Section 2 – Financial Information
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
As previously reported on the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 24, 2006, Ivanhoe Energy Inc. (the “Company”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Yukon Territory, completed a series of transactions on February 18, 2006 pursuant to an Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated as of February 18, 2006 whereby the Company re-acquired a 40% participating interest in the Kongnan oilfield in Dagang, Hebei Province, China. The material terms of the Agreement were reported in the Company’s initial 8-K.
The acquisition of the participating interest pursuant to the Agreement is considered significant under Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933. This Form 8-K/A amends the initial 8-K to include Item 9.01(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired and Item 9.01(b) Pro Forma Financial Information which were not included in the initial 8-K pursuant to Item 9.01(a)(4) and (b)(2) of Form 8-K.
With the exception of historical information, certain matters discussed in this Form 8-K/A are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Certain statements contained in this Form 8-K/A, including statements which may contain words such as “could”, “should”, “expect”, “believe”, “will” and similar expressions and statements relating to matters that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. Such statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause our actual results, performances or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our goals will be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements herein include, but are not limited to, our ability to raise capital as and when required, the timing and extent of changes in prices for oil and gas, competition, environmental risks, drilling and operating risks, uncertainties about the estimates of reserves and the potential success of heavy-to–light and gas-to-liquids development technologies, the prices of goods and services, the availability of drilling rigs and other support services, legislative and government regulations, political and economic factors in countries in which we operate and implementation of our capital investment program.
The following should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and pro forma financial information contained herein and in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, along with the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in such Form 10-K, as such discussions may be modified or supplemented by subsequent reports that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any terms used but not defined in the following discussion have the same meaning given to them in the Form 10-K. The unaudited condensed pro forma consolidated financial information included in this Form 8-K/A have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada. The impact of

 


 

significant differences between Canadian and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles on the unaudited condensed pro forma consolidated financial information is disclosed in Note 3 to the unaudited proforma financial information. Forward looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
