(b) Pro forma financial information.
On October 27, 2010, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Petrodorado Energy Ltd. (“Petrodorado”) with respect to the sale by the Company of its wholly-owned subsidiary PetroSouth Energy Corp. BVI, including the Company’s interest in the Talora Exploration Block but excluding the Company’s interest in the Buenavista Block, to Petrodorado for $1.5 million. Upon executing the letter agreement, Petrodorado advanced the entire $1.5 million purchase price to the Company. The Company was obligated to pay a finder’s fee related to the sale.
On December 1, 2010, the Company completed all the conditions stipulated to close the transaction.
At June 30, 2009, the Company owned a 6% participation interest in approximately 64,000 acres in the Carbonera Block located Northeast of Bogota, Colombia. The project was near the Venezuelan border in the Catatumbo Basin in Northeastern Colombia. On September 22, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Delavco Energy Colombia Inc. Sucursal Colombia pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 100% of its 6% non-operated participation interest in the Carbonera Block for $750,000. Closing of the agreement took place on October 2, 2009. The Company’s former chief financial officer and director is also a consultant of Delavco Energy Colombia Inc. The $750,000 of proceeds was accounted for as a reduction of Unproved Interest. As this transaction did not represent 25% of the Company’s reserve base in Colombia, the Company did not recognize any gain or loss on this transaction at that time.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information presented below illustrates the effect of the disposition of the Company’s interests in its wholly-owned subsidiary PetroSouth Energy Corp. BVI, including the Company’s interest in the Talora Exploration Block but excluding the Company’s interest in the Buenavista Block, and the Company’s 6% participation interest in the Carbonera Block (“Sold Assets”). The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2010 is based on the historical statements of the Company as of September 30, 2010, after giving effect to the disposition of the Sold Assets as if it had occurred on September 30, 2010. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, are based on the historical financial statements of the Company for such periods after giving effect to the disposition of the Sold Assets, as if it had occurred on July 1, 2009. The unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s 2010 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 15, 2010.
The preparation of the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is based on financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations would have been had the transactions occurred on the respective date assumed, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company’s future operating results. However, the pro forma adjustments reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflect estimates and assumptions that the Company’s management believes to be reasonable.
