GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




NOTE 1—Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies


Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (“Goodrich” and, together with its subsidiary, Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. (the “Subsidiary”), “we,” “our,” or the “Company”) is an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas on properties primarily in (i) Northwest Louisiana and East Texas, which includes the Haynesville Shale Trend, (ii) Southwest Mississippi and Southeast Louisiana, which includes the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale Trend (“TMS”), and (iii) South Texas, which includes the Eagle Ford Shale Trend.


Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and accordingly, certain information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”) has been condensed or omitted. This information should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2018. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or for any interim period. Certain data in prior periods’ financial statements have been adjusted to conform to the presentation of the current period.


Fresh Start Accounting—We applied fresh start accounting upon emergence from bankruptcy on October 12, 2016 (the “Effective Date”). This resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. Upon adoption of fresh start accounting, our assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of the Effective Date. As a result, our consolidated statements of operations subsequent to the Effective Date are not comparable to our consolidated statement of operations prior to the Effective Date. Our consolidated financial statements and related footnotes are presented in a format that illustrates the lack of comparability between amounts presented on or after the Effective Date and dates prior. Our financial results for future periods following the application of fresh-start accounting will be different from historical trends and the differences may be material.

All references made to “Successor” or "Successor Company” relate to the Company on and subsequent to the Effective Date. References to the “Successor” in this quarterly report relate to the periods after the Effective Date, which includes the first three quarters of 2017. References to "Predecessor" or “Predecessor Company” in this quarterly report refer to the Company prior to the Effective Date, which includes the first three quarters of 2016.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation.


Certain data in prior periods’ financial statements have been adjusted to conform to the presentation of the current period. We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of this filing.

Use of Estimates— Our management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP.


Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, demand deposit accounts and temporary cash investments with maturities of ninety days or less at the date of purchase.


Restricted Cash—As of September 30, 2017, the Company had $0.6 million in restricted cash held as collateral for the issuance of a letter of credit in connection with a natural gas gathering agreement.

Accounts Payable—Accounts payable consisted of the following amounts as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2016:2018:

Property and Equipment—Under US GAAP, two acceptable methods of accounting for oil and natural gas properties are allowed. These are the Successful Efforts Method and the Full Cost Method. Entities engaged in the production of oil and natural gas have the option of selecting either method for application in the accounting for their properties. The principal differences between the two methods are in the treatment of exploration costs, the computation of Depreciation, Depletiondepreciation, depletion and Amortizationamortization (“DD&A”) expense and the assessment of impairment of oil and natural gas properties. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, weWe have elected to adopt the Full Cost Method.


Method of accounting. We believe that the true cost of developing a “portfolio” of reserves should reflect both successful and unsuccessful attempts at exploration and production. Application of the Full Cost Method better reflects the true economics of exploring for and developing our oil and gas reserves.

Under the Full Cost Method, we capitalize all costs associated with acquisitions, exploration, development and estimated abandonment costs. We capitalize internal costs that can be directly identified with the acquisition of leasehold, as well as drilling and completion activities, but do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Unevaluated property costs are excluded from the amortization base until we make a determination as to the existence of proved reserves on the respective property or impairment. We review our unevaluated properties at the end of each quarter to determine whether the costs should be reclassified to proved oil and natural gas properties and thereby subject to DD&A and the full cost ceiling test. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019 and 2018, we transferred $5.8$0.1 million and $18.6 million, respectively, from unevaluated properties to proved oil and natural gas properties. Our sales of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to net proved oil and natural gas properties with no gain or loss recognized, unless the adjustment would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves.


We

Under the Full Cost Method, we amortize our investment in oil and natural gas properties through DD&A expense using the units of production (the “UOP”) method. An amortization rate is calculated based on total proved reserves converted to equivalent thousand cubic feet of natural gas (“Mcfe”) as the denominator and the net book value of evaluated oil and gas asset together with the estimated future development cost of the proved undeveloped reserves as the numerator. The rate calculated per Mcfe is applied against the periods' production also converted to Mcfe to arrive at the periods' DD&A expense.

Depreciation of furniture, fixtures and equipment, consisting of office furniture, computer hardware and software and leasehold improvements, is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which vary from three to five years.

Full Cost Ceiling Test—The Full Cost Method requires that at the conclusion of each financial reporting period, the present value of estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves (adjusted for hedges and excluding cash flows related to estimated abandonment costs), be compared to the net capitalized costs of proved oil and natural gas properties, net of related deferred taxes. This comparison is referred to as a "ceiling test"“ceiling test”. If the net capitalized costs of proved oil and natural gas properties exceed the estimated discounted future net cash flows from proved reserves, we are required to write-down the value of our oil and natural gas properties to the value of the discounted cash flows. Estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves are calculated based on a 12-month average pricing assumption.


There were no Full Cost Ceiling Test write-downs for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019 and 2018.

To determine if a field was impaired, we compared the carrying value of the field to the undiscounted future net cash flows by applying management’s estimates of proved reserves, future oil and natural gas prices, future production of oil and natural gas reserves and future operating costs over the economic life of the property. In addition, other factors such as probable and possible reserves were taken into consideration when justified by economic conditions and the availability of capital to develop proved undeveloped reserves. For each property determined to be impaired, we recognized an impairment loss equal to the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value of the field.

Fair value was estimated to be the present value of expected future net cash flows. Any impairment charge incurred was recorded in accumulated depletion, depreciation and amortization to reduce the carrying value of the field. Each part of this
calculation was subject to a large degree of judgment, including the determination of the fields’ estimated reserves, future cash
flows and fair value.

We had no impairment for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Fair Value 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 fair value of an asset should reflect its highest and best use by market participants, whether in-use or an in-exchange valuation premise. The fair value of a liability should reflect the risk of non-performance, which includes, among other things, our credit risk.


We use various methods, including the income approach and market approach, to determine the fair values of our financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which depend on a number of factors, including the availability of observable market data over the contractual term of the underlying instrument. For some of our instruments, the fair value is calculated based on directly observable market data or data available for similar instruments in similar markets. For other instruments, the fair value may be calculated based on these inputs as well as other assumptions related to estimates of future settlements of these instruments. We separate our financial instruments into three Levels (Levelslevels (levels 1, 2 and 3) based on our assessment of the availability of observable market data and the significance of non-observable data used to determine the fair value of our instruments. Our assessment of an instrument can change over time based on the maturity or liquidity of the instrument, which could result in a change in the classification of the instruments between Levels.


levels.

Each of these Levelslevels and our corresponding instruments classified by Levellevel are further described below:

Level 1 Inputs— unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. We have no Level 1 instruments;

Level 2 Inputs— quotes that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Included in this Levellevel are our Exit2017 Senior Credit Facility (as defined below) and commodity derivatives whose fair values are based on third-party quotes or available interest rate information and commodity pricing data obtained from third party pricing sources and our creditworthiness or that of our counterparties;counter-parties; and

Level 3 Inputs— unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations, based on our various assumptions and future commodity prices. Included in this Levellevel would be acquisitions and impairmentsour initial measurement of oil and natural gas properties, if any, and our asset retirement obligations.


As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2016,2018, the carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables represented fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Depreciation and Depletion—Depreciation and depletion of producing oil and natural gas properties is calculated using the units-of-production method. Proved developed reserves are used to compute unit rates for unamortized tangible and intangible development costs, and proved reserves are used for unamortized leasehold costs.

Depreciation of furniture, fixtures and equipment, consisting of office furniture, computer hardware and software and leasehold improvements, is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which vary from three to five years.

Asset Retirement Obligations—Asset retirement obligations are related to the abandonment and site restoration requirements that result from the exploration and development of our oil and natural gas properties. We record 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. Accretion expense is included in “Depreciation, depletion and amortization” on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 23.


The estimated fair value of the Company’s asset retirement obligations at inception is determined by utilizing the income approach by applying a credit-adjusted risk-free rate, which takes into account the Company’s credit risk, the time value of money, and the current economic state, to the undiscounted expected abandonment cash flows. Given the unobservable nature of the inputs, the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligations was classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.


Revenue Recognition—Oil and natural gas revenues are generally recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, whenupon delivery has occurred and title has transferred, and if collectability of the revenue is probable. Revenues from the production of crudeour produced oil and natural gas propertiesvolumes to our customers. We record revenue in whichthe month our production is delivered to the purchaser.

We record a liability or an asset for natural gas balancing when we have sold more or less than our working interest share of natural gas production, respectively.

Accounting standards related to derivative instruments and hedging activities require that all derivative instruments subject to the requirements of those standards be measured at fair value and recognized as assets or liabilities in the balance sheet. We offset the fair value of our asset and liability positions with the same counterpartycounter-party for each commodity type. Changes in fair value are required to be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. All of our realized gain or losses on our derivative contracts are the result of cash settlements. We have not designated any of our derivative contracts as hedges; accordingly, changes in fair value are reflected in earnings. See Note 78.

Income Taxes—We account for income taxes, as required, under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basesbasis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.


We recognize, as required, the financial statement benefit of an uncertain tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. See Note 67.


Net Income or Net Loss Per Common Share—Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholdersstock for each reporting period by the weighted-average numbershares of common sharesstock outstanding during the period.

See Note 56.


Commitments and Contingencies—Liabilities for loss contingencies, including environmental remediation costs, arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. Recoveries from third parties, when probable of realization, are separately recorded and are not offset against the related environmental liability. See Note 89.

For publicall entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for annualfiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2018.2019, including interim periods therein. We do not expect this ASU toare evaluating the expected impact these amendments will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements asstatements.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) along with other corresponding ASU's during the quarter using a modified retrospective approach. See Note 10 for further details regarding the adoption of the new lease guidance.

NOTE 2—Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2018, we currently mark to market alladopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and the series of related ASU's that followed under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (collectively, “Topic 606”).Topic 606 did not change our pattern of timing of revenue recognition. Under Topic 606, revenue is generally recognized upon delivery of our derivative positions; however,produced oil and natural gas volumes to our customers. Our customer sales contracts include oil and natural gas sales. Under Topic 606, each unit (Mcf or barrel) of commodity product represents a separate performance obligation which is sold at variable prices, determinable on a monthly basis. The pricing provisions of our contracts are primarily tied to a market index with certain adjustments based on factors such as delivery, product quality and prevailing supply and demand conditions in the geographic areas in which we operate. We allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation and recognize revenue upon delivery of the commodity product when the customer obtains control. Control of our produced natural gas volumes passes to our customers at specific metered points indicated in our natural gas contracts. Similarly, control of our produced oil volumes passes to our customers when the oil is measured either by a trucking oil ticket or by a meter when entering an oil pipeline. The Company has no control over the commodities after those points and the measurement at those points dictates the amount on which the customer's payment is based. Our oil and natural gas revenue streams include volumes burdened by royalty and non-operated working interests. Our revenues are recorded and presented on our financial statements net of the royalty and non-operated working interests. Our revenue stream does not include any payments for services or ancillary items other than sale of oil and natural gas.

We record revenue in the month our production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements and payments for our oil and natural gas sales may not be received for up to 60 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, we are evaluatingrequired to estimate the impactamount of this ASU should we chooseproduction delivered to utilize hedge accountingthe purchaser and the price that will be received for the sale of the product. We record any differences, which historically have not been significant, between the actual amounts ultimately received and the original estimates in the future.

be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. For public entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We plan to adopt this ASU on January 1, 2018 and believe the provisions of this ASU will be immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.

On November 17, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU is intended to reduce diversity in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows and requires that restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. For public entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and plan to adopt this standard when required for public companies.

 
On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments and affect all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows. For public entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted this standard in 2017 and anticipate no material impact on our consolidated financial statements until the fourth quarter of 2017, when the initial vestings of restricted stock issued under our Management Incentive Plan occur.

On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The key difference between the existing standards and ASU 2016-02 is the requirement for lessees to recognize on their balance sheet all lease contracts with lease terms greater than 12 months, including operating leases. Specifically, lessees are required to recognize on the balance sheet at lease commencement, both (i) a right-of-use asset, representing the lessee’s right to use the leased asset over the term of the lease, and (ii) a lease liability, representing the lessee’s contractual obligation to make lease payments over the term of the lease. For lessees, ASU 2016-02 requires classification of leases as either operating or finance leases, which are similar to the current operating and capital lease classifications. However, the distinction between these two classifications under the ASU does not relate to balance sheet treatment, but relates to treatment and recognition in the statements of income and cash flows. Lessor accounting is largely unchanged from current US GAAP. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, for public entities. Early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and assessing the impact it may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition requirements in US GAAP and will require entities to recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The new standard also requires disclosures that are sufficient to enable users to understand an entity’s nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). This update provides clarifications in the assessment of principal versus agent considerations in the new revenue standard. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The update reduces the potential for diversity in practice at initial application of Topic 606 and the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition and Derivatives and Hedging: Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting. This update rescinds certain SEC Staff Observer comments that are codified in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and Topic 932, Extractive Activities-Oil and Gas, effective upon adoption of Topic 606. These ASUs are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has not yet selected a transition method. The Company is currently analyzing the impact of Update 2014-09, and the related ASU's, to evaluate the impact of the new standard on its revenue contracts. The Company is considering its revenue contracts, reviewing for potential changes that may be needed to its accounting policies and evaluating the new disclosure requirements.  The Company expects to complete its evaluations of the impacts of the accounting and disclosure requirements in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Exit Credit Facility
On the Effective Date, upon consummation of the plan of reorganization, the Company entered into an Exit Credit Agreement (the “Exit Credit Agreement”) with the Subsidiary, as borrower (the “Borrower”), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (“the Administrative Agent”), and certain other lenders party thereto. Pursuant to the Exit Credit Agreement, the lenders party thereto agreed to provide the Borrower with a $20.0 million senior secured term loan credit facility (the “Exit Credit Facility”). As of September 30, 2017, we had $16.7 million outstanding on the Exit Credit Facility. On October 17, 2017, the Exit Credit Facility was paid off in full and replaced with a $250.0 million senior secured revolving facility with an initial borrowing base of $40.0 million with $16.7 million outstanding.
The maturity date of the Exit Credit Agreement was September 30, 2018, unless the Borrower notified the Administrative Agent that it intended to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2019, subject to certain conditions and the payment of a fee.

We recordedrecorded no income tax expense or benefit for either the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019 or 2018. We recorded a valuation allowance at December 31, 2016, which resulted in nofor our net deferred tax asset or liability appearing on our statement of financial position. at December 31, 2016. We recorded this valuation allowance at this date after an evaluation of all available evidence (including our recent history of net operating losses in 2016 and prior years)losses) that led to a conclusion that based upon the more-likely-than-not standard of the accounting literature, ourthese deferred tax assets were unrecoverable.The valuation allowance was $84.1 million as of December 31, 2018, which resulted in a net non-current deferred tax asset of $0.8 million appearing on our statement of financial position. The net $0.8 million deferred tax asset relates to Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) credits, which are expected to be fully refundable in tax years 2018 - 2021 regardless of the Company's regular tax liability. Considering the Company’s taxable income forecasts, our assessment of the realization of our deferred tax assets has not changed, and we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance for our net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2017.

Commodity Derivative Activity

We enter into swap contracts, costless collars or other derivative agreements from time to time to manage commodity price risk for a portion of our production. Our policy is that all derivatives are approved by the Hedging Committee of theour Board, and reviewed periodically by the Board.

Despite the measures taken by us to attempt to control price risk, we remain subject to price fluctuations for natural gas and crude oil sold in the spot market. Prices received for natural gas sold on the spot market are volatile due primarily to seasonality of demand and other factors beyond our control. Decreases in domestic crude oil and natural gas spot prices will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and quantities of reserves recoverable on an economic basis. We routinely exercise our contractual right to net realized gains against realized losses when settling with our financial counterparties.counter-parties. Neither our counterpartiescounter-parties nor we require any collateral upon entering into derivative contracts.

We lease our corporate office building in Houston, Texas. We recognize lease expense for this lease on a straight-line basis over the lease term. This operating lease is included in furniture, fixtures and equipment and other capital assets, accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The operating lease asset and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As this lease did not provide an implicit rate, we used a collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date, including lease term, in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease asset includes any lease payments made but excludes annual operating charges. Operating Leaseslease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and reported in general and administrative operating expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We have commitments under operatingalso entered into leases for certain vehicles and other equipment which are immaterial to our financial statements and have therefore not been recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


We have made in this report, and may from time to time otherwise make in other public filings, press releases and discussions with our management, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), concerning our operations, economic performance and financial condition. These forward-looking statements include information concerning future production and reserves, schedules, plans, timing of development, contributions from oil and natural gas properties, marketing and midstream activities, and also include those statements accompanied by or that otherwise include the words “may,” “could,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “target,” “goal,” “plans,” “objective,” “potential,” “should,” or similar expressions or variations on such expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. For such statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report, or if earlier, as of the date they were made; we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

These forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are not limited to, the following:


the market prices of oil and natural gas;

volatility in the commodity-futures market;

financial market conditions and availability of capital;

future cash flows, credit availability and borrowings;

sources of funding for exploration and development;

our financial condition;

our ability to repay our debt;

the securities, capital or credit markets;

planned capital expenditures;

future drilling activity;

uncertainties about the estimated quantities of our oil and natural gas reserves;

production;

hedging arrangements;

litigation matters;

pursuit of potential future acquisition opportunities;

general economic conditions, either nationally or in the jurisdictions in which we are doing business;

legislative or regulatory changes, including retroactive royalty or production tax regimes, hydraulic-fracturing regulation, drilling and permitting regulations, derivatives reform, changes in state and federal corporate taxes, environmental regulation, environmental risks and liability under federal, state and foreign and local environmental laws and regulations;

the impact of restrictive covenants in our debt agreements;

the creditworthiness of our financial counterpartiescounter-parties and operation partners; and

failure to satisfy our short- or long-term liquidity needs, including our inability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to obtain adequate financing to fund our capital expenditures and meet working capital needs; and

other factors discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other public filings, press releases and discussions with our management.

For additional information regarding known material factors that could cause our actual results to differ from projected results please read the rest of this report and Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2018.


Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (“Goodrich” and, together with its subsidiary, Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. (the "Subsidiary”), “we,” “our,” or the “Company”) is an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas on properties primarily in (i) Northwest Louisiana and East Texas, which includes the Haynesville Shale Trend, (ii) Southwest Mississippi and Southeast Louisiana, which includes the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale Trend (“TMS”), and (iii) South Texas, which includes the Eagle Ford Shale Trend.


We seek to increase shareholder value by growing our oil and natural gas reserves, production, revenues and cash flow from operating activities (“operating cash flow”). In our opinion, on a long term basis, growth in oil and natural gas reserves, cash flow and production on a cost-effective basis are the most important indicators of performance success for an independent oil and natural gas company.


We strive to increase our oil and natural gas reserves, production and cash flow through exploration and development activities. We develop an annual capital expenditure budget, which is reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) on a quarterly basis and revised throughout the year as circumstances warrant. We take into consideration our projected operating cash flow, commodity prices for oil and natural gas and externally available sources of financing, such as bank debt, asset divestitures, issuance of debt and equity securities, and strategic joint ventures, when establishing our capital expenditure budget.


We place primary emphasis on our operating cash flow in managing our business. Management considers operating cash flow a more important indicator of our financial success than other traditional performance measures such as net income because operating cash flow considers only the cash expenses incurred during the period and excludes the non-cash impact of unrealized hedging gains (losses), non-cash general and administrative expenses and impairments.


Our revenues and operating cash flow depend on the successful development of our inventory of capital projects with available capital, the volume and timing of our production, as well as commodity prices for oil and natural gas. Such pricing factors are largely beyond our control; however, we have historically employedemploy commodity hedging techniques in an attempt to minimize the volatility of short term commodity price fluctuations on our earnings and operating cash flow.


Emergence from Bankruptcy

    On April 15, 2016 (the “Petition Date”), we filed voluntary bankruptcy petitions seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”), to pursue a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Cases”). We filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking joint administration of the Chapter 11 Cases under the caption In re Goodrich Petroleum Corporation, et al. (Case No. 16-31975). Our joint plan of reorganization (the “Plan of Reorganization”) was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on September 28, 2016, and we emerged from bankruptcy on October 12, 2016 (the “Effective Date”).

Upon our emergence from bankruptcy, we adopted Fresh Start Accounting in accordance with the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 852, “Reorganizations”. This resulted in our becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. At that time, our assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of the Effective Date. The effects of the Plan of Reorganization and our application of fresh start accounting are reflected in our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016. The related adjustments were recorded in our consolidated statement of operations as reorganization items for the year to date period ending on the Effective Date.

The application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of our Plan of Reorganization resulted in our Consolidated Financial Statements on or after the Effective Date not being comparable with the Consolidated Financial Statements prior to that date. Our financial results for periods following our application of fresh start accounting will be different from historical trends, and the differences may be material.


All references made to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the Company on and subsequent to the Effective Date. References to the “Successor” in this quarterly report relate to the periods after the Effective Date, which includes the first three quarters of 2017. References to “Predecessor” or “Predecessor Company” in this quarterly report refer to the Company prior to the Effective Date, which includes the first three quarters of 2016.

On the Effective Date, to better reflect the true economics of our exploration and development of oil and natural gas reserves, we transitioned from the Successful Efforts Method of Accounting for oil and gas activities to the Full Cost Method of Accounting.

Results of Operations


In addition to adopting Fresh Start Accounting, the Successor also adopted the Full Cost Method of Accounting as of the Effective Date. Prior to the Effective Date, the Predecessor used the Successful Efforts Method of Accounting. The results of operations of the Successor and the Predecessor are not generally comparable nor are they individually comparable with prior periods. We believe however, that production volumes, oil and natural gas revenues, lease operating expenses and production and other taxes are generally comparable and consequently, unless otherwise indicated, the tables and discussions below include such comparisons between the Predecessor and the Successor for these operational items. We believe this presentation gives the reader a better understanding of our operational results in 2017.

The predecessor 2016 period results of operations (displayed below) reflect the period from January 1, 2016 to September 30, 2016.

The increases wereincrease was primarily driven by higherincreased natural gas production and higher realized oil and natural gas prices. The increase in natural gas production volumes is attributed to two operated Haynesville Shale Trend wells completed in the secondfirst quarter of 20172019 and the continued production of twofive operated and eight non-operated Haynesville Shale Trend wells completed in late 2016. Beginning in August 2016, we elected to take oursince the first quarter of 2018. The revenue increases were also offset by decreased oil production in-kind and market the majority of our non-operated Haynesville Shale Trend natural gas volumes resulting in an improvementlower realized oil prices in the prices we received on such natural gas volumes. Natural gas realized prices forfirst quarter of 2019 versus the prior year period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 included the netting of transportation and processing costs on such volumes that was discontinued upon taking our production in-kind.

Lease Operating Expense
Lease operating expense increased $0.2 million and $3.1 million duringmuch lower per unit LOE than the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively compared to the same periods in 2016. The increase is substantially attributed to an increase in workover expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, in addition to increased costs due to increased production for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. We incurred $3.1 million in workover cost for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and only $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as we curtailed such expenditures while in bankruptcy.

Production and Other Taxes

Production and other taxes includes severance and ad valorem taxes. Severance taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 were $0.1$0.4 million, and $0.9 million, respectively. Adad valorem taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was a credit ofMarch 31, 2019 were $0.3 million, which both remained unchanged from the prior year period.

Severance taxes decreased less than $0.1 million as a result of the receipt of refunds. Ad valorem taxes for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017 was $0.2 million. DuringMarch 31, 2019 as compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, production and other taxes included severance tax of $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively and ad valorem tax of $0.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively.


Severance taxes remained relatively flat for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, reflecting decreased oil production volumes directly offset by tax increases due to the expiration of the exemption on certain wellssame period in Mississippi and Louisiana. The State of Mississippi has enacted an exemption from the existing 6.0% severance tax for horizontal wells drilled after July 1, 2013 with production commencing before July 1, 2018 which is partially offset by a 1.3% local severance tax on such wells. The exemption is applicable until the earlier of (i) 30 months from the date of first sale of production or (ii) payout of the well. . The State of Louisiana has also enacted an exemption from the existing 12.5% severance tax on oil and from the $0.098 per Mcf (through June 30, 2017) and $0.11$0.111 per Mcf (from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018) and $0.122 per Mcf (starting on July 1, 2018) severance tax on natural gas for horizontal wells with production commencing after July 31, 1994. The exemption is applicable until the earlier of (i) 24 months from the date of first sale of production or (ii) payout of the well. The net revenuesAll of our drilled Haynesville Shale Trend wells in Northwest Louisiana are benefiting from our wells drilled in our TMS acreage in Southwestern Mississippi and Southeast Louisiana have been favorably impacted by these exemptions.this exemption.

Ad valorem tax between periods reflects refunds or tax credits received of $0.2 million and $0.5increased by less than $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,March 31, 2019 as wellcompared to the same period in 2018 due to adding wells offset by property values slightly decreasing. We expect ad valorem taxes to increase as our newly producing wells begin to be valued by the reduction in the assessed valuestaxing jurisdictions.

Our natural gas volumes thatfrom our operated wells generally carry less transportation cost per Mcf than from wells we take in-kind and pay directlydo not operate. Despite an increase in our operated natural gas production volumes between periods, our cost per Mcfe increased in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the transporter on non-operated Haynesville Shale Trendsame period in 2018.

We recorded this valuation allowance at this date after an evaluation of all available evidence (including our recent history of net operating losses in 2016 and prior years)losses) that led to a conclusion that based upon the more-likely-than-not standard of the accounting literature, ourthese deferred tax assets were unrecoverable.The valuation allowance was $84.1 million as of December 31, 2018, which resulted in a net non-current deferred tax asset of $0.8 million appearing on our statement of financial position. The net $0.8 million deferred tax asset relates to Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) credits, which are expected to be fully refundable in tax years 2018 - 2021 regardless of the Company's regular tax liability. Considering the Company’s taxable income forecasts, our assessment of the realization of our deferred tax assets has not changed, and we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance for our net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2017.

EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA/EBITDAXEBITDA is a supplemental non-United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (“US GAAP”) financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenderslenders and rating agencies. The Predecessor definedCompany defines Adjusted EBITDAXEBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income and similar tax, DD&A, exploration expense, share basedshare-based compensation expense and impairment of oil and natural gas properties. The Successor calculates Adjusted EBITDA in the same way, but EBITDA reflects the absence of exploration expense in the Full Cost Method of Accounting used by the Successor.properties (if any). In calculating Adjusted EBITDA/EBITDAX,EBITDA, gains/losses on reorganization and mark-to-market gains/losses on commodity derivatives not designated as hedges and net cash received or paid in settlement of derivative instruments are also excluded. Other excluded items include adjustments resulting from the accounting for operating leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, interest income gain on sale of assets, restructuring, reorganization and other expense.any extraordinary non-cash gains or losses. Adjusted EBITDA/EBITDAXEBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) as determined by US GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


Overview


Our primary sources of cash during the first ninethree months of 20172019 were cash on hand, and cash from operating activities.activities, net proceeds from borrowings on our 2017 Senior Credit Facility and proceeds from the sale of assets. We used cash primarily to fund capital expenditures. We currently plan to fund our operations and capital expenditures for the remainder of 20172019 through a combination of cash on hand, cash from operating activities and borrowing under our 2017 Senior Credit Facility (as defined below), althoughrevolving credit facility, although we may from time to time consider the funding alternatives described below.


On October 17, 2017, we entered into the Amended and Restated2017 Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, (“Credit Agreement”) with the Subsidiary, as borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, and certain lenders that are party thereto, which provides for revolving loans of up to the borrowing base then in effect (the “2017 Senior Credit Facility”).effect. Total lender commitments under the 2017 Senior Credit Facility are $250 million subject to a borrowing base limitation, which as of March 31, 2019 was $75 million, subject to an elected draw limit of $50 million. The 2017 Senior Credit Facility matures on a) October 17, 2021 or b) December 30, 2019, if the Convertible Second Lien Notes have not been voluntarily redeemed, repurchased, refinanced or otherwise retired by September 30, 2019, SeptemberDecember 30, 2019. Revolving borrowings under the 2017 Senior Credit Facility are limited to, and subject to periodic redeterminations of, the borrowing base. The initialamount of the borrowing base is $40 million.determined by the lenders in their sole discretion and consistent with their oil and gas lending criteria at the time of the relevant redetermination. We may, however, elect to reduce the proposed borrowing base to a lower draw limit by providing notice to the lenders contemporaneously with each redetermination of the borrowing base. Pursuant to the terms of the 2017 Senior Credit Facility, borrowing base redeterminations will be on a semi-annual basis on or about March 1st and September 1st of each calendar year, commencing onyear. The borrowing base is subject to additional adjustments from time to time, including for asset sales, elimination or about March 1, 2018.reduction of hedge positions and incurrence of other debt. Additionally, we and the administrative agent may request one unscheduled redetermination of the borrowing base between scheduled redeterminations. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. is the lead lender and administrative agent under the 2017 Senior Credit Facility.


We exited the thirdfirst quarter of 20172019 with no cash of $31.7 million, which includes $0.6on hand and $32.0 million of restricted cash held as collateral for the issuance of a letter of credit in connection with a natural gas gathering agreement. As of September 30, 2017, we had outstanding borrowings under the Exit Credit Facilitywith $18 million of $16.7 million. The outstanding Exit Credit Facility amount was paid off upon entering intoavailability under the 2017 Senior Credit Facility on October 17,borrowing base draw limit of $50 million. Due to the timing of payment of our capital expenditures, we reflected a working capital deficit of $30 million as of March 31, 2019. Subsequently, our working capital deficit was not covered by availability under our 2017 Senior Credit Facility due to our draw limit, and we were therefore not in compliance with a $16.7 million balance dueour current ratio covenant under the 2017 Senior Credit Facility.


Our total capital expenditure budget On April 29, 2019, we entered into a Limited Waiver to Credit Agreement with the Subsidiary, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders agreed to waive our failure to comply with the current ratio financial covenant under the 2017 Senior Credit Facility as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2019.

On May 14, 2019, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “2019 Credit Agreement”) among the Company, the Subsidiary, as borrower (in such capacity, the “Borrower”), SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and certain lenders that are party thereto, which provides for revolving loans of up to the borrowing base then in effect (the “2019 Senior Credit Facility”). The 2019 Senior Credit Facility amends, restates and refinances the obligations under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

The 2019 Senior Credit Facility matures (a) May 14, 2024 or (b) the date that is 180 days prior to the “Maturity Date” as defined in the New 2L Notes Indenture (as defined below) as in effect on the issuance date of the New 2L Notes if the New 2L Notes (as defined below) have not been voluntarily redeemed, repurchased, refinanced or otherwise retired by, such date. The maximum credit amount under the 2019 Senior Credit Facility is currently $500 million with an initial borrowing base of $115 million. The borrowing base is scheduled to be redetermined on or about June 1, 2019 and thereafter in March and September of each calendar year, and is subject to additional adjustments from time to time, including for asset sales, elimination or reduction of hedge positions and incurrence of other debt. Additionally, each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may request one unscheduled redetermination of the borrowing base between scheduled redeterminations.  The amount of the borrowing base is determined by the lenders in their sole discretion and consistent with their oil and gas lending criteria at the time of the relevant redetermination. The Borrower may also request the issuance of letters of credit under the 2019 Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount up to $10 million, which reduce the amount of available borrowings under the borrowing base in the amount of such issued and outstanding letters of credit.

On May 14, 2019, the Company and the Subsidiary entered into a purchase agreement (the “New 2L Notes Purchase Agreement”) with certain funds and accounts managed by Franklin Advisers, Inc., as investment manager (each such fund or account, together with its successors and assigns, a “New 2L Notes Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company will issue to the New 2L Notes Purchasers (the “New 2L Notes Offering”) $12.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 13.50% Convertible Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the “New 2L Notes”). The closing of the New 2L Notes Offering is conditioned upon the Redemption and is expected to range between $40 millionoccur contemporaneously therewith, subject to $50 million. We planthe satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Proceeds from the sale of the New 2L Notes will be used to focus all of our 2017 drilling efforts inpay down outstanding borrowings under the Haynesville Shale Trend.

Operating activities: Production from our wells, the price of oil and natural gas and operating costs represent the main drivers behind our cash flow from operations for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019 and 2018. Changes in working capital and net cash settlements related to our derivative contracts also impact cash flows. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 was $0.3$17.9 million including operating cash flows before positive working capital changes of $8.3$3.1 million and including a reduction due to net cash payments of $1.8 million in settlement of derivative contracts. The substantial increase in cash provided by operating activities forin the nine months ended September 30, 2017current quarter compared to the first quarter 2018 was $15.8 million including operating cash flows before working capital changes of $13.6 million.attributable to a 146% increase in oil and natural gas revenues driven by a 182% increase in equivalent production volumes offset by a 13% decrease in equivalent realized prices.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements for any purpose.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on consolidated financial statements, which were prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We believe that certain accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2018 includes a discussion of our critical accounting policies and there have been no material changes to such policies during the three months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019.


Item 3—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our primary market risks are attributable to fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. These fluctuations can affect revenues and cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities. Our risk-management policies provide for the use of derivative instruments to manage these risks. The types of derivative instruments we utilize include futures, swaps, options and fixed-price physical-delivery contracts. The volume of commodity derivative instruments we utilize may vary from year to year and is governed by risk-management policies with levels of authority delegated by our Board. Both exchange and over-the-counter traded commodity derivative instruments may be subject to margin deposit requirements, and we may be required from time to time to deposit cash or provide letters of credit with exchange brokers or its counterpartiescounter-parties in order to satisfy these margin requirements.


For information regarding our accounting policies and additional information related to our derivative and financial instruments, see Note 1—“Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies”, Note 3—4—“Debt”and Note 7—8—“Commodity Derivative Activities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


Commodity Price Risk


Our most significant market risk relates to fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas prices. Management expects the prices of these commodities to remain volatile and unpredictable. As these prices decline or rise significantly, revenues and cash flow will also decline or rise significantly. In addition, a non-cash write-down of our oil and natural gas properties may be required if future commodity prices experience a sustained and significant decline. We have entered into natural gas and oil derivative instruments during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 in order to reduce the price risk associated with production in 2017for the rest of 2019 of approximately 18,000100,000 MMBtu per day and 308 barrels per day, respectively, and in the first quarter of 2020 of 70,000 MMBtu per day. We did not enter into derivatives instruments for trading purposes. purposesUtilizing actual derivative contractual volumes, a hypothetical increase of 10% in the underlying commodity prices would have changed the derivative natural gas net asset position to a liability position with a change of $9.1 million and increased the derivative oil liability position by $0.4$0.5 million as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019. Likewise, a hypothetical decrease of 10% in the underlying commodity prices would have increased the fair market value of derivatives by $0.4 million to aderivative natural gas net derivative asset position by $9.4 million and decreased the derivative oil liability position by $0.5 million as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019. Furthermore, a gain or loss would have been substantially offset by an increase or decrease, respectively, in the actual sales value of production covered by the derivative instruments.

Adoption of Comprehensive Financial Reform


The adoption of comprehensive financial reform legislation by the United States Congress could have an adverse effect on our ability to use derivative instruments to reduce the effect of commodity price, interest rate and other risks associated with our business. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.2018.


Item 4—Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


We have established disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission and that any material information relating to us is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to our management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.


As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
