FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this report constitute forward-looking statements. The use of any of the words ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘continue,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘project,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ and similar expressions and statements relating to matters that are not historical facts constitute ‘‘forward looking information’’ within the meaning of applicable securities laws. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated. Such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and the forward-looking statements included in this report should not be unduly relied upon. These statements are made only as of the date of this report. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future — including statements relating to natural gas and oil production rates, commodity prices for crude oil or natural gas, supply and demand for natural gas and oil; the estimated quantity of natural gas and oil reserves, including reserve life; future development and production costs, and statements expressing general views about future operating results — are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should consider carefully the statements under Item 1A. Risk Factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 is available on our website at www.epsilonenergyltd.com.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

​

1. Description of Business

Epsilon Energy Ltd. (the “Company” or “Epsilon” or “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada on March 14, 2005. On October 24, 2007, the Company became a publicly traded entity trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) in Canada. On February 14, 2019, Epsilon’s registration statement on Form 10 was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and on February 19, 2019, the Company began trading in the United States on the NASDAQ Global Market under the trading symbol “EPSN.” Effective as of the close of trading on March 15, 2019 Epsilon voluntarily delisted its common shares from the TSX. The Company is engaged in the acquisition, development, gathering and production of primarily natural gas reserves in the United States.

​

2. Basis of Preparation

Interim Financial Statements

​

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the appropriate rules and regulations of the 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 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 consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation

​

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Epsilon Energy USA, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Epsilon Midstream, LLC, Dewey Energy GP, LLC, Dewey Energy Holdings, LLC, Epsilon Operating, LLC, and Altolisa Holdings, LLC. With regard to the gathering system, in which Epsilon owns an undivided interest in the asset, proportionate consolidation accounting is used. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

​

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates pertain to proved natural gas and oil reserves and related cash flow estimates used in impairment tests of natural gas and oil, and gathering system properties, asset retirement obligations, accrued natural gas and oil revenues and operating expenses, accrued gathering system revenues and operating expenses, as well as the valuation of commodity derivative instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

COVID-19

Management is actively monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry and ability to obtain financing in future reporting periods. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is currently not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the future.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

​

The Company, an emerging growth company (“EGC”), has elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period provided for in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards which allows the Company to defer adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), codified as ASC 848 (“ASC 848”). This was followed by ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope (“ASU 2021-01”), issued in January 2021. The purpose of ASC 848 is to provide optional guidance to ease the potential effects on financial reporting of the market-wide migration away from Interbank Offered Rates (“IBORs”) to alternative reference rates. ASC 848 applies only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference a reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance may be applied upon issuance of ASC 848 through December 31, 2022. We do not expect a material impact from the adoption of this ASU.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and modifies other areas of the topic to clarify the application of GAAP. Certain amendments within the standard are required to be applied on a retrospective basis and others on a prospective basis. Effective January 1, 2021, we adopted this ASU with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which removes the thresholds that companies apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, receivables, and held-to-maturity debt securities. Under current U.S. GAAP, companies generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The revised guidance will remove all recognition thresholds and will require companies to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that the Company expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and must be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. Epsilon will adopt ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2023.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (ASU 2016-02), which significantly changes accounting for leases by requiring that lessees recognize a right of use asset and a related lease liability representing the obligation to make lease payments, for all lease transactions with terms greater than one year. Additional disclosures about an entity’s lease transactions will also be required. ASU 2016-02 defines a lease as “a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration.” ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. In July, the FASB voted to extend the adoption date by one year for private and non-profit companies, and thus emerging growth companies as well. As an emerging growth company, Epsilon plans to defer adoption of ASU 2016-02 until the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2021. Lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements using a modified retrospective approach. Epsilon is currently assessing the expected impact on our consolidated financial statements and will adopt for the year beginning in 2022.

3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Restricted cash consists of amounts deposited to back bonds or letters of credit for potential well liabilities. The Company presents restricted cash with cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

​

Property Impairment

Epsilon performs a quantitative impairment test quarterly or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset group's carrying amount may not be recoverable, over proved properties using the published NYMEX forward prices, timing, methods and other assumptions consistent with historical periods. When indicators of impairment are present, GAAP requires that the Company first compares expected future undiscounted cash flows by asset group to their respective carrying values. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, a reduction of the carrying amount of the oil and natural gas properties to their estimated fair values is required, which is determined based on discounted cash flow techniques using significant assumptions including projected revenues, future commodity prices, and a market-specific weighted average cost of capital which are affected by expectations about future market and economic conditions.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, no impairment was required. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Epsilon recognized certain indicators of impairments specific to our Oklahoma assets related to historically low oil and NGL prices and determined that the carrying value of those assets was not recoverable. As a result of this assessment, a $1.76 million impairment was recorded on the Company’s Oklahoma assets during the three months ended March 31, 2020. No further impairment was required at June 30, 2020.

​

​

5. Revolving Line of Credit

Effective July 30, 2013, Epsilon Energy USA Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, executed a three-year senior secured revolving credit facility with a bank (‘‘Credit Facility’’) for a total commitment of up to $100 million.

Table of Contents

Epsilon Energy Ltd.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

​

Upon each advance, interest is charged at the rate of LIBOR plus an ‘‘applicable margin’’. The applicable margin is based on the percent of the line of credit utilized.

The terms “Borrowing Base” and “Mortgaged Properties” include the Company’s gathering system assets in addition to the natural gas and oil properties. The “Required Reserve Value” is the lesser of 90% of the recognized value of all proved natural gas and oil properties or 150% of the then current borrowing base.

On February 11, 2020 the borrowing base was reaffirmed at $23 million and hedging requirements remained unchanged. Currently, when the Company’s utilization exceeds 25%, the Company must have in place acceptable commodity hedging agreements covering at least 75% of projected production for the first full twelve months after such occurrence and 50% of projected production of natural gas for the succeeding six months.

On April 6, 2021 the agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to March 1, 2024 and the borrowing base was decreased from $23 million to $18 million. In addition, the “applicable margin” rates were adjusted from 2.75%-3.75% to 3.25%-4.25%, a LIBOR minimum rate of 0.25% was added, and the leverage ratio compliance threshold was decreased from less than 3.5 to less than 3.0. The amendment also includes a “Benchmark Replacement” definition and transition plan to be used at such time when the LIBOR rate is discontinued. This rate also has a minimum of 0.25%.

On June 28, 2021 the borrowing base was decreased from $18 million to $14 million. This adjusted base will remain in effect until November 1, 2021, which is the date of the next periodic redetermination of the borrowing base.

The lender under the Credit Facility has a first priority security interest in the tangible and intangible assets, including the gathering system, of Epsilon Energy USA, Inc. to secure any outstanding amounts under the agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company must maintain the following covenants:

● Interest coverage ratio greater than 3 based on income adjusted for interest, taxes and non-cash amounts.

● Current ratio, adjusted for line of credit amounts used and available and non-cash amounts, greater than 1.

● Leverage ratio less than 3.0 based on income adjusted for interest, taxes and non-cash amounts.

The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2021 and expects to be in compliance with the financial covenants for the next 12 months.

A commitment fee of 0.50% is assessed quarterly on the daily average unused borrowing base on the Credit Facility.

Normal Course Issuer Bid

Commencing on May 20, 2019, the Company entered into a share repurchase program on the NASDAQ conducted in accordance with Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company was authorized to repurchase up to 1,367,762 of its outstanding common shares, representing 5% of the outstanding common shares of Epsilon as of May 20, 2019, for an aggregate purchase price of not more than $5.0 million. The program ended on May 19, 2020, but Epsilon’s final repurchase under this program occurred on May 8, 2020, and the shares were subsequently cancelled.

Commencing on January 1, 2021, the Company entered into a share repurchase program on the NASDAQ conducted in accordance with Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company is authorized to repurchase up to 1,193,000 of its outstanding common shares, representing 5% of the outstanding common shares of Epsilon as of January 1, 2021. The program will end on December 31, 2021 unless the maximum amount of common shares is purchased before then or Epsilon provides earlier notice of termination.

Repurchases may be made at management’s discretion from time to time through the facilities of the NASDAQ Global Market. The price paid for the common shares will be, subject to applicable securities laws, the prevailing market price of such common shares on the NASDAQ Global Market at the time of such purchase. The Company intends to fund the purchase out of available cash and does not expect to incur debt to fund the share repurchase program. The shares are accounted for as treasury shares until such a time as they are cancelled.

(c)Equity Incentive Plan

Epsilon’s board of directors (the “Board”) adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) on July 22, 2020 subject to approval by Epsilon’s shareholders at Epsilon’s 2020 Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders, which occurred on September 1, 2020 (the “Meeting”). Shareholders approved the 2020 Plan at the Meeting. Following Epsilon’s listing on the NASDAQ Global Market, the Board determined that it is in the best interest of the shareholders to approve a new incentive plan that is compliant with U.S. public company equity plan rules and practices that would replace Epsilon’s Amended and Restated 2017 Stock Option Plan (including its predecessors) and the Share Compensation Plan (collectively referred to as the “Predecessor Plans”). No further awards will be granted under the Predecessor Plans.

​

The 2020 Plan provides for incentive compensation in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and stock units, performance shares and units, other stock-based awards and cash-based awards. Under the 2020 Plan, Epsilon will be authorized to issue up to 2,000,000 Common Shares. As of December 31, 2020, the Company granted, after the Compensation Committee approved the terms, target formulas, and peer group applicable to the performance incentive awards, 214,000 performance stock units (“PSUs”), and 111,900 time-based restricted shares to employees, leaving 1,674,100 shares available to be granted under the 2020 Plan. No shares subject to awards currently outstanding under the Predecessor Plans that expire or are forfeited will become available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

Restricted and Performance Stock Units

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, no shares of Restricted Stock were awarded. For the year ended December 31, 2020, 111,900 common shares of Restricted Stock with a weighted average market price at the grant date of $3.71 were awarded to the Company’s officers, employees, and board of directors. These shares vest over a three-year period, with one-third of the shares being issued per period on the anniversary of the award resolution. The vesting of the shares is contingent on the individuals’ continued employment or service. The Company determined the fair value of the granted Restricted Stock-based on the market price of the common shares of the Company on the date of grant.

The following table summarizes Restricted Stock activity for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and the year ended December 31, 2020:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

​

Stock compensation expense for the granted Restricted Stock is recognized over the vesting period. Stock compensation expense recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $137,207 and $274,413, respectively (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, $172,052 and $344,104, respectively).

At June 30, 2021, the Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation related to these shares of $713,722 to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.01 years (at December 31, 2020: $1,068,819 over 1.2 years).

Performance Share Unit Awards (“PSU”)

The Company grants PSUs, which are paid in stock to certain key employees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, no PSUs were awarded. For the year ended December 31, 2020, 214,000 PSUs. PSUs are based on a three-year performance period with performance being measured each year at December 31. The PSUs will vest on the last day of the performance period. The number of PSUs that will ultimately vest is based on two performance targets as follows:

| ● | The targets for the PSUs are based on (i) the relative total stockholder return (“TSR”) percentile ranking and (ii) the relative cash flow per debt adjusted share – growth (“CFDAS Growth”) percentile ranking of the Company, each as compared to the Company’s Performance Peer Group during the applicable one-year performance period ending on December 31.

14

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

​

| ● | Cash Flow per Debt Adjusted Share (“CFDAS”) is defined as EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) divided by the sum of the 1) the total debt plus the value of preferred stock minus cash and the amount of dividends paid for the year divided by the share price at the end of the year; and 2) the actual share count at year end.

| ● | The vesting of each PSU Award will be based 50% on TSR performance and 50% based on CFDAS Growth performance.

| ● | The recipient of the award must be employed with the Company at the time of vesting.

The number of shares ultimately issued under these awards can range from zero to 200% of target award amounts.

The PSUs are accounted for as equity awards. The fair value of the 50% for performance based on CFDAS Growth was determined as the market price of the common shares of the Company on the date of grant. Weighted average fair value of CFDAS PSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2020 was $3.41 per unit. The fair value of the 50% for performance based on TSR was determined on the grant date by the application of a Monte Carlo simulation model. Weighted average fair value of TSR PSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2020 was $4.10 per share.

The Monte Carlo simulation model calculated grant date fair value for awards issued during the period using the following assumptions:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | June 30, | ​ | December 31,
​ |  | 2021 | ​ | 2020
Expected life (in years) | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 0.33 - 3
Expected volatility | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 42.1% - 53.6%
Risk-free rate of return | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 0.10% - 0.17%
Weighted average grant-date fair value per PSU | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 4.10

​

The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the performance stock awards, to calculate the fair value of the awards. Expected volatilities in the model were estimated using a historical period consistent with the expected term for each annual performance period of the awards. The risk-free interest rate was based on the United States Treasury rate measured over a term commensurate with the expected term for each annual performance period of the awards. The expected term is based on the time between the valuation date and the end of each annual performance period of the awards. The valuation model assumes dividends are immediately reinvested.

The following table summarizes PSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Six months ended | ​ | Year ended

​

Stock compensation expense for the granted PSUs is recognized over the vesting period. Stock compensation expense recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 related to PSUs was $98,835 and $164,127, respectively (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, nil).

7. Revenue Recognition

Revenues are comprised primarily of sales of natural gas along with the revenue generated from the Company’s ownership interest in the gas gathering system in the Auburn field in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Also included is natural gas, crude oil and NGLs from Oklahoma.

Overall, product sales revenue generally is recorded in the month when contractual delivery obligations are satisfied, which occurs when control is transferred to the Company’s customers at delivery based on contractual terms and conditions. In addition, gathering and compression revenue generally is recorded in the month when contractual service obligations are satisfied, which occurs as control of those services is transferred to the Company’s customers.

​

Product Sales Revenue

The Company enters into contracts with third party purchasers to sell its natural gas, oil, NGLs and condensate production. Under these product sales arrangements, the sale of each unit of product represents a distinct performance obligation. Product sales revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the product transfers to the purchaser based on contractual terms which reflect prevailing commodity market prices. To the extent that marketing costs are incurred by the Company prior to the transfer of control of the product, those costs are included in lease operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Settlement statements for product sales, and the related cash consideration, are received from the purchaser within 30 days. As a result, the Company must estimate the amount of production delivered to the customer and the consideration that will ultimately be received for sale of the natural gas, oil, NGLs, or condensate. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within the receivables line item on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until payment is received.

Gas Gathering and Compression Revenue

The Company also provides natural gas gathering and compression services through its ownership interest in the gas gathering system in the Auburn field. For the provision of gas gathering and compression services, the Company collects its share of the gathering and compression fees per unit of gas serviced and recognizes gathering revenue over time using an output method based on units of gas gathered.

The settlement statement from the operator of the Auburn Gas Gathering System is received two months after transmission and compression has occurred. As a result, the Company must estimate the amount of production that was transmitted and compressed within the system. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within the receivables line item on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until payment is received.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts on a case-by-case basis once there is evidence that collection is not probable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no accounts for which collection was not probable.

Due to the bankruptcy file by Chesapeake Energy Corporation on June 28, 2020, the Company recorded an allowance for possible uncollectable fees. Unpaid fees attributable to CHK for May and June 2020 gathering system fees were $1.1 million and $1.3 million respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Epsilon recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts for the Company’s 35% share of these payment for a total bad debt expense of $0.8 million.

In December 2020, a global resolution between Williams and CHK was approved by the United States Bankruptcy court and CHK agreed to pay all pre-petition and past due receivables related to midstream expenses, per the existing contracts. We received our share of the pre-petition amounts and as such, reversed our $0.8 million allowance for doubtful accounts in December 2020.

​

The Company files federal income tax returns in the United States and Canada, and various returns in state and local jurisdictions.

The Company believes it has appropriate support for the income tax positions taken and to be taken on our tax returns and that the accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on our assessment of various factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter. The Company's tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020. To the extent we utilize net operating losses generated in earlier years, such earlier years may also be subject to audit.

Our effective tax rate will typically differ from the statutory federal rate primarily as a result of state income taxes and the valuation allowance against the Canadian net operating loss. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was higher than the statutory federal rate as a result of the state income taxes and the valuation allowance against the Canadian net operating loss.

Litigation

On March 10, 2021, Epsilon filed a complaint against Chesapeake Appalachia, LLC (“Chesapeake”) in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Scranton, Pennsylvania. Epsilon claims that Chesapeake has breached a settlement agreement and several operating agreements (“JOAs”) to which Epsilon and Chesapeake are parties. Epsilon asserts that Chesapeake has failed to cooperate with Epsilon’s efforts to develop resources in the Auburn Development, located in North-Central Pennsylvania, as required under both the settlement agreement and JOAs.

Epsilon has requested a preliminary injunction but was unsuccessful in obtaining that injunction. Epsilon filed a motion to amend its original complaint. Chesapeake opposed. The Court ruled in Epsilon’s favor and allowed Epsilon’s amendment. Chesapeake moved to dismiss the amended Complaint. Epsilon is opposing the motion to dismiss. The Court also entered an Order allowing for early dispositive motions that may end the litigation prior to discovery. Briefing will be complete late fall 2021.

10. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the assumed issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive securities.

The net income (loss) used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three months ended June 30, | ​ | Six months ended June 30,

12. Commodity Risk Management Activities

Commodity Price Risks

Epsilon engages in price risk management activities from time to time. These activities are intended to manage Epsilon’s exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for natural gas by securing fixed price contracts for a portion of expected sales volumes.

Inherent in the Company’s fixed price contracts, are certain business risks, including market risk and credit risk. Market risk is the risk that the price of natural gas and oil will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by the Company’s counterparty to a contract. The Company does not currently require collateral from any of its counterparties nor does its counterparties require collateral from the Company.

The Company enters into certain commodity derivative instruments to mitigate commodity price risk associated with a portion of its future natural gas production and related cash flows. The natural gas revenues and cash flows are affected by changes in commodity product prices, which are volatile and cannot be accurately predicted. The objective for holding these commodity derivatives is to protect the operating revenues and cash flows related to a portion of the future natural gas sales from the risk of significant declines in commodity prices, which helps ensure the Company’s ability to fund the capital budget.

Epsilon has historically elected not to designate any of its financial commodity derivative contracts as accounting hedges and, accordingly, accounts for these financial commodity derivative contracts using the mark-to-market accounting method. Under this accounting method, changes in the fair value of outstanding financial instruments are recognized as gains or losses in the period of change and are recorded as gain on derivative contracts on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The related cash flow impact is reflected in cash flows from operating activities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, Epsilon recognized losses on commodity derivative contracts of $1,827,334 and $1,361,993, respectively. This amount included cash paid on settlements of these contracts of $91,660 and $27,460, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Epsilon recognized gains (losses) on commodity derivative contracts of ($85,348) and $1,635,669, respectively. This amount included cash received on settlements of these contracts of $1,031,828 and $2,377,769, respectively.

14. Fair Value Measurements

The methodologies used to determine the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2021 were the same as those used at December 31, 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company’s revolving line of credit has a recorded value that approximates its fair value since its variable interest rate is tied to current market rates and the applicable margins represent market rates.

Commodity derivative instruments consist of two-way costless collar and basis swap contracts for natural gas. The Company’s derivative contracts are valued based on an income approach. The model considers various assumptions, such as quoted forward prices for commodities, time value and volatility factors. These assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the contract, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace, and are therefore designated as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The Company utilizes its counterparties’ valuations to assess the reasonableness of its own valuations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of trends and significant changes in or results of operations and the financial condition of Epsilon Energy Ltd. and its subsidiaries for the periods presented. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto presented in this report, including the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 and for the six months then ended together with accompanying notes, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs, and expected performance. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward- looking statements due to a number of factors. See “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

Epsilon Energy Ltd. (the “Company”) is a North American onshore focused independent natural gas and oil company engaged in the acquisition, development, gathering and production of natural gas and oil reserves. Our primary area of operation is Pennsylvania. Our assets are concentrated in areas with known hydrocarbon resources, which are conducive to multi-well, repeatable drilling programs.

Substantially all of the production from our Pennsylvania acreage (4,315 net) is dedicated to the Auburn Gas Gathering System, or the Auburn GGS, located in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania for a 15 year term expiring in 2026 under an operating agreement whereby the Auburn GGS owners receive a fixed percentage rate of return on the total capital invested in the construction of the system. Epsilon owns a 35% interest in the system which is operated by a subsidiary of Williams Partners, LP. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, Epsilon paid $0.39 million and $0.77 million, respectively to the Auburn GGS to gather and treat our 2.5 Bcf and 4.9 Bcf, of natural gas production in Pennsylvania ($0.47 million and $0.89 million, respectively to the Auburn GGS to gather and treat our 2.8 Bcf and 5.5 Bcf, of natural gas in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020).

Epsilon realized net income (loss) of ($0.49) million and $2.3 million, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to net loss of $0.57 million and $0.26 million, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Our common shares trade on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol “EPSN.”

Business Strategy

Our business strategy is to manage the cash flow generated from our producing leasehold and midstream assets in a manner where the risked capital allocation provides attractive rates of return. Our remaining inventory of drillable locations within existing leasehold is sufficient to maintain this cash flow for several years at capital expenditure levels well within the yearly cash flow generated from these assets. In addition, we seek to identify attractive onshore natural gas and oil properties in the United States, to acquire leasehold interests and to develop our leasehold interests with the goal of deploying capital to earn attractive rates of return.

The core Marcellus Shale is one of the most attractive dry gas resources in the United States and has attracted significant development capital. Well productivity has improved dramatically for many years due to improving techniques in drilling and completing wells, resulting in increasing initial production rates and gas recoveries. The resulting supply of natural gas at times stresses the transportation infrastructure of the Northeast US and exacerbates the local price discount to Henry Hub. In many other basins throughout the US, the increase in natural gas production had historically outpaced demand. Over the past couple of years, this over supply condition has become more balanced and demand growth from increased LNG exports and pipeline exports to Mexico have provided attractive markets improving the prices for natural gas.

The operating environment remains challenging in Northeast Pennsylvania. We implemented a number of initiatives to enhance the value of our core assets in the Marcellus including a comprehensive review of well spacing and completion productivity for both the Lower and Upper Marcellus, and we are working with our well operators to increase

operating efficiency. In addition, we continue to work closely with our gathering system partners in order to optimize the operating conditions, enhance operational safety, and to preserve and grow the long-term value of our gathering system assets.

The major producers in the Appalachian region are under pressure from capital markets to demonstrate capital discipline and control costs. Several major producers have announced capital programs to balance the supply-demand for the commodity. Accordingly, we expect local production during 2021 to be flat compared to 2020. We cannot, however, predict the beginning of and duration of a global recession and its impact on oil and gas demand and commodity prices. Our target is to maintain our current production level or grow modestly, but only if natural gas price levels are sufficient and the capital deployed can achieve our internal hurdle rate of return.

In the longer term, we believe natural gas prices will become more constructive due to moderating supply from both dry gas regions and associated gas from oil prone basins, and incremental demand from LNG exports, exports to Mexico and further coal to gas switching for domestic electrical power generation. Specifically, LNG export capacity is expected to grow from the current ~ 10.5 Bcf/d to 17 Bcf/d by 2024 based only on facilities currently commissioning or under construction.

In the Northwest STACK, the Company continues to evaluate current completion practices and well performance to determine when capital allocation is appropriate due to the increase in prices for oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas. The leases are held by production which provides a long-term right to develop these assets when prospective rates of return are attractive.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Epsilon’s realized natural gas price was $2.25 per Mcf, a 60% increase over the six months ended June 30, 2020.

● During the three months ended June 30, 2021, Epsilon’s natural gas production was 2.5 Bcf, as compared to 2.8 Bcf during the same period in 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Epsilon’s natural gas production was 4.9 Bcf, as compared to 5.5 Bcf during the same period in 2020.

● Marcellus working interest (WI) gas averaged 31.7 MMcf/d and 31.3 MMcf/d for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

● Gathered and delivered 15 Bcf gross (5.3 net to Epsilon’s interest) during the three months ended June 30, 2021 through the Auburn GG which represents approximately 75% of maximum throughput as currently configured. Gathering volumes decreased 4% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease is attributable to reduced Anchor Shipper volume due to natural well decline almost partially offset by increased crossflow volumes from an adjacent system.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures-Adjusted EBITDA

Epsilon defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before (1) net interest expense, (2) taxes, (3) depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense, (4) impairments of natural gas and oil properties, (5) non-cash stock compensation expense, (6) gain or loss on derivative contracts net of cash received or paid on settlement, and (7) other income. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance as determined under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.

Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Epsilon has included Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that EBITDA provides useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures. It further provides investors a helpful measure for comparing operating performance on a normalized or recurring basis with the performance of other companies, without giving effect to certain non-cash expenses and other items. This provides management, investors and analysts with comparative information for evaluating the Company in relation to other natural gas and oil companies providing corresponding non-U.S. GAAP financial measures or that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures for financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The table below sets forth a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, which is the most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed carefully.

We earn gathering system revenue as a 35% owner of the Auburn Gas Gathering system. This revenue consists of fees paid by Anchor Shippers (parties listed in Anchor Shipper Gas Gathering Agreement for Northern Pennsylvania, including Epsilon Midstream, LLC) and third-party customers of the system to transport gas from the wellhead to the compression facility, and then to the delivery meter at the Tennessee Gas Pipeline. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, approximately 81% of the Auburn GGS revenues earned were gathering fees, while 19% were compression fees. Gathering revenues from third-party customers represented approximately 6.2% of total gathering revenues and third-party compression revenues represented 2.8% of total compression revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, approximately 81% of the Auburn GGS revenues earned were gathering fees, while 19% were compression fees. Gathering revenues from third-party customers represented approximately 4.7% of total gathering revenues and third-party compression revenues represented 2.2% of total compression revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 approximately 87% of the Auburn GGS revenues earned were gathering fees, while 13% were compression fees. Gathering revenues from third-party customers represented approximately 6% of revenues and third-party compression revenues represented 2% of revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, approximately 87% of the Auburn GGS revenues earned were gathering fees, while 13% were compression fees. Gathering revenues from third-party customers represented approximately 0.7% of revenues and third-party compression revenues represented 0.3% of revenues. Revenues derived from Epsilon’s production which have been eliminated from gathering system revenues amounted to $0.39 million and $0.77 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively and $0.47 million and $0.89 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

Upstream natural gas revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $3.5 million, or 45%, over the same period in 2020. This was primarily a result of higher natural gas prices; however, this was partially offset by lower volumes being produced due to natural decline of the wells. Upstream natural gas revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $1.2 million, or 32%, over the same period in 2020. This was also primarily a result of higher natural gas prices partially offset by lower volumes being produced due to natural decline of the wells.

The Company’s share of gathering system revenue decreased by $0.4 million and $0.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, decreasing by 18% and 16%, respectively, over the same period in 2020. The Auburn GGS is subject to a cost of service model, whereby the Anchor Shippers dedicate acreage and reserves to the Auburn GGS. In exchange for this dedication, the owners of the Auburn system agree to a fixed rate of return on capital invested which

Table of Contents

cannot be exceeded. Therefore, rather than being subject to a fixed gathering rate, the Shippers are subject to a fluctuating gathering rate which is redetermined annually in order to produce the contractual return on capital to the Auburn GGS owners. The term of the model is fixed from 2012 to 2026. Each year, actual throughput, revenue, operating expenses and capital are captured in the model, and the remaining years are forecasted. The model then resolves a gathering rate that yields the contractual rate of return. All else being equal, to the extent that throughput is higher or capital is lower than the preceding year’s forecast, the gathering rate will decline.

Operating Costs

The following table presents total cost and cost per unit of production (Mcfe), including ad valorem, severance, and production taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Upstream operating costs—Total $/Mcfe | ​ | ​ | 0.69 | ​ | ​ | 0.69 | ​ | ​ | 0.67 | ​ | ​ | 0.72
Gathering system operating costs $ / Mcf | ​ | ​ | 0.10 | ​ | ​ | 0.03 | ​ | ​ | 0.10 | ​ | ​ | 0.03

​

Upstream operating costs consist of lease operating expenses necessary to extract natural gas and oil, including gathering and treating the natural gas and oil to ready it for sale.

Upstream operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.7 million, or 17.2%, over the same period in 2020. Upstream operating costs for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.25 million, or 12.3%, over the same period in 2020. The decrease in total cost was primarily due to a reduction in the annual assessment of the PA impact fee (an assessment of an annual fee by the State of PA to mitigate the impacts of the activities associated with unconventional gas wells on the communities in which the wells are located), a reduction in discretionary maintenance spending by the operator, and the decrease in volumes produced.

Gathering system operating costs consist primarily of rental payments for the natural gas fueled compression units. Other significant gathering system operating costs include chemicals (to prevent corrosion and to reduce water vapor in the gas stream), saltwater disposal, measurement equipment / calibration and general project management.

The gathering system total per unit operating costs reported include the effects of elimination entries to remove the gas gathering fees billed by the gas gathering system operator to Epsilon’s upstream operations, and the volume associated with those fees. The elimination entries amounted to $0.77 million and $0.89 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $0.39 million and $0.47 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (see Note 11, ‘‘Operating Segments,’’ of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Gathering system costs (net of intercompany elimination) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $0.19 million, or 105%, over the same period in 2020. Gathering system costs (net of intercompany elimination) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased $0.09 million, or 118%, over the same period in 2020.

The Company’s share of total gathering system costs increased $0.06 million, or 6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 over 2020. The Company’s share of total gathering system costs stayed constant for the three months ended June 30, 2021 over 2020. The decreased production from Epsilon resulting in a decrease in the elimination entry costs subtracted from the consolidated operating statements resulted in a larger increase in gathering system operating costs reported. These higher reported costs along with decreased throughput in the gathering system resulted in a higher cost per Mcf.

​

Natural gas and oil and gathering system assets are depleted and depreciated using the units of production method aggregating properties on a field basis. For leasehold acquisition costs and the cost to acquire proved and unproved properties, the reserve base used to calculate depreciation and depletion is total proved reserves. At this time, the Company has only minimal leasehold acquisition costs, and only in Oklahoma. For natural gas and oil development and gathering system costs, the reserve base used to calculate depletion and depreciation is proved developed reserves. A reserve report is prepared as of December 31, each year. The depletion for the first three quarters of the next year is normally based on the reserve report prepared at the end of the previous year, taking into consideration the limited development of the reserves over these time periods. The fourth quarter depletion is calculated using the reserve volumes from the reserve report prepared as of December 31 of the current year. However, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and the three months ended June 30, 2020, due to the historically low commodity prices, the December 31, 2019 reserves report volumes were updated based on relevant prices and the depletion and depreciation were calculated using the lower volumes that resulted from the economics of the properties.

Depreciation expense includes primarily amounts pertaining to our office furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements, and computer hardware. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 3 to 7 years. Also included in depreciation expense is an amount pertaining to buildings owned by the Company. Depreciation for the buildings is calculated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30 years.

Accretion expense is related to the asset retirement obligations.

DD&A expense decreased $1.7 million, or 33% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. DD&A expense decreased $0.93 million, or 36% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. This was mainly due to the increase in reserves reported and the decrease in production volumes. The lower volumes spread over the increased reserves resulted in lower DD&A. Also minimally affecting the decrease was the impairment of the Oklahoma assets.

Impairment | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,760,000

​

Epsilon performs a quantitative impairment test quarterly or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset group's carrying amount may not be recoverable, over proved properties using the published NYMEX forward prices, timing, methods and other assumptions consistent with historical periods. When indicators of impairment are present, GAAP requires that the Company first compares expected future undiscounted cash flows by asset group to their respective carrying values. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, a reduction of the carrying amount of the natural gas properties to their estimated fair values is required, which is determined based on discounted cash flow techniques using significant assumptions including projected revenues, future commodity prices, and a market-specific weighted average cost of capital which are affected by expectations about future market and economic conditions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recognized certain indicators of impairments specific to our Oklahoma assets and determined that carrying value of those assets was not recoverable based on the current indicators. As a result of this assessment, a $1.76 million impairment was recorded on the Company’s Oklahoma assets during the three months ended March 31, 2020. No impairment was required during the three months ended June 30, 2021 or June 30, 2020.

​

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, Epsilon entered into NYMEX Henry Hub Natural Gas Futures swap, Dominion basis swap, and two-way costless collar derivative contracts for the purpose of hedging its physical natural gas sales revenue. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 we paid net cash settlements of $91,660 and $27,460, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Epsilon received $1,031,828 and $2,377,769, respectively, on the settlement of contracts.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, unrealized losses on derivative contracts increased primarily due to the rally in NYMEX Henry Hub Natural Gas Futures resulting in an increased liability for the short call portion of the two-way costless collar position. These increases in unrealized losses were partially offset by unrealized gains on Dominion basis swap contracts. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had no derivative contracts beyond March 31, 2022.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Cash Flow

The primary source of cash for Epsilon during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was funds generated from operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the primary source of funds was from operations in addition to cash received on the settlement of derivative contracts. In addition to operations, the primary uses of cash for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were development of natural gas properties and the repurchase of shares of common stock.

At June 30, 2021, we had a working capital surplus of $16 million, an increase of $2.7 million over the $13.3 million surplus at December 31, 2020. The surplus increased from December 31, 2020 due mainly to the cash that is continually being generated by operations. The Company anticipates its current cash balance, cash flows from operations, and available sources of liquidity to be sufficient to meet its cash requirements.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 2020

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, $8 million was provided by the Company’s operating activities, compared to $8.3 million provided during the same period in 2020, a $0.3 million, and 3% decrease. The decrease was mainly due to decreased cash received on commodity contracts as a result of an increase in prices, which created a realized loss on the hedges as they matured. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, $2.4 million was provided by the Company’s operating activities, compared to $3.1 million provided during the same period in 2020, a $0.7 million, and 22% decrease. The decrease was mainly due to decreased cash received from derivative contracts as prices have increased as noted above.

The Company used $1.2 million and $1.7 million of cash for investing activities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. This was spent primarily on leasehold and development costs targeting increasing production in Pennsylvania. The Company used $1.8 million and $4.1 million of cash for investing activities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. This was spent primarily on leasehold and development costs targeting increasing production in Pennsylvania.

The $0.6 million and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and the $0.4 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, of cash used for financing activity was related to the repurchase of common shares of the Company.

Credit Agreement

In addition, the Company has a senior secured credit facility which includes a total commitment of up to $100 million. The current effective borrowing base is $14 million, which is subject to semi-annual redetermination. There are currently no borrowings under the facility. If Epsilon decided to access the facility, depending on the level of borrowing, the Company might need to increase its hedging activity. Borrowings from the Facility may be used for the acquisition and development of oil and gas properties, investments in cash flow generating assets complimentary to the production of oil and gas, and for letters of credit and other general corporate purposes. Upon each advance, interest is charged at the highest of a) rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin (3.25%-4.25% based on the percent of the line of credit utilized) with the minimum being 0.25%, b) the Prime Rate, or c) the sum of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%.

Effective April 6, 2021 the agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to March 1, 2024. In addition, the agreement was amended to include a Benchmark Replacement definition and transition plan to be used at such time when the LIBOR rate is discontinued.

On June 28, 2021 the borrowing base was decreased from $18 million to $14 million. This adjusted base will remain in effect until November 1, 2021, which is the date of the next periodic redetermination of the borrowing base.

The bank has a first priority security interest in the tangible and intangible assets of Epsilon Energy USA, Inc. to secure any outstanding amounts under the agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company must maintain the following covenants:

● Interest coverage ratio greater than 3 based on income adjusted for interest, taxes and non-cash amounts.

​

● Current ratio, adjusted for line of credit amounts used and available and non-cash amounts, greater than 1.

​

● Leverage ratio less than 3.0 based on income adjusted for interest, taxes and non-cash amounts.

Epsilon was in compliance with the financial covenants of the agreement as of June 30, 2021 and expect to be in compliance for the next 12 months. We expect to remain in compliance as we currently have no borrowings under the facility and funded all operations for 2020 and all operations through June 30, 2021 out of operating cash flow and cash on hand and expect to continue to do so through 2021.

Available borrowing capacity under the credit agreement decreased from $23 million to $18 million on April 6, 2021, and further decreased to $14 million on June 28, 2021.

Repurchase Transactions

Commencing on January 1, 2021, Epsilon has conducted a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) to repurchase our issued and outstanding common shares, when doing so has been accretive to management's estimates of intrinsic value per share. The NCIB continues through December 31, 2021. Since the commencement of the NCIB on January 1, 2021, Epsilon has strengthened its financial position and overhead costs. With sufficient cash flow from operations, it used discretionary cash to fund these repurchases. Since January 1, 2021, Epsilon has repurchased 264,215 common shares of the authorized 1,193,000 purchase amount. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company spent $1,061,468 under the NCIB.

Commencing on May 20, 2019, Epsilon conducted a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) to repurchase our issued and outstanding common shares. The NCIB ended on May 19, 2020. Epsilon was authorized to purchase 1,367,762 shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company spent $1,927,198 under the NCIB to purchase 657,314 common shares.

Derivative Transactions

The Company has entered into hedging arrangements to reduce the impact of natural gas price volatility on operations. By removing the price volatility from a significant portion of natural gas production, the potential effects of changing prices on operating cash flows have been mitigated, but not eliminated. While mitigating the negative effects of

falling commodity prices, these derivative contracts also limit the benefits we might otherwise receive from increases in commodity prices.

At June 30, 2021, Epsilon’s outstanding natural gas commodity swap contracts consisted of the following:

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes Epsilon’s contractual obligations at June 30, 2021:

​

​ | ​ | Payments Due by Period
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Less than | ​ | 1 – 3 | ​ | Greater than

Total future commitments | ​ | $ | 10,445,573 | ​ | $ | 1,801,392 | ​ | $ | 142,810 | ​ | $ | 8,501,371

________________________

| (1) | The liability balance shown represents the gross mark-to-market liability balance of derivative contracts before being offset by contracts in an asset position.

​

We enter into commitments for capital expenditures in advance of the expenditures being made. At a given point in time, it is estimated that we have committed to capital expenditures equal to approximately one quarter of our capital budget by means of giving the necessary authorizations to the asset operator to incur the expenditures in a future period. Current commitments have been included in the contractual obligations table above.

Based on current natural gas prices and anticipated levels of production, we believe that the estimated net cash generated from operations, together with cash on hand and amounts available under our credit agreement, will be adequate to meet liquidity needs for the next 12 months and beyond, including satisfying our financial obligations and funding our operating and development activities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

​

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our earnings and cash flow are significantly affected by changes in the market price of commodities. The prices of natural gas and oil can fluctuate widely and are influenced by numerous factors such as demand, production levels, world political and economic events, and the strength of the US dollar relative to other currencies. Should the price of natural gas and oil decline substantially, the value of our assets could fall dramatically, impacting our future operations and exploration and development activities, along with our gas gathering system revenues. In addition, our operations are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business, including interest rate and certain exposure as well as risks relating to changes in the general economic conditions in the United States.

35

Table of Contents

Gathering System Revenue Risk

The Auburn Gas Gathering System lies within the Marcellus Basin with historically high levels of recoverable reserves and low cost of production. We believe that a short-term low commodity price environment will not significantly impact the reserves produced and thus the revenue of our gas gathering system.

Interest Rate Risk

Market risk is estimated as the change in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 100 basis point change in the interest rate on the outstanding balance under our credit agreement. The credit agreement allows us to fix the interest rate for all or a portion of the principal balance for a period up to three months. To the extent that the interest rate is fixed, interest rate changes affect the instrument’s fair market value but do not affect results of operations or cash flows. Conversely, for the portion of the credit agreement that has a floating interest rate, interest rate changes will not affect the fair market value but will affect future results of operations and cash flows.

At June 30, 2021 and 2020, the outstanding principal balance under the credit agreement was nil.

Derivative Contracts

The Company’s financial results and condition depend on the prices received for natural gas production. Natural gas prices have fluctuated widely and are determined by economic and political factors. Supply and demand factors, including weather, general economic conditions, the ability to transport the gas to other regions, as well as conditions in other natural gas regions, impact prices. Epsilon has established a hedging strategy and may manage the risk associated with changes in commodity prices by entering into various derivative financial instrument agreements and physical contracts. Although these commodity price risk management activities could expose Epsilon to losses or gains, entering into these contracts helps to stabilize cash flows and support the Company’s capital spending program.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021 at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that

36

Table of Contents

of limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, the risk.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On March 10, 2021, Epsilon filed a complaint against Chesapeake Appalachia, LLC (“Chesapeake”) in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Scranton, Pennsylvania. Epsilon claims that Chesapeake has breached a settlement agreement and several operating agreements (“JOAs”) to which Epsilon and Chesapeake are parties. Epsilon asserts that Chesapeake has failed to cooperate with Epsilon’s efforts to develop resources in the Auburn Development, located in North-Central Pennsylvania, as required under both the settlement agreement and JOAs.

Epsilon requested a preliminary injunction but was unsuccessful in obtaining that injunction. Epsilon filed a motion to amend its original Complaint. Chesapeake opposed. The Court ruled in Epsilon’s favor and allowed Epsilon’s amendment. Chesapeake moved to dismiss the amended Complaint. Epsilon is opposing the motion to dismiss. The Court also entered an Order allowing for early dispositive motions that may end the litigation prior to discovery. Briefing will be complete late fall 2021.
