AUDITED

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc.
San Antonio, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc. as of October 31, 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from August 11, 2010 (inception) to October 31, 2010. Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc.’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant esti mates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc. as of October 31, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from August 11, 2010 (inception) to October 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Its current operations consist of contract drilling services; however there were no outstanding contracts as of October 31, 2010.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
This summary of significant accounting policies of Gulfmark Energy Group and subsidiaries is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These consolidated financial statements are the representation of the Company’s management who is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of these financial statements. The Company’s accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
Consolidation Policy
Investee companies in which the Company directly or indirectly owns more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities or those in which the Company has effective control over are accounted for under the consolidation method of accounting. Under this method, an Investee company’s balance sheet and results of operations are reflected within the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Estimates
Preparing the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on deposit, cash on hand, and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and purchased with original maturities of three months or less.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Basis for Recording Fixed Assets, Lives, and Depreciation Methods
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful lives for significant property and equipment categories are as follows:
Vehicles
3 to 5 years
Machinery and equipment
3 to 5 years
Buildings and improvements
5 to 15 years
Deferred Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carry forwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. As of October 31, 2010 there was no material deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities.
Asset Impairment
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment of assets to be held and used is determined by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by an amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of cost or carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. There were no assets found to be in need of impairment as of October 31, 2010.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and does not include the impact of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Potential common shares are not included in the computation of loss per share, if their effect is antidilutive. At October 31, 2010, the Company had no potential common shares, and only basic loss per share is reported for the period ended October 31, 2010.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable approximate fair value, unless otherwise stated, as of October 31, 2010. The carrying amount of long-term debt approximates market value due to the use of market interest rates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820. ASU 2010-06 amends ASC 820 to now require: (1) a reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements. In ad dition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements of existing disclosures. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company has complied with the additional disclosures required by this guidance upon its adoption.
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This guidance established a new hierarchy of GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Codification is the sole source for authoritative U.S. GAAP and supersedes all accounting standards in U.S. GAAP, except for those issued by the SEC. The guidance was effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value,” related to fair value measurement of liabilities. This update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more valuation techniques. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period beginning after issuance.
In April 2009, the FASB updated its guidance under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” related to estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s results of operations.
Also in April 2009, the FASB updated its guidance under ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” which requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance also requires those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. The guidance was effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s results of operations.
On December 31, 2008, the SEC published final rules and interpretations updating its oil and gas reporting requirements. Many of the revisions are updates to definitions in the existing oil and gas rules to make them consistent with the Petroleum Resource Management System, which is a widely accepted standard for the management of petroleum resources that was developed by several industry organizations. Key revisions include the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves, the use of new technology for determining reserves, permitting disclosure of probable and possible reserves, and changes to the pricing used to determine reserves based on a 12-month average price rather than a period end spot price. The average is to be calculated using the first day-of-the-month price for each of the 12 months that make up the reporting period. The new rules are effective for annual repor ts for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2009. Early adoption is not permitted.
In the opinion of management, these topics have no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Accordingly, the Company evaluated subsequent events through December 14, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued, and determined that there are not any other items to disclose.
