AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL INDUSTRIES, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of American International Industries, Inc. (“American”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in American's latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.

Organization, Ownership and Business

American, a Nevada corporation, operates as a diversified holding company with a number of wholly-owned subsidiaries and some partially owned subsidiaries. American is a diversified corporation with interests in industrial/commercial companies and an oil and gas service business. American's business strategy is to acquire controlling equity interests in businesses that it considers undervalued. American's management takes an active role in providing its subsidiaries with access to capital, leveraging synergies and providing management expertise in order to improve its subsidiaries' growth.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American International Industries, Inc. ("American") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Northeastern Plastics, Inc. ("NPI") and American International Texas Properties, Inc. ("AITP"), Delta Seaboard International, Inc. ("Delta"), in which American holds a 86.8% shareholder interest, and Brenham Oil & Gas Corp. (“BOG”), in which American holds a 53.2% interest.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
On April 3, 2012, Delta entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Delta Seaboard, LLC (the "Purchaser"), a Texas limited liability company that is owned and controlled by Robert W. Derrick, Jr. and Ronald D. Burleigh, Delta's president and director and vice-president and director, respectively, Delta Seaboard Well Service, Inc. ("DSWSI"), a Texas corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delta, and American.
 
The agreement provided, among other things, that: (i) Delta sell, transfer and assign the assets and liabilities of DSWSI to the Purchaser; (ii) Messrs. Derrick and Burleigh resign as executive officers and as members of Delta’s board of directors; and (iii) Messrs. Derrick and Burleigh transfer and assign all of their 31,925,832 Delta shares valued at $624,704 to American. In consideration for the sale, transfer and assignment of the DSWSI net assets to Purchaser, Purchaser paid $1,600,000 in cash at the closing and executed a 5 year note bearing interest at 5% per annum in the face amount of $1,400,000.  Total consideration for the sale was $3,000,000.  The note is personally guaranteed by Messrs. Derrick and Burleigh and is secured by the 3.2 acre parcel on which the business of DSWSI is located (the "DSWSI Property"). Notwithstanding its 5 year term, the Note expressly provides that the principal and interest shall be prepaid in full upon the sale of the DSWSI Property. Delta will receive additional consideration equal to the amount that Delta LLC receives from the planned sale of the 3.2 acre property in excess of $3 million. This property is currently being offered for sale for $4.25 million, which both Delta and American believe is the fair market value of the property.
 
The assets of DSWSI are classified as assets held for sale and associated liabilities of assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 in accordance with Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations (ASC 205-20).  Discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 includes a gain on disposal of DSWSI of $1,498,327 for the total consideration of $3,000,000 less DSWSI's assets and associated liabilities of $1,501,673 (Note 7).  DSWSI's net loss of $922,517 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and a net loss of $7,167 and net income of $137,033 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively,  are included in discontinued operations.

Currently, corporate overhead includes BOG, a division that owns an oil, gas and mineral royalty interest in Washington County, Texas and an oil field in Abilene, Texas.  Through BOG, the Company is engaged in negotiations with financial institutions for the purpose of financing potential acquisitions of existing oil and gas properties and reserves.  The Company is seeking to acquire a portfolio of oil and gas assets in North America and West Africa and large oil concessions in West Africa. In April 2010, American entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement to spin off Brenham Oil & Gas, Inc., which was 100% owned by American. In conjunction with this transaction, American formed Brenham Oil & Gas, Corp. with authorized common stock of 200,000,000 shares and authorized preferred stock of 10,000,000 shares. BOG issued 64,977,093 shares of common stock to American for all shares of Brenham Oil & Gas, Inc., of which American issued as a dividend 10,297,019 shares to the existing stockholders of American. American maintains control of Brenham through ownership of 58,680,074 shares of Brenham's common stock, representing about 53.2% of the outstanding shares as of December 31, 2011. 
T he resale registration statement of Brenham was declared effective by the SEC on May 16, 2011. This registration statement registered 10,279,019 shares of Brenham common stock issued to American shareholders as a dividend on July 21, 2010. BOG is a separate reporting company, and BOG's common stock is quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board beginning in August 2011.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts in prior periods to conform with the current period presentation.  All reclassifications have been applied consistently to the periods presented.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during a period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss), adjusted on an as if converted basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, potential dilutive securities that had an anti-dilutive effect were not included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per common share. These securities include 100,000 options to purchase shares of common stock that were not "in the money".  No dilutive securities were outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
Management's Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of consolidated 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, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2008, American adopted the framework for measuring fair value that establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques 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 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
 
Basis of Fair Value Measurement
 
Level 1    Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
Level 2    Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or the liability; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
Level 3   Unobservable inputs reflecting American's own assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.
 
American believes that the fair value of its financial instruments comprising cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and notes payable approximate their carrying amounts.  The interest rates payable by American on its notes payable approximate market rates.  The fair values of American's Level 1 financial assets, trading securities and marketable securities - available for sale that primarily include shares of common stock in various companies, are based on quoted market prices of the identical underlying security.  As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, American did not have any significant Level 2 or 3 financial assets or liabilities.

Subsequent Events
 
A merican has evaluated all transactions from June 30, 2012 through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent event disclosure consideration.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
There were various accounting standards and interpretations issued recently, none of which are expected to a have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows.
 
Note 2 - Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
American maintains its cash and certificates of deposit in commercial accounts at major financial institutions. The FDIC no longer has limits on non-interest bearing accounts. Although the financial institutions are considered creditworthy, at June 30, 2012, American's cash and certificates of deposit balances held in banks in interest bearing accounts exceeded the limit covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation by approximately $7,200. The terms of these deposits are on demand to minimize risk. American has not incurred losses related to these deposits.
 
Trade accounts receivable subject American to the potential for credit risk with customers in the retail and distribution sectors. To reduce credit risk, American performs ongoing evaluations of its customer’s financial condition but generally does not require collateral. As of and during the six months ended June 30, 2012, NPI had one customer that accounted for 21% of revenues and 21% of trade accounts receivable, one customer that accounted for 16% of revenues and 10% of trade accounts receivable, one customer that accounted for 11% of revenues, and one customer that accounted for 11% of revenues on a consolidated basis.

Note 3 - Trading Securities and Marketable Securities - Available for Sale
 
Investments in equity securities primarily include shares of common stock in various companies that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term with the objective of generating profits on short-term differences in price. These investments are classified as trading securities and, accordingly, any unrealized changes in market values are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.  For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, American had net unrealized trading losses of $78,604 and gains of $316,112, respectively, related to securities held on those dates.  American recorded net realized gains of $12,764 and losses of $401,655 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, American had net unrealized trading losses of $8,458 and $83,433, respectively, related to securities held on those dates.  American recorded net realized gains of $12,764 and losses of $256,843 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
 
On June 21, 2010, American received as compensation for consulting services 1,000,000 restricted shares of ADB International Group, Inc. ("ADBI") common stock valued at $1,370,000, based on the closing market price of $1.37 per share on that date.  On December 8, 2010, American purchased an additional 300,000 shares for $35,000. This investment is classified as marketable securities - available for sale and, accordingly, any unrealized changes in market values are recognized as other comprehensive loss .  At June 30, 2012, this investment was valued at $13,000, based on the closing market price of $0.01 per share on that date.  American recognized other comprehensive gains for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, of $7,540 and 6,500, respectively, for the unrealized changes in market values for this investment.  American recognized other comprehensive gains of $5,200 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and losses of $110,500 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 for the unrealized changes in market values for this investment.
 
Equity markets can experience significant volatility and therefore are subject to changes in value. Based upon the current volatile nature of the U.S. securities markets and the decline in the U.S. economy, we believe that it is possible, that the market values of our equity securities could decline in the near term. We have a policy in place to review our equity holdings on a regular basis. Our policy includes, but is not limited to, reviewing each company’s cash position, earnings/revenue outlook, stock price performance, liquidity and management/ownership. American seeks to manage exposure to adverse equity returns in the future by potentially increasing the diversity of our securities portfolios.

(a) Sale of former subsidiary, Marald, Inc., principal and interest due monthly through July 2012 .  The original note was for $300,000 and was discounted to $200,000 for the receipt of full payment on or before October 25, 2007.  On May 4, 2010, a new promissory note was executed in the amount of $300,000 for the note balance plus accrued interest, with the payment terms indicated above.  A s of June 30, 2012, t he other note receivable with Marald has been paid in full and payments began on this note under a new extension and renewal agreement in July 2012.
 
(b) Note purchased from Texas Community Bank with a face amount of $300,000.   This delinquent note owed by Las Vegas Premium Gold was purchased on September 30, 2009 for $300,000.  This note was purchased as an investment to receive the interest income from the note.  During the three months ended June 30, 2012, American wrote this note off against the notes receivable reserve.
 
(c)  Unsecured note receivable due October 1, 2014 . This note was issued for $601,300. This note was previously owed by Southwest Gulf Coast Properties, Inc. ("SWGCP") resulting from closing costs, principal and interest paid by American on the SWGCP loan at TXCB. In February, SWGCP obtained a judgment against Kentner Shell ("Shell"), who personally guaranteed the note, for $4,193,566 for matters related to these condominiums.  On June 30, 2011, SWGCP assigned all of its interests in this judgment to American in exchange for this note and $10.  In September 2011, American and Shell entered into an agreement whereby Shell will make quarterly payments in the amount of $100,000, beginning April 1, 2012.  Further, in the event that Shell pays $400,000 on or before October 1, 2012, the debt will be considered paid in full.  In the event that Shell pays $500,000 on or before October 1, 2013, the debt will be considered paid in full. Shell previously owed a short-term note of $62,500 that was due in full with interest on March 30, 2012. On June 15, 2012, Shell paid the balance due on this note. Management believes that because Shell has paid the short-term note and has sufficient assets to pay the balance of this note that this note is fully collectible. American has not specifically discounted this note due to the $300,000 reserve due to uncertainty of collectability which has been recorded for notes receivable.
 
American has reserved a total of $300,000 due to uncertainty of collectability. American believes this reserve remains appropriate at June 30, 2012.
 
Interest income on notes receivable is recognized principally by the simple interest method.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, American recognized interest income of $18,890, $19,187, $815, and $4,965, respectively.

American reviewed the accounting standards  Real Estate - General (ASC 970-10) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (ASC 360-10) to determine the appropriate classification for these properties.  According to ASC 970-10, real estate that is held for sale in the ordinary course of business is classified as inventory, which is a current asset.  ASC 360-10 provides the following criteria for property to be classified as held for sale:
  • Management with the appropriate authority commits to a plan to sell the asset;
  • The asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets;
  • An active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan of sale have been initiated;
  • The sale of the property or asset within one year is probable and will qualify for accounting purposes as a sale;
  • The asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and
  • Actions required to complete the plan of sale indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.
Management consulted with the real estate brokers for these properties and reviewed the recent interest for each property.  Based on our consultations and review, we believe that the sale of these properties within one year is probable.  We concluded that all of these criteria have been met for these properties and that they are appropriately classified as held for sale in current assets.
 
Note 7 - Assets held for sale
 
On April 3, 2012, Delta sold the assets and liabilities of DSWSI as discussed in Note 1
 
The assets and liabilities of DSWSI are classified as assets held for sale and associated liabilities of assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 in accordance with Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations (ASC 205-20).  Discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 includes a gain on disposal of DSWSI of $1,498,327 for the total consideration of $3,000,000 less DSWSI's assets and associated liabilities of $1,501,673.  DSWSI's net loss of $922,517 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and a net loss of $7,167 and net income of $137,033 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively,  are included in discontinued operations.
 
On April 22, 2011, American entered into a stock purchase agreement, whereby Joe Hoover, President of Downhole Completion Products, Inc. ("DCP), purchased for $5,000 American's 80% ownership of DCP's assets and associated liabilities. DCP's net loss of $4,410 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is included in discontinued operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, American received the $5,000 for the purchase. This is included as income from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. American forgave the $55,000 promissory note owed by Joe Hoover and this is included as a loss in discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
 
American International Industries, Inc. v. William W. Botts . American filed this lawsuit against William W. Botts (“Botts”) seeking damages as a result of a Stock Purchase Agreement and Consulting Agreement that American entered into with Botts on September 12, 2007. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, American gave Botts $1,000,000 in cash and 288,000 shares of restricted AMIN stock (240,000 original shares plus a 20% stock dividend) for 170,345 shares of OI Corporation. As part of the original agreement, Botts had the right to sell the 288,000 shares back to American for $4.17 per share. Under the Consulting Agreement, American agreed to pay Botts $14,000 per month, plus expenses for performing consulting services. On or about November 5, 2008, American paid Botts $100,000 to terminate the Consulting Agreement to stop the accrual of monthly consulting payments to Botts. Effective February 25, 2011, the parties settled the proceedings against each other, pursuant to which American paid Botts $1,250,000 and executed a $400,000 one year promissory note (note 10) with 5% annual interest paid in monthly installments to Botts due by February 1, 2012. The 288,000 restricted American shares in Botts name were transferred to the Dror Family Trust in consideration for the cash payment to American of approximately $1,400,000 and the issuance to certain Dror related entities and an entity controlled by Mr. Dror's brother, of 1,100,000 restricted American shares. The cash proceeds from the restricted share sale were used to fund the settlements to Botts.
 
On July 1, 2012, the parties reached another settlement, pursuant to which American paid Botts $115,000, of which $65,719 was for payment of the balance of the note.  The remaining $49,281 was accrued and recorded as Botts lawsuit settlement expense as of and during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
American International Industries, Inc. v. Rubicon Financial Incorporated On March 5, 2010, American filed suit against Rubicon Financial Corporation (OTCBB: RBCF.OB), a Nevada corporation with offices in Irvine, CA ("Rubicon"), and Rubicon's control person, chief executive officer and primary financial officer, Joe Mangiapane, Jr., in the District Court, 281st Judicial District, Harris County, TX, for breach of contract, rescission, fraudulent inducement, common law fraud and fraud in the sale of securities. The action related to the acquisition by American on November 27, 2007, of 1,000,000 restricted shares of Rubicon's common stock for a $1,000,000 cash payment and the issuance of 200,000 restricted shares of American's common stock, valued at $4.90 per common share based upon the closing market price on the date of acquisition.
 
17
 

 
On August 19, 2011, American was granted a default judgment for fraud and breach of contract against Rubicon in the amount of $2,000,000 plus attorney's fees and accrued interest at 5% per annum by the 281st District Court, following which American, through California counsel, commenced a separate proceeding seeking to enforce the judgment against Rubicon in a court of competent jurisdiction in Orange County, CA.
 
Rubicon has filed a separate action with the same District Court in Harris County, TX, seeking to have the judgment vacated and seeking sanctions against American. On May 1, 2012, the default judgment was vacated by the District Court but Rubicon's demand for sanctions was denied. The District Court determined that American would not suffer injury.

On May 24, 2012, American filed a motion seeking an order in effect rescinding its May 1, 2012 order that had vacated the default judgment against Rubicon. On July 12, 2012, the Court granted American's motion and ordered a new trial on the issue of whether Rubicon was negligent in failing to appear before the Court in the proceeding that resulted in the grant of the $2 million default judgment on August 19, 2011.

As a result of the July 12, 2012 order, American has been informed by its Texas counsel that the default judgment against Rubicon remains in full force and effect. American has also been informed by its California counsel that it plans to file a motion seeking a stay in the California proceeding pending the final determination of the District Court in Harris County, TX.  American believes that it will prevail on the merits in this proceeding against Rubicon in the District Court, Harris County, and that it will be able to successfully enforce a final judgment of approximately $2 million plus interest in California.
 
Note 13 - Capital Stock and Stock Options
 
American is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 1,000 shares are presently outstanding. The Preferred Stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the Board of Directors, without further action by stockholders, and may include voting rights (including the right to vote as a series on particular matters), preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion, redemption rights and sinking fund provisions.
 
On June 9, 2011, the Board of Directors of American approved the issuance to Daniel Dror, CEO, of 1,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. Mr. Dror has personally guaranteed the following loans of American, and without such guarantees, American would not have been able to receive such funding: (1) a $1,450,000 loan to Northeastern Plastics (“NPI”) at Icon Bank; (2) a $3,000,000 loan to Delta Seaboard at Trustmark National Bank; (3) a $1,850,000 loan to the Company, Rob Derrick and Ron Burleigh at Texas Community Bank (which has since been repaid); and (4) a $3,250,000 loan to NPI at Trustmark National Bank (collectively the “loans”); which the Company has received and continues to receive significant value.  Based on 1% of the outstanding balances of these loans at June 9, 2011, American valued these preferred shares and recorded a guarantor fee of $49,463 to prepaid expenses.  This amount is being amortized to expense over the remaining terms of these loans.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, American recorded amortization of $4,995 and $17,027, respectively.
 
The Series A Preferred Stock, as amended, has the right to vote in aggregate, on all shareholder matters votes equal to 30% of the total shareholder vote on any and all shareholder matters. The Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to this 30% voting right no matter how many shares of common stock or other voting stock of American are issued or outstanding in the future. For example, if there are 10,000 shares of American’s common stock issued and outstanding at the time of a shareholder vote, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock (Mr. Dror), voting separately as a class, will have the right to vote an aggregate of 4,286 shares, out of a total number of 14,286 shares voting.  Additionally, American shall not adopt any amendments to American’s Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation, as amended, make any changes to the Certificate of Designations establishing the Series A Preferred Stock, or effect any reclassification of the Series A Preferred Stock, without the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
 
American is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 1,036,800 are reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of options pursuant to an employment agreement with American's Chairman and CEO.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, American issued 1,545,216 restricted shares of common stock for cash consideration of $795,000 and a receivable of $24,000 for investment from Dror Charitable Foundation for the Arts and the Dror Family Trust, both of which are related parties to Daniel Dror, CEO.  Mr. Dror is not a trustee of the Dror Charitable Foundation for the Arts nor of the Dror Family Trust and he disclaims any beneficial interest in these trusts. Additionally, American issued 400,000 restricted shares of common stock for cash consideration of $184,000 and a receivable of $48,000 to International Diversified Corporation, Ltd., a corporation owned by Elkana Faiwuszewicz, Daniel Dror's brother. Mr. Dror is not an officer, director or shareholder of International Diversified Corporation, Ltd., and he disclaims any beneficial interest in the shares owned by Mr. Faiwuszewicz or his corporation.  As of June 30, 2012, both subscription receivables totaling $72,000 were still outstanding.

On January 13, 2011, American entered into a letter of intent with Kemah Development Texas L.P. (“KDT”) which is owned by an entity which is controlled by the brother of Daniel Dror (Daniel Dror disclaims any ownership in or control over KDT), pursuant to which KDT agreed to sell 65 acres of land located in Galveston County, Texas to American in consideration for restricted shares of common stock. Subsequently, the agreement was amended to provide for the purchase price to be paid by the issuance of 1,460,000 restricted shares of common stock with a fair market value of $919,800. These shares were issued on June 10, 2011. American has received an appraisal of the property from an independent third-party appraiser which concluded that the property had an estimated fair market value of approximately $1,900,000. The purchase of the property closed on July 9, 2011, and American recorded the land at $520,382, the original cost to KDT of this property, and recorded share-based compensation of $399,418 in July 2011. American's present intention is that the property will be held by its wholly-owned real estate subsidiary, American International Texas Properties, Inc.
 
On June 24, 2011, American issued 100,000 stock options to American's President, Mr. S. Scott Gaille, with an exercise price of $0.60 per share, expiring in 2 years, valued at $46,559 and recorded as share-based compensation.  American estimated the fair value of each stock option at the grant date as $0.47 by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2011 as follows:

(“Sellers”), pursuant to which Brenham acquired 700 acres of unproved property located in the Permian Basin near Abilene, Texas. The agreement provides for the Sellers to complete all oil lease assignments by August 15, 2011. The purchase consideration for the acquisition is the issuance to Sellers of 2,000,000 restricted shares of Brenham common stock valued at $8,400, with an additional 2,000,000 restricted shares to be issued contingent upon realization of certain production targets in 2012. On March 8, 2012, this agreement was rescinded and replaced with an agreement that in consideration for the Brenham share issuance, Brenham has a 2.5% overriding royalty interest in all of the leases associated with this property and any properties acquired or renewed in the future within a ten-mile radius. In addition, the contingency to issue additional shares was removed. This property is on the balance sheet as "Oil & gas properties - unproved" for $8,400.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, Delta declared preferred dividends of $20,000 and $120,000, respectively, which were accrued and unpaid.  On June 29, 2011, Delta entered into an agreement, with an effective date of July 1, 2011, with Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd.

In consideration for the conversion, Delta agreed to pay VOMF total consideration of $250,000, $50,000 of which was paid on July 1, 2011, and the $200,000 remainder is due and payable at the rate of $20,000 per month. On February 23, 2012, Delta completed the agreement with VOMF.

To the extent that we make any forward-looking statements in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Quarterly Report, we emphasize that forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and our actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements.

Generally, forward-looking statements include phrases with words such as "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "plan", "believe", "seek", "estimate" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
 
Overview
 
American International Industries, Inc., organized under the laws of the State of Nevada in September 1994, is a diversified corporation with interests in industrial companies, oil and gas interests, oilfield supply and service companies, and interests in undeveloped real estate in the Galveston Bay, Texas area. The Company’s business strategy is to acquire controlling equity interests in undervalued companies and take an active role in its new subsidiaries to improve their growth, by providing its subsidiaries with access to capital, leveraging synergies and providing its subsidiaries with the Company's management expertise.
 
American International Industries, Inc. is a holding company and has three reporting segments and corporate overhead:
 
    ·  Northeastern Plastics ("NPI") - a wholly-owned subsidiary, is a supplier of automotive after-market products and consumer durable goods products to retailers and wholesalers in the automotive after-market and in the consumer durable electrical products markets;
    ·  Delta Seaboard International ("Delta") - a 86.8% owned subsidiary, was an onshore rig-based well-servicing contracting company providing services to the oil and gas industry; As of June 30, 2012, Delta Seaboard Well Service, Inc. ("DSWSI"), a Texas corporation was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delta.
    ·  American International Texas Properties, Inc. ("AITP") - a wholly-owned real estate subsidiary, with real estate holdings in Harris, Galveston, and Waller Counties in Texas.
    ·  Corporate overhead - American's investment holdings including financing current operations and expansion of its current holdings as well as evaluating the feasibility of entering into additional businesses.  Corporate overhead also includes Brenham Oil & Gas ("BOG"), a division that currently owns minimal oil, gas and mineral royalty interests. Through Brenham Oil & Gas, American is engaged in negotiations with financial institutions for the purpose of financing potential acquisitions of existing oil and gas properties and reserves.  The Company is seeking to acquire a portfolio of oil and gas assets in North America and West Africa and large oil concessions in West Africa. American owns 58,680,074 shares of common stock, representing 53.2% of BOG’s total outstanding shares.
 
On April 3, 2012, Delta entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to sell the assets and liabilities of DSWSI (Notes 1 and 7).  The assets and liabilities of DSWSI are classified as assets held for sale and associated liabilities of assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 in accordance with Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations (ASC 205-20). DSWSI's net loss of $922,517 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and a net loss of $7,167 and net income of $137,033 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively,  are included in discontinued operations.
 
On April 22, 2011, American entered into a stock purchase agreement, whereby Joe Hoover, President of Downhole Completion Products, Inc. ("DCP), purchased for $5,000 American's 80% ownership of DCP's assets and associated liabilities. DCP's net loss of $4,410 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is included in discontinued operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, American received the $5,000 for the purchase. This is included as income from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. American forgave the $55,000 promissory note owed by Joe Hoover and this is included as a loss in discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
The historical financial statements of the Company include the acquisitions of acquired companies as of the effective dates of the purchases, and the results of those companies subsequent to closing, as these transactions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

We intend to continue our efforts to grow through the acquisition of additional and complimentary businesses and by expanding the operations of our existing businesses, especially in the energy sector. We will evaluate whether additional and complimentary businesses can be acquired at reasonable terms and conditions, at attractive earnings multiples and which present opportunity for growth and profitability. These efforts will include the application of improved access to financing and management expertise afforded by synergistic relationships between the Company and its subsidiaries. Potential acquisitions are evaluated to determine that they would be accretive to earnings and equity, that the projected growth in earnings and cash flows are attainable and consistent with our expectations to yield desired returns to investors, and that management is capable of guiding the growth of operations, working in concert with others in the group to maximize opportunity. Periodically as opportunities present themselves, we may sell or merge the subsidiaries in order to bring value to the holding company and our shareholders and to enable the Company to acquire larger companies.
 
The Company’s real estate investment policy historically has been to acquire real estate for resale based upon our view of market conditions. Such properties are listed on the balance sheet as real estate acquired for resale.  Real estate is not a segment of the Company's business.
 
We expect to face competition for acquisition candidates, which may limit the number of acquisition opportunities and may lead to higher acquisition prices. There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify, acquire or manage profitably of additional businesses or to integrate any acquired businesses into the Company without substantial costs, delays or other operational or financial problems. Further, acquisitions involve a number of risks, including possible adverse effects on our operating results, diversion of management's attention, failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities. Some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The timing, size and success of our acquisition efforts and the associated capital commitments cannot be readily predicted. It is our current intention to finance future acquisitions by using shares of our common stock and other forms of financing as the consideration to be paid. In the event that the common stock does not have and maintain a sufficient market value, or potential acquisition candidates are otherwise unwilling to accept common stock as part of the consideration for the sale of their businesses, we may be required to seek other forms of financing in order to proceed with our acquisition program. If we do not have sufficient cash resources, our growth could be limited unless we are able to obtain additional equity or debt financing at terms acceptable to the Company.
 
Corporate overhead includes our investment activities for financing current operations and expansion of our current holdings, as well as evaluating the feasibility of acquiring additional businesses.

The increase in margins was primarily due to a better product mix at NPI.  NPI has been able to move away from commodity-based products and toward more unique items, for which NPI receives higher margins.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity is our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet the Company’s obligations and commitments, or obtain appropriate financing. Currently, our liquidity needs arise primarily from working capital requirements, debt service on indebtedness, and capital expenditures. We have funded these liquidity requirements from proceeds from the sale of Delta of $1,600,000, proceeds from net borrowings under lines of credit agreements of $1,094,000, and proceeds from the sale of real estate held for sale of $462,471.
 
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $3,510 compared to $2,297 for the same period in the prior year. The Company has no major capital expenditure commitments for the next 12 months.
 
Net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $1,748,654 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $2,652,247 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was derived primarily from our net loss from continuing operations of $1,596,529, an increase in inventories at NPI of $418,288, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $163,340, due to collections of the higher seasonal revenues at NPI during the fourth quarter of 2011.  Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes a one-time lump sum payment of $1,250,000 for a lawsuit settlement that was accrued as of December 31, 2010. Additionally, accounts payable decreased significantly due to payments made in the six months ended June 30, 2011 for expenses incurred during the six months ended December 31, 2010 in support of higher revenues at NPI.
 
The Company's prospects for selling real estate from its portfolio have improved significantly due to infrastructure developments in close proximity to these properties. Management believes that demand and prices for real estate will increase during the next 12 to 24 months from the date of this report. The appraised values of the Company's portfolio of real estate are significantly higher than the value recorded on the books.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, our investing activities provided cash of $2,089,018, compared to $217,787 during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Our financing activities provided cash of $867,080 during the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $1,438,345 during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
NPI has a line of credit from Trustmark Bank in the amount of $2,250,000, which had a maturity date in April 2013.
 
We believe that our cash on hand, operating cashflows, and credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our operations, service our debt, and fund planned capital expenditures for at least 12 months from the date of this report.
 
Total assets at June 30, 2012 were $17,928,195, compared to $20,866,526 at December 31, 2011, representing a decrease of $2,938,331.  At June 30, 2012, consolidated working capital was $12,603,200, compared to working capital of $9,173,114 at December 31, 2011, representing an increase of $3,430,086.  Total assets as of June 30, 2012, included real estate held for sale of $7,385,031 (see Note 6), inventories of $2,323,303, accounts receivable of $1,047,660, cash and cash equivalents of $2,076,690, $144,744 of trading securities, $1,996,300 in notes receivable, and $2,001,824 of property and equipment.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
American International Industries, Inc. v. William W. Botts . American filed this lawsuit against William W. Botts (“Botts”) seeking damages as a result of a Stock Purchase Agreement and Consulting Agreement that American entered into with Botts on September 12, 2007. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, American gave Botts $1,000,000 in cash and 288,000 shares of restricted AMIN stock (240,000 original shares plus a 20% stock dividend) for 170,345 shares of OI Corporation. As part of the original agreement, Botts had the right to sell the 288,000 shares back to American for $4.17 per share. Under the Consulting Agreement, American agreed to pay Botts $14,000 per month, plus expenses for performing consulting services. On or about November 5, 2008, American paid Botts $100,000 to terminate the Consulting Agreement to stop the accrual of monthly consulting payments to Botts. Effective February 25, 2011, the parties settled the proceedings against each other, pursuant to which American paid Botts $1,250,000 and executed a $400,000 one year promissory note (note 10) with 5% annual interest paid in monthly installments to Botts due by February 1, 2012. On July 1, 2012, the parties reached another settlement, pursuant to which American paid Botts $115,000, of which $65,719 was for payment of the balance of the note.  The remaining $49,281 was accrued and recorded as Botts lawsuit settlement expense as of and during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The 288,000 restricted American shares in Botts name were transferred to the Dror Family Trust in consideration for the cash payment to American of approximately $1,400,000 and the issuance to certain Dror related entities and an entity controlled by Mr. Dror's brother, of 1,100,000 restricted American shares. The cash proceeds from the restricted share sale were used to fund the settlements to Botts.
 
American International Industries, Inc. v. Rubicon Financial Incorporated On March 5, 2010, American filed suit against Rubicon Financial Corporation (OTCBB: RBCF.OB), a Nevada corporation with offices in Irvine, CA ("Rubicon"), and Rubicon's control person, chief executive officer and primary financial officer, Joe Mangiapane, Jr., in the District Court, 281st Judicial District, Harris County, TX, for breach of contract, rescission, fraudulent inducement, common law fraud and fraud in the sale of securities. The action related to the acquisition by American on November 27, 2007, of 1,000,000 restricted shares of Rubicon's common stock for a $1,000,000 cash payment and the issuance of 200,000 restricted shares of American's common stock, valued at $4.90 per common share based upon the closing market price on the date of acquisition.

On August 19, 2011, American was granted a default judgment for fraud and breach of contract against Rubicon in the amount of $2,000,000 plus attorney's fees and accrued interest at 5% per annum by the 281st District Court, following which American, through California counsel, commenced a separate proceeding seeking to enforce the judgment against Rubicon in a court of competent jurisdiction in Orange County, CA.
   
Rubicon has filed a separate action with the same District Court in Harris County, TX, seeking to have the judgment vacated and seeking sanctions against American. On May 1, 2012, the default judgment was vacated by the District Court but Rubicon's demand for sanctions was denied. The District Court determined that American would not suffer injury.

On May 24, 2012, American filed a motion seeking an order in effect rescinding its May 1, 2012 order that had vacated the default judgment against Rubicon. On July 12, 2012, the Court granted American's motion and ordered a new trial on the issue of whether Rubicon was negligent in failing to appear before the Court in the proceeding that resulted in the grant of the $2 million default judgment on August 19, 2011.

As a result of the July 12, 2012 order, American has been informed by its Texas counsel that the default judgment against Rubicon remains in full force and effect. American has also been informed by its California counsel that it plans to file a motion seeking a stay in the California proceeding pending the final determination of the District Court in Harris County, TX.

American believes that it will prevail on the merits in this proceeding against Rubicon in the District Court, Harris County, and that it will be able to successfully enforce a final judgment of approximately $2 million plus interest in California.
