Petroteq Energy Inc. (the “Company”) is an Ontario corporation which conducts oil sands mining and oil extraction operations in the USA. It operates through its indirectly wholly owned subsidiary company, Petroteq Oil Recovery, LLC (“POSR”), which is engaged in mining and oil extraction from tar sands, and its 44.7% owned and equity accounted company Accord GR Energy, Inc. (“Accord”), which is engaged in using a specialized technology to extract oil from oil wells which have been depleted using conventional extraction methods.

The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 6000, 1 First Canadian Place, 100 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, M5X IE2, Canada and its principal operating office is located at 15165 Ventura Blvd, Suite 200, Sherman Oaks, California 91403, USA.

POSR is engaged in a tar sands mining and oil processing operation, using a closed-loop solvent based extraction system that recovers bitumen from surface mining, and has completed the construction of an oil processing plant in the Asphalt Ridge area of Utah.

On July 4, 2016, the Company acquired 57.3% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Accord which, due to additional share subscriptions in Accord by other shareholders since August 31, 2016, was reduced to 44.7% as of August 31, 2017. The investment in Accord has therefore been recorded using the equity method for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2019 and 2018, and for the years ended August 31, 2018 and 2017.

On April 6, 2017, the shareholders of the Company approved the consolidation of its shares on a 30 for 1 basis, which was effected on May 5, 2017. The number of shares issued and outstanding have been retroactively adjusted for this in these financial statements.

In November 2017, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Petrobloq, LLC, to design and develop a blockchain-powered supply chain management platform for the oil and gas industry.

On June 1, 2018, the Company finalized the acquisition of a 100% interest in two leases for 1,312 acres of land within the Asphalt Ridge, Utah area. The lease contains unproven bitumen deposits which increases our total bitumen deposits available for mining.

On January 18, 2019, the Company paid a cash deposit of $1,800,000 for the acquisition of 50% of the operating rights under U.S. federal oil and gas leases, administered by the U.S. Department of Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) covering approximately 5,960 gross acres (2,980 net acres) within the State of Utah. The total consideration of $10,800,000 was settled by the $1,800,000 cash deposit and by the issuance of 15,000,000 shares at a deemed issue price of $0.60 per share.
