(Formerly ante4, Inc.)
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These condensed consolidated financial statements present the financial condition and results of operations of Voyager Oil & Gas, Inc. (formerly ante4, Inc. (Note 11)), (the “Company,” or “Voyager”), as of the dates and for the periods indicated. On April 16, 2010, the Company, Plains Energy Acquisition, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”) and Plains Energy Investments, Inc. (“the Target Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub merged with and into the Target Company, with the Target Company remaining as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). On the Closing Date, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Delaware to change its name from ante4, Inc. to Voyager Oil & Gas, Inc. Going forward, the Company will be a holding company parent of the Target Company, and the Company’s business operations following the Merger will be those of the Target Company.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) has been condensed or omitted. For further information, please refer to the annual audited financial statements of the Company, and the related notes, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2010, from which the information as of that date is derived. Subsequent events were evaluated to determine if adjustments to or disclosure in these condensed consolidated financial statements were necessary. Certain reclassifications were made for comparability with the current period presentation, specifically cash equivalents and current investment in debt securities balances.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for the current interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accounting estimates that require the most significant, difficult and subjective judgments include the:
· valuation of investments in debt securities and put rights;
· valuation of non-marketable equity investments; and
· determination of current and deferred income taxes;
2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) - Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.” ASU 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 that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASC 2010-09 was effective upon issuance. The adoption of this standard had no effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades.” ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in ASU 2010-13 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this standard will not have an effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

3. CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION RECEIVABLE
As a result of a transaction between the Company and Peerless Media Ltd. (“Buyer”) during fiscal year 2009, pursuant to which, the Company sold substantially all of its operating assets (the “Transaction”), the Company is entitled to receive, in perpetuity, 5% of gross gaming revenue and 5% of other revenue of the Buyer generated by our former business and assets that was sold to Buyer in the Transaction. Buyer has guaranteed a minimum payment to us of $3 million for such revenue over the three-year period following the closing of the Transaction. The Company prepared a discounted cash flow model to determine an estimated fair value of this portion of the purchase price as of November 2, 2009. This value is recorded on the balance sheet as of January 3, 2010 and remains unchanged on the balance sheet as of April 4, 2010. In connection with the Merger described above, on April 16, 2010 the Company distributed this asset to a wholly-owned subsidiary, ante5, Inc. As soon as is practicable following the Merger, ante5 intends to file a registration statement on Form 10 and an Information Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of spinning off the ante5 shares from the Company to the stockholders of record of the Company on April 15, 2010.
4. INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES AND PUT RIGHTS
As of April 4, 2010, investments in debt securities and put rights consist of the following (in thousands):
Description | | Cost | | Unrealized Gains/(Losses) | | Fair Value | |
Maturity less than 1 year | | | | | | | |
Auction rate securities (trading securities) | | $ | 3,365 | | $ | | $ | 3,365 | |
Put rights (trading securities) | | 335 | | | | 335 | |
Corporate bonds (available for sale) | | 1,714 | | 10 | | 1,724 | |
Certificates of deposit (available for sale) | | 5,285 | | 6 | | 5,291 | |
| | | | | | | |
| | $ | 10,699 | | $ | 16 | | $ | 10,715 | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Description | | Cost | | Unrealized Gains/(Losses) | | Fair Value | |
Maturity 1 year to 5 years | | | | | | | |
Corporate bonds (available for sale) | | $ | 1,827 | | $ | (11 | ) | $ | 1,816 | |
Certificates of deposit (available for sale) | | 962 | | 2 | | 964 | |
| | $ | 2,789 | | $ | (9 | ) | $ | 2,780 | |
Investments in debt and other securities that are classified as available for sale or trading securities are the only assets or liabilities that the Company is required to measure at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis. The estimated fair value is determined using inputs from among the three levels of the fair value hierarchy set forth in FASB ASC Topic 820 as follows:
Level 1 inputs — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which prices are available at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.) and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 inputs — Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an orderly market. Management develops these inputs based on the best information available, including internally-developed data and other valuation models.
In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. None of the Company’s financial instruments are measured based on Level 2 inputs.
As of April 4, 2010, financial assets that are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis consist of the following (in thousands):
5
Table of Contents
Description | | Level 1 | | Level 3 | | Total | |
Corporate bonds | | $ | 3,540 | | $ | — | | $ | 3,540 | |
Certificates of deposit | | 6,255 | | — | | 6,255 | |
Auction rate securities | | — | | 3,365 | | 3,365 | |
Put rights | | — | | 335 | | 335 | |
Total assets at estimated fair value | | $ | 9,795 | | $ | 3,700 | | $ | 13,495 | |
For financial assets that utilize Level 1 inputs, the Company utilizes direct observable price quotes in active markets for identical assets. Due to the lack of observable market quotes on the Company’s auction rate securities (“ARS”) portfolio and related put rights, the Company utilizes valuation models that rely exclusively on Level 3 inputs including those that are based on management’s estimates of expected cash flow streams and collateral values, default risk underlying the security, long term broker credit rating, discount rates and overall capital market liquidity. The valuation of the Company’s ARS portfolio and related put rights is subject to uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Factors that may affect the estimated fair value include changes to credit ratings of ARS as well as to the assets collateralizing the securities, rates of default of the underlying assets and collateral value, broker default risk, discount rates, and evolving market conditions affecting the liquidity of ARS.
The following table summarizes activity in the Company’s ARS portfolio and put rights (in thousands):
Description | | ARS | | Put Rights | | Total | |
Balance — January 3, 2010 | | $ | 3,455 | | $ | 345 | | $ | 3,800 | |
Change in value of put rights, included in earnings | | — | | (10 | ) | (10 | ) |
Change in value of ARS portfolio, included in earnings | | 10 | | — | | 10 | |
Settlements, net of purchases | | (100 | ) | — | | (100 | ) |
Balance — April 4, 2010 | | $ | 3,365 | | $ | 335 | | $ | 3,700 | |
In November 2008, the Company accepted an offer from UBS AG (“UBS”) that created new rights and obligations related to the ARS portfolio (the “Put Rights”). The Put Rights permit the Company to require UBS to purchase the ARS at par value, at any time during the period of June 30, 2010 through July 2, 2012. UBS also has the right, in its discretion, to purchase or sell the ARS at any time until July 2, 2012, so long as par value is received. The Company expects to sell the ARS under the Put Rights. However, if the Put Rights are not exercised before July 2, 2012 they will expire and UBS will have no further obligation to buy the ARS.
UBS’s obligations under the Put Rights are not secured by its assets and do not require UBS to obtain any financing to support its performance obligations under the Put Rights. UBS has disclaimed any assurance that it will have sufficient financial resources to satisfy its obligations under the Put Rights and UBS’s obligations are not guaranteed by any other party.
The Put Rights represent an asset that is separate from the ARS. The Company initially recorded $605,000 as the fair value of the Put Rights asset in interest income. The Company also elected to measure the Put Rights at fair value under FASB ASC Topic 825, which permits an entity to elect the fair value option for recognized financial assets. As a result, unrealized gains and losses are included in interest income and the value of the Put Rights decreased by $10,000 in the three months ended April 4, 2010. The Company did not elect the fair value option for its other financial assets and liabilities.
In connection with the acceptance of the UBS offer in November 2008, the Company transferred the ARS from investments available-for-sale to trading securities in accordance with ASC 320. The transfer to trading securities reflects management’s intent to exercise the Put Rights during the period June 30, 2010 to July 3, 2012. Prior to the agreement with UBS, the Company’s intent was to hold the ARS until the market recovered. At the time of transfer, the $605,000 unrealized loss on ARS was included in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss). Upon transfer to trading securities, the Company recognized a $605,000 reduction in interest income. Unrealized gains and losses are included in interest income and the value of the ARS portfolio increased by $10,000 in the three months ended April 4, 2010. Prior to accepting the UBS offer, the ARS were recorded as investments available-for-sale.
UBS provided the Company with a line of credit, secured by ARS held by UBS, equal to 75% of the estimated fair value of the ARS. The Company borrowed $2,661,000 under the line of credit from UBS in February 2009. Interest is charged at the actual interest rate earned by the ARS. The line of credit is due upon demand. At April 4, 2010, $2,436,000 was outstanding under the line of credit, with an additional $88,000 remaining credit available to the Company under the line of credit.
5. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value as measured using level 1 inputs due to the short period of time to maturity and observable inputs in active markets. Investments in debt securities and put rights are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and information about these investments is in Note 4. The fair value of the Company’s line of credit is not
6
Table of Contents
practicable to estimate because the line of credit, the ARS collateral, the Put Rights and the settlement of certain litigation rights are all interrelated and result from a settlement by UBS with regulators, attorneys general and others.
As of April 4, 2010, the estimated fair values of financial instruments are as follows (in thousands):
| | Carrying Amount | | Fair Value | |
Cash equivalents | | $ | 18,060 | | $ | 18,060 | |
Investments in debt securities and put rights | | 13,495 | | 13,495 | |
Line of credit | | (2,436 | ) | Not estimated | |
| | | | | | | |
6. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
All stock option expense was recorded as of January 4, 2010 resulting from the acceleration of all options from the asset sale to Peerless Media, as well as the cancellation of unvested CEO stock options on January 1, 2010. The following table summarizes stock option activity during the three months ended April 4, 2010:
| | | | Number of Common Shares | |
| | Options outstanding | | Exercisable | | Weighted ave. exercise price | |
Balances at January 3, 2010 | | 324,666 | | 324,666 | | $ | 3.53 | |
Granted | | — | | — | | — | |
Forfeited/exchanged | | (26,666 | ) | (26,666 | ) | 2.21 | |
Exercised | | (29,000 | ) | (29,000 | ) | 0.37 | |
Balances at April 4, 2010 | | 269,000 | | 269,000 | | $ | 3.12 | |
7. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company does not expect to pay any federal or state income tax for 2010 as a result of the losses recorded during the quarter ended April 4, 2010 as well as additional losses expected for the remainder of 2010. Accounting standards require the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is “more likely than not” that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of April 4, 2010, the Company maintains a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets. Based on these requirements no provision for income taxes has been recorded for the period ended April 4, 2010. There were no recorded unrecognized tax benefits at the end of the reporting period.
8. NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net earnings/(loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by adjusting weighted-average outstanding shares, assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive stock options and awards (common stock equivalents). However, common stock equivalents are not used to calculate diluted per share amounts for loss periods because the effect would be anti-dilutive. The Company excluded 269,000 and 1,784,000 outstanding stock options for the three months ended April 4, 2010 and March 29, 2009, respectively, from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because they are considered anti-dilutive.
9. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in various inquiries, administrative proceedings and litigation relating to matters arising in the normal course of business. The Company is not currently a defendant in any material litigation and is not aware of any threatened litigation that could have a material effect on the Company. Management is not able to estimate the minimum loss to be incurred, if any, as a result of the final outcome of these matters but believes they are not likely to have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial position or results of operations and, accordingly, no provision for loss has been recorded.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The Company is a Delaware corporation formed for the purpose of providing capital investments for acreage acquisitions and working interests in existing or planned hydrocarbon production with a special focus on scaleable, repeatable natural gas plays with established operators. Our business is initially expected to focus on properties in Montana and North Dakota. We do not intend to limit our focus to any single geographic area, however, because we want to remain flexible and intend to pursue the best opportunities available to it. Our required capital commitment may grow if the opportunity presents itself and depending upon the results of initial testing and development activities.
On April 16, 2010, the Company, Acquisition Sub and the Target Company entered into the Merger Agreement. Under the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub merged with and into the Target Company, with the Target Company remaining as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On the Closing Date, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Delaware to change its name from ante4, Inc. to Voyager Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Voyager”). Going forward, Voyager will be a holding company parent of the Target Company, and Voyager’s business operations following the Merger will be those of the Target Company.
When operating our former business, we created internationally branded entertainment and consumer products driven by the development, production and marketing of televised programming based on gaming themes. The current season of the World Poker Tour®, or WPT® television series - Season Eight, based on a series of high-stakes poker tournaments, currently airs on Fox Sports Net in the United States, and has been licensed for broadcast globally. In January 2008, we launched ClubWPT.com, an innovative subscription-based online poker club targeted to the estimated 60 million poker players in the United States, which is currently offered in 38 states. Through November 2008, we offered a real-money online gaming website which prohibited wagers from players in the U.S. and other restricted jurisdictions. We also licensed our brand to companies in the business of poker equipment and instruction, apparel, publishing, electronic and wireless entertainment, DVD/home entertainment, casino games and giftware and were engaged in the sale of corporate sponsorships. In addition, through March 2009, we developed and marketed online and mobile games supporting the WPT China National Traktor Poker Tour™.
Because the merger occurred subsequent to the end of our first fiscal quarter of 2010, except as specifically described below, the following description of our business describes our business prior to the closing of the merger.
Business
Voyager’s primary focus is to acquire high value leasehold interests specifically targeting oil shale resource prospects in the continental United States. We believe our competitive advantage will be our ability to continue to acquire leases directly from the mineral owners through “organic leasing.” Organic leasing allows Voyager to acquire acreage on more favorable terms than our competitors. Because of our size and maneuverability, we are able to deploy our land acquisition teams into specific areas based on the latest industry information. We will generate revenue by and through the conversion of our leasehold into non-operated working interests in multiple Bakken, Three Forks and other oil shale wells. We believe our drilling participation, primarily on a heads-up basis proportionate to our working interest, will allow us to deliver high value with low cost. Voyager expects to deploy approximately $10 million to participate in oil shale wells in 2010 at an average completion cost of $4.5 million per well.
Voyager is also currently engaged in a top-leasing program in targeted areas of the Williston Basin. A top-lease is a lease acquired prior to and commencing immediately upon the expiration of the current lease. We believe this approach will allow us to access the most prolific areas of the Bakken oilfields. We continue to see this approach met with success given the rapidly expanding nature of the productive area of the play.
Voyager explores and produces oil and gas through a non-operated business model. We engage in the drilling process within operators’ drilling units that include our acreage. As a non-operator we rely on our operating partners to propose, permit and engage in the drilling process. Before a well is spud, the operator is required to provide all oil and gas interest owners in the designated well unit the opportunity to participate in the drilling costs and revenues of the well on a pro-rata basis. After the well is completed, our

Table of Contents
operating partners also transport, market and account for all production. It will be policy for Voyager to engage and participate on a heads-up basis in substantially all, if not all, wells proposed. This model provides us with diversification across operators and geologic areas. It also allows us to continue to add production at a low marginal cost and maintain general and administrative costs at minimal levels.
Operations
We plan to continue to structure our operations in a manner that minimizes overhead and relies on third-parties to supply experience and expertise necessary to exploit exploration opportunities. We will attempt to secure the highest possible working interests in the wells in which we invest while minimizing our general and administrative expenses. We intend to keep overhead and staff to a bare minimum and the majority of operational duties will be outsourced to consultants and independent contractors. We believe that the operational responsibilities of our company can be handled by our current officers, our working partnership with Hancock Enterprises and through consulting and independent contractor relationships. We believe that we will incur minimal general and administrative expenses, thus devoting substantially all of our capital to hydrocarbon investments.
Assets and Acreage Holdings
As of May 18, 2010 we currently control approximately 112,000 net acres in the following four primary prospect areas:
· 21,000 net acres targeting the Bakken formation in North Dakota and Montana;
· 640 net acres targeting the Red River formation based on 3-D seismic data in Montana;
· 57,000 net acres in our joint venture targeting the Tiger Ridge gas field in Blaine, Hill and Chouteau Counties of Montana; and
· 33,500 net acres in our joint venture targeting the Heath Shale formation in Musselshell, Petroleum, Garfield and Fergus Counties of Montana.
4,000 of the 21,000 net acres we currently control in the Bakken formation of North Dakota and Montana are under contract and we expect to close in July of 2010. The leases we control have a minimum term of three years and many have extensions effectively giving us control of lands for up to ten years.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial conditions and results of operations is based on the Company’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements required us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments, including those described below. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results and experiences may differ materially from these estimates.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in notes to our financial statements to be filed with the SEC on a Form 8-K/A within 71 days of the date that this initial report on Form 8-K, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and affect the more significant judgments and estimates that we used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
We have accounted for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718-10-55 (Prior authoritative literature: FASB Statement 123(R), Share-Based Payment). This statement requires us to record any expense associated with the fair value of stock-based compensation. We used the Black-Scholes option valuation model to calculate stock based compensation at the date of grant. Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
Full Cost Method
We follow the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas operations whereby all costs related to the exploration and development of oil and gas properties are initially capitalized into a single cost center (“full cost pool”). Such costs include land
10
Table of Contents
acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenses, carrying charges on non-producing properties, costs of drilling directly related to acquisitions, and exploration activities.
Proceeds from property sales will generally be credited to the full cost pool, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such a sale would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved reserves attributable to these costs. A significant alteration would typically involve a sale of 25% or more of the proved reserves related to a single full cost pool. There were no property sales for the three months ended April 4, 2010 and March 29, 2009.
Capitalized costs associated with impaired properties and capitalized cost related to properties having proved reserves, plus the estimated future development costs and asset retirement costs under FASB ASC 410-20-25 (Prior authoritative literature:, FASB Statement 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations) will be depleted and amortized on the unit-of-production method based on the estimated gross proved reserves as determined by independent petroleum engineers. The costs of unproved properties are withheld from the depletion base until such time as they are either developed or abandoned. When proved reserves are assigned or the property is considered to be impaired, the cost of the property or the amount of the impairment is added to costs subject to depletion calculations.
Capitalized costs of oil and gas properties (net of related deferred income taxes) may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10% per annum, of the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves plus the cost of unevaluated properties (adjusted for related income tax effects). Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, impairment is recognized. The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying 12-month average price of oil and natural gas to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of period-end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. Such present value of proved reserves’ future net cash flows excludes future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the Balance Sheet. Should this comparison indicate an excess carrying value, the excess is charged to earnings as an impairment expense. As of April 4, 2010, we had not realized any impairment of our properties.
Joint Ventures
The financial statements as of April 4, 2010 and March 29, 2009 include our accounts and our proportionate share of the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the joint ventures in which we are involved.
Results of Operations
Because Voyager had no operations during the first quarter of 2010 as a result of the Peerless Media transaction, there is no discussion of the Voyager’s results of operations. A discussion of the Voyager’s cash position resulting from its then existing royalty rights and other factors is discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company’s total cash resources, excluding short-term investments, as of April 4, 2010 were $18,210, compared to $16,775 as of January 3, 2010. The increase in cash balance is primarily attributable to the sale of available for sale securities.
Three Months Ended April 4, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 29, 2009
Net Cash Provided by (Used In) Operating Activities
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $(465) for the three months ended April 4, 2010 and $154 for the three months ended March 29, 2009. The net cash used in operating activities makes up a portion of the net loss of the Company during the quarter.
Net Cash Used In Investment Activities
Net cash provided by (used in) investment activities was $8,257 for the three months ended April 4, 2010 and $(59) for the three months ended March 29, 2009. Cash provided by investment activities is primarily attributable to the sale of available for sale debt securities.

Table of Contents
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(102) for the three months ended April 4, 2010 and $2,652 for the three months ended March 29, 2009. Net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to repayments under the operating line of credit.
Adequacy of Capital Resources
With the addition of equity capital achieved through the Merger, we believe we have sufficient capital to meet our drilling commitments and expected general and administrative expenses for the next twelve months, at a minimum. Nonetheless, any strategic acquisition of assets may require us to access the capital markets at some point in 2010. We may also choose to access the equity capital markets to fund accelerated or continued drilling at the discretion of management and depending on prevailing market conditions. We will evaluate any potential opportunities for acquisitions as they arise. Given our non-leveraged asset base and anticipated growing cash flows, we believe we are in a position to take advantage of any appropriately priced sales that may occur. However, there can be no assurance that any additional capital will be available to us on favorable terms or at all.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition or changes in financial condition.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) - Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.” ASU 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 that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASC 2010-09 was effective upon issuance. The adoption of this standard had no effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades.” ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in ASU 2010-13 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this standard will not have an effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, short-term municipal bonds, corporate preferred securities, certificates of deposit and ARS, including related put rights. Our main investment objectives are the preservation of investment capital and the maximization of after-tax returns on our investment portfolio. Consequently, we invest with only high-credit-quality issuers and limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative or investment purposes.
Our cash equivalents and restricted cash are not subject to significant interest rate risk due to the short maturities of these instruments. As of April 4, 2010, the carrying value of our cash equivalents and restricted cash approximated fair value. We have in the past and our investment strategy for the future is to obtain marketable debt securities (principally consisting of government securities, municipal bonds, corporate preferred securities and certificates of deposit) having a weighted average duration of one year or less. Consequently, such securities would not be subject to significant interest rate risk.
