Revenues |
|
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, Woodgate had limited revenues of gas sales in the amount of $3,845 and $4,420 and had limited income or cash flows from operations. The continuation of Woodgate as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders or its ability to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations. |
|
Earnings Per Share |
|
For the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012, the company recorded losses of $2,278,844 and $592,816, respectively. This resulted in Earnings Per Share of ($0.06) and ($0.02) for those respective year ends. The majority of these losses are attributable to operational expenses incurred by the subsidiaries of the Company. |
|
Litigation and other Contingencies |
|
Management has regular litigation reviews, including updates from corporate and outside counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. The Company accrues an undiscounted liability for those contingencies where the incurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the minimum of the range is accrued. The Company does not record liabilities when the likelihood that the liability has been incurred is probable but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or when the liability is believed to be only reasonably possible or remote. For purposes of our contingency disclosures, “significant” includes material matters as well as other matters which management believes should be disclosed. Woodgate Energy Corporation will continue to defend itself vigorously in these matters. Based on a consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances, the Company does not believe the ultimate outcome of any currently pending lawsuit against Woodgate Energy Corporation will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s operations, financial condition, or financial statements taken as a whole. |

On April 16, 2009, Noram Drilling Company filed an original complaint against E & P Co. International, LLC and E & P Co., LLC in the 37th District Court of Louisiana, arguing E & P Co., LLC was liable for breach of contract by E & P Co., LLC under the theory of single enterprise liability. The Company argues no such single enterprise liability exists as the contract is to be construed under Texas law. On January 16, 2013, the 37th District Court in the Parish of Caldwell, Louisiana, the court granted E & P Co., LLC’s Motion for Summary Judgment, holding the Company not to be a party to the drilling contract. The Court further denied NorAm’s Motion for Summary Judgment for damages. On December 11, 2013, the Court of Appeals of the Second Circuit of the State of Louisiana affirmed the trial court’s finding. |
|
At this time, the company is subject to no legal proceedings and the Company is unaware of any proceedings contemplated against it. |

Management’s judgment regarding the project’s capitalization of exploration well costs is based upon its current inability to estimate reserves. Currently, the project requires additional investment and approximately six months production history at substantially higher rates before an appropriate valuation of proved reserves may be made. The Company anticipates the following costs necessary to achieve proven reserve status of which E & P Co., LLC will be responsible for its interest accordingly: |
|
Description | | Cost | | | | | | | | | | |
Addition of new saltwater disposal well | | | 1,000,000 | | | | | | | | | | |
