PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In January 2017, Texas South Energy, Inc. formed Texas South Operating Company, Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. It was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Texas on January 11, 2017.
Texas South Energy, Inc. and Texas South Operating Company, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”) provide consolidated financial statements effective with the March 31, 2017 filing. The consolidated financial statements reflect our accounts after elimination of all significant intercompany transactions and balances.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in all material respects in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2016 and the transition report for the two months ended December 31, 2016.
Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended October 31, 2016, which are included in the Company’s annual report for the year ended October 31, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”) and for the Transition Report filed on Form 10-K for the two months ended December 31, 2016. In management’s opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Management believes that the disclosures made in these unaudited financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading. Interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.
There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report or the December 31, 2016 Transition Report.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2017
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Texas South Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada on March 15, 2010. The Company is engaged in the oil and gas business, generating or acquiring oil and gas projects, drilling and operating the wells and producing the oil and gas reserves.
On January 11, 2017, pursuant to the laws of the State of Texas, the Company formed Texas South Operating Company, Inc.as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Texas South Energy, Inc. and Texas South Operating Company, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”) now file consolidated financial statements effective with the March 31, 2017 filing. The consolidated financial statements reflect our accounts after elimination of all significant intercompany transactions and balances.
While the Company had previously established a fiscal year end of October 31, on March 3, 2017 the Company adopted a year end of December 31. A transition 10-K was filed for the period November 2016 through December 2016 to report the change in our year end.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in all material respects in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2016 and the transition report for November 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016. The exception being that the 2016 financial statements were not consolidated with Texas South Operating Company, Inc. since the Company had not yet been organized.
Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended October 31, 2016, which are included in the Company’s annual report for the year ended October 31, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”) and the transition report for the period of November 1 through December 31, 2016. In management’s opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Management believes that the disclosures made in these unaudited consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading. Interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.
There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report or the transition report for the two months ended December 31, 2016.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While management believes that such estimates are reasonable when considered in conjunction with the financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
| F-6 |
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company has no potential dilutive instruments and accordingly basic loss and diluted loss per share are the same.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued its final standard on revenue from contracts with customers. The standard, issued as Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09:Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” ASU 2014-09 becomes effective for reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted for reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. This new standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Because the Company currently has such low revenues, the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update for “Business Combinations,” which requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. We adopted this new guidance prospectively in the first quarter of 2016.
Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after September 30, 2017 are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Currently, the Company does not have sufficient cash, nor does it have operations or a source of revenue sufficient to cover its operational costs in order to allow it to continue as a going concern. The Company has accumulated losses as of September 30, 2017 of $12,055,588. The Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital through the sale of its existing projects and/or the best-efforts placement of its equity and/or debt securities in order to implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in either situation in order to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
NOTE 4 - OIL & GAS PROPERTIES
In January 2014, the Company entered into a contract for sale with the owner of mineral interests in 86.69 acres in Lavaca County, Texas (the “Acreage”) pursuant to which the Company acquired a 37.5% interest in the Acreage’s mineral rights, including the oil and gas rights (the “Acquired Interest”). In exchange for the Acquired Interest, the Company paid the seller $270,000 in cash and issued the seller 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $100,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company earned revenues of $6,664 associated with these interests. In June 2016, the Company entered into a contract for sale with James M. Askew, an affiliate, to sell its mineral interests in 86.69 acres in Lavaca County, Texas in which the Company owns a 37.5% interest in the Acreage’s mineral rights, in consideration of Mr. Askew, former chief executive officer and sole director, forgiving $170,000 of indebtedness owed to him. The Company recorded impairment expense of $200,000 associated with these interests.
In March 2014, the Company entered into a farmout letter agreement with GulfSlope Energy, Inc. (“GulfSlope”), relating to certain prospects located within 2.2 million acres of 3D seismic licensed and interpreted by GulfSlope. At the time the farmout agreement was entered into, the Company’s chief executive officer and sole director, Mr. Askew, was also a director of GulfSlope. Mr. Askew resigned as a director of GulfSlope effective March 27, 2014. Under the terms of the farmout letter agreement, as amended in September 2015, the Company acquired contractual rights to a 20% working interest in six prospects for aggregate consideration of $10,000,000. In accordance with the agreement, the Company has paid its proportionate share of the net rental costs related to the prospects. GulfSlope is the operator of record. The mineral interests are unproved as of September 30, 2017.
| F-7 |
In May 2016, the Company entered into a letter agreement with GulfSlope and paid $400,000 for the right to enter into mutually agreeable future definitive agreements to provide for the participation by the Company in drilling one well on Vermilion Area, South Addition Block 378 (“Canoe Prospect”) and one well on Vermilion Area South Addition Block 375 (“Selectron Prospect”). In June 2016, EnerGulf Resources Inc. (“EnerGulf”) paid the Company $400,000 to participate in the Canoe Prospect and the Selectron Prospect. At this time it is not anticipated that the Company will be able to commence operations on either of these tracts prior to the end of 2017 as negotiations with GulfSlope to extend the expiration of the farmout have been unsuccessful to date. In August 2017, the Company joined GulfSlope to bid on Ship Shoal Block 351 in the Gulf of Mexico. The Company paid $26,400 in August 2017 and an additional $140,589 in October 2017 to acquire a 20% Working Interest in that block and in Ship Shoal Block 336, which are collectively referred to as the Tau Prospect. Subsequently the Company has agreed to acquire from GulfSlope a 20% Working Interest in the Quark Prospect located on Eugene Island Block 397 and Green Canyon Block 4. In October 2017 the Company paid $100,000 to GulfSlope and will remit an additional $229,062 on various dates on or before April 1, 2018 for the interest.
In January 2017, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Sydson Energy, Inc. (“Sydson Energy”) and Sydson Resources, L.P. (“Sydson Resources” and collectively with Sydson Energy, “Sydson”), where Sydson assigned to us certain onshore oil and gas assets and interests and certain tangible assets and additionally, certain employees and a consultant of Sydson have agreed to become employees and a consultant of the Company. Sydson is a private oil and gas company with land operations in Texas and Louisiana that has been in business since 1982. The oil and gas assets include the following:
| ● | In the Bayou Bouillon Field, St. Martin and Iberville Parishes, Louisiana, we were to acquire a 37.5% working interest in the Sugarberry South Project comprising 420 acres. However, Texas South was unable to obtain sufficient capital to fulfill certain requirements of the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Thyssen Petroleum for the Sugarberry South project related to earning additional acreage rights beyond the Sugarberry No. 6 well. The agreement has now been terminated except for Texas South’s rights to a 50% working interest in the Sugarberry No. 6 well. The Company is in discussion with Thyssen Petroleum on other farmout activity related to deeper zones at Bayou Bouillon. |
| ● | In Texas, we acquired a 50% working interest in the undrilled acreage above 4,500’ in the West Tuleta Field, Bee County, Texas comprised of approximately 1,800 gross acres and 900 net acres with a net revenue interest of approximately 75%. The primary drilling objectives are the Vicksburg and Hockley sands which are structurally high on this acreage to historic downdip production from these sands totaling over 500,000 BO. |
| ● | In the adjacent Ray Field, also in Bee County, Texas, we acquired a 50% working interest in the undrilled, acreage on the Walton, Campbell, and Ray leases comprising approximately 75 gross acres with a net revenue interest of approximately 75%. The primary drilling objectives on this acreage are also the Vicksburg and Hockley sands updip to prior production, also above 3,700’. |
| ● | In other areas of Southeast Texas, we acquired an interest in a proprietary 85 square mile 3-D seismic survey targeting Lower Wilcox Sands at approximately 10,000’. There are eight currently defined and mapped prospects in which we intend to acquire leases that are apparent on the seismic data and match the geologic setting of three existing Lower Wilcox fields within the boundaries of the survey. |
| ● | Northwest of that survey, we intend to acquire leases covering approximately 1,000 acres for horizontal projects above 6,000’ in the Austin Chalk and Buda Lime formation. These projects are adjacent to substantial prior production and contain both conventional and unconventional oil targets. |
| F-8 |
In connection with the asset acquisition, certain officers and employees of Sydson have become officers, a consultant and employees of the Company, including Michael J. Mayell as chief executive officer, James L. Gunderson as manager of land, Robert F. Goldstein as a geological consultant, and Lecia Alexander as controller. Certain other non-executive employees and consultants of Sydson became at-will employees of the Company. John B. Connally III joined our board as chairman.
In connection with the asset acquisition, the Company acquired a variety of proprietary seismic data, computer equipment, furniture and fixtures and other office equipment.
The consideration payable by the Company to Sydson and affiliates was (i) 100 million shares of Company common stock to Michael J. Mayell valued at $845,000 and (ii) $250,000 through a promissory note originally due March 5, 2017, and was amended to January 1, 2019.
In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company agreed to pay $1,250,000 of Sydson’s future development costs attributable to its retained working interests in the oil and gas prospects conveyed to the Company and carried interests to casing point for Sydson’s working interests on the first well in each of the West Tuleta prospect, Ray Field prospect and the Wilinda prospect.

Forward Looking Statements
This report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of these provisions, including any projections of earnings, revenues, or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies, and objectives of management for future operation; any statements concerning proposed new products, services, or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; statements of belief; and any statement of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Such forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
Beginning in September 2013, we changed our business plan to an oil and gas company focused primarily on properties in the Gulf Coast Region. We plan to acquire and manage working and non-working interests in oil and gas projects and properties.
Our business is subject to multiple factors effecting the production of oil and gas, including, but not limited to: market prices; national and international economic conditions; import and export quotas; availability of drilling rigs, casing, pipe, and other equipment and supplies; availability of and proximity to pipelines and other transportation facilities; the supply and price of competitive fuels; and the regulation of prices, production, transportation, and marketing by domestic and foreign governmental authorities. Additionally, we may not have control over whether the owner or operator of the lease will elect to explore for oil and gas on such properties, or to develop them following discoveries that may occur. Each of these factors may affect the rate at which oil and gas are produced, if ever, on properties in which we or may have an interest.
Our Current Mineral Interests
In January 2017, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Sydson Energy, Inc. (“Sydson Energy”) and Sydson Resources, L.P. (“Sydson Resources” and collectively with Sydson Energy, “Sydson”), where Sydson assigned to us certain onshore oil and gas assets and interests and certain tangible assets. The Company recorded approximately $1,000,000 of leasehold interests in connection with this acquisition. See note 4 (“Oil and Gas Properties”) for additional information regarding the acquisition and other mineral interests.
In March 2014, we entered into a farmout letter agreement with GulfSlope, relating to certain prospects GulfSlope bid on at the Central Gulf of Mexico Lease Sale 231, located within 2.2 million acres of 3-D seismic licensed and interpreted by GulfSlope. Under the terms of the farmout letter agreement as amended in September 2015, we acquired contractual rights to a 20% Working Interest in six deep sub-salt or side-salt prospects for $10,000,000. We have paid our proportionate share of the net rental costs related to the prospects. GulfSlope is the operator of record on the prospects.
In May 2016, the Company entered into a letter agreement with GulfSlope and paid $400,000 to GulfSlope for a Farm-in of 100% of the Working Interest down to 5000’ on Vermilion Area, South Addition Block 378 (“Canoe Prospect”) and on Vermilion Area South Addition Block 375 (“Selectron Prospect”). In June 2016, EnerGulf Resources Inc. (“EnerGulf”) paid the Company $400,000 to participate for a 16.8% Working Interest in the Canoe Prospect and the Selectron Prospect. At this time it is not anticipated that the Company will be able to commence operations on either of these tracts prior to the end of 2017 as negotiations with GulfSlope to extend the expiration of the farmout have been unsuccessful to date. In August 2017, the Company joined GulfSlope to bid on Ship Shoal Block 351 in the Gulf of Mexico. The Company paid $26,400 in August 2017 and an additional $140,589 in October 2017 to acquire a 20% Working Interest in that block and in Ship Shoal Block 336, which are collectively referred to as the Tau Prospect. Subsequently the Company has agreed to acquire from GulfSlope a 20% Working Interest in the Quark Prospect located on Eugene Island Block 397 and Green Canyon Block 4. In October 2017 the Company paid $100,000 to GulfSlope and will remit an additional $229,062 on various dates on or before April 1, 2018 for the interest.

Business and Acquisition Strategy
Our primary business strategy includes acquiring both operating and non-operating working interests in oil and gas properties throughout the Gulf Coast Region of Louisiana and Texas, including offshore prospects. We will consider acquisitions that serve as a platform for complementary operations. In January 2017, the Company acquired assets from Sydson Energy, Inc. and Sydson Resources.
The cost of implementing the forgoing programs will depend on what oil and gas interests are identified and available on terms acceptable to us. Even if we identify oil and gas interests that are available, the cost of pursuing and acquiring them could be significant. Our ability to pursue any such opportunities will be dependent on our ability to obtain financings through private equity, debt financings or agreements with joint venture partners. We can provide no assurance that we have the necessary cash available or will be able to successfully obtain the necessary financing or joint venture partners to pursue such opportunities. We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses in future periods. We have relied primarily upon the sale of our equity securities and related party loans to fund operations to this point in time.
On September 13, 2017 the Company announced that Texas South Energy, Inc. and GulfSlope Energy, Inc. have jointly executed an exclusive letter of intent (LOI) with a large international oil and gas company (the “Partner”) to jointly drill and develop the Farmors oil and gas prospects located offshore Gulf of Mexico. The purpose of the LOI is to facilitate further discussions between the parties on an exclusive basis with respect to the negotiation of the contemplated transaction and is a statement of the present intent of the parties to pursue the contemplated transaction in good faith. The LOI is subject to a number of conditions including completion of additional due diligence, preparation and execution of definitive agreements, and board approvals. The LOI is not binding and there is no certainty that the above mentioned negotiations will mature into any binding agreement between the parties. The final commercial terms in a binding agreement, if ultimately executed, may not be as set forth in the LOI. The principal commercial terms of the farmout are highlighted as follows:
| ● | Commitment by Partner to drill a minimum of three exploratory wells with the option to participate in additional three-well phases on the same basis; |
| ● | The Partner will earn a 75% working interest in each prospect by (i) paying 90% of the exploratory costs and (ii) making a cash payment of $1.5 million to be split between the Farmors on a 73% / 27% basis; |
| ● | GulfSlope will be the initial Operator of Record and will retain a 20% working interest for the subsalt prospects included in the first phase; |
| ● | Texas South will retain a 5% working interest for the subsalt prospects included in the first phase; |
| ● | The Partner and Farmors will agree to an Area of Mutual Interest; |
| ● | Upon achieving certain milestones, the Partner will have the right to purchase up to 20% of the common stock in each of the Farmors; and |
| ● | Provision for exclusive negotiations between the Partner and Farmors that now expires November 30, 2017, or such later time as they mutually agree. |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2017, we had a cash balance of $5,866 and a working capital deficit of $1,175,921. Our working capital deficit includes $996,387 due to related parties including our management. Our accumulated deficit from inception (March 15, 2010) to September 30, 2017 was $12,055,588. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our net loss of $3,021,295 was mostly funded by proceeds raised from equity financings and loans from related parties. Consulting and legal expenses of $884,635 are included in the net loss, however shares of stock were issued in connection with these services, not cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our cash position decreased by $319,223 as a result of the partial acquisition of the Bayou Bouillon property, rental payments on the offshore leases and increased general and administrative expenses.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we issued 261,050,000 shares of common stock, of which 26,000,000 shares were issued for cash in the amount of $520,000, 112,550,000 shares were issued for services and 22,500,000 shares were issued to convert $450,000 of a note payable. A total of 100,000,000 shares were issued as part of the consideration paid for the Sydson asset acquisition.
| 3 |
We will need additional financing to carry out our business plan. Specifically, we will need cash to fund our obligations with respect to funding our farmout obligations under the offshore LOI and funding our contingent liabilities to Sydson once drilling begins on the properties acquired. Obtaining additional financing will be subject to a number of factors including market conditions, investor acceptance of our business plan, and other conditions outside of our control. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of additional financing unattractive or unavailable to us. If we cannot raise additional funds, we will not be able to carry out our business plans and may cease operations.
Results of Operations for the Three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the Three months ended September 30, 2016
We earned revenue of $0 and $486 during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Included in “Other income” are royalty payments received during the quarter ended September 30, 2017.

Interest expense was $245,553 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 and $58,601 during the three months ended September 30, 2017.
We had a net loss of $748,185 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a net loss of $446,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in the net loss was primarily due to the general and administrative expenses related to the new employees and office expenses incurred beginning January 4, 2017.
The basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $(0.00).
Results of Operations for the Nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the Nine months ended September 30, 2016
We earned revenue of $0 and $7,150 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Included in “Other income” is the write off of the shareholder note payable for $42,324 during the quarter ended March 31, 2017. General and administrative expenses were $2,905,456 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, of which $884,635 were non-cash expenses, compared to the total general and administrative expenses of $776,370 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

During 2016 the Company recorded interest expense of $200,000 for shares of stock issued related to a note agreement. That interest expense transaction did not occur in 2017, thus the decrease in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
We had a net loss of $3,021,295 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a net loss of $1,524,114 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in the net loss of $1,497,181 was primarily due to issuance of stock for consulting and legal services totaling $884,635, the payroll and other office expenses the Company incurred beginning January 4, 2017, related to the new employees and office space, and the legal and accounting fees related to the asset acquisition.
The basic and diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $(0.00).
In February 2016, the Company sold 5,000,000 shares of GulfSlope common stock with a cost value of $268,000 for cash proceeds of $50,000 and recorded a realized loss of $218,000.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer (who also serves as our principal financial officer) of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer (who also serves as our principal financial officer) concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our principal executive officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting.
