In March 2020, the World Health Organization classified the outbreak of COVID-19Company will continue as a pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The measures have led to worldwide shutdowns and halting of commercial and interpersonal activity, as governments around the world have imposed regulations in efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 such as shelter-in-place orders, quarantines, executive orders and similar restrictions.going concern.
Gulfport remains focused on protecting the health and well-being of its employees and the communities in which it operates while assuring the continuity of its business operations. The Company implemented preventative measures and developed corporate and field response plans to minimize unnecessary risk of exposure and prevent infection. Additionally, the Company has a crisis management team for health, safety and environmental matters and personnel issues, and has established a COVID-19 Response Team to address various impacts of the situation, as theyCertain reclassifications have been developing. Gulfport has modified certain business practices (including remote working for its corporate employeesmade to prior period financial statements and restricted employee business travel)related disclosures to conform to government restrictionscurrent period presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previous reported total assets, total liabilities, net loss or total operating cash flows.
Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions of relief under the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The Chapter 11 Cases were administered jointly under the caption In re Gulfport Energy Corporation, et al., Case No. 20-35562 (DRJ).
The Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan and best practices encouragedentered the confirmation order on April 28, 2021. The Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases on the Emergence Date. The Company's bankruptcy proceedings and related matters have been summarized below.
During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company continued to operate its business in the ordinary course as debtors-in-possession in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Court granted the first day relief requested by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,Company that was designed primarily to mitigate the World Health Organization and other governmental and regulatory authorities. In May 2020, the Company began its phased transition back to the office for its corporate employees. As part of this transition, the Company put into place preventative measures to focus on social distancing and minimizing unnecessary risk of exposure. Asimpact of the date of this filing, Gulfport has transitioned approximately 60% ofChapter 11 Cases on its corporate employees back to the corporate office. The Company will continue to monitor trendsoperations, vendors, suppliers, customers and governmental guidelines and may adjust its return to office plans accordingly to ensure the health and safety of its employees. As a result, of its business continuity measures, the Company has not experienced significant disruptionswas able to conduct normal business activities and satisfy all associated obligations for the period following the Petition Date and was also authorized to pay mineral interest owner royalties, employee wages and benefits, and certain vendors and suppliers in executing its business operations in 2020.
Gulfport is closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of its businessordinary course for goods and the current commodity price environment and is unable to predict the impact it will have on its future financial position or operating results. In responseservices provided prior to the current commodity price environment,Petition Date. During the Company voluntarily shut-in a portion of its production during the second quarter of 2020 and announced tiered salary reduction for most employees, senior management team and the Board of Directors beginning in June 2020 with such measures expected to last through December 2020. Additionally, select furloughs were implemented to reduce costs and preserve liquidity.
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The CARES Act did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Liquidity, Management's Plans and Going Concern
As noted above, decreased demand for oil and natural gas as a resultpendency of the COVID-19 pandemic andChapter 11 Cases, all transactions outside the accompanying decrease in commodity prices has significantly impairedordinary course of business required the Company's ability to access capital markets and to refinance itsprior approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

existing indebtedness. Further, these conditions have made amendments or waiversSubject to its revolving credit facility more difficult to obtain and available on terms less favorable to the Company. If depressed commodity prices persist or decline further, the borrowing basecertain specific exceptions under the Company's revolving credit facility could be further reduced at its next scheduled redetermination date in November 2020. Any such reduction would constrainBankruptcy Code, the Company's liquidity and may impair its ability to fund its planned capital expenditures and meet its obligations under its existing indebtedness. Further, a reduction infiling of the Company's capital expenditures would decrease its production, revenues, operating cash flow and EBITDA, which could limit its ability to comply with the restrictive covenants in its revolving credit facility and other existing indebtedness. Finally, the Company's existing revolving credit facility matures in December 2021 and therefore will become a current liability at year end 2020 unlessChapter 11 Cases automatically stayed all judicial or administrative actions against the Company is ableand efforts by creditors to refinance the credit facility with a new credit facilitycollect on or other financing. Considering the current state of the first lien market and the Company's elevated leverage profile, there is substantial risk that a refinancing will not be available to the Company on reasonable terms. A current liability under the revolving credit facility at year end 2020 may result in a qualified audit opinion which could result in a default under the terms of the current revolving credit facility. As a result of these uncertainties and other factors, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to meet the Company's obligations under its existing indebtednessotherwise exercise rights or failure to comply with any of its covenants, if not waived, would result in an event of default under such indebtedness and result in the potential acceleration of outstanding indebtedness thereunder and,remedies with respect to pre-petition claims. Absent an order from the revolving credit facility,Bankruptcy Court, substantially all of the potential foreclosureDebtors’ pre-petition liabilities were subject to compromise and discharge under the Bankruptcy Code. The automatic stay was lifted on the collateral securing such debt, and could cause a cross-default under its other outstanding indebtedness.Emergence Date.

In the current depressed commodity price environment and period of economic uncertainty, the Company has taken various steps over the last several months to improve its balance sheet and preserve liquidity including (1) exercising capital discipline by reducing 2020 capital spending by 50% as compared to 2019, (2) focusing on operational efficiencies to reduce operating costs as evidenced by the recent reductions in Development and Completion costs per lateral foot, (3) reducing corporate general and administrative costs significantly, (4) and repurchasing unsecured notes at a deep discount.

Although management’s actions listed above have helped to improve our liquidity and leverage profile, continued macro headwinds including the depressed state of energy capital markets and the extraordinarily low commodity price environments present significant risks to the Company's ability to fund its operations going forward. Accordingly, management has determined there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. The Company has engaged financial and legal advisors to assist withapplied FASB ASC Topic 852 - Reorganizations ("ASC 852") in preparing the evaluation of a range of liability management alternatives. Additionally, the Company maintains an active dialogue with its senior lenders and bondholders regarding liability management alternatives to improve its balance sheet. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to successfully complete a liability management transaction that materially improves the Company’s leverage profile or liquidity position.

The consolidated financial statements (i) have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplatesfor the realization of assetsperiod ended May 17, 2021. ASC 852 specifies the accounting and satisfaction of liabilities and other commitments infinancial reporting requirements for entities reorganizing through Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. These requirements include distinguishing transactions associated with the normal course of business and (ii) do not include any adjustmentsreorganization separate from activities related to reflect the possible future effectsongoing operations of the uncertaintybusiness. Accordingly, pre-petition liabilities that may be impacted by the Chapter 11 proceedings were classified as liabilities subject to compromise on the recoverabilityconsolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. Additionally, certain expenses, realized gains and losses and provisions for losses that are realized or classificationincurred during the Chapter 11 Cases are recorded as reorganization items, net. Refer to Note 3 for more information regarding reorganization items.
Restricted Cash
As of recorded asset amounts orJune 30, 2021, we had restricted cash of $29.1 million. The restricted funds were maintained primarily to pay debtor-related professional fees associated with the amounts or classifications of liabilities.

Chapter 11 Cases.
Impact on Previously Reported Results
During the third quarter of 2019,2020, the Company identified that certain activitiesfirm transportation costs incurred in prior periods were misclassified between cash flows from operating activities and cash flows from investing activities. These activities had been included in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other and presented as cash flows from operating activitiesdeducts to "natural gas sales" while they should have been presented as additions to oilincluded in "transportation, gathering, processing and natural gas properties in cash flows from investing activities.compression" on its consolidated statements of operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
On January 1,In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This new standard simplifies and adds disclosure requirements for the accounting and measurement of convertible instruments. It eliminates the treasury stock method for convertible instruments and requires application of the “if-converted” method for certain agreements. In addition, the standard eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features and the recognition of a debt discount and related amortization to interest expense of those embedded features.
The Company elected to early adopt this standard effective on the Emergence Date. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, the new standard using the modified retrospective approach transition method. No cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings was required upon adoption of the new standard. The consolidated financial statements for the Successor Period are presented under the new standard, while the predecessor periods and comparative periods are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company's historical accounting policy.

2.Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial InstrumentsCHAPTER 11 EMERGENCE
As described in Note 1, on November 13, 2020, the Debtors filed the Chapter 11 Cases and the Plan, which replaceswas subsequently amended, and entered the incurred loss impairment methodologyconfirmation order on April 28, 2021. The Debtors then emerged from bankruptcy upon effectiveness of the Plan on May 17, 2021. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.
Plan of Reorganization
In accordance with the Plan confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, the following significant transactions occurred upon the Company's emergence from bankruptcy on May 17, 2021:
Shares of the Predecessor's common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Emergence Date were cancelled, and on the Emergence Date, the Company issued 19,845,780 shares of New Common Stock and 55,000 shares of New Preferred Stock, which were the result of the transactions described below. The Company also entered into a methodologyregistration rights agreement and amended its articles of incorporation and bylaws for the authorization of the New Common Stock and New Preferred Stock among other corporate governance actions. See Note 6 for further discussion of the Company's post-emergence equity;
All outstanding obligations under the Predecessor Senior Notes were cancelled;
The Predecessor effectuated certain restructuring transactions, including entering into a plan of Merger with Gulfport Merger Sub, Inc., a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of Gulfport ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which Merger Sub was merged with and into Predecessor, resulting in the Predecessor becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Gulfport;
The Debtors entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Exit Credit Agreement") with the Bank of Nova Scotia as administrative agent, various lender parties and acknowledged and agreed to by certain of Gulfport's subsidiaries, as guarantors, providing for (i) a new money senior secured reserve-based revolving credit facility in an aggregate maximum principal amount of up to $1.5 billion (the "Exit Facility"); (ii) a senior secured term loan in an aggregate maximum principal amount of up to $180 million (the "First-Out Term Loan Facility") and together with the Exit Facility (the "Exit Credit Facility"), collectively with an initial borrowing base and elected commitment amount of up to $580 million (less the amount of any term loan deemed funded by any RBL Lender that reflects expected credit lossesis not a Consenting RBL Lender);
The Company entered into an indenture to issue up to $550 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.000% senior notes due 2026, dated as of May 17, 2021, by and requires considerationamong the Issuer, UMB Bank, National Association, as trustee, and the guarantors party thereto (such indenture, the “1145 Indenture,” and such senior notes issued thereunder, the “1145 Notes”), under section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code (“Section 1145”). Certain eligible holders have made an election (the “4(a)(2) Election”) entitling such holders to receive senior notes issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of May 17, 2021, by and among the Issuer, UMB Bank, National Association, as trustee, and the guarantors party thereto (such indenture, the “4(a)(2) Indenture,” and such senior notes issued thereunder, the “4(a)(2) Notes”), under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended as opposed to its share of the up to $550 million aggregate principal amount of 1145 Notes. The 4(a)(2) Indenture's terms are substantially similar to the terms of the 1145 Indenture. The 1145 Indenture and the 4(a)(2) Indenture are referred to together as the "Indentures". The 1145 Notes and the 4(a)(2) Notes are collectively referred to as the "Successor Senior Notes";
The DIP Credit Facility indefeasibly converted into the Exit Facility, and all commitments under the DIP Credit Facility terminated. Each holder of an Allowed DIP Claim received, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of, and in exchange for, each Allowed DIP Claim its Pro Rata share of participation in the Exit Credit Facility;
Each holder of an Allowed Notes Claim received its pro rata share of 19,714,204 shares of New Common Stock, 54,967 shares of New Preferred Stock and New Unsecured Senior Notes.

reported amount. Each holder of a Class 4B claim greater than the Convenience Claim Threshold received its pro rata share of 11,897 shares of New Common Stock, 33 shares of New Preferred Stock, the Rights Offering Subscription Rights and the Successor Senior Notes.
Each holder of a Convenience Class Claim will share in a $3 million Cash distribution pool, which the Unsecured Claims Distribution Trustee may increase by an additional $2 million by reducing the Gulfport Parent Cash Pool;
Each intercompany claim was cancelled on the Emergence Date and holders of intercompany interests received no recovery or distribution;
The Company conducted a Rights Offering and issued 50,000 shares of New Preferred Stock at $1,000 per share to holders of claims against the Predecessor Subsidiaries, raising $50 million in proceeds. Additionally, 5,000 shares were issued to the Back Stop Commitment counterparties in lieu of cash consideration as per the Backstop Commitment Agreement.
The Company adopted the new standard using the prospective transition method, and it did not have a material impactGulfport Energy Corporation 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") effective on the Emergence Date and reserved 2,828,123 shares of New Common Stock for issuance to Gulfport's employees and non-employee directors pursuant to equity incentive awards to be granted under the Incentive Plan.
Additionally, pursuant to the Plan confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company's post-emergence Board of Directors is comprised of five directors, including the Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer, Timothy Cutt, and four non-employee directors, David Wolf, Guillermo Martinez, Jason Martinez and David Reganato.
Executory Contracts
Subject to certain exceptions, under the Bankruptcy Code the Debtors were entitled to assume, assign or reject certain executory contracts and unexpired leases subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and fulfillment of certain other conditions. Generally, the rejection of an executory contract was treated as a pre-petition breach of such contract and, subject to certain exceptions, relieved the Debtors from performing future obligations under such contract but entitled the counterparty to a pre-petition general unsecured claim for damages caused by such deemed breach. Alternatively, the assumption of an executory contract or unexpired lease required the Debtors to cure existing monetary defaults under such executory contract or unexpired lease, if any, and provide adequate assurance of future performance. Accordingly, any description of an executory contract or unexpired lease with the Debtors in this document, including where applicable quantification of the Company’s obligations under such executory or unexpired lease of the Debtors, is qualified by any overriding rejection rights the Company has under the Bankruptcy Code. Further, nothing herein is or shall be deemed an admission with respect to any claim amounts or calculations arising from the rejection of any executory contract or unexpired lease and the Debtors expressly preserve all of their rights thereto. Refer to Note 9 for more information on potential future rejection damages related to general unsecured claims.
3.FRESH START ACCOUNTING
In connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC 852, the Company qualified for and applied fresh start accounting on the Emergence Date. The Company qualified for fresh start accounting because (1) the holders of existing voting shares of the Company prior to the Emergence Date received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor's equity following its emergence from bankruptcy and (2) the reorganization value of the Company's assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan of approximately $2.3 billion was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims of $3.1 billion.
In accordance with ASC 852, with the application of fresh start accounting, the Company allocated its reorganization value to its individual assets based on their estimated fair value in conformity with FASB ASC Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurements and FASB ASC Topic 805 - Business Combinations. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements after May 17, 2021 are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements as of or prior to that date. The Emergence Date fair values of the Successor's assets and related disclosures.liabilities differ materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheet of the Predecessor.
Reorganization Value
Reorganization value is derived from an estimate of enterprise value, or fair value of the Company's interest-bearing debt and stockholders' equity. Under ASC 852, reorganization value generally approximates fair value of the entity before considering liabilities and is intended to approximate the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets immediately after the effects of a restructuring. As set forth in the disclosure statement, amended for updated pricing, and approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the enterprise value of the Successor was estimated to be between $1.3 billion and $1.9 billion. With the

Table of Contents

assistance of third-party valuation advisors, the Company determined the enterprise value and corresponding implied equity value of the Successor using various valuation approaches and methods, including: (i) income approach using a calculation of present value of future cash flows based on our financial projections, (ii) the market approach using selling prices of similar assets and (iii) the cost approach. Deferred income taxes were determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 - Income Taxes ("ASC 740"). For GAAP purposes, the Company valued the Successor's individual assets, liabilities and equity instruments and determined an estimate of the enterprise value within the estimated range. Management concluded that the best estimate of enterprise value was $1.6 billion. Specific valuation approaches and key assumptions used to arrive at reorganization value, and the value of discrete assets and liabilities resulting from the application of fresh start accounting, are described below in greater detail within the valuation process.
The enterprise value and corresponding implied equity value are dependent upon achieving the future financial results set forth in our valuation using an asset-based methodology of estimated proved reserves, undeveloped properties, and other financial information, considerations and projections, applying a combination of the income, cost and market approaches as of the fresh start reporting date of May 17, 2021. As estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections, including the fair value adjustments, the financial projections, the enterprise value and equity value projections, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties, the resolution of contingencies is beyond our control. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the estimates, assumptions, valuations or financial projections will be realized, and actual results could vary materially.
The following table reconciles the enterprise value to the implied fair value of the Successor's equity as of the Emergence Date:
Enterprise Value$1,600,000

(1) Restricted cash is not included in the above table.
The fair values of our oil and natural gas properties, other property and equipment, derivative instruments, equity investments and asset retirement obligations were estimated as of the Emergence Date.
Oil and natural gas properties. The Company's principal assets are its oil and natural gas properties, which are accounted for under the full cost method of accounting. The Company determined the fair value of its oil and natural gas properties based on the discounted future net cash flows expected to be generated from these assets. Discounted cash flow models by operating area were prepared using the estimated future revenues and operating costs for all developed wells and undeveloped properties comprising the proved and unproved reserves. Significant inputs associated with the calculation of discounted future net cash flows include estimates of (i) recoverable reserves, (ii) production rates, (iii) future operating and development costs, (iv) future commodity prices escalated by an inflationary rate after seven years, adjusted for differentials and (v) a market-based weighted average cost of capital by operating area. The Company utilized NYMEX strip pricing, adjusted for differentials, to value the reserves. The NYMEX strip pricing inputs used are classified as Level 1 fair value assumptions and all other inputs are classified as Level 3 fair value assumptions. The discount rates utilized were derived using a weighted average cost of capital computation, which included an estimated cost of debt and equity for market participants with similar geographies and asset development type by operating area.

Table of Contents

Other property and equipment. The fair value of other property and equipment, such as land, buildings, vehicles, computer equipment and other equipment, was maintained at net book value as the carrying value reasonably approximated the fair value of the assets.
Asset retirement obligations. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 410 - Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations ("ASC 410"), the asset retirement obligations associated with the Company's oil and gas assets was valued using the income approach. The fair value of the Company’s asset retirement obligations was revalued based upon estimated current reclamation costs for our assets with reclamation obligations, updated estimates of timing of reclamation obligations, an appropriate long-term inflation adjustment, and the Company's revised credit adjusted risk-free rate. The credit adjusted risk-free rate was based on an evaluation of an interest rate that equates to a risk-free interest rate adjusted for the effect of the Company's credit standing.
Derivative Instruments. The fair value of derivative instruments was adjusted based on the change in the Company’s credit rating reflecting the Company’s credit standing at the Emergence Date.

Equity Investments. The fair value of the Company's investment in Grizzly Sands ULC was reduced by $27 million. The reduction in valuation was based upon the assessment of the investment by the Company's new management and its priority for future funding in its portfolio. In particular, Grizzly’s operations remained suspended, even with improvements in the pricing environment since its initial suspension in 2015. Additionally, the Company does not anticipate funding future capital calls which will lead to further dilution of its equity ownership interest.

Reorganization Items, Net
The Company has incurred significant expenses, gains and losses associated with the reorganization, primarily the gain on settlement of liabilities subject to compromise, provision for allowed claims and legal and professional fees incurred subsequent to the Chapter 11 filings for the restructuring process. The accrual for allowed claims primarily represents damages from contract rejections and settlements attributable to the midstream savings requirement as stipulated in the Plan. While the claims reconciliation process is ongoing, the estimate of liabilities related to the rejection of certain midstream contracts reflects the best estimate of the most probable outcomes of ongoing litigation and settlement negotiations. The amount of these items, which were incurred in reorganization items, net within the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, have significantly affected the Company's statements of operations.

Business Operations
The Company is involved in various lawsuits and disputes incidental to its business operations, including commercial disputes, personal injury claims, royalty claims, property damage claims and contract actions.
Environmental Contingencies
The nature of the oil and gas business carries with it certain environmental risks for Gulfport and its subsidiaries. TheyGulfport and its subsidiaries have implemented various policies, programs, procedures, training and audits to reduce and mitigate environmental risks. They conductThe Company conducts periodic reviews, on a company-wide basis, to assess changes in their environmental risk profile. Environmental reserves are established for environmental liabilities for which economic losses are probable and reasonably estimable. The Company manages its exposure to environmental liabilities in acquisitions by using an evaluation process that seeks to identify pre-existing contamination or compliance concerns and address the potential liability. Depending on the extent of an identified environmental concern, they may, among other things, exclude a property from the transaction, require the seller to remediate the property to their satisfaction in an acquisition or agree to assume liability for the remediation of the property.
The Company received several Finding of Violation (“FOVs”) from the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") alleging violations of the Clean Air Act at approximately 17 locations in Ohio. The first FOV for 1 site was dated December 11, 2013.  Two subsequent FOVs incorporated and expanded the scope on January 4, 2017 and April 15, 2019.  The Company has exchanged information with the USEPA and is engaged in discussions aimed at resolving the allegations. Resolution of the matter resulted in monetary sanctions of approximately $1.7 million.
In October 2018, the company submitted a Voluntary Disclosure document to the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) stemming from improper air permitting at several sites in Midcon between 2014 and 2017. The sites were permitted by Vitruvian prior to the Company's purchase of those assets. The sites were permitted utilizing the “permit by rule” regulation but actually required Title V air permits. The Company has agreed in a draft Consent Order to obtain the proper permits and to pay the costs from not having the proper permits in place in the amount of $180,000 to the ODEQ. The Order received final approval at the ODEQ and is expected to be finalized in the third quarter of 2020.
Other Matters
Based on management’s current assessment, they are of the opinion that no pending or threatened lawsuit or dispute relating to its business operations is likely to have a material adverse effect on their future consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The final resolution of such matters could exceed amounts accrued, however, and actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.

10.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Natural Gas, Oil and Natural Gas Liquids Derivative Instruments
Gulfport has established policies and procedures for managing commodity price volatility through the use of derivative instruments. The Company seeks to reduce its exposuremitigate risks related to unfavorable changes in natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids ("NGL")NGL prices, which are subject to significant and often volatile fluctuation, by entering into over-the-counter fixed price swaps, basis swaps, costless collars and various types of option contracts. These contractsThe derivative instruments allow the Company to predict with greater certaintymitigate the effective natural gas, oil and NGLimpact of declines in future commodity prices to be receivedby effectively locking in a floor price for hedged production and benefit operating cash flows and earnings when market prices are less thana certain level of the fixed prices provided in the contracts.Company’s production. However, these instruments also limit future gains from favorable price movements. The volume of commodity derivative instruments utilized by the Company will not benefitmay vary from market prices that are higher than the fixed prices in the contracts for hedgedyear to year based on forecasted production.
Fixed price swaps are settled monthly based on differences between the fixed price specified in the contract and the referenced settlement price. When the referenced settlement price is less than the price specified in the contract, the Company receives an amount from the counterparty based on the price difference multiplied by the volume. Similarly, when the referenced settlement price exceeds the price specified in the contract, the Company pays the counterparty an amount based on the price difference multiplied by the volume. The prices contained in these fixed price swaps are based on the NYMEX Henry Hub for natural gas, the NYMEX West Texas IntermediateWTI for oil and Mont Belvieu for propane, pentane and ethane.

Contingent Consideration Arrangement
The Company sold its non-core assets located in the West Cote Blanche Bay and Hackberry fields of Louisiana in July 2019. The sale price included the potential for the Company to receive contingent payments based on commodity prices exceeding specified thresholds over the two years following the closing date. This contingent consideration arrangement was determined to be an embedded derivative. See below for threshold and potential payment amounts.

Concentration of Credit Risk
By using derivative instruments that are not traded on an exchange, the Company is exposed to the credit risk of its counterparties. Credit risk is the risk of loss from counterparties not performing under the terms of the derivative instrument. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, the counterparty is expected to owe the Company, which creates credit risk. To minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments, it is the Company’s policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy financial institutions deemed by management as competent and competitive market makers. The Company’s derivative contracts are withspread between multiple counterparties to lessen its exposure to any individual counterparty. Additionally, the Company uses master netting agreements to minimize credit risk exposure. The creditworthiness of the Company’s counterparties is subject to periodic review. None of the Company’s derivative instrument contracts contain credit-risk related contingent features. Other than as provided by the Company’s revolving credit facility, the Company is not required to provide credit support or collateral to any of its counterparties under its derivative instruments, nor are the counterparties required to provide credit support to the Company.

11.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company recordsmeasures and discloses certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value.value in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market or observable inputs are the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
Valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs are favored. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement of assets and liabilities within the levels of the fair value hierarchy. Reclassifications of fair value between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if applicable, are made at the end of each quarter.
Financial assets and liabilities
The following tables summarize the Company’s financial and non-financial assets and liabilities by valuation level as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019:2020:

The Company estimates the fair value of all derivative instruments using industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, implied volatility, time value, nonperformance risk, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument and can be supported by observable data.
As discussed in Note 3, the Company adjusted the fair value of its derivative instruments as a fresh start adjustment at the Emergence Date as a result of changes in the Company's credit adjustment to reflect its new credit standing at emergence.

The Company's SCOOP water infrastructure sale, which closed in the first quarter of 2020, included a contingent consideration arrangement. As of June 30, 2020,2021, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $19.8$6.5 million, of which $0.8$0.5 million is included in prepaid expenses and other assets and $19.0$6.0 million is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and is based on internal estimates of the Company's future development program and water production levels. Given the unobservable nature of the inputs, the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration arrangement is deemed to use Level 3 inputs. The Company has elected the fair value option for this contingent consideration arrangement and, therefore, records changes in fair value in earnings. The Company recognized a loss$1.1 million gain for the Successor Period and a nominal gain for the Current Predecessor Quarter and Current Predecessor YTD Period, respectively, which is included in other expense (income) in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized losses of $3.2 million and $3.0 million on changes in fair value of the contingent consideration during the threePrior Predecessor Quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, which is included in other expense (income) in

Non-financial assets and liabilities
The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and based on internal estimates of future retirement costs associated with oil and gas properties. Given the unobservable nature of the inputs, including plugging costs and reserve lives, the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation liability is deemed to use Level 3 inputs. See Note 24 for further discussion of the Company’s asset retirement obligations. Asset retirement obligations incurred
As discussed in Note 4, the Company recorded an impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $1.6 million.Current Predecessor YTD Period on its corporate headquarters. The estimated fair value of the building was primarily based on third party estimates and, therefore, is deemed to use Level 3 inputs.
Fair value of other financial instruments
The carrying amounts on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and current debt are carried at cost, which approximates market value due to their short-term nature. Long-term debt related to the Company's constructionbuilding loan is carried at cost, which approximates market value based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company with similar terms and maturities.
Chapter 11 Emergence and Fresh Start Accounting
On the Emergence Date, the Company adopted fresh start accounting, which resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. Upon the adoption of fresh start accounting, the Company’s assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of May 17, 2021. The inputs utilized in the valuation of the Company’s most significant asset, its oil and natural gas properties and related assets, included mostly unobservable inputs which fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Such inputs included estimates of future oil and gas production from the Company’s reserve reports, commodity prices based on forward strip price curves (adjusted for basis differentials) as of May 17, 2021, operating and development costs, expected future development plans for the properties and discount rates based on a weighted-average cost of capital computation. The Company also recorded its asset retirement obligations at fair value as a result of fresh start accounting. The inputs utilized in valuing the asset retirement obligations were mostly Level 3 unobservable inputs, including estimated economic lives of oil and natural gas wells as of the Emergence Date, anticipated future plugging and abandonment costs and an appropriate credit-adjusted risk free rate to discount such costs. Refer to Note 3 for a detailed discussion of the fair value approaches used by the Company.
12.REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from the sale of natural gas, oil and condensate and NGL. Sales of natural gas, oil and condensate and NGL are recognized in the period that the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company generally considers the delivery of each unit (MMBtu or Bbl) to be separately identifiable and represents a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied at the time control of the product is transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in the contract with the customer, and excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. These
40

Table of Contents

contracts typically include variable consideration that is based on pricing tied to market indices and volumes delivered in the current month. As such, this market pricing may be constrained (i.e., not estimable) at the inception of the contract but will be recognized based on the applicable market pricing, which will be known upon transfer of the goods to the customer. The payment date is usually within 30 days of the end of the calendar month in which the commodity is delivered.
Gathering, processing and compression fees attributable to gas processing, as well as any transportation fees, including firm transportation fees, incurred to deliver the product to the purchaser, are presented as transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
A significant number of the Company's product sales are short-term in nature generally through evergreen contracts with contract terms of one year or less. These contracts typically automatically renew under the same provisions. For those contracts, the Company has utilized the practical expedient allowed in the new revenue accounting standard that exempts the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.
For product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, the Company has utilized the practical expedient that exempts the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product generally represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. Currently, the Company's product sales that have a contractual term greater than one year have no long-term fixed consideration.
Contract Balances
Receivables from contracts with customers are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional, generally when control of the product has been transferred to the customer. Receivables from contracts with customers were $65.6$140.7 million and $121.2$119.9 million as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, and are reported in accounts receivable - oil and natural gas sales on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company currently has no assets or liabilities related to its revenue contracts, including no upfront or rights to deficiency payments.
Prior-Period Performance Obligations
The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain sales may be received for 30 to 90 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to

The differences between the estimates and the actual amounts for product sales is recorded in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. For the six months ended June 30, 2020,Current Predecessor YTD Period and the Successor Period, revenue recognized in the reporting periodperiods related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods was not material.

Effective as of the Emergence Date, the Company elected to begin reporting its proportionate share of Grizzly's earnings on a one-quarter lag as permitted under FASB ASC Topic 323 - Equity Method and Joint Ventures. This change in accounting policy did not have a material impact on any periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
As discussed in Note 3, the Company reduced its carrying value of its investment in Grizzly to 0 upon the Emergence Date. The reduction in valuation was based upon the Company's new management's assessment of the investment and its priority for future funding in its portfolio. In particular, Grizzly’s operations remained suspended, even with improvements in the pricing environment since its initial suspension in 2015. Additionally, the Company does not anticipate funding future capital calls which will lead to further dilution of our equity ownership interest.
Mammoth Energy Services, Inc.
As discussed in Note 2, the Company's previously owned shares of the outstanding common stock of Mammoth Energy were used to settle Class 4A claims. The Company's investment carrying value was reduced to 0 in the first quarter of 2020 due to the Company's share of cumulative net loss and impairments and the carrying value remained at 0 through the Emergence Date.
13.14.LEASES
Nature of Leases
The Company has operating leases associated with drilling rig commitments,on certain equipment and field offices and other equipment with remaining lease terms with contractual durations in excess of one year. The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with lease terms of greater than one year. Short-term leases that have an initial term of one year or less are not capitalized.
The Company has entered into a contractcontracts with varying terms for a drilling rig with a third party to ensure rig availability.rigs. The CompanyCompany has concluded its drilling rig contracts are operating leases as the assets are identifiable and the evaluation that the Company has the right to control the identified assets. The Company'sHowever, at June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any active long-term drilling rig commitments are typically structured with an initial term of one to two years, and typically include renewal options at the end of the initial term. Due to the nature of the Company's drilling schedules and potential volatilitycontracts in commodity prices, the Company is unable to determine at commencement with reasonable certainty if the renewal options will be exercised; therefore, renewal options are not considered in the lease term for drilling contracts. The operating lease liability associated with its rig commitment is based on the minimum contractual obligation, primarily standby rate, and does not include variable amounts based on actual activity in a given period. The Company has also entered into several drilling rig commitments with an initial term less than one year. The costs for these short-term rig commitments are included in the short-term lease cost for the period as shown below. Pursuant to the full cost method of accounting, these costs are capitalized as part of oil and natural gas properties on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. A portion of these costs are borne by other interest owners.
Effective October 1, 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Master Services Agreement for pressure pumping services with Stingray Pressure Pumping LLC (“Stingray Pressure”), a subsidiary of Mammoth Energy and a related party. Pursuant to this agreement, as amended effective July 1, 2018, Stingray Pressure has agreed to provide hydraulic fracturing, stimulation and related completion and rework services to the Company through 2021 and the Company has agreed to pay Stingray Pressure a monthly service fee plus the associated costs of the services provided. As discussed further in Note 9, the Company has terminated the Master Services Agreement for pressure pumping with Stingray Pressure. As a result, in the first quarter of 2020, Gulfport has removed the related right of use assets and lease liabilities associated with the terminated contract.place.
The Company rents office space for its corporate headquarters and field locations and certain other equipment from third parties, which expire at various dates through 2024. These agreements are typically structured with non-cancelable terms of one to five years. The Company has determined these agreements represent operating leases with a lease term that equals the primary non-cancelable contract term. The Company has included any renewal options that it has determined are reasonably certain of exercise in the determination of the lease terms. The lease for the Company's corporate headquarters has a primary term of one year and is classified as a short-term operating lease.
Discount Rate
As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company's incremental borrowing rate reflects the estimated rate of interest that it would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

15.INCOME TAXES
As discussed in Note 2, elements of the Plan provided that the Company’s indebtedness related to Predecessor Senior Notes and certain general unsecured claims were exchanged for New Common Stock in settlement of those claims. Absent an exception, a debtor recognizes CODI upon discharge of its outstanding indebtedness for an amount of consideration that is less than its adjusted issue price. The IRC provides that a debtor in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case may exclude CODI from taxable income, but must reduce certain of its tax attributes by the amount of any CODI realized as a result of the consummation of a plan of reorganization. The amount of CODI realized by a taxpayer is determined based on the fair market value of the consideration received by the creditors in settlement of outstanding indebtedness. As a result of the market value of equity upon emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, the estimated amount of CODI is approximately $708.8 million, which will reduce the value of the Company’s net operating losses. The actual reduction in tax attributes does not occur until the first day of the Company’s tax year subsequent to the date of emergence, or January 1, 2022. The reduction of net operating losses is expected to be fully offset by a corresponding decrease in valuation allowance. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had an estimated federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1.1 billion after giving effect to the estimated reduction in tax attributes as discussed above.

14.INCOME TAXES
Emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings resulted in a change in ownership for purposes of IRC Section 382. The Company records its quarterly tax provision based on an estimate of the annual effective tax rate expectedcurrently expects to apply rules under IRC Section 382(l)(5) that would allow the Company to continuing operations formitigate the various jurisdictions in which it operates.limitations imposed under the regulations with respect to the Company’s remaining tax attributes. The tax effects of certain items, such as tax rate changes, significant unusual or infrequent items, and certain changes in the assessment of the realizability of deferred taxes, are recognized as discrete items in the period in which they occur and are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate before discrete items remained near zero as a result of the valuation allowance on itsCompany’s deferred tax assets. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized $7.3 million of income tax expense discretely in the quarter as a result of the sale of assets and a corresponding adjustmentliabilities, prior to the valuation allowance, have been computed on remaining state net operating loss carryforwards.such basis. Taxpayers who qualify for this provision may, at their option, elect not to apply the election. If the provision does not apply, the Company’s ability to realize the value of its tax attributes would be subject to limitation and the amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities, prior to the valuation allowance, may differ. Additionally, under IRC Section 382(l)(5), an ownership change subsequent to the Company’s emergence could severely limit or effectively eliminate its ability to realize the value of its tax attributes.

TheAt each reporting period, the Company anticipates remaining in a net deferred tax position based on the analysis performed for threeweighs all available positive and six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company expects a full valuation allowance againstnegative evidence to determine whether its deferred tax assets based on its conclusion, considering all available evidence (both positive and negative), that it wasare more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would notto be realized. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses, is recognized when it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax assets will not be realized. To assess that likelihood, the Company uses estimates and judgment regarding future taxable income and considers the tax laws in the jurisdiction where such taxable income is generated, to determine whether a valuation allowance is required. Such evidence can include current financial position, results of operations, both actual and forecasted, the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies as well as the current and forecasted business economics of the oil and gas industry.

On March 27, 2020, Based upon the CARES ActCompany’s analysis, the Company determined a full valuation allowance was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Act includes several significant provisions for corporations including allowing companies to carryback certain NOLs, increasing the amount of NOLs that corporations can use to offset income, and increasing the amount of deductible interest under section 163(j). The Company does not expect to be materially impacted by the CARES Act provision and does not anticipate the CARES Act to have a material effect onnecessary against its ability to realizednet deferred tax assets.assets as of both May 17, 2021 and June 30, 2021.

The Company’s abilityCompany will continue to utilize NOL carryforwards and other tax attributes to reduceevaluate whether the valuation allowance is needed in future federal taxable income is subject to potential limitations under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”) and its related tax regulations.reporting periods. The utilization of these attributes may be limited if certain ownership changes by 5% stockholders (as defined in Treasury regulations pursuant to Section 382) and the effects of stock issuances by the Company during any three-year period result in a cumulative change of more than 50% in the beneficial ownership of Gulfport. The Company updates its Section 382 analysis to determine if an ownership change has occurred at each reporting period. Ifvaluation allowance will remain until it is determined that an ownership change has occurred under these rules,the net deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. Future events or new evidence which may lead us to conclude that it is more likely than not that its net deferred tax assets will be realized include, but are not limited to, cumulative historical pre-tax earnings, improvements in oil prices, and taxable events that could result from one or more transactions. The valuation allowance does not prevent future utilization of the tax attributes if the Company would generally be subject to an annual limitation onrecognizes taxable income.

In addition, certain future transactions regardingCompany concludes that the Company's equity, including the cumulative effects of small transactions as well as transactions beyond the Company’s control, could cause an ownership change and therefore a potential limitation on the annual utilization ofvaluation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. On April 30, 2020, the board of directors ofassets is necessary, the Company adopted a tax benefits preservation plan in order to protect against a possible limitation on the Company’s ability to use its tax net operating losses and certain other tax benefits to reduce potential future U.S. federallikely will not have any additional deferred income tax obligations.

These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “potential” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, includedGulfport’s financial condition provided in this Form 10-Q that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including such things as the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, our industry and the global economy, estimated future net revenues from oil and gas reserves and the present value thereof, future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof), the effect of our remediation plan for a material weakness, business strategy and measures to implement strategy, competitive strength, goals, expansion and growth of our business and operations, plans, references to future success, reference to intentions as to future matters and other such matters are forward-looking statements.

In addition, management's assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure any reader that those statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements due to the factors listed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in ourits Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 (“2020 Form 10-K”), and elsewhereanalyzes the changes in this Form 10-Q.

Overview
We areGulfport is an independent natural gas-weighted exploration and production company focused on the exploration, acquisition and production of natural gas, crude oil and natural gas liquids ("NGL")with assets primarily located in the United States with primary focus in the
37

Table of Contents

Appalachia and Mid-ContinentAnadarko basins. Our principal properties are located in Eastern Ohio targeting the Utica formation and in central Oklahoma targeting the SCOOP Woodford and SCOOP Springer formations. Our strategy is to develop our assets in a manner that generates sustainable cash flow and improves margins and operating efficiencies, while improving our Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") and safety performance. To accomplish these goals, we allocate capital to projects we believe offer the highest rate of return and we deploy leading drilling and completion techniques and technologies in our development efforts. We believe our plan to generate free cash flow on an annual basis will allow us to further strengthen our balance sheet and ultimately return capital to shareholders.
Our results of operations as reported in our consolidated financial statements for the 2021 Successor Period, Current Predecessor Quarter and Current Predecessor YTD Period are in accordance with GAAP. Although GAAP requires that we report on our results for these periods separately, management views our operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 by combining the results of the 2021 Successor Period, Current Predecessor Quarter and Current Predecessor YTD Period because management believes such presentation provides the most meaningful comparison of our results to prior periods. We do not believe reviewing these periods in isolation would be useful in identifying any trends in or reaching any conclusions regarding our overall operating performance. We believe the key performance indicators such as operating revenues and operating expenses for the 2021 Successor Period combined with Current Predecessor Quarter and Current Predecessor YTD period provide more meaningful comparisons to other periods and are useful in understanding operational trends. Additionally, there were no changes in policies between the periods and any material impacts as a result of fresh start accounting were included within the discussion of these changes. These combined results do not comply with GAAP and have not been prepared as pro forma results under applicable regulations, but are presented because we believe they provide the most meaningful comparison of our results to prior periods.
Recent Developments
Emergence from voluntary reorganization under Chapter 11
On November 13, 2020, we and our subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The Chapter 11 Cases were being administered jointly under the caption In re Gulfport Energy Corporation, et al., Case No. 20-35562 (DRJ). The Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan and entered the confirmation order on April 28, 2021, and the Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases on the Emergence Date. On May 18, 2021, we began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "GPOR".

Although we are no longer a debtor-in-possession, we operated as debtors-in-possession through the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. See Note 1 and Note 2 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this report for a complete discussion of the Chapter 11 Cases.

As a result of our business continuity measures, we have not experienced significant disruptions in executing our business operations in the first and second quarters of 2020.due to COVID-19. While we havedid not experiencedexperience significant disruptions to our operations in 2020,the first half of 2021, we are unable to predict the impact on our business, including our cash flows, liquidity, and results of operations in future periods due to numerous uncertainties. There is considerable uncertainty regarding the extent to which COVID-19 will continue to spread and the extent and duration of governmental and other measures implemented to slow the spread of the virus, such as large-scale travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business and government shutdowns. Restrictions of this nature may cause, us, our suppliers and other business counterparties to experience operational delays, or delays in the delivery of materials and supplies. We expect the principal areas of operational risk for us are the availability and reliability of service providers and potential supply chain disruption. TheAdditionally, the operations of our midstream service providers, on whom we rely for the transmission, gathering and processing of a significant portion of our produced natural gas, NGL and oil, may be disrupted or suspended in response to containing the outbreak, or the difficult economic environment may lead to the bankruptcy or closing of the facilities and infrastructure of our midstream service providers. This may result in substantial discount in the prices we receive for our produced natural gas, NGL and oil or result in the shut-in of producing wells or the delay or discontinuance of development plans for our properties.
One of the impacts of the pandemic has been a significant reduction in global demand for oil and natural gas. The significant decline in demand has been met with a sharp decline in oil prices following the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, and other foreign, oil-exporting countries. The resulting supply/demand imbalance is having disruptive impacts on the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry and on other industries that serve exploration and production companies. These industry conditions, coupled with those resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, could lead to significant global economic contraction generally and in our industry in particular. We expect to see continued volatility in oil and natural gas prices for the foreseeable future, which may, over the long term, adversely impact our business. A significant decline in demand or prices for oil and natural gas would have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.
Because of the sharp decline in oil prices since early March 2020, we chose to shut in a portion of our operated low margin, liquids-weighted production during the second quarter of 2020, largely consisting of legacy vertical production in the SCOOP. We also experienced shut ins across both the SCOOP and Utica from our non-operated partners. Nearly all liquids-weighted volumes on both our operated assets and those of our non-operated partners have returned to production. A sharp decline in prices or a pro-longed depressed environment may result in additional future shut ins. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic

creates risks of delays in new drilling and completion activities that could negatively impact us, our non-operated partners or our service providers.
We cannot predict the full impact that COVID-19 or the significant disruption and volatility currently being experienced in the oil and natural gas markets will have on our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations at this time, due to numerous uncertainties. The ultimate impacts will depend on future developments including, among others, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the consequences of governmental and other measures designed to prevent the spread of the virus, the development of effective treatments, the duration of the outbreak, actions taken by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, governmental authorities, customers, suppliers and other thirds parties, workforce availability, and the timing and extent to which normal economic and operating conditions resume. For additional discussionWhile we have seen meaningful recovery in demand during the second half 2020 and into 2021, significant uncertainty remains regarding risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” in this report.
Also, in response to the current commodity price environment, we announced tiered salary reduction for most employees, senior management teamduration and our Board of Directors with such measures expected to last through December 2020. In addition, select furloughs were implemented to reduce costs and preserve liquidity. We continue to evaluate ways to reduce our cost structure in an effort to improve profitability during this economic and commodity price downturn.
As noted above, decreased demand for oil and natural gas as a resultextent of the COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying decrease in commodity prices has significantly reduced our ability to access capital markets and to refinance our existing indebtedness. Further, these conditions have made amendments or waivers to our revolving credit facility more difficult to obtain and available on terms less favorable to us. If depressed commodity prices persist or decline further, the borrowing base under our revolving credit facility could be further reduced at our next scheduled redetermination date in November 2020. Any such reduction would constrain our liquidity and may impair our ability to fund our planned capital expenditures and meet our obligations under our existing indebtedness. Further, a reduction in our capital expenditures would decrease our production, revenues, operating cash flow and EBITDA, which could limit our ability to comply with the restrictive covenants in our revolving credit facility and other existing indebtedness. Finally, our existing revolving credit facility matures in December 2021 and therefore will become a current liability at year end 2020 unless we are able to refinance the credit facility with a new credit facility or other financing. Considering the current stateimpact of the first lien market and our elevated leverage profile, there is substantial risk that a refinancing will not be available to us on reasonable terms. A current liability under the revolving credit facility at year end 2020 may result in a qualified audit opinion which could result in a default under the terms of the current revolving credit facility. As a result of these uncertainties and other factors, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to meet our obligations under our existing indebtedness or failure to comply with any of our covenants, if not waived, would result in an event of default under such indebtedness and result in the potential acceleration of outstanding indebtedness thereunder and, with respect to the revolving credit facility, the potential foreclosurepandemic on the collateral securing such debt,energy industry, including demand and could cause a cross-default under our other outstanding indebtedness.commodities pricing.
As of June 30, 2020, we had entered into firm transportation contracts to deliver approximately 1,455,000 MMBtu per day for the remainder of 2020 and 2021, respectively. Under these firm transportation contracts, we are obligated to deliver minimum daily volumes or pay fees for any deficiencies in deliveries. As a result of the reduced production from our Utica Shale or SCOOP acreage due to decreased developmental activities, taking into consideration the current low commodity price environment, we expect that we will be unable to meet our obligations under the existing firm transportation contracts, resulting in fees, which may be significant and may have a material adverse effect on our operations.
20202021 Operational and Financial Highlights
Despite the challenges our company and the entire upstream energy industry faces from low commodity prices, we have remained committed to the execution of our strategy and to position Gulfport for long-term success. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020,Current Combined Quarter, we had the following notable achievements:
Continued our efforts to improve our balance sheet by reducing long-term debt by approximately $70 million as compared to December 31, 2019 primarily through discounted bond repurchases.Emerged from Chapter 11 proceedings.
ContinuedWe continued to improve operational efficiencies and reduce drilling and completion costs in both our SCOOP and Utica operating areas. In the Utica, our average spud to rig release time was 18.518.1 days in the first half of 2020,Current Combined Quarter, which was a 6%3% improvement from full year 2019 levels. In the SCOOP, our average spud to rig release time was 37 days, representing a 32% improvement compared to full year 20192020 levels.
Closed on the saleWe have continued to decrease costs as a result of our SCOOP water infrastructure assets on January 2, 2020. We received $50.0 millionongoing cost reduction initiatives highlighted by a 13% decrease in cash upon closing and have an opportunitylease operating expenses per Mcfe for the Current Combined Quarter as compared to earn additional incentive payments over the next 15 years, subject to ourPrior Predecessor Quarter.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
49
Comparison of the Three Month Periods Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
We reported a net loss of $561.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to net income of $235.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Included in the loss for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was a $532.9 million non-cash impairment of our oil and natural gas properties, which primarily resulted from a significant decrease in the trailing twelve month first of month prices of natural gas, oil and NGL, and was the main driver of the change in our net (loss) income during the period. Additionally, pricing for all of our commodities decreased significantly during the second quarter of 2020, resulting in a $182.4 million decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales and a $144.2 million decrease in gain on natural gas, oil and NGL derivatives. This increase in loss is partially offset by a $125.5 million decrease in loss from equity method investments, a $60.2 million decrease in DD&A, a $34.3 million gain on debt extinguishment, a $12.0 million decrease in midstream gathering and processing expenses, a $6.7 million decrease in lease operating expenses and a $4.5 million decrease in production taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Depreciation,The increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") expense consisted of our oil and gas properties for the Successor Period compared to the Current Predecessor Quarter resulted from the revaluation of our properties subject to amortization in connection with our emergence from bankruptcy. Fresh start accounting requires that new fair values be established for our assets as of the emergence date. See $62.2 millionNote 3 for more information on our fresh-start valuation adjustments.
The decrease in depletionDD&A of oil and natural gas properties and $2.6 millionin depreciation of other property and equipment, compared to $122.5 million in depletion of oil and natural gas properties and $2.5 million in depreciation of other property and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in DD&Apredecessor period was due to both a decrease in our depletion rate as a result of a decrease in our amortization base from full cost ceiling test impairments recorded during 2019 and the first quarter ofthroughout 2020, as well as a decrease in our production.
Impairment of Oil and Gas Properties. DuringProperties
As a result of the three months endedceiling test performed at June 30, 2020,2021, we incurred a$532.9 $117.8 million impairment charge of oil and natural gas properties impairment charge related primarily toduring the decline in the twelve month trailing first of month average price for natural gas, oil and NGL, compared to noSuccessor Period, while we recorded a $532.9 million impairment charge of oil and gas properties during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Based on prices for2020. Upon the last nine months and the short-term pricing outlook for the third quarterapplication of 2020, we expect to recognize an additional full cost impairment in the third quarter of 2020. The amount of any future impairments is difficult to predict as it depends on changes in commodity prices, production rates, proved reserves, evaluation of costs excluded from amortization, future development costs and production costs.

Income Taxes
The income tax benefit of $8.0 million that was recognized for the Current Predecessor Quarter in our consolidated statement of operations is a result of an Oklahoma refund claim associated with an examination relating to historical tax returns . We recorded nodid not record any income tax expense for three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to income tax benefitthe Successor Period as a result of $179.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, we hadmaintaining a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1.5 billion, in addition to numerous temporary differences, which gave rise to afull valuation allowance against our net deferred tax asset. Quarterly, management performs a forecastFor the Prior Predecessor Quarter, we had an effective tax rate of our taxable income0% and analyzes other relevant factorstax expense of zero due to determine whether it is more likely than not that athe Company’s valuation allowance is needed, looking at both positive and negative factors. A valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets is established if, in management’s opinion, it is more likely than not that some portion will not be realized. At June 30, 2020, a valuation allowance of $879.3 million has been maintained against the full net deferred tax asset. The tax benefit recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was a result of management's determination there was sufficient positive evidence that it was more likely than not that the federal and some state net operating loss carryforwards would be realized.
On April 30, 2020, our Board of Directors approved the adoption of a tax benefits preservation plan that is intended to protect value by preserving our ability to use our tax attributes, such as NOLs, to offset potential future income taxes for federal income tax purposes. See Note 14 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for more information.

Comparison of the Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2020Successor Period and 2019
We reported net loss of $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as comparedCurrent Predecessor YTD Period Compared to net income of $297.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Included in the loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was a $1.1 billion non-cash impairment of our oil and natural gas properties which primarily resulted from a significant decrease in the trailing twelve month first of month prices of natural gas, oil and NGL, and was the main driver of the change in our net (loss) income during the period. Additionally, pricing for all of our commodities decreased significantly, resulting in a $374.4 million decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales and a $25.9 million decrease in gain on natural gas, oil and NGL derivatives. The remaining variance related to a $4.9 million increase in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by a $110.5 million decrease in loss from equity method investments, including a $125.4 million impairment related to our investment in Mammoth Energy, a $100.6 million decrease in DD&A, a $49.6 million gain on debt extinguishment, a $24.4 million decrease in midstream gathering and processing expenses, a $10.5 million decrease in lease operating expenses and a $7.6 million decrease in production taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

The increase in natural gas sales without the impact of derivatives was due to a 58% increase in realized natural gas prices partially offset by a 5% decrease in sales volumes. The realized price change was driven by the significant increase in the average Henry Hub gas index from $1.80 in the Prior Predecessor YTD Period to $3.22 during the Current Combined YTD Period.
The increase in oil and condensate sales without the impact of derivatives was due to a 76% increase in realized prices and partially offset by a 16% decrease in sales volumes. The realized price change was driven by the significant increase in the average WTI crude index from $36.58 per barrel in the Prior Predecessor YTD Period to $62.21 per barrel during the Current Combined YTD Period.
The increase in NGL sales without the impact of derivatives was due to a 136% increase in realized prices partially offset by an 18% decrease in NGL sales volumes.

Table of other property and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Contents

The decrease in DD&A of oil and gas properties in the predecessor period was due to both a decrease in our depletion rate as a result of a decrease in our amortization base from full cost ceiling test impairments recorded during 2019 and the first quarter of 2019throughout 2020, as well as a decrease in our production.
Impairment of Oil and Gas Properties. DuringProperties
As a result of the six months endedceiling test performed at June 30, 2020,2021, we incurred $1.1 billion of oil and natural gas properties impairment charges related primarily to the decline in the twelve month trailing first of month average price for natural gas, oil and NGL compared to noa $117.8 million impairment charge of oil and gas properties during the six months endedSuccessor Period. We recorded $1.1 billion in impairment charges of oil and gas properties during the Prior Predecessor YTD Period. Upon the application of fresh start accounting, the value of our oil and natural gas properties was determined using forward strip oil and natural gas prices as of the emergence date. These prices were higher than the 12-month weighted average prices used in the full cost ceiling limitation at June 30, 2019.2021, which led to the Successor Period impairment charge.

This increase was partially offset by lower employee costs resulting from the reduction in workforce that was completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. Additionally, in June 2020, in response to the continued depressed commodity price environment, we announced several G&A initiatives to reduce our corporate cost structure. The decrease in capitalized general and administrative expenses was due to lower development activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

We recorded income tax expense of 7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared toan income tax benefit of 179.3$8.0 million during the Current Predecessor YTD Period as a result of an Oklahoma refund claim associated with an examination relating to historical tax returns .

Quarterly, management performs a forecastFor the Prior Predecessor YTD Period, we had an effective tax rate of our taxable income0.7% and analyzes other relevant factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that a valuation allowance is needed, looking at both positive and negative factors. A valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets is established if, in management’s opinion, it is more likely than not that some portion will not be realized. At June 30, 2020, a valuation allowance of $879.3 million has been maintained against the full net deferred tax asset. Income tax expense recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020 is related to the recognition of a valuation allowance against a state deferred tax asset during the first quarter of 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview. We strive to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure financial flexibility, withstand commodity price volatility and fund our development projects, operations and capital expenditures and return capital to shareholders. We utilize derivative contracts to reduce the financial impact of commodity price volatility and provide a level of certainty to the Company's cash flows. Historically, we have generally funded our operations, planned capital expenditures, debt repurchases and share repurchases with cash flow from our operating activities, cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We also periodically access debt and equity markets and sell properties to enhance our liquidity.

For the Successor Period, our primary sources of capital resources and liquidity have consisted of internally generated cash flows from operations, and our primary uses of cash have been for development of our oil and natural gas properties. Historically, our primary sources of capital funding and liquidity have been our operating cash flow, borrowings under our revolving credit facilityagreements and issuances of equity and debt securities. Our ability to issue additional indebtedness, dispose of assets or access these sources of funds can be significantly impacted by changes inthe capital markets decreaseswas substantially limited or nonexistent during the Chapter 11 Cases and required court approval in commodity prices and decreasesmost instances. Accordingly, our liquidity in our production levels.
In 2020, decreased demand for oil and natural gas as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying decrease in commodity prices has significantly reduced our ability to access capital markets and to refinance our existing indebtedness. Further, these conditions have made amendments or waivers to our revolving credit facility more difficult to obtainPredecessor periods depended mainly on cash generated from operating activities and available funds under the DIP Credit Facility in the 2021 Predecessor Period and Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Facility in the 2020 Predecessor Period.
We believe our annual free cash flow generation, borrowing capacity under the Exit Credit Facility, and cash on terms less favorable to us. If depressed commodity prices persist or decline further, the borrowing base under our revolving credit facility could be further reduced at our next scheduled redetermination date in November 2020. Any such reduction would constrain ourhand will provide sufficient liquidity and may impair our ability to fund our plannedoperations, capital expenditures, interest expense, debt repayments and meet our obligationsany quarterly cash dividend payments, if declared by the Board during the next 12 months. To the extent that we sell assets in the future, we plan to use the proceeds to fund on-going operations, reduce debt and for general corporate purposes.
As of June 30, 2021, we had $9.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, $105.0 million of borrowings under our existing indebtedness. Further, a reduction inExit Facility, $180.0 million of borrowings under our capital expenditures would decreaseFirst-Out Term Loan, $114.8 million of letters of credit outstanding, and $550 million of outstanding 2026 Notes. Our total principal amount of funded debt as of June 30, 2021 was $835.0 million. As of August 2, 2021, we had available liquidity of $161.9 million. To the extent actual operating results, realized commodity prices or uses of cash differ from our production, revenues, operating cash flow and EBITDA, whichassumptions, our liquidity could limit our ability to comply with the restrictive covenants in our revolving credit facility and other existing indebtedness.be adversely affected. See Finally, our existing revolving credit facility matures in December 2021 and therefore will become a current liability at year end 2020 unless we are able to refinance the credit facility with a new credit facility or other financing. Considering the current stateNote 5 of the first lien market andnotes to our elevated leverage profile, there is substantial risk that a refinancing will not be available to us on reasonable terms. A current liability under the revolving credit facility at year end 2020 may result in a qualified audit opinion which could result in a default under the terms of the current revolving credit facility. As a result of these uncertainties and other factors, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to meet our obligations under our existing indebtedness or failure to comply with any of our covenants, if not waived, would result in an event of default under such indebtedness and result in the potential acceleration of outstanding indebtedness thereunder and, with respect to the revolving credit facility, the

potential foreclosure on the collateral securing such debt, and could cause a cross-default under our other outstanding indebtedness.

As of June 30, 2020, we had a cash balance of $2.8 million compared to $6.1 million as of December 31, 2019, and a net working capital deficit of $176.2 million as of June 30, 2020, compared to a net working capital deficit of $145.3 million as of December 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, our working capital deficit includes $0.6 million of debt due in the next 12 months. Our total principal debt as of June 30, 2020 was $1.9 billion compared to $2.0 billion as of December 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, we had $252.9 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility, with outstanding borrowings of $123.0 million and $324.1 million utilized for various letters of credit.  See Note 5 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt obligations, including principal and carrying amounts of our notes.
Post-Emergence Debt. On the Emergence Date, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, we entered into a reserve-based credit agreement providing for the Exit Credit Facility, which features an initial borrowing base of $580.0 million. The Exit Credit Facility consists of the Exit Facility and the First-Out Term Loan. The borrowing base will be redetermined semiannually on or around May 1 and November 1 of each year. The next scheduled redetermination will be on or around November 1, 2021.
The Exit Facility provides for a $150.0 million sublimit of the aggregate commitments that is available for the issuance of letters of credit. The Exit Facility also includes a $40 million availability blocker that remains in place until Successful Midstream Resolution (as defined in the Exit Credit Agreement), as discussed in Note 9. The Exit Facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at our election, either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that varies from 3.00% to 4.00% per annum or (b) a base rate plus an applicable margin that varies from 2.00% to 3.00% per annum. The First-Out Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at Gulfport’s election, either (a) LIBOR (subject to a 1.00% floor) plus 4.50% or (b) a base rate (subject to a 2.00% floor) plus 3.50%. As of June 30, 2021, the Exit Facility and the First-Out Term Loan Facility bore interest at weighted average rates of 4.50% and 5.50%, respectively.
Additionally, on the Emergence Date, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, we issued $550 million aggregate principal amount of our Successor Senior Notes.
The Successor Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company's subsidiaries that guarantee the Exit Credit Facility.
See Note 5 for additional discussion of our post-emergence debt.
Preferred Dividends. As discussed in Note 6 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements, holders of New Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly dividends at a rate of 10% per annum of the Liquidation Preference (as defined below) with respect to cash dividends and 15% per annum of the Liquidation Preference with respect to dividends paid in kind as additional shares of New Preferred Stock (“PIK Dividends”). Gulfport must pay PIK Dividends for so long as the quotient obtained by dividing (i) Total Net Funded Debt (as defined in the Exit Credit Facility) by (ii) the last twelve (12) months of EBITDAX (as defined in the Exit Credit Facility) calculated as at the applicable record date is equal to or greater than 1.50. If such ratio is less than 1.50 such dividend may be paid in either cash or as PIK Dividends, subject to certain conditions.
On June 30, 2021, the company paid dividends on its New Preferred Stock, which included 1,006 shares of New Preferred Stock paid in kind and approximately $25 thousand of cash-in-lieu of fractional shares.
Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information. The Successor Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all existing consolidated subsidiaries that guarantee our Exit Facility or certain other debt (the “Guarantors”). The Senior Notes are not guaranteed by Grizzly Holdings or Mule Sky, LLC (the “Non-Guarantors”). The Guarantors are 100% owned by the Parent, and the guarantees are full, unconditional, joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Parent or the Guarantors to obtain funds from each other in the form of a dividend or loan. The guarantees rank equally in the right of payment with all of the senior indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantors and senior in the right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantors.The Successor Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of our and the subsidiary guarantors' secured indebtedness (including all borrowings and other obligations under our amended and restated credit agreement) to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness, and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of any of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Successor Senior Notes.

SEC Regulation S-X Rule 13-01 requires the presentation of "Summarized Financial Information" to replace the "Condensed Consolidating Financial Information" required under Rule 3-10. Rule 13-01 allows the omission of Summarized Financial Information if assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Guarantors are not materially different than the corresponding amounts presented in our consolidated financial statements. The Parent and Guarantor subsidiaries comprise our material operations. Therefore, we concluded that the presentation of the Summarized Financial Information is not required as our Summarized Financial Information of the Guarantors is not materially different from our consolidated financial statements.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities. Our results of operations and cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for natural gas, oil and NGL. To mitigate a portion of the exposure to adverse market changes, we have entered into various

See Note 10 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of derivatives and hedging activities. Additionally, as discussed in Note 16, we brought forward the value of our oil swaps by monetizing our remaining position in April 2020 and entered into additional contracts to hedge our remaining 2020 and 2021 production in April and May 2020.
Credit Facility. We have entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility, as amended, with The Bank of Nova Scotia, as the lead arranger and administrative agent and other lenders. The credit agreement provides for a maximum facility amount of $1.5 billion and matures on December 13, 2021. As of June 30, 2020, we had a borrowing base and elected commitment of $700.0 million and $123.0 million in borrowings outstanding. Total funds available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility, after giving effect to an aggregate of $324.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, were $252.9 million as of June 30, 2020. This facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. Our wholly owned subsidiaries, excluding Grizzly Holdings Inc. ("Grizzly Holdings") and Mule Sky LLC ("Mule Sky"), guarantee our obligations under our revolving credit facility.
Our revolving credit facility contains customary negative covenants including, but not limited to, restrictions on our and our subsidiaries’ ability to: incur indebtedness; grant liens; pay dividends and make other restricted payments; agree to payment restrictions affecting our restricted subsidiaries; make investments; undertake fundamental changes including selling all or substantially all of our assets; enter into swap contracts and forward sales contracts; dispose of assets; change the nature of their business; enter into transactions with their affiliates; and engage in certain transactions with restricted subsidiaries. The negative covenants are subject to certain exceptions as specified in our revolving credit facility. Our revolving credit facility also contains certain affirmative covenants, including, but not limited to the following financial covenants: (1) the ratio of Net Secured Debt to EBITDAX (as defined under the revolving credit agreement) may not be greater than 2.00 to 1.00 for the
55

Table of Contents

twelve-month period of the end of each fiscal quarter; and (2) the ratio of EBITDAX to interest expense for the twelve-month period at the end of each fiscal quarter may not be less than 3.00 to 1.00. On May 1, 2020, we entered into a fifteenth amendment to our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As part of the amendment, our borrowing base and elected commitment were reduced from $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively, to $700.0 million. Additionally, the amendment added the requirement to maintain a ratio of Net Secured Debt to EBITDAX as described above, deferred the requirement to maintain a ratio of Net Funded Debt to EBITDAX of 4.00 to 1.00 until September 30, 2021, and added a limitation on the repurchase of unsecured notes, among other amendments. We were in compliance with these financial covenants at June 30, 2020.
On July 27, 2020, we entered into the sixteenth amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The sixteenth amendment allows us to issue up to $750 million in second lien debt subject to certain conditions.
Senior Notes.We used borrowings under our revolving credit facility to repurchase in the open market approximately $47.5 million and $73.3 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding Notes for $12.6 million and $22.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, this included approximately $4.9 million principal amount of the 2023 Notes, $16.3 million principal amount of the 2024 Notes, $13.5 million principal amount of the 2025 Notes, and $12.8 million principal amount of the 2026 Notes. We recognized a $34.3 million and $49.6 million gain on debt extinguishment, which included retirement of unamortized issuance costs and fees associated with the repurchased debt, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
Subject to restrictions in our own revolving credit facility, we may use a combination of cash and borrowing under our
revolving credit facility to retire our outstanding debt, through privately negotiated transactions, open market repurchases,
redemptions, tender offers or otherwise, but we are under no obligation to do so.

Capital Expenditures. Our capital commitmentsexpenditures have historically been primarily forrelated to the execution of our drilling programs and discounted repurchases of our senior notes.completion activities in addition to certain lease acquisition activities. Our capital investment strategy is focused on prudently developing our existing properties to generate sustainable cash flow considering current and forecasted commodity prices while also selectively pursuing mergers or acquisitions in our current operating regions in an effort to gain scale and deepen our drilling inventory.prices.
Our capital expenditures for 20202021 are currently estimated to be in the range of $265.0$270 million to $285.0$290 million for drilling and completion expenditures. In addition, we currently expect to spend $20.0 million to $25.0approximately $20 million in 20202021 for non-drilling and completion expenditures, which includes acreage expenses, primarily lease extensions in the Utica Shale. The midpoint
Proceeds from Issuance of Preferred Stock. On the 2020 rangeEmergence Date, pursuant to the Plan, we conducted a Rights Offering and issued and issued 50,000 shares of capital expenditures is more than 50% lower thanNew Preferred Stock at $1,000 per share to holders of claims against the $602.5Predecessor Subsidiaries, raising $50 million spent in 2019, primarily due to our decision to reduce capital activity in response to lower commodity prices, specifically natural gas prices, and our desire to fund our capital development program primarily with cash flow from operations. As a result of our decreased capital spending program for 2020 and the impact of our 2019 property divestitures, we expect our production volumes in 2020 to be approximately 22% to 27% lower than 2019. Coupled with forecasted lower commodity prices, we expect 2020 revenues, operating cash flows and EBITDA to be significantly lower in 2020 as compared to 2019.
We continually monitor market conditions and are prepared to adjust our drilling program if commodity prices dictate. Currently, we believe that our cash flow from operations, cash on hand and borrowing base availability under our revolving credit agreement will be sufficient to meet our normal recurring operating needs and capital requirements for the next twelve months. We have the ability to react quickly to changing commodity prices and accelerate or decelerate our activity within our operating areas as market conditions warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event commodity prices decline from current levels or our capital or other costs increase we may be required to obtain additional funds which we would seek to do through borrowings, offerings of debt or equity securities or other means, including the sale of assets. To the extent that access to capital and other financial markets is adversely affected by the effects of COVID-19, the Company may need to consider alternative sources of funding for some of its operations and for working capital, which may increase the cost of, as well as adversely impact access to, capital. We regularly evaluate merger, acquisition and divestiture opportunities. Capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all in the future. Further, if we are unable to obtain funds when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay or curtail implementation of our business plan or not be able to complete acquisitions that may be favorable to us. If the current low commodity price environment worsens, our revenues, cash flows, results of operations, liquidity and reserves may be materially and adversely affected.proceeds.
Cash Flow from Operating Activities. Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $38.4 million for the Successor Period and $172.2 million for the Current Predecessor YTD Period as compared to $247.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $399.8 million for the same period in 2019. ThisPrior Predecessor YTD Period. These decrease waswere primarily the result of a significant decreasereorganization items related to our Chapter 11 Cases, offset partially by an increase in cash receipts from our oil and natural gas purchasers due to increased realized gas prices as well as decreases in our production volumes.commodities pricing.

Divestitures. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we divested our SCOOP water infrastructure assets and received $50.0 million in cash upon closing and have an opportunity to earn additional incentive payments over the next 15 years, subject to our ability to meet certain thresholds which will be driven by, among other things, our future development program and future water production levels. Proceeds from the divestiture were used to reduce our outstanding revolver balance. See Note 3 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Natural Gas, Oil and Natural Gas Liquids Derivative Instruments. Our results of operations and cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for natural gas, oil and NGL. To mitigate a portion of our exposure to adverse price changes, we have entered into various derivative instruments. Our natural gas, oil and NGL derivative activities, when combined with our sales of natural gas, oil and NGL, allow us to predict with greater certainty the revenue we will receive. We believe our derivative instruments continue to be highly effective in achieving our risk management objectives.
Our general strategy for protecting short-term cash flow and attempting to mitigate exposure to adverse natural gas, oil and NGL price changes is to hedge into strengthening natural gas, oil and NGL futures markets when prices reach levels that management believes are unsustainable for the long term, have material downside risk in the short term or provide reasonable rates of return on our invested capital. Information we consider in forming an opinion about future prices includes general economic conditions, industrial output levels and expectations, producer breakeven cost structures, liquefied natural gas trends, oil and natural gas storage inventory levels, industry decline rates for base production and weather trends. Executive management is involved in all risk management activities and the Board of Directors reviews

our derivative program at its quarterly board meetings. We believe we have sufficient internal controls to prevent unauthorized trading.
We use derivative instruments to achieve our risk management objectives, including swaps, options and costless collars. All of these are described in more detail below. We typically use swaps for a large portion of the oil and natural gas price risk we hedge. We have also sold calls, taking advantage of premiums associated with market price volatility.
We determine the notional volume potentially subject to derivative contracts by reviewing our overall estimated future production levels, which are derived from extensive examination of existing producing reserve estimates and estimates of likelyestimated production from new drilling. Production forecasts are updated at least monthly and adjusted if necessary to actual results and activity levels. We do not enter into derivative contracts for volumes in excess of our share of forecasted production, and if production estimates were lowered for future periods and derivative instruments are already executed for some volume above the new production forecasts, the positions would beare typically reversed. The actual fixed priceprices on our derivative instruments is derived from the reference NYMEX price,prices from 3rd party indices such as reflected in current NYMEX trading. The pricing dates of our derivative contracts follow NYMEX futures.NYMEX. All of our commodity derivative instruments are net settled based on the difference between the fixed price as stated in the contract and the floating-price, resulting in a net amount due to or from the counterparty.
We review our derivative positions continuously and if future market conditions change and prices are at levels we believe could jeopardize the effectiveness of a position, we will mitigate this risk by either negotiating a cash settlement with our counterparty, restructuring the position or entering a new trade that effectively reverses the current position. The factors we consider in closing or restructuring a position before the settlement date are identical to those we review when deciding to enter the original derivative position. Gains or losses related to closed positions will be recognized in the month specified in the original contract.
We have determined the fair value of our derivative instruments utilizing established index prices, volatility curves, discount factors and discount factors.option pricing models. These estimates are compared to counterparty valuations for reasonableness. Derivative transactions are also subject to the risk that counterparties will be unable to meet their obligations. This non-performance risk is considered in the valuation of our derivative instruments, but to date has not had a material impact on the values of our derivatives. Future risk related to counterparties not being able to meet their obligations has been partially mitigated under our commodity hedging arrangements that require counterparties to post collateral if their obligations to us are in excess of defined thresholds. The values we report in our financial statements are as of a point in time and subsequently change as these estimates are revised to reflect actual results, changes in market conditions and other factors. See Note 10 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the fair value measurements associated with our derivatives.
As of June 30, 2020,2021, our natural gas, oil and NGL derivative instruments consisted of the following types of instruments:
Swaps: We receive a fixed price and pay a floating market price to the counterparty for the hedged commodity. In exchange for higher fixed prices on certain of our swap trades, we may sell call options.
Basis Swaps: These instruments are arrangements that guarantee a fixed price differential to NYMEX from a specified delivery point. We receive the fixed price differential and pay the floating market price differential to the counterparty for the hedged commodity.

Call Options: We sell, and occasionally buy, call options in exchange for a premium. At the time of settlement, if the market price exceeds the fixed price of the call option, we pay the counterparty the excess on sold call options, and we receive the excess on bought call options. If the market price settles below the fixed price of the call option, no payment is due from either party.
Costless Collars: These instruments have a set floor and ceiling price for the hedged production. If the applicable monthly price indices are outside of the ranges set by the floor and ceiling prices in the various collars, we will cash-settle the difference with the counterparty.
To mitigate the effects of commodity price fluctuations on our oil and natural gas production, we had the following open fixed price swap positions at June 30, 2020:2021:

Under our 2020 contracts, we have hedged approximately 59% to 63% of our estimated 2020 production. SuchOur hedge arrangements may expose us to risk of financial loss in certain circumstances, including instances where production is less than expected or commodity prices increase. At June 30, 2020,2021, we had a net assetliability derivative position of $3.3$301.0 million as compared to a net asset derivative position of $139.5$3.3 million as of June 30, 2019, related to our hedging portfolio.2020. Utilizing actual derivative contractual volumes, a 10% increase in underlying commodity prices would have reduced the fair value of these instruments by approximately $48.8$160.3 million, while a 10% decrease in underlying commodity prices would have increased the fair value of these instruments by approximately $43.1$145.1 million. However, any realized derivative gain or loss would be substantially offset by a decrease or increase, respectively, in the actual sales value of production covered by the derivative instrument.
Interest Rate Risk. Our revolving amended and restated credit agreement is structured under floating rate terms, as advances under this facility may be in the form of either base rate loans or eurodollar loans. As such, our interest expense is sensitive to fluctuations in the prime rates in the United States, or, if the eurodollar rates are elected, the eurodollar rates. At June 30, 2020,2021, we had $123.0$105.0 million in borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facilityExit Facility which bore interest at a weighted average rate of 2.44%4.50%. At June 30, 2021, we had $180.0 million in borrowings outstanding under our First-Out Term Loan which bore interest at a weighted average rate of 5.50%. As of June 30, 2020,2021, we did not have any interest rate swaps to hedge our interest rate risks.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Control and Procedures. Under the directionsupervision of our Chief Executive Officer and President and our Chief Financial Officer, and with participation of management, we have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The disclosure controls and procedures are also intended to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and President and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

PART II
ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Litigation and Regulatory Proceedings
We are involved in a number of litigation and regulatory proceedings including those described below. Many of these proceedings are in early stages, and many of them seek or may seek damages and penalties, the amount of which is indeterminate. Our total accrued liabilities in respect of litigation and regulatory proceedings is determined on a case-by-case basis and represents an estimate of probable losses after considering, among other factors, the progress of each case or proceeding, its experience and the experience of others in similar cases or proceedings, and the opinions and views of legal counsel. Significant judgment is required in making these estimates and their final liabilities may ultimately be materially different.
We, along with a number of other oil and gas companies, have been named as a defendant in two separate complaints, one filed by the State of Louisiana and the Parish of Cameron in the 38th Judicial District Court for the Parish of Cameron on February 9, 2016 and the other filed by the State of Louisiana and the District Attorney for the 15th Judicial District of the State of Louisiana in the 15th Judicial District Court for the Parish of Vermilion on July 29, 2016 (together, the "Complaints"). The Complaints allege that certain of the defendants’ operations violated the State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act of 1978, as amended, and the rules, regulations, orders and ordinances adopted thereunder (the "CZM Laws") by causing substantial damage to land and waterbodies located in the coastal zone of the relevant Parish. The plaintiffs seek damages and other appropriate relief under the CZM Laws, including the payment of costs necessary to clear, re-vegetate, detoxify and otherwise restore the affected coastal zone of the relevant Parish to its original condition, actual restoration of such coastal zone to its original condition, and the payment of reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses and interest. The United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana issued orders remanding the cases to their respective state court, and the defendants have appealed the remand orders to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.
In July 2019, Pigeon Land Company, Inc., a successor in interest to certain of our legacy Louisiana properties, filed an action against us and many other oil and gas companies in the 16th Judicial District Court for the Parish of Iberia in Louisiana. The suit alleges negligence, strict liability and various violations of Louisiana statutes relating to property damage in connection with the historic development of our Louisiana properties and seeks unspecified damages (including punitive damages), an injunction to return the affected property to its original condition, and the payment of reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses and interest.
In September 2019, a stockholder of Mammoth Energy filed a derivative action on behalf of Mammoth Energy against members of Mammoth Energy’s board of directors, including a director designated by us, and its significant stockholders, including us, in the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the members of Mammoth Energy’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties and violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in connection with Mammoth Energy’s activities in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria. The complaint seeks unspecified damages, the payment of reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses and interest and to force Mammoth Energy and its board of directors to make specified corporate governance reforms.
In October 2019, Kelsie Wagner, in her capacity as trustee of various trusts and on behalf of the trusts and other similarly situated royalty owners, filed an action against us in the District Court of Grady County, Oklahoma.  The suit alleges that we underpaid royalty owners and seeks unspecified damages for violations of the Oklahoma Production Revenue Standards Act and fraud.
In March 2020, Robert F. Woodley, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a federal securities class action against us, David M. Wood, Keri Crowell and Quentin R. Hicks in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges that we made materially false and misleading statements regarding our business and operations in violation of the federal securities laws and seeks unspecified damages, the payment of reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees and other costs, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and such other and further relief that may be deemed just and proper.
In June 2020, Sam L. Carter, derivatively on behalf of the Company, filed an action against certain of our current and former executive officers and directors in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company in connection with certain alleged materially false and misleading statements regarding our business and operations in violation of the federal securities laws. The complaint seeks to

recover unspecified damages from the defendants, the implementation of specified corporate governance reforms, reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees, costs and expenses, and such other relief as may be deemed just and proper.

In December 2019, we filed a lawsuit against Stingray Pressure Pumping LLC, a subsidiary of Mammoth Energy (“Stingray”), for breach of contract and to terminate the Master Services Agreement for pressure pumping services, effective as of October 1, 2014, as amended (the “Master Services Agreement”), between Stingray and us. In March 2020, Stingray filed a counterclaim against us in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware. The counterclaim alleges that we have breached the Master Services Agreement. The counterclaim seeks actual damages, which the complaint calculates to be approximately 28 million as of June 2020 (such amount to increase each month), the payment of reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses and pre- and post-judgment interest as allowed, and such other and further relief which it may be justly entitled.
In April 2020, Bryon Lefort, individually and on behalf of similarly situated individuals, filed an action against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio Eastern Division. The complaint alleges that we violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), the Ohio Wage Act and the Ohio Prompt Pay Act by classifying the plaintiffs as independent contractors and paying them a daily rate with no overtime compensation for hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week. The complaint seeks to recover unpaid regular and overtime wages, liquidated damages in an amount equal to six percent of all unpaid overtime compensation, the payment of reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses and pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and such other damages that may be owed to the workers.
These cases are still in their early stages. As a result, we have not had the opportunity to evaluate the allegations made in the plaintiffs' complaints and intend to vigorously defend the suits.
SEC Investigation
The SEC has commenced an investigation with respect to certain actions by our former management, including alleged improper personal use of company assets, and potential violations by our former management and the company of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 in connection with such actions. We have fully cooperated and intend to continue to cooperate fully with the SEC’s investigation. Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate resolution or financial liabilityinformation with respect to this matter, we believe that the outcome of this matter will not have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Business Operations
We are involvedItem 1. Legal Proceedings is set forth in various lawsuits and disputes incidental to our business operations, including commercial disputes, personal injury claims, royalty claims, property damage claims and contract actions.
Environmental Contingencies
The nature of the oil and gas business carries with it certain environmental risks for Gulfport and its subsidiaries. They have implemented various policies, programs, procedures, training and audits to reduce and mitigate environmental risks. They conduct periodic reviews, on a company-wide basis, to assess changes in their environmental risk profile. Environmental reserves are established for environmental liabilities for which economic losses are probable and reasonably estimable. We manage our exposure to environmental liabilities in acquisitions by using an evaluation process that seeks to identify pre-existing contamination or compliance concerns and address the potential liability. Depending on the extent of an identified environmental concern, they may, among other things, exclude a property from the transaction, require the seller to remediate the property to their satisfaction in an acquisition or agree to assume liability for the remediation of the property.
We received several Finding of Violation (“FOVs”) from the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") alleging violations of the Clean Air Act at approximately 17 locations in Ohio. The first FOV for one site was dated December 11, 2013.  Two subsequent FOVs incorporated and expanded the scope on January 4, 2017 and April 15, 2019.  We have exchanged information with the USEPA and are engaged in discussions aimed at resolving the allegations. Resolution of the matter resulted in monetary sanctions of approximately $1.7 million.
In October 2018, we submitted a Voluntary Disclosure document to the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) stemming from improper air permitting at several sites in Midcon between 2014 and 2017. The sites were permitted by Vitruvian prior to our purchase of those assets. The sites were permitted utilizing the “permit by rule” regulation but actually required Title V air permits. We have agreed in a draft Consent Order to obtain the proper permits and to pay the

costs from not having the proper permits in place in the amount of $180,000 to the ODEQ. The Order received final approval at the ODEQ and expects to be finalized in the third quarter of 2020.
Other Matters
Based on management’s current assessment, they are of the opinion that no pending or threatened lawsuit or dispute relating to its business operations is likely to have a material adverse effect on their futureaccompanying condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The final resolution of such matters could exceed amounts accrued, however, and actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
Our business has many risks. Factors that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results or liquidity and the trading price of our common stock or senior notes are described below and under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The risk factors below updates2020.
Risks Related to our risk factors previously discussed inEmergence from Bankruptcy

We recently emerged from bankruptcy, which may adversely affect our Annual Report on Form 10-Kbusiness and relationships.

It is possible that our having filed for bankruptcy and our recent emergence from bankruptcy may adversely affect our business and relationships with customers, vendors, contractors or employees. Due to uncertainties, many risks exist, including the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.following:
Any significant reduction in our borrowing base under our revolving credit facility as a result of periodic borrowing base redeterminationskey vendors or otherwiseother contract counterparties may terminate their relationships with us or an inability to refinance our revolving credit facility prior to its maturity may negatively impact require additional financial assurances or enhanced performance from us;
our ability to fundrenew existing contracts and compete for new business may be adversely affected;
our ability to attract, motivate and/or retain key executives may be adversely affected; and
competitors may take business away from us, and our ability to attract and retain customers may be negatively impacted.

The occurrence of one or more of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations, financial condition and wereputation. We cannot assure you that having been subject to bankruptcy protection will not adversely affect our operations in the future.

Our actual financial results after emergence from bankruptcy may not have sufficient fundsbe comparable to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility if required as a result of a borrowing base redetermination.
In 2020, decreased demand for oil and natural gashistorical financial information as a result of the COVID-19 pandemicimplementation of the Plan and the accompanying decrease in commodity prices has significantly reduced our ability to access capital markets and to refinance our existing indebtedness. Further, these conditions have made amendments or waivers to our revolving credit facility more difficult to obtain and available on terms less favorable to us. If depressed commodity prices persist or decline further, the borrowing base under our revolving credit facility could be further reduced at our next scheduled redetermination date in November 2020. Any such reduction would constrain our liquidity and may impair our ability to fund our planned capital expenditures and meet our obligations under our existing indebtedness. Further, a reduction in our capital expenditures would decrease our production, revenues, operating cash flow and EBITDA, which could limit our ability to complytransactions contemplated thereby.

In connection with the restrictive covenants in our revolving credit facilitydisclosure statement we filed with the Bankruptcy Court, and other existing indebtedness. Finally, our existing revolving credit facility matures in December 2021 and therefore will become a current liability at year end 2020 unless we are ablethe hearing to refinance the credit facility with a new credit facility or other financing. Considering the current stateconsider confirmation of the first lien market and our elevated leverage profile, there is substantial risk that a refinancing will not be availablePlan, we prepared projected financial information to us on reasonable terms. A current liability underdemonstrate to the revolving credit facility at year end 2020 may result in a qualified audit opinion which could result in a default underBankruptcy Court the termsfeasibility of the current revolving credit facility. As a result of these uncertainties, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt aboutPlan and our ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to meetoperations upon our obligations underemergence from bankruptcy. Those projections were prepared solely for the purpose of bankruptcy proceedings and have not been, and will not be, updated on an ongoing basis and should not be relied upon by investors. At the time they were prepared, the projections reflected numerous assumptions concerning our existing indebtedness or failure to comply with any of our covenants, if not waived, would result in an event of default under such indebtedness and result in the potential acceleration of outstanding indebtedness thereunder and,anticipated future performance with respect to prevailing and anticipated market and economic conditions that were and remain beyond our control and that may not materialize. Projections are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and the revolving credit facility,assumptions underlying the potential foreclosureprojections and/or valuation estimates may prove to be wrong in material respects. Actual results may vary significantly from those contemplated by the projections. As a result, investors should not rely on these projections.

The market price of our securities is subject to volatility.

Upon our emergence from bankruptcy, our old common stock was cancelled and we issued New Common Stock.The market price of our New Common Stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to, and the collateral securing such debt, and could cause a cross-default underlevel of trading that develops with our New Common Stock may be affected by, numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control.These factors include, among other outstanding indebtedness. Further, if the outstanding borrowings underthings, our revolving credit facility were to exceed the borrowing basenew capital structure as a result of any such redetermination, we would be requiredthe transactions contemplated by the Plan, our limited trading history subsequent to repayour emergence from bankruptcy, our limited trading volume, the excess. We may not have sufficient funds to make such repayments. If we do not have sufficient funds and we are otherwise unable to negotiate renewalslack of our borrowings or arrange new financing, we may have to sell significant assets. Any such sale could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, has affected and may materially adversely affect, and any future outbreak of any other highly infectious or contagious diseases may materially adversely affect, our operations, financial performance and condition, operating results and cash flows.
The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has affected, and may materially adversely affect, our business and financial and operating results. The severity, magnitude and duration of the current COVID-19 outbreak is uncertain, rapidly changing and hard to predict. Thus far in 2020, the outbreak has significantly impacted economic activity and markets around the world, and COVID-19 or another similar outbreak could negatively impact our business in numerous ways, including, but not limited to, the following:
our revenue may be reduced if the outbreak results in an economic downturn or recession, as many experts predict, to the extent it leads to a prolonged decrease in the demand for natural gas and, to a lesser extent, NGL and oil;comparable

If we are not able to successfully execute our plan to reduce our leverage profile, our high level of indebtedness could make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our indebtedness, and any failure to comply withForm 10-Q.

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the obligations under anycomposition of our debt instruments,board of directors changed significantly.

The composition of our board of directors changed significantly upon emergence from bankruptcy. Our new board is comprised of five directors, including their restrictive covenants, could result in a default under our revolving credit facility or the indentures governing our senior notes. Additionally, our credit ratings may be lowered, we may reduce or delay our planned capital expenditures or investments,Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer, Timothy Cutt, and we may revise or delay our strategic plans.
We expect that the principal areas of operational risk for us are availability of service providersfour non-employee directors, David Wolf, Guillermo Martinez, Jason Martinez and supply chain disruption. Active development operations, including drilling and fracking operations, represent the greatest risk for transmission given the number of personnel and contractors on site.David Reganato. While we believeexpect to engage in an orderly transition process as we integrate newly appointed board members, our new board of directors may change views on strategic initiatives and a range of issues that we are following best practices under COVID-19 guidance,will determine the potential for transmission still exists. In certain instances, it may be necessary or determined advisable for us to delay development operations.

As a result, wethe future strategy and plans of the Company may experience difficulty accessingdiffer materially from those of the capital or financing needed to fund our exploration and production operations, which have substantial capital requirements, or refinance our upcoming maturities on satisfactory terms or at all.

The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on our business, which will depend on numerous evolving factors and future developments that we are not able to predict, including the length of time that the pandemic continues, its effect on the demand for natural gas, NGL and oil, the response of the overall economy and the financial markets as well as the effect of governmental actions taken in response to the pandemic.equity securities.

Asbusiness, financial condition and results of June 30, 2020, we had entered into firm transportation contracts to deliver approximately 1,455,000 MMBtu per day for the remainder of 2020 and 2021, respectively. Under these firm transportation contracts, we are obligated to deliver minimum daily volumes or pay fees for any deficiencies in deliveries. As a result of the reduced production from our Utica Shale or SCOOP acreage due to decreased developmental activities, taking into consideration the current low commodity price environment, we expect that we will be unable to meet our obligations under the existing firm transportation contracts, resulting in fees, which may be significant and may have a material adverse effect on our operations.

Incentive compensation program

In connection with a comprehensive reviewBased on assumption of the Company’s compensation programsadditional responsibilities, Mr. Craine’s title was changed to Chief Legal and in consultation with its independent compensation consultantAdministrative Officer and legal advisors, the Board of Directors has determined that significant changes are appropriatehis base salary was increased to retain and motivate the Company’s employees as a result of the ongoing uncertainty and unprecedented disruption in the oil and gas industry. Accordingly, as of August 4, 2020, the Board has authorized a redesign of the incentive compensation program for the Company’s workforce, including for its current named executive officers: David M. Wood, Donnie Moore, Quentin R. Hicks, Patrick K. Craine and Michael Sluiter (the “executives”). Participation by the executives in the new compensation program is contingent upon forfeiture of (i) all unpaid amounts previously awarded pursuant to the 2020 Incentive Plan, (ii) all restricted stock units granted in 2020 and (iii) any award pursuant to the 2019 Executive Annual Incentive Compensation Program for 2020, other than payment of pro-rata bonuses earned for the period from January 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020 at the target level. Under the new compensation program, each executive’s target total variable compensation amount for 2020 (target annual bonus and long-term incentive, after adjusting the long-term incentive targets for each of Messrs. Hicks and Craine to 350% in recognition of increased workload), less any amounts previously paid pursuant to the 2020 Incentive Plan, will be paid as soon as practicable. Of this variable compensation amount, 50% will be subject to repayment on an after-tax basis in the event of the executive’s resignation without good reason or termination by the Company for cause prior to the earlier of July 31, 2021, a change in control or completion of a restructuring, and the remaining 50% will be subject to repayment on an after-tax basis if performance metrics established by the Board are not met over performance periods from August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021.
