C. Reasons for the Offer and Use of Proceeds
Not required as this 20-F filing is made as an annual report.
D. Risk Factors
THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH AN INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK. BEFORE MAKING A DECISION CONCERNING THE PURCHASE OF OUR SECURITIES, YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING FACTORS AND OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS ANNUAL REPORT WHEN YOU EVALUATE OUR BUSINESS.
Business Risks:
Risks Associated with Our Company.
We have a limited history of operations which makes it difficult to evaluate the investment merits of our Company.
If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail because we will be unable to fund even the administration of our minimal operations.
In order for the Company to continue we need to obtain additional financing. As of December 31, 2018, we had cash in the amount of $36,629.
The future issuance of debt may contain contractual restrictions that may curtail implementation of our business plan.
We do not have any contractual restrictions limiting our ability to incur debt. Any significant indebtedness, however, could restrict our ability to fully implement our business plan. If we are unable to repay the debt, we could be forced to cease operating.
2
The loss of any of our key personnel may affect our ability to implement our business plan and cause our stock to decline in value.
We are dependent on Jai Woo Lee, Director of the Company, to implement our business plan and the loss of his services may have a negative effect on our ability to timely and successfully implement our business plan. We do not have an employment agreement with Jai Woo Lee and we have not obtained key man insurance over him.
Investment Risks:
Any issuance of additional shares may have the effect of diluting the interest of existing shareholders; shareholders of our common stock do not have preemptive rights.
Any additional issuances of common stock by us from our authorized but unissued shares may have the effect of diluting the percentage interest of existing shareholders. The securities issued to raise funds may have rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of the holders of our other securities, including our common stock. The board of directors has the power to issue such shares without shareholder approval. We fully intend to issue additional common shares in order to raise capital to fund our business operations and growth objectives.
We do not anticipate paying dividends to our common stockholders in the foreseeable future, which makes investment in our stock speculative and risky.
We have not paid dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The board of directors has sole authority to declare dividends payable to our stockholders. The fact that we have not paid and do not plan to pay dividends indicates that we must use all of our funds we generate for reinvestment in our business activities. Investors also must evaluate an investment in the Company solely on the basis of anticipated capital gains.
Limited liability of our executive officers and directors may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against them.
Our Memorandum and Articles of Incorporation contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages and provide for indemnification of officers and directors. These provisions may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against officers and directors for breaches of fiduciary duty and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors even though such action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited the shareholders. In addition, a shareholder's investment in the Company may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay costs of settlement and damage awards against officers or directors pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the bylaw. The impact on a shareholder's investment in terms of the cost of defending a lawsuit may deter the shareholder from bringing suit against any of our officers or directors. We have been advised that the SEC takes the position that these article and bylaw provisions do not affect the liability of any director under applicable federal and state securities laws.
Since we are a Canadian company and most of our assets and key personnel are located outside of the United States of America, you may not be able to enforce any United States judgment for claims you may bring against us, our assets, our key personnel or the experts named in this document.
We have been organized under the laws of Canada. Many of our assets are located outside the United States. In addition, a majority of the members of our board of directors and our officers and the experts named in this document are residents of countries other than the United States. As a result, it may be impossible for you to effect service of process within the United States upon us or these persons or to enforce against us or these persons any judgments in civil and commercial matters, including judgments under United States federal securities laws. In addition, a Canadian court may not permit you to bring an original action in Canada or to enforce in Canada a judgment of a U.S. court based upon civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains forward-looking statements. We intend to identify forward-looking statements in this document using words such as "anticipates", "will", "believes", "plans", "expects", "future", "intends" or similar expressions. These statements are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions we made using information currently available to us. Because these statements reflect our current views concerning future events, these statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

Some, but not all, of the factors that may cause these differences include those discussed in the Risk Factors section. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
ITEM 4 - Information on the Company
A. History and Development of the Company
KBridge Energy Corp ("KBridge" or the "Company") was originally incorporated on October 23, 2002 under the laws of British Columbia, Canada with the name Penn Biotech Inc. On January 13, 2005, the Company changed its name to United Traffic System Inc. On November 30, 2007, it consolidated its outstanding common shares on a 10 old share for 1 new share basis and changed its name to Corpus Resources Corporation. On June 23, 2009, the Company changed its name to NeoMedyx Medical Corporation and on February 24, 2010, changed its name to Blue Marble Media Corp. On December 8, 2011, the Company changed its name to KBridge Energy Corp. All references to shares of common stock in this document refer to post split.
We have not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings, nor have we been a party to any material reclassification, merger, consolidation or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets.
In 2004, the Company obtained an exclusive right to use patented biotechnology for the mass production of seed potatoes (potato microtubers) under a license agreement with the Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology (KRIBB). The Company developed its microtuber tissue culture at a laboratory leased from the Olds College Centre for Innovation (OCCI), Alberta, Canada and in November 2004 terminated its lease with OCCI and relocated its seed potato operations to the city of Yanji located in Jilin Province and to the city of Wuxi located in Yunnan Province, both located in The People's Republic of China (PRC). The potato business was discontinued in China during the 3rd quarter of 2005 due to a lack of funding and a down-shift in the demand for seed potatoes. The seed plant operations are no longer in existence.
On December 22, 2003, the Company agreed to acquire the license to manufacture, install and sell technology owned by Traffic-Its Co., Ltd. The license provided the Company with the exclusive right to use the technology for the duration of the patent and to commercially exploit the technology in Asia, Europe, and North America. Subsequent to December 31, 2003, the Company determined the licensor had failed to comply with the terms of the agreement and cancelled the contract. After renewed negotiations, the Company re-entered its agreement with Traffic-Its Co., Ltd. in 2004. During 2005, it was determined by management to be unfeasible to continue operations and the project was discontinued during the 3rd quarter of 2005.
During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company officially abandoned all previous business activities.
During the years 2006 and 2007, the Company actively sought opportunities to acquire mineral exploration properties. In 2007, management of the Company reviewed a number of mineral concession opportunities in the People's Republic of China. Ultimately, these opportunities were deemed unsuitable for the Company at that time.

On February 27, 2009, the Company entered an agreement with Biokhan Corporation (Biokhan) whereby the Company would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Biokhan effective January 2, 2009 for the issuance of 30,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Biokhan manufactures, sells, imports and exports medical and dental devices - in particular, dental implant materials and tools for dental implant operations. Biokhan failed to meet its financial commitments in the agreement and the acquisition was terminated November 2009. During this period the Company entered into discussions and a due diligence phase for the acquisition of Blue Cree Co Ltd., a company registered in the Republic of (South) Korea (Blue Cree) and, effective January 2, 2010, the Company entered an agreement with Blue Cree whereby the Company would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Blue Cree for the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Blue Cree is in the business of providing integrated commercial production services for television advertising, marketing, creative advertising and online promotion in South Korea and overseas production using in house skilled specialists. However, in December 2010 the acquisition of Blue Cree was abandoned due to the failure of both parties to meet their respective obligations under the agreement.
In 2011 the Company changed its name to KBridge Energy Corp. and began operations marketing resource based opportunities in North America to customers based in Korea as a broker for energy and resource related contracts where the Company brought together the energy/resource opportunity with the financing and continued developing this business.
B. Business Overview
Between 2013 and 2014, the Company brokered contracts for Korean investors to invest in the resource sector, specifically natural gas and uranium.
During 2016 and 2017, the Company continued to seek out both suitable energy resource opportunities and investor/customers with the objective of matching the investor/customers funds with the resource assets. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company generated revenues of $46,840 (2017 - $41,970) from oil and gas business by having ownership of 50% of working interest through operations in Alberta, after purchasing oil well property on December 1, 2015. In addition, the Company generated revenues of $132,001 (2017 - $277,915) from consulting services in the resource sector.
The Company requires additional financing in order to meet its anticipated working capital and acquisition costs.
Employees
The Company intends to use the services of contractors and consultants for the administration of its projects. At present, in an effort to conserve cash and allow greater flexibility in the future, we have no paid employees.
Government Regulation
Our business complies with all relevant laws.
C. Organizational Structure
KBridge is the parent company of its operating subsidiary company, Futura Kbridge SPA Inc.
D. Property, Plant and Equipment
The Company has no leased or owned property, plant or equipment.
ITEM 5 - Operating and Financial Review and Prospects
The following discussion and analysis is based on and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements including the notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere herein. The audited financial statements have been prepared using US dollars and are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
5
A. Operating Results
Year comparison between 2018 and 2017
The Company had net loss of $328,497 for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to net income of $78,424 in 2017. In 2018, the Company generated revenue of $178,841 compared to $319,885 in 2017. During 2018, the Company's revenues decreased and expenses increased, which led the Company to have a higher net loss compared to 2017.
B. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our sources of liquidity are expected to be cash generated from operating activities and equity financing. The Company had cash on hand as at December 31, 2018 in the amount of $36,629 (2017 - $35,168). During the year ended December 31, 2018 the Company had negative operating cash flow of $54,020 compared to positive operating cash flow of $68,320 in the previous year. In 2018, the Company earned $132,001 in consulting fees (2017 - $277,915) primarily by introducing a potential uranium supply (exploration stage) and an opportunity to secure natural gas supply to a Korean market. During the year ended December 31, 2018 the Company had $581,011 cash flow from financing activities. In the comparable period, the Company had positive cash flow from financing activities resulting from proceeds from loan payable of $185,264.
We will require additional funding in order to develop business opportunities we determine to pursue. There can be no assurances that financing, whether debt or equity, will be available to us in the amounts required at any particular time or for any particular period or if available at all, or that it can be obtained on satisfactory terms. We have no arrangements in place with our officers, directors or affiliates to provide liquidity to us.
We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital within the next twelve months in order to continue implementing our business plan. We will need to raise the funds through debt or equity financing or a combination of both. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or equity-related securities, the issuance of such securities is likely to result in dilution to our shareholders. There can be no assurance that sources of capital will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, and might have to reorganize under bankruptcy laws, liquidate, or enter into a business combination. If adequate funds are not available within the next twelve months, we may be required to significantly curtail our operations or no longer be able to operate.
C. Research and development, patents and licenses etc.
We do not currently and did not previously have research and development policies in place. Over the past two fiscal years, we have expended zero amounts on research and development. We do not have any patents or licenses.
D. Trend Information
We are not aware as of the filing of this annual report of any known trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition.
E. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that would require disclosure.
F. Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations
During the year ended December 31, 2018 the Company was not party to any contractually obligated payments.

G. Safe Harbor
This annual report contains forward-looking statements.

These statements are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions we made using information currently available to us. Because these statements reflect our current views concerning future events, these statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual future results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of the factors that may cause these differences include those discussed in the Risk Factors section. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

There is no limitation, imposed either by Canadian law or by the Articles of Incorporation and other charter documents of the Company, on the right of a non-resident to hold voting shares of the Company, other than as provided by the Investment Canada Act as amended (the "Act") and as amended by the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (Canada) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement Implementation Act.

ITEM 11 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Transaction Risk and Currency Risk Management
We are subject to market risk exposures due to fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates. Changes in the foreign exchange rate between the CDN$ and the US$ may affect us due to the effect of such changes on any shareholder distributions to the shareholders using US$ as a main currency. The Company denominates its financial statements in United States dollars but conducts its daily affairs in Canadian dollars. We are not currently carrying significant amounts of short term or long-term debt. Upward fluctuations in interest rates increase the cost of additional debt and the interest cost of outstanding floating rate borrowings.
Inflation
We do not consider that inflation in Canada has had a material impact on our results of operations. Inflation in Canada in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 was: 1.32%, 2.35%, 2.30%, 0.83%, 1.24%, 1.47%, 1.61%, 1.50%, 1.61%, and 2.30% respectively.

The Company is not currently in default, arrears or delinquent with respect to any of its debt obligations or other responsibilities.
ITEM 14 - Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders and Use of Proceeds
Not applicable.
ITEM 15 - Controls and Procedures
A. Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. This information is accumulated and communicated to our executive officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chairman, acting as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the weaknesses identified below, the acting Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The small size of our company does not provide for the desired separation of control functions, and we do not have the required level of documentation of our monitoring and control procedures. The remedies for this situation are described below.
B. Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017 using the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, the Company determined that there were significant deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below:
·
Certain entity level controls establishing a tone at the top were considered material weaknesses. The Company does not have an audit committee. The Company does not have any independent directors and thus no independent directors to sit on the audit committee if there was one.
·
The Company has not formally adopted internal controls surrounding its cash and financial reporting procedures including the absence of sufficient management review controls and separation of duties.
·
The lack of independent directors exercising an oversight role increases the risk of management override.
Management is currently evaluating remediation plans for the above control deficiencies.
In light of the existence of these control deficiencies, management concluded that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the Companys internal controls.
14
C. Attestation Report of the Registered Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
D. Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
ITEM 16A - Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Company does not yet have an audit committee financial expert. The Company intends to appoint a financial expert once commercial operations commence.
ITEM 16B - Code of Ethics
The Company does not have in place a written code of ethics that applies to its executive, financial or accounting officers or to persons performing similar functions. The Company is dependent upon its president to lead by example and has faith in his ability to do so. Once the Company becomes more diverse in its operations and where required by regulation, it intends to implement a code of ethics for its officers. The Company does not plan to grant any waiver, including an implicit waiver, from a provision of the code of business conduct and ethics to any person.
ITEM 16C - Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The Company's Board of Directors is currently acting as the audit committee.
The Board pre-approves all of the services, audit and non-audit, to be provided by the Company's independent accountant. The Board of Directors understands the need for our principal accountants to maintain objectivity and independence in their audit of our financial statements. The Board of Directors has restricted the non-audit services that the Company's principal accountants may provide to primarily to tax services and review assurance services. The Board of Directors has not adopted any other formal policies and procedures for pre-approving work performed by the Company's principal accountants.
The Board of Directors on review of the services provided by the principal accountants of the Company this year has determined that payment of the above audit fees is in conformance with the independent status of the Company's principal independent accountants.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Kbridge Energy Corp.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kbridge Energy Corp. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), stockholders deficit and cash flows, for the years then ended, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in this regard are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

KBRIDGE ENERGY CORP.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
December 31, 2018
(Expressed in U.S. dollars)
1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
Kbridge Energy Corp. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, on October 23, 2002. The Company is an oil and gas producing company with operations in Alberta Canada and it also provides consulting services to the resource sector.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at December 31, 2018, the Company has a working capital deficit of $1,027,370 and has an accumulated deficit of $3,190,700 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management intends to obtain additional funding by borrowing from its directors and third parties.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in U.S. dollars.
(b) Principals of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Companys wholly owned Canadian subsidiary Futura Kbridge SPA Inc.. On consolidation, all intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.
(c) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the impairment of marketable securities, allowance for doubtful accounts, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

KBRIDGE ENERGY CORP.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
December 31, 2018
(Expressed in U.S. dollars)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(e) Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represents amounts owed from customers for consulting services and the sale of oil and gas. Amounts are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the Companys best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and current economic conditions. The Company reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful account on a regularly basis. As at December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts.
(f) Revenue Recognition
The Company derives revenue primarily by providing consulting services and the sale of oil and gas. In accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 605, Revenue Recognition, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the services have been rendered and the goods have been delivered, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Customer advances are deferred and recognized as revenue when the Company has completed all of its performance obligations relating to the consulting services.
(g) Equity Method Investment
The Company accounts for its investment in associated companies in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 323, Investments Equity Method and Joint Ventures (ASC 323). In accordance with ASC 323, associated companies are accounted for as equity method investments. Results of associate companies are presented on a one-line basis. Investments in, and advances to, associated companies are presented on a one-line basis in the caption Equity Investment in the Companys consolidated balance sheets, net of allowance for losses, which represents the Companys best estimate of probable losses inherent in such assets. The Companys proportionate share of any associated companies net income or loss is presented on a one-line basis in the caption Gain (loss) on equity investment in the Companys consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). Transactions between the Company and any associated companies are eliminated on a basis proportional to the Companys ownership interest.
(h) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
The Company files income tax returns in Canada. The Company may be subject to a reassessment of income taxes by Canadian tax authorities for a period of three years from the date of the original notice of assessment in respect of any particular taxation year. Tax authorities of Canada have not audited any of the Companys income tax returns for the open taxation years noted above.
As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there were no charges for interest or penalties.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(i) Stock-based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation and ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
(j) Foreign Currency Translation
The Company changed its function currency from United States dollars to Canadian dollar on January 1, 2015. The subsidiarys functional currency is the United States dollar. The reporting currency is the United States dollar. Management has adopted ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Average monthly rates are used to translate revenues and expenses. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.
On consolidation the Company translates assets and liabilities of its subsidiary to U.S. dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date, and translates revenues and expenses using average exchange rates during the period. Gains and losses arising on translation of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the other comprehensive income/loss.
(k) Financial Instruments
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instruments categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, loan payable, and amounts due to a related party. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of cash and marketable securities are determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(l) Comprehensive Income/Loss
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the consolidated financial statements. As at December 31, 2018, the Company has included the effect on translation of foreign operation in comprehensive income/loss.
(m) Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life. The liability accretes until the Company settles the obligation.
(n) Oil and Gas Properties
The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, all acquisition, exploration and development costs, including certain payroll, asset retirement costs, other internal costs, and interest incurred for the purpose of finding oil and natural gas reserves, are capitalized.
(o) Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share". ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
(p) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
(q) Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years financial statements to conform to the current years presentation.
