PART I
Item 1. Description of Business
(a) Business Development
We were originally incorporated as Arts Antique Autos, Ltd., and changed our name to Golden Chief Resources, Inc. on August 5, 1981. During the early 1980s, we engaged in oil and gas operating, mining, real estate operations. During the mid-1980s, we lost our asset and revenue base due to economic conditions, and liquidated assets and ceased operations in 1986. Accordingly, we remained dormant with no activity until the fiscal year beginning October 1, 1997. During the year ended September 30, 1998, minimal new assets were contributed in exchange for stock. In October 1999, oil and gas interests were contributed in exchange for stock, resulting in a change of control. In July 2002, we transferred the oil and gas interests to a shareholder in exchange for debt assumption, and ceased operations.
Therefore, we are deemed to have re-entered the development stage on October 1, 1997. Since that time, our activities have been limited to formation, the raising of equity capital, and the development of a business plan. In the current development stage, we anticipate incurring operating losses as we implement our business plan.
During its fiscal year ended September 30, 2004, the Company was not involved in any bankruptcy, receivership, or similar proceeding and underwent no material reclassification, merger, or consolidation. The Company does not anticipate involvement or participation in any of the above proceedings.
(b) Business of Issuer
The Company is seeking to re-enter the oil and gas industry as a producer, but the prospect is limited by the availability of sufficient funds to pursue this on a more active basis. The Company currently has two employees.
(c) Reports to Security Holders
The Company does not intend to deliver an annual report to its security holders. The public may read and copy any materials filed with the SEC, such as this Form 10-KSB and Form 10-QSB reports. The Company is an electronic filer under the SEC's EDGAR filing program. Accordingly, the Company's filings are maintained by the SEC in a database at www.sec.gov and are available to all security holders.
Item 2. Description of Property
As of September 30, 2004, the Company had minimal assets.
Previously the Company had oil and gas operations and as such are and will be subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations and by political developments. The domestic production and sale of oil and gas are subject to federal regulation by the Department of Energy and the Federal Energy Regulation Commission. Rates of production of oil and gas have for many years been subject to federal and state conservation laws and regulations. In addition, oil and gas operations are subject to extensive federal and state regulations concerning exploration, development, production, transportation and pricing, and to interruption or termination by governmental authorities.
2
The term "working interest" as used herein means all or a fractional part of the ownership rights granted by a concession or lease. The working interest, or a part thereof, pays all costs of operation and is entitled to the gross production less royalties retained by the grantor or lessor and less other royalties or non-operating interests created and assigned from the working interest.
Gas Reserves
Please review the notes attached to the financial statements which are made a part hereof.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
As of July 15, 2005 there were no legal proceedings to which the Company was a party, and no litigation is known to be pending.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders
There have been no matters submitted to a vote of securities holders since December 17, 2001 at which a special meeting of shareholders was held in Dallas, Texas at which the Company agreed to effect a reverse split of its common stock at a 1 for 10 ratio. This action was effective as soon as practical and was effected in the trading of the Company's shares on January 2, 2002. The meeting also approved the filing of an S-8 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to allow the issuance of shares to consultants, advisors and attorneys. The S-8 statement was filed on December 21, 2001. The meeting also approved the change of corporate name to be determined at a later date by management. See Subsequent Events below.

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations

This transaction effectively removed all producing properties and transferred them to the Company's president along with the liabilities associated with them.
In order for the Company to proceed an input of capital and or assets must be forthcoming. Management is actively seeking both.

On December 17, 2001 a special meeting of shareholders was held in Dallas, Texas at which the Company agreed to effect a reverse split of its common stock at a 1 for 10 ratio. This action was effective as soon as practical and was effected in the trading of the Company's shares on January 2, 2002. The meeting also approved the filing of an S-8 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to allow the issuance of shares to consultants, advisors and
4
attorneys. The S-8 statement was filed on December 21, 2001. The meeting also authorized management to pursue changing the corporate name to more accurately reflect the Company's current activities and business.
In December 2001 the Company issued common shares pursuant to the S-8 filing to Steve Owen in the amount of 2,500,000 shares valued at $175,000; Gene Maloney in the amount of 1,000,000 shares valued at $70,000; and 1,000,000 shares to Aden L.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Board of Directors and Stockholders Of Golden Chief Resources, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Golden Chief Resources, Inc. (a Kansas corporation and a development stage enterprise) as of September 30, 2004, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2004, and for the cumulative development stage period from October 1, 1997 through September 30, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of Golden Chief Resources, Inc. as of September 30, 2003, and for the year then ended, and the cumulative statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows from October 1, 1997 through September 30, 2003, were audited by other auditors whose report dated July 15, 2004, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements, with a paragraph emphasizing that there was substantial doubt the entity might survive as a going concern. Our report on the cumulative statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows from October 1, 1997, through September 30, 2004, insofar as it relates to amounts for periods ending on or prior to September 30, 2003, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Golden Chief Resources, Inc. (a development stage enterprise) as of September 30, 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2004, and for the cumulative development stage period from October 1, 1997, through September 30, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company is not currently engaged in a business and has suffered losses from development stage activities to date, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2003 and the results of its operations for the years ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 and from restart of the development period in 1998 to September 30, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited operations currently and suffered recurring losses from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. This is further explained in the notes to financial statements.

Golden Chief Resources, Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise)
Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2004 and 2003
Note 1 - Organization and summary of significant accounting policies: Following is a summary of our organization and significant accounting policies:
Organization and nature of business - Golden Chief Resources, Inc. (identified in these footnotes as "we" or "the Company") is a Kansas corporation incorporated on November 16, 1976. We are a development stage enterprise currently based in Lewisville, Texas, and intend to operate primarily in the U.S. We use September 30 as a fiscal year for financial reporting purposes.
We were originally incorporated as Arts Antique Autos, Ltd., and changed our name to Golden Chief Resources, Inc. on August 5, 1981. During the early 1980s, we engaged in oil and gas operating, mining, real estate operations. During the mid-1980s, we lost our asset and revenue base due to economic conditions, and liquidated assets and ceased operations in 1986. During the year ended September 30, 1998, minimal new assets were contributed in exchange for stock. In October 1999, oil and gas interests were contributed in exchange for stock, resulting in a change of control. In July 2002, we transferred the oil and gas interests to a shareholder in exchange for debt assumption, and ceased operations.
Therefore, we re-entered the development stage on October 1, 1997. Since that time, our activities have been limited to formation, the raising of equity capital, and the development of a business plan. In the current development stage, we anticipate incurring operating losses as we implement our business plan.
Basis of presentation - The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to development stage enterprises.
Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. F-11
Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, we consider all cash in banks, money market funds, and certificates of deposit with a maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents.
Fair value of financial instruments and derivative financial instruments - The carrying amounts of cash, receivables, and current liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. These fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. We not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes, nor do we utilize derivative instruments in the management of our foreign exchange, commodity price or interest rate market risks.
Long-lived assets - Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment, excess of cost over net assets of acquired businesses, and other intangible assets. The recoverability of long-lived assets is evaluated at the operating unit level by an analysis of operating results and consideration of other significant events or changes in the business environment. If an operating unit has indications of impairment, such as current operating losses, the Company will evaluate whether impairment exists on the basis of undiscounted expected future cash flows from operations before interest for the remaining amortization period. If impairment exists, the carrying amount of the long- lived asset is reduced to its estimated fair value, less any costs associated with any final settlement. We had no long-lived assets at September 30, 2004 and 2003
Federal income taxes - Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards number 109 Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes and tax benefits 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, and for tax loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets 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 Company provides deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards when realization is more likely than not.
Net income per share of common stock - We have adopted FASB Statement Number 128, Earnings per Share, which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic earnings per share of common stock is
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. F-12
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Because we experienced an operating loss during the period, the calculation of diluted earnings per share did not include the stock options described in Note 5 below, as the calculation would have been antidilutive.
Stock options - We account for stock option grants to employees and others using the intrinsic value method. Under the intrinsic value method, we recognize compensation costs equal to the difference between the quoted market price of the stock at the measurement date and the amount the employee must pay.
Issuance of stock for services - On occasion, we issue stock in exchange for services or in satisfaction of an obligation. Such transactions are accounted for on the basis of the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured.
Note 2 - Future operations: At September 30, 2004, we were not currently engaged in an operating business and had suffered losses from development stage activities to date. We expect to continue incurring development stage operating losses during the near term. In addition, at September 30, 2004, current liabilities exceeded current assets by approximately $39,000, and we had a stockholders' deficit of a similar amount. Further, we must rely on our officers and directors to perform essential functions without compensation until a business operation can be commenced. Although management is currently investigating business opportunities in the oil and gas industry and is seeking additional sources of equity or debt financing, there is no assurance these activities will be successful. Accordingly, we must rely on our officers to perform essential functions without compensation until a business operation can be commenced.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
No amounts have been recorded in the accompanying financial statements for the value of officers' services, as it is not considered material.
Note 3 - Operating lease: We occupy space in the offices of Humboldt Corp., a shareholder, under an oral, month-to-month, operating lease requiring payments of $1,000 per month. The lease began March 1, 2004. Rent expense was $6,000 during the year ended September 30, 2004 and -0- for the year ended September 30, 2003.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. F-13 Note 4 - Stock transactions: In December 2001, we effected a 1 for 10 reverse split of our common stock. The effect of the reverse split has been retroactively stated in the accompanying financial statements.
Shares issued during the years ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 were as follows:
Price Number of Per Total Period Issued To: Issued For: Shares Share Amount -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quarter Ended December 31, 2004 Individual Cash 10,000,000 $0.001 10,000 Quarter Ended Our Executive Vice Reduce payable to March 31, 2004 President him 30,000,000 $0.001 30,000 Quarter Ended March 31, 2004 Former auditors Account payable 500,000 $0.033 16,440 Quarter ended September 30, 2004 Individuals and Cash and payments corporations made on our behalf 20,000,000 $0.01 20,000
Note 5 - Stock options: In November 1999, we adopted a stock option plan under which stock options may be granted to certain employees, officers, directors, and consultants. At September 30, 2004 and 2003, we had reserved 250,000 of authorized but unissued common stock for possible future issuance in connection with the potential exercise of stock options. We have the following stock options outstanding:
September 30, ----------------------------------- 2004 2003 -----------------------------------
Outstanding, beginning of year 250,000 250,000 Additional options issued - - Options exercised - - Options expired - - Options cancelled - - ----------------------------------- Outstanding, end of year 250,000 250,000 ===================================
With respect to options outstanding at September 30, 2004:
Expiration Date Exercise Price Shares --------------- -------------- ------ December 31, 2004 $0.20 per share 50,000 December 31, 2005 $0.10 per share 200,000 ------------------ Total $0. 12 per share weighted average 250,000 ==================
In the year that the options were issued, compensation expense of $15,000 was recorded with an offsetting credit to Additional paid-in capital - stock options.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. F-14 Note 6 - Federal income tax: We follow Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 109 (SFAS 109), Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carryforwards. No net provision for Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of operations because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carryforward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.
The provision for refundable Federal and state income tax consists of the following:
Years Ended September 30, 2004 2003 -------------------- Refundable Federal income tax attributable to: Current operations $(7,800) $ (500) Less, Change in valuation allowance 7,800 500 ------- ------- Net refundable amount $ -- $ -- ======= =======
Refundable state income tax attributable to: Current operations $ 1,000 $ 100 Less, Change in valuation allowance (1,000) (100) ------- ------- ------- ------- Net refundable amount $ -- $ -- ======= =======
The cumulative tax effect at the expected rates of 34% (Federal) and 4.5% (State) of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount as of September 30, 2004 and 2003 is as follows:
Years Ended September 30, 2004 2003 ----------------------- Deferred Federal tax asset attributable to: Net operating loss carryover (as previously reported) $ 668,900 $ 952,800 Adjustment due to corrections -- (291,700) --------- --------- As restated 668,900 661,100 Less, Valuation allowance (668,900) (661,100) --------- --------- Net deferred Federal tax asset $ -- $ -- ========= =========
Deferred state tax asset attributable to: Net operating loss carryover $ 88,500 $ 122,400 Adjustment due to corrections -- (34,900) --------- --------- As restated 88,500 87,500 Less, Valuation allowance (88,500) (87,500) --------- --------- Net deferred state tax asset $ -- $ -- ========= =========
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. F-15 During the current year, we determined that certain items used in the calculation of the deferred tax asset at September 30, 2003 were not appropriately includible. The items related to an adjustment of the net operating loss carryover, accrued salaries, and stock option compensation expense. The net adjustment was $291,700 to the Federal deferred tax asset and $34,900 to the state deferred tax asset. There was no overall effect, as the deferred tax asset was fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance.
At September 30, 2004, we had an unused net operating loss carryover approximating $1,967,000 that is available to offset future taxable income; it expires from years 2018 to 2024.
Note 7 - Subsequent events: Subsequent to September 30, 2004, we began evaluating certain oil and gas properties for potential purchase. As of July 31, 2005, no transactions had been consummated.
Note 8 - New accounting pronouncements: The following recent accounting pronouncements:
