Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 10-Q may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “potential” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-Q that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including the expected impact of the war in Ukraine on our business, our industry and the global economy, estimated future net revenues from oil and gas reserves and the present value thereof, future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof), share repurchases, business strategy and measures to implement strategy, competitive strength, goals, expansion and growth of our business and operations, plans, references to future success, reference to intentions as to future matters and other such matters are forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are largely based on our expectations and beliefs concerning future events, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by our management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.
Although we believe our estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. In addition, management's assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure any reader that those statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements due to the factors listed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Item 7. “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q.
All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this Quarterly Report are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.
Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report.
We may use the Investors section of our website (www.gulfportenergy.com) to communicate with investors. It is possible that the financial and other information posted there could be deemed to be material information. The information on our website is not part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Fair Value of Debt
At June 30, 2023, the carrying value of the outstanding debt represented by the 2026 Senior Notes was $549.3 million. Based on the quoted market prices (Level 1), the fair value of the 2026 Senior Notes was determined to be $554.3 million at June 30, 2023.
4.MEZZANINE EQUITY
On the Emergence Date, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State to provide for, among other things, (i) the authority to issue 42 million shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share and (ii) the designation of 110,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share and a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the "Liquidation Preference").
Preferred Stock
On the Emergence Date, the Successor issued 55,000 shares of preferred stock.
Holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly dividends at a rate of 10% per annum of the Liquidation Preference with respect to cash dividends and 15% per annum of the Liquidation Preference with respect to dividends paid in kind as additional shares of preferred stock (“PIK Dividends”). Gulfport currently has the option to pay either cash dividends or PIK Dividends on a quarterly basis.
Each holder of shares of preferred stock has the right (the “Conversion Right”), at its option and at any time, to convert all or a portion of the shares of preferred stock that it holds into a number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Liquidation Preference times (ii) an amount equal to one (1) plus the Per Share Makewhole Amount (as defined in the Preferred Terms) on the date of conversion, by (y) $14.00 per share (as may be adjusted under the Preferred Terms). The shares of preferred stock outstanding at June 30, 2023 would convert to approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock if all holders of preferred stock exercised their Conversion Right.

Table of Contents
Gulfport shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding shares of preferred stock by notice to the holders of preferred stock, at the greater of (i) the aggregate value of the preferred stock, calculated by the Current Market Price (as defined in the Preferred Terms) of the number of shares of common stock into which, subject to redemption, such preferred stock would have been converted if such shares were converted pursuant to the Conversion Right at the time of such redemption and (ii) (y) if the date of such redemption is on or prior to the three year anniversary of the Emergence Date, the sum of the Liquidation Preference plus the sum of all unpaid PIK Dividends through the three year anniversary of the Emergence Date, or (x) if the date of such redemption is after the three year anniversary of the Emergence Date, the Liquidation Preference (the “Redemption Price”).
Following the Emergence Date, if there is a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Preferred Terms), Gulfport is required to redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding shares of preferred stock by cash payment of the Redemption Price per share of preferred stock within three (3) business days of the occurrence of such Fundamental Change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a redemption pursuant to the preceding sentence, if Gulfport lacks sufficient cash to redeem all outstanding shares of preferred stock, the Company is required to redeem a pro rata portion of each holder’s shares of preferred stock.
The preferred stock has no stated maturity and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless repurchased or redeemed by Gulfport or converted into common stock.
The preferred stock has been classified as mezzanine equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets due to the redemption features noted above.
Dividends and Conversions
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid $1.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of cash dividends to holders of our preferred stock.
The following table summarizes activity of the Company’s preferred stock for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Preferred stock at December 31, 2022 | 52,295 |

Common Stock Offering
On June 26, 2023, Gulfport completed an underwritten public offering of 1.5 million shares of its common stock by certain stockholders at a price to the public of $95.00 per share. Gulfport did not sell any of its common stock as part of this offering and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares sold by the selling stockholders.
Concurrent with the closing of the offering, Gulfport purchased 263,158 shares of its common stock at $95.00 per share. The repurchase is part of the Company's existing $400 million share repurchase program discussed below.
Share Repurchase Program
In November 2021 the Company's Board of Directors approved the Repurchase Program to acquire up to $100 million of common stock and subsequently increased the authorization to $300 million, extending through June 30, 2023. On February 27, 2023, the Board of Directors approved an increase to the authorization up to $400 million. The additional $100 million authorization expires on March 31, 2024. Purchases under the Repurchase Program may be made from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, and will be subject to available liquidity, market conditions, credit agreement restrictions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. The Repurchase Program does not require the Company to acquire any specific number of shares of common stock. The Company intends to purchase shares under the Repurchase Program with available funds while maintaining sufficient liquidity to fund its capital development program. The Repurchase Program may be suspended from time to time, modified, extended or discontinued by the Board of Directors at any time.
The following table summarizes activity under the Repurchase Program for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (number of shares and dollar value of shares purchased shown in thousands):

Second quarter 2023 | 442 |  |  | 41,358 |  |  | 93.67 |
Total | 901 |  |  | $ | 74,231 |  |  | $ | 82.42 |

6.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
As of the Emergence Date, the Board of Directors adopted the Incentive Plan with a share reserve equal to 2.8 million shares of common stock. The Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalents and performance awards or any combination of the foregoing. The Company has granted both restricted stock units and performance vesting restricted stock units to employees and directors pursuant to the Incentive Plan, as discussed below. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company's stock-based compensation expense was $3.0 million and $5.6 million, of which the Company capitalized $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, relating to its exploration and development efforts.

Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock units awarded under the Incentive Plan generally vest over a period of 3 or 4 years in the case of employees and 4 years in the case of directors upon the recipient meeting applicable service requirements. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded ratably over the service period. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units represents the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of the grant. Unrecognized compensation expense as of June 30, 2023, was $15.7 million. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.23 years.
Performance Vesting Restricted Stock Units
The Company has awarded performance vesting restricted stock units to certain of its executive officers under the Incentive Plan. The number of shares of common stock issued pursuant to the award will be based on a combination of (i) the Company's total shareholder return ("TSR") and (ii) the Company's relative total shareholder return ("RTSR") for the performance period. Participants will earn from 0% to 200% of the target award based on the Company's TSR and RTSR ranking compared to the TSR of the companies in the Company's designated peer group at the end of the performance period. Awards will be earned and vested at the end of a three-year performance period, subject to earlier termination of the performance period in the event of a change in control. The grant date fair values were determined using the Monte Carlo simulation method and are being recorded ratably over the performance period.

Table of Contents
The table below summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation to determine the grant date fair value of awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Grant date | January 24, 2023 | March 3, 2023 | April 3, 2023
Forecast period (years) | 3 | 3 | 3
Risk-free interest rates | 3.88% | 4.64% | 3.79%
Implied equity volatility | 87.2% | 86.4% | 70.8%
Stock price on the date of grant | $72.99 | $82.20 | $79.50

Unrecognized compensation expense as of June 30, 2023, related to performance vesting restricted shares was $7.4 million. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.99 years.
7.RESTRUCTURING COSTS
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Gulfport recognized $2.9 million and $4.8 million, respectively, in personnel-related restructuring expenses associated with changes in the organizational structure and leadership team resulting from the appointment of Gulfport's new CEO in January 2023. Of these expenses, $0.8 million and $1.3 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, resulted from accelerated vesting of certain share-based grants, which are non-cash charges. As of June 30, 2023, there were no remaining employee termination liabilities for the impacted employees.
8.EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic income or loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed as (i) net income or loss less (ii) dividends paid to holders of preferred stock less (iii) net income or loss attributable to participating securities divided by (iv) weighted average basic shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed as (i) basic net income or loss attributable to common stockholders plus (ii) diluted adjustments to income allocable to participating securities divided by (iii) weighted average diluted shares outstanding. The "if-converted" method is used to determine the dilutive impact for the Company's convertible preferred stock and the treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive impact of unvested restricted stock.
There were 0.3 million and 0.2 million shares of restricted stock that were considered dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. There were 0.2 million shares of restricted stock that were considered dilutive for the three months ended June 30, 2022. There were no shares of restricted stock that were considered dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2022. There were 3.3 million potential shares of common stock issuable due to the Company's convertible preferred stock for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. There were 3.8 million potential shares of common stock issuable due to the Company's convertible preferred stock for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. There were 0.2 million shares of restricted stock that were considered anti-dilutive during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

9.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
Future Firm Transportation and Gathering Agreements
The Company has contractual commitments with midstream and pipeline companies for future gathering and transportation of natural gas from the Company's producing wells to downstream markets. Under certain of these agreements, the Company has minimum daily volume commitments. The Company is also obligated under certain of these arrangements to pay a demand charge for firm capacity rights on pipeline systems regardless of the amount of pipeline capacity utilized by the Company. If the Company does not utilize the capacity, it often can release it to other counterparties, thus reducing the cost of these commitments. Working interest owners and royalty interest owners, where appropriate, will be responsible for their proportionate share of these costs. Commitments related to future firm transportation and gathering agreements are not recorded as obligations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets; however, costs associated with utilized future firm transportation and gathering agreements are reflected in the Company's estimates of proved reserves.

Table of Contents
A summary of these commitments at June 30, 2023, are set forth in the table below (in thousands):

Remaining 2023 | $ | 113,028 |
2024 | 218,797 |
2025 | 137,795 |
2026 | 134,324 |
2027 | 136,492 |
Thereafter | 737,104 |
Total | $ | 1,477,540 |

Other Operational Commitments
The Company entered into various contractual commitments to purchase inventory and other material to be used in future activities. The Company's commitment to purchase these materials spans 2023 and 2024, with approximately $39.6 million remaining in 2023 and $31.2 million for 2024.
Contingencies
Litigation and Regulatory Proceedings
As part of its Chapter 11 Cases and restructuring efforts, the Company filed motions to reject certain firm transportation agreements between the Company and affiliates of TC Energy Corporation ("TC") and Rover Pipeline LLC ("Rover"). During the third quarter of 2021, Gulfport finalized a settlement agreement with TC that was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on September 21, 2021. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, Gulfport and TC agreed that the firm transportation contracts between them would be rejected without any further payment or obligation by either party, and TC assigned its damages claims from such rejection to Gulfport. In exchange, Gulfport agreed to make a payment of $43.8 million in cash to TC. The $43.8 million was paid on October 7, 2021. Gulfport expects to receive distributions for a significant portion of such amounts through future distributions with respect to the assigned claims pursuant to the terms of the Plan that became effective in May 2021. Any future distributions will be recognized once received by Gulfport. In February 2022, Gulfport received an initial distribution of $11.5 million from the above-mentioned claim, which is included in Other, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
During the first quarter of 2023, Gulfport finalized a settlement agreement with Rover that was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on February 21, 2023. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, Gulfport and Rover agreed that the firm transportation contracts between them would be rejected. The Bankruptcy Court Order provided Rover will: (a) receive an allowed $85.9 million Class 4A General Unsecured Claim (the “Rover Unsecured Claim”), (b) receive an administrative claim of $1.0 million payable by Gulfport, and (c) draw the full amount of its credit assurance. Gulfport paid the $1.0 million administrative claim during the first quarter, and has no further obligations to Rover. The Rover Unsecured Claim will receive distributions under the Plan payable from the liquidating trust, not Gulfport. On February 24, 2023, Gulfport received an additional $17.8 million interim distribution for its TC claim. The timing and amount of any future distributions to Gulfport are not certain, and the total amount received will be impacted by the liquidating trust’s distributions and resolution of other remaining bankruptcy claims. These payments are included in Other, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Table of Contents
The Company has been named as a defendant in three separate complaints, two filed by Siltstone Resources, LLC, and the third filed by the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) (together, the "Complaints"). The Complaints all arise from restrictive covenants in favor of OPWC generally prohibiting any transfer and any use inconsistent with a green park space. OPWC filed crossclaims against Gulfport in the Siltstone matters alleging that the transfer of the mineral rights and the development of oil and gas on the property violated these restrictive covenants. On June 19, 2018, October 25, 2019, and March 15, 2019, each trial court in the Complaints entered judgment in favor of the Company and other defendants, finding the restrictive covenants only applied to the surface estate. OPWC appealed each judgement to the respective Ohio Courts of Appeal where the trial court decisions were reversed in favor of OPWC. The Company and certain other parties to the Complaints appealed the appellate court decisions to the Ohio Supreme Court. On February 23, 2022, the Ohio Supreme Court affirmed the first appellate decision and remanded the case back to the trial court. On December 27, 2022, the Ohio Supreme Court affirmed the other two complaints and remanded the matters back to the trial court. OPWC is seeking both injunctive relief to enforce the restrictive covenants and equitable relief. Liquidated damages were successfully discharged in the Company’s Chapter 11 proceedings through May 17, 2021. On July 18, 2023, OPWC filed a notice with the court stating that it will no longer be pursuing claims for injunctive relief.
The Company, along with other oil and gas companies, have been named as a defendant in a number of lawsuits where Plaintiffs assert their respective leases are limited to the Marcellus and Utica shale geological formations and allege that Defendants have willfully trespassed and illegally produced oil, natural gas, and other hydrocarbon products beyond these respective formations. Plaintiffs seek the full value of any production from below the Marcellus and Utica shale formations, unspecified damages from the diminution of value to their mineral estate, unspecified punitive damages, and the payment of reasonable attorney fees, legal expenses, and interest. On April 27, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas approved a settlement agreement in which the plaintiffs fully released the Company from all claims for amounts allegedly owed to the plaintiffs through the effective date of the Company’s Chapter 11 plan, which occurred on May 17, 2021. The plaintiffs are continuing to pursue alleged damages after May 17, 2021.
Business Operations
The Company is involved in various lawsuits and disputes incidental to its business operations, including commercial disputes, personal injury claims, royalty claims, property damage claims and contract actions.
Environmental Contingencies
The nature of the oil and gas business carries with it certain environmental risks for Gulfport and its subsidiaries. Gulfport and its subsidiaries have implemented various policies, programs, procedures, training and audits to reduce and mitigate environmental risks. The Company conducts periodic reviews, on a company-wide basis, to assess changes in its environmental risk profile. Environmental reserves are established for environmental liabilities for which economic losses are probable and reasonably estimable. The Company manages its exposure to environmental liabilities in acquisitions by using an evaluation process that seeks to identify pre-existing contamination or compliance concerns and address the potential liability. Depending on the extent of an identified environmental concern, it may, among other things, exclude a property from the transaction, require the seller to remediate the property to its satisfaction in an acquisition or agree to assume liability for the remediation of the property.
Other Matters
Based on management’s current assessment, they are of the opinion that no pending or threatened lawsuit or dispute relating to its business operations is likely to have a material adverse effect on their future consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The final resolution of such matters could exceed amounts accrued, however, and actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.

10.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Natural Gas, Oil and NGL Derivative Instruments
The Company seeks to mitigate risks related to unfavorable changes in natural gas, oil and NGL prices, which are subject to significant and often volatile fluctuation, by entering into over-the-counter fixed price swaps, basis swaps, costless collars and various types of option contracts. These contracts allow the Company to mitigate the impact of declines in future natural gas, oil and NGL prices by effectively locking in a floor price for a certain level of the Company’s production. However, these hedge contracts also limit the benefit to the Company in periods of favorable price movements.
The volume of production subject to commodity derivative instruments and the mix of the instruments are frequently evaluated and adjusted by management in response to changing market conditions. Gulfport may enter into commodity derivative contracts up to limitations set forth in its Credit Facility. The Company generally enters into commodity derivative contracts for approximately 30% to 70% of its forecasted current year annual production by the end of the first quarter of each fiscal year. The Company typically enters into commodity derivative contracts for the next 12 to 36 months. Gulfport does not enter into commodity derivative contracts for speculative purposes.
The Company does not currently have any commodity derivative transactions that have margin requirements or collateral provisions that would require payments prior to the scheduled settlement dates. The Company's commodity derivative contract counterparties are typically financial institutions and energy trading firms with investment-grade credit ratings. Gulfport routinely monitors and manages its exposure to counterparty risk by requiring specific minimum credit standards for all counterparties, actively monitoring counterparties' public credit ratings and avoiding the concentration of credit exposure by transacting with multiple counterparties. The Company has master netting agreements with some counterparties that allow the offsetting of receivables and payables in a default situation.
Fixed price swaps require that the Company receive a fixed price and pay a floating market price to the counterparty for the hedged community. They are settled monthly based on differences between the fixed price specified in the contract and the referenced settlement price. When the referenced settlement price is less than the price specified in the contract, the Company receives an amount from the counterparty based on the price difference multiplied by the volume. Similarly, when the referenced settlement price exceeds the price specified in the contract, the Company pays the counterparty an amount based on the price difference multiplied by the volume.
The Company has entered into natural gas, crude oil and NGL fixed price swap contracts based off the NYMEX Henry Hub, NYMEX WTI and Mont Belvieu C3 indices. Below is a summary of the Company’s open fixed price swap positions as of June 30, 2023.

| Index |  | Daily Volume |  | Weighted Average Price
Natural Gas |  |  | (MMBtu/d) |  | ($/MMBtu)
Remaining 2023 | NYMEX Henry Hub |  | 250,000 |  |  | $ | 4.12 |

Each two-way price costless collar has a set floor and ceiling price for the hedged production. They are settled monthly based on differences between the floor and ceiling prices specified in the contract and the referenced settlement price. If the applicable monthly price indices are outside of the ranges set by the floor and ceiling prices in the collar contracts, the Company will cash-settle the difference with the hedge counterparty. When the referenced settlement price is less than the floor price in the contract, the Company receives an amount from the counterparty based on the price difference multiplied by the hedged contract volume. Similarly, when the referenced settlement price exceeds the ceiling price specified in the contract, the Company pays the counterparty an amount based on the price difference multiplied by the hedged contract volume. No payment is due from either party if the referenced settlement price is within the range set by the floor and ceiling prices.
The Company has entered into natural gas costless collars based off the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas index. Below is a summary of the Company's costless collar positions as of June 30, 2023.

| Index |  | Daily Volume |  | Weighted Average Floor Price |  | Weighted Average Ceiling Price
Natural Gas |  |  | (MMBtu/d) |  | ($/MMBtu) |  | ($/MMBtu)
Remaining 2023 | NYMEX Henry Hub |  | 285,000 |  |  | $ | 2.93 |  |  | $ | 4.78 |
2024 | NYMEX Henry Hub |  | 180,000 |  |  | $ | 3.43 |  |  | $ | 5.49 |
2025 | NYMEX Henry Hub |  | 60,000 |  |  | $ | 3.67 |  |  | $ | 4.65 |

From time to time, the Company has sold natural gas call options in exchange for a premium, and used the associated premiums received to enhance the fixed price for a portion of the fixed price natural gas swaps. Each sold call option has an established ceiling price. If at the time of settlement the referenced settlement price exceeds the ceiling price, the Company pays its counterparty an amount equal to the difference between the referenced settlement price and the price ceiling multiplied by the hedged contract volumes. No payment is due from either party if the referenced settlement price is below the price ceiling. Below is a summary of the Company's open sold call option positions as of June 30, 2023.

| Index |  | Daily Volume |  | Weighted Average Price
Natural Gas |  |  | (MMBtu/d) |  | ($/MMBtu)
Remaining 2023 | NYMEX Henry Hub |  | 407,925 |  |  | $ | 3.21 |

2025 | NYMEX Henry Hub |  | 193,315 |  |  | $ | 5.80 |

In addition, the Company has entered into natural gas basis swap positions. These instruments are arrangements that guarantee a fixed price differential to NYMEX Henry Hub from a specified delivery point. The Company receives the fixed price differential and pays the floating market price differential to the counterparty for the hedged community. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had the following natural gas basis swap positions open:

| Gulfport Pays |  | Gulfport Receives |  | Daily Volume |  | Weighted Average Fixed Spread

Offsetting of Derivative Assets and Liabilities
As noted above, the Company records the fair value of derivative instruments on a gross basis. The following tables present the gross amounts of recognized derivative assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and the amounts that are subject to offsetting under master netting arrangements with counterparties, all at fair value (in thousands):

| As of June 30, 2023
| Gross Assets (Liabilities) Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets |  | Gross Amounts Subject to Master Netting Agreements |  | Net Amount
Derivative assets | $ | 194,994 |  |  | $ | (73,391) |  |  | $ | 121,603 |
Derivative liabilities | $ | (120,924) |  |  | $ | 73,391 |  |  | $ | (47,533) |

| As of December 31, 2022

Derivative assets | $ | 114,033 |  |  | $ | (80,345) |  |  | $ | 33,688 |
Derivative liabilities | $ | (461,926) |  |  | $ | 80,345 |  |  | $ | (381,581) |

Concentration of Credit Risk
By using derivative instruments that are not traded on an exchange, the Company is exposed to the credit risk of its counterparties. Credit risk is the risk of loss from counterparties not performing under the terms of the derivative instrument. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, the counterparty is expected to owe the Company, which creates credit risk. To minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments, it is the Company’s policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy financial institutions deemed by management as competent and competitive market makers. The Company’s derivative contracts are spread between multiple counterparties to lessen its exposure to any individual counterparty. Additionally, the Company uses master netting agreements to minimize credit risk exposure. The creditworthiness of the Company’s counterparties is subject to periodic review. None of the Company’s derivative instrument contracts contain credit-risk related contingent features. Other than as provided by the Company’s revolving credit facility, the Company is not required to provide credit support or collateral to any of its counterparties under its derivative instruments, nor are the counterparties required to provide credit support to the Company.

11.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company records certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market or observable inputs are the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
Valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs are favored. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement of assets and liabilities within the levels of the fair value hierarchy. Reclassifications of fair value between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if applicable, are made at the end of each quarter.
Financial assets and liabilities
The following tables summarize the Company’s financial and non-financial assets and liabilities by valuation level as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

| June 30, 2023
| Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Assets: |  |  |  |  |
Derivative instruments | $ | — |  |  | $ | 194,994 |  |  | $ | — |
Contingent consideration arrangement | — |  |  | — |  |  | 3,100 |
Total assets | $ | — |  |  | $ | 194,994 |  |  | $ | 3,100 |
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |
Derivative instruments | $ | — |  |  | $ | 120,924 |  |  | $ | — |

| December 31, 2022
| Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Assets: |  |  |  |  |
Derivative instruments | $ | — |  |  | $ | 114,033 |  |  | $ | — |
Contingent consideration arrangement | — |  |  | — |  |  | 4,900 |
Total assets | $ | — |  |  | $ | 114,033 |  |  | $ | 4,900 |
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |
Derivative instruments | $ | — |  |  | $ | 461,926 |  |  | $ | — |

The Company estimates the fair value of all derivative instruments using industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, implied volatility, time value, nonperformance risk, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument and can be supported by observable data.

Table of Contents
The Company's SCOOP water infrastructure sale, which closed in the first quarter of 2020, included a contingent consideration arrangement. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $3.1 million, of which all $3.1 million is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and is based on internal estimates of the Company's future development program and water production levels. Given the unobservable nature of the inputs, the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration arrangement is deemed to use Level 3 inputs. The Company has elected the fair value option for this contingent consideration arrangement and, therefore, records changes in fair value in earnings. The Company recognized a $0.1 million loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023 with respect to this contingent consideration arrangement. The Company recognized losses of a $1.2 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, with respect to this contingent consideration arrangement. These fair value changes are included in other expense (income) in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Non-financial assets and liabilities
The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and based on internal estimates of future retirement costs associated with oil and gas properties. Given the unobservable nature of the inputs, including plugging costs and reserve lives, the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation liability is deemed to use Level 3 inputs. See Note 2 for further discussion of the Company’s asset retirement obligations.
Fair value of other financial instruments
The carrying amounts on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which approximates market value due to their short-term nature. Long-term debt related to the Company's Credit Facility is carried at cost, which approximates market value based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company with similar terms and maturities.
12.REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from the sale of natural gas, oil condensate and NGL. These sales are recognized in the period that the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company generally considers the delivery of each unit (MMBtu or Bbl) to be separately identifiable and represents a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied at the time control of the product is transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in the contract with the customer, and excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. These contracts typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to market indices and volumes delivered in the current month. As such, this market pricing may be constrained (i.e., not estimable) at the inception of the contract but will be recognized based on the applicable market pricing, which will be known upon transfer of the goods to the customer. The payment date is usually within 30 days of the end of the calendar month in which the commodity is delivered.
Gathering, processing and compression fees attributable to gas processing, as well as any transportation fees, including firm transportation fees, incurred to deliver the product to the purchaser, are presented as transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
A significant number of the Company's product sales are short-term in nature generally through evergreen contracts with contract terms of one year or less. These contracts typically automatically renew under the same provisions. For those contracts, the Company has utilized the practical expedient allowed in the revenue accounting standard that exempts the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.
27

Table of Contents
For product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, the Company has utilized the practical expedient that exempts the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product generally represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. Currently, the Company's product sales that have a contractual term greater than one year have no long-term fixed consideration.
Contract Balances
Receivables from contracts with customers are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional, generally when control of the product has been transferred to the customer. Receivables from contracts with customers were $92.1 million and $278.4 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and are reported in accounts receivable - oil and natural gas sales, and natural gas liquids sales in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company currently has no assets or liabilities related to its revenue contracts, including no upfront or rights to deficiency payments.
Prior-Period Performance Obligations
The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain sales may be received for 30 to 90 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of production that was delivered to the purchaser and the price that will be received for the sale of the product. The differences between the estimates and the actual amounts for product sales is recorded in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. For each of the periods presented, revenue recognized in the reporting periods related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods was not material.
13.LEASES
Nature of Leases
The Company has operating leases on certain equipment with remaining lease durations in excess of one year. The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with lease terms of greater than one year. Short-term leases that have an initial term of one year or less are not capitalized.
The Company has entered into contracts for drilling rigs with varying terms with third parties to ensure operational continuity, cost control and rig availability in its operations. The Comp any has concluded its d rilling rig contracts are operating leases as the assets are identifiable and the Company has the right to control the identified assets. At June 30, 2023, the Company had one active long-term drilling rig contract.
The Company rents office space for its corporate headquarters, field locations and certain other equipment from third parties, which expire at various dates through 2026. These agreements are typically structured with non-cancelable terms of one to five years. The Company has determined these agreements represent operating leases with a lease term that equals the primary non-cancelable contract term. The Company has included any renewal options that it has determined are reasonably certain of exercise in the determination of the lease terms.
Discount Rate
As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company's incremental borrowing rate reflects the estimated rate of interest that it would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

Operating cash flows from operating leases | $ | 4,236 |  |  | $ | 72 |

The weighted-average remaining lease term as of June 30, 2023 was 1.68 years. The weighted-average discount rate used to determine the operating lease liability as of June 30, 2023 was 6.71%.
14.INCOME TAXES
The Company records its quarterly tax provision based on an estimate of the annual effective tax rate expected to apply to continuing operations for the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The tax effects of certain items, such as tax rate changes, significant unusual or infrequent items, and certain changes in the assessment of the realizability of deferred taxes, are recognized as discrete items in the period in which they occur and are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company's effective tax rate for the period was 0%, which differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of the valuation allowance on the Company's deferred tax assets.
29

Table of Contents
At each reporting period, the Company weighs all available positive and negative evidence to determine whether its deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses, is recognized when it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax assets will not be realized. To assess that likelihood, the Company uses estimates and judgment regarding future taxable income and considers the tax laws in the jurisdiction where such taxable income is generated, to determine whether a valuation allowance is required. Such evidence can include current financial position, results of operations, both actual and forecasted, the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies as well as the current and forecasted business economics of the oil and gas industry. Based upon the Company’s analysis, the Company determined a full valuation allowance was necessary against its net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023.
The Company will continue to evaluate whether the valuation allowance is needed in future reporting periods. The valuation allowance will remain until it is determined that the net deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. Future events or new evidence which may lead us to conclude that it is more likely than not that its net deferred tax assets will be realized include, but are not limited to, cumulative historical pre-tax earnings, improvements in oil prices, and taxable events that could result from one or more transactions. The valuation allowance does not prevent future utilization of the tax attributes if the Company recognizes taxable income. As long as the Company concludes that the valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets is necessary, the Company likely will not have any additional deferred income tax expense or benefit.
15.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Concurrent with the closing of the offering, Gulfport purchased 263,158 shares of its common stock at $95.00 per share. The repurchase is part of the Company's existing $400 million share repurchase program discussed below.
Share Repurchase Program
On February 27, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase to the authorized common stock Repurchase Program from $300 million to $400 million. The additional $100 million authorization expires on March 31, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 441,512 shares for $41.4 million at a weighted average price of $93.67 per share. As of June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 3.8 million shares for $325.0 million at a weighted average price of $85.51 per share since the inception of the Repurchase Program.
Inflation, Rising Interest Rates and Changes in Commodity Prices
The annual rate of inflation in the United States continues to be elevated as compared to historical averages. The Federal Reserve has tightened monetary policy by approving a series of increases to the Federal Funds Rate. Furthermore, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve signaled that the Federal Reserve would continue to take necessary action to bring inflation down and to ensure price stability. The inflationary environment has impacted interest rates on our Credit Facility borrowings throughout 2022 and into 2023. Interest rates on our Credit Facility borrowings have increased from a weighted average of 4.01% and 3.59% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, to 8.13% and 7.85% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Additional increases in interest rates may have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to continue to execute its business strategy.
Our revenues, the value of our assets, and our ability to obtain bank loans or additional capital on attractive terms have been and will continue to be affected by changes in natural gas, oil and NGL prices and the costs to produce our reserves. Natural gas, oil and NGL prices are subject to significant fluctuations that are beyond our ability to control or predict. Certain of our capital expenditures and expenses are affected by general inflation and we expect costs for 2023 to continue to be a function of supply and demand; however, we do not expect inflation to significantly impact cash flow in 2023 as a result of commitments that were entered into during 2022.
Impact of the War in Ukraine
The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the sanctions imposed in response to the crisis have increased volatility in the global financial markets and are expected to have further global economic consequences, including disruptions of the global energy markets and the amplification of inflation and supply chain constraints. The ultimate impact of the war in Ukraine will depend on future developments and the timing and extent to which normal economic and operating conditions resume.
2023 Operational and Financial Highlights
During the second quarter of 2023, we had the following notable achievements:
•Reported total net production of 1,039.3 MMcfe per day.
•Turned to sales 13 gross (11.9 net) operated wells.
•Generated $107.4 million of operating cash flows.
•Repurchased 441,512 shares for $41.4 million at a weighted average price of $93.67 per share.
•Increased our borrowing base from $1.0 billion to $1.1 billion and increased our elected commitment under the Credit Facility from $700 million to $900 million.
•Extended the maturity of the Credit Facility to May 2027.

Natural gas, oil and condensate and NGL sales | $ | 207,918 |  |  | $ | 638,205 |  |  | (67) | %

The decrease in natural gas sales without the impact of derivatives when comparing the three months ended June 30, 2023, to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was due to a 73% decrease in realized natural gas prices, partially offset by a 10% increase in sales volumes. The realized price change was primarily driven by the decrease in the average Henry Hub gas index from $7.17 per Mcf in the three months ended June 30, 2022, to $2.10 per Mcf during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
The decrease in oil and condensate sales without the impact of derivatives when comparing the three months ended June 30, 2023, to the three months ended June 30, 2022, was due to a 34% decrease in realized oil prices and a 24% decrease in sales volumes. The realized price change was primarily driven by the decrease in the average WTI crude index from $108.41 per barrel in the three months ended June 30, 2022, to $73.78 per barrel during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
The decrease in NGL sales without the impact of derivatives when comparing the three months ended June 30, 2023, to the three months ended June 30, 2022, was due to a 52% decrease in realized prices. The realized price change was primarily driven by the decrease in the average Mont Belvieu NGL index from $51.49 per barrel in the three months ended June 30, 2022, to $25.99 per barrel during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily driven by increases in employee headcount and compensation.
Restructuring costs
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Gulfport recognized $2.9 million in personnel-related restructuring expenses associated with changes in the organizational structure and leadership team resulting from the appointment of Gulfport's new CEO in January 2023. Of these expenses, $0.8 million resulted from accelerated vesting of share-based grants, which are non-cash charges. As of June 30, 2023, there were no remaining employee termination liabilities for the impacted employees.

Interest expense on our Credit Facility increased 13% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, as a result of increased interest rates resulting from the current inflationary environment. Amortization of loan costs increased by 30% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, as a result of the Third Amendment to the Credit Facility which increased the commitment and redetermined its borrowing base. See Note 3 of our consolidated financial statements for further details of our Credit Facility. The Company also capitalized $1.0 million in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and did not capitalize interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Other, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022, included a $5.1 million payment to settle certain gas imbalance positions.
Income Taxes
We did not record any income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022, as a result of maintaining a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax asset. We expect to continue a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or a significant portion of the allowance. However, given the Company's recent history of earnings, it is reasonably possible that sufficient positive evidence may become available within the next 12 months to adjust all or a significant portion of the current valuation allowance position. Exact timing and amount of the adjustment to the valuation allowance is unknown at this time. See Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements for further details of our valuation allowance.

Natural gas, oil and condensate and NGL sales | $ | 561,078 |  |  | $ | 1,118,940 |  |  | (50) | %

The decrease in natural gas sales without the impact of derivatives when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023, to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to a 56% decrease in realized prices, partially offset by a 6% increase in sales volumes. The realized price change was primarily driven by the decrease in the average Henry Hub gas index from $6.06 per Mcf in the six months ended June 30, 2022, to $2.76 per Mcf in the six months ended June 30, 2023.
The decrease in oil and condensate sales without the impact of derivatives when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023, to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was due to a 29% decrease in realized prices. The realized price change was driven by the decrease in the average WTI crude index from $101.35 per barrel in the six months ended June 30, 2022, to $74.95 per barrel in the six months ended June 30, 2023.
The decrease in NGL sales without the impact of derivatives when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023, to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was due to a 43% decrease in realized prices, partially offset by a 17% increase in NGL sales volumes. The realized price change was driven by the decrease in the average Mont Belvieu NGL index from $52.86 per barrel in the six months ended June 30, 2022, to $30.61 per barrel in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Total gains (losses) on natural gas, oil and NGL derivatives | $ | 474,849 |  |  | $ | (961,422) |

We recognize fair value changes on our natural gas, oil and NGL derivative instruments in each reporting period. The changes in fair value resulted from new positions and settlements that occurred during each period, as well as the relationship between contract prices and the associated forward curves. The significant change in the total gain (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily the result of a significant decrease in futures pricing for oil, natural gas, and NGLs. See Note 10 of our consolidated financial statements for hedged volumes and pricing.

The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily driven by increases in employee headcount and legal expenses related to the continued administration of our Chapter 11 filing and settlement of firm transportation agreement as noted in Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements.
Restructuring costs
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Gulfport recognized $4.8 million in personnel-related restructuring expenses associated with changes in the organizational structure and leadership team resulting from the appointment of Gulfport's new CEO in January 2023. Of these expenses, $1.3 million resulted from accelerated vesting of share-based grants, which are non-cash charges. As of June 30, 2023, there were no remaining employee termination liabilities for the impacted employees.

The distribution and settlement is more fully described in Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements. The timing and amount of any future distributions to Gulfport are not certain, and the total amount will be impacted by the liquidating trust's distributions and resolution of other remaining bankruptcy claims. Additionally, Other, net included a $5.0 million recoupment of previously placed collateral for certain firm transportation commitments during our Chapter 11 filing.
Other, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022, included $11.5 million related to the initial TC claim distribution as discussed in Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements. Additionally, Other, net included a $5.1 million payment to settle certain gas imbalance positions and a $5.2 million receipt of funds from a litigation settlement.
Income Taxes
We did not record any income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022, as a result of maintaining a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax asset. We expect to continue a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or a significant portion of the allowance. However, given the Company's recent history of earnings, it is reasonably possible that sufficient positive evidence may become available within the next 12 months to adjust all or a significant portion of the current valuation allowance position. Exact timing and amount of the adjustment to the valuation allowance is unknown at this time. See Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements for further details of our valuation allowance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview. We strive to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure financial flexibility, withstand commodity price volatility, fund our development projects, operations and capital expenditures and return capital to shareholders. We utilize derivative contracts to reduce the financial impact of commodity price volatility and provide a level of certainty to the Company's cash flows. We generally fund our operations, planned capital expenditures and any share repurchases with cash flow from our operating activities, cash on hand, and borrowings under our Credit Facility. Additionally, we may access debt and equity markets and sell properties to enhance our liquidity. There is no guarantee that the debt or equity capital markets will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, our primary sources of capital resources and liquidity have consisted of internally generated cash flows from operations, and our primary uses of cash have been for development of our oil and natural gas properties and share repurchases.
We believe our annual free cash flow generation, borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility and cash on hand will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, capital expenditures, interest expense and share repurchases during the next 12 months.
To the extent actual operating results, realized commodity prices or uses of cash differ from our assumptions, our liquidity could be adversely affected. See Note 3 of our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt obligations, including the principal and carrying amounts of our senior notes.
As of June 30, 2023, we had $5.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $99.0 million of borrowings under our Credit Facility, $74.4 million of letters of credit outstanding, and $550 million of outstanding 2026 Senior Notes. Our total principal amount of funded debt as of June 30, 2023 was $649.0 million.
As of July 27, 2023 we had $6.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, $92.0 million in borrowings under our Credit Facility, $71.8 million of letters of credit outstanding, and $550 million of outstanding 2026 Senior Notes.
Debt. On October 14, 2021, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and various lender parties. The Existing Credit Facility provides for an aggregate maximum principal amount of up to $1.5 billion. The credit agreement also provides for a $175.0 million sublimit of the aggregate commitments that is available for the issuance of letters of credit.
On May 2, 2022, the Company completed its semi-annual borrowing base redetermination and entered into the Amendment to Borrowing Base Redetermination Agreement and First Amendment to our Credit Agreement, which amended the Existing Credit Facility. The amendment, among other things, (a) increased the borrowing base under the Credit Facility from $850 million to $1.0 billion with elected commitments remaining at $700 million, (b) amended certain covenants related to hedging to ease certain requirements and limitations and (c) amended the covenants governing restricted payments to (i) increase the Net Leverage Ratio allowing unlimited restricted payments from 1.00 to 1.00 to 1.25 to 1.00 and (ii) permit additional restricted payments to redeem preferred equity until December 31, 2022 provided certain leverage, no event of default or borrowing base deficiency and availability tests are met and (d) provided for the transition from a LIBOR to a SOFR benchmark, with a 10 basis point credit spread adjustment for all tenors.
On October 31, 2022, the Company completed its semi-annual borrowing base redetermination and entered into the Borrowing Base Reaffirmation Agreement and Second Amendment to our Credit Agreement, which amended the Existing Credit Facility. The amendment, among other things, reconfirmed the borrowing base under the Credit Facility at $1.0 billion and the elected commitments at $700 million.
On May 1, 2023, the Company entered into that certain Joinder, Commitment Increase and Borrowing Base Redetermination Agreement, and Third Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Third Amendment”) which amended the Company’s Existing Credit Facility (as amended, the “Credit Facility”). The Third Amendment, among other things, (a) increased the aggregate elected commitment amounts under the Credit Facility from $700 million to $900 million, (b) increased the borrowing base under the Credit Facility from $1 billion to $1.1 billion, (c) increased the excess cash threshold under the Credit Facility from $45 million to $75 million, and (d) extended the maturity date under the Credit Facility from October 14, 2025 to the earlier of (i) May 1, 2027 and (ii) the 91st day prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Senior Notes or any other permitted senior notes or any permitted refinancing debt under the Credit Facility having an aggregate outstanding principal amount equal to or exceeding $100 million; provided that such notes have not be refinanced, redeemed or repaid in full on or prior to such 91st day.

Table of Contents
Additionally, on the Emergence Date, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, we issued our 2026 Senior Notes. The 2026 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company's subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facility.
See Note 3 of our consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of our outstanding debt.
Preferred Dividends. As discussed in Note 4 of our consolidated financial statements, holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly dividends at a rate of 10% per annum of the Liquidation Preference with respect to cash dividends and 15% per annum of the Liquidation Preference with respect to dividends paid in kind as additional shares of preferred stock (“PIK Dividends”). We currently have the option to pay either cash dividends or PIK Dividends on a quarterly basis.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid $1.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of cash dividends to holders of our preferred stock compared to $1.4 million and $2.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information. The 2026 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all existing consolidated subsidiaries that guarantee our Credit Facility or certain other debt (the “Guarantors”). The 2026 Senior Notes are not guaranteed by Grizzly Holdings or Mule Sky, LLC (the “Non-Guarantors”). The Guarantors are 100% owned by the Parent, and the guarantees are full, unconditional, joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Parent or the Guarantors to obtain funds from each other in the form of a dividend or loan. The guarantees rank equally in the right of payment with all of the senior indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantors and senior in the right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantors. The 2026 Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of our and the subsidiary guarantors' secured indebtedness (including all borrowings and other obligations under our amended and restated credit agreement) to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness, and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of any of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2026 Senior Notes.
SEC Regulation S-X Rule 13-01 requires the presentation of "Summarized Financial Information" to replace the "Condensed Consolidating Financial Information" required under Rule 3-10. Rule 13-01 allows the omission of Summarized Financial Information if assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Guarantors are not materially different than the corresponding amounts presented in our consolidated financial statements. The Parent and Guarantor subsidiaries comprise our material operations. Therefore, we concluded that the presentation of the Summarized Financial Information is not required as our Summarized Financial Information of the Guarantors is not materially different from our consolidated financial statements.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities. Our results of operations and cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for natural gas, oil and NGL. To mitigate a portion of the exposure to adverse market changes, we have entered into various derivative instruments. Our natural gas, oil and NGL derivative activities, when combined with our sales of natural gas, oil and NGL, allow us to predict with greater certainty the total revenue we will receive. See Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk for further discussion on the impact of commodity price risk on our financial position. Additionally, see Note 10 of our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of derivatives and hedging activities.
Capital Expenditures. Our capital expenditures have historically been related to the execution of our drilling and completion activities in addition to certain lease acquisition activities. Our capital investment strategy is focused on prudently developing our existing properties to generate sustainable cash flow considering current and forecasted commodity prices. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company's incurred capital expenditures totaled $276.2 million, of which $237.7 million related to drilling and completion activity and $38.5 million related to leasehold and land investment.
Our capital expenditures for 2023 are currently estimated to be in the range of $375 million to $400 million for drilling and completion expenditures. Also, we currently expect to spend approximately $50 million to $75 million in 2023 for maintenance leasehold and land investment, which is focused on near-term drilling programs and facilitating increases in our working interests and lateral footage in units we plan to drill in 2023 and 2024. We expect this capital program to result in approximately 1,035 to 1,055 MMcfe per day of production in 2023.
Additionally, we are pursuing accretive acreage opportunities that expand our resource depth and provide optionality to our near term development plans and intend to allocate approximately $40 million in discretionary acreage acquisitions.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Natural Gas, Oil and Natural Gas Liquids Derivative Instruments. Our results of operations and cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for natural gas, oil and NGL. To mitigate a portion of our exposure to adverse price changes, we have entered into various derivative instruments. Our natural gas, oil and NGL derivative activities, when combined with our sales of natural gas, oil and NGL, allow us to predict with greater certainty the revenue we will receive. We believe our derivative instruments continue to be highly effective in achieving our risk management objectives.
Our general strategy for protecting short-term cash flow and attempting to mitigate exposure to adverse natural gas, oil and NGL price changes is to hedge into strengthening natural gas, oil and NGL futures markets when prices reach levels that management believes provide reasonable rates of return on our invested capital. Information we consider in forming an opinion about future prices includes general economic conditions, industrial output levels and expectations, producer breakeven cost structures, liquefied natural gas trends, oil and natural gas storage inventory levels, industry decline rates for base production and weather trends. Executive management is involved in all risk management activities and the board of directors reviews our derivative program at its quarterly board meetings.
We use derivative instruments to achieve our risk management objectives, including swaps, options and costless collars. All of these are described in more detail below. We typically use swaps for a large portion of the oil and natural gas price risk we hedge. We have also sold calls in the past to take advantage of premiums associated with market price volatility.
We determine the notional volume potentially subject to derivative contracts by reviewing our overall estimated future production levels, which are derived from extensive examination of existing producing reserve estimates and estimates of estimated production from new drilling. Production forecasts are updated at least monthly and adjusted if necessary to actual results and activity levels. We do not enter into derivative contracts for volumes in excess of our share of forecasted production, and if production estimates were lowered for future periods and derivative instruments are already executed for some volume above the new production forecasts, the positions are typically reversed. The actual fixed prices on our derivative instruments is derived from the reference prices from third-party indices such as NYMEX. All of our commodity derivative instruments are net settled based on the difference between the fixed price as stated in the contract and the floating-price, resulting in a net amount due to or from the counterparty.
We review our derivative positions continuously and if future market conditions change and prices are at levels we believe could jeopardize the effectiveness of a position, we will mitigate this risk by either negotiating a cash settlement with our counterparty, restructuring the position or entering a new trade that effectively reverses the current position. The factors we consider in closing or restructuring a position before the settlement date are identical to those we review when deciding to enter the original derivative position.
We have determined the fair value of our derivative instruments utilizing established index prices, volatility curves, discount factors and option pricing models. These estimates are compared to counterparty valuations for reasonableness. Derivative transactions are also subject to the risk that counterparties will be unable to meet their obligations. This non-performance risk is considered in the valuation of our derivative instruments, but to date has not had a material impact on the values of our derivatives. The values we report in our financial statements are as of a point in time and subsequently change as these estimates are revised to reflect actual results, changes in market conditions and other factors. See Note 11 of our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the fair value measurements associated with our derivatives.
As of June 30, 2023, our natural gas, oil and NGL derivative instruments consisted of the following types of instruments:
•Swaps: We receive a fixed price and pay a floating market price to the counterparty for the hedged commodity. In exchange for higher fixed prices on certain of our swap trades, we may sell call options.
•Basis Swaps: These instruments are arrangements that guarantee a fixed price differential to NYMEX from a specified delivery point. We receive the fixed price differential and pay the floating market price differential to the counterparty for the hedged commodity.
•Costless Collars: Each two-way price collar has a set floor and ceiling price for the hedged production. If the applicable monthly price indices are outside of the ranges set by the floor and ceiling prices in the various collars, the Company will cash-settle the difference with the counterparty.

•Call Options: We sell, and occasionally buy, call options in exchange for a premium. At the time of settlement, if the market price exceeds the fixed price of the call option, we pay the counterparty the excess on sold call options, and we would receive the excess on bought call options. If the market price settles below the fixed price of the call option, no payment is due from either party.
Our hedge arrangements may expose us to risk of financial loss in certain circumstances, including instances where production is less than expected or commodity prices increase. At June 30, 2023, we had a net asset derivative position of $74.1 million as compared to a net liability derivative position of $347.9 million as of December 31, 2022. Utilizing actual derivative contractual volumes, a 10% increase in underlying commodity prices would have increased our liability by approximately $119.5 million, while a 10% decrease in underlying commodity prices would have decreased our liability by approximately $115.6 million. However, any realized derivative gain or loss would be substantially offset by a decrease or increase, respectively, in the actual sales value of production covered by the derivative instrument.
Interest Rate Risk. Our Credit Facility is structured under floating rate terms, as advances under these facilities may be in the form of either base rate loans or term benchmark loans. As such, our interest expense is sensitive to fluctuations in the prime rates in the United States, or, if the term benchmark rates are elected, the term benchmark rates. At June 30, 2023, we had $99.0 million outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility which bore interest at a weighted average rate of 7.85% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we did not have any interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate risks.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Control and Procedures. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, and with participation of management, we have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The disclosure controls and procedures are also intended to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As of June 30, 2023, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and the application of judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that the Company's controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal controls over financial reporting.
