Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Mexco Energy Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Nature of Operations
Mexco Energy Corporation (a Colorado corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Forman Energy Corporation (a New York corporation), Southwest Texas Disposal Corporation (a Texas corporation), and TBO Oil & Gas, LLC (a Texas limited liability company) (collectively, the “Company”) are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of crude oil, natural gas, condensate, and natural gas liquids (“NGLs”). Most of the Company’s oil and gas interests are centered in West Texas and Southeastern New Mexico; however, the Company owns producing properties and undeveloped acreage in fourteen states. All of Company’s oil and gas interests are operated by others.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mexco Energy Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions associated with the consolidated operations have been eliminated.
Estimates and Assumptions. In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management is required to make informed judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In addition, significant estimates are used in determining proved oil and gas reserves. Although management believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those estimates. The estimate of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves, which is used to compute depreciation, depletion, amortization, and impairment of oil and gas properties, is the most significant of the estimates and assumptions that affect these reported results.
**Interim Financial Statements.**In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2025, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 was derived from the audited balance sheet filed in the Company’s 2025 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in more detail in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. However, the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K.
Oil and Gas Properties. The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, all acquisition, exploration, and development costs are capitalized and amortized on a composite unit of production method based on proved oil and natural gas reserves. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to exploration and development activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. The carrying amount of oil and gas properties also includes estimated asset retirement costs recorded based on the fair value of the asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) when incurred. Sales of oil and natural gas properties, whether or not being amortized currently, are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and natural gas. This includes any sales of properties such as Term Assignments and Assignments, Bill of Sales and Conveyances. Depletion of evaluated oil and natural gas properties is computed on the units of production method, whereby capitalized costs plus estimated future development costs are amortized over total proved reserves.
In addition, capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes are not allowed to exceed an amount (the full cost ceiling) equal to the sum of: 1) the present value of estimated future net revenues discounted at ten percent computed in compliance with SEC guidelines; 2) plus the cost of properties not being amortized; 3) plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; 4) less income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the properties.
No impairments on oil and natural gas properties as a result of the ceiling test were recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

**Investments.**The Company accounts for investments of less than 3% in limited liability companies at cost. The Company has no control of the limited liability companies. The cost of the investment is recorded as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets and when income from the investment is received, it is immediately recognized on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company evaluates investments for an impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an investment may not be recoverable. Indicators of impairment may include, but are not limited to, sustained declines in market value, investee financial condition and operating performance, industry or economic trends, and other relevant factors.
**Reclassifications.**Certain amounts in prior periods’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations, retained earnings or net cash flows.
Segments. Based on the Company’s organizational structure, the Company has one operating segment, which is crude oil and natural gas development, exploration and production. In addition, the Company has a single, company-wide management team that allocates capital resources to maximize profitability and measures financial performance as a single enterprise.
3. Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) relate to the plugging of wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties. The ARO is included on the consolidated balance sheets with the current portion being included in the accounts payable and other accrued expenses.
The following table provides a rollforward of the AROs for the first three months of fiscal 2026:
| Carrying amount of asset retirement obligations as of April 1, 2025 | $718,842 |
|---|---|
| Liabilities incurred | 862 |

4. Long Term Debt
On December 28, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Agreement”) with West Texas National Bank (“WTNB”), which originally provided for a credit facility of $1,000,000 with a maturity date of December 28, 2021. The Agreement has no monthly commitment reduction and a borrowing base to be evaluated annually. On February 28, 2020, the Agreement was amended to increase the credit facility to $2,500,000, extend the maturity date to March 28, 2023, and increase the borrowing base to $1,500,000. On March 28, 2023, the Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to March 28, 2026.
Under the Agreement, interest on the facility accrues at a rate equal to the prime rate as quoted in the Wall Street Journal plus one-half of one percent (0.5%) floating daily. Interest on the outstanding amount under the Agreement is payable monthly. In addition, the Company will pay an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) times the daily average of the unadvanced amount of the commitment. The unused commitment fee is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter. As of June 30, 2025, there was $1,500,000 available for borrowing by the Company on the facility.
No principal payments are anticipated to be required through the maturity date of the credit facility, March 28, 2026. Upon closing the second amendment to the Agreement, the Company paid a loan origination fee of $9,000 plus legal and recording expenses totaling $12,950, which are amortized over the life of the credit facility.
Amounts borrowed under the Agreement are collateralized by the common stock of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and substantially all of the Company’s oil and gas properties.
The Agreement contains customary covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on change in control, disposition of assets, mergers and reorganizations. The Company is also obligated to meet certain financial covenants under the Agreement and requires senior debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) ratios (Senior Debt/EBITDA) less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00, measured with respect to the four trailing quarters and minimum interest coverage ratios (EBITDA/Interest Expense) of 2.00 to 1.00 for each quarter.
In addition, this Agreement prohibits the Company from paying cash dividends on its common stock without prior written permission of WTNB. The Company obtained written permission from WTNB prior to declaring the regular annual dividend on May 13, 2025, as discussed in Note 10. The Agreement does not permit the Company to enter into hedge agreements covering crude oil and natural gas prices without prior WTNB approval.
There wasno balance outstanding on the credit facility as of June 30, 2025.

6. Leases
The Company leases approximately 4,160 rentable square feet of office space from an unaffiliated third party for our corporate office located in Midland, Texas. This includes 702 square feet of office space shared with and paid by our principal shareholder. In June 2024, the Company agreed to extend its lease at a flat (unescalated) rate for another 36 months. The amended lease now expires on July 31, 2027.
The Company determines an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in operating lease right-of-use asset, operating lease liability, current, and operating lease liability, long-term on the consolidated balance sheet.
Operating lease right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate used at adoption of the renewal was 9%. Significant judgement is required when determining the incremental borrowing rate. Rent expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes to income taxes computed using the federal statutory rate for the three months ended June 30 follows:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Tax expense at federal statutory rate (1) | $72,488 | $83,501 |
| Statutory depletion carryforward | 1,566 | 10,500 |
| Change in valuation allowance | - | - |
| Permanent differences | 9,312 | (3,267) |
| State income expense, net of federal benefit | 21,014 | 15,852 |
| Other | (1,149) | - |
| Total income tax | 103,231 | 106,586 |
| Effective income tax rate (1) | 29.9% | 26.8% |
| (1) | The federal statutory rate was 21% for three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. |
Total income tax expense from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to pre-tax income primarily due to state income taxes, net of federal benefit, and the impact of permanent differences between book and taxable income.
On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill” (“OBBB”) was enacted. The OBBB is a significant piece of legislation that includes significant changes to federal tax policy, environmental funding, and energy development regulations. Key provisions relevant to the crude oil and natural gas industry include (i) tax policy changes that extend and expand components of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and (ii) the introduction of fee and royalty-related provisions aimed at reducing financial and administrative burdens on domestic energy producers. The Company is currently evaluating the full impact of the OBBB on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in its condensed consolidated financial statements.
