Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in US dollars)

(unaudited)

1)	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of Park Place Energy Corp. and its consolidated subsidiary (“Park Place”, the “Company”, “we”, or “our”). In our opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2015, and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, have been made in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. These interim financial statements and notes are condensed as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

(b)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern Subtopic 205- 40—Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The new standard will be effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014- 15 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

(c)

Loss Per Share

The Company computes loss per share of Company stock in accordance with ASC 260 (“Earnings per Share”), which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of 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 potential dilutive effect of outstanding stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had 14,810,645 and 14,444,610 potentially dilutive shares outstanding, respectively, and 13,593,517 and 13,266,313, respectively, that were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

2.)	Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has no revenues and has incurred continuous losses from operations and had an accumulated deficit of $14,141,610 at September 30, 2015. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new ventures to increase revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful, therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3.)	Oil and Gas Properties


	September 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Unproven properties
Bulgaria	$	2,582,734	$	2,196,157

The Company holds a 98,205 acre oil and gas exploration claim in the Dobrudja Basin located in northeast Bulgaria. The Company intends to conduct exploration for natural gas and test production activities over a five year period in accordance with or exceeding its minimum work program obligation. The Company’s commitment is to perform geological and geophysical exploration activities in the first 3 years of the initial term (the “Exploration and Geophysical Work Stage”), followed by drilling activities in years 4 and 5 of the initial term (the “Data Evaluation and Drilling Stage”). The Company is required to drill 10,000 meters (approximately 32,800 feet) of new wellbore (which may be vertical, horizontal or diagonal) and conduct other exploration activities during the initial term. The Company intends to commence its work program efforts once it receives all regular regulatory approvals of its work programs.

4.)	Note Receivable

In April 2015, the Company loaned $38,570 to a Bulgarian company pursuant to a revolving credit facility, enabling such Bulgarian company to buy and manage land in Bulgaria to be leased by the Company for future well sites.

Payment on the facility is due the earlier of the end of the five-year term (April 6, 2020) or demand by the Company. As of September 30, 2015 the outstanding balance on the loan obligation was $39,086.

Executive Summary

Park Place is an energy company engaged in oil and gas exploration in Bulgaria.

On August 26, 2014, the Bulgarian environmental agency approved the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program. A number of parties appealed the decision of the environmental agency. An appeals proceeding has been commenced before an administrative judge panel and an initial hearing was held on May 20, 2015. At the May 20, 2015 meeting, the administrative judge panel postponed any consideration of the appeal. On October 26, 2015, a hearing of the administrative judge panel was held. Deliberations on the appeals were postponed to a future date that has not been formally set by the panel. The Company is participating in that proceeding as an interested party. The Company is continuing its data gathering, evaluation and planning, is acquiring the land for future well sites and is performing an environmental baseline survey of the license area. The initial term of the License Agreement will not begin until (i) the appeals proceeding is completed and the decision upheld and (ii) the Bulgarian energy agency has approved the Company’s work programs.

The Company held a special meeting of its stockholders on November 11, 2015, at which the stockholders approved the Company’s proposed corporate restructuring plan. For the restructuring, the Company created a new Delaware corporation, Park Place Energy Inc. (“PPE Inc.”), as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and a new Nevada corporation that is a wholly owned subsidiary of PPE Inc. Following stockholder approval, the Nevada subsidiary of PPE Inc. was merged with the Company so that the Company became the wholly-owned subsidiary of PPE Inc., and PPE Inc. has become the publicly traded parent holding company. In connection with the restructuring, the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock were automatically converted into the same number of shares of common stock of PPE Inc. The stockholders of the Company automatically became the stockholders of PPE Inc. and now own the same number of shares of PPE Inc. common stock that they owned of the Company common stock immediately prior to the restructuring.

Results of Operations

The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, which are included herein.

Revenue

We are a pre-revenue stage company, and our future revenues depend upon successful exploration of oil and gas assets.

Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, our general and administrative expenses decreased to $176,441 from $267,552 for the same period in 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, our general and administrative expenses decreased to $587,460 from $635,023 for the same period in 2014. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to reduced consulting and travel costs.

Other Income (Expenses)

Other income (expenses) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was income for both periods due to a $120,000 reversal of certain tax-related expenses due to a favorable tax ruling. Foreign exchange rate fluctuations resulted in a loss of $1,066 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to a loss of $12,034 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, other expenses were $39,138 and $21,117, respectively, due to a foreign exchange loss.

Loss

Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $57,507 compared to a loss of $279,586 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $506,598 compared to a loss of $656,140 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in net loss was a result of the factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our liquidity position:


	September 30, 2015 (Unaudited)		December 31, 2014
Cash	$	491,644	$	1,539,439
Working capital		461,898		1,288,877
Total assets		3,137,119		3,753,896
Total liabilities		53,401		268,862
Stockholders’ equity		3,083,718		3,485,034

Cash Used in Operating Activities

We used net cash of $678,399 in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $353,803 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to increased activities relating to the appeals of the work programs in Bulgaria and costs associated with evaluation of potential acquisitions for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $369,826 compared to net cash used of $745,324 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This decrease was primarily due to decreased expenditures on the Bulgarian project partially offset by an investment in note receivable.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

We have funded our business to date primarily from sales of our common stock through private placements. We did not have any common stock sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash provided by financing activities was $2,981,850.

Future Operating Requirements

The Company has no revenues and has incurred continuous losses from operations and had an accumulated deficit of $14,141,610 at September 30, 2015. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new ventures to increase revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful, therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements require us to make assumptions that may not materialize or that may not be accurate. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including the factors discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: fluctuations in and volatility of the market prices for oil and natural gas products; the ability to produce and transport oil and natural gas; the results of exploration and development drilling and related activities; global economic conditions, particularly in the countries in which we carry on business, especially economic slowdowns; actions by governmental authorities including increases in taxes, legislative and regulatory initiatives related to fracture stimulation activities, changes in environmental and other regulations, and renegotiations of contracts; political uncertainty, including actions by insurgent groups or other conflicts; the negotiation and closing of material contracts; future capital requirements and the availability of financing; estimates and economic assumptions used in connection with our acquisitions; risks associated with drilling, operating and decommissioning wells; actions of third-party co-owners of interests in properties in which we also own an interest; our ability to effectively integrate companies and properties that we acquire; our limited operating history; our history of operating losses; our lack of insurance coverage; and the other factors discussed in other documents that we file with or furnish to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The impact of any one factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as such factors are interdependent upon other factors and our course of action would depend upon our assessment of the future, considering all information then available. In that regard, any statements as to: future oil or natural gas production levels; capital expenditures; the allocation of capital expenditures to exploration and development activities; sources of funding for our capital expenditure programs; drilling of new wells; demand for oil and natural gas products; expenditures and allowances relating to environmental matters; dates by which certain areas will be developed or will come on-stream; expected finding and development costs; future production rates; ultimate recoverability of reserves, including the ability to convert probable and possible reserves to proved reserves; dates by which transactions are expected to close; future cash flows, uses of cash flows, collectability of receivables and availability of trade credit; expected operating costs; changes in any of the foregoing and other statements using forward-looking terminology are forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that the expectations conveyed by such forward-looking statements will, in fact, be realized.

Although we believe that the expectations conveyed by the forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information available to us on the date such forward-looking statements were made, no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity, achievements or financial condition.

Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should recognize that the statements are predictions of future results, which may not occur as anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results, due to the risks and uncertainties described above, as well as others not now anticipated. The foregoing statements are not exclusive and further information concerning us, including factors that potentially could materially affect our financial results, may emerge from time to time. We do not intend to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure of Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of September 30, 2015 (the “Evaluation Date”). This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

We believe that our consolidated financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the periods ended September 30, 2015 fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in all material respects.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
