IndependentAuditor’s Report


To the Members

Lubbock Energy Partners, LLC

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Lubbock Energy Partners, LLC, which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related statements of operations, changes in members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lubbock Energy Partners, LLC as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notesto Financial Statements

1.Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization– Lubbock Energy Partners, LLC (the “Company”) was formed as a Texas Limited Liability Company on January 17, 2017. The Company’s principal business activities are focused on the acquisition and development of oil and gas properties in the United States. Our fiscal year-end is December 31.

Basisof Presentation – The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Useof Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.

Significant estimates include (i) oil and gas reserves that are used in the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of the carrying value of oil and gas properties; (ii) production and commodity price estimates used to record oil and gas sales receivables; and (iii) the cost of future asset retirement obligations. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainties, including the future prices of oil and gas, these estimates could change in the near term and such changes could be material.

In early March 2020, the NYMEX WTI crude oil price decreased significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic and although it has recovered to pre-COVID-19 levels, it remained low for most of 2020. Lower oil and gas prices not only decrease our revenues, but an extended decline in oil or gas prices may materially and adversely affect our future business, financial position, cash flows, results of operations, liquidity, ability to finance planned capital expenditures and the oil and gas reserves that we can economically produce.

Cash– The Company maintains its deposits of cash primarily in financial institutions, which may at times exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company has not experienced any losses related to amounts in excess of FDIC limits.

Receivables– Accounts receivable consists primarily of accrued oil and gas production receivables and joint interest receivables from outside working interest owners. Generally, our oil and gas sales receivables are collected within one month. Management routinely assesses accounts receivable balances to determine their collectability and accrues an allowance for uncollectible receivables, when, based on the judgment of management, it is probable that a receivable will not be collected. Receivables are not collateralized. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019, the Company had not provided an allowance for doubtful accounts on its accounts receivable.

Oiland Gas Properties – The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized and accumulated in a country-wide cost center. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to development and exploration activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Proceeds received from property disposals are credited against accumulated cost except when the sale represents a significant disposal of reserves, in which case a gain or loss is recognized. The sum of net capitalized costs and estimated future development and dismantlement costs for each cost center are subject to depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) using the equivalent unit-of-production method, based on total proved oil and gas reserves. Excluded from amounts subject to DD&A are costs associated with unevaluated properties. The Company had no unevaluated properties as of or during the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019.

| F-6 |

| --- |

Under the full cost method, net capitalized costs are limited to the lower of unamortized cost, or the cost center ceiling (the “Ceiling Test”). The cost center ceiling is defined as the sum of (i) estimated future net revenue, discounted at 10% per annum, from proved reserves, based on average prices per barrel of oil and per Mcf of natural gas at the first day of each month in the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting period; and costs, adjusted for contract provisions and financial derivatives qualifying as accounting hedges and asset retirement obligations, (ii) the cost of unevaluated properties not being amortized, and (iii) the lower of cost or market value of unproved properties included in the cost being amortized, reduced by (iv) the income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the oil and gas properties, if any. If the net book value reduced by the related net deferred income tax liability (if any) exceeds the cost center ceiling limitation, a non-cash impairment charge is required in the period in which the impairment occurs. Since all of the Company’s oil and gas properties are located within the United States, the Company only has one cost center for which a quarterly Ceiling Test is performed.

Acquisitions– We account for acquisitions as business combinations if the acquired assets meet the definition of a business. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar assets, the acquisition is not considered a business and is accounted for as an asset acquisition. This determination of whether the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a group of similar assets is based on whether the risks associated with managing and creating outputs from the assets are similar.

AssetRetirement Obligations – The Company recognizes a liability for the plugging, abandonment and remediation of its properties at the end of their productive lives. We compute the liability for asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) by calculating the present value of estimated future cash flows related to each property. This requires use of significant assumptions, including current estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, annual inflation of these costs, the productive lives of wells, and our credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate (all Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy). Changes in any of these assumptions can result in significant revisions to the estimated asset retirement obligations.

Initially, the fair value of the ARO is recognized in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is depleted over the life of the related asset and subject to the Ceiling Test. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recognized liability, an adjustment to the full-cost pool is recognized. The Company had no assets that are restricted for the purpose of settling AROs.

| F-7 |

| --- |

RevenueRecognition – Our revenues are primarily derived from the sales of oil and gas production and are primarily of oil. The Company’s oil and gas production is typically sold at delivery points to third-party purchasers under contract terms that are common in the oil and gas industry. These contracts typically provide for an agreed-upon index price, net of pricing differentials. The purchaser takes custody and possession, title and risk of loss of the oil at the delivery point; therefore, control passes at the delivery point. The Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser. We receive payment from the sale of oil and gas production between one to three months after delivery. For property interests where we are not the operator, we record our share of the revenues and expenses based upon the information provided by the operators.

The Company reports revenue as the gross amount received before production taxes and transportation costs. Production taxes and transportation costs are reported separately in the accompanying statements of operations.

FairValue Measurement – Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three levels related to fair value measurements are as follows:

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in<br> active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices<br> included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar<br> assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market<br> data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that<br> are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes<br> certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The estimated fair value of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate the carrying amount due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

We evaluate the fair value on a non-recurring basis of properties acquired in business combinations, asset acquisitions and the related asset retirement obligations. The fair value of the oil and gas properties is determined based upon estimated future discounted cash flow, a Level 3 input, using estimated production which we reasonably expect, and estimated prices adjusted for differentials. Unobservable inputs include estimated future oil and gas production, prices, operating and development costs, and a discount rate of 10%, all Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

IncomeTaxes – The Company is taxed as a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently, federal income taxes are not payable, or provided for, by the Company. Members are taxed individually on their proportionate share of our earnings.

The state of Texas margin tax applies to legal entities conducting business in Texas. The tax is calculated by applying a tax rate to a base that considers both revenues and expenses and, therefore, has the characteristics of an income tax.

| F-8 |

| --- |

Uncertain tax positions are recognized in the financial statements only if that position is reasonably determined to be more-likely-than-not of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no uncertain tax positions.

2.Oil and Gas Properties


We own oil and gas properties within the Permian and Eagle Ford Basins in Texas presently operated on our behalf by entities owned by our Members. Our interests in these properties varies by project.

2019Asset Acquisitions – Effective January 1, 2019, we completed the acquisition of interests in properties in Cochran County, Texas for cash totaling $1.1 million. We recognized associated asset retirement obligations of $889 thousand for this acquisition.

In a separate transaction in March 2019, we reacquired an interest in an oil and gas property that we had sold in 2017 to a third-party. In this transaction, we surrendered preferred stock in this third-party company issued to us in the initial sales transaction, assumed certain of the third-party’s unpaid obligations, mutually released claims against one another and accepted a note receivable from the third-party totaling $1.1 million. This note receivable was due March 1, 2020, bore interest at 5% per annum, required no payments until maturity and was secured by the third-party’s interest in another oil and gas property located in Karnes County, Texas that we also had an ownership interest in. The preferred stock we surrendered in this transaction had been previously distributed to our Members. These Members recontributed the preferred stock to us prior to closing this transaction.

The transaction is summarized below (in thousands):

Oil and gas property interest $ 2,517
Note receivable 1,100
Surrender of preferred stock in third-party<br> company (124 )
Assumption of certain of the third-party’s<br> unpaid obligations:
Accounts payable (452 )
Debentures (421 )
Asset<br> retirement obligations (2,620 )
Total $ -

Subsequent to the closing of this transaction, the Company paid the accounts payable and debentures obligations assumed at closing. The acquired property interest was subsequently disposed in June 2019.

2019Disposition – In June 2019, we sold our oil and gas property interests in Cochran County, Texas including the interest acquired in the transaction discussed above. We received cash proceeds of $3.8 million and an additional interest in an existing property located in Karnes County, Texas. We recognized the acquired property interest at $210 thousand representing its estimated fair value at the date of acquisition as determined based on an independently prepared reserve report. A gain of $3.9 million was recognized for this sale of oil and gas properties in the statement of operations.

2020Asset Acquisitions – During 2020, we made acquisitions of two property interests for cash totaling $4.7 million. We recognized associated asset retirement obligations of $2.1 million for these acquisitions. The acquisitions consisted of interests in properties located in Karnes and Cochran Counties, Texas.

| F-9 |

| --- |

Separately in 2020, we acquired an additional property interest located in Karnes County, Texas by foreclosure of the $1.1 million note receivable from a third-party issued to us in 2019.

CeilingTest Impairments – We recognized impairments totaling $2.4 million in 2020 and $2.5 million in 2019 for the excess of the net capitalized cost of our oil and gas properties above the cost center ceiling limitations.

3.Asset Retirement Obligations

The following table summarizes the changes in ARO (in thousands):

Balance at January 1, 2019 $ 896
ARO assumed in acquisitions 3,511

4.Commitments and Contingencies


Litigation***–*** From time to time, the Company may be subject to litigation or other claims in the normal course of business.

Environmental Matters – Due to the nature of the oil and gas industry, we are exposed to environmental risks. We have various policies and procedures to minimize and mitigate the risks from environmental contamination. We are not aware of any material environmental claims existing as of December 31, 2020; however, there can be no assurance that current regulatory requirements will not change or that unknown potential past non-compliance with environmental laws or other environmental liabilities will not be discovered on our properties.

5. Related Party Transactions


Our oil and gas properties within the Eagle Ford Basin are operated on our behalf by Caldera Operating Company LLC (“Caldera”), an entity controlled by a Member. Our oil and gas properties within the Permian Basin are operated on our behalf by Extex Operating Company (“Extex”), an entity controlled by another Member. All revenues, lease operating expenses, and production taxes and transportation costs are processed by Caldera or Extex and settled monthly.

We pay Caldera and Extex administrative fees as operators of our properties. In 2020, Caldera was paid administrative fees totaling $93 thousand and Extex was paid $89 thousand. In 2019, Caldera was paid administrative fees totaling $64 thousand and Extex was paid $68 thousand.

At December 31, 2020 and 2019, payable to related parties includes $22 thousand and $34 thousand, respectively, for reimbursement of expenses related to our oil and gas properties.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date and through October 21, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

On October 4, 2021, we entered into Purchase and Sale Agreement with U.S. Energy Corp. (“U.S. Energy”) for the sale of all of our oil and gas properties. The transaction will also include certain wells, contracts, technical data, records, personal property and hydrocarbons associated with the assets being sold.

The initial base purchase price for the assets is $125,000 in cash and 6,568,828 shares of U.S. Energy’s common stock subject to customary working capital and other adjustments as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approval by U.S. Energy’s shareholders, the performance by the parties of their obligations and covenants under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the delivery of certain documentation by the parties and the absence of any injunction or other legal prohibitions preventing consummation of the transaction.

SupplementalOil and Gas Information

(Unaudited)

Oiland Gas Reserve Information

Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of crude oil and natural gas which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations. Estimated proved developed oil and gas reserves can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. The Company reports all estimated proved reserves held under production-sharing arrangements utilizing the “economic interest” method.

Proved oil and gas reserves have been estimated by independent, third-party petroleum engineers, Onpoint Resources, LLC. These reserve estimates have been prepared in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and accounting standards based on the unweighted average prices per barrel of oil and per Mcf of natural gas at the first day of each month in the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting period.

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and projecting future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. The reserve data in the following tables only represent estimates and should not be construed as being exact.

The following reserves schedule sets forth the changes in estimated quantities of proved crude oil reserves**:**

Crude<br> Oil (Bbls) Gas<br> (mcf) Total<br> (Boe)
Total proved reserves:
Balance at December 31, 2018 440,649 1,149,617 632,252
Revisions of previous estimates 30,319 67,945 41,643
Divestiture of reserves (169,459 ) (29,731 ) (174,414 )
Purchases of minerals in-place 167,328 120,941 187,485
Production (39,980 ) (54,502 ) (49,064 )
Balance at December 31, 2019 428,857 1,254,270 637,902
Revisions of previous estimates (285,151 ) (1,027,090 ) (456,333 )
Purchases of minerals in-place 1,653,051 943,499 1,810,301
Production (37,629 ) (54,405 ) (46,697 )
Balance at December 31, 2020 1,759,128 1,116,274 1,945,174
Proved developed reserves as of:
December 31, 2018 217,624 191,489 249,539
December 31, 2019 176,976 175,454 206,218
December 31, 2020 1,011,363 604,863 1,112,174
Proved undeveloped reserves as of:
December 31, 2018 223,025 958,128 382,713
December 31, 2019 251,881 1,078,816 431,684
December 31, 2020 747,765 511,411 833,000
| F-12 |

| --- |

Our proved reserve quantities at December 31, 2019 were about the same as at December 31, 2018. The impact of 2019 production, revisions of previous estimates caused by declines in the average prices per barrel of oil and per Mcf of natural gas and divestitures were offset by acquisitions we completed. We made acquisitions of reserves in Cochran and Karnes Counties, Texas and disposed of other properties within Cochran County, Texas.

The increase in proved quantities for the year ended December 31, 2020 was due principally to acquisitions made in Karnes and Cochran Counties, Texas which added 1.8 million barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”).

Notesto Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

1.Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization– Lubbock Energy Partners, LLC (the “Company”) was formed as a Texas Limited Liability Company on January 17, 2017. The Company’s principal business activities are focused on the acquisition and development of oil and gas properties in the United States. Our fiscal year-end is December 31.

Basisof Presentation – These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the financial position as of, and the results of operations for, all periods presented. In preparing the accompanying financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the condensed financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

Useof Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.

Significant estimates include (i) oil and gas reserves that are used in the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of the carrying value of oil and gas properties; (ii) production and commodity price estimates used to record oil and gas sales receivables; and (iii) the cost of future asset retirement obligations. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainties, including the future prices of oil and gas, these estimates could change in the near term and such changes could be material.

2.Oil and Gas Properties

2020Acquisitions – In May 2020, we acquired a property interest located in Cochran County, Texas for cash totaling $5 thousand. We recognized associated asset retirement obligations of $1.1 million for this acquisition.

Separately in June 2020, we acquired an additional interest in an existing property located in Karnes County, Texas by foreclosure of the $1.1 million note receivable from a third-party issued to us in 2019.

CeilingTest Impairments – We recognized an impairment of $2.4 million in 2020 for the excess of the net book value of our oil and gas properties above the cost center ceiling limitation.

4.Commitments and Contingencies


Litigation***–*** From time to time, the Company may be subject to litigation or other claims in the normal course of business.

5.Related Party Transactions


Our oil and gas properties within the Eagle Ford Basin are operated on our behalf by Caldera Operating Company LLC (“Caldera”), an entity controlled by a Member. Our oil and gas properties within the Permian Basin are operated on our behalf by Extex Operating Company (“Extex”), an entity controlled by another Member. All revenues, lease operating expenses, and production taxes and transportation costs are processed by Caldera or Extex and settled monthly.

We pay Caldera and Extex administrative fees as operators of our properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Caldera was paid administrative fees totaling $133 thousand and Extex was paid $86 thousand. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Caldera was paid administrative fees totaling $62 thousand and Extex was paid $61 thousand.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, payable to related parties includes $233 thousand and $22 thousand, respectively, for reimbursement of expenses for our oil and gas properties.

6. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date and through March 1, 2022, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

On October 4, 2021, we entered into Purchase and Sale Agreement with U.S. Energy Corp. (“U.S. Energy”) for the sale of all of our oil and gas properties. The transaction also included certain wells, contracts, technical data, records, personal property and hydrocarbons associated with the assets being sold. This transaction was completed on January 5, 2022 for a total purchase price of $125,000 in cash and 6,568,828 shares of U.S. Energy’s common stock.

Management’sResponsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’sResponsibility


Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

NOTESTO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FORTHE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS, PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS

Banner Oil & Gas, LLC (“Banner”) was formed as a limited liability company in the state of Oklahoma on December 13, 2010. Its major operations consist of the exploration for and acquisition, production, and sale of crude oil and natural gas with an area of concentration in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Mississippi. Banner will continue perpetually until terminated pursuant to statute or any provision of the limited liability company agreement. No member shall be liable for the expenses, liabilities or obligations of Banner.

On November 23, 2020, Banner’s board of managers approved a plan of division whereby Banner Holdings, LLC (“Banner Holdings”) was formed and became the sole member of Banner. All existing capital interests and incentive units of Banner were exchanged for an equal amount of capital interests and incentive units in Banner Holdings. Banner Holdings assumed all obligations regarding the prior revolving credit facility. Additionally, oil and gas assets of two companies under common control were merged with Banner effective October 1, 2020 (K3 AssetCo, LLC and 2W AssetCo, LLC). (See Notes 3 and 4).

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Banner and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Pennant Oil & Gas, LLC, Banner Oilfield Services, LLC, BOG-Osage, LLC, K3 AssetCo, LLC and 2W AssetCo, LLC (collectively referred to as the “Company” or “Banner”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Useof Estimates - In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), management makes estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known. Significant estimates, which are subject to change in the near term, affecting these financial statements include estimates for quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves and future cash flows, which is used to compute depreciation, depletion and amortization and impairment of oil and natural gas properties, period end oil and natural gas sales and accruals, and asset retirement obligations.

Cashand Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market funds to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts and money market funds which may not be fully federally insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on such accounts.

AccountsReceivable - The Company’s accounts receivable are primarily from companies in the oil and natural gas industry located in the southwestern part of the United States. Credit for oil and natural gas sales is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable from working interest owners also does not require collateral, although the Company generally has the right to apply their portion of oil and natural gas sales to their accounts receivable balance. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company believes collection is doubtful. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due.

| F-7 |

| --- |

The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, amounts which may be obtained by an offset against production proceeds due the customer and the condition of the general economy as a whole. The Company writes off specific accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, management considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is required.

OilInventory - At December 31, 2020 and 2019, inventory consisted of crude oil produced and stored in tanks prior to delivery to the purchaser in the amount of approximately $178,000 and $223,000, respectively. Inventory is presented on the balance sheet at the lower of cost to produce or market.

Oiland Natural Gas Properties - The full cost method of accounting is used to account for oil and natural gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all costs incident to the acquisition, exploration, and development of properties (both developed and undeveloped), including costs of abandoned leaseholds, delay lease rentals, unproductive wells, and well drilling and equipment costs, are capitalized. The Company capitalizes internal costs that can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration and development activities, but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Capitalized costs include geological and geophysical work, seismic, delay rentals, drilling and completing and equipping oil and natural gas wells, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities.

Capitalized costs as well as future development costs on proved undeveloped properties are amortized using the units-of-production method, based on estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and production, which are converted to a common unit of measure based upon their relative energy content. The computation of depreciation, depletion and amortization takes into consideration restoration, dismantlement and abandonment costs and the anticipated proceeds from salvaging equipment. Due to uncertainties inherent in this estimation process, it is at least reasonably possible that reserve quantities will be revised significantly in the near term. If the Company’s unamortized costs exceed the cost center ceiling (defined as the sum of the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved reserves plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties), the excess is charged to expense in the year in which the excess occurs. Generally, no gains or losses are recognized on the sale or disposition of oil and natural gas properties unless such dispositions involve a significant alteration in the depletion rate. Management’s evaluation concluded that there was no impairment for the year ended December 31, 2019, but due to the decline in oil prices during 2020, there was an impairment required for the year ended December 31, 2020 of approximately $9,111,000.

OtherProperty and Equipment - Other property and equipment is recorded at cost. Upon retirement or disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated balance sheet with the resulting gain or loss, if any, reflected in the consolidated statement of operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, typically from 3 to 10 years. Depreciation expense related to other property and equipment was approximately $56,000 and $60,000 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

| F-8 |

| --- |

RevenueRecognition - Oil and natural gas revenues are recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, delivery has occurred, title has transferred and collectability of the revenue is probable. Delivery occurs and title is transferred when production has been delivered to a pipeline or picked up by the purchaser. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities on oil and natural gas revenues are presented separately from such revenues as production taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. Well supervision fees and overhead reimbursements associated with producing properties are recognized as expense reimbursements when the services are performed.

IncomeTaxes - The Company is a limited liability company and therefore substantially all taxes are passed through to the individual members. There is no provision for income taxes provided for in these financial statements. The Company’s 2016 through 2019 federal income tax and state income tax returns remain open to examination by various tax jurisdictions which include Oklahoma. Additionally, the Company’s state margin tax returns for 2016 through 2019 remain open to examination for the state of Texas.

Management has evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of authoritative guidance.

Concentrationsof Credit Risk and Major Customers - The Company extends credit to purchasers of oil and natural gas, which are primarily large energy companies. The Company had three purchasers during the year ended December 31, 2020 whose individual purchases exceeded 10% of oil and natural gas sales and collectively accounted for approximately 63% of total oil and natural gas sales. The Company had three purchasers during the year ended December 31, 2019 whose individual purchases exceeded 10% of oil and natural gas sales and collectively accounted for approximately 70% of total oil and natural gas sales.

The Company had five purchasers whose outstanding balance was approximately 67% of accounts receivable from oil and natural gas sales at December 31, 2020, and three purchasers whose outstanding balance was approximately 88% of accounts receivable from oil and natural gas sales at December 31, 2019.

GasBalancing - In certain instances, the owners of the natural gas produced from a well will select different purchasers for their respective ownership interest in the wells. If one purchaser takes more than its ratable portion of the natural gas, the owners selling to that purchaser will be required to satisfy the imbalance in the future by cash payments or by allowing the other owners to sell more than their share of production. To the extent future reserves exist to enable the other owners to sell more than their ratable share of natural gas, no liability is recorded for the Company’s obligation for natural gas taken by its purchasers which exceeds the Company’s ownership interest of the well’s total production. The Company has no significant imbalances at December 31, 2020 or 2019.

DebtIssuance Costs - The Company amortizes loan origination fees for financing agreements over the life of the loan using the straight-line method, which does not differ significantly from the effective interest method. Amortization expense totaled approximately $16,000 and $255,000 in 2020 and 2019, respectively.

| F-9 |

| --- |

Accounting standards require debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standards allow companies to report debt issuance costs related to line of credit agreements as unamortized costs on the balance sheet. The Company reports debt issuance costs related to its revolving credit facility as unamortized debt issuance costs on the consolidated balance sheets.

DerivativeInstruments and Hedge Transactions - The Company recognizes derivatives as either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is designated as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through income or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in income. The ineffective portion of a hedge’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in income. The Company has not designated its derivative financial instruments for hedge accounting, and as such, changes in fair value are reported in earnings as a component of risk management income (expense) (See Note 6).

FairValue of Financial Instruments - The carrying value of items comprising current assets and current liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value as a result of the long-term debt having a variable interest rate, or the current rates offered to the Company for long-term debt are substantially the same. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value.

Accountingfor Asset Retirement Obligations - The Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate to estimated future plugging and abandonment costs on its oil and natural gas properties and related facilities disposal. These obligations to abandon and restore properties are based upon estimated future costs which may change based upon future inflation rates and changes in statutory remediation rules or changes in future cost estimates.

At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has cash held in escrow with a fair market value of $160,000 that is legally restricted for potential plugging and abandonment liability in the Wildhorse Unit located in Osage County, Oklahoma. The cash held related to this escrow account is included in deposits on the consolidated balance sheets.

The activities incurred in the asset retirement obligations are as follows for the years ended December 31:

2020 2019
Balance at beginning of year $ 2,761,519 $ 2,581,305
Liabilities incurred in current year 1,761,821 -
Revisions (340,497 ) -
Liabilities settled in current year (240,062 ) (8,059 )
Accretion expense 212,943 188,273

Recentaccounting pronouncements – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842).” The purpose of the guidance is to increase the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet as well as providing additional disclosure requirements related to leasing arrangements. On April 8, 2020, the FASB voted to defer the effective date for ASU 2016-02 for private companies. As such the new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2021, though early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact adopting this recent accounting pronouncement will have on the Company’s financial statements in future reporting periods.

Revolving Credit Facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

In November 2012, the Company entered into a four-year $100,000,000 credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, which provided for a revolving line of credit with an initial borrowing base of $45,000,000. The borrowing base has been reduced each year following to $23,250,000 beginning January 2017 and $20,250,000 in early 2018. The maximum amount available is subject to semi-annual redeterminations of the borrowing base in April and October of each year until maturity, based on the value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves in accordance with the lenders’ customary procedures and practices. Both the Company and the lenders have the right to request one additional redetermination each year. Generally, the facility bears interest at the lesser of: (a) LIBOR or (b) the reference rate as defined, with each subject to a margin based on the borrowing base utilization.

| F-11 |

| --- |

The borrowing facility is secured by substantially all of the proved oil and natural gas assets and all personal property of the Company and its subsidiaries and by guarantees of each of the Company’s subsidiaries.

The debt agreement has certain financial covenants which provide for, among other things, maintaining a certain financial ratio and monthly and weekly reporting requirements, limits on extending payments on accounts to vendors, and minimum liquidity requirements, as defined.

The debt agreement contains customary provisions for events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the administrative agent may, or at the request of the lenders shall, accelerate amounts due under the debt agreements, except for an insolvency event of default, in which case such amounts will automatically become due and payable.

The Company was unable to reach agreement with the bank regarding extension of the borrowing facility. As of December 31, 2019, the borrowing facility was in default. The outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility of $18,892,165 was classified as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019.

Effective May 15, 2020, Sage Road, the Company’s majority member, purchased all of the outstanding indebtedness and accrued and unpaid interest associated with the revolving credit facility from Wells Fargo, et al. The Company remained liable for the outstanding debt and the associated accrued and unpaid interest, payable to Sage Road. Effective November 24, 2020 the Company’s parent, Banner Holdings, assumed the outstanding indebtedness and accrued and unpaid interest associated with the revolving credit facility in return for capital interests in Banner as more fully discussed in Note 4.

Revolving Credit Facility with Firstbank Southwest

In November 2020, the Company entered into a four year credit agreement with Firstbank Southwest as administrative agent, which provides for a revolving line of credit with an initial borrowing base of $5,000,000. The maximum amount available is subject to semi-annual redeterminations of the borrowing base in April and October of each year until maturity, based on the value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves in accordance with the lenders’ customary procedures and practices. Both the Company and the lenders have the right to request one additional redetermination each year.

Interest on the outstanding amounts under the credit facility will accrue at an interest rate equal to either (i) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus an applicable margin (as defined in the credit agreement) that ranges between 1.00% to 2.00% depending on utilization or (ii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus an applicable margin that ranges between 4.00% to 5.00% depending on utilization. In the case that an event of default (as defined under the credit agreement) occurs, the outstanding amounts will bear an additional 2.00% interest plus the applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate and corresponding applicable margin.

| F-12 |

| --- |

As of December 31, 2020, outstanding borrowings were accruing interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the applicable margin which resulted in an interest rate of 4.75%.

A commitment fee of 0.500%, accrues on the average daily amount of the unused portion of the borrowing base and is included as a component of interest expense. The Company generally has the right to make prepayments of the borrowings at any time without penalty or premium. Letter of credit fees will accrue at 0.125% plus the Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to borrowings that are based on Adjusted LIBO Rate.

Small Business Administration Loans

In May 2020 Banner applied for and received an unsecured forgivable loan guaranteed by the federal government as part of the Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program in the amount of $300,900 bearing interest at 1%. Principal and interest of this loan can be fully forgiven based on the Company incurring qualifying expenses during the defined covered period as well as meeting other criteria related to employee retention. The Company applied for forgiveness of this loan in November 2020 but has not yet received the forgiveness letter. The Company has not made any principal or interest payments as management expects the full amount to be forgiven.

In June 2020, the Company applied for and received a loan from the federal government as part of the SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan in the amount of $149,900 bearing interest of 3.75% per annum. Repayment of this loan begins in June 2021 with 348 monthly payments of $731 of principal and interest with a final payment due in June 2050 for all remaining unpaid principal and interest. This loan is secured generally by all assets of the Company.

4. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

Fourth Amended Operating Agreement

Effective January 17, 2019, the Company adopted the Fourth Amended Operating Agreement. This operating agreement, among other things, updated sharing ratios and further defined management incentive units as follows:

a) Series A Preferred Sharing Ratio:
i. Sage<br> Road: 64.47%
ii. Wells<br> Fargo Energy Capital (“WFEC”) 35.53%
b) Management Incentive Units (by type):
i. Pennant<br> MIU: 5,000 units outstanding
ii. 2019<br> MIU: 87,000 units outstanding
c) Generally, distribution was allocated as<br> follows:
i. Members<br> of Non-Management Group and holders of MIUs at determined sharing ratios based on distribution thresholds;
ii. Members<br> holding Series A Preferred Interests in accordance to their Series A Preferred Sharing Ratio;
iii. Preference<br> Threshold Group, (Sage Road 97.22% and Pennant Energy, LLC 2.78%)
iv. Preference<br> Threshold Group and Pennant MIU at determined sharing ratios based on return on investment.

In October, 2019, Sage Road purchased the Series A Preferred Interests from WFEC.

| F-13 |

| --- |

Management incentive units were administered under two separate plans by the Company’s Board of Managers. The first plan, the Management Incentive Units Plan includes units awarded to members of Pennant (“Pennant MIU Plan”) and the second plan, the 2018 Management Incentive Pool Plan (“2018 MIU Plan”) were each authorized to issue 100,000 units. The Pennant MIU Plan calls for units to vest at 20% on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of the grant with any unvested units fully vesting on the date of a Vesting Event, as defined. The 2018 MIU Plan calls for units to vest at 25% on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of the grant with any unvested units fully vesting on the date of a Vesting Event, as defined. Additionally, all management incentive units lack voting rights and are subject to transfer restrictions unless waived by the board of managers. Both plans and their corresponding units were cancelled in 2020 as discussed below.

As of December 31, 2019, the Series A Preferred Interests had accumulated $1,434,150 in preferred returns.

Fifth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement

Effective November 24, 2020, the Company adopted the Fifth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement. This operating agreement amends and restates the previous agreement in its entirety. This agreement, among other things, confirmed the Plan of Division approved by the Company’s board of managers on November 23, 2020, whereby Banner Holdings was formed becoming Banner’s parent company. All existing capital interests and incentive units of Banner were exchanged by Banner’s existing members for an equal amount of capital interests and incentive units in Banner Holdings. Banner Holdings received 100% of Banner’s capital interests in exchange for assuming all of Banner’s obligations regarding the revolving credit facility formerly held by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and subsequently purchased by Sage Road. As a result, Banner eliminated the note payable of $18,892,165, and the related paid in kind interest payable of $1,580,162 and recorded a capital contribution of $20,472,327.

The new operating agreement cancelled all previously issued management incentive units (“MIU’s”), converted all previous Series A Preferred Interests and Capital Interests into new Capital Interests, admitted new members through receipt of capital contributions, and issued new MIU’s under the 2020 Incentive Pool Plan (“2020 MIU Plan”).

The 2020 MIU Plan allows a maximum of 100,000 authorized units to be issued, and calls for units to vest at 25% on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of the grant with any unvested units fully vesting on the date of a vesting event, as defined. Additionally, all management incentive units lack voting rights and are subject to transfer restrictions unless waived by the board of managers. A total of 75,000 shares were issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020.

Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control

Effective October 1, 2020, capital contributions were received primarily in the form of oil and gas assets from two commonly controlled companies, K3 Oil, LLC (“K3”) and 2W Energy Partners, LLC (“2W”) and were recorded as an exchange between entities under common control. Both companies created subsidiaries to contain the assets contributed, K3 AssetCo, LLC and 2W AssetCo, LLC. The subsidiaries were contributed to Banner in exchange for Banner capital interests. Sage Road owned approximately, 97%, 92% and 94% of Banner Holdings, K3 and 2W, respectively prior to the transactions. In accordance with accounting guidance, Banner recorded the assets and liabilities contributed by K3 and 2W at historical cost with operations recorded prospectively from the effective contribution date.

6. DERIVATIVE TRANSACTIONS

The results of operations and operating cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for oil and natural gas. To mitigate a portion of this exposure, the Company has entered into certain derivative instruments, none of which were elected to be designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s derivative instruments were comprised of fixed price swaps and/or collars.

In fixed-price swap instruments, the Company receives a fixed-price for the hedged commodity and pays a floating market price to the counterparty. The fixed-price payment and the floating-price payment are netted, resulting in a net amount due to or from the counterparty.

Collars contain a fixed floor price (put) and ceiling price (call). If the market price exceeds the call strike price or falls below the put strike price, the Company receives the fixed price and pays the market price. If the market price is between the call and the put strike price, no payments are due from either party.

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had the following hedging transactions with one counterparty consisting of both fixed price swaps and collars.

Volume Fixed<br> price per Bbl
Period and<br> type of contract Bbls Swaps Purchase<br> puts Sold<br> calls

These instruments are recorded at fair value and changes in fair value, including settlements, have been reported as risk management income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. Settlements on these instruments occur every month. The following table provides a summary of the components (cash and non-cash) of risk management income (expense) for the years ended December 31:

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
--- ---

FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (as amended) (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, outlines a fair value hierarchy based on inputs used to measure fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, use of unobservable prices or inputs are used to estimate the current fair value, often using an internal valuation model. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the item being valued.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels—defined by ASC 820 and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities—are as follows:

Level I—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

| F-17 |

| --- |

Level II—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.

Level III—Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The fair value of derivative contracts is measured using Level II inputs and is determined by either market prices on an active market for similar assets or by prices quoted by a broker or other market-corroborated prices, including analysis of formal pricing curves on national exchanges. The Company also utilizes credit information about counterparties, as well as a credit rating factor derived from yields on the debt of peers in the industry, in order to adjust derivative valuations for credit risk. Additions to asset retirement obligations are measured using primarily Level III inputs. The significant unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, inflation rate and well life. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs. See Note 2 for a roll forward of the asset retirement obligation.

The estimated fair values of assets and liabilities included in the consolidated balance sheets are summarized below as of December 31:

Fair<br> Value Fair<br> Value
2020 2019

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
--- ---

Due to the nature of the oil and natural gas business, the Company is exposed to possible environmental risks. The Company has implemented various policies and procedures to avoid environmental contamination and risks from environmental contamination. The Company conducts periodic reviews to identify changes in our environmental risk profile. These reviews evaluate whether there is a contingent liability, its amount, and the likelihood that the liability will be incurred. The amount of any potential liability is determined by considering, among other matters, incremental direct costs of any likely remediation. The Company manages its exposure to environmental liabilities on properties to be acquired by identifying existing problems and assessing the potential liability. Depending on the extent of an identified environmental problem, the Company may exclude a property from the acquisition, require the seller to remediate the property, or agree to assume liability for the remediation of the property. The Company has historically not experienced any significant environmental liability and is not aware of any potential material environmental issues or claims at December 31, 2020.

| F-18 |

| --- |

The Company is periodically subject to lawsuits, investigations and disputes, including matters relating to commercial transactions, environmental and health and safety matters. A liability is recognized for any contingency that is possible of occurrence and reasonably estimable. The Company continually assesses the likelihood of adverse judgements of outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. None of these actions are expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company. The Company will continue to monitor the impact that litigation could have on the Company and will assess the impact of future events on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. As of December 31, 2020, the Company does not have any litigation liabilities that require an accrual.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has evaluated events through April 30, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. There were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure.

BANNEROIL & GAS, LLC

NOTESTO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS, PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS


Banner Oil & Gas, LLC (“Banner”) was formed as a limited liability company in the state of Oklahoma on December 13, 2010. Its major operations consist of the exploration for and acquisition, production, and sale of crude oil and natural gas with an area of concentration in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Mississippi. Banner will continue perpetually until terminated pursuant to statute or any provision of the limited liability company agreement. No member shall be liable for the expenses, liabilities or obligations of Banner.

On November 23, 2020, Banner’s board of managers approved a plan of division whereby Banner Holdings, LLC (“Banner Holdings”) was formed and became the sole member of Banner. All existing capital interests and incentive units of Banner were exchanged for an equal amount of capital interests and incentive units in Banner Holdings. Banner Holdings assumed all obligations regarding the prior revolving credit facility. Additionally, oil and gas assets of two companies under common control were merged with Banner effective October 1, 2020 (K3 AssetCo, LLC and 2W AssetCo, LLC). (See Notes 3 and 4).

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Banner and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Pennant Oil & Gas, LLC, Banner Oilfield Services, LLC, BOG-Osage, LLC, K3 AssetCo, LLC and 2W AssetCo, LLC (collectively referred to as the “Company” or “Banner”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Useof Estimates - In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), management makes estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known. Significant estimates, which are subject to change in the near term, affecting these financial statements include estimates for quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves and future cash flows, which is used to compute depreciation, depletion and amortization and impairment of oil and natural gas properties, period end oil and natural gas sales and accruals, and asset retirement obligations.

Cashand Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market funds to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts and money market funds which may not be fully federally insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on such accounts.

AccountsReceivable - The Company’s accounts receivables are primarily from companies in the oil and natural gas industry located in the southwestern part of the United States. Credit for oil and natural gas sales is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable from working interest owners also does not require collateral, although the Company generally has the right to apply their portion of oil and natural gas sales to their accounts receivable balance. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company believes collection is doubtful. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due.

| 6 |

| --- |

The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, amounts which may be obtained by an offset against production proceeds due the customer and the condition of the general economy as a whole. The Company writes off specific accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, management considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is required.

OilInventory - At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 inventory consisted of crude oil produced and stored in tanks prior to delivery to the purchaser in the amount of approximately $337,000 and $178,000, respectively. Inventory is presented on the balance sheet at the lower of cost to produce or market.

Oiland Natural Gas Properties - The full cost method of accounting is used to account for oil and natural gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all costs incident to the acquisition, exploration, and development of properties (both developed and undeveloped), including costs of abandoned leaseholds, delay lease rentals, unproductive wells, and well drilling and equipment costs, are capitalized. The Company capitalizes internal costs that can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration and development activities, but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Capitalized costs include geological and geophysical work, seismic, delay rentals, drilling and completing and equipping oil and natural gas wells, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities.

Capitalized costs as well as future development costs on proved undeveloped properties are amortized using the units-of-production method, based on estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and production, which are converted to a common unit of measure based upon their relative energy content. The computation of depreciation, depletion and amortization takes into consideration restoration, dismantlement and abandonment costs and the anticipated proceeds from salvaging equipment. Due to uncertainties inherent in this estimation process, it is at least reasonably possible that reserve quantities will be revised significantly in the near term. If the Company’s unamortized costs exceed the cost center ceiling (defined as the sum of the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved reserves plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties), the excess is charged to expense in the year in which the excess occurs. Generally, no gains or losses are recognized on the sale or disposition of oil and natural gas properties unless such dispositions involve a significant alteration in the depletion rate. Management’s evaluation concluded that there was no impairment for the year ended December 31, 2019, but due to the decline in oil prices during 2020, there was an impairment required for the year ended December 31, 2020 of approximately $9,111,000. There was no impairment for the period ended September 30, 2021.

OtherProperty and Equipment - Other property and equipment is recorded at cost. Upon retirement or disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated balance sheet with the resulting gain or loss, if any, reflected in the consolidated statement of operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, typically from 3 to 10 years. Depreciation expense related to other property and equipment was approximately $34,000 and $42,000 for the periods ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

RevenueRecognition - Oil and natural gas revenues are recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, delivery has occurred, title has transferred and collectability of the revenue is probable. Delivery occurs and title is transferred when production has been delivered to a pipeline or picked up by the purchaser. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities on oil and natural gas revenues are presented separately from such revenues as production taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. Well supervision fees and overhead reimbursements associated with producing properties are recognized as expense reimbursements when the services are performed.

| 7 |

| --- |

IncomeTaxes - The Company is a limited liability company and therefore substantially all taxes are passed through to the individual members. There is no provision for income taxes provided for in these financial statements. The Company’s 2017 through 2020 federal income tax and state income tax returns remain open to examination by various tax jurisdictions which include Oklahoma. Additionally, the Company’s state margin tax returns for 2017 through 2020 remain open to examination for the state of Texas.

Management has evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of authoritative guidance.

Concentrationsof Credit Risk and Major Customers - The Company extends credit to purchasers of oil and natural gas, which are primarily large energy companies. The Company had four purchasers during the period ended September 30, 2021 whose individual purchases exceeded 10% of oil and natural gas sales and collectively accounted for approximately 60% of total oil and natural gas sales. The Company had three purchasers during the year ended December 31, 2020 whose individual purchases exceeded 10% of oil and natural gas sales and collectively accounted for approximately 63% of total oil and natural gas sales.

The Company had six purchasers whose outstanding balance was approximately 71% of accounts receivable from oil and natural gas sales at September 30, 2021, and five purchasers whose outstanding balance was approximately 67% of accounts receivable from oil and natural gas sales at December 31, 2020.

GasBalancing - In certain instances, the owners of the natural gas produced from a well will select different purchasers for their respective ownership interest in the wells. If one purchaser takes more than its ratable portion of the natural gas, the owners selling to that purchaser will be required to satisfy the imbalance in the future by cash payments or by allowing the other owners to sell more than their share of production. To the extent future reserves exist to enable the other owners to sell more than their ratable share of natural gas, no liability is recorded for the Company’s obligation for natural gas taken by its purchasers which exceeds the Company’s ownership interest of the well’s total production. The Company has no significant imbalances at September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020.

DebtIssuance Costs - The Company amortizes loan origination fees for financing agreements over the life of the loan using the straight-line method, which does not differ significantly from the effective interest method. Amortization expense totaled approximately $22,000 and $0 for September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

Accounting standards require debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standards allow companies to report debt issuance costs related to line of credit agreements as unamortized costs on the balance sheet. The Company reports debt issuance costs related to its revolving credit facility as unamortized debt issuance costs on the consolidated balance sheets.

DerivativeInstruments and Hedge Transactions - The Company recognizes derivatives as either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is designated as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through income or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in income. The ineffective portion of a hedge’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in income. The Company has not designated its derivative financial instruments for hedge accounting, and as such, changes in fair value are reported in earnings as a component of risk management income (expense) (See Note 6).

| 8 |

| --- |

FairValue of Financial Instruments - The carrying value of items comprising current assets and current liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value as a result of the long-term debt having a variable interest rate, or the current rates offered to the Company for long-term debt are substantially the same. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value.

Accountingfor Asset Retirement Obligations - The Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate to estimated future plugging and abandonment costs on its oil and natural gas properties and related facilities disposal. These obligations to abandon and restore properties are based upon estimated future costs which may change based upon future inflation rates and changes in statutory remediation

rules or changes in future cost estimates.

At September 30, 2021, the Company has cash held in escrow with a fair market value of $160,000 that is legally restricted for potential plugging and abandonment liability in the Wildhorse Unit located in Osage County, Oklahoma. The cash held related to this escrow account is included in deposits on the consolidated balance sheets.

The activities incurred in the asset retirement obligations are as follows for the periods ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Nine Months Ended Twelve Months Ended
September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Balance at beginning of year $ 4,155,724 $ 2,761,519
Liabilities incurred in current year 1,761,821
Revisions (340,497 )
Liabilities settled current year (240,062 )
Accretion expense 185,467 212,943
Balance at end of year $ 4,341,191 $ 4,155,724

Recentaccounting pronouncements – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842).” The purpose of the guidance is to increase the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet as well as providing additional disclosure requirements related to leasing arrangements. On April 8, 2020, the FASB voted to defer the effective date for ASU 2016-02 for private companies. As such the new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2021, though early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact adopting this recent accounting pronouncement will have on the Company’s financial statements in future reporting periods.

Revolving Credit Facility with Firstbank Southwest

In November 2020, the Company entered into a four-year credit agreement with Firstbank Southwest as administrative agent, which provides for a revolving line of credit with an initial borrowing base of $5,000,000. The maximum amount available is subject to semi-annual redeterminations of the borrowing base in April and October of each year until maturity, based on the value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves in accordance with the lenders’ customary procedures and practices. Both the Company and the lenders have the right to request one additional redetermination each year.

Interest on the outstanding amounts under the credit facility will accrue at an interest rate equal to either (i) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus an applicable margin (as defined in the credit agreement) that ranges between 1.00% to 2.00% depending on utilization or (ii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus an applicable margin that ranges between 4.00% to 5.00% depending on utilization. In the case that an event of default (as defined under the credit agreement) occurs, the outstanding amounts will bear an additional 2.00% interest plus the applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate and corresponding applicable margin.

| 10 |

| --- |

As of December 31, 2020, outstanding borrowings were accruing interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the applicable margin which resulted in an interest rate of 4.75%. A commitment fee of 0.500%, accrues on the average daily amount of the unused portion of the borrowing base and is included as a component of interest expense. The Company generally has the right to make prepayments of the borrowings at any time without penalty or premium. Letter of credit fees will accrue at 0.125% plus the Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to borrowings that are based on Adjusted LIBO Rate.

Small Business Administration Loans

In May 2020 Banner applied for and received an unsecured forgivable loan guaranteed by the federal government as part of the Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program in the amount of $300,900 bearing interest at 1%. Principal and interest of this loan can be fully forgiven based on the Company incurring qualifying expenses during the defined covered period as well as meeting other criteria related to employee retention. The Company applied for forgiveness of this loan in November 2020, which was subsequently approved and forgiven in May 2021.

In September 2020, the Company applied for and received a loan from the federal government as part of the SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan in the amount of $149,900 bearing interest of 3.75% per annum. Repayment of this loan begins in September 2022 with 348 monthly payments of $731 of principal and interest with a final payment due in September 205 for all remaining unpaid principal and interest. This loan is secured generally by all assets of the Company.

In January 2021 Banner applied for and received a second unsecured forgivable loan guaranteed by the federal government as part of the Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program in the amount of $309,775 bearing interest at 1%. Principal and interest of this loan can be fully forgiven based on the Company incurring qualifying expenses during the defined covered period as well as meeting other criteria related to employee retention. The company has not applied for forgiveness, but expects to apply prior to December 31, 2022.

4.EQUITY TRANSACTIONS


Fourth Amended Operating Agreement

Effective January 17, 2019, the Company adopted the Fourth Amended Operating Agreement. This operating agreement, among other things, updated sharing ratios and further defined management incentive units as follows:

a) Series A Preferred Sharing Ratio:

i. Sage Road: 64.47%

ii. Wells Fargo Energy Capital (“WFEC”) 35.53%

b) Management Incentive Units (by type):

i. Pennant MIU: 5,000 units outstanding

ii. 2019 MIU: 87,000 units outstanding

c) Generally, distribution was allocated as follows:

i. Members of Non-Management Group and holders of MIUs at determined sharing ratios based on distribution thresholds;

ii. Members holding Series A Preferred Interests in accordance to their Series A Preferred Sharing Ratio;

iii. Preference Threshold Group, (Sage Road 97.22% and Pennant Energy, LLC 2.78%)

iv. Preference Threshold Group and Pennant MIU at determined sharing ratios based on return on investment.

In October, 2019, Sage Road purchased the Series A Preferred Interests from WFEC.

Management incentive units were administered under two separate plans by the Company’s Board of Managers. The first plan, the Management Incentive Units Plan includes units awarded to members of Pennant (“Pennant MIU Plan”) and the second plan, the 2018 Management Incentive Pool Plan (“2018 MIU Plan”) were each authorized to issue 100,000 units. The Pennant MIU Plan calls for units to vest at 20% on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of the grant with any unvested units fully vesting on the date of a Vesting Event, as defined. The 2018 MIU Plan calls for units to vest at 25% on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of the grant with any unvested units fully vesting on the date of a Vesting Event, as defined. Additionally, all management incentive units lack voting rights and are subject to transfer restrictions unless waived by the board of managers. Both plans and their corresponding units were cancelled in 2020 as discussed below.

As of December 31, 2019, the Series A Preferred Interests had accumulated $1,434,150 in preferred returns.

| 11 |

| --- |

Fifth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement

Effective November 24, 2020, the Company adopted the Fifth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement. This operating agreement amends and restates the previous agreement in its entirety. This agreement, among other things, confirmed the Plan of Division approved by the Company’s board of managers on November 23, 2020, whereby Banner Holdings was formed becoming Banner’s parent company. All existing capital interests and incentive units of Banner were exchanged by Banner’s existing members for an equal amount of capital interests and incentive units in Banner Holdings. Banner Holdings received 100% of Banner’s capital interests in exchange for assuming all of Banner’s obligations regarding the revolving credit facility formerly held by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and subsequently purchased by Sage Road. As a result, Banner eliminated the note payable of $18,892,165, and the related paid in kind interest payable of $1,580,162 and recorded a capital contribution of $20,472,327.

The new operating agreement cancelled all previously issued management incentive units (“MIU’s”), converted all previous Series A Preferred Interests and Capital Interests into new Capital Interests, admitted new members through receipt of capital contributions, and issued new MIU’s under the 2020 Incentive Pool Plan (“2020 MIU Plan”). The 2020 MIU Plan allows a maximum of 100,000 authorized units to be issued, and calls for units to vest at 25% on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of the grant with any unvested units fully vesting on the date of a vesting event, as defined. Additionally, all management incentive units lack voting rights and are subject to transfer restrictions unless waived by the board of managers. A total of 75,000 shares were issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020.

Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control

Effective October 1, 2020, capital contributions were received primarily in the form of oil and gas assets from two commonly controlled companies, K3 Oil, LLC (“K3”) and 2W Energy Partners, LLC (“2W”) and were recorded as an exchange between entities under common control. Both companies created subsidiaries to contain the assets contributed, K3 AssetCo, LLC and 2W AssetCo, LLC. The subsidiaries were contributed to Banner in exchange for Banner capital interests. Sage Road owned approximately, 97%, 92% and 94% of Banner Holdings, K3 and 2W, respectively prior to the transactions. In accordance with accounting guidance, Banner recorded the assets and liabilities contributed by K3 and 2W at historical cost with operations recorded prospectively from the effective contribution date.

The following amounts were recorded on October 1, 2020 as a result of this activity:

K3 AssetCo, LLC:

Financial Statement Line Item Amount
Oil and gas properties $ 3,217,463
Accounts Payable 5,685
Asset Retirement Obligation 797,178
Members’ Equity 1,914,600

2W AssetCo, LLC:

Financial Statement Line Item Amount

Members’ Equity 1,627,843
| 12 |

| --- |

Banner also paid $500,000 and $200,000 to K3 and 2W, respectively in lieu of assuming certain liabilities.

Capital interest sharing ratios are as follows at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Capital Interests
Member Sharing Ratio
Banner Holdings, LLC 65.88 %
K3 Oil LLC 13.19 %
2W Energy Partners, LLC 20.41 %

5.OIL AND NATURAL GAS INFORMATION


Costs related to the oil and natural gas activities of the Company, including those related to property acquisitions, were incurred as follows for the periods ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Nine Months Ended Twelve Months Ended
September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Acquisition Costs $ 1,313 $ 49,246
Development Costs $ 1,831,963 $ 775,837

The Company had the following aggregate capitalized costs relating to the Company’s oil and natural gas activities at September 30, 2021:

Nine Months Ended Twelve Months Ended
September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Proved oil and gas properties $ 113,908,345 $ 112,870,506
Less accumulated DD&A and impairment (83,980,857 ) (82,659,080 )
Total oil and gas properties $ 29,927,488 $ 30,211,426

For the periods ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no unproved properties excluded from the amortization base.

6.DERIVATIVE TRANSACTIONS


The results of operations and operating cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for oil and natural gas. To mitigate a portion of this exposure, the Company has entered into certain derivative instruments, none of which were elected to be designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s derivative instruments were comprised of fixed price swaps and/or collars.

In fixed-price swap instruments, the Company receives a fixed-price for the hedged commodity and pays a floating market price to the counterparty. The fixed-price payment and the floating-price payment are netted, resulting in a net amount due to or from the counterparty.

Collars contain a fixed floor price (put) and ceiling price (call). If the market price exceeds the call strike price or falls below the put strike price, the Company receives the fixed price and pays the market price. If the market price is between the call and the put strike price, no payments are due from either party.

7.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS


FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (as amended) (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, outlines a fair value hierarchy based on inputs used to measure fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, use of unobservable prices or inputs are used to estimate the current fair value, often using an internal valuation model. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the item being valued.

| 14 |

| --- |

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels—defined by ASC 820 and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities—are as follows:

Level I—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level II—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.

Level III—Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The fair value of derivative contracts is measured using Level II inputs and is determined by either market prices on an active market for similar assets or by prices quoted by a broker or other market-corroborated prices, including analysis of formal pricing curves on national exchanges. The Company also utilizes credit information about counterparties, as well as a credit rating factor derived from yields on the debt of peers in the industry, in order to adjust derivative valuations for credit risk.

Additions to asset retirement obligations are measured using primarily Level III inputs. The significant unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, inflation rate and well life. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs. See Note 2 for a roll forward of the asset retirement obligation.

The estimated fair values of assets and liabilities included in the consolidated balance sheets are summarized below as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

8.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


Due to the nature of the oil and natural gas business, the Company is exposed to possible environmental risks. The Company has implemented various policies and procedures to avoid environmental contamination and risks from environmental contamination. The Company conducts periodic reviews to identify changes in our environmental risk profile. These reviews evaluate whether there is a contingent liability, its amount, and the likelihood that the liability will be incurred.

The amount of any potential liability is determined by considering, among other matters, incremental direct costs of any likely remediation. The Company manages its exposure to environmental liabilities on properties to be acquired by identifying existing problems and assessing the potential liability. Depending on the extent of an identified environmental problem, the Company may exclude a property from the acquisition, require the seller to remediate the property, or agree to assume liability for the remediation of the property. The Company has historically not experienced any significant environmental liability and is not aware of any potential material environmental issues or claims at September 30, 2021.

The Company is periodically subject to lawsuits, investigations and disputes, including matters relating to commercial transactions, environmental and health and safety matters. A liability is recognized for any contingency that is possible of occurrence and reasonably estimable. The Company continually assesses the likelihood of adverse judgements of outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. None of these actions are expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company. The Company will continue to monitor the impact that litigation could have on the Company and will assess the impact of future events on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. As of September 30, 2021, the Company does not have any litigation liabilities that require an accrual.

9.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 1, 2022, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. On January 5, 2022, the Company sold producing properties in Kansas, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Texas to US Energy Corp. (Ticker: USEG) in exchange for stock, cash and the assumption of underwater hedges. There were no other subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure.

Management’sResponsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’sResponsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls.

WoodfordPetroleum LLC

Notes to Financial Statements


Note1. Organization and Business

Woodford Petroleum LLC (the Company) is a limited liability company organized on February 3, 2017 in the State of Delaware. The Company is an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in acquisition, exploration, production, and development of reserves in the Mid-Continent region, including Oklahoma, Colorado, Kansas and Texas. The Company’s strategy is to target areas near existing production that have not been produced.

The rights and obligations of the equity holders of the Company (the Members) are governed by the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Woodford Petroleum LLC (the Agreement). According to the Agreement, Members shall not be liable for the debts, obligations, or liabilities of the Company.

The Company has two classes of member units, Class A and Class B. Class A Members have the preferential position in the distributions of available cash and the authorization to appoint the Members of the Board of Managers under the terms of the Agreement. At December 31, 2020, 7,851 Class A units and 1,000 Class B units were issued. In accordance with the Agreement, Class A Members have committed to contribute up to $20,700,000 to the Company. Capital calls through December 31, 2020 from Class A Members totaled $7,850,854.

According to the Agreement, the Company shall dissolve and cease to exist upon the first to occur of the following: (a) election of the Board of Managers to dissolve the Company, (b) the occurrence of any other event causing dissolution of the Company, or (c) December 31, 2022 (or later date as approved by a majority vote of the Board of Managers).

Note2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Accounting principles followed and the methods of applying those principles which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows are summarized below.

ManagementEstimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant assumptions are required in the valuation of proved oil and gas reserves which, as described below, may affect the amount at which oil and gas properties are recorded. Estimation of asset retirement obligations also require significant assumptions. It is possible these estimates could be revised in the near term and these revisions could be material.

Cashand Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

WoodfordPetroleum LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

AccountsReceivable – Oil and Gas Sales

Accounts receivable – oil and gas sales include amounts due from oil and gas purchasers. Accounts receivable include accrued revenues due under normal trade terms, generally requiring payment within 30 – 60 days of production. No interest was charged in 2020 and 2019 on past-due balances. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is determined based upon reviews of individual accounts, historical losses, existing economic conditions and other pertinent factors. The Company did not provide an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2020 and 2019, based upon management’s expectation that all receivables will be collected.

Oiland Gas Properties

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including costs directly related to overhead and related asset retirement obligations, are capitalized. Costs incurred to maintain producing wells and related equipment and lease and well operating costs are charged to expense as incurred.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves are amortized on the unit-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unevaluated properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the unevaluated properties are impaired, the related costs are added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.

Unevaluated oil and gas properties consist principally of the Company’s acquisition costs in undeveloped leases net of transfers to depletable oil and gas properties. When leases are developed, expire, or are abandoned, the related costs are transferred from unevaluated oil and gas properties to depletable oil and gas properties. Additionally, the Company reviews the carrying costs of unevaluated properties for the purpose of determining probable future lease expirations and abandonments, and prospective discounted future economic benefit attributable to the leases. The Company records an allowance for impairment based on the review with the corresponding charge being made to depletable oil and gas properties.

In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which limits such costs to the aggregate of the estimated present value (discounted at ten percent) of future net revenues from proved reserves, using the first of the month un-weighted average pricing for the year, based on current operating conditions, plus the fair market value of unevaluated properties. The Company recognized an impairment expense of $907,235 and $311,132 during 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the Company. Abandoned properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no loss recognized.

Notes to Financial Statements

AssetRetirement Obligations

The Company accounts for its asset retirement obligations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 410, AssetRetirement and Environmental Obligations (ASC Topic 410). ASC Topic 410 establishes accounting requirements for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets, including: 1) the timing of liability recognition, 2) initial measurement of the liability, 3) allocation of asset retirement costs to expense, 4) subsequent measurement of the liability, and 5) related financial statement disclosure. ASC Topic 410 requires that an asset retirement cost be capitalized as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method.

The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate to future plugging and abandonment costs of its oil and gas properties. Under the provisions of ASC Topic 410, the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recorded in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The liability is accreted each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, the difference is recorded as an adjustment to the full cost pool.

RevenueRecognition

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from its interests in the sale of oil and natural gas production. The Company recognizes revenue from its interests in the sales of oil and natural gas in the period that its performance obligations are satisfied. Performance obligations are satisfied when the customer obtains control of product, when the Company has no further obligations to perform related to the sale, when the transaction price has been determined and when collectability is probable. The sales of oil and gas are made under contracts which the related-party operators of the wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered in the current month. The Company receives payment from the sale of oil and natural gas production from one to two months after delivery. At the end of each month when the performance obligation is satisfied, the variable consideration can be reasonably estimated and amounts due from customers are accrued in accounts receivable, net in the balance sheets. Variances between the Company’s estimated revenue and actual payments are recorded in the month the payment is received, however, differences have been and are insignificant. Accordingly, the variable consideration is not constrained.

The Company’s oil is typically sold at delivery points under contracts terms that are common in its industry. The Company’s natural gas produced is delivered to various purchasers at agreed upon delivery points under a limited number of contract types that are also common in the industry. Regardless of the contract type, the terms of these contracts compensate the well operators for the value of the oil and gas at specified prices, and then the well operators will remit payment to the Company for its share in the value of the oil and gas.

WoodfordPetroleum LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

The Company’s disaggregated revenue has two revenue sources which are oil sales and natural gas sales and only operates in one geographic area.

2020 2019
Oil Sales $ 396,062 $ 657,870
Gas Sales 4,500 23,968
$ 400,562 $ 681,838

IncomeTaxes

The Company is organized as a Delaware limited liability company and is treated as a flow-through entity for federal income tax purposes. As a result, the net taxable income or loss of the Company and any related tax credits, for federal income tax purposes, are deemed to pass to the members of the Company even though such net taxable income or tax credits may not have actually been distributed. Accordingly, no tax provision has been made in the financial statements of the Company since the federal income tax is an obligation of the members.

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740), related to accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. ASC Topic 740 provides the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. ASC Topic 740 requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the financial effects of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, including resolution of any appeals or litigation processes, based upon the technical merits of the position.

ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on measurement, classification, interest and penalties and disclosure. Tax positions taken related to the Company’s pass-through status and those taken in determining its state income tax liability, including deductibility of expenses, have been reviewed and management is of the opinion that material positions taken by the Company would more likely than not be sustained upon examination. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an income tax liability for uncertain tax positions.


SignificantConcentrations

The Company regularly maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to the related risks to cash and cash equivalents and does not believe its exposure to such risk to be more than nominal.

The Company had revenues from three purchasers which accounted for 100% of oil and gas revenues during 2020 and 2019. This concentration of customers may impact the Company’s overall business risk, either positively or negatively, in that these entities may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. The Company believes this risk is mitigated by the size, reputation and nature of its purchasers. The Company generates 100% of its revenues from oil and gas production in Oklahoma.

Note6. Related Party Transactions

One of the Class A members of the Company hold 100% of the ownership in K3 Oil and Gas Operating Company (K3 Operating). K3 Operating is the operator for the Company, and pays the majority of expenditures, including capital and operating expenses, on the Company’s behalf. The Company then reimburses K3 Operating for its portion of the expenditures. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had a payable to K3 Operating related to these expenditures in the amounts of $118,248 and $1,126,174, respectively. Substantially all of the general and administrative expenses were incurred by and charged to the Company by K3 Operating.

Note7. Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurement. The three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements defined by ASC Topic 820 is as follows:

Level<br> 1 Unadjusted,<br> quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. An<br> active market is defined as a market where transactions for the financial instrument occur with sufficient frequency and volume to<br> provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level<br> 2 Inputs,<br> other than quoted prices within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation<br> with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level<br> 3 Prices<br> or valuations that require unobservable inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Valuation<br> under Level 3 generally involves a significant degree of judgment from management.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

FairValue on a Nonrecurring Basis

AssetRetirement Obligations

The asset retirement obligations estimates are derived from historical costs and management’s expectation of future cost environments and, therefore, the Company has designated these liabilities as Level 3 measurements. The significant inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging, abandonment and remediation costs, well life, inflation and credit-adjusted risk free rate. See Note 5 for a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the liability for the Company’s asset retirement obligations.

Note8. Members’ Equity Accounts

Capital contributions will be based on capital calls, to be determined by the Board of Managers. Contribution requests to the Members will be based on their commitment and any items in nature of income or gain will be applied to the Members’ capital accounts in accordance with their earnings interest, as defined by the Agreement.

The Company has two classes of members’ equity; Class A Units and Class B Units. Class A Units have all the rights, privileges, preferences and obligations provided for in the Agreement, which are consistent with an ordinary equity ownership interest. Class B Units, otherwise referred to as management incentive units, do not have voting rights. Class B unit holders will only be entitled to share in distributions and allocations if and to the extent applicable thresholds have been met. Class B Units are discussed further in Note 9.

Note9. Management Incentive Units

The Company has a Management Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan) to award management incentive units (in the form of Class B units) to key employees and independent contractors of the Company. The Incentive Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Managers (the Board) and is subject to termination, at any time, as determined by the Board. The Agreement states that these Class B units are Profits Interests and are subject to vesting and achievement of a performance hurdle.

The MIUs issued fall under the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives goods or services in exchange for: (a) equity instruments of the company or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. ASC Topic 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which a company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions.

The Class B Units represent non-voting equity interests and do not entitle the holders to voting rights. Members holding Class B Units shall be subject in all respects to the Agreement, including provisions relating to the distributions of such profits, information rights with respect to the Company, and competition and confidentiality.

Based on the relevant terms that define the Class B Units, these instruments should be treated as an equity ownership interest of the Company, with no value attributed and no expense recognized. Similar instruments that qualify as equity-based compensation instruments (such as stock options and restricted stock) with similar performance metrics are considered performance vested instruments with no expense recognized until the Company’s achievement of such metrics are deemed “probable”, as defined by ASC Topic 718.

Given the aggressive metrics set forth by the Agreement and the history of the Company as well as the practical scenarios under which similar instruments are typically realized (units typically do not have value until a major asset liquidation occurs, which cannot be deemed “probable” under ASC Topic 718 until it has occurred), the realization of these units is not probable at December 31, 2020.

Note10. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

In the course of its business affairs and operations, the Company is subject to possible loss contingencies arising from third party litigation, federal, state and local environmental and health and safety laws and regulations. There are no matters which, in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

EnvironmentalIssues

The Company’s operations are subject to risks normally incidental to the exploration for and the production of oil and gas, including blowouts, fires, and environmental risks such as oil spills or gas leaks that could expose the Company to liabilities associated with these risks. In the Company’s acquisition of existing or previously drilled well bores, the Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated. The Company maintains comprehensive insurance coverage that it believes is adequate to mitigate the risk of any adverse financial effects associated with these risks.

However, should it be determined that a liability exists with respect to any environmental cleanup or restoration, the liability to cure such a violation could still fall upon the Company. No claim has been made, nor is the Company aware of the assertion of any liability which the Company may have, as it relates to any environmental cleanup, restoration or the violation of any rules or regulations relating thereto. In addition, the Company is subject to extensive regulation at the federal and state levels that may materially affect its operations.

Note11. Subsequent Events

On January 5, 2021, the Company received a capital contribution from Class A unit holders in the amount of $65,000 to fund working capital needs.

On January 19, 2021, the Company received a capital contribution from Class A unit holders in the amount of $45,000 to fund working capital needs.

The Company has evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after December 31, 2020 and through the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, May 21, 2021. Based on this evaluation, no additional material events were identified which require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements except as disclosed.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note1. Organization and Business

Woodford Petroleum LLC (the Company) is a limited liability company organized on February 3, 2017 in the State of Delaware. The Company is an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in acquisition, exploration, production, and development of reserves in the Mid-Continent region, including Oklahoma, Colorado, Kansas and Texas. The Company’s strategy is to target areas near existing production that have not been produced.

The rights and obligations of the equity holders of the Company (the Members) are governed by the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Woodford Petroleum LLC (the Agreement). According to the Agreement, Members shall not be liable for the debts, obligations, or liabilities of the Company.

The Company has two classes of member units, Class A and Class B. Class A Members have the preferential position in the distributions of available cash and the authorization to appoint the Members of the Board of Managers under the terms of the Agreement

According to the Agreement, the Company shall dissolve and cease to exist upon the first to occur of the following: (a) election of the Board of Managers to dissolve the Company, (b) the occurrence of any other event causing dissolution of the Company, or (c) December 31, 2022 (or later date as approved by a majority vote of the Board of Managers).

Note2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basisof Presentation

The Company follows accounting standards established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). The FASB sets accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) to ensure consistent reporting of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. References to GAAP issued by the FASB in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or Codification). The condensed interim financial information includes a note that the financial information does not represent complete financial statements and is to be read in conjunction with the entity’s latest audited annual financial statements. The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation for the period presented have been included.

The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual method of accounting in accordance with GAAP. Accounting principles followed and the methods of applying those principles which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows are summarized below.

ManagementEstimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant assumptions are required in the valuation of proved oil and gas reserves which, as described below, may affect the amount at which oil and gas properties are recorded. Estimation of asset retirement obligations also require significant assumptions. It is possible these estimates could be revised in the near term and these revisions could be material.

Notes to Financial Statements

Cashand Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

AccountsReceivable – Oil and Gas Sales

The Company’s accounts receivable are generated from oil and gas sales and from joint interest owners on properties that the Company operates. The Company’s oil and gas receivables are typically collected within one to two months. No allowance for bad debts has been recorded at September 30, 2021.

Oiland Gas Properties

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including costs directly related to overhead and related asset retirement obligations, are capitalized. Costs incurred to maintain producing wells and related equipment and lease and well operating costs are charged to expense as incurred.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves are amortized on the unit-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unevaluated properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the unevaluated properties are impaired, the related costs are added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.

Unevaluated oil and gas properties consist principally of the Company’s acquisition costs in undeveloped leases net of transfers to depletable oil and gas properties. When leases are developed, expire, or are abandoned, the related costs are transferred from unevaluated oil and gas properties to depletable oil and gas properties. Additionally, the Company reviews the carrying costs of unevaluated properties for the purpose of determining probable future lease expirations and abandonments, and prospective discounted future economic benefit attributable to the leases. The Company records an allowance for impairment based on the review with the corresponding charge being made to depletable oil and gas properties.

In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which limits such costs to the aggregate of the estimated present value (discounted at ten percent) of future net revenues from proved reserves, using the first of the month un-weighted average pricing for the year, based on current operating conditions, plus the fair market value of unevaluated properties. The Company did not recognize an impairment for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2021 or September 30, 2020.

Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the Company. Abandoned properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no loss recognized.

Notes to Financial Statements


AssetRetirement Obligations

The Company accounts for its asset retirement obligations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 410, AssetRetirement and Environmental Obligations (ASC Topic 410). ASC Topic 410 establishes accounting requirements for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets, including: 1) the timing of liability recognition, 2) initial measurement of the liability, 3) allocation of asset retirement costs to expense, 4) subsequent measurement of the liability, and 5) related financial statement disclosure. ASC Topic 410 requires that an asset retirement cost be capitalized as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method.

The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate to future plugging and abandonment costs of its oil and gas properties. Under the provisions of ASC Topic 410, the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recorded in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The liability is accreted each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, the difference is recorded as an adjustment to the full cost pool.

RevenueRecognition

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from its interests in the sale of oil and natural gas production. The Company recognizes revenue from its interests in the sales of oil and natural gas in the period that its performance obligations are satisfied. Performance obligations are satisfied when the customer obtains control of product, when the Company has no further obligations to perform related to the sale, when the transaction price has been determined and when collectability is probable. The sales of oil and gas are made under contracts which the related-party operators of the wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered in the current month. The Company receives payment from the sale of oil and natural gas production from one to two months after delivery. At the end of each month when the performance obligation is satisfied, the variable consideration can be reasonably estimated and amounts due from customers are accrued in accounts receivable, net in the balance sheets. Variances between the Company’s estimated revenue and actual payments are recorded in the month the payment is received, however, differences have been and are insignificant. Accordingly, the variable consideration is not constrained.

The Company’s oil is typically sold at delivery points under contracts terms that are common in its industry. The Company’s natural gas produced is delivered to various purchasers at agreed upon delivery points under a limited number of contract types that are also common in the industry. Regardless of the contract type, the terms of these contracts compensate the well operators for the value of the oil and gas at specified prices, and then the well operators will remit payment to the Company for its share in the value of the oil and gas.

Notes to Financial Statements


IncomeTaxes

The Company is organized as a Delaware limited liability company and is treated as a flow-through entity for federal income tax purposes. As a result, the net taxable income or loss of the Company and any related tax credits, for federal income tax purposes, are deemed to pass to the members of the Company even though such net taxable income or tax credits may not have actually been distributed. Accordingly, no tax provision has been made in the financial statements of the Company since the federal income tax is an obligation of the members.

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740), related to accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. ASC Topic 740 provides the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. ASC Topic 740 requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the financial effects of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, including resolution of any appeals or litigation processes, based upon the technical merits of the position.

ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on measurement, classification, interest and penalties and disclosure. Tax positions taken related to the Company’s pass-through status and those taken in determining its state income tax liability, including deductibility of expenses, have been reviewed and management is of the opinion that material positions taken by the Company would more likely than not be sustained upon examination. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an income tax liability for uncertain tax positions.


SignificantConcentrations

The Company regularly maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to the related risks to cash and cash equivalents and does not believe its exposure to such risk to be more than nominal.

The Company had revenues from three purchasers which accounted for 100% of oil and gas revenues during 2021 and 2020. This concentration of customers may impact the Company’s overall business risk, either positively or negatively, in that these entities may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. The Company believes this risk is mitigated by the size, reputation and nature of its purchasers. The Company generates 100% of its revenues from oil and gas production in Oklahoma.

Note6. Related Party Transactions

One of the Class A members of the Company hold 100% of the ownership in K3 Oil and Gas Operating Company (K3 Operating). K3 Operating is the operator for the Company, and pays the majority of expenditures, including capital and operating expenses, on the Company’s behalf. The Company then reimburses K3 Operating for its portion of the expenditures. As of September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the Company had a payable to K3 Operating related to these expenditures in the amounts of $9,475 and $76,037, respectively. Substantially all of the general and administrative expenses were incurred by and charged to the Company by K3 Operating.

Note7. Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurement. The three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements defined by ASC Topic 820 is as follows:

Level<br> 1 Unadjusted,<br> quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. An<br> active market is defined as a market where transactions for the financial instrument occur with sufficient frequency and volume to<br> provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level<br> 2 Inputs,<br> other than quoted prices within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation<br> with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level<br> 3 Prices<br> or valuations that require unobservable inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Valuation<br> under Level 3 generally involves a significant degree of judgment from management.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

FairValue on a Nonrecurring Basis

AssetRetirement Obligations

The asset retirement obligations estimates are derived from historical costs and management’s expectation of future cost environments and, therefore, the Company has designated these liabilities as Level 3 measurements. The significant inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging, abandonment and remediation costs, well life, inflation and credit-adjusted risk free rate. See Note 5 for a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the liability for the Company’s asset retirement obligations.

Note8. Members’ Equity Accounts

Capital contributions will be based on capital calls, to be determined by the Board of Managers. Contribution requests to the Members will be based on their commitment and any items in nature of income or gain will be applied to the Members’ capital accounts in accordance with their earnings interest, as defined by the Agreement.

The Company has two classes of members’ equity; Class A Units and Class B Units. Class A Units have all the rights, privileges, preferences and obligations provided for in the Agreement, which are consistent with an ordinary equity ownership interest. Class B Units, otherwise referred to as management incentive units, do not have voting rights. Class B unit holders will only be entitled to share in distributions and allocations if and to the extent applicable thresholds have been met.

Note9. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

In the course of its business affairs and operations, the Company is subject to possible loss contingencies arising from third party litigation, federal, state and local environmental and health and safety laws and regulations. There are no matters which, in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

EnvironmentalIssues

The Company’s operations are subject to risks normally incidental to the exploration for and the production of oil and gas, including blowouts, fires, and environmental risks such as oil spills or gas leaks that could expose the Company to liabilities associated with these risks. In the Company’s acquisition of existing or previously drilled well bores, the Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated. The Company maintains comprehensive insurance coverage that it believes is adequate to mitigate the risk of any adverse financial effects associated with these risks.

However, should it be determined that a liability exists with respect to any environmental cleanup or restoration, the liability to cure such a violation could still fall upon the Company. No claim has been made, nor is the Company aware of the assertion of any liability which the Company may have, as it relates to any environmental cleanup, restoration or the violation of any rules or regulations relating thereto. In addition, the Company is subject to extensive regulation at the federal and state levels that may materially affect its operations.

Note10. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 25, 2022, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. On January 5, 2022, the Company sold producing properties in the Bowling Ranch field in Oklahoma to US Energy Corp. (Ticker: USEG) in exchange for stock and cash. There were no other subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure. * * * * * *

Note1 – Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Llano Energy LLC (the Company) is a limited liability company (LLC) organized on March 31, 2017. As an LLC, members are not liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company. The Company will continue in existence until it is dissolved in accordance with the Limited Liability Company Agreement dated June 9, 2017, and amended on August 1, 2020 (the LLC Agreement). Net income and loss and distributions are allocated to members according to the LLC Agreement.

Description of the business

The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and gas. The Company’s operations are in the state of New Mexico. An affiliate serves as the operator for a portion of the Company’s properties (see Note 3). Remaining properties are operated by a third party.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include proved oil and gas reserves and related present value of future net revenues, carrying amounts of oil and gas properties, and asset retirement obligations.

Cash

The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts which at times exceeds federally insured limits. Management of the Company believes that any possible credit risk is minimal. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s deposits did not exceed federally insured limits.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In determining the appropriate amount to recognize, the Company applies the following five-step model: (i) identify contracts with customers; (ii) identify performance obligations in the contracts; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations per the contracts; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

| F-6 |

| --- |

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from payments received from the operators of properties based on the sale of oil and gas production. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities on oil and gas sales are presented separately from such revenues. Each barrel of oil or thousand cubic feet of gas delivered is considered a separate performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue from its interests in the sale of oil and gas in the period that its performance obligations to provide oil and gas to customers are satisfied. Performance obligations are satisfied when the Company has no further obligations to perform related to the sale and the customer obtains control of product. The sales of oil and gas are made under contracts which the operators of the wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered in the current month. The Company receives payment from the sale of oil and gas production from one to four months after delivery. At the end of each month, as performance obligations are satisfied, the variable consideration can be reasonably estimated and amounts due from customers are accrued in accounts receivable in the balance sheets. Variances between the Company’s estimated revenue and actual payments are recorded in the month the payment is received; however, differences have been and are insignificant. Accordingly, the variable consideration is not constrained. A portion of oil and gas sales recorded in the statements of operations are the result of estimated volumes and pricing for oil and gas product not yet received for the period. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, that estimate represented $178,001 and $403,278, respectively, of oil and gas sales included in the statements of operations.

The Company’s contracts with customers originate at or near the time of delivery and transfer of control of oil and gas to the purchasers. As such, the Company does not have significant unsatisfied performance obligations.

The Company’s oil is typically sold at delivery points under contracts that are common in the industry. The Company’s gas produced is delivered by the well operators to various purchasers at agreed upon delivery points under a limited number of contract types that are also common in the industry. However, under these contracts, gas may be sold to a single purchaser or may be sold to separate purchasers. Regardless of the contract type, the terms of these contracts compensate the well operators for the value of the oil and gas at specified prices, and then the well operators will remit payment to the Company for its share in the value of the oil and gas sold.

Revenues and the amount of cash available for distribution may vary significantly from period to period as a result of changes in volumes of production sold or changes in commodity prices. For the years ended December 31, the Company’s revenues consisted of the following:

2020 2019
Oil $ 1,226,280 $ 2,043,222
Gas 21,001 8,579
Total<br> oil and gas sales $ 1,247,281 $ 2,051,801

Oil and gas producing activities

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Intangible drilling and other costs of successful wells and development dry holes are capitalized and amortized. The costs of exploratory wells are initially capitalized, but charged to expense, if the well is determined to be nonproductive. Leasehold costs are capitalized when incurred.

Unproved properties are assessed for impairment on a property-by-property basis for individually significant properties and on an aggregate basis for individually insignificant properties. If the assessment indicates impairment, a loss is recognized by providing a valuation allowance at the level at which impairment was assessed. The impairment assessment is affected by economic factors such as the results of exploration activities, commodity price outlooks, remaining lease terms and potential shifts in business strategy employed by management. In the case of individually insignificant balances, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is determined by amortizing the portion of these properties’ costs, which the Company believes will not be transferred to proved properties over the remaining lives of the leases. Impairment loss is charged to exploration costs when recognized.

| F-7 |

| --- |

It is common business practice in the petroleum industry for drilling costs to be prepaid before spudding a well. The Company frequently fulfills these prepayment requirements with cash payments, but at times will utilize letters of credit to meet these obligations. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no outstanding letters of credit.

All costs related to production activities, including workover costs incurred solely to maintain or increase levels of production from an existing completion interval, are charged to expense as incurred.

The Company recognizes liabilities for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets, such as well sites when there are legal obligations associated with the retirement of such assets and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations is recorded as a liability at its fair value, with an offsetting asset retirement cost recorded as an increase to the associated property and equipment on the balance sheets. When the assumptions used to estimate a recorded asset retirement obligation change, a revision is recorded to both the asset retirement obligation and the asset retirement cost. The asset retirement cost is depreciated using a systematic and rational method similar to that used for the associated property and equipment.

Depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment

Depreciation, depletion and amortization of the costs of proved properties are computed using the unit-of-production method on a property-by-property basis using proved or proved developed reserves, as applicable, as estimated by the Company’s independent consulting petroleum engineer. The Company’s capitalized costs of drilling and equipping all development wells and those exploratory wells that have found proved reserves are amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the remaining life of associated proved developed reserves. Lease costs are amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the remaining life of associated total proved reserves.

The Company recognizes impairment losses for long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the assets’ carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. Fair values are based on discounted cash flow as estimated by the Company’s independent consulting petroleum engineer. The Company’s estimate of fair value of its proved properties at December 31, 2020, is based on the best information available as of that date, including estimates of forward prices and costs. The Company’s proved properties are reviewed for impairment on a property-by-property basis. Reductions in prices or a decline in reserve volumes would likely lead to impairment in future periods that may be material to the Company.

The process of estimating proved reserves is very complex, requiring significant judgment in the evaluation of all available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. The data may change substantially over time because of numerous factors, including the historical 12-month weighted average prices, additional development costs and activity, evolving production history and a continual reassessment of the viability of production under changing economic conditions. As a result, material revisions to existing reserve estimates could occur from time-to-time. Such changes could trigger an impairment of the Company’s proved properties and have an impact on depreciation, depletion and amortization expense prospectively.

Environmental costs

As the Company is directly involved in the extraction and use of natural resources, it is subject to various federal, state and local provisions regarding environmental and ecological matters. Compliance with these laws may necessitate significant capital outlays; however, to date the Company’s cost of compliance has been insignificant. The Company does not believe the existence of current environmental laws, or interpretations thereof, will materially hinder or adversely affect the Company’s business operations; however, there can be no assurances of future effects on the Company of new laws or interpretations thereof. Since the Company does not operate any wells where it owns an interest, actual compliance with environmental laws is controlled by the operators, with the Company being responsible for its proportionate share of the costs involved. The Company carries liability insurance and pollution control coverage. However, all risks are not insured due to the availability and cost of insurance.

| F-8 |

| --- |

Environmental liabilities are recognized when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of that loss is reasonably estimable. Environmental liabilities, when accrued, are based upon estimates of expected future costs. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no such costs accrued.

Income tax status

As an LLC, the Company’s federal taxable income or loss is allocated to members in accordance with their respective percentage ownerships. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income taxes has been included in the financial statements. The Company could be subject to income taxes in certain states which do not recognize LLCs as disregarded entities.

Subsequent events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through March 23, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Note2 – Members’ Equity

In 2020, the Company issued Series A Capital Interests to Capital Members in exchange for cash contributions of $108,667. In 2019, cash contributions totaled $4,721,961, of which $560,000 was contributed by a Capital Member in exchange for Ordinary Capital Interests, and $4,161,961 was contributed by two Capital Members in exchange for Series A Capital Interests. The Company expects to only issue Series A Capital Interests for future capital calls, and all Capital Members will have the right to participate. Capital Interest distributions are first allocated to Capital Members holding Series A Capital Interests and then to Capital Members holding Ordinary Capital Interests. The LLC Agreement provides that no Capital Member is required to make aggregate capital contributions to the Company in excess of its capital commitment. At December 31, 2020, the unfunded capital commitments of all Capital Members totaled $29,624,928.

Pursuant to an Incentive Pool Plan (the Plan), the Company is authorized to award up to 100,000 Management Incentive Interests (nonvoting). The Plan is intended to provide incentives to participants by providing them with Management Incentive Interests in the Company. Awards of Management Incentive Interests are subject to vesting, transferability, and forfeiture provisions specified in the Plan. Management Incentive Members are allocated a share in distributions, if any, in varying ratios based upon the amount of cumulative distributions paid to Capital Members. On June 9, 2017, the Company awarded 80,000 Management Incentive Interests which vest 20% on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of the award, subject to possible accelerated vesting upon specified events occurring as provided in the Plan. Effective August 30, 2019, 28,000 Management Incentive Interests were forfeited to the Company. Awards under the Plan are accounted for as a profit-sharing arrangement and future distributions to Management Incentive Members are accrued and accounted for as compensation expense when the appropriate profit thresholds have been reached.

Note3 – Related Party Transactions

An affiliate of a member of the Company (the Affiliate) serves as contract operator under certain joint operating agreements. The Company’s oil and gas sales, net of production taxes, and related accounts receivable, for the properties operated by the Affiliate, are collected from the Affiliate. The Company’s lease operating expenses and related accounts payable are paid to the Affiliate. The Company does not have any employees. The personnel supporting the management, administration and operation of the business of the Company are employees of the Affiliate. The Company has a services agreement with the Affiliate, which specifies that the Affiliate will provide specified services to the Company for a monthly management fee. The Company incurred $307,500 and $825,000 of management fees during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September30, 2021


Note1 – Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Llano Energy LLC (the Company) is a limited liability company (LLC) organized on March 31, 2017. As an LLC, members are not liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company. The Company will continue in existence until it is dissolved in accordance with the Limited Liability Company Agreement dated June 9, 2017, and amended on August 1, 2020 (the LLC Agreement). Net income and loss and distributions are allocated to members according to the LLC Agreement.

Description of the business

The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and gas. The Company’s operations are in the state of New Mexico. An affiliate serves as the operator for a portion of the Company’s properties (see Note 2). Remaining properties are operated by a third party.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include proved oil and gas reserves and related present value of future net revenues, carrying amounts of oil and gas properties, and asset retirement obligations.

Cash

The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts which at times exceeds federally insured limits. Management of the Company believes that any possible credit risk is minimal. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s deposits did not exceed federally insured limits.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In determining the appropriate amount to recognize, the Company applies the following five-step model: (i) identify contracts with customers; (ii) identify performance obligations in the contracts; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations per the contracts; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

| 6 |

| --- |

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from payments received from the operators of properties based on the sale of oil and gas production. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities on oil and gas sales are presented separately from such revenues. Each barrel of oil or thousand cubic feet of gas delivered is considered a separate performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue from its interests in the sale of oil and gas in the period that its performance obligations to provide oil and gas to customers are satisfied. Performance obligations are satisfied when the Company has no further obligations to perform related to the sale and the customer obtains control of product. The sales of oil and gas are made under contracts which the operators of the wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered in the current month. The Company receives payment from the sale of oil and gas production from one to four months after delivery. At the end of each month, as performance obligations are satisfied, the variable consideration can be reasonably estimated and amounts due from customers are accrued in accounts receivable in the balance sheets. Variances between the Company’s estimated revenue and actual payments are recorded in the month the payment is received; however, differences have been and are insignificant. Accordingly, the variable consideration is not constrained. A portion of oil and gas sales recorded in the statements of operations are the result of estimated volumes and pricing for oil and gas product not yet received for the period. For the periods ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, that estimate represented $202,767 and $178,001, respectively, of oil and gas sales included in the statements of operations.

The Company’s contracts with customers originate at or near the time of delivery and transfer of control of oil and gas to the purchasers. As such, the Company does not have significant unsatisfied performance obligations.

The Company’s oil is typically sold at delivery points under contracts that are common in the industry. The Company’s gas produced is delivered by the well operators to various purchasers at agreed upon delivery points under a limited number of contract types that are also common in the industry. However, under these contracts, gas may be sold to a single purchaser or may be sold to separate purchasers. Regardless of the contract type, the terms of these contracts compensate the well operators for the value of the oil and gas at specified prices, and then the well operators will remit payment to the Company for its share in the value of the oil and gas sold.

Revenues and the amount of cash available for distribution may vary significantly from period to period as a result of changes in volumes of production sold or changes in commodity prices. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2021 and the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s revenues consisted of the following:

Nine Month Period
Ending September 30,
2021 2020
Oil $ 1,058,670 $ 930,169
Gas 24,164 12,917
Total oil and gas sales $ 1,082,835 $ 943,086

Oil and gas producing activities

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Intangible drilling and other costs of successful wells and development dry holes are capitalized and amortized. The costs of exploratory wells are initially capitalized, but charged to expense, if the well is determined to be nonproductive. Leasehold costs are capitalized when incurred.

Unproved properties are assessed for impairment on a property-by-property basis for individually significant properties and on an aggregate basis for individually insignificant properties. If the assessment indicates impairment, a loss is recognized by providing a valuation allowance at the level at which impairment was assessed. The impairment assessment is affected by economic factors such as the results of exploration activities, commodity price outlooks, remaining lease terms and potential shifts in business strategy employed by management. In the case of individually insignificant balances, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is determined by amortizing the portion of these properties’ costs, which the Company believes will not be transferred to proved properties over the remaining lives of the leases. Impairment loss is charged to exploration costs when recognized.

| 7 |

| --- |

It is common business practice in the petroleum industry for drilling costs to be prepaid before spudding a well. The Company frequently fulfills these prepayment requirements with cash payments, but at times will utilize letters of credit to meet these obligations. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding letters of credit.

All costs related to production activities, including workover costs incurred solely to maintain or increase levels of production from an existing completion interval, are charged to expense as incurred.

The Company recognizes liabilities for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets, such as well sites when there are legal obligations associated with the retirement of such assets and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations is recorded as a liability at its fair value, with an offsetting asset retirement cost recorded as an increase to the associated property and equipment on the balance sheets. When the assumptions used to estimate a recorded asset retirement obligation change, a revision is recorded to both the asset retirement obligation and the asset retirement cost. The asset retirement cost is depreciated using a systematic and rational method similar to that used for the associated property and equipment.

Depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment

Depreciation, depletion and amortization of the costs of proved properties are computed using the unit-of-production method on a property-by-property basis using proved or proved developed reserves, as applicable, as estimated by the Company’s independent consulting petroleum engineer. The Company’s capitalized costs of drilling and equipping all development wells and those exploratory wells that have found proved reserves are amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the remaining life of associated proved developed reserves. Lease costs are amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the remaining life of associated total proved reserves.

The Company recognizes impairment losses for long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the assets’ carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. Fair values are based on discounted cash flow as estimated by the Company’s independent consulting petroleum engineer. The Company’s estimate of fair value of its proved properties at September 30, 2021, is based on the best information available as of that date, including estimates of forward prices and costs. The Company’s proved properties are reviewed for impairment on a property-by-property basis. Reductions in prices or a decline in reserve volumes would likely lead to impairment in future periods that may be material to the Company.

The process of estimating proved reserves is very complex, requiring significant judgment in the evaluation of all available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. The data may change substantially over time because of numerous factors, including the historical 12-month weighted average prices, additional development costs and activity, evolving production history and a continual reassessment of the viability of production under changing economic conditions. As a result, material revisions to existing reserve estimates could occur from time-to-time. Such changes could trigger an impairment of the Company’s proved properties and have an impact on depreciation, depletion and amortization expense prospectively.

| --- |

Environmental costs

As the Company is directly involved in the extraction and use of natural resources, it is subject to various federal, state and local provisions regarding environmental and ecological matters. Compliance with these laws may necessitate significant capital outlays; however, to date the Company’s cost of compliance has been insignificant. The Company does not believe the existence of current environmental laws, or interpretations thereof, will materially hinder or adversely affect the Company’s business operations; however, there can be no assurances of future effects on the Company of new laws or interpretations thereof. Since the Company does not operate any wells where it owns an interest, actual compliance with environmental laws is controlled by the operators, with the Company being responsible for its proportionate share of the costs involved. The Company carries liability insurance and pollution control coverage. However, all risks are not insured due to the availability and cost of insurance.

Environmental liabilities are recognized when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of that loss is reasonably estimable. Environmental liabilities, when accrued, are based upon estimates of expected future costs. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no such costs accrued.

Income tax status

As an LLC, the Company’s federal taxable income or loss is allocated to members in accordance with their respective percentage ownerships. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income taxes has been included in the financial statements. The Company could be subject to income taxes in certain states which do not recognize LLCs as disregarded entities.

Subsequent events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 25, 2022, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. On January 5, 2022, the Company sold producing properties in the Trinity Burris field to US Energy Corp. (Ticker: USEG) in exchange for stock and cash. There were no other subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure.

Note2 – Related Party Transactions

An affiliate of a member of the Company (the Affiliate) serves as contract operator under certain joint operating agreements. The Company’s oil and gas sales, net of production taxes, and related accounts receivable, for the properties operated by the Affiliate, are collected from the Affiliate. The Company’s lease operating expenses and related accounts payable are paid to the Affiliate. The Company does not have any employees. The personnel supporting the management, administration and operation of the business of the Company are employees of the Affiliate. The Company has a services agreement with the Affiliate, which specifies that the Affiliate will provide specified services to the Company for a monthly management fee. The Company incurred $157,500 and $255,000 of management fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Synergy Offshore, LLC as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

SynergyOffshore, LLC

d/b/aSOG Resources, LLC


Notesto Financial Statements

1.Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization– Synergy Offshore, LLC d/b/a SOG Resources, LLC (the “Company”), a Texas limited liability company, was formed on March 18, 2010, as a limited partnership, and converted to a limited liability company on October 21, 2010. The Company is engaged primarily in the development of oil and natural gas properties in Montana and Wyoming. The Company is located in Houston, Texas and its fiscal year-end is December 31.

Basisof Presentation – The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Useof Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.

Significant estimates include (i) oil and gas reserves that are used in the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of the carrying value of oil and gas properties; (ii) production and commodity price estimates used to record oil and gas sales receivables; and (iii) the cost of future asset retirement obligations. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainties, including the future prices of oil and gas, these estimates could change in the near term and such changes could be material.

In early March 2020, the NYMEX WTI crude oil price decreased significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic and although it has recovered to pre-COVID-19 levels, it remained low for most of 2020. Lower oil and gas prices not only decrease our revenues, but an extended decline in oil or gas prices may materially and adversely affect our future business, financial position, cash flows, results of operations, liquidity, ability to finance planned capital expenditures and the oil and gas reserves that we can economically produce.

Cashand Cash Equivalents – The Company considers cash and unrestricted interest-bearing deposits with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its deposits of cash primarily in financial institutions, which may at times exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company has not experienced any losses related to amounts in excess of FDIC limits.

RestrictedCash – Restricted cash consists of money market accounts and certificates of deposit which are held to cover the costs of future plugging and abandonment liabilities mandated by the states of Montana and Wyoming.

Receivables– Accounts receivable consists primarily of accrued oil and gas production receivables and joint interest receivables from outside working interest owners. Generally, our oil and gas sales receivables are collected within one month. Management routinely assesses accounts receivable balances to determine their collectability and accrues an allowance for uncollectible receivables, when, based on the judgment of management, it is probable that a receivable will not be collected. Receivables are not collateralized. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019, the Company had not provided an allowance for doubtful accounts on its accounts receivable.

| F-6 |

| --- |

Oiland Gas Properties – The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas properties, and, accordingly, exploration costs, other than the costs of drilling exploratory wells, are expensed as incurred. The costs of drilling exploratory wells are capitalized pending determination of whether the wells have discovered proved commercial reserves. If proved commercial reserves are not discovered, such drilling costs are expensed. The costs of all development wells and related equipment used in the production of crude oil and natural gas are capitalized. A gain or a loss is recognized when a property is sold or an entire field ceases to produce and is abandoned.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization (“DD&A”) of oil and natural gas properties is computed using the units-of-production method based on the ratio of current production to estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves as estimated by independent petroleum engineers.

The Company reviews its oil and natural gas properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such properties may not be recoverable. When it is determined that an oil and natural gas property’s estimated future net cash flows will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce its carrying value to its estimated fair value (Level 3). The fair value of oil and natural gas properties is determined using valuation techniques consistent with the income and market approach. The factors used to determine fair value are subject to management’s judgment and expertise and include, but are not limited to, recent sales prices of comparable properties, the present value of future net cash flows, and various discount rates commensurate with the risk and current market conditions associated with the expected cash flow.

The Company recognized impairment losses of $369 thousand and $1.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These impairments were caused by declines in crude oil and natural gas prices during these years. In estimating reserves and future production volumes, estimated future commodity prices are the largest driver in variability of undiscounted pre-tax cash flows. Expected cash flows were estimated based on management’s views of published West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Henry Hub forward pricing. Other significant assumptions and inputs used to calculate estimated future cash flows include estimates for future development activity, exploration plans and remaining lease terms. The proved properties impaired had aggregate fair values as of the most recent date of impairment of $457 thousand and $347 thousand for 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Oil and gas lease acquisition costs are capitalized when incurred. If the unproved properties are determined to be productive, the appropriate related costs are transferred to proved oil and natural gas properties. Unproved properties are assessed periodically on a property-by-property basis. Any impairment in value is expensed. Delay lease rentals are expensed as incurred.

OtherProperty and Equipment – Other property and equipment consists of office furniture and fixtures, vehicles and leasehold improvements, which are carried at cost. Depreciation and amortization is provided using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the underlying lease. Depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $86 thousand and $143 thousand, respectively. Gain or loss on retirement, sale, or other disposition of these assets is included in the statement of operations in the period of disposition. Costs of major repairs that extend the useful life of these assets are capitalized. Other costs for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

| F-7 |

| --- |

The Company reviews its other property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. When it is determined that an asset’s estimated future net cash flows will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce its carrying value to its estimated fair value. No impairment loss was recognized during 2020 and 2019.

AssetRetirement Obligations – The Company recognizes a liability for the plugging, abandonment and remediation of its properties at the end of their productive lives. We compute the liability for asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) by calculating the present value of estimated future cash flows related to each property. This requires use of significant assumptions, including current estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, annual inflation of these costs, the productive lives of wells, and our credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate (all Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy). Changes in any of these assumptions can result in significant revisions to the estimated asset retirement obligations.

Initially, the fair value of the ARO is recognized in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is depleted over the life of the related asset.

Note Payable – In the second quarter of 2020, the Company received proceeds from a SBA Paycheck Protection Program Loan (“PPP Loan”) of approximately $425 thousand pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The purpose of the PPP is to encourage the continued employment of workers. The Company used all of the PPP Loan proceeds for eligible payroll expenses, lease and utility payments.

The PPP Loan and accrued interest thereon may be forgiven by the SBA upon documentation of expenditures in accordance with the SBA requirements and proper application by the Company. The Company’s application for forgiveness was approved by the SBA in the fourth quarter of 2020. Accordingly, the Company recognized approximately $425 thousand as other income in the statement of operations for this forgiveness. The SBA retains the right to review the Company’s loan file for a period subsequent to the date the loan is forgiven, with the potential for the SBA to pursue legal remedies of its discretion.

RevenueRecognition – Our revenues are primarily derived from the sales of oil and gas production. The Company’s oil and gas production is typically sold at delivery points to third-party purchasers under contract terms that are common in the oil and gas industry. These contracts typically provide for an agreed-upon index price, net of pricing differentials. The purchaser takes custody and possession, title and risk of loss of the oil at the delivery point; therefore, control passes at the delivery point. The Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser. We receive payment from the sale of oil and gas production between one to three months after delivery. For property interests where we are not the operator, we record our share of the revenues and expenses based upon the information provided by the operators.

The Company reports revenue as the gross amount received before production taxes and transportation costs. Production taxes and transportation costs are reported separately in the accompanying statements of operations.

FairValue Measurement – Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three levels related to fair value measurements are as follows:

Level<br> 1 – Observable<br> inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level<br> 2 – Observable<br> inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets;<br> quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable<br> or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level<br> 3 – Unobservable<br> inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.<br> This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques that use significant unobservable<br> inputs.

The estimated fair value of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate the carrying amount due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

We evaluate the fair value on a non-recurring basis of properties acquired in business combinations, asset acquisitions, impairments of oil and gas properties and the related asset retirement obligations. The fair value of the oil and gas properties is determined based upon estimated future discounted cash flow, a Level 3 input, using estimated production which we reasonably expect, and estimated prices adjusted for differentials. Unobservable inputs include estimated future oil and gas production, prices, operating and development costs, and a discount rate of 10%, all Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. We recognized impairments of our oil and gas properties in 2020 and 2019. These are discussed in Oil and Gas Properties above.

Unit-BasedCompensation – Unit-based compensation awards to management are accounted for at their fair value. No amounts were recognized during the periods presented as the fair value of outstanding awards were de minimus.

IncomeTaxes – The Company is taxed as a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently, federal income taxes are not payable, or provided for, by the Company. Members are taxed individually on their proportionate share of our earnings.

For state taxes, all of the revenues and properties of the Company are attributable to Montana and Wyoming.

Montana taxes the income of its resident and non-resident partners, but not the partnership doing business in the state. Wyoming does not have a corporate or personal income tax. Texas does tax the entity in a calculation based on gross receipts. However, for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Texas liability was calculated to be zero because all revenues were attributable to Montana and Wyoming in these years.


Uncertain tax positions are recognized in the financial statements only if that position is reasonably determined to be more-likely-than-not of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no uncertain tax positions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases as amended. This new standard requires organizations recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by leases. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to ASC 842, which provides a transition method that permits changes to be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We plan to adopt this new guidance effective January 1, 2022 using the transition option provided under ASU 2018-11. We are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our financial statements based on our lease portfolio. We plan to elect to exclude short-term contracts of one year or less and plan to elect the package of practical expedients allowed under the new standard.

2.Asset Retirement Obligations

The following table summarizes the changes in ARO (in thousands):

Balance at January 1, 2019 $ 11,082
Revisions of estimate 3,479
Accretion 778
Balance at December 31, 2019 15,339
Revisions of estimate (1,202 )
Accretion 778
Balance at December<br> 31, 2020 $ 14,915

Revisions in estimated liabilities during 2019 and 2020 result from changes in service and equipment costs and changes in the estimated timing of an asset’s retirement.

3.Commitments and Contingencies


Litigation***–*** From time to time, the Company may be subject to litigation or other claims in the normal course of business.

Surety Bonds – As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had surety bonds of $1.4 million issued to the Montana Board of Oil and Gas Conservation, the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission and the Wyoming Bureau of Land Management. The surety bonds are meant to cover certain plugging and abandonment liabilities related to the Company’s oil and natural gas properties in Montana and Wyoming.

Office Lease – The Company holds an operating lease for office space in Houston, Texas, expiring in January 2023. This lease may be extended at the Company’s option for an additional three years. The Company incurred rent expense of $100 thousand and $210 thousand during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Non-cancellable minimum rent payments under this lease are as follows (in thousands):

2021 $ 115
2022 117
2023 10
Total minimum lease<br> payments $ 242

Environmental Matters – Due to the nature of the oil and gas industry, we are exposed to environmental risks. We have various policies and procedures to minimize and mitigate the risks from environmental contamination. We are not aware of any material environmental claims existing as of December 31, 2020; however, there can be no assurance that current regulatory requirements will not change or that unknown potential past non-compliance with environmental laws or other environmental liabilities will not be discovered on our properties.

4.Employee Benefit Plans

Substantially all employees are eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) defined contribution plan. This plan permits eligible employees to make contributions up to certain limits. The Company makes a 4% contribution which is immediately vested to the employee. Employer contributions totaled approximately $53 thousand during 2020 and $74 thousand during 2019.

5. Members’ Equity

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had 71,131 Senior Preferred Units, 13,334 Junior Preferred Units and 2,199.9 Management Participation Units issued and outstanding. Effective December 31, 2019, all of the outstanding Senior Preferred Units and Junior Preferred Units were acquired from the unit holders by Synergy Producing Partners, LLC (“SPP”). Distributions of $546 thousand were made by the Company in connection with this transaction to reacquire and cancel the outstanding Senior Preferred Units, Junior Preferred Units and Management Participation Units.

The Company’s LLC agreement was amended and restated effective December 31, 2019 and reorganized the Company’s equity interests to consist of Senior Preferred Units owned 100% by SPP and authorized Management Participations Units. Net income (loss) is allocated to the members in accordance with the LLC Agreement. Distributions are at the discretion of the Board of Managers and amounts distributed to each member are allocated and distributed (a) first, to holders of Senior Preferred Units in an amount equal to the sum of $3 million plus any other future capital contributions made by them plus a return thereon computed at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum compounded monthly, (b) second, 80% to the holders of the Senior Preferred Units and 20% to Management Participation Unit holders (if any) until the holders of Senior Preferred Units receive a total of $6 million of cumulative distributions; and, (c) third, 70% to the holders of Senior Preferred Units and 30% to the Management Participation Unit holders.

As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, there were one million Senior Preferred Units issued and outstanding. The Company had no Management Participation Units issued or outstanding at December 31, 2019 or 2020.

6. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date and through October 21, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Note Payable – In the first quarter of 2021, the Company received proceeds from a 2^nd^ round PPP Loan of approximately $425 thousand. This 2^nd^ round PPP Loan was forgiven by the SBA in the third quarter of 2021.

Agreementto Sale Oil and Gas Properties – On October 4, 2021, we entered into Purchase and Sale Agreement with U.S. Energy Corp. (“U.S. Energy”) for the sale of all of our oil and gas properties. The transaction will also include certain wells, contracts, technical data, records, personal property and hydrocarbons associated with the assets being sold.

The initial base purchase price for the assets is $125,000 in cash and 6,546,384 shares of U.S. Energy’s common stock subject to customary working capital and other adjustments as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approval by U.S. Energy’s shareholders, the performance by the parties of their obligations and covenants under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the delivery of certain documentation by the parties and the absence of any injunction or other legal prohibitions preventing consummation of the transaction.

SupplementalOil and Gas Information

(Unaudited)

Oiland Gas Reserve Information

Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of crude oil and condensate and natural gas, which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations. Estimated proved developed oil and gas reserves can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. The Company reports all estimated proved reserves held under production-sharing arrangements utilizing the “economic interest” method.

Proved oil and gas reserves have been estimated by the Company’s internal petroleum engineers. These reserve estimates have been prepared in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and accounting standards based on the unweighted average prices per barrel of oil and per Mcf of natural gas at the first day of each month in the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting period.

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and projecting future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. The reserve data in the following tables only represent estimates and should not be construed as being exact.

The following reserves schedule sets forth the changes in estimated quantities of proved crude oil reserves**:**

Notesto Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

1.Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization– Synergy Offshore, LLC d/b/a SOG Resources, LLC (the “Company”), a Texas limited liability company, was formed on March 18, 2010, as a limited partnership, and converted to a limited liability company on October 21, 2010. The Company is engaged primarily in the development of oil and natural gas properties in Montana and Wyoming. The Company is located in Houston, Texas and its fiscal year-end is December 31.

Basisof Presentation – These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the financial position as of, and the results of operations for, all periods presented. In preparing the accompanying financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the condensed financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

Useof Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.

Significant estimates include (i) oil and gas reserves that are used in the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of the carrying value of oil and gas properties; (ii) production and commodity price estimates used to record oil and gas sales receivables; and (iii) the cost of future asset retirement obligations. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainties, including the future prices of oil and gas, these estimates could change in the near term and such changes could be material.

In the second quarter of 2020, the Company received proceeds from a SBA Paycheck Protection Program Loan (“PPP Loan”) of approximately $425 thousand pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The purpose of the PPP was to encourage the continued employment of workers. The Company used all of the PPP Loan proceeds for eligible payroll expenses, lease and utility payments.

The PPP Loan and accrued interest thereon may be forgiven by the SBA upon documentation of expenditures in accordance with the SBA requirements and proper application by the Company. The Company’s application for forgiveness was approved by the SBA in the fourth quarter of 2020. Accordingly, the Company recognized approximately $425 thousand as other income in the statement of operations for this forgiveness.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company received proceeds from a 2^nd^ round PPP Loan of approximately $425 thousand pursuant. This 2^nd^ round PPP Loan was forgiven by the SBA in the third quarter of 2021.


4.Commitments and Contingencies


Litigation***–*** From time to time, the Company may be subject to litigation or other claims in the normal course of business.

Surety Bonds – As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had surety bonds of $1.4 million issued to the Montana Board of Oil and Gas Conservation, the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission and the Wyoming Bureau of Land Management. The surety bonds are meant to cover certain plugging and abandonment liabilities related to the Company’s oil and natural gas properties in Montana and Wyoming.

Other – In the course of its normal business affairs, the Company is subject to possible loss contingencies arising from federal, state, and local environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations and third-party litigation. There are no matters which, in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

5. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date and through March 1, 2022, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

On October 4, 2021, we entered into Purchase and Sale Agreement with U.S. Energy Corp. (“U.S. Energy”) for the sale of all of our oil and gas properties.

Exhibit99.11

UnauditedPro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements


On January 5, 2022, U.S. Energy Corp. (“we”, “us”, “U.S. Energy” or the “Company”) closed the acquisitions (the “Closing”) contemplated by those certain three separate Purchase and Sale Agreements (as amended to date, the “Purchase Agreements”), previously entered into by the Company on October 4, 2021, with each of (a) Lubbock Energy Partners LLC (“Lubbock”); (b) Banner Oil & Gas, LLC (“Banner”), Woodford Petroleum, LLC (“Woodford”) and Llano Energy LLC (“Llano”, and together with Banner and Woodford, collectively, “Sage Road”), and (c) Synergy Offshore LLC (“Synergy”, and collectively with Lubbock and Sage Road, the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, U.S. Energy acquired certain oil and gas properties from the Sellers, representing a diversified, conventional portfolio of operated, producing, oil-weighted assets located across the Rockies, West Texas, Eagle Ford, and Mid-Continent. The acquisition also included certain wells, contracts, technical data, records, personal property and hydrocarbons associated with the acquired assets (collectively with the oil and gas properties acquired, the “Acquired Assets”).

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of U.S. Energy Corp. as of September 30, 2021 with the historical balance sheets of Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road, as of September 30, 2021, giving effect to the closing of the Purchase Agreements, on a pro forma basis as if they had been completed on September 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations below for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the nine months ended September 30, 2021, both give effect to the Acquisitions (defined below) as if they had occurred on January 1, 2020.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of U.S. Energy, Lubbock, Synergy, Banner, Woodford and Llano and has been adjusted to reflect the following:

U.S.<br> Energy’s acquisition of substantially all of Lubbock’s oil and gas properties (the “Lubbock Acquisition”)<br> for aggregate consideration of approximately $21.4 million, based on the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock<br> on January 5, 2022 (the “closing date”), consisting of (i) $125,000 of cash (the “Lubbock Unadjusted<br> Cash Purchase Price”) and (ii) 6,568,828 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Lubbock<br> Unadjusted Equity Consideration”). The Lubbock Unadjusted Cash Purchase Price is subject to certain customary closing adjustments<br> set forth in the Lubbock purchase agreement.
U.S.<br> Energy’s acquisition of substantially all of Synergy’s oil and gas properties (the “Synergy Acquisition”)<br> for aggregate consideration of approximately $21.4 million, based on the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock<br> on the closing date, consisting of (i) $125,000 of cash (the “Synergy Unadjusted Cash Purchase Price”) and (ii)<br> 6,546,384 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Synergy Unadjusted Equity Consideration”).<br> The Synergy Unadjusted Cash Purchase Price is subject to certain customary closing adjustments set forth in the Synergy purchase<br> agreement.
U.S.<br> Energy’s acquisition of certain of Sage Road’s oil and gas properties (the “Sage Road Acquisition”<br> and, together with the Lubbock Acquisition and the Synergy Acquisition, the “Acquisitions”) for aggregate consideration<br> of approximately $26.4 million, based on the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on January 5, 2022 (the<br> preliminary valuation date), consisting of (i) $1.0 million of cash (the “Sage Road Unadjusted Cash Purchase Price”),<br> (ii) 6,790,524 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Sage Road Unadjusted Equity Consideration”),<br> (iii) the assumption of $3.3 million of debt, and (iv) the novation of derivative contracts in a liability position of $3.1 million.<br> The Sage Road Unadjusted Cash Purchase Price is subject to certain customary closing adjustments set forth in the Sage Road purchase<br> agreement.

Certain of Lubbock’s, Synergy’s and Sage Road’s historical amounts have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation of U.S. Energy. Additionally, adjustments have been made to Lubbock’s, Synergy’s and Sage Road’s historical financial information to remove certain assets and liabilities retained by Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road, respectively.

The assets, liabilities and results of operations presented herein as relating to the Acquired Assets were derived from the historical financial statements of the Acquired Assets included in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Current Report”).

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statement data should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 (unaudited), included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2021 and the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2021; and the unaudited financial statements of the Sellers for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the audited financial statements of the Sellers for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, each included in this Current Report.

The pro forma financial information has been prepared based on information currently available to us, using assumptions that our management believes are reasonable. The pro forma financial information does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the Acquisitions had taken place on the dates specified. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved in the future. The pro forma financial information includes certain reclassifications to conform the historical results of operations of the Acquired Assets to our results of operations. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been made.

The pro forma adjustments are based on preliminary estimates, available information, and certain assumptions, all as more fully described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma financial statements.

Note1. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet


Adjustmentsto the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021

Reclassification& Elimination Adjustments

The following adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 to reclassify certain of Lubbock’s, Synergy’s and Sage Road’s historical amounts to conform to the historical presentation of U.S. Energy and to eliminate certain assets and liabilities retained by Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road:

a) Represents<br> the elimination of certain assets and liabilities retained by Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road.
b) Represents<br> a reclassification of $14.4 million and $1.6 million from Llano’s oil and natural gas properties under the successful efforts<br> method of accounting to evaluated and unevaluated properties under the full cost method of accounting, respectively, and a reclassification<br> of $25.1 million and $3.0 million from Synergy’s oil and natural gas properties under the successful efforts method of accounting<br> to evaluated and unevaluated properties under the full cost method of accounting, respectively.
c) Represents<br> a reclassification of $11.8 million and $15.8 million from Llano’s and Synergy’s accumulated depreciation, depletion,<br> amortization and impairment under the successful efforts method of accounting, respectively, to accumulated depletion and impairment<br> under the full cost method of accounting.

TransactionAccounting Adjustments

The Acquisitions will be accounted for as a single transaction because they were entered into at the same time and in contemplation of one another and form a single transaction designed to achieve an overall economic effect. The Acquisitions were accounted for as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets. The consideration paid was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. All transaction costs associated with the Acquisitions was capitalized. The allocation of the preliminary estimated purchase price is based upon management’s estimates of and assumptions related to the fair value of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed as of January 5, 2022 using currently available information. Due to the fact that the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final purchase price allocation and the resulting effect on financial position and results of operation may materially differ from the pro forma amounts included herein. The Company expects to finalize its allocation of the purchase consideration as soon as practicable.

The preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

Preliminary Allocation
(in thousands)
Estimated consideration:
Cash (including preliminary closing adjustments of $964,000) $ 2,214
Common stock 64,694
Transaction costs 1,300
Total estimated consideration $ 68,208
Preliminary allocation to assets acquired:
Evaluated properties acquired as of September 30, 2021 $ 87,484
Preliminary allocation to liabilities assumed:
Accrued liabilities $ 1,448
Long-term debt 3,336
Commodity derivative 3,766
Asset retirement obligations 10,726
Total preliminary allocation to liabilities assumed as of September 30, 2021 $ 19,276

The following adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 to reflect the Acquisitions:

d) Represents<br> the allocation of the estimated fair value of consideration transferred of $2.2 million of cash (including preliminary closing adjustments<br> of $964,000), $64.7 million of common stock (based on the closing price of U.S. Energy’s common stock as of January 5, 2022)<br> and $1.3 million of estimated transaction costs to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the following allocation adjustments:
$57.2<br> million increase in Lubbock’s, Synergy’s and Sage Road’s book basis of property, plant and equipment to reflect<br> them at allocated value,
--- ---
$11.2<br> million decrease in historical asset retirement obligations to reflect them at fair value, and
$0.3<br> million decrease in long-term debt to reflect the amount assumed from Sage Road.
e) Reflects<br> the elimination of Lubbock’s, Synergy’s and Sage Road’s historical accumulated depreciation and impairment balances<br> against gross properties and equipment.
--- ---
f) Reflects<br> the elimination of Lubbock’s, Synergy’s and Sage Road’s historical equity balances.

U.S. Energy will recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between historical cost basis and tax basis of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Based on estimates of the temporary differences, a net deferred tax asset of approximately $2.7 million will be offset by a full valuation allowance. The full valuation allowance was established based on the Company’s assessment of the significant uncertainty that exists with respect to the future realization of the deferred tax asset in accordance with ASC 740, and as a result, there are no deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities reflected in the pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

Note2. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations


Adjustmentsto the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021

The following adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to reflect the Acquisitions:

a) Represents<br> adjustments to eliminate the effects of assets and liabilities retained by Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road and not associated with<br> the oil and natural gas properties acquired.
b) Represents<br> a reclassification of $12.5 million and $1.0 million to oil revenue and natural gas and liquids revenue, respectively, from Lubbock’s,<br> Synergy’s, Llano’s, and Woodford’s oil and gas revenue to conform to U.S. Energy’s presentation.
c) Reflects<br> adjustment to depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization expense resulting from the change in basis of property, plant and<br> equipment acquired and the asset retirement obligations assumed.
d) Reflects<br> 19.9 million shares of U.S. Energy common stock issued to Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road as a portion of the consideration for the<br> Acquisitions.

The Company has not reflected any estimated tax benefit related to the Acquisitions in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 because the Company historically maintains a valuation allowance against any potential deferred tax assets.



Adjustmentsto the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020

The following adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 to reflect the Acquisitions:

a) Represents<br> adjustments to eliminate the effects of assets and liabilities retained by Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road and not associated with<br> the oil and natural gas properties acquired.
b) Represents<br> a reclassification of $7.8 million and $0.2 million to oil revenue and natural gas and liquids revenue, respectively, from Lubbock’s,<br> Synergy’s, Llano’s, and Woodford’s oil and gas revenue to conform to U.S. Energy’s presentation.
c) Reflects<br> adjustment to depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization expense resulting from the change in basis of property, plant and<br> equipment acquired and the asset retirement obligations assumed.
d) Reflects<br> adjustment to impairment expense resulting from the application of the ceiling test pursuant to the rules governing full cost accounting<br> and due to the change from Synergy’s and Llano’s historical accounting under successful efforts to conform to U.S. Energy’s<br> presentation under full cost. The ceiling test takes into account the change in basis of the oil and gas properties acquired and<br> reserves and historical prices determined using SEC guidelines at the time of each historical ceiling test.
e) Reflects<br> 19.9 million shares of U.S. Energy common stock issued to Lubbock, Synergy and Sage Road as a portion of the consideration for the<br> Acquisitions.

The Company has not reflected any estimated tax benefit related to the Acquisitions in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021, because the Company historically maintains a valuation allowance against any potential deferred tax assets.
