The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the indicated periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |
In February 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining economic interests that it did not already own in the Production Sharing Contract (“PSC”) covering Oil Mining Leases 120 and 121 (“OMLs 120 and 121”) offshore Nigeria, which include the currently producing Oyo Field (the “Allied Assets”), from Allied (the “Allied Transaction”). Allied is a subsidiary of CEHL, the Company’s majority shareholder, and deemed to be under common control (transactions between subsidiaries of the same parent). Accordingly, the net assets acquired from Allied were recorded at their respective carrying values as of the acquisition date. The financial statements presented for all periods included herein are presented as though the transfer of the Allied assets had occurred at the beginning of the first period presented. | |
In June 2014, the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s unaudited financial statements included in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2014 contained errors. These errors were identified in the course of preparing recast historical financial information of the Company to account for the February 2014 acquisition of economic interests in OML 120/121 from Allied as a combination of businesses under common control. In July 2014, the Company restated its previously filed interim financial statements for the first quarter of 2014. The revised financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 include adjustments to reflect (i) an increase in crude oil inventory as of December 31, 2013 and a corresponding increase in production costs for the first quarter of 2014, (ii) an increase in operating costs due to the receipt of additional third-party vendor cost information from Allied and (iii) a reclassification of the adjustments to the net assets of Allied on the unaudited consolidated statement of cash flows. For further information about the restatement, see our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the period ended March 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on July 18, 2014. | |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | |
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance that changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations including enhanced disclosure requirements. Under the updated guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization´s operations and financial results. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. We will adopt this standards update, as required, beginning with the first quarter of 2015. The adoption of this standards update affects presentation only and, as such, is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. | |
In May 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The objective of the guidance is to establish principles for reporting information about the nature, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. The updated standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We will adopt this standards update, as required, beginning with the first quarter of 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements. | |
In June 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance around share-based compensation. The guidance was issued to clarify the accounting treatment for performance based stock awards. The update states that companies should not record compensation expense related to an award for which transfer to the employee is contingent on the company’s satisfaction of a performance target until it becomes probable that the performance target will be met. The update does not contain any new disclosure requirements and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We will adopt this standards update, as required, beginning with the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this standards update is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. | |

In February 2014, the Company completed the Allied Transaction thereby acquiring the Allied Assets. Pursuant to the terms of the Transfer Agreement among the Company, Allied and the other parties thereto, (“Transfer Agreement”), the Company, as partial consideration for the Allied Assets, paid $85.0 million in cash, issued 497,454,857 shares of the Company’s common stock and delivered a $50.0 million Convertible Subordinated Note (the “Convertible Subordinated Note”) of which $25.0 million was deemed advanced, with interest accruing per the terms of the Convertible Subordinated Note. | |||||
To fund the cash portion of the Allied Transaction and a portion of the anticipated capital expenditures for development of the Oyo Field, the Company also entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with the Public Investment Corporation (SOC) Limited, a state-owned company incorporated in the Republic of South Africa (“PIC”), for an aggregate cash investment of $270.0 million through a private placement of 376,884,422 shares of common stock (the “Private Placement”). The Share Purchase Agreement provided that the Private Placement would be completed in two installments. The first installment of $135.0 million (the “First Closing”) in exchange for 188,442,211 shares of the Company’s common stock was completed at the closing of the Allied Transaction. The second installment (the “Second Closing”) of $135.0 million in exchange for 188,442,211 shares of the Company’s common stock was completed in May 2014. | |||||
Following the Second Closing with the PIC, the Company paid to Allied the additional $85.0 million in cash due under the Transfer Agreement, and the remaining $25.0 million Convertible Subordinated Note was deemed advanced with interest accruing per the terms of the Convertible Subordinated Note. | |||||

The Allied Transaction is being accounted for as a transfer of entities under common control, whereby the net assets acquired are combined with the Company’s assets at their historical amounts. Since the cash and debt consideration exceeds the carrying cost of the assets acquired, no value was assigned to the shares issued. |

In November 2013, the Company achieved both its primary and secondary drilling objectives for the Oyo-7 well. The primary drilling objective was to establish production from the existing Pliocene reservoir. The secondary drilling objective was to confirm the presence of hydrocarbons in the deeper Miocene formation. Hydrocarbons were encountered in three intervals totaling approximately 65 feet, as interpreted by the logging-while-drilling (“LWD”) data. Management is making plans to further explore the Miocene formation in future wells. The Company’s suspended exploratory wells costs were $26.5 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, for the costs related to the Miocene exploratory drilling activities. |

As of June 30, 2014, Long-term notes payable – related party consists of $7.1 million outstanding under the Promissory Note owed to Allied and a $50.0 million Convertible Subordinated Note issued in connection with the Allied Transaction. | |
Promissory Note | |
The Company has a $25.0 million borrowing facility under a Promissory Note (the “Promissory Note”) with Allied. Interest accrues on the outstanding principal under the Promissory Note at a rate of the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2% per annum. The obligations under the Promissory Note have been guaranteed by the Company. In August 2014, the Promissory Note was amended to extend the maturity date by one year to July 2015, and to allow for the entire $25.0 million facility amount to be utilized for general corporate purposes. | |
Convertible Subordinated Note | |
As partial consideration in connection with the February 2014 closing of the Allied Transaction, the Company issued a $50.0 million Convertible Subordinated Note in favor of Allied. The principal of the Convertible Subordinated Note was deemed advanced in two equal $25.0 million tranches at each of the First Closing and the Second Closing of the Private Placement. Interest on the Convertible Subordinated Note accrues at a rate per annum of one-month LIBOR plus 5%, payable quarterly in cash until the maturity of the Convertible Subordinated Note five years from the closing of the Allied Transaction. At the election of the holder, the Convertible Subordinated Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.7164 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The Convertible Subordinated Note is subordinated to the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness and is subject to acceleration upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Subordinated Note). The Company may, at its option, prepay the note in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty. The note is subject to mandatory prepayment upon (i) the Company’s issuance of capital stock or incurrence of indebtedness, the proceeds of which the Company does not apply to repayment of senior indebtedness or (ii) any capital markets debt issuance to the extent the net proceeds of such issuance exceed $250.0 million. Allied may assign all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Convertible Subordinated Note to any person upon written notice to the Company. |

Basis of Presentation | ' |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the indicated periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |
In February 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining economic interests that it did not already own in the Production Sharing Contract (“PSC”) covering Oil Mining Leases 120 and 121 (“OMLs 120 and 121”) offshore Nigeria, which include the currently producing Oyo Field (the “Allied Assets”), from Allied (the “Allied Transaction”). Allied is a subsidiary of CEHL, the Company’s majority shareholder, and deemed to be under common control (transactions between subsidiaries of the same parent). Accordingly, the net assets acquired from Allied were recorded at their respective carrying values as of the acquisition date. The financial statements presented for all periods included herein are presented as though the transfer of the Allied assets had occurred at the beginning of the first period presented. | |
In June 2014, the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s unaudited financial statements included in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2014 contained errors. These errors were identified in the course of preparing recast historical financial information of the Company to account for the February 2014 acquisition of economic interests in OML 120/121 from Allied as a combination of businesses under common control. In July 2014, the Company restated its previously filed interim financial statements for the first quarter of 2014. The revised financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 include adjustments to reflect (i) an increase in crude oil inventory as of December 31, 2013 and a corresponding increase in production costs for the first quarter of 2014, (ii) an increase in operating costs due to the receipt of additional third-party vendor cost information from Allied and (iii) a reclassification of the adjustments to the net assets of Allied on the unaudited consolidated statement of cash flows. For further information about the restatement, see our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the period ended March 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on July 18, 2014. | |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | ' |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | |
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance that changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations including enhanced disclosure requirements. Under the updated guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization´s operations and financial results. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. We will adopt this standards update, as required, beginning with the first quarter of 2015. The adoption of this standards update affects presentation only and, as such, is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. | |
In May 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The objective of the guidance is to establish principles for reporting information about the nature, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. The updated standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We will adopt this standards update, as required, beginning with the first quarter of 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements. | |
In June 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance around share-based compensation. The guidance was issued to clarify the accounting treatment for performance based stock awards. The update states that companies should not record compensation expense related to an award for which transfer to the employee is contingent on the company’s satisfaction of a performance target until it becomes probable that the performance target will be met. The update does not contain any new disclosure requirements and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We will adopt this standards update, as required, beginning with the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this standards update is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. | |
