Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc. (the "Company") was originally incorporated in Colorado in April 1991 under the name Snow Runner (USA), Inc. The Company was the general partner of Snow Runner (USA) Ltd., a Colorado limited partnership to sell proprietary snow skates under the name "Sled Dogs" which was dissolved in August 1992. In late 1993, the Company relocated its operations to Minnesota and in January 1994 changed our name to Snow Runner, Inc. In November 1994 we changed our name to the Sled Dogs Company. On November 5, 1997, we filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In September 1998, we emerged from protection of Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In May, 1999, we changed our state of domicile to Nevada and our name to XDOGS.COM, Inc. On July 22, 2005, the Board of Directors and a majority of the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change the Company's name to Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., and to increase the authorized number of shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 1,000,000,000 shares,  par value of $0.001, and engage in the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties.

Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., ("the Company") is currently in the process of raising funds to acquire oil and gas properties and related oilfield technologies, which the Company plans to develop into commercial applications.

On July 7, 2006, the Company purchased all the outstanding shares of Ultrasonic Mitigation Technologies, Inc.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007
(Unaudited)
 
On September 22, 2007 the Company entered into an agreement with respect to granting Oiltek, Inc. the right to market Avalon's intellectual property and providing to Oiltek, Inc. $50,000 in exchange for a 78.6% interest in Oiltek. Oiltek is consolidated in these financial statements with a minority interest.

On August 11, 2008, the Company increased it’s working interest from 2.5% to 7.5% in the Grace #2 well in East Chandler Field in Oklahoma.  The Company also acquired a 10% working interest  and a 13,825% net revenue in certain of the assets (the “Bedford Assets”) of Bedford Energy, Inc. (the “Bedford Acquisition”) for consideration totaling  $2,000,000.  This consideration originally consisted of $1,000,000 in cash, $750,000 in a note payable, and issued 2,500,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share.   In December 2008, the terms of the transaction were revised as follows:  The Company would pay a total of $900,000 in cash (reduced from $1,000,000 in the original agreement), and  provide a note in the amount of $400,000 (reduced from $750,000 in the original agreement).

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Ultrasonic Mitigation Technologies, Inc.; Intelli-Well Technologies, Inc. and Leak Location Technologies, Inc. along with  75.6 % owned Oiltek, Inc. All significant inter-company items have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Going Concern

The December 31, 2008, financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred a loss of $23,844,763  from inception through December 31, 2008, and has a working capital deficiency  of $830,409   and shareholder’s equity of $3,055,713 , respectively, at December 31, 2008. The Company currently has minimal revenue generating operations and expects to incur substantial operating expenses in order to expand its business. As a result, the Company expects to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might become necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Basis of Accounting

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses when incurred.

Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on deposit, certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and investment grade commercial paper that are readily convertible into cash and purchased with original maturities of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash balances at several financial institutions. Accounts at the institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.

Investments

The Company classifies its debt and marketable securities into held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale categories. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Debt securities for which the Company does not have the intent or ability to hold to maturity are classified as available for sale. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded as either short-term or long-term on the balance sheet based on contractual maturity date and are stated at amortized cost. Marketable securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings. Debt and marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair market value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included in the determination of comprehensive income and reported in shareholder's equity.

The fair value of substantially all securities is determined by quoted market prices. Gains or losses on securities sold are based on the specific identification method. As of December 31, 2008, all investments are considered to be available-for-sale for financial reporting purposes.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable, and long-term debt. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of notes payable and long-term debt approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates.

Accounts Receivable

Management periodically assesses the collectability of the Company's accounts receivable. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made. All of the Company's accounts receivable are concentrated in the oil industry and are believed to be fully collectable.
 
Oil and Natural Gas Properties

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for natural gas and oil properties, prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC".) Under the full cost method, all acquisition, exploration, and development costs are capitalized. The Company capitalizes all internal costs, including: salaries and related fringe benefits of employees directly engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural gas and oil properties, as well as other  identifiable general and administrative costs associated with such activities.
 
All capitalized costs of natural gas and oil properties, including the estimated future costs to develop reserves, are amortized (depleted) on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved reserves and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are  impaired, the amount of the impairment is added to the capitalized costs to be amortized. Abandonment of natural gas and oil properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs; that is, the cost of abandoned properties is charged to the full cost pool and amortized.

Under the full cost method, the net book value of natural gas and oil properties, less related deferred income taxes, may not exceed a calculated "ceiling". The ceiling is the estimated after-tax future net revenue from proved natural gas and oil properties, discounted at ten percent (10%) per annum, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties adjusted for the present value of all future oil and gas hedges. In calculating future net revenues, prices and costs in effect at the time of the calculation are held constant indefinitely, except for changes that are fixed and determinable by existing contracts. The net book value is compared to the ceiling on a quarterly basis. The excess, if any, of the net book value above the ceiling is required to be written off as an expense. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not recognize any impairment expense.  Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.

Other Property and Equipment

Other property and equipment is reviewed on an annual basis for impairment and as of December 31, 2008, the Company had not identified any such impairment. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations when incurred and improvements and renewals are capitalized.

Other property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and accelerated methods for tax purposes.

Their estimated useful lives are as follows:

Office Equipment:  5-7 Years

Asset Retirement Obligations

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, the Company records the fair value of its liability for asset retirement obligations in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long live assets. Over time, the liability is accreted to its present value at the end of each reporting period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related assets. Upon settlement of the liability, the Company will either settle the obligation for its recorded amount or incur a gain or loss upon settlement. The Company's asset retirement obligations relate to the plugging and abandonment of its oil properties.

Intangible Assets

The cost of licensed technologies (intellectual property rights) acquired is capitalized and is being amortized over the shorter of the term of the licensing agreement or the remaining life of the underlying patents.

The Company evaluates recoverability of identifiable intangible assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that intangible assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of cost significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. The Company measures the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it.

Should the sum of the expected cash flows be less than the carrying amount of assets being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets, exceed fair value. Estimated amortization of intangible assets over the next five years is as follows:

Stock Based Compensation

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R (FAS-123R), Share Based Payment, which is a revision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (FAS-123), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
 
FAS-123R eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transaction using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.25 (APB-25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees), and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company has elected to adopt the provisions of FAS-123R effective January 1, 2006, under the modified prospective transition method, in which compensation cost was recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of FAS-123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of FAS 123-R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of FAS-123R that remain unvested on the effective date.

As permitted under FAS-123, the Company elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for stock-based awards to employees through December 31, 2005. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options and non-vested stock grants was measured as the excess, if any, of the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price.

With the adoption of FAS-123R, the Company elected to amortize stock-based compensation for awards granted on or after the adoption of FAS-123R on January 1, 2006, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award. For awards granted prior to January 1, 2006, compensation costs are amortized in a manner consistent with Financial Accounting Standards Boards Interpretation No. 28 (FIN-28), Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option of Award Plans. This is the same manner applied in the pro-forma disclosures under FAS-123.

Warrants

The value of warrants issued is recorded at their fair values as determined by use of a Black Scholes Model at such time or over such periods as the warrants vest.

Earnings per Common Share

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 128, Earnings Per Share, requires presentation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share on the face of the statements of operations for all entities with complex capital structures. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted during the period. Dilutive securities having an antidilutive effect on diluted earnings per share are excluded from the calculation.

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 carryforwards, 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. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 is intended to clarify the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements and prescribes the recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
 
Under FIN 48, evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met.

The adoption of FIN 48 at January 1, 2007 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years' financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.
 
Revenue Recognition

In accordance with the requirements of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13A "Revenue Recognition", revenues are recognized at such time as (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Specifically, oil and gas sales are recognized as income at such time as the oil and gas are delivered under contract to a viable third party purchaser at an agreed price. Interest income is recognized as it is earned.

Deposits and other assets

Deposits and other assets consist of a deposit on leased office space in the amount of $3,138 as of December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (FAS 161). FAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The guidance in FAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. This Statement encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. The Company does not believe that SFAS 161 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

On December 22, 2008, the Company issued a promissory note to an investor in the amount of $150,000.  This note carries an interest rate of 10% and matures on December 15, 2009.  During the three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company accrued interest in the amount of $370.  Pursuant to the note payable agreement, the Company issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock to the note holder. These shares are considered a discount to the note. Since the market price of the shares at the time of issuance exceeds the face value of the note, the amount of the discount was capped at the face value of the note, or $150,000.  This amount will be amortized over the 1 year life of the note payable via the effective interest method. As of December 31, 2008, no amortization expense was taken on the discount to the note payable; amortization will begin in January 2009.

On December 31, 2008, the Company received a cash advance from an investor in the amount of $100,000.  On January 1, 2009 the Company received an additional $50,000 from this investor,  and the Company entered into a note payable agreement with the investor in the amount of $150,000.  This amount consists of the $100,000 December cash advance and the additional amount of $50,000 received in January 2009.    Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, in December 2008 the Company issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock to the note holder. At December 31, 2008, the value of these shares is considered a discount to the advance.  Since the market price of the shares at the time of issuance exceeds the face value of the advance, the amount of the discount was capped at the amount of the advance, or $100,000.   In January 2009, an additional discount in the amount of $50,000 will be recorded when the advance is rolled into the $150,000 note. As of December 31, 2008, no amortization expense was taken on the discount to the cash advance; amortization via the effective interest method will begin in January 2009.

The Series A Preferred Stock pays an eight percent (8%) dividend. The dividends are cumulative and payable quarterly. The Series A Preferred Stock carries liquidating preference, over all other classes of stock, equal to the amount paid for the stock plus any unpaid dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock provides for voting rights on an "as converted to common stock" basis.

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company incurred $10,000 and $30,000 in preferred stock dividends, respectively.  At December 31, 2008, the Company has not paid accrued dividends in the amount of $10,000 and this amount appears as dividends payable in the Company’s balance sheet.
 
The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have the right to convert the preferred stock into shares of common stock such that if converted simultaneously, they shall represent 40 percent (40%) of the fully diluted shares outstanding after their issuance. Fully diluted shares outstanding is computed as the sum of the number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of outstanding options, warrants, or convertible securities.
 
NOTE 11: INCOME TAXES

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 is intended to clarify the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements and prescribes the recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Under FIN 48, evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met.

The adoption of FIN 48 at January 1, 2007 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position.

The Company is delinquent filing tax returns with the Internal Revenue service and state taxing authorities. The Company is currently in the process of filing these delinquent returns. We expect to file these delinquent returns on or before March 31, 2009. The filing of these returns should result in a net operating loss (NOL) carry forward which would create in a deferred tax asset that would be fully reserved.

NOTE 14: REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company entered into a contractual dispute with a well operator (the “Operator”) which currently operates three of the Company’s producing leaseholds.  As a result of this dispute, in beginning in July 2008 the Company stopped payment to the Operator on the lease operating expenses associated with these producing leaseholds.  The Operator has withheld payment of revenue from these wells from the Company, and has applied this revenue against the lease operating expenses.  As of December 31, 2008, the Company is current on the lease operating expenses of one leasehold, and received revenues from this leasehold for the month of December 2008. The lease operating expenses on the other two producing leaseholds were paid in of January 2009.    The Operator has not provided complete operation statements to the Company for the period ended December 31, 2008, regarding the revenue due to the Company from these wells. We have accrued all of the operating expenses at December 31, 2008, but we believe that our revenue may be understated for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008.  We also believe that the operator of these wells has significantly overcharged us for the operating costs of these three leaseholds.  We have initiated an audit of the operator to determine the extent of these excess charges.
 
NOTE 15:  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes related thereto. The discussion of results, causes and trends should not be construed to infer conclusions that such results, causes or trends necessarily will continue in the future.

Business Development

We were originally incorporated in Colorado in April 1991 under the name Snow Runner (USA), Inc. We were the general partner of Snow Runner (USA) Ltd., a Colorado limited partnership to sell proprietary snow skates under the name "Sled Dogs" which was dissolved in August 1992. In late 1993, we relocated our operations to Minnesota and in January 1994 changed our name to Snow Runner, Inc. In November 1994 we changed our name to the Sled Dogs Company. On November 5, 1997, we filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In September 1998, we emerged from protection of Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In May, 1999, we changed our state of domicile to Nevada and  our name to XDOGS.COM, Inc. In August 2000, following our bankruptcy, we made a decision to re-focus to a traditional wholesale to retail distributor, and obtained the exclusive North American rights to distribute high-end European outdoor apparel and equipment. We first intended to exploit these rights over the Internet under the name XDOGS.COM, Inc. However, due to the general economic conditions and the ensuing general downturn in e-commerce and internet-based businesses, we decided that to best preserve our core assets we would need to adopt a more traditional strategy. Thus, we abandoned this approach and to better reflect our new focus, we changed our name to XDOGS, Inc. On July 22, 2005, the Board of Directors and a majority of the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change the Company's name to Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc., and to increase the authorized number of shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 1,000,000,000 shares, par value of $0.001, and engage in the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties.

Acquisition Strategy

Our strategy is to acquire oil and gas producing properties that have proven reserves and established in-field drilling locations with a combination of cash, debt, and equity. We believe that acquisition of such properties minimizes our risk, allows us to generate immediate cash flow, and provides in-field drilling locations to expand production within the proven oil and gas fields. We will aggressively develop these low cost/low risk properties in order to enhance shareholder value. In addition, Avalon's technology group acquires oil production enhancing technologies. Through our strategic partnership with UTEK Corporation, (UTK: ASE) a transfer technology company, we are building an asset portfolio of innovative technologies in the oil and gas industry to maximize enhancement opportunities at its various oil and gas properties.

In furtherance of the foregoing strategy, we have engaged in the following transactions during and subsequent to the period covered by this report:

We announced in a press release dated July 2, 2008 that we signed a letter agreement to acquire all of the oil and gas producing assets owned by Bedford Energy, Inc. in the East Chandler Field, Lincoln County, Oklahoma. We will increase our current interest in the Grace #2 well and      acquire working interests in four other producing wells in the East  Chandler Field, the Grace #1, Grace #3, Grace #5A and Grace #6 wells, as follows:

·  
We are increasing our working interest in the Grace #2 from 2.5% to 7.5%; and increasing our net revenue interest in the Grace #2 to 11.95%, which is producing 350 thousand cubic feet of gas per day. We initially acquired its working interest in the Grace #2 well in June, 2008.

·  
We are acquiring a 10% working interest and 13.825% net revenue interest in the Grace #1, Grace #3, Grace #5A and Grace #6 wells. The Grace #5A has an initial potential of 50 barrels of oil per day and 300 thousand cubic feet of gas per day. The Grace #1, the Grace #3, the Grace #5 and the Grace #6 wells will be completed in the Hunton Lime.

·  
We are acquiring a salt water disposal well and offset and development acreage in the two quarter sections of the East Chandler Field.

·  
We announced in a press release dated December 22, 2008 that we closed the acquisition of all of the oil and gas producing assets owned by Bedford Energy, Inc. in the East Chandler Field, Lincoln County, Oklahoma.  The Company increased its current interest in the Grace #2 well and acquired working interests in four other producing wells in the East Chandler Field, the Grace #1, Grace #3, Grace #5A and Grace #6 wells, as follows:
 
 
The Company increased its working interest in the Grace #2 from 2.5% to 7.5%; and increased its net revenue interest in the Grace #2 to 11.95%, which is producing 350 thousand cubic feet of gas per day. The Company initially acquired its working interest in the Grace #2 well in June, 2008.

The Company acquired a 10% working interest and a 13.825% net revenue interest in the Grace #1, Grace #3, Grace #5A and Grace #6 wells.  The Grace #5A has an initial potential of 50 barrels of oil per day and 300 thousand cubic feet of gas per day.  The Grace #1, the Grace #3, the Grace #5 and the Grace #6 wells will be completed in the Hunton Lime

The Company acquired an undivided fifty (50%) percent interest in a salt water disposal well and offset and development acreage in the two quarter sections of the East Chandler Field.  In addition, the Company acquired a fifty (50%) percent interest in 540 acres adjoining the 320 acre East Chandler Field.

The Company also acquired total reserves of 90,000 barrels of oil and 559 million cubic feet of gas.

The Hunton Lime Reserves from the Grace #1, the Grace #3 and the Grace #6 wells are estimated to be 48,000 barrels of oil and 423 million cubic feet of gas.  The Upper Red Fork Sand reserves for the Grace #5A are estimated to be 30 million cubic feet of gas.

The Company also acquired Prue Sand potential in the Grace #3, Grace #5A and the Grace #6 wells.   Estimated Prue Sand reserves for these three wells are 33,000 barrels of oil and 81 million cubic feet of gas.
 
We plan to raise additional capital during the current fiscal year, but currently have not identified additional funding sources. Our ability to continue operations is highly dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing, or generate revenues from our acquired oil and gas leasehold interests, none of which can be guaranteed.

Ultimately, our success is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues from our acquired oil and gas leasehold interests, and to achieve profitability, which is dependent upon a number of factors, including general economic conditions and the sustained profitability resulting from the operation of the acquired oil and gas leaseholds. There is no assurance that even with adequate financing or combined operations, we will generate revenues and be profitable.
 
 
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

On August 13, 2007, The Company received notice that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Offices approved the patent application for Avalon's paraffin wax mitigation system, being marketed as Ultrasonic Mitigation Solutions(TM) (the "Patent"). Currently available solutions to paraffin wax deposits and build-up in oil production rely upon chemical solvents, which not only require repeated mechanical pigging operation and costly workovers to maintain production capacity, but also can also result in environmental liabilities. In contrast, the Patent utilizes ultrasonic waves to fragment current paraffin deposits in the production's tubing and prevent future wax formation in an environmentally safe process

On August 16, 2007, Kent Rodriguez, the Company's President and CEO, presented a proposal to the Board of Directors to spin-off Oiltek, which specializes in oil and gas recovery technology to Avalon's shareholders. The oil and gas technology include, but are not limited, to the Patent; a system to detect hazardous gas leaks including small leaks in natural gas pipelines; and a system for intelligent drilling and completion sensors to provide real-time oil reservoir monitoring of subsurface information.

Ultimately, our success is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues from our acquired oil and gas leasehold interests and licensed technology, and to achieve profitability, which is dependent upon a number of factors, including general economic conditions and the sustained profitability resulting from the operation of the acquired oil and gas leaseholds. There is no assurance that even with adequate financing or combined operations, we will generate revenues and be profitable.

Financing Activities

We have been funding our obligations through the issuance of our Common Stock for services rendered or for cash in private placements. The Company may seek additional funds in the private or public equity or debt markets in order to execute its plan of operation and business strategy. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract capital or obtain such financing when needed or on acceptable terms in which case the Company's ability to execute its business strategy will be impaired.

Results of Operations

Three months ended December 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007:

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2008 were $56,037, a decrease of approximately 28% compared to revenue of  $78,304 for the three months ended December 31, 2007.  Revenues from the sale of oil and gas decreased as a result of a weakness in the market price of oil and gas.
 
 
Lease Operating Expenses

During the three month period ending December 31, 2008, our lease operating expenses were  $45,810, an increase of $14,775 or approximately 48% compared to  $31,035 for the three month period ended December 31, 2007.    This increase was the  result of the acquisition of several properties which were in operation during the three months ended December 31, 2008 compared to the prior period.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 were $661,685, a decrease of $295,117 compared to selling, general and administrative expenses of $956,802 during the nine months ended December 31, 2007.   Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2008 consisted primarily of  payroll and related costs of $147.235 ; legal and accounting fees in the amount of $146,811; travel and entertainment expenses of $118,461; consulting fees in the amount of $112,593; office expenses of $56,687; investor relations costs of $29,300;  facilities costs in the amount of $29,254; and insurance expense in the amount of $16,606.   Selling,  general and administrative expenses in the prior period included the use of more outside consultants as we built out our operational business model. This structure is now in place, and the use of outside consultants and the associated cost has greatly decreased. We expect selling,  general, and administrative expenses to trend upward over the coming twelve months as our operational activity increases.
 
Acquisition Costs

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The December 31, 2008, financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred a loss of $23,844,763 from inception through December 31, 2008, and has a working capital deficiency  of $830,409   and shareholder’s equity of $3,055,713 , respectively, at December 31, 2008. The Company currently has minimal revenue generating operations and expects to incur substantial operating expenses in order to expand its business. As a result, the Company expects to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might become necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Our cash and cash equivalents were $85,202 on December 31, 2008, compared to $108,688 on March 31, 2008. We met our liquidity needs through the issuance of our common stock and notes payable for cash and the revenue derived from oil and gas operations.
 
 
We need to raise additional capital during the fiscal year, but currently have not acquired sufficient additional funding. Our ability to continue operations is highly dependent upon our ability to obtain immediate additional financing, or generate revenues from our acquired oil and gas leasehold interest, and to achieve profitability, none of which can be guaranteed. Unless additional funding is located, it is highly unlikely that we can continue to operate. There is no assurance that even with adequate financing or combined operations, we will generate revenues and be profitable.

Ultimately, our success is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues from our acquired oil and gas leasehold interests.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

The consolidated  financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based on information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reporting amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. A summary of the significant accounting policies is described in Note 1 to the financial statements.
