Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On July 11, 2019, we determined that the following financial statements of our company should not be relied upon:
| ● | Unaudited financial statements included in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended May 31, 2017, filed on January 29, 2018 on SEDAR and on January 30, 2018 on EDGAR; |
| | |
| ● | Unaudited financial statements included in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended August 31, 2017, filed on January 29, 2018 on SEDAR and on January 30, 2018 on EDGAR; |
| | |
| ● | Unaudited financial statements included in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended November 30, 2017, filed on January 29, 2018 on SEDAR and on January 31, 2018 on EDGAR; |
| | |
| ● | Audited financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2018, filed on June 28, 2018 on EDGAR and SEDAR; |
| | |
| ● | Audited financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended February 28, 2018, filed on July 11, 2018 on EDGAR and on July 12, 2018 on SEDAR; |
| | |
| ● | Unaudited financial statements included in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended May 31, 2018, filed on July 16, 2018 on EDGAR and SEDAR; |
| | |
| ● | Unaudited financial statements included in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended August 31, 2018, filed on October 10, 2018 on EDGAR and SEDAR; and |
| | |
| ● | Unaudited financial statements included in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended November 30, 2018, filed on January 9, 2019 on EDGAR and SEDAR. |
Following consultation with our financial advisors and former independent registered public accounting firm, Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP, Chartered Financial Accountants (“DMCL”), we determined that we incorrectly reported that four companies, including Colony Energy, LLC, Black Dragon Energy, LLC, Rolling Rock Resources, LLC and City of Gold, LLC, which were acquired by our company between March 1 and May 31, 2017, were not “variable interest entities”, when they should have been reported as such.
In addition, certain shares issued for consulting fees and oil and gas property acquisitions were valued at private placement price instead of the quoted market value.
As a result of the revisions to our accounting treatment as discussed above, we anticipate filing amended quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and an amended annual report on Form 10-K for the periods affected by August 9, 2019.
Although our audit committee and board of directors did not discuss the matters disclosed in this current report on Form 8-K with our former independent registered public accounting firm, DMCL, our Chief Operating Officer has discussed these matters with DMCL.
