Freestone Resources, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2016
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Activities, History and Organization:
Freestone Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “Freestone”) is an oil and gas technology development company that is actively developing and marketing technologies and solvents designed to benefit various sectors in the oil and gas industry. The Company has re-launched its Petrozene™ solvent after developing a new and improved formula. Petrozene™ is primarily used to dissolve paraffin buildup, and it is primarily used for pipelines, oil storage tanks, oil sludge build up, de-emulsification, well treatment, as a corrosion inhibitor and as a catalyst in opening up formations thereby aiding in oil production.
On June 24, 2015 Freestone purchased 100% of the common stock of C.C. Crawford Retreading Company, Inc. (“CTR”), a Texas corporation. CTR is an Off-The-Road (“OTR”) tire company located in Ennis, Texas, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Freestone. CTR’s primary business is to repair, recycle, dispose of and sell OTR tires, which are used on large, industrial equipment. Freestone made the decision to purchase CTR in order to utilize the CTR facility for the production of Petrozene™.
On June 24, 2015 the Company formed Freestone Dynamis Energy Products, LLC (“FDEP”), a Delaware limited liability company, with Dynamis Energy, LLC (“Dynamis”). FDEP was formed in order to operate and manage the specialized pyrolysis process that is used to create Petrozene™ and other byproducts of value. Freestone chose to work with Dynamis based on their extensive engineering and waste-to-energy expertise. Freestone owns a 70% member interest in FDEP.
The acquisition of CTR and the formation of FDEP have allowed Freestone to vertically integrate the Petrozene™ product line. CTR will remain an auxiliary company that will maintain existing operations that complement the efforts of FDEP and Freestone.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements:
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTE 2 – INVENTORY
Inventory of the Company is carried at lower of cost or market. At the acquisition of CTR, the Company’s inventory was revalued at fair market value as part of the purchase price allocation. The Company’s inventory consists of processed rubber from disposed tires carried at cost of processing, and used tires for sale carried at the cost of repairs. As of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016 inventory consisted of:
3/31/17 | 6/30/16 | |||||||
Crum Rubber for Processing | $ | 8,087 | $ | 8,087 | ||||

Depreciation expense was $94,389 and $87,116 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively.
NOTE 4 – ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY
The Company’s tire recycling permit requires the Company to ultimately dispose of all tires accepted for recycling. Tire disposal occurs in the normal course of business however the Company always has tires stored at its facility that have not yet been disposed of. CTR had recorded liabilities totaling $320,000 at June 30, 2014 (Predecessor) for estimated costs related to dispose of all tires at its Ennis, Texas facility. The environmental liability was calculated by estimating the costs associated with the various disposal costs that would be necessary to remove the tires from the CTR permitted facility. Upon acquisition of CTR by Freestone the liability was reduced to $32,000 (Successor) as part of the purchase price allocation, and the revaluation of assets and liability to fair market value. The reduction was due to the formation of FDEP. CTR plans to convert the majority of the tires into crum rubber, and sell it to FDEP as a feedstock for its specialized pyrolysis operations. The remaining $32,000 was an estimate of cost of disposing of the tires that are not acceptable for use as feedstock. At June 30, 2016, CTR increased its liability to $400,000 representing the estimated disposal fees on the revised estimate of tires on hand. Although CTR still plans to convert the majority of the tires in crum rubber for use by FDEP the liability was recorded as part of the plan submitted to the TCEQ to cure potential violations regarding it processing permit. Since the plan requires CTR to significantly reduce the number of tires on hand within the next year and, to date, FDEP has not been able to demonstrate the capacity to use the number of tires on hand, the liability is considered short-term. The environmental liability has a balance of $400,000 as of March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2016, respectively. In December, 2016 the TCEQ notified CTR of $48,750 of proposed penalties for violations. CTR has submitted additional information to the TCEQ seeking to have the penalties waived or reduced however the amount has been accrued and is included in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2017.

As of March 31, 2017 there were no stock warrants outstanding.
NOTE 8 – GOING CONCERN
As of the date of this quarterly report, there is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flows to fund our business operations and loan commitments. Our future success and viability, therefore, are dependent upon our ability to generate capital financing. The failure to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional capital may have a material and adverse effect upon the Company and our shareholders.
The Company formed FDEP in order to vertically integrate its Petrozene™ product line, and utilize a specialized pyrolysis process in order to produce other byproducts of value that will generate revenue for FDEP. In turn, the ability of FDEP to process large quantities of OTR tires will allow the Company to increase the amount of OTR tires it can dispose of and process, which will generate additional revenue of the Company. Additionally, the Company intends to raise equity or debt financing that will allow the Company to expand its current operations.
NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company leases office space in Dallas, TX under a non-cancelable operating lease that expires in July 2017, a truck for its tire disposal operations at CTR under a 30-month lease expiring in April, 2019 and warehouse space in Ennis, TX on a month to month basis. Future minimum lease payments are as follows:

General
Freestone Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “Freestone”), a Nevada corporation, is an oil and gas technology development company that is actively developing and marketing technologies and solvents designed to benefit various sectors in the oil and gas industry. The Company has re-launched its Petrozene™ solvent after developing a new and improved formula. Petrozene™ is primarily used to dissolve paraffin buildup, and it is primarily used for pipelines, oil storage tanks, oil sludge build up, de-emulsification, well treatment, as a corrosion inhibitor and as a catalyst in opening up formations thereby aiding in oil production.
On June 24, 2015 Freestone purchased 100% of the common stock of C.C. Crawford Retreading Company, Inc. (“CTR”), a Texas corporation. CTR is an Off-The-Road (“OTR”) tire company located in Ennis, Texas, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Freestone. CTR’s primary business is to repair, recycle, dispose of and sell OTR tires, which are used on large, industrial equipment. Freestone made the decision to purchased CTR in order to utilize the CTR facility for the production of Petrozene™.
On June 24, 2015 the Company formed Freestone Dynamis Energy Products, LLC (“FDEP”) with Dynamis Energy, LLC (“Dynamis”). FDEP was formed in order to operate and manage the specialized pyrolysis process that is used to create Petrozene™ and other byproducts of value. Freestone chose to work with Dynamis based on their extensive engineering and waste-to-energy expertise. Freestone owns a 70% member interest in FDEP.
The acquisition of CTR and the formation of FDEP have allowed Freestone to vertically integrate the Petrozene™ product line. CTR will remain an auxiliary company that will maintain existing operations that complement the efforts of FDEP and Freestone.
Results of Operations
Three and nine months ended March 31, 2017 compared to three and nine months ended March 31, 2017
Revenue – Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $249,890 compared to $250,586 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017 revenue was $811,314 from the prior year of $822,124. The decrease was due to a drop in tire repair revenue offset by slight increases in other areas.
Cost of Revenues – Cost of revenue increased from $514,719 for the nine months ended March 31, 216 to $581,592 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 despite the decrease in revenue. This was due to increased costs in the Company’s trucking operations as increased costs associated with the expansion of the disposal operations and increase disposal costs due to the environmental issues discussed in Note 4. For the quarter ended March 31, 2017 cost similarly increased by $7,234 from $160,620 to $167,854 due to the same issues mentioned above.
Operating Expense – Total operating expenses dropped from $948,542 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $414,333 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and from $2,067,834 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 to $1,255,209 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017,. The primary area of decrease was in the parent company Freestone in the form of decreased employee compensation and professional fees. The higher professional fees in the prior year were due to audit, legal and consulting cost associated with the acquisition of CTR. The higher compensation costs in the prior were due to employee stock compensation of $841,500 compared to $23,750 in the current year. Operating expenses of CTR increased from $405,677 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 to $433,341 the nine months ended March 31, 2017 due primarily to the $48,750 for TCEQ penalties discussed in Note 4. Startup costs for FDEP decreased from $343,339 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 to $239,679 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017. This was primarily due to installation costs in the quarter ended December 31, 2015.

Other Income and Expenses – Other income and expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 consisted of $114,138 of interest expense and a loss of $6,200 on the sale of fixed assets compared to other income and expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 consisting of $99,636 of interest expense and $2,111 loss on sale of assets. Other income and expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 consisted of $41,644 and $30,708 of interest, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due the Company’s increase in debt.
Net Income (Loss)
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $350,186 compared $860,860 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Net losses for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were $1,069,918 and $1,757,182 respectively. The decrease in the net loss was primarily due to a decrease in the operating expenses of Freestone detailed above offset by the increase loss of CTR as a result of the decrease in revenue and increase in trucking disposal and operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has little cash reserves and liquidity to the extent we receive it from operations and through the sale of common stock
The accompanying financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of the date of this quarterly report, there is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flows to fund our business operations and loan commitments. Our future success and viability, therefore, are dependent upon our ability to generate capital financing. The failure to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional capital may have a material and adverse effect upon the Company and our shareholders.
The Company formed FDEP in order to vertically integrate its Petrozene™ product line, and utilize a specialized pyrolysis process in order to produce other byproducts of value that will generate revenue for FDEP. In turn, the ability of FDEP to process large quantities of OTR tires will allow the Company to reduce the cost of disposal of OTR tires by CTR. Additionally, the Company intends to raise equity or debt financing that will allow the Company to expand its current operations.
Net cash used in operations was $586,251 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 compared to net cash used by operations of $647,808 for the nine months ended March31, 2016. The change was primarily due to a reduction in non- cash stock issuance expenses in the current year from $841,500 to $23,750 offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities. The cash used in operations was offset by $240,449 of cash contributions to FDEP by the non-controlling interest, sale of common stock for proceeds of $25,000 and $355,567 of proceeds from borrowing.
As of March 31, 2017 the Company has negative equity of $920,355 and negative working capital of $1,325,635.
.
Employees
As of December 31, 2016 CTR had 17 full-time employees. Freestone has three employees.
Need for Additional Financing
The Company is uncertain of its ability to generate sufficient liquidity from its operations so the need for additional funding may be necessary. The Company may sell stock and/or issue additional debt to raise capital to accelerate its growth.
