Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

NOTE 1 –NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Company Organization

Trio Petroleum Corp (“Trio Petroleum,” the “Company,” or “TPET”) is a California-based oil and gas exploration and development company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 19, 2021. The Company is headquartered in Bakersfield, California, with its principal executive offices located at 23823 Malibu Road, Suite 304, Malibu, California 90265.

The Company was formed to acquire, finance, and operate oil and gas exploration, development, and production projects. Since inception, the Company’s asset base has expanded beyond its initial California focus to include interests in the South Salinas Project in Monterey County, California, the Asphalt Ridge Project in Uintah County, Utah, and heavy-oil assets in the Lloydminster region of Saskatchewan, Canada.

Nature of Operations

The Company commenced revenue-generating operations on February 22, 2024, when production was restarted at the McCool Ranch Oil Field in Monterey County, California. Initial revenues were recognized during the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2024. Operations at McCool Ranch were discontinued in May 2025, and all related leases were terminated.

During the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2025, the Company recognized its first revenues from its Saskatchewan assets acquired through the Novacor transaction (see “Novacor Acquisition” below). Revenues from these assets continued throughout the second half of fiscal 2025. As of October 31, 2025, all the Company’s producing wells were located in Saskatchewan.

The Company has shifted its operational emphasis toward jurisdictions and assets with more favorable economic conditions. While California remains part of the Company’s portfolio, rising drilling and operating costs in the state have reduced the economic viability of certain development activities. As a result, the Company has increased its focus on assets in Utah and Canada.

The Company was initially formed to acquire from Trio LLC (“Trio LLC”) an approximate 82.75% working interest in the approximately 9,300-acre South Salinas Project located in Monterey County, California. This interest was subsequently increased to approximately 85.775% in April 2023. In September 2021, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“Trio LLC PSA”) with Trio LLC to acquire the working interest in exchange for $300,000 in cash, a non-interest-bearing note payable of $3,700,000, and 245,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805,Business Combinations. The Company holds an approximate 68.62% net revenue interest in the South Salinas Project after the application of royalties. Trio LLC holds an approximate 3.9% working interest. The Company and Trio LLC are separate and distinct entities. The remaining working interests are owned by two unrelated parties.

As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, no proved reserves had been established for the South Salinas Project. The HV-3A discovery well produced oil following the restart of production testing in March 2024 but is currently idled pending further evaluation of potential operational enhancements.

Formation of Canadian Subsidiary

On March 28, 2025, the Company formed Trio Petroleum Canada Corp. (“Trio Canada”), an Alberta corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to facilitate the acquisition and operation of oil and gas assets in Canada. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer also serve in the same respective roles for Trio Canada, and the Chief Executive Officer serves as its sole director.

Novacor Acquisition (April 2025)

On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Novacor APA”) among the Company, Trio Canada, and Novacor Exploration Ltd. (“Novacor”), pursuant to which Trio Canada agreed to acquire certain oil and gas assets located in the Lloydminster, Saskatchewan heavy-oil region. The acquired assets included working interests in petroleum, natural gas, and mineral rights, along with associated contracts, leases, and permits. The acquisition was completed in two closings, with the final closing occurring on May 22, 2025. The transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805. See Note 5 for additional information.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act and as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As an emerging growth company, the Company may take advantage of certain exemptions from reporting requirements applicable to other public companies, including exemptions from auditor attestation requirements under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced executive compensation disclosures, and delayed adoption of new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for adopting new or revised accounting standards.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Capital Land Acquisition (November 2025)

In November 2025, the Company, through Trio Canada, completed the acquisition of additional heavy-oil assets in the County of Vermilion River, Saskatchewan, from Capital Land. Total consideration consisted of CAD $150,000 in cash and the issuance of 104,227 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The acquired assets included producing wells and certain wells acquired out of receivership. The transaction will be accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805.

Novacor Acquisition (December 2025)

On December 30, 2025, the Company, through Trio Canada, entered into and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Novacor Exploration Ltd. to acquire additional oil and gas assets located in the Lloydminster, Saskatchewan heavy-oil region. The acquired assets include working interests in petroleum, natural gas, and mineral rights, along with associated contracts, leases, and permits. Total consideration consisted of CAD $1,000,000 in cash (approximately US $730,300 based on the exchange rate on the transaction date) and the issuance of 912,875 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The transaction will be accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805. In connection with the acquisition, the Company and Novacor entered into a registration rights agreement providing Novacor with customary piggyback registration rights with respect to the restricted shares issued as consideration.

ATM Offering (January 2026)

On January 9, 2026, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (“Ladenburg”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock from time to time through Ladenburg, acting as sales agent. On the same date, the Company filed a prospectus supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the offer and sale of shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $3,600,000. Under the terms of the ATM Agreement, Ladenburg will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell shares in transactions deemed to be “at-the-market offerings” under Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or by other methods permitted by law and agreed to by the Company. Ladenburg is entitled to compensation of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from each sale of shares under the ATM Agreement. No sales had occurred under the ATM Agreement as of the date the consolidated financial statements were issued

NOTE 2 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

*Basis of Consolidation *

The consolidated financial statements of Trio Petroleum Corp include the accounts of TPET and our wholly owned Canadian subsidiary Trio Canada. All significant intercompany profits, losses, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation in the consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trio Petroleum Corp and its subsidiaries and reflect all significant intercompany balances and transactions eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated balance sheets as of October 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, have been audited by independent registered public accountants. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity-based transactions and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Some of the more significant estimates required to be made by management include estimates of oil and natural gas reserves (when and if assigned) and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom, the carrying value of oil and natural gas properties, accounts receivable, bad debt expense, ARO and the valuation of equity-based transactions. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar. In March 2025, the Company formed Trio Canada, its wholly owned subsidiary, whose functional currency is the Canadian Dollar (“CAD”). Balance sheet accounts of Trio Canada are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date (0.7317 CAD to 1 US dollar as of October 31, 2025). Income and expense accounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the fiscal year (0.7140 CAD to 1 US dollar for the year ended October 31, 2025). Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recognized in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Comprehensive income represents the change in equity from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. As described above, this includes foreign currency translation adjustments. For the year ended October 31, 2025, the Company recorded other comprehensive income of $14,471 related to foreign currency translation adjustments. No such amount was recorded for the year ended October 31, 2024.

Foreign currency gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency, including intercompany transactions, are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as incurred. For the year ended October 31, 2025, the Company recognized a foreign currency transaction loss of $8,840, withno such gain or loss recognized during the comparable period in 2024. This amount is classified within general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company hadno cash equivalents as of October 31, 2025 and 2024.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of payments made in advance for goods or services to be received in future periods. These include prepaid insurance, software subscriptions, and lease-related costs. Prepaid expenses are recorded as current assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit.

During the year ended October 31, 2025, the Company entered into a short-term surface lease agreement for access to land in Saskatchewan, Canada, related to oil and gas development activities, including a well site and access road. In accordance with ASC 842 -Leases and the Company’s lease accounting policy, the full lease payment of CAD $15,535 was made on May 1, 2025 and recorded as a Prepaid Lease Expense. The lease term is 12 months, and the expense is recognized ratably over the lease period. As of October 31, 2025, CAD $9,543 has been recognized in Operating Expenses, with the remaining CAD $10,559 classified as a current asset.

As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, the balances of the prepaids account were $128,856 and $279,274, respectively.

Loan Receivables

Loan receivables are recorded at their outstanding principal balance, net of any allowance for credit losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of loan receivables based on historical experience, current economic conditions, and the creditworthiness of borrowers. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to cover estimated losses; the allowance is determined based on historical loss experience, current economic conditions and specific borrower risk assessments. Adjustments to the allowance are recorded through provision for credit losses in the statement of operations. Interest income on loan receivables is recognized using the effective interest method. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when collection of principal or interest is uncertain. Loan receivables are reviewed periodically for impairment. If a loan is deemed uncollectible, the Company records a charge-off against the allowance for credit losses.

Debt Issuance Costs

Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the Company’s debt have been recorded as a direct reduction against the debt and amortized over the life of the associated debt as a component of interest expense. As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $134,730 and $259,903 in debt issuance costs.

Oil and Gas Assets and Exploration Costs – Successful Efforts

The Company’s projects are in exploration and/or early production stages and the Company began generating revenue from its operations during the quarterly period ended April 30, 2024. It applies the successful efforts method of accounting for crude oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, exploration costs such as exploratory, geological, and geophysical costs, delay rentals and exploratory overhead are expensed as incurred. If an exploratory property provides evidence to justify potential development of reserves, drilling costs associated with the property are initially capitalized, or suspended, pending a determination as to whether a commercially sufficient quantity of proved reserves can be attributed to the area as a result of drilling. At the end of each quarter, management reviews the status of all suspended exploratory property costs considering ongoing exploration activities; in particular, whether the Company is making sufficient progress in its ongoing exploration and appraisal efforts. If management determines that future appraisal drilling or development activities are unlikely to occur, associated exploratory well costs are expensed.

Costs to acquire mineral interests in crude oil and/or natural gas properties, drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves and drill and equip development wells are capitalized. Acquisition costs of unproved leaseholds are assessed for impairment during the holding period and transferred to proven crude oil and/or natural gas properties to the extent associated with successful exploration activities. Significant undeveloped leases are assessed individually for impairment, based on the Company’s current exploration plans, and a valuation allowance is provided if impairment is indicated. Capitalized costs from successful exploration and development activities associated with producing crude oil and/or natural gas leases, along with capitalized costs for support equipment and facilities, are amortized to expense using the unit-of-production method based on proved crude oil and/or natural gas reserves on a field-by-field basis, as estimated by qualified petroleum engineers.

As of October 31, 2025, the Company had seven wells that are producing, all of which are located in the newly acquired Saskatchewan property. The Company expects to add the reserve value of such fields to the Company’s reserve report after a further period of observation and review of the oil production; once this has been determined, it will estimate the necessary depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) for such wells.

Proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties

Unproved oil and natural gas properties have unproved lease acquisition costs, which are capitalized until the lease expires or otherwise until the Company specifically identifies a lease that will revert to the lessor, at which time the Company charges the associated unproved lease acquisition costs to exploration costs.

Unproved oil and natural gas properties are not subject to amortization and are assessed periodically for impairment on a property-by-property basis based on remaining lease terms, drilling results or future development plans. As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, such oil and gas properties were classified as unproved properties and were not subject to DD&A.

Proved oil and natural gas properties include developed and undeveloped reserves that have been confirmed through drilling and production activities. These properties are subject to DD&A, which is calculated using the unit-of-production method based on total proved reserves.

●Proved developed reserves are amortized over the expected production life of the wells.
●Proved undeveloped reserves remain capitalized until development activities commence.
●The Company assesses impairment of proved properties periodically based on commodity prices, production forecasts, and reserve estimates.

As of October 31, 2025, the Company has proved reserves in the newly acquired Saskatchewan properties and expects to add the reserves values of such fields to the Company’s reserve report; once this has been done, it will estimate the necessary DD&A for such wells.

Impairment of Other Long-lived Assets

The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and estimated fair value. With regards to oil and gas properties, this assessment applies to proved properties.

As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no impairment of long-lived assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations

ARO consists of future plugging and abandonment expenses on oil and natural gas properties. In connection with the South Salinas Project (“SSP”) acquisition described above, the Company acquired the plugging and abandonment liabilities associated with six non-producing wells. The fair value of the ARO was recorded as a liability in the period in which the wells were acquired with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of oil and natural gas properties not subject to impairment. The Company plans to utilize the six wellbores acquired in the SSP acquisition in future exploration, production and/or disposal (i.e., disposal of produced water or CO2 by injection) activities. The liability is accreted for the change in its present value each period based on the expected dates that the wellbores will be required to be plugged and abandoned. The capitalized cost of ARO is included in oil and gas properties and is a component of oil and gas property costs for purposes of impairment and, if proved reserves are found, such capitalized costs will be depreciated using the units-of-production method. The asset and liability are adjusted for changes resulting from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original estimate when deemed necessary. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, a gain or loss is recognized.

Components of the changes in ARO for the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2025 are shown below:

ARO, ending balance – October 31, 2023$51,091
Accretion expense2,778

ARO, net of current portion – October 31, 2025$53,869

Revenue Recognition

ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“Topic 606”) requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services; refer to Note 4 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers for additional information.

The Company’s revenue is comprised of revenue from exploration and production activities to produce oil. The Company’s oil is sold to one customer who is a marketer, and payment is received in the month following delivery.

The Company recognizes sales revenues from oil when control transfers to the customer at the time of delivery. Revenue is measured based on the contract price, which may include adjustments for market differentials and downstream costs incurred by the customer, including gathering, transportation or short load fees.

Revenues are recognized for the sale of the Company’s percentage of working interest, adjusted for any incoming and outstanding expenses and oil and gas assessments.

Related Parties

Related parties are directly or indirectly related to the Company, through one or more intermediaries and are in control, controlled by, or under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions. On September 14, 2021, the Company acquired an 82.75% working interest (which was subsequently increased to an 85.775% working interest as of April 2023) in the SSP from Trio LLC in exchange for cash, a note payable to Trio LLC and the issuance of 245,000 shares of common stock. As of the date of the acquisition, Trio LLC owned 45% of the outstanding shares of the Company and was considered a related party. As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, Trio LLC owned less than 1% and 1%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of the Company.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carry forwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company utilizes ASC 740,Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method to compute the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the related financial amounts, using currently enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely than not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. At October 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s net deferred tax asset has been fully reserved.

For uncertain tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold, the Company recognizes the benefit of uncertain tax positions in the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in the statements of operations when a determination is made that such expense is likely. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

The Company’s wholly owned Canadian subsidiary is subject to taxation under Canadian federal and provincial tax laws. The subsidiary’s income tax provision is calculated based on applicable Canadian tax rates, and any differences between U.S. and Canadian tax treatments are considered in the consolidated financial statements. The Company also considers the impact of the U.S.-Canada Tax Treaty in determining its tax obligations, including withholding taxes on intercompany transactions.

Fair Value Measurements

The carrying values of financial instruments comprising cash and cash equivalents, payables, and notes payable-related party approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The notes payable- related party is considered a level 3 measurement. As defined in ASC 820,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). This fair value measurement framework applies to both initial and subsequent measurement.

Level 1:Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2:Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.
Level 3:Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement for nonrecurring fair value measurements of long-lived assets include pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

There are no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with the fair value hierarchy include the initial allocation of the asset acquisition purchase price, including asset retirement obligations, the fair value of oil and natural gas properties and the assessment of impairment.

The fair value measurements and allocation of assets acquired are measured on a nonrecurring basis on the acquisition date using an income valuation technique based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs. Significant inputs used to determine the fair value include estimates of: (i) reserves; (ii) future commodity prices; (iii) operating and development costs; and (iv) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate. The underlying commodity prices embedded in the Company’s estimated cash flows are the product of a process that begins with NYMEX forward curve pricing, adjusted for estimated location and quality differentials, as well as other factors that the Company’s management believes will impact realizable prices. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by the Company’s management at the time of the valuation.

The fair value of additions to the asset retirement obligation liabilities is measured using valuation techniques consistent with the income approach, which converts future cash flows to a single discounted amount. Significant inputs to the valuation include: (i) estimated plug and abandonment cost per well for all oil and natural gas wells and for all disposal wells; (ii) estimated remaining life per well; (iii) future inflation factors; and (iv) the Company’s average credit-adjusted risk-free rate. These assumptions represent Level 3 inputs.

If the carrying amount of its proved oil and natural gas properties, which are assessed for impairment under ASC 360 –Property, Plant and Equipment, exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, the Company will adjust the carrying amount of the oil and natural gas properties to fair value. The fair value of its oil and natural gas properties is determined using valuation techniques consistent with the income and market approach. The factors used to determine fair value are subject to management’s judgment and expertise and include, but are not limited to, recent sales prices of comparable properties, the present value of future cash flows, net of estimated operating and development costs using estimates of proved reserves, future commodity pricing, future production estimates, anticipated capital expenditures, and various discount rates commensurate with the risk and current market conditions associated with the expected cash flow projected. These assumptions represent Level 3 inputs.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net loss per share is computed in the same manner as basic net loss per share, as the inclusion of potential common shares would be anti-dilutive.

The following common share equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive:

Total potentially dilutive securities16,93719,176
(1)Represents potentially dilutive shares based on 171,994 and 191,994 outstanding, equity classified warrants, respectively.

Environmental Expenditures

The operations of the Company have been, and may in the future be, affected from time to time to varying degrees by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future reclamation and site restoration costs. Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company vary greatly and are not predictable. The Company’s policy is to meet or, if possible, surpass standards set by relevant legislation by application of technically proven and economically feasible measures.

Environmental expenditures that relate to ongoing environmental and reclamation programs are charged against earnings as incurred or capitalized and amortized depending on their future economic benefits. All of these types of expenditures incurred since inception have been charged against earnings due to the uncertainty of their future recoverability. Estimated future reclamation and site restoration costs, when the ultimate liability is reasonably determinable, are charged against earnings over the estimated remaining life of the related business operation, net of expected recoveries.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

All recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements have been deemed to be not applicable or immaterial to the Company.

Reclassification of Expenses

Certain amounts in the prior periods presented have been reclassified to the current period financial statement presentation. This reclassification has no effect on previously reported net income.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after October 31, 2025 through the date of the filing of this report. See Note 11 for such events and transactions.

NOTE 3 –GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS

As of October 31, 2025, the Company had $882,162 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $785,902. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and, as of October 31, 2025, had an accumulated deficit of $27,355,812.

To date, the Company has funded its operations primarily through equity and debt financings, including:

●Proceeds from the issuance of common stock and financing from certain investors
●Net proceeds from its initial public offering (“IPO”) in April 2023
●Convertible note financings totaling $2,371,500 in October and December 2023
●An unsecured promissory note of $125,000 from the Company’s former CEO in 2024
●Gross proceeds of $543,500 from promissory notes with investors in 2024
●Gross proceeds of $1,440,000 from convertible debt financing in 2024
●Net proceeds of approximately $4,650,000 under an “at-the-market” agreement entered into in September 2024
●Gross proceeds of $606,000 from a private placement of convertible debt financing in April 2025
●Gross proceeds of $1,020,000 from a private placement of convertible debt financing in August 2025

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will continue to operate and meet its obligations over the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. However, the Company has experienced recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows, and its current cash resources are not sufficient to meet projected operating and capital requirements for the next twelve months.

Management plans to address this liquidity shortfall by seeking additional capital through the issuance of equity securities, debt financing, or other strategic arrangements. While the Company has been successful in raising capital to date, there can be no assurance that future financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 4 –REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Disaggregation of Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The following table disaggregates revenue by significant product type for the periods below:

As of October 31,As of October 31,

Oil sales$398,734$213,204
Total revenues from customers$398,734$213,204

There wereno significant contract liabilities or transaction price allocations to any remaining performance obligations as of October 31, 2025 or 2024.

Significant concentrations of credit risk

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from oil and gas sales in California, United States, and Saskatchewan, Canada. For the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024,100% of total revenue comes from customers located in these regions. Changes in state and provincial regulations, market conditions, or environmental policies could significantly impact the Company’s financial performance. Additionally, fluctuations in commodity pricing and regional demand trends within California and Saskatchewan may affect future revenues.

During the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred aggregated exploration costs of $45,594 and $177,416, respectively. These expenses primarily consisted of exploratory, geological, and geophysical costs, and were expensed in the consolidated statements of operations during the applicable periods.

For capitalized costs, the Company incurred approximately $0.9 million and approximately $1.2 million for the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively; these expenses were related to drilling exploratory wells and acquisition costs, both of which were capitalized and are reflected in the balance of the oil and gas property as of October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Leases

As of October 31, 2025, the Company holds interests in various leases related to the unproved properties of the South Salinas Project (see Note 5). Two of these leases are held with the same lessor:

●Lease 1 – 8,417 acres; this lease was amended on May 27, 2022, to extend the then-active force majeure status for an uncontested twelve-month period, during which the Company was not required to demonstrate the existence of force majeure conditions. As consideration, the Company paid a one-time, non-refundable fee of $252,512, which was capitalized and included in the oil and gas property balance as of October 31, 2022. The extension period commenced on June 19, 2022. The force majeure status has since been extinguished by the drilling of the HV-1 well. The lease remains valid due to ongoing operations and oil production at the HV-3A well.
●Lease 2 – 160 acres; this lease is held by delay rental and is renewed every three years. Until drilling commences, the Company is required to make annual delay rental payments of $30 per acre. The Company is in compliance and has prepaid the rental for the period October 2024 through October 2025.

During February and March 2023, the Company entered into additional leases with two groups of lessors:

●Group 1 – 360 acres; these leases have a 20-year term and require annual rental payments of $25 per acre.
●Group 2 – 307.75 acres; these leases also have a 20-year term, with annual rental payments of $30 per acre.

During the current fiscal year, the Company made a strategic decision to abandon these additional leases. As a result, all associated exploration and development costs—including capitalized costs for support equipment and facilities—have been expensed in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The total expense recognized in connection with this abandonment was $111,149 and is reflected in the Company’s statement of operations for the year-to-date period.

In October 2023, the Company entered into the McCool Ranch Purchase Agreement with Trio LLC for the purchase of a 21.918315% working interest in the McCool Ranch Oil Field, located in Monterey County near the Company’s flagship South Salinas Project. The Company initially recorded a payment of $100,000 upon execution of the agreement, at which time Trio LLC began refurbishment operations on the San Ardo WD-1 water disposal well to assess its ability to serve the produced water needs for the assets.

On May 27, 2025, the Company made the decision to terminate the McCool Ranch Oil Field leases; accordingly, all capitalized costs related to the acquisition, refurbishment, and production restart (including costs for support equipment and facilities) totaling $500,614 have been written off and expensed in the statement of operations for the year ended October 31, 2025.

The Company will not make any further payments under the McCool Ranch Purchase Agreement, and all previously recorded liabilities associated with the project have been recognized as an expense. The Company no longer holds any interest in the McCool Ranch Oil Field, and the abandonment decision will be reflected in the financial statements.

Optioned Assets – Asphalt Ridge Leasehold Acquisition & Development Option Agreement

On November 10, 2023, the Company entered into the ARLO Agreement with HSO for a term of nine months which gives the Company the exclusive right to acquire up to a 20% interest in a 960 acre drilling and production program in the Asphalt Ridge leases for $2,000,000, which may be invested in tranches by the Company, with an initial tranche closing for an amount no less than $500,000 and paid within seven days subsequent to HSO providing certain required items to the Company.

On December 29, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the ARLO Agreement, whereby the Company funded $200,000 of the $500,000 payable by the Company to HSO at the Initial Closing, in advance of HSO satisfying certain required items for a 2% interest in the leases; such funds are to be used by HSO solely for the building of roads and related infrastructure in furtherance of the development of the leases. As of October 31, 2025, the Company has paid a total of $225,000 to HSO in costs related to infrastructure and has obtained a 2.25% interest in the leases; such costs are capitalized costs and are reflected in the balance of the oil and gas property as of October 31, 2025.

Per the most recent amendment to the ARLO Agreement signed in April 2025, the Company had until May 10, 2025 to pay HSO an additional $1,775,000 to exercise an option for the remaining 17.75% working interest in the initial 960 acres of the Asphalt Ridge Leases. The option expired after the reporting period on May 10, 2025 due to the Company’s failure to exercise it before the expiration date. As a result, the Company forfeited any further right to acquire the additional 17.75% working interest but will retain its existing 2.25% interest in the leases.

●Second Closing – May 22, 2025: Title to the remaining Novacor Assets was transferred, and the Company paid $325,000 in cash.

The Company has accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition under ASC 805 –*Business Combinations;*the total capitalized cost of the Novacor Assets was $1,406,081, comprising:

●$333,400 in cash payments, including $8,400 in capitalizable Canadian Provincial Sales Tax (“PST”)
●$747,681 in equity consideration, based on a fair value of $1.42 per share
●$325,000 in deferred consideration paid at the Second Closing

Following the closings, operating costs for the Novacor Assets have been and will be maintained at levels consistent with the auditor’s report for the 18-month period prior to acquisition, unless otherwise agreed upon. After two years, operating costs will remain competitive with other operators in the region; Novacor will serve as the on-site operator and perform all work and services under the Novacor APA and Trio Canada may terminate Novacor’s operational role with 30 days’ prior written notice.

NOTE 8 –INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts calculated for income tax purposes.

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets are summarized below.

As of October 31, · As of October 31,
2025 · 2024
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carry forwards$960,000$1,699,000
Total deferred tax asset960,0001,699,000
Valuation allowance(960,000)(1,699,000)
Net deferred tax asset$-$-

As of October 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had approximately $960,000 and $1,669,000, respectively, in net operating loss carry-forwards for federal and state income tax reporting (tax effected) purposes. During fiscal 2025, the Company also formed Trio Canada, its wholly owned subsidiary, which generated approximately $30,000 (USD) of net income, which has been excluded from the U.S. tax provision and considered immaterial.

On November 3, 2025, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Trio Petroleum Canada Corp.

In connection with the acquisition, Trio Canada paid CAD $150,000 in cash, and the Company issued 104,227 restricted shares of its common stock to Capital Land. Due to regulatory requirements of the Alberta Energy Regulator (“AER”), the Company arranged for all applicable licenses associated with the acquired assets to be transferred to Novacor Exploration Ltd. (“Novacor”), an experienced operator with whom the Company has an existing commercial relationship. Novacor utilizes Capital Land as its AER agent. In consideration for Capital Land’s services as AER agent, the Company granted Capital Land a 1% gross overriding royalty on the mineral rights associated with the acquired assets for so long as such services continue. The Capital Land acquisition will be accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805-50, with the purchase price allocated to the acquired mineral leasehold interests and related rights based on their relative fair values as of the acquisition date.

The transaction will be accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805-50, with the purchase price allocated to the acquired assets based on their relative fair values as of the acquisition date.
