CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly Report") contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained in this Quarterly Report that include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, need for financing, competitive position and potential growth opportunities represent management's beliefs and assumptions based on currently available information and they do not consider the effects of future legislation or regulations. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believes,” “intends,” “may,” “should,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “could,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “targets” or comparable terminology or by discussions of strategy or trends. Such statements by their nature involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements.
Among the factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed under “Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and "Part II, Item 1.A Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We continue to face many risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to:
•the volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices;
•regional supply and demand factors, any delays, curtailment delays or interruptions of production, and any governmental order, rule or regulation that may impose production limits;
•cost and availability of gathering, pipeline, refining, transportation and other midstream and downstream activities;
•severe weather and other risks that lead to a lack of any available markets;
•our ability to successfully complete mergers, acquisitions or divestitures;
•the inability or failure of the Company to successfully integrate the acquired assets into its operations and development activities;
•the potential delays in the development, construction or start-up of planned projects;
•the risk that the Company's EOR project may not perform as expected or produce the anticipated benefits;
•risks relating to our operations, including development drilling and testing results and performance of acquired properties and newly drilled wells;
•inability to prove up undeveloped acreage and maintain production on leases;
•any reduction in our borrowing base on our revolving credit facility from time to time and our ability to repay any excess borrowings as a result of such reduction;
•the impact of our derivative strategy and the results of future settlement;
•our ability to comply with the financial covenants contained in our revolving credit facility and in our unsecured Senior Notes;
•changes in general economic, business or industry conditions, including changes in inflation rates, interest rates, and foreign currency exchange rates;
•conditions in the capital, financial and credit markets and our ability to obtain capital needed for development and exploration operations on favorable terms or at all;
•the loss of certain tax deductions;
•risks associated with executing our business strategy, including any changes in our strategy;
•risks associated with concentration of operations in one major geographic area;
•legislative or regulatory changes, including initiatives related to hydraulic fracturing, emissions and disposal of produced water, which may be negatively impacted by regulation or legislation;
•the ability to receive drilling and other permits or approvals and rights-of-way in a timely manner (or at all), which may be restricted by governmental regulation and legislation;
•restrictions on the use of water, including limits on the use of produced water and a moratorium on new produced water well permits recently imposed by the RRC in an effort to control induced seismicity in the Permian Basin;
•changes in government environmental policies and other environmental risks; the availability of drilling equipment and the timing of production; tax consequences of business transactions; public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemics, and any related government policies and actions and the effects of such public health crises on the oil and natural gas industry, pricing and demand for oil and natural gas and supply chain logistics;

Table of Contents
•general domestic and international economic, market and political conditions, including the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the global response to such conflict;
•risks related to litigation; and
•cybersecurity threats, technology system failures and data security issues.
In light of such risks and uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report, or if earlier, as of the date they were made. We do not intend to, and disclaim any obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements unless required by securities law.

(1)Organization and Nature of Business
Riley Permian is a growth-oriented, independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil, natural gas and NGL's in Texas and New Mexico. Our activities primarily include the horizontal development of conventional reservoirs on the Northwest Shelf of the Permian Basin. Our acreage is primarily located on large, contiguous blocks in Yoakum County, Texas and Eddy County, New Mexico.
On April 3, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of oil and natural gas assets (the “New Mexico Acquisition”) from Pecos Oil & Gas, LLC (“Pecos”), a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Cibolo Energy Partners LLC. For further information regarding the New Mexico Acquisition, see Note 4 - Acquisitions of Oil and Natural Gas Properties.
(2)Basis of Presentation
Effective by the Company's Board of Directors written consent on September 23, 2022, the Company's fiscal year is now the period from January 1 to December 31, beginning with the year ended December 31, 2022.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 include the accounts of Riley Permian and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented, which adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, except as disclosed herein. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023, for various reasons, including as a result of the impact of the New Mexico Acquisition, fluctuations in prices received for oil and natural gas, natural production declines, the uncertainty of exploration and development drilling results, fluctuations in the fair value of derivative instruments, the current and future impacts of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the volatile inflationary environment in U.S. markets and other factors.
(3)Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Significant Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions may also affect disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
The Company evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, using historical experience, consultation with experts and other methods the Company considers reasonable in the particular circumstances. Actual results may differ significantly from the Company’s estimates. Any effects on the Company’s business, financial position or results of operations resulting from revisions to these estimates are recorded in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom, the carrying value of oil and natural gas properties, accounts receivable, accrued capital expenditures and operating expenses, ARO, the fair value determination of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, certain tax accruals and the fair value of derivatives.

Equity method investment. In January 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to form a joint venture created for the purpose of constructing a new power infrastructure for onsite power generation in Yoakum County, Texas using produced natural gas. RPC Power Holdco LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of REPX, has a 30% investment in the joint venture, RPC Power LLC ("RPC Power"). The Company contributed its portion of capital for construction of the onsite power generation. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had invested $5.8 million to date in the joint venture, comprised of $3.6 million in cash and $2.3 million of contributed assets, which was reduced by the loss during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The onsite power generation facility is expected to be placed in service late in the third quarter or during the fourth quarter of 2023.
The Company accounts for its corporate joint ventures under the equity method of accounting in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 323 “Investments — Equity Method and Joint Ventures.” The Company applies the equity method of accounting to investments of less than 50% in an investee over which the Company exercises significant influence but does not have control. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or loss is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Judgment regarding the level of influence over each equity method investment includes considering key factors such as ownership interest, representation on the board of directors, participation in policy-making decisions, material intercompany transactions and extent of ownership by an investor in relation to the concentration of other shareholdings.

Deferred financing costs
Long-term debt includes capitalized costs related to the issuance of $200 million of 10.50% senior unsecured notes with final maturity due 2028 ("Senior Notes"), net of accumulated amortization. The costs associated with the Senior Notes are netted against the Senior Notes balance and are amortized over the term of the Senior Notes using the effective interest method. See Note 9 - Long-Term Debt for additional information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
No new accounting pronouncements have been adopted or issued that would impact the financial statements of the Company.
(4)Acquisitions of Oil and Natural Gas Properties
New Mexico Acquisition
On April 3, 2023, the Company completed the New Mexico Acquisition from Pecos for approximately $330 million, before customary purchase price adjustments. The assets acquired are located in Eddy County, New Mexico, and include approximately 10,600 total contiguous net acres of leasehold. The acquisition included 18 net horizontal wells and 250 net vertical wells. Additionally, the assets add significant drilling locations to the Company's inventory.
The Company funded the New Mexico Acquisition through a combination of borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility and proceeds from the issuance of $200 million of Senior Notes, including application of a $33 million escrow deposit paid during the three months ended March 31, 2023 with borrowings under the revolving credit facility. For further information regarding the financing for the New Mexico Acquisition, see Note 9 - Long-Term Debt.
The New Mexico Acquisition qualified as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change for up to one year subsequent to the Closing Date due to changes in the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the New Mexico Acquisition. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value as of the acquisition date. The fair value measurements of the oil and natural gas properties acquired and asset retirement obligations assumed were derived utilizing an income approach and based, in part, on significant inputs not observable in the market. These inputs represent Level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy and include, but are not limited to, estimates of reserves, future development, future operating costs, future cash flows and the use of weighted average cost of capital. These inputs required the use of significant judgments and estimates at the date of valuation, and use of different estimates and judgments could yield different results.

On April 3, 2023, the Company closed on the New Mexico Acquisition. For further information regarding the acquisition, see Note 4 - Acquisitions of Oil and Natural Gas Properties.
(6)Derivative Instruments
Oil and Natural Gas Contracts
The Company uses commodity based derivative contracts to reduce exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices. While the use of these contracts limits the downside risk for adverse price changes, their use also limits future revenues from favorable price changes. We have not designated our derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes, and therefore changes in the fair value of derivatives are included and recognized in other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(7)Fair Value Measurements
The FASB has established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy consists of three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are the highest priority and consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.
The carrying values of financial instruments comprising cash and cash equivalents, payables, receivables, and advances from joint interest owners approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments and are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value reported for the revolving line of credit approximates fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates which approximate current market rates. The fair value of the Senior Notes is based on estimates of current rates available for similar issues with similar maturities and is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The oil and natural gas properties acquired and asset retirement obligations assumed in the New Mexico Acquisition are considered Level 3 measurements.

Credit Facility
As of June 30, 2023, Riley Exploration - Permian, LLC ("REP LLC"), as borrower, and the Company, as parent guarantor, are parties to a credit agreement with Truist Bank and certain lenders party thereto, as amended, which provides for a borrowing base of $325 million (such agreement and the borrowing facility provided thereby, the “Credit Facility”). On February 22, 2023, the Company amended its Credit Facility to, among other things, allow for the issuance of unsecured senior notes of up to $200 million. On April 3, 2023, and concurrent with the closing of the New Mexico Acquisition, the Company entered into the fourteenth amendment (the "Fourteenth Amendment") to the Credit Facility to, among other things, increase the maximum facility amount to $1.0 billion and the borrowing base from $225 million to $325 million, resulting in the addition of new lenders to the lending group. The Credit Facility is set to mature in April 2026. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged to secure the Credit Facility. The following table summarizes the Credit Facility balances:

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022

Outstanding borrowings | $ | 215,000 |  |  | $ | 56,000 |
Available under the borrowing base | $ | 110,000 |  |  | $ | 169,000 |

Senior Notes
On April 3, 2023, and concurrent with the closing of the New Mexico Acquisition, the Company (as “Issuer”) completed its issuance of $200 million aggregate principal amount of 10.50% senior unsecured notes with final maturity April 2028 pursuant to a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), with the Senior Notes issued at a 6% discount. The net proceeds from the Senior Notes were used to fund a portion of the purchase price and related fees, costs and expenses for the New Mexico Acquisition.
Interest is due and payable at the end of each quarter. In addition to interest, the Issuer will repay 2.50% of the original principal amount each quarter resulting in $5 million quarterly principal payments until the maturity of the Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $20 million in current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet related to the quarterly principal payments due within the next 12 months.
The Issuer may, at its option, redeem, at any time and from time to time on or prior to April 3, 2026, some or all of the Senior Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the make-whole amount plus a premium of 5.25% as set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. After April 3, 2026, but on or prior to October 3, 2026, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem, at any time and from time to time some or all of the Senior Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus a premium of 5.25% as set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. After October 3, 2026, the Issuer may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The principal remaining outstanding at the time of maturity is required to be paid in full by the Issuer. Certain note features, including those discussed above, were evaluated and deemed to be remote. Due to the remote nature, the fair value of these features was estimated to be approximately zero.
The Senior Notes contain certain covenants, which, among other things, require the maintenance of (i) a total leverage ratio of less than 3.00 to 1.00 and (ii) an asset coverage ratio greater than 1.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of any quarter beginning with the first full quarter following the Closing Date of the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes also contain a total leverage ratio and an asset coverage ratio for Restricted Payments, as defined in the Senior Notes. The leverage ratio, after giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payments, cannot exceed 2.00 to 1.00, and the asset coverage ratio, after giving effect to such Restricted Payments, must be greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00. In addition to and after giving effect to such Restricted Payments, the outstanding balance on the Company's Credit Facility must be greater than or equal to 15% of the lesser of the then effective Borrowing Base and the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amount. Upon issuance of the Senior Notes, the Company must maintain a minimum hedging requirement included within the Senior Notes for oil and natural gas based on its proved developed producing projected volumes for each commodity on a rolling 18-month basis.
The Senior Notes are general unsecured obligations ranking equally in right of payment with all other senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and are senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness of the Company. The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary terms and covenants, including limitations on the Company’s ability to incur additional secured and unsecured indebtedness.

The Company's income tax returns in major state income tax jurisdictions remain subject to examination for various periods subsequent to December 31, 2017. The Company currently believes that all other significant filing positions are highly certain and that all of its other significant income tax positions and deductions would be sustained under audit or the final resolution would not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, the Company has not established any significant reserves for uncertain tax positions.

(13)Commitments and Contingencies
Indemnification
The Company has agreed to indemnify its directors and certain of its officers, employees and agents with respect to claims and damages arising from acts or omissions taken in such capacity, as well as with respect to certain litigation.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into agreements that may include indemnification provisions. Pursuant to such agreements, the Company may indemnify, hold harmless and defend the indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party. Some of the provisions will limit losses to those arising from third-party actions. In some cases, the indemnification will continue after the termination of the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these provisions is not determinable.
Legal Matters
Due to the nature of the Company's business, the Company may at times be subject to claims and legal actions. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred, and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date and the Company’s estimates of the outcomes of these matters. The Company did not recognize any material liability as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Management believes it is remote that the impact of such matters will have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. These laws, which are often changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Company to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. The Company had no material environmental liabilities as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Contractual Commitments
In October 2021, the Company executed an agreement related to its EOR project.

Recent Developments
Market Conditions, Commodity Prices and Interest Rates
U.S. and global markets have experienced heightened volatility following impactful geopolitical events, consistent evidence of widespread inflation, as well as increased fears of an economic recession. Recent measures have been taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve to combat persistent inflation by increasing interest rates throughout 2022 and 2023. The global banking sector has experienced material disruptions which has also contributed to market volatility. Further, the full-scale military invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops has continued unabated since February 2022 coupled with related economic sanctions imposed on Russia further exacerbating supply shortages, leading to disruptions in the credit and capital markets, including significant uncertainty in commodity prices, during 2022 and into 2023. Prices for oil and natural gas are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions, which have been and could continue to be volatile.
The combination of geopolitical events, inflation and the rising rate environment has led to increasing forecasts of a U.S. or global recession. Any such recession could prolong market volatility or cause a decline in commodity prices, among other potential impacts.
The Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the future impact these events will have on the Company's results of operations, financial position, liquidity and the value of oil and natural gas reserves.
New Mexico Acquisition
On April 3, 2023, the Company completed the New Mexico Acquisition from Pecos for approximately $330 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The New Mexico Acquisition was funded through a combination of borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility and proceeds from the issuance of $200 million of Senior Notes.
Power Joint Venture
In January 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to form a joint venture created for the purpose of constructing a new power infrastructure for onsite power generation using produced natural gas. The Company has an initial 30% investment in the joint venture company, RPC Power, and is committed to providing its portion of capital. The onsite power generation facility is expected to be placed in service late in the third quarter or during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Lease Operating Expenses ("LOE")
LOE are the costs incurred in the operation and maintenance of producing properties. Expenses for electricity, compression, direct labor, saltwater disposal and materials and supplies comprise the most significant portion of our lease operating expenses. Certain operating cost components, such as direct labor and materials and supplies, generally remain relatively fixed across broad production volume ranges, but can fluctuate depending on activities performed during a specific period. For instance, repairs to our pumping equipment or surface facilities or subsurface maintenance result in increased production expenses in periods during which they are performed. Certain operating cost components, such as compression and saltwater disposal associated with completion water, are variable and increase or decrease as hydrocarbon production levels and the volume of completion water disposal increases or decreases.
The Company’s LOE increased by $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the increase was driven by a $4.7 million increase due to higher production, including $3.7 million attributable to the New Mexico Acquisition, and a $3.8 million increase due to higher workover expense, including $2.6 million attributable to the New Mexico Acquisition. In addition, increases of $1.0 million related to utility rates, field payroll, and saltwater disposal charges were incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
The Company’s LOE increased by $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase was driven by a $6.7 million increase due to higher production, including $3.7 million attributable to the New Mexico Acquisition, and a $4.9 million increase due to higher workover expense, including $2.6 million attributable to the New Mexico Acquisition. These increases were partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in LOE expense related to utility rates, field payroll, and saltwater disposal charges.
Production and Ad Valorem Tax Expense
Production taxes are paid on produced oil, natural gas and NGLs based on a percentage of revenues at fixed rates established by federal, state or local taxing authorities. In general, the production taxes we pay correlate to changes in our oil, natural gas and NGL revenues. We are also subject to ad valorem taxes in the counties where our production is located. Ad valorem taxes are generally based on the valuation of our oil and natural gas properties, which also trend with oil and natural gas prices and vary across the different counties in which we operate.
31

Production and ad valorem taxes increased by $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, and $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. These increases are primarily attributable to the New Mexico Acquisition with a slight increase in ad valorem taxes.
Exploration Expense
Exploration expense consists of expiration of unproved leasehold and geological and geophysical costs which include seismic survey costs. Exploration expense increased $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, and decreased $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Depletion, Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion Expense
Depletion, depreciation and amortization is the systematic expensing of the capitalized costs incurred to acquire, explore and develop oil, natural gas and NGLs. All costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of properties (excluding costs of surrendered and abandoned leaseholds, delay lease rentals, dry holes and overhead related to exploration activities) are capitalized. Capitalized costs are depleted using the units of production method.
Accretion expense relates to ARO. We record the fair value of the liability for ARO in the period in which the liability is incurred (at the time the wells are drilled or acquired) with the offset to property cost. The liability accretes each period until it is settled or the well is sold, at which time the liability is removed.
Depletion, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense increased by $11.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. These increases were primarily due to a $6.4 million increase due to the New Mexico Acquisition along with higher production on historical properties.
General and Administrative Expense ("G&A")
G&A expenses include corporate overhead such as payroll and benefits for our corporate staff, share-based compensation expense, office rent for our headquarters, audit and other fees for professional services and legal compliance. G&A expenses are reported net of overhead recoveries.
Total G&A expense increased by $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Administrative costs, which include payroll, benefits and non-payroll costs, increased by $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to increased employee count, professional services, insurance, and technology costs.
Total G&A expense increased by $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Administrative costs, which include payroll, benefits and non-payroll costs, increased by $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to increased employee count, professional services, insurance, and technology costs.
Transaction Costs
Transaction costs represent costs incurred on successful or unsuccessful business combinations or unsuccessful property acquisitions. The transaction costs of $3.7 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily relate to the New Mexico Acquisition. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the transaction costs of $2.6 million primarily related to a potential business combination and related financing that the Company pursued but ultimately chose not to consummate due to changing market conditions.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by $9.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, and $9.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense is due to the higher debt balances as a result of financing for the New Mexico Acquisition.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives
The Company recognizes settlements and changes in the fair value of its derivative contracts as a single component within other income (expense) on its condensed consolidated statements of operations. We have oil and natural gas derivative contracts, including fixed price swaps, basis swaps and collars, that settle against various indices. The following table presents the components of the Company's gain (loss) on derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
| (In thousands)
Settlements on derivative contracts | $ | (2,303) |  |  | $ | (25,783) |  |  | $ | (7,391) |  |  | $ | (44,158) |
Non-cash gain (loss) on derivatives | 10,968 |  |  | 13,420 |  |  | 21,811 |  |  | (17,837) |
Gain (loss) on derivatives | $ | 8,665 |  |  | $ | (12,363) |  |  | $ | 14,420 |  |  | $ | (61,995) |

Our earnings are affected by the changes in value of our derivative portfolio between periods and the related cash received or paid upon settlement of our derivatives. To the extent the future commodity price outlook declines between periods, we will have mark-to-market gains, while future commodity price increases between measurement periods result in mark-to-market losses.
The gain (loss) on derivatives for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $8.7 million and $(12.4) million, respectively. The non-cash gains on derivatives for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were driven by higher contract pricing when compared to forward pricing at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in the loss on settlements on derivatives was due to the decrease in oil and natural gas prices for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.
The gain (loss) on derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $14.4 million and $(62.0) million, respectively. The non-cash gain on derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was driven by new contracts entered into during the period and higher contract pricing when compared to forward pricing at June 30, 2023. The non-cash loss on derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was driven by lower contract pricing when compared to forward pricing at June 30, 2022. The decrease in the loss on settlements on derivatives was due to the decrease in oil and natural gas prices for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Income Tax Expense
Deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the future tax consequences or benefits of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements using enacted tax rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The business of exploring for, developing and producing oil and natural gas is capital intensive. Because oil, natural gas and NGL reserves are a depleting resource, like all upstream operators, we must make capital investments to grow and even sustain production. The Company’s principal liquidity requirements are to finance its operations, fund capital expenditures and acquisitions, make cash distributions and satisfy any indebtedness obligations. Cash flows are subject to a number of variables,
33

including the level of oil and natural gas production and prices, and the significant capital expenditures required to more fully develop the Company’s oil and natural gas properties. Historically, our primary sources of capital funding and liquidity have been our cash on hand, cash flow from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. At times and as needed, we may also issue debt or equity securities, including through transactions under our shelf registration statement filed with the SEC. In April 2023, the Company amended its Credit Facility to increase the borrowing base and issued Senior Notes to fund the New Mexico Acquisition. We estimate the combination of the sources of capital discussed above will continue to be adequate to meet our short and long-term liquidity needs.
Cash on hand and operating cash flow can be subject to fluctuations due to trends and uncertainties that are beyond our control. Both purchaser and market constraints could impact our gas sales in the future. The Company may also experience periodic curtailments on natural gas produced in excess of our contractual processing capacity. Likewise, our ability to issue equity and obtain credit facilities on favorable terms may be impacted by a variety of market factors as well as fluctuations in our results of operations.
Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, a portion of the Company's oil, natural gas and NGL sales have been negatively impacted due to downstream operational disruptions encountered by third parties we rely on to process our oil and natural gas production. As a result of the disruptions, the Company chose to temporarily shut in its New Mexico field to prevent flaring until volumes could be processed again, with some wells still shut-in as of August 7, 2023. The Company continues to monitor its counterparties' ability to process its production. Management currently estimates that such production shut-ins to date have not resulted in a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. The disruption arising from this and similar circumstances may last from a few days to several months and management is unable to forecast the financial impact of any such future disruption; however, at this time, the Company anticipates maintaining full-year average production results.
For further discussion of risks related to our liquidity and capital resources, see "Item 1A. Risk Factors."
Working Capital
Working capital is the difference in our current assets and our current liabilities. Working capital is an indication of liquidity and potential need for short-term funding. The change in our working capital requirements is driven generally by changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable, commodity prices, credit extended to, and the timing of collections from customers, the level and timing of spending for expansion activity, and the timing of debt maturities. As of June 30, 2023, we had a working capital deficit of $33.7 million compared to a deficit of $25.3 million as of December 31, 2022. The working capital deficit at June 30, 2023 reflects an increase in both current assets and current liabilities due to the New Mexico Acquisition. Current liabilities increased $20 million for the current portion of our long-term debt from the addition of the Senior Notes during the second quarter, partially offset by $2.1 million in current derivative liabilities compared to $16.5 million in current derivative liabilities at December 31, 2022. We utilize our Credit Facility and cash on hand to manage the timing of cash flows and fund short-term working capital deficits. Our current derivative assets and liabilities represent the mark-to-market value as of June 30, 2023 of future commodity production which will settle on a monthly basis through the end of their contractual terms. This aligns with the receipt of oil and natural gas revenues on a monthly basis.
