requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date, in both issued and revised financial statements, through which the filer had evaluated subsequent events. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU No. 2010-06 amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 and 2009
The Company complies with the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. ASC 820-10-35, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures - Subsequent Measurement” (“ASC 820-10-35”), clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820-10-35 also requires that a fair value measurement reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available. Assumption s include the risks inherent in a particular valuation technique (such as a pricing model) and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the model. The Company also follows ASC 825 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, previously referred to as FAS 107-1 to expand required disclosures.
ASC 820-10-35 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10-35 are described below:
Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company utilizes the best available information in measuring fair value. The following table summarizes, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2010:

Item 2. Plan of Operation
This following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of management of the company. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may”, “shall”, “could”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “predict”, “probable”, “possible”, “should”, “continue”, or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.
The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. We cannot guaranty that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accur ate, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates |
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. In consultation with our Board of Directors, we have identified the following accounting policies that it believes are key to an understanding of its financial statements. These are important accounting policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective judgments.
Revenue Recognition
Oil and gas production revenues are recognized at the point of sale.
Oil and Gas Properties
The Company uses the full cost method of accounting under which all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas reserves, including costs related to unsuccessful wells and estimated future site restoration and abandonment, are capitalized until such time as the aggregate of such costs net of accumulated depletion and oil and natural gas related deferred income taxes, on a country-by-country basis, equals the sum of 1) the discounted present value (at 10%), using prices as of the end of each reporting period on a constant basis, of the Company’s estimated future net cash flows from estimated production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as determined by independent petroleum consultants, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reser ves but excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations accrued on the balance sheet; plus 2) the cost of major development projects and unproven properties not subject to depletion, if any; plus 3) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in costs subject to depletion; less 4) related income tax effects. If net capitalized costs exceed this limit, the excess is expensed unless subsequent market price changes eliminate
or reduce the indicated write-down in accordance with U.S. SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 12D. Depletion is computed using the units-of-production method whereby capitalized costs, net of estimated salvage values, plus estimated future costs to develop proved reserves and satisfy asset retirement obligations, are amortized over the total estimated |
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company's primary functional currency is the U.S. dollar. For foreign operations whose functional currency is the local foreign currency, balance sheet accounts are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 and similar state statutes require mine properties to be restored in accordance with specified standards. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 410-20, formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 (“SFAS No. 143”) requires recognition of an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) for eventual reclamation of disturbed acreage remaining after mining has been completed. The Company records its reclamation obligations on a permit-by-permit basis using requirements as determined by the Office of Surface Mining of the U.S. Department of the Interior (“OSM”). The liability is calculated based upon the reclamation activities remaining after coal removal ceases, assuming that reclamation activities have been contemporaneo us within state and federal guidelines during mining. A liability is recorded for the estimated future cost that a third party would incur to perform the required reclamation and mine closure discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate. A corresponding increase in the asset carrying value of mineral rights is also recorded. The ARO asset is amortized on the units-of-production method over the proven and probable reserves associated with that permit.
The Company adopted ACS Topic 820-10, formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“Topic 820-10”), at the beginning of fiscal year 2009 to measure the fair value of certain of its financial assets and liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis. The adoption of Topic 820-10 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under Topic 820-10 are described below: Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. The Company has no Level 1 assets or liabilities.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
The Company has no Level 2 assets. The Company’s Level 2 liabilities consist of notes payable, convertible debentures and a derivative warrant liability. The Company determines the fair value of notes payable and convertible debentures based on the effective yields of similar obligations. The Company determines the fair value of its derivative warrant liability based upon the trading prices of its common stock on the date of issuance and when applicable, on the last day of the quarter. The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Model in valuing the fair value of its derivative warrant liability.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 3 assets or liabilities.

Additionally, we accrued $10,980 on our asset recovery obligations related to our oil and gas properties. Therefore, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 we had total liabilities of $821,009. We had no other long term liabilities, commitments or contingencies. Other than anticipated explorations costs associated with the mineral and oil interests that we acquire and anticipated increases in the legal and accounting costs of being a public company, we are not aware of any other known trends, events or uncertainties which may affect our future liquidity.

Our Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve Months. Our focus is to acquire oil and gas, mineral and resource properties for exploration and development with the intent to bring the projects to feasibility at which time we will either contract out the operations or joint venture the project to qualified interested parties.
We had cash of $228,024 as of September 30, 2010. In the opinion of management, our available funds will not satisfy our working capital requirements for the next twelve months.
In August 2010 the company closed a private placement unit funding of 60 units totaling $150,000 for a 25% participation in the Bond #3-18 well and for working capital. 60% of the company’s net revenue received from the Bond #3-18 is allocated proportionally to the unit holders. Each of the 60 units was priced at $2,500 per unit for gross proceeds totaling $150,000 and consisted of 5,000 restricted common shares and 10,000 share purchase options at $0.25 per share with an expiration date of February 15, 2012. The Company issued a total of 300,000 shares and 600,000 options related to the private placement. The unit holder also has the option to surrender their interest in the well back to the company in exchange for 5,000 restricted common shares per unit surrendered for a period of 36 months from th e date of receipt of the first revenue check paid to the unit holders. The company paid a commission of $14,000 relating to the financing to a 3rd party. The $14,000 was converted to a proportionate interest in the private placement, resulting in the issuance of an additional 28,000 restricted shares and 56,000 options.

The $14,000 was converted to a proportionate interest in the private placement, resulting in the issuance of an additional 28,000 restricted shares and 56,000 options.
In January 2010 the company closed a private placement unit funding of 60 units totaling $150,000 for a 25% participation in the Bond #2-18 well and for working capital. 60% of the company’s net revenue received from the Bond #2-18 is allocated proportionally to the unit holders. Each of the 60 units was priced at $2,500 per unit for gross proceeds totaling $150,000 and consisted of 5,000 restricted common shares and 10,000 share purchase options at $0.25 per share with an expiration date of July 15, 2011.

The $14,000 was converted to a proportionate interest in the private placement, resulting in the issuance of an additional 28,000 restricted shares and 56,000 options.
The company intends to continue to raise additional capital for participation in additional oil and gas projects.
Our forecast for the period for which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations involves risks and uncertainties and actual results could fail as a result of a number of factors. We will need to raise additional capital to expand our operations to the point at which we are able to operate profitably. Other than anticipated explorations costs associated with the resource and mineral interests that we acquire and anticipated increases in the legal and accounting costs of being a public company, we are not aware of any other known trends, events or uncertainties, which may affect our future liquidity.
In the event that we experience a shortfall in our capital, we intend to pursue capital through public or private financing as well as borrowings and other sources, such as our officers, directors and principal shareholders. We cannot guaranty that additional funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, then our ability to expand our operations may be significantly hindered. If adequate funds are not available, we believe that our officers, directors and principal shareholders will contribute funds to pay for our expenses to achieve our objectives over the next twelve months.
Our belief that our officers, directors and principal shareholders will pay our expenses is based on the fact that our officers, directors and principal shareholders collectively own approximately 44% of our outstanding common stock. We believe that our officers, directors and principal shareholders will continue to pay our expenses as long as they maintain their ownership of our common stock, so long as they do not incur financial hardship.
We are not currently conducting any research and development activities. We do not anticipate conducting such activities in the near future. We do not anticipate that we will purchase or sell any significant equipment. In the event that we expand our customer base, then we may need to hire additional employees or independent contractors as well as purchase or lease additional equipment.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
