 a net loss of $9,626,797 and cash flows used in operating activities of $3,840,744. For the year ended October 31, 2023, we generated no revenues, reported a net loss of $6,544,426, and cash flows used in operating activities of $4,036,834. As of October 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $20,073,679. Our management has concluded that our accumulated deficit and no source of revenue sufficient to cover our cost of operation as well as our dependence on private equity and other financings raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and our auditor has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its audit report for the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023.

Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These adjustments would likely include substantial impairment of the carrying amount of our assets and potential contingent liabilities that may arise if we are unable to fulfill various operational commitments. In addition, the value of our securities would be greatly impaired. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon generating sufficient cash flow from operations and obtaining additional capital and financing. If our ability to generate cash flow from operations is delayed or reduced and we are unable to raise additional funding from other sources, we may be unable to continue in business. For further discussion about our ability to continue as a going concern and our plan for future liquidity, see “ Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.”

We may face delays and/or obstacles in project development due to difficulties in obtaining necessary permits from federal, state, county and/or local agencies, which may materially affect our business.

We are subject to a number of federal, state, county and local laws, regulations and other requirements relating to oil and natural gas operations. The laws and regulations that affect the oil and natural gas industry are under constant review for amendment or expansion. Some of these laws, regulations and requirements result in challenges, delays and/or obstacles in obtaining permits, and some carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. The regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas industry increases our cost of doing business, can affect and even obstruct our operations and, consequently, can affect our profitability.

Various permits for exploratory drilling and production-testing are in-hand for the South Salinas Project, whereas
