ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of Laredo Oil, Inc. (the “Company”). The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2008 under the name of “Laredo Mining, Inc.” As of that date, the Company had 90,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, at $0.0001 par value, and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, at $0.0001 par value. On October 21, 2009, the name of the Company was changed to “Laredo Oil, Inc.” During May of 2023, the Company’s board of directors voted to increase the authorized shares of common stock to 120,000,000 shares, which increase was approved by the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock then outstanding.

 

The Company is an oil exploration and production company, primarily engaged in acquisition and exploration efforts to find mineral reserves on various properties. From its inception in March 2008, through October 2009, the Company was primarily engaged in acquisition and exploration efforts for mineral properties. Beginning in October 2009, the Company shifted its focus to locating mature oil fields with the intention of acquiring those oil fields and recovering stranded oil reserves using proprietary enhanced recovery methods known as underground gravity drainage, or UGD.

 

The original UGD method uses conventional mining processes to establish a drilling chamber underneath an existing oil field reservoir from where closely spaced wellbores are intended to be drilled directionally up into the reservoir using residual radial pressure and gravity to then drain the targeted reservoir through the wellbores. As the Company gained experience through practical application of the processes involved in oil recovery, variants of the UGD concept have been developed and evaluated. The UGD method is applicable to mature oil fields that have very specific geological characteristics. The Company has done extensive research and has identified oil fields within the United States and globally that it believes are qualified for UGD recovery methods. The Company primary business and focus is to pursue and recover stranded oil from selected mature fields chosen from these oil fields as funds become available.

 

The Company believes that the costs of implementing the UGD method are radically lower than those presently experienced by commonly used Enhanced Oil Recovery (“EOR”) methods. The Company also estimates that it can materially increase the field oil production rate from prior periods and recover amounts of oil equal to or greater than amounts previously recovered from the mature fields selected. The Company intends to seek oil fields with a minimum of 25 million barrels of estimated recoverable oil.

 

When the Company acquires a targeted oil field, it will continue to operate the producing field and expects to generate revenue and profit from doing so. Once the development of the underground chamber and the UGD method is prepared for operation, the conventional wells will be capped and UGD production begun. The Company believes that the effect of such operations should result in minimal disruption of oil production from its field investments.

 

On June 14, 2011, the Company entered into several exclusive licensing and management agreements with Stranded Oil Resources Corporation, or SORC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Alleghany Corporation, or Alleghany, to manage the acquisition and operation of mature oil fields in Kansas, Wyoming and Louisiana, focused on the recovery of “stranded” oil from those mature fields primarily using UGD. The Company performed those services in exchange for a carried interest in SORC, a quarterly management fee and reimbursement from SORC of the Company’s employee-related expenses. Such fees and reimbursements were effectively all the Company’s revenues prior to its acquisition of SORC under the Securities Purchase Agreement with Alleghany described below.

 

On December 31, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Alleghany. Under that agreement, the Company purchased all the issued and outstanding shares of SORC. As consideration for the SORC shares, the Company paid Alleghany $72,678 in cash and agreed to pay Alleghany a seven-year royalty of 5.0% of the Company’s future revenues and net profits from its oil, gas, gas liquids and all other hydrocarbon operations, subject to certain adjustments. Currently, SORC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and is not conducting any ongoing operations.

 

Prior to purchasing the shares of SORC, while implementing underground gravity drainage, or UGD, projects for Allegheny, we gained specialized know-how and operational experience in evaluating, acquiring, operating and developing oil and gas properties, as well as expertise in designing, drilling and producing conventional oil wells. Based upon that know-how, we identified and acquired 45,246 gross acres, and 37,932 net acres, of mineral property interests in the State of Montana in the Lustre and Midfork fields and the West Fork area. As of August 31, 2026, five wells have been drilled in the Lustre and Midfork fields. None have been economically successful due primarily to encountering excess water. Further, as of August 31, 2026, the majority of the leases acquired have expired or been released, and the Company does not intend to renew them.

 

 

The Company formed a Texas registered entity on November 19, 2025, named Laredo Mex, LLC, to manage any future operations located in Mexico. To date, no transactions have been incurred by this entity. The Company also has a 50% interest in the Cat Creek oil field, located west of the Company’s mineral rights described above.
