Basis of preparation and principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Phoenix Energy and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions with and between Phoenix Energy and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Liquidity risk and management's plans

Liquidity risk and management’s plans

The Company is exposed to liquidity risk as its continued operation is dependent upon its ability to continue to obtain financing, either in the form of debt or equity, or by achieving profitable operations in order to satisfy its liabilities as they come due.
