These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q by words such as “anticipate,” “project,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “believe,” “predict,” “budget,” “projection,” “goal,” “plan,” “forecast,” “target” or similar expressions.

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-Q that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to: our ability to execute our business strategies; the volatility of realized natural gas and oil prices; the level of production on our properties; estimates of quantities of natural gas, oil and NGL reserves and their values; general economic or industry conditions; public health crises or pandemics, and any related actions taken by businesses and governments; legislation or regulatory requirements; conditions of the securities markets; our ability to raise capital; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; financial or political instability; acts of war or terrorism; title defects in the properties in which we invest; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory or technical factors affecting our properties, operations or prices.

We caution you that the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, incident to the exploration for, and development, production and sale of, natural gas, oil, and NGLs. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risks described in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (“Annual Report”), and any quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed subsequently thereto, including any risks described in Item 1A of this Form 10-Q. Investors should also read the other information in this Form 10-Q and the Annual Report where risk factors are presented and further discussed.

Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described above or elsewhere in this Form 10-Q occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Except as required by applicable law, all forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: Basis of Presentation and Accounting Principles

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of PHX Minerals Inc. have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q as prescribed by the SEC. Management believes that all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for a full fiscal year.

Certain amounts and disclosures have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Therefore, these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Unless indicated otherwise or the context requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “PHX” or the “Company” refer to PHX Minerals Inc.

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB, or other standards-setting bodies, that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 2: Revenues

Revenues from contracts with customers

Natural gas, oil and NGL sales

Sales of natural gas, oil and NGL are recognized when production is sold to a purchaser and control of the product has been transferred. Oil is priced on the delivery date based upon prevailing prices published by purchasers with certain adjustments related to oil quality and physical location. The price the Company receives for natural gas and NGL is tied to a market index, with certain adjustments based on, among other factors, whether a well delivers to a gathering or transmission line, quality and heat content of natural gas, and prevailing supply and demand conditions, so that the price of natural gas fluctuates to remain competitive with other available natural gas supplies. These market indices are determined on a monthly basis. Each unit of commodity is considered a separate performance obligation; however, as consideration is variable, the Company utilizes the variable consideration allocation exception permitted under the standard to allocate the variable consideration to the specific units of commodity to which they relate.

Disaggregation of natural gas, oil and NGL revenues

The following table presents the disaggregation of the Company's natural gas, oil and NGL revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
	Royalty Interest		Working Interest		Total
Natural gas revenue	$	3,201,897	$	363,777	$	3,565,674
Oil revenue		2,518,321		313,875		2,832,196
NGL revenue		456,056		236,282		692,338
Natural gas, oil and NGL sales	$	6,176,274	$	913,934	$	7,090,208


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
	Royalty Interest		Working Interest		Total
Natural gas revenue	$	6,186,021	$	724,748	$	6,910,769
Oil revenue		3,432,950		679,838		4,112,788
NGL revenue		504,770		328,920		833,690
Natural gas, oil and NGL sales	$	10,123,741	$	1,733,506	$	11,857,247

Prior-period performance obligations and contract balances

The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. As a non-operator, the Company has limited visibility into the timing of when new wells start producing, and production statements may not be received for 30 to 90 days

(5)

or more after the date production is delivered. As a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of production delivered to the purchaser and the price that will be received for the sale of the product. The expected sales volumes and prices for these properties are estimated and recorded within the natural gas, oil and NGL sales receivables line item on the Company’s balance sheets. The difference between the Company's estimates and the actual amounts received for natural gas, oil and NGL sales is recorded in the quarter that payment is received from the third party. For the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, revenue recognized during the reporting period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods for existing wells was considered a change in estimate.

As noted above, as a non-operator, there are instances when the Company is limited by the information operators provide. Through cash received on new wells, in the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company identified several producing properties on its minerals that had production dates prior to the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Estimates of the natural gas and oil sales related to those properties were made and are reflected in the natural gas, oil and NGL sales on the Company’s Statements of Income and on the Company’s Balance Sheets in natural gas, oil and NGL sales receivables.

In connection with obtaining more relevant information on new wells on Company acreage during the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a change in estimate for new wells to natural gas, oil and NGL sales totaling $447,284 of which $23,159 related to the production periods before January 1, 2023 and $424,125 related to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023; and the Company recorded a change in estimate for new wells to natural gas, oil and NGL sales totaling $876,704 of which $64,900 related to the production periods before October 1, 2022 and $811,804 related to the three months ended December 31, 2022.

Lease bonus revenue

The Company generates lease bonus revenue by leasing its mineral interests to exploration and production companies. A lease agreement represents the Company’s contract with a third party and generally conveys the rights to any natural gas, oil or NGL discovered, grants the Company a right to a specified royalty interest and requires that drilling and completion operations commence within a specified time period. Control is transferred to the lessee and the Company has satisfied its performance obligation when the lease agreement is executed, such that revenue is recognized when the lease bonus payment is received. The Company accounts for its lease bonuses as conveyances in accordance with the guidance set forth in ASC 932 (Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas), and upon leasing, it recognizes the lease bonus as a cost recovery with any excess above its cost basis in the mineral interests being treated as a gain. The excess of lease bonus above the mineral interests basis is shown in the lease bonuses and rental income line item on the Company’s Statements of Income.

Natural gas and oil derivative contracts

See Note 9 for discussion of the Company’s accounting for derivative contracts.

NOTE 3: Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from the statutory rate primarily due to estimated federal and state benefits generated from excess federal and Oklahoma percentage depletion, which are permanent tax benefits, and the change in valuation allowance from prior year. Excess percentage depletion, both federal and Oklahoma, can only be taken in the amount that exceeds cost depletion, which is calculated on a unit-of-production basis. The Company completes an evaluation of the expected realization of the Company’s gross deferred tax assets each quarter. Excess tax benefits and deficiencies of stock-based compensation are recognized as provision (benefit) for income taxes in the Company’s Statements of Income.

Both excess federal percentage depletion, which is limited to certain production volumes and by certain income levels, and excess Oklahoma percentage depletion, which has no limitation on production volume, reduce estimated taxable income or add to estimated taxable loss projected for any year. The federal and Oklahoma excess percentage depletion estimates will be updated throughout the year until finalized with detailed well-by-well calculations at fiscal year-end. Depending upon whether a provision for income taxes or a benefit for income taxes is expected for a year, federal and Oklahoma excess percentage depletion will either decrease or increase the effective tax rate, respectively. The benefits of federal and Oklahoma excess percentage depletion and excess tax benefits and deficiencies of stock-based compensation are not directly related to the amount of pre-tax income (loss) recorded in a period. Accordingly, in periods where a recorded pre-tax income or loss is relatively small, the proportional effect of these items on the effective tax rate may be significant.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company completed an evaluation of the expected realization of its gross deferred tax assets. As a result of its evaluation, the Company concluded a valuation allowance is required for certain state deferred tax assets and for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the change in the Company’s valuation allowance from December 31, 2023 is an increase of $1,000

(6)

recorded in the income tax provision. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was a -30% provision as compared to a 24% provision for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The change in effective tax rate resulted from a decrease in net income and the discrete income tax expense for deferred directors' compensation benefit and changes in state tax rates recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

NOTE 4: Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share (“EPS”)

Basic earnings (loss) per share of Common Stock is calculated using net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of voting shares of Common Stock outstanding, including unissued, vested directors’ deferred compensation shares, during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of Common Stock is calculated using net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of voting shares of Common Stock outstanding, including unissued, vested directors’ deferred compensation shares and any other potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock, during the period. Participating securities had no effect on basic and diluted EPS at March 31, 2024.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company excluded restricted stock in the diluted EPS calculation that would have been antidilutive. The average shares outstanding of restricted stock excluded from the diluted EPS was 946,350 and 498,431 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components of basic and diluted EPS.

NOTE 5: Long-Term Debt

The Company has a $100,000,000 credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks led by Independent Bank pursuant to a credit agreement entered into in September 2021 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Facility had a borrowing base of $50,000,000 and a maturity date of September 1, 2025 as of March 31, 2024. On April 18, 2024, the borrowing base was reaffirmed at $50,000,000, in connection with the regularly scheduled semi-annual redetermination, and the maturity date was extended to September 1, 2028. The Credit Facility is secured by the Company’s personal property and at least 75% of the total value of the proved, developed and producing oil and gas properties. The interest rate is based on either (a) SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.750% to 3.750% per annum based on the Company’s Borrowing Base Utilization or (b) the greater of (1) the Prime Rate in effect for such day, or (2) the overnight cost of federal funds as announced by the U.S. Federal Reserve System in effect on such day plus one-half of one percent (0.50%), plus, in each case, an applicable margin ranging from 1.750% to 2.750% per annum based on the Company’s Borrowing Base Utilization. The election of Independent Bank prime or SOFR is at the Company’s discretion. The interest rate spread from Independent Bank prime or SOFR will be charged based on the ratio of the loan balance to the borrowing base. The interest rate spread from SOFR or the prime rate increases as a larger percent of the borrowing base is advanced. At March 31, 2024, the effective interest rate was 8.57%.

(7)

The Company’s debt is recorded at the carrying amount on its balance sheets. The carrying amount of the debt under the Credit Facility approximates fair value because the interest rates are reflective of market rates. Debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Facility are presented in “Other, net” on the Company’s balance sheets. Total debt issuance cost, net of amortization, as of March 31, 2024 was $137,380. The debt issuance cost is amortized over the life of the Credit Facility.

Determinations of the borrowing base under the Credit Facility are made semi-annually (usually June and December) or whenever the lending banks, in their sole discretion, believe that there has been a material change in the value of the Company’s natural gas and oil properties. The Credit Facility contains customary covenants which, among other things, require periodic financial and reserve reporting and place certain restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur debt, grant liens, make fundamental changes and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. The Credit Facility also restricts the Company’s ability to make certain restricted payments if before or after the Restricted Payment (i) the Available Commitment is less than ten percent (10%) of the Borrowing Base or (ii) the Leverage Ratio on a pro forma basis is greater than 2.50 to 1.00. In addition, the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios, a current ratio (as described in the Credit Facility) of no less than 1.0 to 1.0 and a funded debt to EBITDAX of no more than 3.5 to 1.0 based on the trailing twelve months. At March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Facility, had $30,750,000 in outstanding borrowings and had $19,250,000 available for borrowing under the Credit Facility. All capitalized terms in this description of the Credit Facility that are not otherwise defined in this Form 10-Q have the meaning assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

NOTE 6: Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors

Annually, non-employee directors may elect to be included in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors. This plan provides that each outside director may individually elect to be credited with future unissued shares of Company Common Stock rather than cash for all or a portion of their annual retainers and Board and committee meeting fees. These unissued shares are recorded to each director’s deferred compensation account at the closing market price of the shares on the payment dates of the annual retainers. Only upon a director’s retirement, termination or death or a change-in-control of the Company will the shares recorded for such director be issued under this plan. Directors may elect to receive shares, when issued, over annual time periods of up to ten years. The promise to issue such shares in the future is an unsecured obligation of the Company.

NOTE 7: Long Term Incentive Plan

Compensation expense for restricted stock awards is recognized in G&A. Forfeitures of awards are recognized at the time of forfeiture. The following table summarizes the Company’s pre-tax compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 related to the Company’s market-based and time-based restricted stock:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2024		2023
Market-based, restricted stock	$	480,676	$	523,410
Time-based, restricted stock		175,980		57,588
Total compensation expense	$	656,656	$	580,998

A summary of the Company’s unrecognized compensation cost for its unvested market-based and time-based restricted stock and the weighted-average periods over which the compensation cost is expected to be recognized is shown in the following table:


	As of March 31, 2024

(2) Number of gross wellbores associated with working interests sold.

(3) Excludes subsequent closing adjustments and insignificant divestitures.

Natural Gas, Oil and NGL Reserves

Management considers the estimation of the Company’s natural gas, oil and NGL reserves to be the most significant of its judgments and estimates. Changes in natural gas, oil and NGL reserve estimates affect the Company’s calculation of DD&A, provision for retirement of assets and assessment of the need for asset impairments. On an annual basis, with a semi-annual update, the Company’s Independent Consulting Petroleum Engineer, with assistance from Company staff, prepares estimates of natural gas, oil and NGL reserves based on available geologic and seismic data, reservoir pressure data, core analysis reports, well logs, analogous reservoir performance history, production data and other available sources of engineering, geologic and geophysical information. Between periods in which reserves would normally be calculated, the Company updates the reserve calculations utilizing appropriate prices for the current period. The estimated natural gas, oil and NGL reserves were computed using the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month natural gas, oil and NGL price for each month within the 12-month period prior to the balance sheet date, held flat over the life of the properties. However, projected future natural gas, oil and NGL pricing assumptions are used by management to prepare estimates of natural gas, oil and NGL reserves and future net cash flows used in asset impairment assessments and in formulating management’s overall operating decisions. Natural gas, oil and NGL prices are volatile, affected by worldwide production and consumption, and are outside the control of management.

Impairment

Company management monitors all long-lived assets, principally natural gas and oil properties, for potential impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may be greater than its estimated future net cash flows. The evaluations involve significant judgment since the results are based on estimated future events, such as inflation rates; future drilling and completion costs; future sales prices for natural gas, oil and NGL; future production costs; estimates of future natural gas, oil and NGL reserves to be recovered and the timing thereof; the economic and regulatory climates; and other factors. The need to test a property for impairment may result from significant declines in sales prices or unfavorable adjustments to natural gas, oil and NGL

(9)

reserves. Between periods in which reserves would normally be calculated, the Company updates the reserve calculations to reflect any material changes since the prior report was issued and then utilizes updated projected future price decks current with the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, management’s assessment resulted in no impairment provisions on producing properties. The Company wrote off $2,073 on wells assigned to the operator with zero consideration received during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

NOTE 9: Derivatives

The Company has entered into commodity price derivative agreements, including fixed swap contracts and costless collar contracts. These instruments are intended to reduce the Company’s exposure to short-term fluctuations in the price of natural gas and oil. Fixed swap contracts set a fixed price and provide payments to the Company if the index price is below the fixed price, or require payments by the Company if the index price is above the fixed price. Collar contracts set a fixed floor price and a fixed ceiling price and provide payments to the Company if the index price falls below the floor or require payments by the Company if the index price rises above the ceiling. These contracts cover only a portion of the Company’s natural gas and oil production and provide only partial price protection against declines in natural gas and oil prices. The Company’s derivative contracts are currently with BP Energy Company (“BP”). The derivative contracts with BP are secured under the Credit Facility with Independent Bank (see Note 5: Long-Term Debt). The derivative instruments have settled or will settle based on the prices below:

Total cash paid related to off-market derivatives was $560,162 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and is reflected in the Financing Activities section of the Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.

The fair value amounts recognized for the Company’s derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement may be offset. The Company has the choice of whether or not to offset, but that choice must be applied consistently. A master netting arrangement exists if the reporting entity has multiple contracts with a single counterparty that are subject to a contractual agreement that provides for the net settlement of all contracts through a single payment in a single currency in the event of default on or termination of any one contract. Offsetting the fair values recognized for the derivative contracts outstanding

(11)

with a single counterparty results in the net fair value of the transactions being reported as an asset or a liability in the Company’s balance sheets.

The following table summarizes and reconciles the Company’s derivative contracts’ fair values at a gross level back to net fair value presentation on the Company’s balance sheets at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company has offset all amounts subject to master netting agreements in the Company's balance sheets at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

(a) See Note 10: Fair Value Measurements for further disclosures regarding fair value of financial instruments.

The fair value of derivative assets and derivative liabilities is adjusted for credit risk. The impact of credit risk was immaterial for all periods presented.

NOTE 10: Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, i.e., an exit price. To estimate an exit price, a three-level hierarchy is used. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs, which refer broadly to assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability, into three levels. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the financial asset or liability.

The following table provides fair value measurement information for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2024:


	Fair Value Measurement at March 31, 2024
	Quoted Prices in Active Markets		Significant Other Observable Inputs		Significant Unobservable Inputs		Total Fair
	(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)		Value
Financial Assets (Liabilities):
Derivative Contracts - Swaps	$	-	$	723,379	$	-	$	723,379
Derivative Contracts - Collars	$	-	$	1,518,391	$	-	$	1,518,391

Level 2 – Market Approach - The fair values of the Company’s swaps and collars are based on a third-party pricing model, which utilizes inputs that are either readily available in the public market, such as natural gas curves and volatility curves, or can be corroborated from active markets. These values are based upon future prices, time to maturity and other factors. These values are then compared to the values given by our counterparties for reasonableness.

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term maturities of those instruments. Financial instruments include long-term debt, the valuation of which is classified as Level 2 as the carrying amount of the Company’s debt

(12)

under the Credit Facility approximates fair value because the interest rates are reflective of market rates. The estimated current market interest rates are based primarily on interest rates currently being offered on borrowings of similar amounts and terms. In addition, no valuation input adjustments were considered necessary relating to nonperformance risk for the debt agreements.

NOTE 11: Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company may be the subject of threatened or pending legal actions and contingencies in the normal course of conducting our business. The Company provides for costs related to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The effect of the outcome of these matters on the Company’s future results of operations and liquidity cannot be predicted because any such effect depends on future results of operations and the amount or timing of the resolution of such matters. For certain types of claims, the Company maintains insurance coverage for personal injury and property damage, product liability and other liability coverages in amounts and with deductibles that it believes are prudent, but there can be no assurance that these coverages will be applicable or adequate to cover adverse outcomes of claims or legal proceedings against the Company.

NOTE 12: Subsequent Events

Debt Redetermination and Extension of Maturity

Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement on April 18, 2024 pursuant to which, among other changes, (a) the maturity date was extended from September 1, 2025 to September 1, 2028 and (b) the borrowing base under the Credit Facility was reaffirmed at $50 million, which constitutes the periodic redetermination of the borrowing base for June 1, 2024 and is not deemed an unscheduled redetermination.

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

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

PHX is an owner and manager of perpetual natural gas and oil mineral interests in resource plays in the United States. Our principal business is maximizing the value of our existing mineral and royalty assets through active management and expanding our asset base through acquisitions of additional mineral and royalty interests.

We also currently own interests in leasehold acreage and non-operated working interests in natural gas and oil properties. Exploration and development of our natural gas and oil properties is conducted by third-party natural gas and oil exploration and production companies (primarily larger independent operating companies). We do not operate any of our natural gas and oil properties. While we previously were an active working interest participant in wells drilled on our mineral and leasehold acreage, our current business strategy is growth through mineral acquisitions in our core areas of focus in the SCOOP and Haynesville and development of our significant mineral acreage inventory. We have ceased taking working interest positions on our mineral and leasehold acreage and do not plan to take any working interest positions going forward.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our results of operations depend primarily upon our existing reserve quantities; costs associated with acquiring new reserves; production quantities and related production costs; and natural gas, oil and NGL prices. Although we still receive revenue from the production and sale of natural gas, oil and NGL on our working interests, the majority of our revenue is derived from royalties received from the production and sale of natural gas, oil and NGL.

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2023

Overview:

We recorded net loss of $183,615, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to net income of $9,553,244, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The change in net income was principally the result of decreased natural gas, oil and NGL sales, decreased gains associated with our derivative contracts and decreased gains on asset sales, partially offset by decreased income tax provision. These items are further discussed below.

Revenue:

Natural Gas, Oil and NGL Sales:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Natural gas, oil and NGL sales	$	7,090,208	$	11,857,247	(40%)

For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales was primarily due to decreases in natural gas and NGL prices of 41% and 15%, respectively, and decreases in natural gas, oil and NGL volumes of 13%, 31% and 3%, respectively. The following table outlines our production and average sales prices for natural gas, oil and NGL for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023:


	MCF		Average		Oil Bbls		Average		NGL Bbls		Average		MCFE		Average

Royalty interest production for the last five quarters was as follows:


Quarter ended	MCF Sold		Oil Bbls Sold		NGL Bbls Sold		MCFE Sold
3/31/2024		1,533,580		33,083		20,844		1,857,147

3/31/2023		1,700,974		45,395		20,063		2,093,722

Working interest production for the last five quarters was as follows:


Quarter ended	MCF Sold		Oil Bbls Sold		NGL Bbls Sold		MCFE Sold
3/31/2024		166,528		4,177		11,340		259,629
12/31/2023		185,276		4,221		14,653		298,521
9/30/2023		178,616		4,457		11,613		275,036
6/30/2023		181,139		5,410		13,413		294,077
3/31/2023		258,036		8,712		13,041		388,554

The production decrease in royalty volumes during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023, resulted from fewer new wells being brought online in the Haynesville Shale due to low gas prices. The production decrease in working interest volumes during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023, resulted from the divestitures of working interest properties.

Lease Bonuses and Rental Income:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Lease bonuses and rental income	$	151,718	$	313,150	(52%)

When we lease our mineral interests, we generally receive an upfront cash payment, or lease bonus. Lease bonuses and rental income decreased $161,432 in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023, primarily as the result of decreased leasing activity.

Gains (Losses) on Derivative Contracts:

We utilize commodity derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices. Gains (losses) on derivative contracts represent the (i) gain (loss) related to fair value adjustments on our open derivative contracts and (ii)

(15)

gains (losses) on settlements of derivative contracts for positions that have settled within the period. The net gain (loss) on derivative instruments for the periods indicated includes the following:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
						Percent
	2024			2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Cash received (paid) on derivative contracts:
Cash received (paid) on derivative contracts, net(1)	$	1,669,309		$	630,421	165%
Non-cash gain (loss) on derivative contracts:

Gains (losses) on derivative contracts, net	$	627,492		$	3,802,820	(83%)

	As of March 31,
	2024			2023
Fair value of derivative contracts
Net asset (net liability)	$	2,241,770		$	2,153,455	(4%)

(1) Excludes $373,745 of cash paid to settle off-market derivative contracts that are not reflected on the Condensed Statements of Income for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

The change in net (loss) gain on derivative contracts was due to the settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in March 31, 2024 pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.

Our natural gas and oil costless collar contracts and fixed price swaps in place at March 31, 2024 had expiration dates through March 2026. We utilize derivative contracts for the purpose of protecting our cash flow and return on investments.

Costs and Expenses:

Lease Operating Expenses (LOE):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Lease operating expenses	$	332,409	$	574,942	(42%)
Lease operating expenses per working interest MCFE	$	1.28	$	1.48	(13%)
Lease operating expenses per total MCFE	$	0.16	$	0.23	(30%)

We are responsible for a portion of LOE relating to a well as a working interest owner. LOE includes normal recurring and nonrecurring expenses associated with our working interests necessary to produce hydrocarbons from our natural gas and oil wells, including maintenance, repairs, salt water disposal, insurance and workover expenses. Total LOE related to field operating costs decreased $242,533, or 42%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in LOE was principally the result of the divestiture of working interest properties.

Transportation, Gathering and Marketing:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Transportation, gathering and marketing	$	843,504	$	1,128,756	(25%)
Transportation, gathering and marketing per MCFE	$	0.40	$	0.45	(11%)

Transportation, gathering and marketing costs decreased $285,252, or 25%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in production and the divestiture of assets with higher associated transportation, gathering and marketing rates and the increase in natural gas sales in fields with lower associated transportation, gathering and marketing rates. Natural gas sales bear the large majority of our transportation, gathering and marketing fees.

(16)

Production Taxes:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
							Percent
	2024			2023			Incr. or (Decr.)
Production taxes	$	392,327		$	552,258		(29%)
Production taxes as % of sales		5.5	%		4.7	%	17%

Production taxes are paid on produced natural gas and oil based on either a percentage of revenues from products sold at both fixed and variable rates or a fixed rate per unit produced established by federal, state or local taxing authorities. Production taxes decreased $159,931, or 29%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in amount was primarily the result of the decrease in sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (DD&A):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Depreciation, depletion and amortization	$	2,356,326	$	1,889,990	25%
Depreciation, depletion and amortization per MCFE	$	1.11	$	0.76	46%

DD&A is the amount of cost basis of natural gas and oil properties attributable to the volume of hydrocarbons extracted during such period, calculated on a units-of-production basis for working interest, and on a straight-line basis for producing and non-producing minerals. Estimates of proved developed producing reserves are a major component of the calculation of depletion. DD&A increased $466,336, or 25%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023, which resulted from a $744,119 increase due to a $0.35 increase in the DD&A rate per MCFE, partially offset by a decrease of $277,783 that resulted from production decreasing 15%.

Provision for Impairment:

During the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there was $0 and $2,073 impairment recognized, respectively.

Interest expense:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Interest expense	$	714,886	$	557,473	28%
Weighted average debt outstanding	$	32,513,736	$	28,225,556	15%

The increase in interest expense is due to a higher average interest rate and higher average debt balance in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Income Tax Expense:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
Provision for income taxes	$	42,332	$	3,067,000	(99%)

Income taxes decreased $3,024,668, from a $3,067,000 provision in the quarter ended March 31, 2023 to a $42,332 provision in the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The change in income taxes resulted from a decrease in net income and the discrete income tax expense for deferred directors' compensation benefit and changes in state tax rates recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

General and Administrative Costs (G&A):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
					Percent
	2024		2023		Incr. or (Decr.)
General and administrative	$	3,347,037	$	2,981,909	12%

G&A are costs not directly associated with the production of natural gas and oil and include the cost of employee salaries and related benefits, office expenses and fees for professional services. G&A for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased $365,128 as

(17)

compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The increase for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in restricted stock expense and professional fees.

Losses (Gains) on Asset Sales and Other:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
						Percent
	2024		2023			Incr. or (Decr.)
Losses (gains) on asset sales and other	$	24,212	$	(4,334,428	)	(101%)

The decrease in gain on asset sales and other, to a loss on asset sales and other, is primarily related to the gain recognized on divestitures during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, whereas there were no significant divestitures during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had positive working capital (current assets less current liabilities excluding current derivatives) of $4,475,046 at March 31, 2024, compared to positive working capital of $5,029,698 at December 31, 2023.

Liquidity:

Cash and cash equivalents were $1,625,749 as of March 31, 2024, compared to $806,254 at December 31, 2023, an increase of $819,495. Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are summarized as follows:


Net cash provided (used) by:	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024			2023			Change

Operating activities	$	5,246,651		$	8,933,477		$	(3,686,826	)
Investing activities		(1,347,188	)		(1,217,436	)		(129,752	)
Financing activities		(3,079,968	)		(8,670,233	)		5,590,265
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	819,495		$	(954,192	)	$	1,773,687

Operating activities:

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $3,686,826 during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily as the result of the following:

•

receipts on natural gas, oil and NGL sales (net of production taxes and gathering, transportation and marketing costs) and other decreasing by $5,767,876;

•

decreased lease bonus receipts of $222,050;

•

increased payments for G&A and other expense of $42,259; and

•

increased interest payments of $121,877;

partially offset by:

•

increased net receipts on derivative contracts of $852,471;

•

decreased field operating expenses of $145,883; and

•

decreased income tax payments of $1,468,882.

(18)

Investing activities:

Net cash used in investing activities increased $129,752 during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to lower acquisition costs of $8,830,367, lower net proceeds from the sale of assets of $9,143,505 and lower payments of $183,386 for capital expenditures on legacy working interest wells and furniture and fixtures.

Financing activities:

Net cash used in financing activities decreased $5,590,265 during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to net payments on long-term debt of $2,000,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to net payments of $7,300,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and decreased cash payments on off-market derivative contracts of $560,162, partially offset by an increase of $269,897 in dividend payments.

Capital Resources:

We had no capital expenditures to drill and complete new wells in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 as a result of our strategy to cease participating in new wells with a working interest after fiscal year 2019. We currently have no remaining commitments that would require significant capital to drill and complete wells.

Since we decided to cease any further participation with working interests on our mineral and leasehold acreage, we anticipate that capital expenditures for working interest properties will be minimal, as the expenditures will be limited to capital workovers to enhance existing wells.

(19)

Over the past five quarters, we made the following property acquisitions:


Quarter Ended	Net royalty acres (1)(2)	Cash Paid	Total Purchase Price (1)	Area of Interest
March 31, 2024
	146	$1.4 million	$1.4 million	SCOOP
December 31, 2023
	325	$4.3 million	$4.3 million	Haynesville / SCOOP
September 30, 2023
	974	$13.4 million	$13.4 million	Haynesville / SCOOP
June 30, 2023
	151	$1.8 million	$1.8 million	Haynesville / SCOOP
March 31, 2023
	912	$10.8 million	$10.8 million	Haynesville / SCOOP

(1) Excludes subsequent closing adjustments and insignificant acquisitions.

(2) An estimated net royalty equivalent was used for the minerals included in the net royalty acres.

We received lease bonus payments during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 totaling approximately $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Management plans to continue to actively pursue leasing opportunities.

With continued natural gas and oil price volatility, management continues to evaluate opportunities for product price protection through additional hedging of our future natural gas and oil production. See Note 9: Derivatives in the notes to our condensed financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for a complete list of our outstanding derivative contracts at March 31, 2024.

The use of our cash provided by operating activities and resultant change to cash is summarized in the table below:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2024
Cash provided by operating activities	$	5,246,651
Cash provided (used) by:

Capital expenditures - acquisitions		(1,406,248	)
Capital expenditures - legacy working interest wells and furniture and fixtures		(7,440	)
Quarterly dividends		(1,079,968	)
Net payments on credit facility		(2,000,000	)
Net proceeds from sale of assets		66,500
Net cash used		(4,427,156	)

Net increase in cash	$	819,495

Outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility at March 31, 2024 were $30,750,000.

Looking forward, we expect to fund overhead costs, mineral and royalty acquisitions and dividend payments from cash provided by operating activities, cash on hand, and borrowings under our Credit Facility. At March 31, 2024, we had availability of $19.3 million under our Credit Facility and were in compliance with all debt covenants (current ratio, debt to trailing 12-month EBITDAX, and restricted payments limited by leverage ratio). The debt covenants in our Credit Agreement limit the maximum ratio of our debt to EBITDAX to no more than 3.5:1.

Our $100,000,000 Credit Facility is with a group of banks led by Independent Bank pursuant to the Credit Agreement entered into in September 2021, as amended. The Credit Facility had a borrowing base of $50,000,000 as of March 31, 2024, and a maturity date of September 1, 2025, which was extended to September 1, 2028 pursuant to the Sixth Amendment. Interest on the Credit Facility will be calculated based on either (a) SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.750% to 3.750% per annum based on our Borrowing Base Utilization or (b) the greater of (1) the Prime Rate in effect for such day or (2) the overnight cost of federal funds as announced by the US Federal Reserve System in effect on such day plus one-half of one percent (0.50%), plus, in each case, an applicable margin ranging from 1.750% to 2.750% per annum based on our Borrowing Base Utilization. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, a 5% interest penalty may apply to any outstanding amount not paid when due or that remains outstanding while an event of default exists. The Credit Agreement contains financial and various other covenants that are common in such agreements, including a (a) maximum ratio of consolidated Funded Indebtedness to consolidated pro forma EBITDAX of 3.50 to 1.00, calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis, and (b) minimum ratio of consolidated Current Assets to consolidated Current Liabilities (excluding the Loan Balance) of 1.00 to 1.00. Other negative covenants include restrictions on our ability to incur debt, grant liens, make fundamental changes and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement also restricts our ability to make certain restricted payments if both before and after the Restricted Payment (i) the Available Commitment is less than or equal to ten percent (10%) of the Borrowing Base or (ii) the Leverage Ratio on a pro forma basis is greater than 2.50 to 1.00. All capitalized terms in this description of the Credit Facility that are not otherwise defined in this Form 10-Q have the meaning assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

Based on our expected capital expenditure levels, anticipated cash provided by operating activities for 2024, combined with availability under our Credit Facility and potential future sales of Common Stock under our currently effective shelf registration statement, we expect to have sufficient liquidity to fund our ongoing operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important in portraying our financial condition and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and other commitments as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Commodity Price Risk

Natural gas, oil and NGL prices historically have been volatile, and this volatility is expected to continue. Uncertainty continues to exist as to the direction of natural gas, oil and NGL price trends, and there remains a wide divergence in the opinions held in the industry. We can be significantly impacted by changes in natural gas and oil prices. The market price of natural gas, oil and NGL in 2024 will impact the amount of cash generated from operating activities, which will in turn impact the level of our capital expenditures for acquisitions and production. Excluding the impact of our 2024 derivative contracts, the price sensitivity for each $0.10 per MCF change in wellhead natural gas price is approximately $745,708 for operating revenue based on our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 natural gas volumes. The price sensitivity in 2024 for each $1.00 per barrel change in wellhead oil is approximately $182,916 for operating revenue based on our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 oil volumes.

Financial Market Risk

Operating income could also be impacted, to a lesser extent, by changes in the market interest rates related to our Credit Facility. Interest under our Credit Facility is calculated based on either (a) SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.750% to 3.750% per annum based on our Borrowing Base Utilization or (b) the greater of (1) the Prime Rate in effect for such day or (2) the overnight cost of federal funds as announced by the U.S. Federal Reserve System in effect on such day plus one-half of one percent (0.50%), plus, in each case, an applicable margin ranging from 1.750% to 2.750% per annum based on our Borrowing Base Utilization. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, a 5% interest penalty may apply to any outstanding amount not paid when due or that remains outstanding while an event of default exists. At March 31, 2024, we had $30,750,000 outstanding under the Credit Facility and the effective interest rate was 8.57%. The impact of a 1% increase in the interest rate on this amount of debt would have resulted in an increase in interest expense, and a corresponding decrease in our results of operations, of $76,875 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, assuming that our indebtedness remained constant throughout the period. At this point, we do not believe that our liquidity has been materially affected by the debt market uncertainties that have existed in recent years, and we do not believe that our liquidity will be significantly impacted in the near future. All capitalized terms in this description of the interest rate under the Credit Facility that are not otherwise defined in this Form 10-Q shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is collected and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that no matter how well conceived and operated, disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet, and management believes they do meet, reasonable assurance standards. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure material information relating to us is made known to management.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

(22)

There were 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 made during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We may be the subject of threatened or pending legal actions and contingencies in the normal course of conducting our business. We provide for costs related to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The effect of the outcome of these matters on our future results of operations and liquidity cannot be predicted because any such effect depends on future results of operations and the amount or timing of the resolution of such matters. For certain types of claims, we maintain insurance coverage for personal injury and property damage, product liability and other liability coverages in amounts and with deductibles that we believe are prudent, but there can be no assurance that these coverages will be applicable or adequate to cover adverse outcomes of claims or legal proceedings against us. We are not a party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, operating results or cash flow.

ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS

We are subject to certain risks and hazards due to the nature of our business activities. For a discussion of these risks, please refer to Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 as well as the factors discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. There have been no material changes to the risk factors contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.

ITEM 2 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In May 2014, the Board adopted stock repurchase resolutions (the “Repurchase Program”) to allow management, at its discretion, to purchase our Common Stock as treasury shares. Effective in May 2018, the Board approved an amendment to the Repurchase Program, which continues to allow us to repurchase up to $1.5 million of our Common Stock at management’s discretion. Our Board added language to clarify that the Repurchase Program is intended to be an evergreen program as the repurchase of an additional $1.5 million of our Common Stock is authorized and approved whenever the previous $1.5 million is utilized. The Repurchase Program, as amended, does not otherwise place a cap on the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Program. We made no repurchases of Common Stock under the Repurchase Program during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Restrictions upon the payment of dividends

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants which, among other things, require periodic financial and reserve reporting and place certain limits on payment of dividends.

ITEM 5 OTHER INFORMATION

Our proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2024, contained a typographical error in the second paragraph of the section entitled “Stockholder Proposals” solely related to the date by which a stockholder must provide notice to the Company with respect to a nominee for director or proposal of other business in order for such nomination or other proposed business to be properly brought before the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders under our Bylaws. The reference to the date January 5, 2024 should have instead referenced January 5, 2025. The full corrected paragraph is set forth below:

Under the Company’s Bylaws, for a stockholder to nominate a candidate for director, or propose other business to be considered by stockholders, timely notice of the nomination or the other proposed business must be received by the Company in advance of the annual meeting. Such notice must be received not less than 90 nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the mailing of notice for the preceding year’s annual meeting. Therefore, to be timely under our Bylaws for the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, such notice must be received at our principal executive office no earlier than December 6, 2024 and no later than January 5, 2025 and otherwise in accordance with our Bylaws. The stockholder filing the notice of nomination must describe various matters regarding the nominee, including, but not limited to, such information as name, address, occupation, business background and shares held, and the nominee must deliver a written questionnaire and agreement to the Company covering certain matters as specified

(23)

in the Bylaws. For a stockholder to bring other business before a stockholders’ meeting, timely notice must be received by the Company within the time limits described above. Such notice must include a description of the proposed business, the reasons therefore, and other specified matters. These requirements are separate from the requirements a stockholder must meet to have a proposal included in the Company’s proxy statement under Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.
