| SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON OIL AND NATURAL GAS OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED) | 25. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON OIL AND NATURAL GAS OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED)
The Company is engaged in the acquisition, development, and production of crude oil and, to a lesser extent, natural gas, with operations conducted exclusively within the United States.
The Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of its proved oil and gas reserves in 2025. Accordingly, the Company had proved reserves at December 31, 2024.
Net Proved Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities
Proved reserves are those quantities of crude oil and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are reserves expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves are reserves expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion.
The Company’s proved reserves were estimated by an independent petroleum engineer, in accordance with the definitions and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and ASC Topic 932. The reserve estimates are based on a 12-month unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Cushing benchmark price for each month during 2025, which equaled $66.01 per barrel, held constant over the life of the properties. No economic value has been assigned to associated natural gas.
The following table presents changes in the Company’s estimated proved reserves. As of December 31, 2025, none of the Company’s total proved reserves were classified as proved developed non-producing.
Proved reserves by category at December 31, 2025 where:
Capitalized Oil and Natural Gas Costs
The aggregate capitalized costs relating to the Company’s oil and gas producing activities, with applicable accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization, and impairment, are as follows at December 31, 2025:
Costs Incurred in Oil and Natural Gas Activities
The Company’s costs incurred in oil and gas property acquisition, exploration, and development activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 are summarized below:
Results of Operations from Oil and Natural Gas Producing Activities
The Company’s results of operations from oil and gas producing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 are presented below. These results exclude corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense, and other items not directly associated with oil and gas producing activities.
Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is based on the unweighted arithmetic average, first-day-of-the-month price for the rolling 12-month period. The projections should not be viewed as realistic estimates of future cash flows, nor should the “standardized measure” be interpreted as representing current value to the Company. Material revisions to estimates of proved reserves may occur in the future; development and production of the reserves may not occur in the periods assumed; actual prices realized are expected to vary significantly from those used; and actual costs may vary.
The following table sets forth the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2025:
The changes in the Standardized Measure for the year ended December 31, 2025 are presented below. Because the Company had no proved oil and gas reserves at December 31, 2024, the activity in 2025 reflects (i) the acquisition of substantially all of the Company’s proved reserves in 2025, presented as a purchase of reserves in place; (ii) the sale of oil produced during the period, net of associated production costs; (iii) the accretion of the discount on the acquired Standardized Measure during the remainder of the year; and (iv) the recognition of the related future income tax expense.
Principal changes in the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s proved reserves are as follows:
