​

Readers are cautioned against unduly relying on forward-looking statements which, by their nature, involve numerous assumptions and are subject to both known and unknown risks and uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) that may cause actual events or results to differ materially and/or adversely from those expressed or implied, which include, but are not limited to, the following assumptions:

| ● | future commodity prices and basis differentials;

| ● | our ability to access credit facilities and shelf prospectuses;

| ● | assumptions contained in our corporate guidance;

| ● | the availability of attractive commodity or financial hedges and the enforceability of risk management programs;

| ● | expectations that counterparties will fulfill their obligations pursuant to gathering, processing, transportation and marketing agreements;

| ● | access to adequate gathering, transportation, processing and storage facilities;

| ● | assumed tax, royalty and regulatory regimes;

| ● | expectations and projections made in light of, and generally consistent with, our historical experience and our perception of historical industry trends; and

| ● | the other assumptions contained herein.

​

Readers are cautioned that the assumptions, risks and uncertainties referenced above, and in the other documents incorporated herein by reference (if any), are not exhaustive. Although we believe the expectations represented by our forward-looking statements are reasonable based on the information available to us as of the date such statements are made, forward-looking statements are only predictions and statements of our current beliefs and there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.

When considering any forward-looking statement, the reader should keep in mind the risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements herein include the timing and extent of changes in commodity prices for oil, natural gas and NGLs, operating risks and other risk factors as described under the Risk Factors section of our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, as well as the other disclosures contained herein, therein, and as also may be described from time to time in future reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There also may be other factors that we cannot anticipate or that are not described in this report, generally because we do not currently perceive them to be material. Such factors could cause results to differ materially from our expectations.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake to update these statements other than as required by law. Readers are advised, however, to review any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

EVOLUTION PETROLEUM CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Financial Statement Presentation

Nature of Operations. Evolution Petroleum Corporation (“Evolution,” and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an independent energy company focused on maximizing returns to shareholders through the ownership of and investment in onshore oil and natural gas properties in the United States. The Company’s long-term goal is to maximize total shareholder return from a diversified portfolio of long-life oil and natural gas properties built through acquisitions and through selective development opportunities, production enhancement, and other exploitation efforts on its oil and natural gas properties.

The Company’s oil and natural gas properties consist of non-operated interests in the following areas: the SCOOP and STACK plays of the Anadarko Basin located in central Oklahoma; the Chaveroo oilfield in Chaves and Roosevelt Counties of New Mexico; the Jonah Field in Sublette County, Wyoming; the Williston Basin in North Dakota; the Barnett Shale located in North Texas; the Hamilton Dome Field located in Hot Springs County, Wyoming, a secondary recovery field utilizing water injection wells to pressurize the reservoir; the Delhi Holt-Bryant Unit in the Delhi Field in Northeast Louisiana, a CO2 enhanced oil recovery project; as well as small overriding royalty interests in four onshore Texas wells.

Interim Financial Statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the appropriate rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included. The interim financial information and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, as filed with the SEC on September 11, 2024. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year. The Company has evaluated events and transactions through the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation and Reporting. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Evolution Petroleum Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the previous year may be condensed or include certain reclassifications to conform to the current presentation.

Risk and Uncertainties. The Company’s oil and natural gas interests are operated by third-party operators and involve other third-party working interest owners. As a result, the Company has limited ability to influence the operation or future development of such properties. However, the Company is proactive with its third-party operators to review the management of capital expenditures.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties. The Company uses the full-cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and natural gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties, including unproductive wells, are capitalized. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to property acquisition, exploration, and development activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. Oil and natural gas properties include costs that are excluded from depletion and amortization, which represent investments in unproved and unevaluated properties and include non-producing leasehold, geologic and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests, and exploration drilling costs. These costs are excluded until the project is evaluated and proved reserves are established or impairment is determined.

​

Use of Estimates. The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. Significant

estimates include (a) reserve quantities and estimated future cash flows associated with proved reserves, which may significantly impact depletion expense and potential impairments of oil and natural gas properties, (b) asset retirement obligations, (c) stock-based compensation, (d) fair values of derivative contract assets and liabilities, (e) income taxes and the valuation of deferred income tax assets, (f) commitments and contingencies, and (g) accruals of crude oil, natural gas, and NGL revenues and expenses. The Company analyzes estimates and judgments based on historical experience and various other assumptions and information that are believed to be reasonable. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty and, accordingly, these estimates may change as additional information is obtained, as new events occur, and as the Company’s environment changes. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 increases the transparency of expense information presented in the statement of operations through disclosures of expanded disaggregation of relevant expense captions including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depletion, depreciation, and amortization. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2024-03 and the impact it may have to the Company’s disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures by expanding the income tax rate reconciliation disclosure and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 and the impact it may have to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flow or disclosures.

In November 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 expands the segment disclosures, even for entities with only one reportable segment, to include additional information about significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis as well as the title and position of the chief operating decision maker. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and entities must adopt the amendment retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-07 and the impact it may have to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flow or disclosures.

Other accounting pronouncements that have recently been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Note 2. Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are primarily generated from its crude oil, natural gas and NGL production from the SCOOP and STACK plays in central Oklahoma, the Chaveroo oilfield in Chaves and Roosevelt Counties of New Mexico, the Jonah Field in Sublette County, Wyoming, the Williston Basin in North Dakota, the Barnett Shale located in North Texas, the Hamilton Dome Field in Wyoming, and the Delhi Field in Northeast Louisiana. Additionally, an overriding royalty interest retained in a past divestiture of Texas properties provides de minimis revenue. The following table

disaggregates the Company’s revenues by major product for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
| ​ | Three Months Ended | ​ | Six Months Ended
​ | ​ | December 31, | ​ | December 31,
|  | 2024 | ​ | 2023 | ​ | 2024 |  | 2023
Revenues | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Crude oil | ​ | $ | 11,763 | ​ | $ | 11,759 | ​ | $ | 26,500 | ​ | $ | 24,375
Natural gas | ​ | ​ | 5,793 | ​ | ​ | 6,531 | ​ | ​ | 10,078 | ​ | ​ | 12,083
Natural gas liquids | ​ | ​ | 2,719 | ​ | ​ | 2,734 | ​ | ​ | 5,593 | ​ | ​ | 5,167
Total revenues | ​ | $ | 20,275 | ​ | $ | 21,024 | ​ | $ | 42,171 | ​ | $ | 41,625

​

In the Jonah Field, the Company has elected to take its natural gas and NGL working interest production in-kind and markets its NGL production to Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (“Enterprise”) and its natural gas production to different purchasers.

The Company does not take production in-kind at any of its other properties and does not negotiate contracts with customers for such production. The Company recognizes crude oil, natural gas, and NGL production revenue at the point in time when custody and title (“control”) of the product transfers to the customer. The sales of oil and natural gas are made under contracts which the Company’s third-party operators of its wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered in the current month. The Company typically receives payment from the sale of oil and natural gas production one to two months after delivery.

Judgments made in applying the guidance in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, relate primarily to determining the point in time when control of product transfers to the customer. The Company does not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including amounts that represent variable consideration, as volume and price carry a low level of estimation uncertainty given the precision of volumetric measurements and the use of index pricing with predictable differentials. Accordingly, the Company does not consider estimates of variable consideration to be constrained.

The Company’s contractual performance obligations arise upon the production of hydrocarbons from wells in which the Company has an ownership interest. The performance obligations are considered satisfied upon control of produced hydrocarbons transferring to a customer at a specified delivery point. Consideration is allocated to completed performance obligations at the end of an accounting period.

Revenue is recorded in the month when contractual performance obligations are satisfied. However, settlement statements from the purchasers of hydrocarbons and the related cash consideration are received by field operators one to two months before the Company receives payment and documentation from the operator, which is typical in the oil and natural gas industry. As a result, the Company must estimate the amount of production delivered to the customer and the consideration that will ultimately be received for the sale of the product. To estimate accounts receivable from operators’ contracts with customers, the Company uses knowledge of its properties, information from field operators, historical performance, contractual arrangements, index pricing, quality and transportation differentials, and other factors. Because the contractual performance obligations have been satisfied and an unconditional right to consideration exists as of the balance sheet date, the Company recognized amounts due from contracts with field operators as “Receivables from crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids revenues” on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Differences between estimates and actual amounts received for product sales are recorded in the month that payments received from purchasers are remitted to the Company by field operators.

Note 3. Acquisitions

SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions

On February 12, 2024, the Company closed the acquisitions of certain non-operated oil and natural gas assets in the SCOOP and STACK plays in central Oklahoma (the "SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions") from Red Sky Resources III, LLC, Red Sky Resources IV, LLC, and Coriolis Energy Partners I, LLC. After taking into account customary closing adjustments and an effective date of November 1, 2023, total combined cash consideration for the SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions was approximately $39.1 million, which includes $43.9 million paid at closing less purchase price adjustments totaling approximately $4.8 million related to net cash flows received on the properties subsequent to closing. The Company accounted for these transactions as asset acquisitions and allocated all of the combined purchase price (including $0.3 million of transaction costs) to proved oil and natural gas properties. In addition, the Company recognized $0.1 million in non-cash asset retirement obligations, the estimated net present value of future net retirement costs. The transactions were funded with cash on hand and $42.5 million in borrowings under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility.

​

The acquired assets consist of an average net working interest of approximately 2.6%, in 263 producing wells in the SCOOP and STACK plays of the Anadarko Basin in Oklahoma.

​

Chaveroo Oilfield Participation Agreement

​

On September 12, 2023, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement with PEDEVCO for the joint development of a portion of PEDEVCO’s Permian Basin property in the Chaveroo oilfield, located in Chaves and Roosevelt Counties, New Mexico. In accordance with the Participation Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to elect to participate and acquire a 50% working interest share in certain development blocks at a fixed price of $450 per net acre for up to a total of approximately 16,000 gross acres. The Participation Agreement does not include any of PEDEVCO’s existing vertical or horizontal wells.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company has incurred approximately $0.8 million in exchange for a 50% working interest share in the existing leases associated with five development blocks. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has participated in the drilling and completion of the first development block, consisting of three gross wells (1.5 net wells). Drilling operations on development block two commenced in January 2025, consisting of four drilling locations.

​

Note 4. Property and Equipment

Property and equipment as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 consisted of the following (in thousands):

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ |  | December 31, 2024 |  | June 30, 2024
Oil and natural gas properties | ​ | ​ |  | ​ | ​ |
Property costs subject to amortization | ​ | $ | 251,945 | ​ | $ | 249,559
Less: Accumulated depletion, depreciation, and impairment | ​ | ​ | (120,223) | ​ | ​ | (109,874)
Oil and natural gas properties, net | ​ | $ | 131,722 | ​ | $ | 139,685

​

The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and natural gas properties. All costs of acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas reserves are capitalized as the cost of oil and natural gas properties when incurred. To the extent capitalized costs of evaluated oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depletion, exceed the discounted future net revenues of proved oil and natural gas reserves, net of deferred taxes, such excess capitalized costs would be charged to expense as a write-down of oil and natural gas properties.

Additionally, the Company assesses all properties classified as unevaluated property on a quarterly basis for possible impairment. The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group, if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and

11

Table of Contents

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate impairment, the cumulative drilling costs incurred to date for such property and all or a portion of the associated leasehold costs are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to depletion and the full cost ceiling test limitation.

Depletion on oil and natural gas properties was $10.3 million and $8.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred development capital expenditures of $2.2 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

At December 31, 2024, the ceiling test value of the Company’s reserves was calculated based on the first-day-of-the-month average for the 12-months ended December 31, 2024 of the West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil spot price of $76.32 per barrel and Henry Hub natural gas spot price of $2.13 per MMBtu, adjusted by market differentials by field. The net price per barrel of NGLs was $22.60, which was based on historical differentials to WTI as NGLs do not have any single comparable reference index price. Using these prices, at December 31, 2024 the cost center ceiling was higher than the capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties and, as a result, no write-down was applicable.

At December 31, 2023, the ceiling test value of the Company’s reserves was calculated based on the first-day-of the month average for the 12-months ended December 31, 2023 of the WTI crude oil spot price of $78.21 per barrel and Henry Hub natural gas spot price of $2.63 per MMBtu, adjusted by market differentials by field. The net price per barrel of NGLs was $31.57, which was based on historical prices received as NGLs do not have any single comparable reference index price. Using these prices, at December 31, 2023 the cost center ceiling was higher than the capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties and, as a result, no write-down was applicable.

Note 5. Senior Secured Credit Facility

On April 11, 2016, the Company entered into a senior secured reserve-based credit facility, as amended, (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”) with MidFirst Bank in an amount up to $50.0 million with a current borrowing base of $50.0 million. On May 5, 2023, the Company entered into the Tenth Amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility extending the maturity to April 9, 2026. The Tenth Amendment also replaced the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.05% to effectively convert SOFR to a LIBOR equivalent. The borrowing base will be redetermined semiannually, with the lenders and the Company each having the right to one interim unscheduled redetermination between any two consecutive semi-annual redeterminations. The borrowing base takes into account the estimated value of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties, proved reserves, total indebtedness, and other relevant factors consistent with customary oil and natural gas lending criteria. The Senior Secured Credit Facility carries a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the undrawn portion of the borrowing base. Any borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either SOFR plus 2.80%, subject to a minimum SOFR of 0.50%, or the Prime Rate, as defined under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, plus 1.00%.

​

The Company may elect, at its option, to prepay any borrowings outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facility without premium or penalty. Amounts outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries and secured by a security interest in substantially all of the properties of the Company and its subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility may be used for the acquisition and development of oil and natural gas properties, investments in cash flow generating properties complimentary to the production of oil and natural gas, and for letters of credit or other general corporate purposes.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains certain events of default, including non-payment; breaches or representation and warranties; non-compliance with covenants; cross-defaults to material indebtedness; voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy; judgments and change in control. The Senior Secured Credit Facility also contains financial covenants including a requirement that the Company maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, (i) a maximum total leverage ratio of not more than 3.00 to 1.00, (ii) a current ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00, and (iii) a consolidated tangible net worth of not less than $40.0 million, each as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $39.5 million borrowings outstanding under its Senior Secured Credit Facility,

12

Table of Contents

EVOLUTION PETROLEUM CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

resulting in $10.5 million of available borrowing capacity. For the six months ended December 31, 2024, the weighted average interest on borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility was 7.80%. As of December 31, 2024, the Company is in compliance with all covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility also contains hedging requirements that apply when there is 25% or more utilization of the Margined Collateral Value, as defined under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, to the extent it exceeds the borrowing base then in effect. The Required Hedging Percentage, as defined in the Eighth Amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility dated November 9, 2021, provides for a tiered approach for adding hedges based on the utilization of the facility. On February 12, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, which required that the Company enter into hedges for the next 12-month period, and on a rolling 12-month basis thereafter, covering expected crude oil and natural gas production from proved developed reserves, calculated separately, equal to a minimum of 40% of expected crude oil production each month, or 25% of expected crude oil and natural gas production each month over that period. Thus, the Company had the option to choose whether to hedge 40% of expected crude oil production or 25% each of expected crude oil and natural gas production.

As a result of the fall borrowing base redetermination, the utilization percentage of the Senior Secured Credit Facility increased whereby the Company will be required to hedge 50% of its expected crude oil and natural gas production. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company will either make principal repayments of approximately $7.0 million to MidFirst, reducing the borrowings outstanding to such a level that the utilization percentage of the facility drops below 50%, or enter into additional derivative contracts to hedge at least 50% of expected crude oil and natural gas production. See Note 7, “Derivatives,” for information regarding the Company’s current derivative positions.

Note 6. Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return in the United States and various combined and separate filings in several state and local jurisdictions.

There were no unrecognized tax benefits, nor any accrued interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits during the periods presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions taken and to be taken on the Company’s tax returns and that the accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on its assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter. The Company’s federal and state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 through June 30, 2023 for federal tax purposes and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 through June 30, 2023 for state tax purposes. To the extent the Company utilizes net operating losses (“NOLs”) generated in earlier years, such earlier years may also be subject to audit.

For six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized income tax expense of $0.1 million and had an effective tax rate of 31.4% compared to income tax expense of $1.0 million and an effective tax rate of 28.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

The Company’s effective tax rate will typically differ from the statutory federal rate as a result of state income taxes, primarily in the states of Louisiana, Oklahoma, North Dakota and Texas, percentage depletion in excess of basis, and other permanent differences. For both periods, the respective statutory federal tax rate was 21%.

​

Deferred income taxes primarily represent the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

Note 7. Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations, including commodity price risk and interest rate risk. In accordance with the Company’s strategy and the requirements under the Senior Secured Credit

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Facility (as discussed in Note 5, “Senior Secured Credit Facility”), it may hedge or may be required to hedge a varying portion of anticipated oil and natural gas production for future periods. Derivatives 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 operations for the period in which the change occurs. The Company’s hedge strategies and objectives may change significantly as its operational profile changes or as required under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes.

It is the Company’s policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy financial or commodity hedging institutions deemed by management as competent and competitive market makers. As of December 31, 2024, the Company did not post collateral under any of its derivative contracts during the periods in which contracts were open as they were secured under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility.

When the Company utilizes commodity derivative contracts, it expects to enter into deferred premium puts, costless put/call collars, fixed-price swaps, and/or basis swaps to hedge a portion of its anticipated future production. A costless collar consists of a sold call, which establishes a maximum price the Company will receive for the volumes under contract, and a purchased put that establishes a minimum price. Fixed-price swaps are designed so that the Company receives or makes payments based on a differential between fixed and variable prices for the volumes under contract. Basis swaps effectively lock in a price differential between regional prices (i.e., Inside FERC’s Northwest Pipeline Corp Rocky Mountains) where the product is sold and the relevant pricing index under which the natural gas production is hedged (i.e., NYMEX Henry Hub). The Company has elected not to designate its open derivative contracts for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company records the net change in the mark-to-market valuation of the derivative contracts and all payments and receipts on settled derivative contracts in “Net gain (loss) on derivative contracts” on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

All derivative contracts are recorded at fair market value in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) and ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) and included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as assets or liabilities. The “Derivative contract assets” and “Derivative contract liabilities” represent the difference between the market commodity prices and the hedged prices for the remaining volumes of production hedges as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 (the “mark-to-market valuation”).

The following table summarizes the location and fair value amounts of all derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 (in thousands):

The Company enters into an International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreements (“ISDA”) with each counterparty prior to a derivative contract with such counterparty. The ISDA is a standard contract that governs all derivative contracts entered into between the Company and the respective counterparty. The ISDA allows for offsetting

of amounts payable or receivable between the Company and the counterparty, at the election of both parties, for transactions that occur on the same date and in the same currency.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurement

Accounting guidelines for measuring fair value establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement.

The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs for which there are little or no market data and which the Company makes its own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets and liabilities.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments. The Company’s determination of fair value incorporates not only the credit standing of the counterparties involved in transactions with the Company resulting in receivables on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, but also the impact of the Company’s nonperformance risk on its own liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable (Level 1) market corroborated (Level 2), or generally unobservable (Level 3). The Company classifies fair value balances based on observability of those inputs.

​

As required by ASC 820, a financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgement, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels for any period presented in this report. The following table, set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, shows the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 (in thousands).

Derivative contracts listed above as Level 2 include fixed-price swaps and costless put/call collars that are carried at fair value. The Company records the net change in fair value of these positions in “Net gain (loss) on derivative contracts” in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company is able to value the assets and liabilities based on observable market data for similar instruments, which resulted in the Company reporting its derivatives as Level 2. This observable data includes the forward curves for commodity prices based on quoted market prices and implied volatility factors related to changes in the forward curves. See Note 7, “Derivatives,” for additional discussion of derivatives.

The Company’s derivative contracts are with large utilities with investment grade credit ratings which are believed to have minimal credit risk. As such, the Company is exposed to credit risk to the extent of nonperformance by the counterparties in the derivative contracts; however, the Company does not expect such nonperformance.

Other Fair Value Measurements. The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of ASC 825, Financial Instruments. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature. The estimated fair value of the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility approximates carrying value because the interest rates approximate current market rates.

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820, for nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These provisions apply to the Company’s initial measurement and any subsequent revision of asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) for which fair value is calculated using discounted future cash flows derived from historical costs and management’s expectations of future cost environments. Significant Level 3 inputs used in the calculation of ARO include the costs of plugging and abandoning wells, surface restoration, and reserve lives. Subsequent to initial recognition, revisions to estimated asset retirement obligations are made when changes occur for input values. See Note 9, “Asset Retirement Obligations,” for a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the liability for the Company’s ARO.

Note 9. Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company’s ARO represents the estimated present value of the amount expected to be incurred to plug, abandon, and remediate its oil and natural gas properties at the end of their productive lives in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The Company records the ARO liability on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and capitalizes the cost in “Oil and natural gas properties, net” during the period in which the obligation is incurred. The Company records the accretion of its ARO liabilities in “Depletion, depreciation and accretion” expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following is a reconciliation of the activity related to the Company’s ARO liability (inclusive of the current portion) for the period ended December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies in the normal course of business. In addition, from time to time, the Company receives communications from government or regulatory agencies concerning investigations or allegations of noncompliance with laws or regulations in jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company discloses such matters if it believes there is a reasonable possibility that a future event or events will confirm a material loss through impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a material liability. The Company accrues a material loss if it believes it probable that a future event or events will confirm a loss and the loss is reasonably subject to estimation. Furthermore, the Company will disclose any matter that is unasserted if it considers it probable that a claim will be asserted and there is a reasonable possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable and material in amount. The Company expenses legal defense costs as they are incurred.

Note 11. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 34,076,846 shares of common stock outstanding.

The Company began paying quarterly cash dividends on common stock in December 2013. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has cumulatively paid over $126.6 million in cash dividends. The Company paid dividends of $8.1 million and $8.0 million to its common stockholders during the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The following table reflects the dividends paid per share within the respective three-month periods:

​

On October 21, 2024, the Company entered into an At-the-Market (“ATM”) equity Sales Agreement (the “ATM Sales Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Lead Agent”), Northland Securities Inc., and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell, from time to time, up to $30.0 million of shares of common stock through or to the Lead Agent, acting as agent or principal. During the period ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold a total of approximately 0.4 million shares of its common stock under the ATM Sales Agreement for net proceeds of approximately $2.0 million, after deducting an initial $0.2 million in fees for due diligence incurred with the offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from any sales of common stock for general corporate purposes, including to redeem or repay outstanding indebtedness. The Company is not obligated to sell any shares of common stock in the future.

On September 8, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program, under which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $25.0 million of its common stock in the open market through December 31, 2024. The Company funded repurchases from working capital and cash provided by operating activities. The share repurchase program was complimentary to the existing dividend policy and was a tax efficient means to further improve shareholder return. The shares were repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, through privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The Company repurchased a total of 0.8 million shares of its common stock under the program at a total cost of approximately $4.6 million, including incremental direct transaction costs.

During the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company acquired treasury stock upon the ordinary course of scheduled vestings of employee stock-based awards to fund payroll tax withholding obligations. These treasury shares were subsequently cancelled. Such shares were valued at fair market value on the date of vesting.

Expected Tax Treatment of Dividends

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, all common stock dividends for that fiscal year were treated for tax purposes as qualified dividend income to the recipients. Based on its current projections for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Company expects all common stock dividends for such period to be treated as qualified dividend income to the recipients. Such projections are based on the Company’s reasonable expectations as of December 31, 2024 and are subject to change based on the Company’s final tax calculations at the end of the fiscal year.

Stock-Based Incentive Plan

The Evolution Petroleum Corporation 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) authorized the issuance of 3.6 million shares of common stock prior to its expiration on December 8, 2026. On December 5, 2024 shareholders approved and adopted the amendment and restatement of the 2016 Plan (hereinafter the “Amended and Restated Plan”), which increased the shares authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan by 2.1 million shares to a maximum of 5.7 million shares. The duration of the Amended and Restated Plan is indefinite, provided that no new awards shall be made under the Amended and Restated Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the date the stockholders approved the Amended and Restated Plan. Incentives under the Amended and Restated Plan may be granted to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company in any one or a combination of the following forms: incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, and performance share awards. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, approximately 2.5 million shares and 0.9 million shares, respectively, remained available for grant under the Amended and Restated Plan.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the grant date to provide the basis for future compensation expense. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized $0.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively, related to stock-based compensation. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, related to stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded as a component of “General and administrative expenses” on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Time-Vested Restricted Stock Awards

Time-vested restricted stock awards contain service-based vesting conditions and expire after a maximum of four years from the date of grant if unvested. The common shares underlying these awards are issued on the date of grant and participate in dividends paid by the Company. These service-based awards vest with continuous employment by the Company, generally in annual installments over terms of three to four years. Awards to the Company’s directors generally have one-year cliff vesting. For such awards, grant date fair value is based on market value of the Company’s common stock at the time of grant. This value is then amortized ratably over the service period. Previously recognized amortization expense subsequent to the last vesting date of an award is reversed in the event that the holder has no longer rendered service to the Company resulting in forfeiture of the award.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Awards and Performance-Based Contingent Stock Units

Performance-based restricted stock awards and performance-based contingent stock units contain market-based vesting conditions based on the price of the Company’s common stock, the intrinsic value indexed solely to its common stock or the intrinsic value indexed to its common stock compared to the performance of the common stock of its peers. The common shares underlying the Company’s performance-based restricted stock awards are issued on the date of grant and

19

Table of Contents

EVOLUTION PETROLEUM CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

participate in dividends paid by the Company and expire after a maximum of four years from the date of grant if unvested. Performance-based contingent share units do not participate in dividends and shares are only issued in part or in full upon the attainment of vesting conditions, generally have a lower probability of achievement and expire after a maximum of four years from the date of grant if unvested. Shares underlying performance-based contingent share units are reserved from the 2016 Plan. Performance-based restricted stock awards and contingent restricted stock units are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation and geometric Brownian motion techniques applied to the historical volatility of the Company’s total stock return compared to the historical volatilities of other companies or indices to which the Company compares its performance and/or the Company’s absolute total stock return. For certain awards, this Monte Carlo simulation also provides an expected vesting term. Stock-based compensation is recognized ratably over the expected vesting period, so long as the award holder remains an employee of the Company. Previously recognized compensation expense is only reversed for the awards with market-based vesting conditions if the requisite service period is not rendered by the holder resulting in forfeiture of the award or as a result of regulatory required clawback.

Vesting of grants with performance-based vesting conditions is dependent on the future price of the Company’s common stock. Such awards vest in part or in full if the trailing total returns on the Company’s common stock for a specified three-year period exceed the corresponding total returns of various quartiles of indices consisting of peer companies.

During the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company granted a total of 0.5 million equity awards that included 0.2 million time-vested restricted stock awards, 0.2 million performance-based restricted stock awards, and 0.1 million performance-based contingent stock units.

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company granted a total of 0.4 million equity awards that included 0.2 million time-vested restricted stock awards, 0.1 million performance-based restricted stock awards, and 0.1 million of performance-based contingent stock units.

For performance-based awards granted during the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation valuations were as follows:

Executive Overview

General

Evolution Petroleum Corporation is an independent energy company focused on maximizing total returns to its shareholders through the ownership of and investment in onshore oil and natural gas properties in the United States. In support of that objective, our long-term goal is to maximize total shareholder return from a diversified portfolio of long-life oil and natural gas properties built through acquisitions and through selective development opportunities, production enhancements, and other exploitation efforts on our oil and natural gas properties.

Our oil and natural gas properties consist of non-operated interests in the SCOOP and STACK plays of the Anadarko Basin located in central Oklahoma; the Chaveroo oilfield in Chaves and Roosevelt Counties of New Mexico; Jonah Field in Sublette County, Wyoming; the Williston Basin in North Dakota; the Barnett Shale located in North Texas; the Hamilton Dome Field located in Hot Springs County, Wyoming; the Delhi Holt-Bryant Unit in the Delhi Field in Northeast Louisiana; and small overriding royalty interests in four onshore central Texas wells.

Our non-operated interests in the SCOOP and STACK plays consist of oil and natural gas producing properties in the Anadarko basin, where we hold approximately 2.6% average net working interest and approximately 2.0% average net revenue interests located on approximately 103,700 gross or 4,200 net acres (approximately 96% held by production), across Blaine, Canadian, Carter, Custer, Dewey, Garvin, Grady, Kingfisher, McClain, Murray, and Stephens counties in Oklahoma. The oil and natural gas properties are operated by Continental Resources, Inc., Ovintiv USA Inc. and EOG Resources, Inc. with approximately 40% of wells operated by other operators.

Our non-operated interests in the Chaveroo oilfield consist of a 50% net working interest, with an average associated 41% revenue interest, in approximately 3,200 gross or 1,600 net acres all held by production, associated with five development blocks with the right to acquire the same working interest in additional development locations and associated acreage at a fixed price. The field is operated by PEDEVCO Corp. (“PEDEVCO”).

Our non-operated interests in the Jonah Field, a natural gas and NGL property in Sublette County, Wyoming, consist of approximately 20% average net working interest and approximately 15% average net revenue interest located on approximately 5,300 gross or 950 net acres all held by production. The properties are operated by Jonah Energy.

Our non-operated interests in the Williston Basin, an oil and natural gas producing property, consist of approximately 39% average net working interest and approximately 33% average net revenue interest located on approximately

23

Table of Contents

141,400 gross or 42,200 net acres (approximately 95% held by production) across Billings, Golden Valley, and McKenzie Counties in North Dakota. The properties are operated by Foundation Energy Management.

Our non-operated interests in the Barnett Shale, a natural gas and NGL producing shale reservoir, consist of approximately 17% average net working interest and approximately 14% average net revenue interest (inclusive of small overriding royalty interests). The approximately 123,800 gross or 21,000 net acres are held by production across nine North Texas counties. The oil and natural gas properties are primarily operated by Diversified Energy Company with approximately 10% of wells operated by six other operators.

Our non-operated interests in the Hamilton Dome Field, a secondary recovery field utilizing water injection wells to pressurize the reservoir, consist of approximately 24% average net working interest, with an associated 20% average net revenue interest (inclusive of a small overriding royalty interest). The approximately 5,900 gross acre unitized field, of which we hold approximately 1,400 net acres, is operated by Merit Energy Company, who owns the majority of the remaining working interest in the Hamilton Dome Field. The Hamilton Dome Field is located in the southwest region of the Big Horn Basin in northwest Wyoming.

Our non-operated interests in the Delhi Field, a CO2-EOR project, consist of approximately 24% average net working interest, with an associated 19% revenue interest and separate overriding royalty and mineral interests of approximately 7% yielding a total average net revenue interest of approximately 26%. The field is operated by Denbury Onshore LLC, a subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation. The approximately 13,600 gross acre unitized Delhi Field, of which we hold approximately 3,200 net acres, is located in northeast Louisiana in Franklin, Madison, and Richland Parishes.

During the six months ended December 31, 2024, crude oil, natural gas and NGL production increased 13% compared to the year-ago period due to our recent acquisitions and development drilling activities since the year-ago period. Our crude oil, natural gas and NGL revenues had a modest increase of 1% over the same period despite our increase in production volumes due to declines in commodity prices. Our lease operating costs for the six months ended December 31, 2024 have decreased 10%, or $2.13 per BOE, compared to the year-ago period. See below for a further discussion around our results of operations and cash flow activities.

Recent Developments

Dividend Declaration

​

On February 10, 2025, Evolution’s Board of Directors approved and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per common share payable March 31, 2025.

​

At-the-Market (“ATM”) Equity Sales Program

​

On October 21, 2024, we entered into an ATM equity Sales Agreement (the “ATM Sales Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Lead Agent”), Northland Securities Inc., and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners pursuant to which we may issue and sell, from time to time, up to $30.0 million of shares of common stock through or to the Lead Agent, acting as agent or principal. During the period ended December 31, 2024, we sold a total of approximately 0.4 million shares of our common stock under the ATM Sales Agreement for net proceeds of approximately $2.0 million, after deducting an initial $0.2 million in fees for due diligence incurred with the offering. We intend to use the net proceeds from any sales of common stock for general corporate purposes, including to redeem or repay outstanding indebtedness. We are not obligated to sell any shares of common stock in the future.

Risks and uncertainties

The oil and natural gas industry is a global market impacted by many factors, such as government regulations, particularly in the areas of trade sanctions, taxation, energy, climate change and the environment, geopolitical instability and armed conflicts (including between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East between Israel and Gaza), demand in Asian and European markets, and the extent to which members of OPEC and other oil exporting nations manage oil supply through export quotas. Natural gas prices are generally determined by North American supply and demand and

24

Table of Contents

are also affected by imports and exports of liquefied natural gas. Weather also has a significant impact on demand for natural gas since it is a primary heating source.

​

Oil and natural gas prices have been, and we expect may continue to be, volatile. Lower oil and natural gas prices not only decrease our revenues, but an extended decline in oil or natural gas prices may affect planned capital expenditures and the oil and natural gas reserves that we can economically produce. Lower oil and natural gas prices may also reduce the amount of our borrowing base under our Senior Secured Credit Facility, which is determined at the discretion of the lenders based on various factors including the collateral value of our proved reserves, as well as the dividend rate determined by the Board of Directors each quarter.

​

At times, we maintain cash balances in excess of the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). We utilize insured cash sweep deposits to maximize the amount of our cash that is protected by FDIC insurance.

Currently, our oil and natural gas properties are operated by third-party operators and involve other third-party working interest owners. As a result, we have limited ability to influence the operation or future development of such properties. Despite these uncertainties, we remain focused on our long-term objectives and continue to be proactive with our third-party operators to review the management of capital expenditures.

​

Given the dynamic nature of these factors and events, we cannot reasonably estimate the period of time that certain market conditions will persist. Nor can we predict the broader impact of liquidity concerns around financial institutions; the impact to long-term cost of capital or economic growth as a result of the Federal Reserve’s policies; or the impact on the commodity prices that we realize.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2024, we had $11.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $39.5 million outstanding borrowings on our Senior Secured Credit Facility compared to $6.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and $39.5 million borrowings outstanding on our Senior Secured Credit Facility at June 30, 2024. Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources during the six months ended December 31, 2024 were cash provided by operations. Our primary uses of liquidity and capital resources for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were our cash dividend payments to our common stockholders and development capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2024, working capital was $10.5 million, an increase of $4.6 million from working capital of $5.9 million as of June 30, 2024.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility has a maximum capacity of $50.0 million subject to a borrowing base determined by the lender based on the value of our oil and natural gas properties. The Senior Secured Credit Facility has a current borrowing base of $50.0 million, with $39.5 million drawn as of December 31, 2024. The Senior Secured Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of our oil and natural gas properties and matures on April 9, 2026.

Borrowings bear interest, at our option, at either the SOFR plus 2.80% or the Prime Rate, as defined under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, plus 1.0%. For the six months ended December 31, 2024, the weighted average interest on our borrowings was 7.80%. The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains covenants requiring the maintenance of (i) a total leverage ratio of not more than 3.00 to 1.00, (ii) a current ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00, and (iii) a consolidated tangible net worth of not less than $40.0 million, each as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. It also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a hedging covenant discussed below, and events of default. As of December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains hedging requirements that apply when there is 25% or more utilization of the Margined Collateral Value, as defined under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, to the extent it exceeds the borrowing base then in effect. The Required Hedging Percentage, as defined in the Eighth Amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility dated November 9, 2021, provides for a tiered approach for adding hedges based on the utilization of the facility. On February 12, 2024, in conjunction with the Scoop/Stack Acquisitions, we entered into an amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, which required us to enter into hedges for the next 12-month period, and on a rolling 12-month basis thereafter, covering expected crude oil and natural gas production from proved developed reserves, calculated separately, equal to a minimum of 40% of expected crude oil production each month, or

25

Table of Contents

25% each of expected crude oil and natural gas production each month over that period. Thus, we had the option to choose whether to hedge 40% of expected crude oil production or 25% each of expected crude oil and natural gas production. As of December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with the hedging requirements under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility requires for redeterminations of the borrowing base to occur semi-annually. At each redetermination, the Margined Collateral Value is updated based on the estimated value of our oil and natural gas properties, which includes our proved developed reserves, proved undeveloped reserves, and other relevant factors consistent with customary oil and natural gas lending criteria. As a result of our fall borrowing base redetermination, the utilization percentage of our Senior Secured Credit Facility increased whereby we will be required to hedge 50% of our expected crude oil and natural gas production. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, we will either make principal repayments of approximately $7.0 million to MidFirst, reducing our borrowings outstanding to such a level that the utilization percentage of the facility drops below 50% or enter into additional derivative contracts to hedge at least 50% of expected crude oil and natural gas production.

We have historically funded operations through cash from operations and working capital. Our primary source of cash is the sale of produced crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs. A portion of these cash flows is used to fund capital expenditures and pay cash dividends to shareholders. We expect to fund near-future capital development activities for our properties with cash flows from operating activities, existing working capital and, as needed, borrowings under our Senior Secured Credit Facility and proceeds from the ATM Sales Agreement (as described in “Recent Developments” above).

We are pursuing new growth opportunities through acquisitions and other transactions. In addition to cash on hand, we have access to the undrawn portion of the borrowing base available under our Senior Secured Credit Facility, totaling $10.5 million as of December 31, 2024. We also have an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC under which we may issue up to $500.0 million of new debt or equity securities.

On October 21, 2024, we entered into an ATM Sales Agreement with Roth Capital Partners, LLC as our Lead Agent, Northland Securities Inc., and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners pursuant to which we may issue and sell, from time to time, up to $30.0 million of shares of common stock through or to the Lead Agent, acting as agent or principal. During the period ended December 31, 2024, we sold a total of approximately 0.4 million shares of our common stock under the ATM Sales Agreement for net proceeds of approximately $2.0 million, after deducting an initial $0.2 million in fees for due diligence incurred with the offering; however, we are not obligated to sell any shares of common stock in the future.

Our Board of Directors instituted a cash dividend on common stock in December 2013. We have since paid 45 consecutive quarterly dividends. Distribution of a substantial portion of free cash flow in excess of operating and capital requirements through cash dividends remains a priority of our financial strategy, and it is our long-term goal to increase dividends over time, as appropriate. On February 10, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock to shareholders of record on March 14, 2025 and payable on March 31, 2025.

​

Capital Expenditures

During the six months ending December 31, 2024, we incurred $2.2 million on development capital expenditures. During the first half of fiscal 2025, capital spending occurred at our fields, including at SCOOP/STACK where our operators are actively drilling and have brought 10 gross wells online during the fiscal year. Based on discussions with our operators, we expect capital workover projects to continue in most of our fields throughout the year.

Overall, for fiscal year 2025, we expect budgeted capital expenditures to be in the range of $12.5 million to $14.5 million, which excludes any potential acquisitions. Our expected capital expenditures for fiscal year 2025 include the 10 gross wells brought online at SCOOP/STACK during the first six months of the fiscal year, discussed above, and bringing an additional eight gross wells online during the remainder of the year. It also includes the drilling and completion of four new gross wells at Chaveroo Field for development block two, which commenced drilling operations in January 2025, and the drilling and completion of one new well at Delhi Field Test Site V.

Full Cost Pool Ceiling Test

Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depletion, depreciation, and amortization and related deferred taxes, are limited to the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and natural gas reserves, discounted at 10%, plus the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties, as adjusted for related income tax effects (the valuation “ceiling”). If capitalized costs exceed the full cost ceiling, the excess would be charged to expense as a write-down of oil and natural gas properties in the quarter in which the excess occurred. The quarterly ceiling test calculation requires that we use the average first day of the month price for our petroleum products during the 12-month period ending with the balance sheet date. The prices used in calculating our ceiling test as of December 31, 2024 were $76.32 per barrel of oil, $2.13 per MMBtu of natural gas and $22.60 per barrel of NGLs. As of December 31, 2024, our capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties were below the full cost valuation ceiling. If commodity price levels were to substantially decline from the 12-month average first day of the month pricing levels as of December 31, 2024 and remain down for a prolonged period of time, our valuation ceiling over our capitalized costs may be reduced and adversely impact our ceiling test results in future quarters. While using the crude oil and natural gas price for January 1, 2025 of $72.44 per barrel and $3.40 per MMBtu, and holding it constant for two months to create a trailing 12-month period of average prices (which is more reflective of recent price trends) would not generate an impairment under our ceiling test limitation, we cannot give assurance that a write-down of capitalized oil and natural gas properties will not be required in the future.

​

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024 increased $4.0 million compared to the six months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to an increase in revenues and changes in the timing of our working capital. Total revenues increased $0.5 million as compared to the prior year period primarily due increased production volumes partially offset by lower commodity prices. Our average daily production increased 832 BOEPD or 13.0% from the prior year period; however our average realized price per barrel of oil equivalent (“BOE”) decreased $3.68, or 10.4% from the prior year period. Refer to “Results of Operations” below for further information.

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024 decreased $1.9 million compared to the six months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to the participation of our drilling and completion of three gross wells in the Chaveroo Field in the prior year partially offset by the addition of our SCOOP/STACK properties and associated development capital expenditures since the prior year period.

Net cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024 decreased $2.0 million compared to the six months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to proceeds received from the sale of our common stock under our ATM Sales Agreement. For the six months ended, December 31, 2024, we paid $8.1 million in cash dividends to our common stockholders and received net proceeds from the sale of common stock under the ATM Sales Agreement of approximately $2.0 million, after deducting and initial $0.2 million of fees for due diligence incurred with the offering. For the six months ended December 31, 2023, we paid $8.0 million in cash dividends to our common stockholders.

Revenues

Crude oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $20.3 million and $21.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in revenues is due to a decrease in our average realized price per BOE partially offset by an increase in production volumes. Our average realized commodity price (excluding the impact of derivative contracts) for the three months ended December 31, 2024 decreased approximately $4.47 per BOE, or 12.3%, over the prior year quarter. The amount we realize for our production depends predominantly upon commodity prices, which are affected by changes in market demand and supply, as impacted by overall economic activity, weather, inventory storage levels, basis differentials and other factors. Realized natural gas prices decreased 18.5% from the year-ago quarter, which was the primary driver of the decrease in revenues. Average daily equivalent production increased 10.0% from 6,304 BOEPD in the prior year quarter to 6,935 BOEPD in the current quarter as a result of the acquisitions of non-operated working interests in the SCOOP/STACK plays in February 2024 and first production of our wells at Chaveroo Field in early February 2024, which collectively increased production for the three months ended December 31, 2024 by approximately 1,200 BOEPD. The overall increase in production is partially offset by natural production declines in our other fields, as well as temporary reductions in oil sales at Williston Basin, where crude oil was left in tanks at quarter-end, combined with reduced oil recovery at Delhi Field as the field experienced a reduction in CO2 injection volumes since the prior year period due to downtime from compressors and the CO2 purchase pipeline taken offline.

​

Lease Operating Costs

Ad valorem and production taxes were $1.4 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in ad valorem and production taxes is primarily due to increases in ad valorem tax rates at Barnett Shale. On a per unit basis, ad valorem and production taxes were $2.26 per BOE and $2.19 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Gathering, transportation and other costs were $2.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Costs include gathering, transportation and processing fees we incur primarily for our natural gas producing properties. The increase is primarily due to t he acquisitions of non-operated working interests in the SCOOP/STACK plays in February 2024 which added $0.5 million in gathering transportation and other costs for the three months ended December 31, 2024. On a per unit basis, gathering transportation and other costs were $4.53 per BOE and $4.30 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Other lease operating costs were $8.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Other lease operating costs decreased primarily due to reduced CO2 purchases at Delhi. CO2 purchases resumed in late October of 2024 and we had net purchases of $1.1 million in CO2 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to net purchases of $1.6 million in the year-ago quarter. Partially offsetting the reduction in CO2 purchases were cost increases due to the acquisitions of non-operated working interests in the SCOOP/STACK plays in February 2024 and the addition of wells drilled since our acquisitions which collectively added $0.4 million in other lease operating costs. On a per unit basis, other lease operating costs were $13.26 per BOE and $14.81 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Depletion of Full Cost Proved Oil and Natural Gas Properties

Depletion expense increased $0.8 million or 18.5% from $4.2 million to $5.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to an increase in the depletion rate and the addition of depletable assets. On a per unit basis, depletion expense was $7.87 per BOE and $7.31 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The depletion rate of our unit of production calculation increased due to an increase in our depletable base due to our SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions and capital expenditures since the year-ago quarter.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $2.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. On a per unit basis, general and administrative expenses were $3.13 per BOE and $3.34 per

Table of Contents

BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease on a per unit basis is the primarily result of the increase in production for the current year quarter.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2024 increased $0.1 million to $0.7 million compared to $0.6 million for the year-ago quarter. The increase is associated with new awards granted since the year-ago quarter.

Net Gain (Loss) on Derivative Contracts

We utilize commodity derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices. We have elected not to designate our open derivative contracts for hedge accounting, and accordingly, we recorded the net change in the mark-to-market valuation of the derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The amounts recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations related to derivative contracts represent the (i) gains (losses) related to fair value adjustments on our open, or unrealized, derivative contracts, and (ii) gains (losses) on settlements of derivative contracts for positions that have settled or been realized. The table below summarizes our net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on derivative contracts as well as the impact of net realized gains (losses) on our average realized prices for the periods presented. As a result of our SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions in February 2024 and the corresponding borrowings on our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we were required by terms in our Senior Secured Credit Facility to hedge a portion of our production. The increase in forward commodity prices as of December 31, 2024 from the prior quarter, resulted in an unrealized loss on the mark-to-market of our hedges for the three months ended December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, we had $1.3 million derivative assets, $1.1 million of which was classified as current, and $1.7 million derivative liabilities, $0.4 million of which was classified as current.

Revenues

Crude oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $42.2 million and $41.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in revenues is primarily due to an increase in production volumes partially offset by the decrease in our average realized price per BOE. Average daily equivalent production increased 13.0% from 6,380 BOEPD in the prior year period to 7,212 BOEPD in the current period as a result of the SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions in February 2024 and first production of our wells at Chaveroo Field in early February 2024, which collectively increased production for the six months ended December 31, 2024 by approximately 1,400 BOEPD. The overall increase in production is partially offset by natural production declines in our other fields combined with reduced oil recovery at Delhi Field as the field experienced reduced CO2 injected volumes during the current period as compared to the prior year period. The CO2 purchase pipeline was taken offline for preventative maintenance at the end of February 2024 and CO2 purchases were not resumed until late October 2024. Our average realized commodity price (excluding the impact of derivative contracts) for the six months ended December 31, 2024 decreased approximately $3.68 per BOE, or 10.4%, over the prior year period. The amount we realize for our production depends predominantly upon commodity prices, which are affected by changes in market demand and supply, as impacted by overall economic activity, weather, inventory storage levels, basis differentials and other factors. Realized natural gas prices decreased 23.7% from the six months ended December 31, 2023, which was the primary driver of the decreased revenues.

​

Lease Operating Costs

Ad valorem and production taxes were $2.9 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in ad valorem and production taxes is primarily due to our SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions since the prior year period. On a per unit basis, ad valorem and production taxes were $2.15 per BOE and $2.17 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The slight decrease on a per BOE basis is a result of the increase in production for the current year period.

Gathering, transportation and other costs were $5.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Costs include gathering, transportation and processing fees we incur primarily for our natural gas producing properties. The increase is primarily due to t he acquisitions of non-operated working interests in the SCOOP/STACK plays in February 2024 which added $1.0 million in gathering, transportation and other costs for the six months ended December 31, 2024. On a per unit basis, gathering, transportation and other costs were $4.28 per BOE and $3.75 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Other lease operating costs were $16.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $17.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Other lease operating costs decreased primarily due to reduced CO2 purchases at Delhi. CO2 purchases resumed in late October of 2024 and we had net purchases $1.1 million of CO2 for the six months ended December 31, 2024 compared to net purchases of $3.2 million in the year-ago period. Partially offsetting the reduction in CO2 purchases were cost increases due to the acquisitions of non-operated working interests in the SCOOP/STACK plays in February 2024 and the addition of wells drilled since acquisitions which collectively added $0.8 million in other lease operating costs. On a per unit basis, other lease operating costs decreased to $12.09 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2024 from $14.73 per BOE in the six months ended December 31, 2023.

Depletion of Full Cost Proved Oil and Natural Gas Properties

Depletion expense increased $2.2 million or 27.0% from $8.1 million to $10.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to an increase in the depletion rate and increase in depletable assets. On a per unit basis, depletion expense was $7.80 per BOE and $6.94 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The depletion rate of our unit of production calculation increased due to an increase in our depletable base due to our SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions and capital expenditures since the year-ago period.

Table of Contents

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $4.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively. The decrease primarily relates to lower transaction and consulting fees. On a per unit basis, general and administrative expenses were $2.99 per BOE and $3.47 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition to lower transaction and consulting fees, the increase in production for the current year period further reduced general and administrative expense on per BOE basis.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended December 31, 2024 increased $0.2 million to $1.2 million compared to $1.0 million for the year-ago period. The increase is associated with new awards granted since the year-ago period.

Net Gain (Loss) on Derivative Contracts

We utilize commodity derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices. We have elected not to designate our open derivative contracts for hedge accounting, and accordingly, we recorded the net change in the mark-to-market valuation of the derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The amounts recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations related to derivative contracts represent the (i) gains (losses) related to fair value adjustments on our open, or unrealized, derivative contracts, and (ii) gains (losses) on settlements of derivative contracts for positions that have settled or been realized. The table below summarizes our net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on derivative contracts as well as the impact of net realized gains (losses) on our average realized prices for the periods presented. As a result of our SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions in February 2024 and the corresponding borrowings on our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we were required by terms in our Senior Secured Credit Facility to hedge a portion of our production. The decrease in forward commodity prices as of December 31, 2024 as compared to June 30, 2024, resulted in an unrealized gain on the mark-to-market of our hedges for the six months ended December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, we had $1.3 million derivative assets, $1.1 million of which was classified as current, and $1.7 million derivative liabilities, $0.4 million of which was classified as current.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $1.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year period primarily due to borrowings drawn on our Senior Secured Credit Facility to finance our SCOOP/STACK Acquisitions in February 2024. The weighted average interest rate on our borrowings was 7.80% for the six months ended December 31, 2024.

Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

For the six months ended December 31, 2024, we recognized income tax expense of $0.1 million on net income before income taxes of $0.4 million compared to income tax expense of $1.0 million on net income before income taxes of $3.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The effective tax rates were 31.4% and 28.5% for six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate increased compared to the year-ago period as projected state income taxes have become a larger component of our overall income tax expense during the current period.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that we select certain accounting policies and make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets, liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These policies, together with our estimates, have a significant effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity

We are exposed to various risks, including energy commodity price risk, such as price differentials between the NYMEX commodity price and the index price at the location where our production is sold. When oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids prices decline significantly, our ability to finance our capital budget and operations may be adversely impacted. We expect energy prices to remain volatile and unpredictable, therefore we monitor commodity prices to identify the potential need for the use of derivative financial instruments to provide partial protection against declines in oil and natural gas prices. We do not enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes. In accordance with our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we may be required to enter into hedges if we meet certain utilization levels of the borrowing base under the credit facility. We intend to remain in compliance with these covenants and will enter into derivative contracts from time to time to meet the requirements. Additionally, depending on market conditions, financial and other considerations we may enter into additional hedges to meet our objectives of increasing value to shareholders.

We are exposed to market risk on our open derivative contracts related to potential non-performance by our counterparties. It is our policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy institutions deemed by management as competitive market makers. For the derivative contracts settled during fiscal 2025 and 2024, we did not post collateral. We account for our derivative activities under the provisions of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 establishes accounting and reporting that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. See Note 7, “Derivatives” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more details.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates. Changes in interest rates affect the interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, any borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility will bear interest, at our option, at either SOFR plus 2.80%, subject to a minimum SOFR of 0.50%, or the Prime Rate, as defined under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, plus 1.00%. SOFR rates are sensitive to the period of contract and market volatility, as well as changes in forward interest rate yields. Under our current practices, we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms. This information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(c) and 15(d)-15(e)) as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving desired control objectives. Based on the foregoing, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2024 our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, we have determined that there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
