(1)Equivalent oil reserves are defined as six MCF of natural gas and 42 gallons of NGLs to one barrel of oil conversion ratio which reflects energy equivalence and not price equivalence. Natural gas prices per MCF and NGL prices per barrel often differ significantly from the equivalent amount of oil.
(2)Amounts exclude the impact of cash paid or received on the settlement of derivative contracts since we did not elect to apply hedge accounting.

Revenues

Crude oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $20.7 million and $20.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with the increase in revenues due to an increase in production volumes partially offset by decreases in our average realized price per BOE. Average daily equivalent production increased 6.4% to 7,380 BOEPD in the current year period from 6,935 BOEPD in the prior period primarily as a result production from our Minerals Acquisition in August 2025 and TexMex Acquisition in April 2025. Our average realized commodity price (excluding the impact of derivative contracts) for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased approximately $1.32 per BOE, or 4.2%, over the prior year period as our realized crude oil decreased 15.7% and realized NGL prices decreased 12.4% from the three months ended December 31,2024. The overall decrease in our realized crude oil and NGL prices was partially offset by a 21.6% increase in our realized natural gas prices over the prior period.

Lease Operating Costs

Ad valorem and production taxes were $0.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The $0.8 million decrease is directly related to a reduction of calendar years 2024 and 2025 ad valorem taxes which were passed along from the operator of our Barnett Shale natural gas properties. On a per unit basis, ad valorem and production taxes were $0.87 per BOE and $2.26 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Gathering, transportation and other costs were $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. These costs are gathering, transportation and processing fees we incur primarily for our natural gas producing properties. The decrease is primarily due to decreased natural gas sales at Jonah Field and Barnett Shale. On a per unit basis, gathering, transportation and other costs were $3.93 per BOE and $4.53 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Other lease operating costs were $8.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $8.5 million for the three months ended December 31,2024. Other lease operating costs decreased primarily due to the cessation of CO 2 purchases at Delhi late during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, we had net CO 2 purchases of $1.1 million. Partially offsetting the overall decrease in other lease operating costs were increases due tothe TexMex Acquisition in April 2025, which increased other lease operating costs by $1.1 million over the prior year period. On a per unit basis, other lease operating costs decreased to $12.16 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2025 from $13.26 per BOE in the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Depletion of Full Cost Proved Oil and Natural Gas Properties

Depletion expense increased from $5.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 to $5.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to an increase in the depletion rate and decrease in reserves volumes. On a per unit basis, depletion expense was $8.15 per BOE and $7.87 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $2.0 million for each of the periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. On a per unit basis, general and administrative expenses were $2.91 per BOE and $3.13 per BOE for the three months ended December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease on a per unit basis is primarily the result of the increase in production for the current year period.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $0.6 million compared to $0.7 million for theyear-ago period. The decrease is due to a decrease in the awards granted in the current fiscal period compared to the year-ago period.

Net Gain (Loss) on Derivative Contracts

We utilize commodity derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices. Financial hedges are a requirement under our Senior Secured Credit Facility and help establish commodity price floors, contributing to stable cash flows when derivative contracts are settled. We have elected not to designate our open derivative contracts for hedge accounting, and accordingly, we recorded the net change in the mark-to-market valuation of the derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The amounts recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations related to derivative contracts represent the (i) gains (losses) related to fair value adjustments on our open, or unrealized, derivative contracts, and (ii) gains (losses) on settlements of derivative contracts for positions that have settled or been realized. The table below summarizes our net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on derivative contracts as well as the impact of net realized gains (losses) on our average realized prices for the periods presented. As a result of our recent acquisitions and the corresponding borrowings on our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we were required by terms in our Senior Secured Credit Facility to hedge a portion of our production. As of December 31, 2025, we had $3.3 million derivative assets, $3.2 million of which was classified as current, and $2.0 million derivative liabilities, $1.5 million of which was classified as current. Subsequent to the end of the quarter through February 2026, we have seen increased volatility in the crude oil and natural gas commodity markets, and we expect to see continued volatility in the fair value of our derivative contracts.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily due to additional borrowings drawn on our Senior Secured Credit Facility to finance our Minerals Acquisition in August 2025.

Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recognized income tax expense of $0.8 million on net income before income taxes of $1.9 million compared to income tax benefit of $0.7 million on net losses before income taxes of $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The effective tax rates were 44.0% and 28.0% for three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate from the prior year period is due to projected higher state income taxes in Oklahoma associated with the Minerals Acquisition in August 2025. We continue to evaluate our tax provision on a quarterly basis and adjust our effective tax rate for any given changes in facts and circumstances that are expected in the future.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

Revenues

Crude oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $42.0 million and $42.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with the decrease in revenues due to decreases in our average realized price per BOE partially offset by increases in production volumes. Average daily equivalent production increased 1.9% from 7,212 BOEPD in the prior year period to 7,348 BOEPD in the current period primarily as a result ofproduction from our Minerals Acquisition in August 2025 and TexMex Acquisition in April 2025. Our average realized commodity price (excluding the impact of derivative contracts) for the six months ended December 31, 2025 decreased approximately $0.74 per BOE, or 2.3%, over the prior year period as our realized crude oil decreased 14.8% and realized NGL prices decreased 10.4% from the six months ended December 31,2024. The overall decrease in our crude oil and NGL realized prices was partially offset by a 31.0% increase in our realized natural gas prices over the prior period.

Lease Operating Costs

Ad valorem and production taxes were $2.0 million and $2.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease is primarily related to a reduction of calendar years 2024 and 2025 ad valorem taxes which were passed along from the operator of our Barnett Shale natural gas properties. On a per unit basis, ad valorem and production taxes were $1.49 per BOE and $2.15 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Gathering, transportation and other costs were $5.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $5.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. These costs are gathering, transportation and processing fees we incur primarily for our natural gas producing properties. The decrease is primarily due to decreased natural gas sales at Jonah Field partially offset by increased natural gas sales at Barnett Shale. On a per unit basis, gathering, transportation and other costs were $4.11 per BOE and $4.28 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Other lease operating costs were $17.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $16.0 million for the six months ended December 31,2024. Other lease operating costs increased primarily due tothe TexMex Acquisition in April 2025, which increased other lease operating costs by $2.4 million over the prior year period. Partially offsetting the overall increase in other lease operating costs is the cessation of CO 2 purchases at Delhi late during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. For the six months ended December 31, 2024, we had net CO 2 purchases of $1.1 million. On a per unit basis, other lease operating costs increased to $12.60 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2025 from $12.09 per BOE in the six months ended December 31, 2024.

Depletion of Full Cost Proved Oil and Natural Gas Properties

Depletion expense increased from $10.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to $11.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to an increase in the depletion rate and decrease in reserves volumes. On a per unit basis, depletion expense was $8.20 per BOE and $7.80 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $3.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The decrease in the current period is primarily due to a decrease in professional fees. On a per unit basis, general and administrative expenses were $2.79 per BOE and $2.99 per BOE for the six months ended December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively.

Net Gain (Loss) on Derivative Contracts

We utilize commodity derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices. Financial hedges are a requirement under our Senior Secured Credit Facility and help establish commodity price floors, contributing to stable cash flows when derivative contracts are settled. We have elected not to designate our open derivative contracts for hedge accounting, and accordingly, we recorded the net change in the mark-to-market valuation of the derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The amounts recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations related to derivative contracts represent the (i) gains (losses) related to fair value adjustments on our open, or unrealized, derivative contracts, and (ii) gains (losses) on settlements of derivative contracts for positions that have settled or been realized. The table below summarizes our net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on derivative contracts as well as the impact of net realized gains (losses) on our average realized prices for the periods presented. As a result of our recent acquisitions and the corresponding borrowings on our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we were required by terms in our Senior Secured Credit Facility to hedge a portion of our production. As of December 31, 2025, we had $3.3 million derivative assets, $3.2 million of which was classified as current, and $2.0 million derivative liabilities, $1.5 million of which was classified as current. Subsequent to the end of the quarter through February 2026, we have seen increased volatility in the crude oil and natural gas commodity markets, and we expect to see continued volatility in the fair value of our derivative contracts.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $0.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily due to additional borrowings drawn on our Senior Secured Credit Facility to finance our Minerals Acquisition in August 2025. The weighted average interest rate on our borrowings was 6.88% for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to 7.80% for the six months ended December 31, 2024.

Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

For the six months ended December 31, 2025, we recognized income tax expense of $1.2 million on net income before income taxes of $3.1 million compared to income tax expense of $0.1 million on net income before income taxes of $0.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. The effective tax rates were 38.9% and 31.4% for six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate from the prior year period is due to projected higher state income taxes in Oklahoma associated with the Minerals Acquisition. We continue to evaluate our tax provision on a quarterly basis and adjust our effective tax rate for any given changes in facts and circumstances that are expected in the future.
