The condensed consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the above listed subsidiaries as of the dates and for the periods as indicated. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of these financial statements. On September 21, 2010 the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, MCC Merger, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”), formed previous to the merger, and Maple Carpenter Creek Holdings, Inc. (“The Target Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the Merger Agreement, as closed on September 23, 2010, Acquisition Sub merged with and into the Target Company, with the Target Company remaining as the surviving corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).  Going forward, the Company will be a holding company parent of the Target Company, and the Company’s business operations following the Merger will be those of the Target Company.

The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of April 30th.

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated in accordance with ASC 820, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in the Colombian peso. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

The accounting policies followed by MMEX Mining Corporation are set forth in the Company’s financial statements that are a part of its April 30, 2011, Form 10K and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the three and six months ended October 31, 2011, contained herein.

The financial information included herein as of October 31, 2011, and for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, has been presented without an audit, pursuant to accounting principles for the interim financial information generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the period.

Organization
MMEX Mining Corporation (the Company or “MMEX”) was formed in the State of Nevada on May 19, 2005 as Inkie Entertainment Group, Inc., for the purpose of engaging in the production, distribution and marketing of filmed entertainment products. On January 15, 2008, the Company changed its name to Quantum Information, Inc. In January 2009, the Company announced that it would transition out of the filmed entertainment products business and into the coal business. As part of that transition, on January 14, 2009, the Company sold all of its assets in exchange for the surrender to the Company of 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and the assumption of all of the Company’s liabilities. The Company also changed its name to MGMT Energy, Inc. on February 5, 2009 and to Management Energy, Inc. on May 28, 2009 to better reflect the Company’s business focus. On September 23, 2010, the Company, through a reverse merger, acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Maple Carpenter Creek Holdings, Inc., (“MCCH”) a Delaware Corporation, organized on October 15, 2009 as a holding Company with an 80% interest in Maple Carpenter Creek, LLC (“MCC”), which in turn owns a 95% interest in the subsidiary, Carpenter Creek, LLC (“CC”), and a 98.12% interest in Armadillo Holdings Group Corp. (“AHGC”), which in turn owned at October 31, 2011 a 94.6% interest in Armadillo Mining Corp. (“AMC”). The non-controlling interest of 1.88% in AHGC was subsequently acquired by MCCH on December 21, 2010 in exchange for 31,334 shares of MMEX. On February 22, 2011, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change the corporate name from Management Energy, Inc. to MMEX Mining Corporation.

Nature of Business
Our current strategy is to pursue various coal exploration projects in Colombia and expand to other minerals in other South American countries with development partners.
 
Exploration Stage Company
The Company is currently an exploration stage company. As an exploration stage enterprise, the Company discloses the deficit accumulated during the exploration stage and the cumulative statements of operations and cash flows from inception to the current balance sheet date. The Company has incurred net losses of $13,462,682 and used net cash in operations of $9,391,220 for the period from inception (May 23, 2007) through October 31, 2011. An entity remains in the exploration stage until such time as proven or probable reserves have been established for its deposits. Upon the location of commercially mineable reserves, the Company plans to prepare for mineral extraction and enter the development stage. To date, the exploration stage of the Company’s operations consists of contracting with geologists who sample and assess the mining viability of the Company’s claims.

Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its aforementioned subsidiaries. See Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (“ASC 810”) below for additional information on Non-controlling interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Property and equipment
Equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset as follows:
 
 
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Machinery and equipment 5 years
Software and hardware 5 years
 
Maintenance and repairs will be charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

The Company will assess the recoverability of equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

Fair value of financial instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company had no other items that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

Asset retirement obligations
The Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which the asset is acquired and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, a gain or loss is recognized. No asset retirement obligation has been recognized as of October 31, 2011.

Advertising and promotion
All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. $1,075 and $0 were incurred for both the six months and three months ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Income taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Basic and diluted loss per share
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

Stock-based compensation
The Company adopted FASB guidance on stock based compensation upon inception at April 23, 2009. Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. For the periods presented, there were no share-based payments to employees.

In December of 2004, the FASB issued a standard which applies to transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services and also applies to liabilities an entity may incur for goods or services that are based on the fair value of those equity instruments.  For any unvested portion of previously issued and outstanding awards, compensation expense is required to be recorded based on the previously disclosed methodology and amounts.  Prior periods presented are not required to be restated.  The Company adopted this standard upon inception on May 23, 2007 and applied the standard using the modified prospective method.  

Issuance of Shares for Non-Cash Consideration
The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably determinable. The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of the standards issued by the FASB.  The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined as the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete.  In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

Uncertain tax positions
Effective upon the Company’s fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, the Company adopted new standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company’s income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities.
 
The assessment of the Company’s tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various filing positions.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-18 regarding improving comparability by eliminating diversity in practice about the treatment of modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30 – Receivable – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (“Subtopic 310-30”). Furthermore, the amendments clarify guidance about maintaining the integrity of a pool as the unit of accounting for acquired loans with credit deterioration.  Loans accounted for individually under Subtopic 310-30 continue to be subject to the troubled debt restructuring accounting provisions within Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors.  The amendments in this Update are effective for modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30 occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010.  The amendments are to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 regarding fair value measurements and disclosures and improvement in the disclosure about fair value measurements.  This ASU requires additional disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of fair value measurements, including a description of the reasons for the transfers.  Further, this ASU requires additional disclosures for the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements.  This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, which provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions. ASU No. 2009-13 is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not available, an entity may use the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be considered level 1 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. The adoption of this ASU did not impact the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—Overall ("ASC 105-10"). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout these consolidated financials have been updated for the Codification.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “ASC”). The ASC has become the single source of non-governmental accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB in the preparation of financial statements. The Company adopted the ASC as of July 1, 2009. The ASC does not change GAAP and did not have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company applies FASB ASC 810, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – and Amendment to ARB No. 51 (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 requires non-controlling interests (previously referred to as non-controlling interests) to be reported as components of equity and net income or loss, which changes the accounting for transactions with non-controlling interest holders. Prior to January 1, 2009 the non-controlling interest had been reduced to zero, therefore we had no beginning balance of the non-controlling at May 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Going Concern

Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $13,462,682 and a working capital deficit of $3,390,377 at October 31, 2011, and have reported negative cash flows from operations since inception. In addition, we do not currently have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months, and we expect to have ongoing requirements for capital investment to implement our business plan. Finally, our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive environment in which we operate.

Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through private debt and equity financing, as well as capital contributions by our subsidiaries’ partners, and we expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, indicate that we may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

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.

Note 3 – Related Party Transactions

During the period from May 1, 2009 through April 30, 2011, Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of our board of directors and shareholder, made several payments on behalf of the Company. The Company reimbursed Mr. Richards a portion of these payments but as of October 31, 2011 a balance of $31,633 remains outstanding.

On September 4, 2010, MCCH entered into an employment agreement with the Company’s CEO, Jack W. Hanks for a two year term, automatically renewable for one year terms thereafter, at an annual compensation of $300,000 per year.

On September 4, 2010, MCCH entered into a consulting agreement with Bruce N. Lemons, one of the Company’s two directors, for a two year term, automatically renewable for one year terms thereafter, at an annual compensation of $170,000 per year.

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreements with unaffiliated investors and with each of the Maple Gas Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Maple Resources Corporation, which is 100% owned by the Company’s CEO, an Irrevocable Trust, of which the Company’s CEO is the trustee, and BNL Family Partners of which one of the Company’s Directors, Bruce N. Lemons is a partner, for the issuance of a convertible debentures in the amount of $25,000.  The promissory notes carry a 25% interest rate, mature on January 27, 2012 and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at the holders’ option at $0.10 per common share. The holder may accelerate repayment of the note upon sale of the Carpenter Creek prospect.  In addition, the Company will issue warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at the time of repayment or conversion of the note equal to ten warrant shares for every dollar value of the principal and interest, at an exercise price of $.10 per share on or before three years from the repayment or conversion date.  These convertible debentures were issued to each of the affiliated investors at the same price as that paid by the unaffiliated investors in the private offering.  On March 23, 2011, these notes along with their accrued interest were paid in full.

For the period from inception (May 23, 2007) through October 31, 2011, there has been contributions of capital from members of $7,696,652 and contributions of capital from shareholders of $343,139.

Common stock

On September 23, 2010 the Company issued a subscription payable for 15,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the merger with MCCH. The shares were valued at par value, resulting in a total subscription payable of $15,000 at October 31, 2010.  On January 11, 2011, the Board of Directors cancelled the subscription payable.
 
On October 8, 2010 the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock to The Maple Gas Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Maple Resources Corporation, which is 100% owned by the Company’s CEO pursuant to the merger with MCCH on September 23, 2010. The shares were valued at par value, resulting in a $25,000 adjustment to additional paid in capital in accordance with the accounting for reverse acquisition under ASC 805-10-40.

On October 8, 2010 the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock to AAM Investments, LLC, affiliated with one of the Company’s Directors, Bruce N. Lemons, pursuant to the merger with MCCH on September 23, 2010. The shares were valued at par value, resulting in a $25,000 adjustment to additional paid in capital in accordance with the accounting for reverse acquisitions under ASC 805-10-40.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, “we,” “us” and “our” refer to MMEX Mining Corporation, a Nevada corporation.  The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation provide information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our financial condition and results of operations.  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and all our other filings, including Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) through the date of this report.

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes both historical and forward-looking statements, which include information relating to future events, future financial performance, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and regulations.  Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements.  Such statements are intended to operate as “forward-looking statements” of the kind permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, incorporated in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  That legislation protects such predictive statements by creating a “safe harbor” from liability in the event that a particular prediction does not turn out as anticipated. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and will probably not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved.  Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or our management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements.  You should review carefully the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of certain of the risks that could cause our actual results to differ from those expressed or suggested by the forward-looking statements.
 
The inclusion of the forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us, or any other person, that such forward-looking statements will be achieved.  You should be aware that any forward-looking statement made by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or elsewhere, speaks only as of the date on which we make it. We undertake no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  In light of the foregoing, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview and Outlook

On May 25, 2011, the Board of Directors approved a 1 for 10 reverse stock split of its common stock.  All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of shares of common stock and loss per share have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

MMEX Mining Corporation has interests in coal prospects in the United States and South America.  We are currently considered to be an exploration stage corporation because we are engaged in the search for coal deposits and are not engaged in the exploitation of a coal deposit.  We will be in the exploration stage until we discover commercially viable coal deposits. In an exploration stage company, management devotes most of its activities to acquiring and exploring mineral properties.

On January 20, 2011 the Company executed an exclusive option agreement to purchase a 50% interest in C.I. Hunza Coal, Ltd. (Hunza), a Colombian limited liability corporation that holds various mining interests in Colombia.  Going forward, we plan to focus the company efforts in acquiring metallurgical coal assets in the country of Colombia and other Latin America countries.

Hunza Project:  On January 20, 2011 the Company executed an exclusive option agreement to purchase a 50% interest in C.I. Hunza Coal, Ltd. (Hunza), a Colombian limited liability corporation that holds various mining concessions in the Boyacá Province of east-central Colombia. The coal prospects in the Hunza concessions are mid-volatility metallurgical or coking coal. We have commissioned a technical report in accordance with National Instrument (NI) 43-101 specifications.  Based on the report, the in-place coal tonnage estimate for the property is in the range of 45 to 50 metric tons. The Company is undertaking a drilling program and   until the drilling has been performed and the results analyzed, the estimates presented herein cannot be categorized as estimates of a coal resource under the standards of the 43-101 guidelines.

Development Strategy

Our current strategy is to focus on the acquisition of metallurgical coal assets in Colombia and other Latin American countries. We intend to sell our Carpenter Creek project. We believe the benefits of this strategy include reduced capital requirements on the Company, and the ability to access industry technical development experience and marketing expertise.

Merger with Maple Carpenter Creek Holdings, Inc

On September 21, 2010, MMEX Mining Corporation, Inc entered into a merger agreement with Maple Carpenter Creek Holdings, Inc. (“MCCH”).  MCCH is engaged in the development of both thermal and metallurgical coal projects in the U.S. and Colombia.  Under the terms of the merger agreement, MCCH merged with a wholly owned subsidiary of MMEX Mining Corporation in exchange for the issuance of 6,500,000 shares of MMEX Mining Corporation common stock to the owners of MCCH, of which 5,000,000 shares were issued on October 8, 2010 and 1,500,000 shares were presented as common stock payable.  On January 11, 2011, the Board of Directors, through a Unanimous Written Consent of the Board of Directors issued the remaining 1,500,000 in accordance with the merger agreement.  The Company reversed the subscription payable resulting in a $15,000 adjustment to common stock payable. The owners of MCCH also were granted the right to receive an additional 1,500,000 shares of common stock as contingent consideration to vest on certain milestones defined in the definitive merger agreement.  On September 13, 2011, the Board of Directors, through a Unanimous Written Consent of the Board of Directors issued 1,000,000 shares of the contingent consideration.

As we continue to expand our business and implement our business strategy, our current monthly cash flow requirements will exceed our near term cash flow from operations. Our available cash resources and anticipated cash flow from operations are insufficient to satisfy our anticipated costs associated with new project development. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations in future periods to satisfy our capital requirements. Therefore, we will have to continue to rely on external financing activities, including the sale of our equity securities, to satisfy our capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Due, in part, to our lack of historical earnings, our prior success in attracting additional funding has been limited to transactions in which our equity is used as currency. In light of the availability of this type of financing, and the lack of alternative proposals, our board of directors has determined that the continued use of our equity for these purposes may be necessary if we are to sustain operations. Equity financings of the type we have been required to pursue are dilutive to our stockholders and may adversely impact the market price for our shares. However, we have no commitments for borrowings or additional sales of equity, the precise terms upon which we may be able to attract additional funding is not known at this time, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in consummating any such future financing transactions on terms satisfactory to us, or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued disclosure guidance for "critical accounting policies." The SEC defines "critical accounting policies" as those that require the application of management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.  Our significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to these financial statements.

Results of Operations

Revenues:

We are currently in the exploration stage and have not yet begun to generate revenues.

Exploration and development:

Exploration and development costs were $1,894 for the six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to $253,736 for the six months ended October 31, 2010, a decrease of $251,842. The decrease was due to exploration and development being curtailed until the complete acquisition of our mining option.

General and administrative:

General and administrative expenses were $403,600 for the six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to $462,980 for the six months ended October 31, 2010, a decrease of $59,380. The decrease is due to focus on our acquisition of our Colombian mining activity.

Payroll and taxes:
 
Payroll and taxes expense was $247,571 for the six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to $337,795 for the six months ended October 31, 2010, a decrease of $90,224. The decrease was primarily due to decreased staff once we eliminated our U.S. operations.

Professional fees:

Professional fees expense was $164,662 for the six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to $600,757 for the six months ended October 31, 2010, a decrease of $436,095. The decrease was due to reduced legal, accounting, and financial services expended on our reverse acquisition merger agreement.

Depreciation and amortization:

Depreciation and amortization expense was $2,395 for the six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to $3,587 for the six months ended October 31, 2010, a decrease of $1,192. The decrease was due to the disposition of office equipment.

Net operating loss:

Net operating loss for the six months ended October 31, 2011 was $820,122 or $0.07 per share compared to a net operating loss of $1,658,855 for the six months ended October 31, 2010, or $0.28 per share, a decrease of $838,733. Net operating loss decreased primarily as a result of our elimination of U.S. operations and expansion of our operations to Latin America during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011.

Other expense:

We reported impairment expense of $932,454 for the six months ended October 31, 2011.  This was incurred on the Hunza property based on the uncertainty of recouping our investment.  Interest expense was $1,169,009 and $72,903 for the six months ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase of $1,096,106 was due to debt issuance costs incurred.

Non-controlling interests in loss of consolidated subsidiaries:

Non-controlling interests in loss of consolidated subsidiaries represented approximately $79,005 and $267,888 of the total losses for the six months ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, a decrease of $188,883.

Net loss:

We recorded a net loss of $2,846,231 or $0.25 per share, for the six months ended October 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $1,463,870, or $.24 per share for the six months ended October 31, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of operating capital has been provided from private sales of our common stock, preferred stock, partnership capital contributions, and debt financing. At October 31, 2011, we had a negative working capital position of $3,390,377.

On January 28, 2011 and February 1, 2011, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D thereunder, we completed the closing of 1-year Convertible Note to a group of high net worth investors for an aggregate of $514,900.  The notes carried a 25% interest rate, maturity on the first anniversary date of the note and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at the holders’ option at $1.00 per common share. In addition, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at the time of repayment or conversion of the note equal to ten warrant shares for every dollar value of the principal and interest, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share on or before three years from the repayment or conversion date.  $489,900 of these debentures were paid in full on March 23, 2011.

On March 22, 2011 the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock ( the “Preferred Stock”) to an unrelated party in exchange for an investment of $1,000,000.  The shares may be converted into the Company’s common shares at $0.40 per common share.  The Preferred Stock carry a 10% cumulative dividend, that is being reported as interest due to the classification of the preferred stock, and have a mandatory redemption feature on the earlier of March 1, 2016 or on a change of control transaction.  The investment is collateralized with a security interest in 2,500,000 MMEX Mining Corporation common stock shares.

On April 25, 2011, the Company closed a note purchase agreement with various investors pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of $520,000 notes in a private placement transaction.  The notes are due and payable on or before October 14, 2011 and carry a 25% interest rate.   The computed interest of $130,000 was added to the balance of the note.  The note is convertible upon default at the option of the holder into our common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.40, subject to adjustment for stock splits and combinations.  In addition, the Company issued 1,062,500 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $.80 per share on or before three years from the repayment or conversion date. On October 14, 2011, $62,500 of the notes plus interest were converted into common stock, the remaining $743,750 of notes and interest were extended to April, 14, 2012.  As consideration for the extension, the Company issued 989,188 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $.20 per share on or before April 25, 2014.

On May 9, 2011, the Company closed a note purchase agreement with various investors pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of $160,000 notes in a private placement transaction.  The notes are due and payable on or before October 14, 2011 and carry a 25% interest rate.   The note is convertible upon default at the option of the holder into our common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.40, subject to adjustment for stock splits and combinations.  In addition, the Company issued 250,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $.80 per share on or before three years from the repayment or conversion date.

On June 30, and August 8, 2011, the Company issued 360,000 shares of Armadillo Mining Corporation Preferred Stock to five unrelated parties in exchange for an investment of $360,000.  The Preferred Stock carry a 25% cumulative dividend and have a mandatory redemption feature on December 31, 2011 at a price of $1.25 per share.  In addition, the Company issued 360,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.60 per share on or before three years from the repayment or conversion date.

On September 9, 2011, the Company closed a note purchase agreement with an accredited investor pursuant to which the Company sold a $300,000 note in a private placement transaction. The note is due and payable on September 19, 2012, carry a 25% interest rate due in full at issuance. The computed interest of $75,000 was added to the balance of the note and recorded as additional debt discount.  The note is secured with 1,000,000 of the Company's common stock.

On October 28, 2011, the Company closed a note purchase agreement with an accredited investor pursuant to which the Company sold a $500,000 note in a private placement transaction.

The computed interest of $125,000 was added to the balance of the note and recorded as additional debt discount.  The note is secured with 1,665,000 of the Company's common stock.

As we attempt to expand exploration activities and develop our international operations, we expect to continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations in amounts not now determinable, and will be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings, preferred stock offerings, and debt borrowings to the extent necessary to provide working capital. We have and expect to continue to have substantial capital expenditure and working capital needs. We do not now have funds sufficient to fund our operations at their current level for the next twelve months. We need to raise additional cash to fund our operations and implement our business plan. We expect that the additional financing will (if available) take the form of a private placement of equity, although we may be constrained to obtain additional debt financing in lieu thereof. We are maintaining an on-going effort to locate sources of additional funding, without which we will not be able to remain a viable entity. No financing arrangements are currently under contract, and there are no assurances that we will be able to obtain adequate financing. If we are able to obtain the financing required to remain in business, eventually achieving operating profits will require commencement of operations to generate revenues or drastically reducing expenses from their current levels or both. If we are able to obtain the required financing to remain in business, future operating results depend upon a number of factors that are outside of our control.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Future Obligations

Management projects working capital needs to be approximately $6,000,000 over the next twelve months to complete its acquisition of current mining contracts, corporate overhead, and continue as a reporting company.  Management believes that current cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to meet these anticipated capital requirements.  Such projections have been based on remaining contractual requirements and general overhead.  We will be forced to raise additional capital through the issuance of new shares, the exercise of outstanding warrants, or reduce our current overhead.  However, any projections of future cash needs and cash flows are subject to substantial uncertainty.  We would be required to renegotiate our current contracts until such time as necessary funds are secured.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not required by smaller reporting companies.

Item 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Jack W. Hanks, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the evaluation, Mr. Hanks concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to us that is required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief financial officer, or person performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, for the following reasons:

·  
The Company does not have an independent board of directors or audit committee or adequate segregation of duties;
·  
All of our financial reporting is carried out by our financial consultant;
·  
We do not have an independent body to oversee our internal controls over financial reporting and lack segregation of duties due to the limited nature and resources of the Company.

We plan to rectify these weaknesses by implementing an independent board of directors and hiring additional accounting personnel once we have additional resources to do so.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

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