Organization and General
EON Resources, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on December 9, 2020. The Company was a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act,” as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”).
The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on February 10, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). On February 15, 2022, the Company consummated the IPO of 7,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit. Additionally, the underwriter fully exercised its option to purchase 1,125,000 additional Units. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 505,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit generating proceeds of $5,050,000 in a private placement to HNRAC Sponsors, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”) and EF Hutton (formerly Kingswood Capital Markets) (“EF Hutton”).
The Sponsor and other parties, purchased, in the aggregate, 505,000 units (“Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement which included a share of common stock and warrant to purchase three quarters of one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments (“Private Placement Warrants” and together, the “Private Placement”) that occurred immediately prior to the Public Offering.
Effective November 15, 2023, the Company completed its business combination. Through its subsidiary Pogo Resources, LLC, a Texas limited liability Company (“Pogo” or “Pogo Resources”) and its subsidiary LH Operating, LLC, a Texas limited liability company “(“LHO”), the Company is an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition, development, exploration, and production of oil and natural gas properties in the Permian Basin. The Permian Basin is located in west Texas and southeastern New Mexico and is characterized by high oil and liquids-rich natural gas content, multiple vertical and horizontal target horizons, extensive production histories, long-lived reserves and historically high drilling success rates. The Company’s properties are in the Grayburg-Jackson Field (“GJF”) in Eddy County, New Mexico, and the South Justis Field (“SJF”) in Lea County, New Mexico, which are both sub-areas of the Permian Basin. The Company focuses exclusively on vertical development drilling.
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its stockholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.
Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination. On May 11, 2023, in connection with the stockholder vote for the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, a total of 4,115,597 Public Shares for an aggregate redemption amount of $43,318,207 were redeemed from the Trust Account by the stockholders of the Company. On November 15, 2023, a total of 3,323,707 Public Shares were redeemed for an aggregate redemption amount of $12,346,791. As a result of these redemptions of common stock, the Company recognized an estimated liability for the excise tax of $474,837, included in Accrued liabilities and other on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet pursuant to the 1% excise tax under the IR Act partially offset by issuance of common stock subsequent to the redemptions. The liability does not impact the consolidated statements of operations and is offset against accumulated deficit, and had a balance of $474,837 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, included in Accrued Liabilities and Other on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Going Concern Considerations
At December 31, 2025, the Company had $375,036 in cash and a working capital deficit of $21,814,454. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The Company had negative cash flow from operations of $7,645,418 for the year ended December 31, 2025, and positive cash flows from operations of $3,700,686 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, management plans to alleviate this substantial doubt in the future by improving profitability through streamlining costs, maintaining active hedge positions for its proven reserve production, and the issuance of additional shares of Class A Common Stock under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. The Company has a three-year Common Stock Purchase Agreement with a maximum funding limit of $150,000,000 that can fund the Company operations and production growth, and be used to reduce liabilities of the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Company issued 14,770,000 shares under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement in exchange for cash proceeds of $8,502,252. As of December 31, 2025 and as of the date of this filing, the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |
