UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Acquisition of the Pradera Fuego Properties

 

On September 3, 2025, Royale Energy, Inc. (“Royale” or the “Company”), through its consolidated subsidiary, Royale Energy Funds, Inc., completed the acquisition of certain non-operated working and revenue interests in producing oil and natural gas properties located in Ector County, Texas (the “Pradera Fuego Acquisition Properties”) from Pradera Fuego LP, pursuant to assignment and conveyance agreements entered into on that date (“the Transaction”). The effective date of the Transaction was July 1, 2025.

 

The Pradera Fuego Acquisition Properties consist of non-operated working and net revenue interests in seven gross (.19 net) producing horizontal wells and approximately 382.9 net acres of associated leasehold acreage within the Pradera Fuego project. The aggregate consideration for the Transaction was $1.5 million, paid in cash. The Transaction was funded through a combination of cash on hand and debt; in connection with the closing, the Company increased its existing note payable by $500,000, with the remainder of the purchase price funded from available cash (together, the “Related Financing”). Prior to the Transaction, Royale held working and revenue interests in certain wells within the Pradera Fuego project.

 

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Royale and the historical Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses of the Pradera Fuego Acquisition Properties, which are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.

 

The Transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), as substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired is concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets and the acquired interests do not constitute a business as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). For purposes of the financial statement requirements of the SEC, the Transaction is treated as a business acquisition under Rule 3-05 and Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 was prepared as if the Transaction and the Related Financing had occurred on June 30, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024 were prepared as if the Transaction and the Related Financing had occurred on January 1, 2024.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect the following pro forma adjustments related to the Transaction, based on available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable:

 

the Transaction and the Related Financing, including the additional borrowings incurred to fund a portion of the purchase price;

 

the allocation of the purchase price to the oil and gas properties acquired;

 

the asset retirement obligation assumed in connection with the acquired interests;

 

depreciation, depletion and amortization on the acquired oil and gas properties, computed under the unit-of-production method; and

 

the estimated income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments.

 

Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read together with the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. In the Company’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the pro forma information have been made.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to represent what the Company’s financial position or results of operations would have been had the Transaction and the Related Financing actually been consummated on the dates assumed, nor does it purport to project the Company’s financial position or results of operations for any future period. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not reflect any synergies, cost savings, operational efficiencies, or integration costs that may result from the Transaction.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained in Royale’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the historical Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses of the Pradera Fuego Acquisition Properties and the accompanying notes thereto filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A of which this Exhibit 99.3 is a part.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA Condensed combined FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented to illustrate the effect of Royale Energy, Inc.’s (“Royale” or the “Company”) acquisition of additional non-operated working and revenue interests in the Pradera Fuego project as if the transaction had occurred on January 1, 2024.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent the actual financial position or results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisition been completed on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future results.

 

Note 2 – Description of the Transaction

 

On September 3, 2025, Royale completed the acquisition of certain non-operated working and revenue interests in seven gross (.19 net) producing oil and gas wells and approximately 382.9 net acres of leasehold acreage located in Ector County, Texas (the “Acquired Properties”). The acquisition had an effective date of July 1, 2025.

 

The aggregate purchase price recorded by Royale and its consolidated subsidiary was $1.5 million, paid in cash. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded an increase in its asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) of $8,384.

 

Note 3 – Pro Forma Adjustments

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements include only transaction accounting adjustments (“TAAs”) that are:

 

directly attributable to the acquisition,

 

factually supportable, and

 

expected to have a continuing impact on the Company.

 

No management adjustments, including anticipated synergies, cost savings, operational efficiencies, or integration costs, have been included.

 

Note 4 – Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments

 

The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 reflects the following adjustments:

 

(a)Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1 million, reflecting the cash consideration paid at closing.

 

(b)Oil and gas properties increased by $1.5 million, representing the purchase price allocated to the Acquired Properties.

 

(c)Asset retirement obligation increased by $8,384, representing the Company’s proportionate share of plugging and abandonment obligations assumed.

 

(d)In August 2025, in connection with the acquisition, the Company increased its existing note payable by $500,000. The remainder of the purchase price was funded using existing cash and working capital.

 

Note 5 – Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations Adjustments

 

(a) Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization (“DD&A”)

 

Depreciation, depletion and amortization was calculated using the unit-of-production method under the successful efforts method of accounting, and DD&A was adjusted to reflect the relative fair values and production volumes attributable to the acquired properties Pro forma DD&A was calculated using the unit-of-production method, based on:

 

(b) Interest Expense

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024 reflect an adjustment to interest expense to give effect to the borrowings incurred to finance the Pradera Fuego Acquisition as if those borrowings had been outstanding since January 1, 2024, the date as of which the transaction is assumed to have occurred. The adjustment represents the amount of interest that would have been incurred during the respective periods presented on the additional borrowings used to fund a portion of the purchase price.

 

A 1/8 percent variance in the effective interest rate on the borrowings used to finance the Pradera Fuego Acquisition would result in a change in interest expense of approximately $313 and $625 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and for the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Note 6 – Income Taxes

 

Income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments have been calculated using the Company’s estimated combined statutory tax rate of approximately 24%.

 

The Company maintains a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the pro forma tax adjustments do not result in a material cash tax impact.

 

Note 7 – Transaction Costs

 

The Company did not incur material transaction costs in connection with the acquisition. Any transaction costs incurred would have been capitalized as part of the cost of the Pradera Fuego Acquired Properties in accordance with ASC 805-50 and are excluded from the pro forma financial information.

Note 8 – Supplemental Pro Forma Oil and Natural Gas Reserves Information

 

The following estimated unaudited pro forma oil and natural gas reserves information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the transaction been consummated on January 1, 2024, and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors. The reserve information for the Company is based on proved reserve reports prepared in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) rules on oil and natural gas reserve estimation and disclosures. Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc prepared the Company’s proved reserve reports as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. An explanation of the underlying methodology applied to the Company’s reserve information, as required by SEC regulations, can be found within the Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. Reserve information for the Pradera Fuego Acquisition was prepared by the Company, based upon the Company’s independent reserve report for the same periods. The following tables set forth the estimated unaudited pro forma combined proved develop and undeveloped reserves information as of December 31, 2024, along with a summary of changes in quantities of remaining proved reserves during the year ended December 31, 2024.
