The last paragraph says it all.. DILUTION!!!
Additional funding will be required to complete our 2011 operations program and to complete the merger with American Exploration. We anticipate that we will receive this funding from a variety of methods, including private placements of equity and/or debt instruments, entering into joint venture transactions with third parties, mezzanine financing, and cash flows from any successful wells.
We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) oil and gas operating properties; (ii) possible drilling initiatives on current properties and future properties; and (iii) future property acquisitions. We may finance these expenses, and any continuing long-term operating expenses, through the methods noted above, namely, private placements of equity and/or debt instruments, entering into joint venture transactions with third parties, mezzanine financing and cash flows from any successful wells.
Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.
