Congress has considered legislation to reduce emissions of GHGs, including methane, a primary component of natural gas, and carbon dioxide, a byproduct of the burning of natural gas. Addressing GHG emissions with legislation on emissions fees could increase operating costs within the oil and gas industry.
Drilling and operating activities are high risk activities that subject us to a variety of factors that we cannot control. These factors include availability of workover and drilling rigs, well blowouts, cratering, explosions, fires, formations with abnormal pressures, pollution, releases of toxic gases and other environmental hazards and risks.
These factors include availability of workover and drilling rigs, well blowouts, cratering, explosions, fires, formations with abnormal pressures, pollution, releases of toxic gases and other environmental hazards and risks. Any of these operating hazards could result in substantial losses to us.
Lower prices may also reduce the amount of crude oil and natural gas that can be produced economically. Thus, we may experience material increases or decreases in reserve quantities solely as a result of price changes and not as a result of drilling or well performance.
Thus, we may experience material increases or decreases in reserve quantities solely as a result of price changes and not as a result of drilling or well performance. Changes in oil and gas prices impact both estimated future net revenue and the estimated quantity of proved reserves.
In addition, certain cyber incidents, such as surveillance, may remain undetected for an extended period. Our systems for protecting against cyber security risks may not be sufficient. As cyber incidents continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to cyber incidents.

Numerous factors may influence local pricing, such as refinery capacity, pipeline capacity and specifications, upsets in the midstream or downstream sectors of the industry, trade restrictions and governmental regulations. Additionally, insufficient pipeline capacity, lack of demand in any given operating area or other factors may cause the differential to increase in a particular area compared with other producing areas.
Numerous factors may influence local pricing, such as refinery capacity, pipeline capacity and specifications, upsets in the midstream or downstream sectors of the industry, trade restrictions and governmental regulations such as policies of the Trump Administration.
During fiscal 2024, differentials averaged $2.68 per Bbl of oil and ($0.15) per Mcf of gas. Increases in the differential between the benchmark prices for oil and gas and the wellhead price we receive could significantly reduce our revenues and our cash flow from operations.

Changes in oil and gas prices impact both estimated future net revenue and the estimated quantity of proved reserves.
Added
Our results of operations may be negatively impacted by current global events, including the imposition of tariffs.
Removed
The United States and certain countries in Europe and Asia are facing economic struggles or slowing economic growth. If these conditions worsen, combined with a decline in economic growth in other parts of the world, there could be a significant adverse effect on global financial markets and commodity prices.
Added
Our business, financial condition and future results are subject to political and economic risks and uncertainties, including volatility in the political, legal and regulatory environments as a result of the change in U.S. presidential administration and instability resulting from civil unrest, political demonstrations, mass strikes or armed conflict or other crises in crude oil or natural gas producing areas such as the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Iran conflict.
Removed
In addition, continued hostilities in the Middle East and the occurrence or threat of terrorist attacks in the United States or other countries could adversely affect the global economy.
Added
Escalating trade tensions, particularly between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico, China and other countries, may lead to the imposition of tariffs and trade restrictions. Our operators could face unanticipated costs and competition for materials and components to continue their current drilling plans.
Removed
Global or national health concerns may adversely affect the Company by (i) reducing demand for its oil, NGLs and gas because of reduced global or national economic activity, (ii) impairing its supply chain (for example, by limiting manufacturing of materials used in operations) and (iii) affecting the health of its workforce, rendering employees unable to work or travel.
Added
In addition, the current U.S. presidential administration has signaled it will encourage increased domestic production of crude oil, which could lead to falling crude oil and natural gas prices. Changes in environmental laws could increase our operators’ costs and adversely impact our business, financial condition and cash flows. In recent years the U.S.
Removed
Deteriorating economic climate in the United States or abroad due to inflation, rising interest rates or otherwise, demand for petroleum products could diminish or stagnate, which could depress the prices at which the Company could sell its oil, NGLs and gas, affect the ability of the Company’s vendors, suppliers and customers to continue operations and ultimately decrease the Company’s cash flows and profitability.
Added
Fluids resulting from crude oil and natural gas production, consisting primarily of salt-water, are disposed by injection in belowground disposal wells. In recent years, state and federal regulatory agencies have focused on a possible connection between fluid injection and increased seismic activity.
Removed
In addition, reduced worldwide demand for debt and equity securities issued by oil and gas companies may make it more difficult for the Company to raise capital to fund its operations or refinance its debt obligations. Changes in environmental laws could increase our operators’ costs and adversely impact our business, financial condition and cash flows.
Added
The Texas Railroad Commission has suspended or limited new well permits for salt water disposal wells, particularly in the Permian Basin. Increased regulation on the treatment and disposal of fluids could increase operating costs and curtail economical drilling. Lower oil and gas prices and other factors may cause us to record ceiling test writedowns.
Removed
President Biden has indicated that he is supportive of, and has issued executive orders promoting various programs and initiatives designed to, among other things, curtail climate change, control the release of methane from new and existing oil and natural gas operations, and decarbonize electric generation and the transportation sector. In recent years the U.S.
Added
Additionally, insufficient pipeline capacity, lack of demand in any given operating area or other factors may cause the differential to increase in a particular area compared with other producing areas. During fiscal 2025, differentials averaged $2.79 per Bbl of oil and ($0.30) per Mcf of gas.
Removed
For example, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which appropriates significant federal funding for renewable energy initiatives and, for the first time ever, imposes a fee on GHG emissions from certain facilities, was signed into law in August 2022.
Added
Changes in effective tax rates or laws could adversely impact our results of operations. Our future effective tax rates could be subject to volatility or adversely affected by a number of factors, including: changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities; tax effects of stock-based compensation; or changes in tax laws, regulations or interpretations thereof.
Removed
The emissions fee and funding provisions of the law could increase operating costs within the oil and gas industry and accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels, which could in turn adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Added
For example, in previous years, legislation has been proposed to eliminate or defer certain key U.S. federal income tax deductions historically available to crude oil and natural gas exploration and production companies.
Removed
Governmental, scientific and public concern over the threat of climate change arising from GHG emissions has resulted in increasing political risks in the United States, including climate change related pledges made by certain candidates elected to public office.
Added
Such proposed changes have included: a repeal of the percentage depletion allowance for crude oil and natural gas properties; the elimination of deductions for intangible drilling and exploration and development costs; the elimination of the deduction for certain production activities; and an extension of the amortization period for certain geological and geophysical expenditures.
Removed
President Biden has issued several executive orders focused on addressing climate change, including items that may impact costs to produce, or demand for, oil and gas. Lower oil and gas prices and other factors may cause us to record ceiling test writedowns. Lower oil and gas prices increase the risk of ceiling limitation write-downs.
Added
The passage of any legislation as a result of these proposals or other similar changes in U.S. federal income tax laws that alter, eliminate or defer these or other tax deductions utilized within the industry could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Removed
Any of these operating hazards could result in substantial losses to us.
Added
As cyber incidents continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to cyber incidents. 14 The loss of our chief executive officer or president could adversely impact our ability to execute our business strategy.
Removed
Our effective tax rate may change in the future, which could adversely impact us.
Removed
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”) significantly changed the U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. corporations, including by reducing the U.S. corporate tax rate, limiting interest deductions and certain deductions for executive compensation, permitting immediate expensing of certain capital expenditures, and revising the rules governing net operating losses.
Removed
The TCJA remains unclear in some respects and continues to be subject to potential amendments and technical corrections. The U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have issued significant guidance since the TCJA was enacted, interpreting the TCJA and clarifying some the uncertainties, and are continuing to issue new guidance.
Removed
There are still significant aspects of the TCJA for which further guidance is expected, and both the timing and contents of any such future guidance are uncertain. Further, changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws are proposed regularly and there can be no assurance that, if enacted, any such changes would not have an adverse impact on us.
Removed
For example, President Biden has suggested the reversal or modification of some portions of the TCJA and certain of these proposals, if enacted, could increase our effective tax rate. There can be no assurance that any such proposed changes will be introduced as legislation or, if introduced, later enacted and, if enacted, what form such enacted legislation would take.
Removed
Such changes could potentially have retroactive effect. In light of these factors, there can be no assurance that our effective tax rate will not change in future periods. If the effective tax rates were to increase as a result of the future legislation, our business could be adversely affected.

Oil and Natural Gas Reserves In accordance with current SEC rules, the average prices used in computing reserves at March 31, 2024 were $76.88 per bbl of oil compared to $92.02 in 2023, a decrease of 16%, and $2.75 per mcf of natural gas compared to $5.68 in 2023, a decrease of 52%, such prices are based on the 12-month unweighted arithmetic average market prices for sales of oil and natural gas on the first calendar day of each month during fiscal 2024.
As of March 31, 2025, we had interests in approximately 7,500 gross (26.4 net) producing oil and gas wells and owned leasehold mineral, royalty and other interests in approximately 662,000 gross (2,712 net) acres. 16 Oil and Natural Gas Reserves In accordance with current SEC rules, the average prices used in computing reserves at March 31, 2025 were $73.79 per bbl of oil compared to $76.88 in 2024, a decrease of 4%, and $2.14 per mcf of natural gas compared to $2.75 in 2024, a decrease of 22%, such prices are based on the 12-month unweighted arithmetic average market prices for sales of oil and natural gas on the first calendar day of each month during fiscal 2025.
During the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, we had a working or royalty interest in the development of 43 wells converting reserves of approximately 62,000 BOE from proved undeveloped to proved developed producing with capital cost of approximately $940,000.
During the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, we had a working or royalty interest in the development of 27 wells, converting reserves of approximately 84,000 BOE from proved undeveloped to proved developed producing with a capital cost of approximately $645,000. 18 Oil and gas prices significantly impact the calculation of the PV-10 and the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows.
Such downward revisions are primarily attributable to a decrease in crude oil and natural gas prices and partially the result of reserves written off due to the five-year limitation and the change in the timing of new development.
Such downward revisions are primarily attributable to reserves written off due to the five-year limitation and the change in the timing of new development. The reserves written off were primarily in Lea County, New Mexico due to a change in the timing of development in wells in which we own a working interest.
