Definitely worth a read.... I've thought of management here as 'top notch' due to their prior experience.. This is one of the major reasons among others why I presented this as a Spotlight Pick.
DD this, I see quite a bit in this filing that I find appealing now. I wouldn't call below .09c a steal, but I'm looking down the road into next year for sure.

This also looks like a great bottom play from here!

Strategic American Oil Reports Third Quarter 2011 Financial Results
Strategic Amer Oil (OTCBB:SGCA)
Historical Stock Chart

1 Month : June 2011 to July 2011

Strategic American Oil Corp. (OTCBB:SGCA) today announced results for the third quarter of 2011.

Revenue and Production

Revenue for the third quarter totaled $1.26 million as compared with $0.12 million for the third quarter of 2010. Production volumes in the third quarter were 12.3 MBbls of oil and 13.8 MMcf of natural gas, or 14.5 MBoe. This compares with 1.6 MBbls of oil and 3.5 MMcf of natural gas, or 2.2 MBoe for the third quarter of 2010. In the third quarter of 2011, the average sales price per barrel of oil was $98.03 and $4.03 per MMBtu for natural gas, as compared with $66.67 per barrel and $4.99 per MMBtu, respectively for the third quarter of 2010. The primary reason behind the increase in revenue is the additional production from the newly acquired Galveston Bay Energy, LLC ("GBE"). Oil prices increased 47% and gas prices decreased 19% from 2010 levels. During 2011, oil accounted for 84% of the production volumes and 95% of the revenue.

Costs and Expenses

Total lease operating expense for the third quarter totaled $0.65 million versus $0.11 million for the third quarter of 2010. The $0.55 million increase reflects the newly acquired assets of GBE. Cash G&A expense totaled $0.61 million for the third quarter of 2011 versus $1.09 million for the third quarter of 2010. The $0.48 million decrease reflects a continued focus on cost controls while still growing production.

Earnings

Net loss totaled $8.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 and $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. Net loss per share, both basic and fully diluted, for the quarter was $0.05, based on 162.6 million weighted average shares outstanding as compared with a loss of $0.05 per share in the third quarter of 2010 with 49.5 million weighted average shares outstanding. The increased outstanding common shares are associated with the private placement of common stock completed to fund the acquisition of GBE.

Liquidity and Capital Plans

Liquidity

As of the end of the quarter, we had $4.7 million in available cash, which included $0.55 million in cash on hand and $4.2 million in available credit from our $5 million bank line. The revolving bank line is partially drawn at $0.86 million with a maturity of March of 2012. We also had $6.7 million in restricted cash as collateral for P&A bonds.

2011 Operational Update

During the remainder of 2011, we anticipate continuing our plan to increase Galveston Bay production through well workovers, recompletions, and infrastructure improvements. Additionally, we expect to begin our first waterflood in Illinois in the coming weeks, recompletion of Welder No. 5 in late summer, and drilling plans have already commenced to exploit 3-D seismic targets in Galveston Bay. Total capital anticipated for remainder of calendar 2011 on currently-owned properties will be approximately $2 million.

Jeremy G. Driver, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, "Since completing our recent acquisition we are now in a better financial position and anticipate implementing our aggressive growth strategy which will include further acquisitions, increased production from existing fields, new waterflood projects, a more extensive drilling program and a new investor awareness campaign."

Mr. Driver went on to say, "My family and I have made significant investments into Strategic American Oil with a strong belief in the opportunity for continued growth. We are committed to helping the company achieve its objectives and deliver stellar returns for all shareholders."

Consider SGCA a really good OIL pick below $5 dollars, and definitely below buck.

Where can you find management like this [read below] for .15cents a share?

Calling this a very low risk to the down side, with the potential for a substantial gain later this year.

Let's see if Mr. Alan Gaines from DUNR can turn this play around. I'm sure there's negativity out there somewhere, but I like what I see going forward not backwards.

Alan Gaines salary at DUNR $500k. Now to some that may seem high, but to me? The higher the better because no one in their right mind would hand over that much cash without having prior knowledge of his performance in past. FYI<JMO
