Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
JayHawk Energy, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Jayhawk Gas Transportation Company (together the “Company” or “JayHawk”) , are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, production and sale of natural gas, crude oil and natural gas liquids primarily from conventional reservoirs within North America. The Company incorporated in Colorado on April 5, 2004 as Bella Trading Company, Inc. During the third quarter ending June 30, 2007, the Company changed management and entered the oil and gas business, and ceased all activity in retail jewelry. On June 21, 2007, the Company changed its name to JayHawk Energy, Inc. Since then, the Company has devoted its efforts principally to the raising of capital, organizational infrastructure development, the acquisition of oil and gas properties and exploration activities. To date, the Company has acquired three properties, Uniontown in Kansas, Crosby in North Dakota, and Girard in Kansas. The Company also formed a wholly owned subsidiary to transport natural gas in Kansas called JayHawk Gas Transportation Corporation.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending September 30, 2014.
For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, JayHawk Gas Transportation Company, after elimination of the intercompany accounts and transactions.
Going Concern
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred annual operating losses since inception. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has limited financial resources with which to achieve its business objectives and obtain profitability and positive cash flows. As shown in the accompanying balance sheets and statements of operations, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $24,530,312 and net loss of $503,320 for the six months ended March 31, 2014, and as of that date the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $2,820,858. Achievement of the Company's objectives will be dependent upon the ability to obtain additional financing, to locate profitable energy properties and generate revenue from current and planned business operations, and to control costs. The Company plans to fund its future operations by joint venturing, obtaining additional financing from investors, and attaining additional commercial production. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve these objectives, therefore substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability of recorded assets nor the implications of associated bankruptcy costs should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Joint Venture Operations
In instances where the Company’s oil and gas activities are conducted jointly with others, the Company’s accounts reflect only its proportionate interest in such activities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2014
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. Significant areas requiring the use of management assumptions and estimates relate to asset impairments, asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation, income taxes and derivatives. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions which could have a material effect on the Company's reported financial position and results of operations.
Income or Loss Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed as net income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities.
The dilutive effect of convertible and outstanding securities at March 31, 2014 and 2013 would be as follows:
| | | | |
| | March 31, 2014 | | March 31, 2013 |
Stock options | | 4,000,000 | | 2,040,000 |
Convertible debt | | 34,028,675 | | 23,279,993 |
Warrants | | 5,833,113 | | 5,999,113 |
Total Possible Dilution | | 43,861,788 | | 31,319,106 |
At March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the effect of the Company's outstanding options and common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2013 financial statements in order to conform to the 2014 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net loss, total assets or accumulated deficit as previously reported.
New Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believe that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on its financial statements upon adoption.
NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, and reclamation bonds approximate fair value due to their limited time to maturity or ability to immediately convert them to cash in the normal course. The carrying values of convertible debentures is net of a discount and does not reflect fair value of similar instruments.

NOTE 7 - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
On April 23, 2013, the Company entered into a Partial Reset of Conversion Price agreement (the “Partial Reset”) with certain institutional investors (the “Investors”) who are holders of convertible debentures of the Company. Under the terms of the Partial Reset, the Investors and the Company agreed to the following terms:
Investors have the right to convert, into common stock of the Company, up to twenty five percent (25%) of the principal amount outstanding, as of April 12, 2013, of each Debenture held by each Investor, at a Conversion Price equal to $0.01 per share;
Each Investor shall convert up to 25% of the amount of the outstanding principal amount, as of April 12, 2013, of each Debenture (the “Conversion Amount”), provided that such conversion will not cause the Investor to own more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. If such conversion would result in an Investor owning more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock then each such Investor shall only convert so much of the Conversion Amount as would result in the Investor owning no more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. Each such Investor shall thereafter, as soon as practicably possible, continue to convert so much of the Conversion Amount as possible, without causing the Investor to beneficially own more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, until such time as each Investor has converted their full Conversion Amount;
The Maturity Dates of all outstanding Debentures shall be extended to March 31, 2014;

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2014
The Expiration Date of all of the remaining 2,000,000 outstanding share purchase warrants issued pursuant to the December 2009 and April 2010 Transactions shall be extended to July 21, 2014; and
The Expiration Date of all of the remaining 2,833,113 outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the October 2010 Transaction, shall be extended to January 26, 2015.
On or about May 3, 2013, three (3) investors converted $90,313 in convertible debentures at $0.01 per share. Pursuant to these conversions, the Company issued 9,031,400 shares of its common stock. The Company also issued 7,085,263 shares of stock at $0.01 per share in payment of interest owed pursuant to the debentures.
On November 11, 2013, an investor converted $35,000 in convertible debentures at $0.01 per share. Pursuant to this conversion, the Company issued 3,500,000 shares of common stock. The transaction resulted in a gain on conversion of $15,336.
NOTE 8 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
The debentures discussed in Note 7 contain anti-dilution provisions which call for the debt conversion and warrant exercise prices to be reduced based on future issues of debt or equity with more favorable provisions. Management has determined that these provisions cause the conversion options and warrants to require derivative liability accounting. As such, management has valued them at fair value at the date of issuance and bi-furcated the option from the host instruments.
The debentures are convertible at any time after the original issue date into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock, determined by dividing the amount to be converted by conversion prices of $0.05 and $0.01 per share at March 31, 2014. Additionally common share purchase warrants were issued with an expiration date 42 months from the original issue date and permit the holders two exercisable options. The warrants were exercisable by purchase of the Company’s common stock for cash, or alternatively, in a cashless exercise, the number of shares being determined in accordance with a predetermined formula based on the Company’s then current stock price.
Conversion option derivative
For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, respectively, the fair value of conversion options was estimated at the periods end and amendment date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions and the associated revaluation range of assumptions on designated event dates, including end of quarter revaluations:
| | | | | | |
| | | | March 31, 2014 | | March 31, 2013 |
Risk-free interest rate | | | | 0.07% | | .07% to 0.11% |
Expected term | | | | .25 to .50 years | | .25 years |
Expected volatility | | | | 301.7% to 326.8% | | 340.9% to 375.2% |
Fair value of conversion option derivative units | | | | $.002 to $0.01 | | $ 0.0245 |

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2014
Corporation Commission and the State of North Dakota. The Company's engineers have estimated the cost, in today's dollars, to comply with these regulations. These estimates have been projected out to the anticipated retirement date 7 to 15 years in the future, at an assumed inflation rate of 1.5 percent. The anticipated future cost of remediation efforts in North Dakota and Kansas is $486,403. These amounts were discounted back at an assumed interest rate of 10 percent, to arrive at a net present value of the obligation. The amount charged to accretion expense and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, was computed to be $3,651 and $7,302, and $4,687 and $9,373,respectively.

NOTE 12 - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company’s board of directors approved a stock and option plan on August 11, 2009 (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to provide employees and consultants of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries with an increased incentive to make significant and extraordinary contributions to the long-term performance and growth of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, to join the interests of employees and consultants with the interests of the shareholders of the Corporation, and to facilitate attracting and retaining employees and consultants of exceptional ability. The total number of shares available for grant under the terms of the Plan is 4,000,000. The number of shares subject to the Plan and any outstanding awards will be adjusted appropriately by the Board of Directors if the Company’s common stock is affected through a reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, restructuring, reclassification dividend (other than quarterly cash dividends) or other distribution, stock split, spin-off or sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets.
On October 10, 2013, the Board of Directors rescinded, from various officers and directors, 2,040,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The rescinded options had a strike price of $0.20 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Also on October 10, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized the grant, to various officers and directors, of 4,000,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The options have a strike price of $0.01 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and vest over 9 months.

NOTE 13 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On December 1, 2011, the Company entered into a four year lease with Marlin Property Management, LLC, an entity owned by the spouse of the Company's former President/CEO and current chairman of the board of directors. Under the terms of the lease the Company is required to pay $2,500 per month for office space in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, $7,500 and $7,500, and $15,000 and $15,000, respectively, were due under the terms of the lease. The balance due to the related party including common area expenses as of March 31, 2014 was $31,741.
NOTE 14 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On December 1, 2011, the Company entered into an office space lease, with a term of four years, at the fixed monthly rental amount of $2,500. Accordingly, the Company's commitment to make these lease payments for each successive year is $30,000.
The Company is obligated to pay royalties to holders of oil and natural gas interests in both North Dakota and Kansas operations. The Company also is obligated to pay working interest holders a pro-rata portion of revenue in oil operations net of shared operating expenses. The amounts are based on monthly oil and natural gas sales and are charged monthly net of oil and gas revenue and recognized as "Due to royalty and working interest holders" on the Company's balance sheet.
On August 1, 2013, the North Dakota Industrial Commission (“NDIC”) submitted an administrative complaint to the State of North Dakota related to plugging and remediation of the Company’s Jenks 1 and Knudsen 1 wells in Crosby, ND. The administrative complaintalleged the Company violated certain portions of the North Dakota Century Code and requested administrative relief against Jayhawk Energy, Inc. for violation of sections of the North Dakota Administrative Code governing the oil and gas industry.
On or about August 12, 2013, the Company responded to the administrative complaint and entered into settlement negotiations with the NDIC. As a good faith effort, the Company began plugging the Knudsen 1 well on or about December 20, 2013. The work required to plug the Knudsen 1 well was completed on or about January, 01, 2014. The range of associated penalties as proposed by the NDIC was $100,000 to $525,000 for failure to comply (See Note 15 Subsequent Events).
As September 30, 2013, the Company accrued $330,000 as an estimate of total liability related to the Jenks and Knudsen reclamation. The remaining balance at March 31, 2014 is $275,754 and is classified as “Accrual for North Dakota reclamation complaint”. The Company has paid $54,246 through March 31, 2014 toward the estimated total liability.
On February 18, 2014, the Company entered into a Consent Agreement with the State of North Dakota whereby the Company is required to finish reclamation work, by June 30, 2014, on the two waste water storage pits adjacent to the Jenks 1 and Knudsen 1 wells respectively. Further, the Consent Agreement allows that the Company must plug the “production zone” of the Jenks 1 well and then may apply for a permit to convert the Jenks 1 well to a salt water disposal well. As a part of the Consent Agreement the Company agreed to pay a civil penalty of no less than $105,000, consisting of $25,000 due and payable upon execution of the Consent Agreement and a $16,000 installment per month for four successive months thereafter. Should the Company fail to comply with the terms of the Consent Agreement, the Company is subject to penalties of up to an additional $420,000 (over and above the $105,000 penalty agreed to in the Consent Agreement).
NOTE 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 18, 2014, the Company entered into a Farmout Agreement (“Agreement”) with Vast Petroleum Corporation (“Vast” or “Vast Petroleum”) covering the Company’s natural gas pipeline and adjacent natural gas wells in Bourbon and Crawford Counties, Kansas.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Vast shall reinstate production of natural gas, from one or more of the leases, within one year after the execution of the Agreement. Once actual production of natural gas is reinstated from one or more leases, Vast shall have earned 50% interest in the Farmout Area, subject to certain terms and conditions as set forth in the Agreement. Vast also agrees to evaluate, prospect and study the leases to determine whether oil exists in commercially viable quantities and, if so, to drill test wells upon the

leases until the sooner of (1) the completion of twenty (20) test wells or (2) Vast discovers that it would be imprudent to drill any additional wells upon the leases.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Vast shall be assigned all operational rights with respect to the leases and shall operate the leases pursuant to the terms of the Joint Operating Agreement (Vast shall incur all costs associated with the performance of the development requirements as set forth in the Agreement). Once development requirements have been performed by Vast, all parties to the Agreement will be responsible for their respective share of all development and operating expenses. All revenue attributable to the working interest in the leases generated from the sale of oil or gas produced from the leases shall be distributed as forth in the Agreement.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and supplemental information presented in our Annual Report for the period ending September 30, 2013, on Form 10-K, and the Forms 8-K and Forms 10-Q issued in the periods subsequent to September 30, 2013. Certain sections of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include forward-looking statements concerning trends or events potentially affecting our business. These statements typically contain words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "plans," "probable," "should," "could," "would," or similar words indicating that future outcomes are uncertain. In accordance with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, these statements are accompanied by cautionary language identifying important factors, though not all such factors, which could cause future outcomes to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Oil and Gas Properties
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, a lack of access to capital inhibited the Company’s ability to economically operate its Crosby oil properties. Cost of maintenance and repairs exceeded available cash and consequently, the Company shut-in production for a significant portion of the quarter. Coupled with adverse weather conditions in the area which caused limited access to the field, the Company was unable to generate sufficient capital to maintain operations during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, and consequently the wells were shut-in.
The Company has also subsequently entered into a Farmout Agreement with Vast Petroleum Corporation on Jayhawk’s Kansas natural gas asset and pipeline. Vast provides significant operational and technical expertise in oil and gas operations in Southeast Kansas and will assess the economic viability of resuming production in the region. An Area of Mutual Interest provision within the Farmout Agreement also establishes a formal relationship between the two companies for future exploration and development projects in Bourbon and Crawford Counties, Kansas, whereby each party agrees to provide the other the option to participate under the same terms of the Farmout Agreement.
Revenues –For the three months ending March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenues reported as JayHawk's net working interest were $70,027 and $111,061 respectively.

The Company encountered mechanical issues on its Landstrom well which limited production to 204 barrels from that site for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Kearney well produced 42 out of 90 available days, however lack of accessibility to its tanks due to flooded road conditions yielded no oil sales from the well during the quarter. The Erickson well also encountered mechanical issues during the quarter and did not produce during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The Schutz well produced 82 days out of 90 available for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and encountered no appreciable mechanical issues.
Gas Revenues – There was no gas production during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The Company entered into a Farmout agreement on April 18, 2014 with Vast Petroleum Inc. Vast will assume operational responsibility of Jayhawk Gas Transport’s pipeline and evaluate the economic viability of resuming natural gas production in the adjacent acreage.
Production and Operating Expenses (Income) –Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $264,873 and $177,427 respectively. The expenses are segregated as follows:

Legal fees associated with preparation of the Farmout Agreement with Vast Petroleum also contributed to the increased expense for the quarter when compared to the prior year.
All other general and administrative expense of $14,953 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which was an increase of $4,718 from the same period ending March 31, 2013. Insurance expense increased $2,756 over the prior year due to rise in annual premium costs.

Cash Flows, Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2014, current assets totaled $28,907, consisting of cash, $3,491 and accounts receivable of $25,416. At the same time the Company's current liabilities were $2,849,765, of which $1,038,687 are debentures with maturity of less than one year. Consequently, management has classified the debentures as current liabilities. This working capital shortage of $2,820,858 impairs the Company's ability to continue operating as a going concern. Future success and independence will be dependent upon the Company's ability to obtain sufficient additional financing and upon achieving profitable future operations. At this time there is no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve these objectives. Management is aggressively seeking joint venture partners, merger, acquisition or other means of financing to grow the Company.
