Current report
Oil and gas production expense decreased $2.4 million, or 18.88% to $10.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $12.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and decreased $4.3 million, or 12.6% to $30.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $34.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These changes are a reflection of fewer workover related costs completed in 2025.
Current report
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense decreased $4.1 million, or 22.65% to $14.1 million for the third quarter 2025 from $18.2 million for the third quarter 2024 and increased $9.4 million or 20.50% to $55.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, from $45.8 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2024. These fluctuations reflect production and reserves added from new wells brought on line offset by the decline of existing production.
Current report
Interest and other income of $1.55 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2025 includes distributions from Alabama Shopping Center Associates limited partnership, generated by the partnership's sale of the Prattville, Alabama center.

Recent Activity
Previous report
Oil and gas production expense decreased $2.3 million, or 18.5% to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and $1.8 million, or 8.4% to $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $21.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. These changes reflect costs related to the new wells that have been placed on production offset by cost savings related to wells that have been plugged.
Previous report
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased $3.5 million or 20.2% to $20.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $17.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and increased $13.5 million, or 48.9% to $41.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $27.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase is due to an increase in production volumes added from new wells being placed on-line since June 30, 2024, and due to changes in the overall depletion rate resulting from the costs of these wells being added to the depletion base plus revisions to overall reserves in place.

The Company is actively developing additional reserves of its leasehold acreage positions in Texas and Oklahoma. In the Permian Basin of West Texas, the Company maintains an acreage position of approximately 17,138 gross (9,622 net) acres, 89.3% of which is located in Reagan, Upton, Martin, and Midland counties of Texas where our current horizontal drilling activity is focused. In addition to the wells currently being drilled or completed, we believe this acreage has the resource potential to support the drilling of as many as 100 additional horizontal wells.

In addition to this activity, in June of 2024, we began participation with Apache in the drilling of six additional 3-mile-long laterals in Upton County on our “Mt. Moran” tract. Three of these wells were completed in late December 2024 and three were completed in January of 2025. All six new “Mt. Moran” wells are producing as of April 1, 2025. In these six Mt. Moran wells, the Company has an average of 51.16% interest and will in total invest approximately $40.5 million. In addition, in November of 2024, in Reagan County, we began participating with Double Eagle in 15 “OG” horizontal wells: eight are 2.5-mile-long laterals, and seven are 2-mile-long laterals. In each of these 15 “OG” wells the Company has approximately 23% interest and in total will invest roughly $23 million through completion of production facilities. Each of these 15 horizontals are on production as of June 1, 2025.

In the second half of 2025, we are anticipating the start of 15 new horizontals in the Midland Basin of West Texas operated by Double Eagle on our “Full House” tract in Reagan County in which the Company will participate with approximately 27% interest and invest $30.1 million. Drilling has been completed on all 15 wells and completion is in progress as of August 1, 2025. These wells are expected to be on production late third quarter of this year. In addition to the Reagan County activity, the company is participating in eight (8) “Horseshoe” wells in Midland County with Vital Energy. Drilling activity with these wells began in the second quarter and will complete in early third quarter of 2025 with production early fourth quarter. The Company has an average of 8.2% interest in these eight (8) wells and will invest approximately $5.4 million in Midland County.

Previous wording
Future drilling activity on our leasehold acreage in West Texas is expected in the next few years as well. In particular, based on activity west of our acreage in Reagan County, and a recent deep test by Double Eagle on our joint leasehold, we anticipate that proposals will soon be put forward for the drilling of between 36 and 45 new horizontals that will target the Wolfcamp “D” pay zone in Reagan County and perhaps an additional test well or two in one or more of the other undeveloped pay horizons. In this future activity, we would expect to invest in excess of $100 million. In addition, the Company has identified 25 horizontal locations across our acreage in Upton and Martin counties that could be drilled in this same time frame. These additional wells will require an investment of approximately $76 million. In total, therefore, with approximately $48 million to be invested in the various wells drilling or to begin drilling in 2025, the $100 million in Wolfcamp “D” development, and the $76 million in 25 other near-term wells expected in the 2026-2027 timeframe, we anticipate investing approximately $224 million in horizontal drilling in West Texas over the next several years.

Previous wording
The Company maintains a Credit Agreement providing for a reserves-based line of credit totaling $300 million, with a current borrowing base of $115 million. As of August 14, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under this line. The bank reviews the borrowing base semi-annually and, at their discretion, may decrease or propose an increase to the borrowing base relative to a re-determined estimate of proved oil and gas reserves. The new borrowing base review is currently in progress and no change in the borrowing base is expected. Our oil and gas properties are pledged as collateral for the line of credit and we are subject to certain financial and operational covenants defined in the agreement. We are currently in compliance with these covenants and expect to be in compliance over the next twelve months. If we do not comply with these covenants on a continuing basis, the lenders have the right to refuse to advance additional funds under the facility and/or declare all principal and interest immediately due and payable. Our borrowing base may decrease as a result of lower commodity prices, operating difficulties, declines in reserves, lending requirements or regulations, the issuance of new indebtedness or for other reasons set forth in our revolving credit agreement. In the event of a decrease in our borrowing base due to declines in commodity prices or otherwise, our ability to borrow under our revolving credit facility may be limited and we could be required to repay any indebtedness in excess of the re-determined borrowing base.
