10. Derivative Instruments

 

The Company is exposed to commodity price risks relating to its ongoing business operations. From time to time, the Company will manage commodity price risks by entering into certain derivative financial instruments. Derivative instruments are carried at fair value on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as assets or liabilities, with the changes in the fair value included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income for the period in which the change occurs. With respect to the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value, refer to Note 9, “Fair Value Disclosures,” for discussion of their classification within the fair value hierarchy. The Company has elected not to designate any of its derivative contracts for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company records the net change in the mark-to-market valuation of these derivative contracts, as well as all payments and receipts on settled derivative contracts, in “unrealized (loss) on derivative instruments” on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s derivative financial instruments consisted of fixed price swaps indexed to West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil, whereby the Company receives or makes payments based on a differential between fixed and variable prices for the volumes under contract. The derivative agreements do not contain credit-risk-related contingent features. There are no amounts of related financial collateral received or pledged. The Company does not use any of its derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

 

The following table summarizes the location and fair value amounts of all commodity derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

As of March 31, 2026, the Company is party to derivative contracts with one counterparty. The Company believes the counterparty is of acceptable credit risk, and the creditworthiness of the counterparty is subject to periodic review. The assets and liabilities are netted given that all positions are held by a single counterparty and subject to a master netting arrangement. The combined fair value of derivatives included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, is summarized below (in thousands):
