TABLE OF CONTENTS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Written forward–looking statements
may appear in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including this quarterly report,
documents incorporated by reference, reports to shareholders and other communications.
The U.S. Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward–looking information to encourage companies to provide
prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as the information is identified as forward looking
and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected in the information. Samson relies on this safe harbor in making forward–looking statements.
Forward–looking statements appear
in a number of places in this quarterly report and include but are not limited to management’s comments regarding business
strategy, exploration and development drilling prospects and activities at our oil and gas properties, oil and gas pipeline availability
and capacity, natural gas and oil reserves and production, meeting our capital raising targets and following any use of proceeds
plans, our ability to and methods by which we may raise additional capital, production and future operating results.
In this quarterly report, the use of words
such as “anticipate,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “likely,” “may,”
“will,” “project,” “should,” “believe” and similar expressions are intended to
identify uncertainties. While we believe that the expectations reflected in those forward–looking statements are reasonable,
we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated
in these forward–looking statements. The differences between actual results and those predicted by the forward–looking
statements could be material. Forward-looking statements are based upon our expectations relating to, among other things:
| • | our future financial position, including cash flow, debt levels and anticipated liquidity; |
| • | the timing, effects and success of our exploration and development activities; |
| • | uncertainties in the estimation of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production; |
| • | timing, amount, and marketability of production; |
| • | third party operational curtailment, processing plant or pipeline capacity constraints beyond our
control; |
| • | our ability to acquire and dispose of oil and gas properties at favorable prices; |
| • | our ability to market, develop and produce new properties; |
| • | declines in the values of our properties that may result in write-downs; |
| • | effectiveness of management strategies and decisions; |
| • | oil and natural gas prices and demand; |
| • | unanticipated recovery or production problems, including cratering, explosions, fires; |
| • | the strength and financial resources of our competitors; |
| • | our entrance into transactions in commodity derivative instruments; |
| • | climatic conditions; and |
| • | effectiveness of management strategies and decisions. |
Many of these factors are beyond our ability
to control or predict. Neither these factors nor those included in the “Risk Factors” section of this quarterly report
represent a complete list of the factors that may affect us. We do not undertake to update the forward–looking
statements made in this report.

SAMSON OIL & GAS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
These Consolidated Financial Statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim
financial reporting. All adjustments which are normal and recurring by nature, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair
statement of Samson Oil & Gas Limited’s (the Company) Consolidated Financial Statements have been included herein. Interim
results are not necessarily indicative of expected annual results because of the impact of fluctuations in prices received for
oil and natural gas, as well as other factors. In the course of preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes
various assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and
in the disclosures of commitments and contingencies. Changes in these assumptions, judgments and estimates will occur as a result
of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events, and, accordingly, actual results could differ from amounts previously
established.
The Company’s Consolidated Financial
Statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting principles and policies reflected in the Company’s
audited financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2015. The year-end Consolidated Balance Sheet presented herein
was derived from audited Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
It is suggested that these financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report
(“Form 10-K”).
Accruals. Accrued liabilities
at December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 consist primarily of estimates for goods and services received but not yet invoiced.
Prepayments. Prepayments
at December 31, 2015 consist primarily of a $0.5 million deposit paid in connection with a purchase and sale agreement that
we entered into on December 31, 2015. This deposit is only refundable if certain conditions with respect to title or
environmental defects are identified and the transaction does not close as proposed. Refer to the discussions below under
“Credit Facility” and “Subsequent Events” for additional discussion of this agreement. Other
prepayments include insurance premiums paid in advance for the year.
Prepayments at June 30, 2015 consists
primarily of cash advanced to the operators of our South Prairie exploration project for a future exploration well and
insurance premiums paid in advance for the year. The exploration well was drilled in October 2015 and was a dry hole. Costs
were expensed as incurred.
Recent Accounting Standards
There are no new accounting pronouncements
that have not been adopted by the Company as of December 31, 2015 that will have a material effect on the Company’s financial
statements.
2. Income Taxes
The Company has cumulative net operating losses (“NOLs”)
that may be carried forward to reduce taxable income in future years. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 contains provisions that limit
the utilization of NOLs if there has been a change in ownership as described in Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company’s
prior year NOLs are limited by IRC Section 382.
ASC Topic 740 requires that a valuation allowance be provided
if it is more likely than not that some portion or all deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s ability to
realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets will depend on the generation of future taxable income through profitable operations.
Due to the Company’s history of losses and the uncertainty of future profitable operations, the Company has recorded a full
valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.
3. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated
by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to ordinary shares by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period.
Under the treasury stock method, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding including all potentially dilutive ordinary shares (which in Samson’s case consists of unexercised
stock options). In the event of a net loss, however no potential ordinary shares are included in the calculation of shares outstanding
since the impact would be anti-dilutive.
The following table details the weighted
average dilutive and anti-dilutive securities outstanding, which consist of transferable options to purchase ordinary shares which
are tradeable on the ASX (“options”), for the periods presented:

4. Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company’s asset retirement obligations
primarily represent the estimated present value of the amounts expected to be incurred to plug, abandon and remediate producing
and shut–in properties at the end of their productive lives in accordance with applicable state and federal laws. The Company
determines the estimated fair value of its asset retirement obligations by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows
related to those obligations. The significant inputs used to calculate such liabilities include estimates of costs to be incurred,
the Company’s credit adjusted discount rates, inflation rates and estimated dates of abandonment. The asset retirement liability
is accreted to its present value each period and the capitalized asset retirement cost is depleted using the units–of–production
method.
The liabilities settled in the six months
to December 31, 2014 relate to work performed to plug and abandon three wells in our Greens Canyon prospect in Wyoming. These wells
were drilled 10 years ago and did not produce economic quantities of hydrocarbons. The liabilities settled in the quarter ended
December 31, 2015 relates to the plugging of one well in our North Stockyard property, the Harstad. This well’s performance
was sub-optimal and experienced high levels of hydrogen sulphide.
The following table summarizes the activities
for the Company’s asset retirement obligations for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

5. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that
would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing
the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These
inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based
on the observability of those inputs. The FASB has established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure
fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy
are as follows:
|
· |
Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
|
· |
Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date and for substantially the full term of the instrument. Inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. |
|
· |
Level 3—Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally unobservable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value. |
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 Company’s assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair
value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The following table sets forth by level
within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value as of
December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015.

| (1) | Netting In accordance with the Company’s standard practice, its commodity derivatives
are subject to counterparty netting under agreements governing such derivatives and therefore the risk of loss is somewhat mitigated. |
The following methods and assumptions were
used to estimate the fair value of the assets and liabilities in the table above:
Level 1 Fair value Measurements
Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts
receivable and payable and derivatives (discussed below). The carrying values of cash equivalents and accounts receivable and payable
are representative of their fair values due to their short–term maturities.
Level 2 Fair Measurements
Derivative Contracts. The Company’s
derivative contracts consist of oil collars and oil call options. The fair value of these contracts are based on inputs that are
either readily available in the public market, such as oil future prices or inputs that can be corroborated from active markets.
Fair value is determined through the use of a discounted cash model using applicable inputs discussed above.
Other fair value measurements
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair
Value on a Nonrecurring Basis.
The Company also applies fair value accounting
guidance to measure non–financial assets and liabilities such as business acquisitions, proved oil and gas properties, and
asset retirement obligations. These assets and liabilities are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances
and are not subject to recurring revaluations. These items are primarily valued using the present value of estimated future cash
inflows and/or outflows. Given the unobservable nature of these inputs, they are deemed to be Level 3.
Some oil and gas properties are stated
at fair value as at December 31, 2015. As a result of the significant decline in oil prices experienced in recent months, the carrying
value of oil and gas properties was reviewed and subject to impairment costs of $9.6 million relating to our North Stockyard field
due to the continued decrease in the oil price.
6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company has no accrued environmental
liabilities for its sites, including sites in which governmental agencies have designated the Company as a potentially responsible
party, because it is not probable that a loss will be incurred and the minimum cost and/or amount of loss cannot be reasonably
estimated. However, due to uncertainties associated with environmental assessment and remediation activities, future expense to
remediate the currently identified sites, and sites identified in the future, if any, could be incurred. Management believes, based
upon current site assessments, that the ultimate resolution of any such matters will not materially affect our results of operations
or cash flows.
From time to time, we are involved in various
legal proceedings through the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome is not known, management believes that any
resolution will not materially impact the financial statements.
Halliburton Dispute
In 2013, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.,
a co-participant in the Company’s Hawk Springs project, filed a complaint in Harris County, Texas District Court against
Samson USA seeking unpaid oil revenue attributable to its ownership interest in the Hawk Springs Project. The unpaid oil revenue
was approximately $126,000 at that time, and has since increased to approximately $170,000. Samson USA answered the complaint,
including counterclaims against Halliburton arising out of Samson USA’s engagement of Halliburton’s Project Management
group in May of 2011 in connection with its drilling program in Roosevelt County, Montana. In those counterclaims, Samson USA claimed
approximately $336,000 from Halliburton on account of Halliburton’s refusal to pay an invoice for demobilization of the drilling
rig used in the Roosevelt project. Samson USA also counterclaimed for a judicial accounting of the fees and expenses Halliburton
charged to Samson in connection with the Spirit of America well in Goshen County, Wyoming, and the Australia II well in Roosevelt
County, Wyoming, in light of Samson USA’s prior discovery of self-dealing and bill padding by Halliburton’s onsite
project manager. In September 2015, Samson filed an amended counterclaim in which it has alleged that (i) Halliburton selected
a rig that was inappropriate for the geology where the Spirit of America 1 well was located, and (ii) the project supervisor assigned
by Halliburton to oversee the construction and drilling of the Spirit of America 1 well was unqualified and lacked the credentials
and experience to perform the duties required of a project manager. Samson has alleged that Halliburton’s failure in this
regard caused Halliburton to be unable to reach the target reservoir and, in the process, caused Samson to incur $4,505,587 in
costs that could have been avoided if a proper rig and qualified project supervisor had been selected and used on the project.
The parties have attended one mediation session with a court appointed mediator, however this failed to reach an agreement. Another
mediation is scheduled to be held on March 10, 2016.
While Samson believes its counterclaims
are meritorious and is confident that Samson USA will obtain a net positive recovery from the litigation, there can be no assurance
as to the ultimate outcome.
7. Capitalized Exploration Expense
We use the successful efforts method of
accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditure in respect of each area of interest. The application of this policy requires
management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in particular the assessment of whether
economic quantities of reserves have been found. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes
available.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed
for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed
its recoverable amount. When assessing for impairment consideration is given to but not limited to the following:
| § | the period for which Samson has the right
to explore; |
| § | planned and budgeted future exploration
expenditure; |
| § | activities incurred during the year; and |
| § | activities planned for future periods. |
If, after having capitalized expenditures
under our policy, we conclude that we are unlikely to recover the expenditures through future exploitation, then the relevant capitalized
amount will be written off to expense.
As of December 31, 2015 we had capitalized
exploration expenditures of $0.2 million. This amount primarily relates to costs incurred in connection with our Cane Creek
project in Utah.
During the six months ended December 31,
2015 we have written off $4.1 million in capitalized exploration expenditure, of which $1.3 million related to our Bluff well in
our Hawk Springs project. This well has been shut in to observe pressure build up in the well bore. We have not yet determined
our final course of action with respect to this well bore, however given the current oil price environment its unlikely that we
will commit any further funds to this well in the near term, therefore all costs capitalized associated with this well have been
written off. We also wrote off $2.4 million in previously capitalized expenditure in relation to leasehold costs for our Hawk Springs
project. In past periods we had written off this leasehold costs as the associated acreage expired. Following the continued deterioration
in the oil price, we are not currently committing any funds to further exploration on this leasehold and thus the decision was
made to expense all previously capitalized expenditures. The remaining $0.4 million in costs written off relates to costs capitalized
with respect to activities on our Spirit of America 1 and Spirit of America 11 wells in our Hawk Springs project in Goshen County,
Wyoming. Work performed on these wells failed to demonstrate that hydrocarbons existed in economic quantities.
Exploration or divestment activities are
continuing in all exploration areas. The outcome of these activities remains uncertain and may result in write offs in future periods
if the related efforts prove unsuccessful.
8. Share Capital
Issue of Share Capital
During the six months ended December 31,
2015, 52,279 options with an exercise price of 3.8 cents (Australian) per ordinary share were exercised for net proceeds of $1,475.
During the six months ended December 31,
2014 24,025 options with an exercise price of 3.8 cents (Australian) per ordinary share were exercised for net proceeds of $880.
All options exercised were issued in a
public rights offering conducted in June 2013.

| (1) | The credit facility in the current period has been presented as a current liability. In previous periods (prior to the quarter
ended September 30, 2015) the facility was presented as a non-current liability. Due to the continuing weakness in the global oil
price, there is doubt as to whether or not we will be able to meet our future debt covenants. We are working with the bank to renegotiate
our facility and will continue to ask for waivers on a quarterly basis as necessary; however there can be no guarantee they will
be granted. |
In January 2014, we entered into a $25.0
million credit facility with our primary lender, Mutual of Omaha Bank, with an initial borrowing base of $8.0 million, which was
increased to $15.5 million in June 2014. In November 2014, the borrowing base was increased to $19.0 million which was fully drawn
down as of December 31, 2015. As a result, unless the borrowing base is increased or we pay down outstanding borrowings, we are
unable to borrow additional amounts under this facility.
Our primary lender is currently assessing
our borrowing base in conjunction with the pending acquisition of certain assets including proved reserves in Montana and North
Dakota, as announced in a Form 8-K filed on January 7, 2016. The acquisition was due to close on February 15th, but
the continuing volatility in petroleum markets has prevented us from concluding arrangements for financing of the acquired assets
with our primary lender. While we remain optimistic that we will obtain the necessary financing and close the acquisition,
our failure to meet the February 15th deadline entitles the seller to terminate the purchase agreement at any time. We currently
expect that the necessary financing will be obtained on or before February 29th, 2016, and that the seller will close the sale
on that date. There can be no assurance, however, that the seller will not exercise its right to terminate before we obtain the
funds needed and close the transaction. Our primary lender has indicated that it is considering providing the funds
needed to close the acquisition. If it does agree to provide the funds, we expect our borrowing base to be increased to $34.5 million
following the closing of the acquisition. We believe that this funding would be subject to certain additional commitments, including
finding an additional source of capital in order to reduce the lender’s exposure within a reasonable time period following
the closing of the acquisition and a continued reduction in our general and administrative expenditure.
If this acquisition does not close as
proposed or is terminated by the seller, it is likely that our borrowing base would be decreased, and we would need to repay outstanding
amounts under the credit facility in excess of the decreased borrowing base to cure the resulting breach. Under the credit facility,
we must commence repayment of outstanding amounts in excess of the reduced borrowing base within 30 days of our receipt of a borrowing
base deficiency notice. Such excess is required to be repaid in six equal consecutive monthly installments, unless our primary
lender consents to an extension or amendment to this timeline. Our failure to timely repay such amounts would be deemed
an event of default under our credit agreement. In the current oil pricing climate, there can be no guarantee of our ability
to timely repay such amounts.
Additional increases in the borrowing base, up to the credit facility maximum of $50.0 million, may
be made available to us in the future depending on the value of our reserves. Borrowing base redeterminations are performed by
the lender every six months based on our June and December reserve reports. We also have the ability to request a borrowing base
redetermination at another period, once a year. The facility matures January 28, 2017. The interest rate is LIBOR plus 3.75% or
approximately 3.98% for the quarter ended December 31, 2015.
The credit facility includes the following
covenants, tested on a quarterly basis:
| · | Current ratio greater than 1 |
| · | Debt to EBITDAX (annualized) ratio no
greater than 3.5 |
| · | Interest coverage ratio minimum of between
2.5 and 1.0 |
The credit facility also includes an annual
cap on general and administrative expenditures of $6,000,000 per year which was tested for the first time for the calendar year
ended December 31, 2014 and each subsequent December 31 thereafter while the facility is in place.
As at December 31, 2014 we were in breach
of our debt to EBITDAX covenant. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to this breach for this quarter only.
We were in compliance with all other covenants.
As at March 31, 2015 we were in breach
of our debt to EBIDTAX covenant. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to this breach for this quarter only.
We were in compliance with all other covenants.
We were in compliance with all of our covenants
as at June 30, 2015.
As at September 30, 2015 we were in breach
of our Debt to EBITDAX and interest coverage ratio covenants. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to these
covenants for this quarter only.
As at December 31, 2015 we were in breach
of our Debt to EBITDAX and interest coverage ratio covenants. We have requested a waiver from our primary lender with respect to
these covenants for this quarter only, and it is still considering this request.
If the current pricing environment
does not improve it will be difficult to maintain compliance with covenants based on our current debt levels. If we are not
in compliance with the financial covenants in the credit facility, or if we do not receive a waiver from the lender, and if
we fail to cure any such noncompliance during the applicable cure period, the due date of our debt could be accelerated
by the lender. In addition, failure to comply with any of the covenants under our credit facility could adversely affect
our ability to fund ongoing operations.
We incurred $0.4 million in borrowing costs (including
legal fees and bank fees) in connection with the establishment of this facility which have been deferred and are being
amortized over the life of the facility.
11. Derivatives
The Company has not designated any of its derivative contracts
as hedges for accounting purposes. The Company records all derivative contracts at fair value. Changes in derivative contracts
are recognized in earnings. Changes in settlements and valuation gains and losses are included in loss/(gain) on derivative instruments
in the Statement of Operations. These contracts are settled on a monthly basis. Derivative assets and liabilities arising from
the Company’s derivative contracts with the same counterparty that provide for net settlement are reported on a net basis
in the Balance Sheet.
The Company is exposed to commodity price risk, which impacts
the predictability of its cash flows from the sale of oil. The Company seeks to manage this risk through the use of commodity derivative
contracts These derivative contracts allow the Company to limit its exposure to commodity price volatility on a portion of its
forecasted oil sales. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s commodity derivative contracts consisted of collars and fixed price
swaps, which are described below:
| Collar | Collars contain a fixed floor price (put) and fixed ceiling price (call). If the market price exceeds the call strike price
or falls below the put strike price, the Company receives the fixed price and pays the market price. If the market price is between
the call and the put strike price, no payments are due from the either party. |
| Fixed price swap | The Company receives a fixed price for the contract and
pays a floating market price to the counterparty over a specified period for a contracted volume. |
All of the Company’s derivative contracts are with the
same counterparty (a large multinational oil company) and are shown on a net basis on the Balance Sheet. The Company’s counterparty
has entered into an inter-creditor agreement with the Company’s primary lender, and as such, no additional collateral is
required by the counterparty.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2015 we recognized $200,017
gain on derivative instruments in the Statement of Operations.
We intend to increase our derivative portfolio as our production
increases in order to provide downside protection to our future production.
In October 2014, we entered into a deferred put spread arrangement
with respect to 36,600 barrels from production in 2016. These options have a floor of $82.50 (the Company receives $82.50 when
the market price settles between $67.50 and $82.50) and a sub floor of $67.50 (the Company receives the market price plus $15 for
any prices below $67.50) with a cost of $5.50 per barrel which is deferred until the settlement of the derivative instrument.
In April 2015, we closed out our open 2015 hedge positions (from
April 2015 to December 2015) for net proceeds of $1.2 million. We also entered into a three way costless collar arrangement with
respect to 73,500 barrels from production from May 2015 to December 2015. These options have a ceiling of $70.50, a floor of $45.00
(the Company receives $45.00 when the market price settles between $32.50 and $45.00) and a sub floor of $32.50 (the Company receives
the market price plus $15 for any prices below $32.50).
Also in April, we also entered into a deferred three way collar
with respect to 27,375 (average of 75 barrels per day) for 2016 production. The options have a ceiling of $80, a floor or $55 and
a sub floor of $45. These options have a premium of $1.63 per barrel, which is deferred until the contract settlement.

12. Subsequent Events
As announced in a Form 8-K filed on January
7, 2016, Samson Oil and Gas USA Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) entered into a contract to acquire oil and gas
leases, producing oil and gas wells, currently shut-in wells and associated facilities in North Dakota and Montana for consideration
of $16.5 million. The acquisition was due to close on February 15th, but the continuing volatility in petroleum markets
has prevented us from concluding arrangements for financing of the acquired assets with our primary lender. While we remain optimistic
that we will obtain the necessary financing and close the acquisition, our failure to meet the February 15th deadline entitles
the seller to terminate the purchase agreement at any time. We currently expect that the necessary financing will be obtained on
or before February 29th, 2016, and that the seller will close the sale on that date. There can be no assurance, however, that the
seller will not exercise its right to terminate before we obtain the funds needed and close the transaction.
No events other than those previously mentioned have occurred
subsequent to December 31, 2015 that would have an impact on our operations or the results of operations for the quarter ended
or six months ended December 31, 2015.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following is management’s discussion
and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected aspects of our financial position and the results of operations
during the periods included in the accompanying Condensed Financial Statements. You should read this in conjunction with the discussion
under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the audited Financial
Statements for the year ended June 30, 2015, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Consolidated Financial
Statements included elsewhere herein.
Throughout this report, a barrel of oil
or Bbl means a stock tank barrel (“STB”) and a thousand cubic feet of gas or Mcf means a thousand standard cubic feet
of gas (“Mscf”).
Overview
We are an independent energy company primarily
engaged in the acquisition, exploration, exploitation and development of oil and natural gas properties. Our strategy
is to focus on the exploration, exploitation and development of our major oil plays – the Niobrara, Permian and Pennsylvanian
in Goshen County, Wyoming and the Bakken in Williams County, North Dakota.
Our net oil production was 51,888 barrels
of oil for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, compared to 43,653 barrels of oil for the quarter ended December 31, 2014. The
increase in oil production was due to new wells commencing production in our North Stockyard project since we commenced the drilling
program in December 2013.
Our net gas production was 93,332 Mcf for
the quarter ended December 31, 2015, compared to 39,043 Mcf for the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
Our net oil production was 113,124 barrels
of oil for the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 78,517 barrels of oil for the six months ended December 31, 2014.
The increase in oil production is due to new wells commencing production in our North Stockyard project.
Our net gas production was 183,414 Mcf
for the six months ended December 31, 2015, compared to 85,588 Mcf for the six months ended December 31, 2014.
For the three months ended December 31,
2015 and December 31, 2014, we reported a net loss of $14.7 million and a net loss of $2.5 million, respectively. The loss in the
current period reflects a $3.7 million in exploration expenditure and impairment expense of $9.7 million while the loss in the
prior period reflects a $3.0 million of impairment expenditure. See “Results of Operations” below.
For the six months ended December 31, 2015
and December 31, 2014, we reported a net loss of $16.8 million and a net loss of $13.5 million, respectively. The loss in the current
period reflects a $4.2 million in exploration expenditure and impairment expense of $9.8 million while the loss in the prior period
reflects a $3.0 million of impairment expenditure and $11.5 million in write off of previously capitalized exploration expenditure.
See “Results of Operations” below.
In the execution of our strategy, our management
is principally focused on economically developing additional reserves of oil and on maximizing production levels through exploration,
exploitation and development activities on a cost-effective basis.
Notable Activities and Status of Material
Properties during the Quarter and Six Months Ended December 31, 2015 and Current Activities
Undeveloped Properties: Exploration
Activities
Hawk Springs Project, Goshen County,
Wyoming
Permo-Penn Project, Northern D-J Basin
Samson 37.5% working interest
We have two contiguous areas in the Hawk
Springs Project. One of the areas is a joint venture with a private company and is subject to a joint venture with Halliburton
Energy Services, Inc.
The Bluff Prospect was drilled in June
2014 to test multiple targets in the Permian and Pennsylvanian sections in a 4-way structural trapping configuration. The Bluff
#1-11 well reached a total depth of 8,900 feet after intersecting the pre-Cambrian basement. Various oil shows were observed in
the Cretaceous, Jurassic, Permian, and Pennsylvanian intervals while drilling. The Permian target zone (from 7738 feet to 7756
feet) exhibited excellent porosity (29% density porosity). Detailed analysis of the Permian target zone proved that it was the
source of the nitrogen gas that was seen while drilling the well. The presence of nitrogen in the Permian target zone validates
the trap in the Bluff prospect and has the potential to host an oil leg below the gas cap. This data led the partners to make the
decision to complete the Permian target sand.
The Permian target sand was flow tested
at a rate of 8 MMcf/D on a 21/64 inch choke during a 40 hour flow test and then shut-in for a 10 day build-up using down-hole gauges.
The buildup data has determined that the original reservoir pressure within the 9500 foot sand is 3,459 pounds per square inch.
A chromatographic analysis of the gas samples indicated that the majority of the gas was composed of nitrogen (97.5%), with some
helium (0.15%), carbon dioxide (0.15%), and the rest hydrocarbons (2.2%). A pressure transient analysis has confirmed that the
9500 foot sand is highly permeable and also identified a movable fluid boundary (oil or water) downdip of the well. Isotope Geochemistry
analysis of the gas samples, has identified the source of the nitrogen, which is from a post-mature organic kerogen in the black
shales of the Pennsylvanian section. The hydrocarbons in the samples are mixed thermogenic post mature gases generated in the wet
gas/condensate window. All of the gathered evidence supports the theory that the fluid below the gas cap is likely to be oil. The
gas-fluid interface has been identified through the integration of the pressure transient test data with newly processed inverted
seismic data.
We concluded our extended flow test on
the Bluff #1-11 well. The Permian Hartville sand (from 7738 feet-7756 feet) produced 1.2 BCF of nitrogen gas during a 100 day flow
test. The goals of the test were to determine the reservoir drive mechanism and the type of fluid (oil or water, which was identified
from the pressure transient analysis and seismic inversion data) beneath the nitrogen gas cap. From the pressure transient analysis
data, we forecasted that it would take another year and half before the water or oil leg could be seen at the well. The gas/fluid
contact moved 180 feet over the 100 day flow test period and would have to move another 420 feet to eventually reach the wellbore.
Due to this lack of movement, we have shut the well in for 4 months to monitor the pressure build-up which can hopefully determine
if there is any continuing fluid movement in the reservoir. If the pressure builds back up to the original bottom hole pressure,
we may be able to determine that the drive mechanism is an active water drive at which point it may be worth opening the well up
again to flow and look for an oil leg. If the bottom hole reservoir pressures remain low after the build-up, the Permian Hartville
zone will be abandoned and additional recompletions will occur in the uphole zones where other hydrocarbon shows were observed.
Following the continued degradation in
the oil price, $1.4 million, representing all current costs associated with this well have been written off during the quarter
ended December 31, 2015. The review of the pressure buildup is expected to be completed by mid-year 2016 however additional costs
are not expected to be incurred with respect to this well unless a sustained recovery in the oil price is observed.
Spirit of America US34 #2-29 well
Samson 100% Working Interest
In an effort to establish continuous production from the Muddy
Formation, the tubing in the SOA 1-29 well was perforated 120 feet above the packer in September 2015 in order to establish tubing
and casing annulus communication. Two feet of perforations (7650 feet -7652 feet) were shot with four shots per foot (eight shots
fired in all). During October 2015, the well underwent a swabbing operation to remove a full column of fluid from the wellbore
to allow the well to flow freely. Subsequent to this operation, the well failed to produce economic quantities of hydrocarbons
and no further work is planned with respect to this well bore. $0.2 million in expense was written off to dry hole costs in relation
to this well during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Additional costs of $0.2 million were incurred during the quarter ended
December 31, 2015 and have been written off to dry hole expense.
South Prairie Project, North Dakota
Mississippian Mission Canyon Formation, Williston Basin
Samson 25% working interest
Samson has a 25% working interest in 25,590
net acres located on the eastern flank of the Williston Basin in North Dakota. The first well of the project, the Matson #3-1 well
was drilled and determined to be a dry hole and was plugged and abandoned in the prior year
In June 2015, we elected to participate
in our proportionate 25% working interest in 900 net acres in the Birch prospect. The target zone is the Wayne zone of the Mississippian
Mission Canyon Formation to be found at an expected depth of 4,800 feet, measured depth. We participated at our proportionate
25% working interest in the drilling of the Badger #1 well in Section 29 of Township 157N, Range 81W in Ward County, North Dakota.
The well was drilled to a depth of 4,900 feet in 7 days for the total cost of approximately $350,000 (our share is approximately
$90,000). The prospect was identified as a 375 acre 4-way structural closure on the South Prairie 3-D seismic survey. Approximately
30 feet of structural closure relief was interpreted. The targeted porosity zone of the Mississippian Mission Canyon Formation
was found at a depth of 4,774feet MD, which was 55 feet structurally high to the offsetting Anschutz
Helseth #1 well and 36 feet high to the offsetting Apache Corporation’s Ward Estate #1-29 well proving the existence of the
4-way structural closure. However, low resistivity readings, a lack of oil shows, and calculated high water saturations (>80%)
indicate the targeted reservoir is non-productive. Hence, the decision was made to plug and abandon the well.
This well was drilled in
October 2015 and $0.1 million in costs was expensed to dry hole costs during the quarter ended December 31, 2015.
Cane Creek Project, Grand & San
Juan Counties, Utah
Pennsylvanian Paradox Formation, Paradox
Basin
Samson 100% Working Interest
On November 5, 2014, we entered into an
Other Business Arrangement (“OBA”) with the Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (“SITLA”)
covering approximately 8,080 gross/net acres located in Grand and San Juan Counties, Utah, all of which are administered by SITLA.
We were granted an option period for two years in order to enter into a Multiple Mineral Development Agreement (“MMDA”)
with another company who hold leases to extract potash in an acreage position situated within our project area. In November 2015,
we paid an extension fee of $40,000 in order to extend the option period to December 2016. Subsequently, the MMDA has been finalized
and is awaiting signature by both parties. Upon entering into the MMDA, SITLA is obligated to deliver oil and gas leases covering
our project area at cost of $75 per acre to us.
This acreage is located in the heart of
the Cane Creek Clastic Play of the Paradox Formation along the Cane Creek anticline. The primary drilling objective is the overpressured
and oil saturated Cane Creek Clastic interval. Keys to the play to date include positioning along the axis of the Cane Creek anticline
and exposure to open natural fractures. The 3-D seismic is currently being designed to image these natural fractures. The seismic
shoot was surveyed and permitted this past summer. We believe this project has the potential to provide very robust economics in
a low priced oil environment using the evidence obtained from a nearby competitor well that has
produced 802,967 BO in just over two years.
Developed Properties: Drilling
Activities
North Stockyard Oilfield, Williams County,
North Dakota
Mississippian Bakken Formation, Williston
Basin
Bakken & Three Forks infill wells
Samson ~25-30% working interest
On January 1, 2013, we and the operator
group negotiated a non-cash acreage swap for the Middle Bakken/First Bench of the Three Forks (MB/TF), whereby we traded certain
interests in our undeveloped acres in the Southern Tier for these parties’ undeveloped acres in the Northern Tier. As a result
of this acreage swap we owned 64% and 57%, respectively, in the two overlapping 1,280 acre spacing units located in the Northern
Tier. Our net production from current producing wells was not affected. In August 2013, we divested half our equity position in
the undeveloped acreage in the North Stockyard project to Slawson Exploration Company Inc. (“Slawson”) for $5.562 million
in cash and other consideration while retaining our full interest in the currently producing wells in the North Stockyard field.
Slawson is now the operator of the Northern Tier acreage.
Due to high hydrogen sulphide content in
the well, the Harstad well was plugged and abandoned during the current quarter ended September 30, 2015.
We have 23 wells in this field with all
wells currently producing.
Rainbow Project, Williams County, North Dakota
Mississippian Bakken Formation, Williston Basin
Samson 23% and 52% working interest
In 2013, we acquired 656 acres in a 1,255
acre drilling unit and 294 acres in a 1,280 acre drilling unit. Both drilling units are located in the Rainbow Project, Williams
County, North Dakota. The Rainbow Project is located in Sections 17, 18, 19 and 20 in T158N R99W.
Samson acquired the net acres in the Rainbow
Project from the vendor as part of an acreage trade and is obligated provide a $1 million carry (10% of expected costs to drill
and complete the first well) to the vendor, for the first development well to be drilled in the Rainbow Project.
Samson has assessed the project based on
offset well data and believes that the project will support 16 wells, 8 in the middle Bakken and 8 in the first bench of the Three
Forks. These wells would be expected to be configured as north-south orientated 10,000 foot horizontals.
In the western drilling unit of the acquired
acreage, Samson holds a 52% working interest. In the eastern drilling unit, Samson’s interest is 23%. Continental Resources
has been designated as Operator, due to their larger working interest.
The first well in this project area, the
Gladys 1-20H well (23% working interest), was drilled and completed in January 2014. During the quarter the Gladys 1-20H well produced
11,858 barrels of oil (gross). Samson has no further drilling planned in this project area until there is a sustained recovery
in the oil prices.

We have twenty three producing wells in
the North Stockyard Field. Currently all wells are producing. These wells are located in Williams County, North Dakota, in Township
154N Range 99W.
They produce 92% of our total oil production
and 81% of our total gas production for the December 2015 quarter.

Comparison of Quarter Ended December
31, 2015 to Quarter Ended December 31, 2014 and for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and six months ended December 31, 2014.
Oil and gas revenues
Oil revenues decreased from $2.5 million
for the three months ended December 31, 2014 to $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, as a result of the decrease
in the oil price. Oil production increased from 43,653 barrels for the three months ended December 31, 2014 to 51,888 for the three
months ended December 31, 2015. The realized oil price decreased from $58.14 per Bbl for the three months ended December 31, 2014
to $36.58 per Bbl (excluding the impact of derivatives) for the three months ended December 31, 2015 following a decrease in global
oil prices.
Oil revenues decreased from $5.5 million
for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $4.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2015, as a result of the decrease
in the oil price. Oil production increased from 78,517 barrels for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to 113,124 for the six
months ended December 31, 2015. The realized oil price decreased from $70.57 per Bbl for the six months ended December 31, 2014
to $38.20 per Bbl (excluding the impact of derivatives) for the six months ended December 31, 2015 following a decrease in global
oil prices.
Gas revenues also increased slightly from
$0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014 to $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. This increase
is due to an increase in production which has offset the decrease in the realized gas price for the three month period. Production
increased from 39,043 Mcf for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to 93,332 Mcf for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. The increase
in production was offset by a decrease in the realized gas price which decreased from $3.82 per Mcf for the quarter ended December
31, 2014 to $2.25 per Mcf for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 due to a general decrease in the price of natural gas.
Gas revenues remained constant at $0.4
million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015. Production increased significantly from 85,588 Mcf for
the six months ended December 31, 2014 to 183,414 Mcf for the six months ended December 31, 2015. The increase in production was
due to the operators of our North Stockyard field being able to capture and sell a greater percentage of gas production following
the installation of certain infrastructure improvements. The increase in production was offset by a decrease in the realized gas
price which decreased from $4.72 per Mcf for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $2.33 per Mcf for the six ended December
31, 2015 due to a general decrease in the price of natural gas.
Exploration expense
Exploration expenditures increased from
$0.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, to $3.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. $0.1 million of
the expenditure relates to the Badger well, drilled in our South Prairie prospect in North Dakota. This well was drilled in October
2015 and failed to produce hydrocarbons, therefore the costs associated with the well have been expensed in the current quarter.
While work has continued on our Bluff well in our Hawk Springs project in Wyoming during the current quarter, the significant deterioration
in global oil and gas prices seen during the quarter make it unlikely that further work to bring this well into production will
be completed in the near term. $1.3 million in previously capitalized costs have been written off with respect to the Bluff well.
$2.4 million was expensed in relation to our Hawk Springs project, and $0.5 million was expensed in relation to our Spirit of America
1 and 11 wells. Work performed on our Spirit of America 1 well failed to establish hydrocarbons in economic quantities.
$2.2 million was written off with respect
to costs associated with acreage leasehold in our Hawk Springs project in Goshen County, Wyoming in the current quarter. Prior
to this quarter, we were expensing these costs in line with lease expirations, however following the continued fall in the oil
price, no further funds are expected to be spent with respect to this project in the near term, therefore all leasehold costs have
been expensed.
Expenditure in the prior period relate
to previously capitalized exploration expenditure written off in relation to lease expirations with respect to our Hawk Springs
project in Wyoming.
Exploration expenditures decreased from
$11.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014, to $4.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2015. $0.1 million
of the expenditure relates to the Badger well, drilled in our South Prairie prospect in North Dakota. This well was drilled in
October 2015 and failed to produce hydrocarbons, therefore the costs associated with the well have been expensed in the current
quarter.
Expenditure in the prior period relates
previously capitalized exploration expenditure written off, primarily in relation to the Roosevelt project in Montana and the South
Prairie project in North Dakota.
Impairment expense
During the three months ended December
31, 2015 we recognized $9.7 million in impairment expense compared to $3.0 during the quarter ended December, 2015. The impairment
recognized in the current quarter primarily relates to our North Stockyard field and is driven by the sustained decrease in the
oil price seen in the past year. The impairment during the quarter ended December 31, 2014 relates to our Gladys well in our Rainbow
project.
During the six months ended December 31,
2015 we recognized $9.8 million in impairment expense compared to $3.1 million in the six months ended December 31, 2014.
Abandonment expense
Abandonment expense decreased from $0.1
million for the three months ended December 31, 2014 to $nil for the three months ended December 31, 2015.
Abandonment expense decreased from $0.2
million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $nil for the six months ended December 31, 2015.
Lease operating expense
Lease operating expenses (LOE) decreased
from $1.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, to $1.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Costs per BOE
have decreased significantly from $24.17 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to $12.38 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015.
Followed the continued deterioration in the oil price, a renewed focus on cost control has been implemented by the operators of
our most significant wells, which are located in the North Stockyard Project in North Dakota.
Lease operating expenses decreased from
$3.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014, to $2.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2015. An increase
in production has been offset by a decrease in LOE per barrel. Costs per BOE have decreased significantly from $24.69 for the six
months ended December 31, 2014 to $15.67 for the six months ended December 31, 2015.
Depletion, depreciation and amortization
expense
Depletion, depreciation and amortization
expense increased from $1.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to $1.4 million for the quarter ended December 31,
2015. The increase in depletion is primarily a result of the increase in the production. The per BOE cost decreased from $22.30
for the three months ended December 31, 2014 to $20.73 for the three months ended December 31, 2015.
Depletion, depreciation and amortization
expense increased from $2.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $2.9 million for the six months ended December
31, 2015. The increase in depletion is primarily a result of the increase in the production. The per BOE cost decreased from $22.35
for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $20.05 for the six months ended December 31, 2015.
General and administrative expense
General and administrative expense decreased
from $1.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to $0.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. We have been
actively trying to reduce our general and administrative costs in recent periods. Salaries were reduced by 15% for all employees
effective September 1, 2015. We also reduced our staffing levels in light of the continued weakness in the global oil market. As
a result of lower expense and increased production, general and administrative costs on a per BOE basis decreased from $25.14 for
the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to $13.52 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015.
General and administrative expense also
decreased from $2.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $1.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2015.
As a result of lower expense and increased production, general and administrative costs on a per BOE basis decreased from $26.64
for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $13.73 per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 2015.
Cash Flows
The table below shows cash flows for the
following periods:
| |
Six months ended | |
| |
31-Dec-15 | | |
31-Dec-14 | |
Cash provided by operating activities | |
$ | 517,336 | | |
$ | 628,889 | |
Cash used in investing activities | |

| (12,733,743 | ) |
Cash (used in)/provided by financing activities | |
| 302,475 | | |
| 9,372,190 | |
Cash provided by operations changed from
a net inflow of $0.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014, to a net inflow of $0.9 million for the six months ended
December 31, 2015. Cash receipts from customers decreased from $7.0 million for six months ended December 31, 2014 to $6.5 million
for the six months ended December 31, 2015, due to a decrease in the realized oil price despite an increase in production. Payments
to suppliers and employees decreased from $6.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $5.7 million for the six months
ended December 31, 2015 following continued cost saving initiatives.
Cash used in investing activities decreased
from $12.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $1.8 million of cash used for the six months ended December 31,
2015. The cash outflow for the prior period related to ongoing drilling activities in our North Stockyard project in North Dakota.
The cash outflow in the current period relates to continued work in our North Stockyard field, though no new wells were drilled
in this period. It also includes the $0.5 million non-refundable deposit paid to the seller in relation to our pending acquisition
of certain oil and gas assets in North Dakota and Montana.
Cash provided by financing activities decreased
from a cash inflow of $9.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to $0.3 million for the six months ended December
31, 2015. Cash inflow for the current period $0.3 million in proceeds from borrowings from our credit facility. Cash inflow in the prior period is
a result of the drawdown of borrowings from our credit facility with our primary lender.
All options outstanding as at December
31, 2015 are currently out of the money.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Capital
Expenditures
Our primary use of capital has been acquiring,
developing and exploring oil and natural gas properties and we anticipate this will be our primary use of capital during fiscal
2015.
Our current budget for exploration, exploitation
and development capital expenditures in fiscal 2016 is $1.4 million, of which we incurred approximately $1.1 million during
the first three months of the fiscal year. These expenditures were funded through our current cash on hand and cash generated from
oil sales. Due to the sustained decrease in oil price, we do not have any additional development or exploration drilling planned
for the immediate future.
In January 2014, we entered into a $25.0
million credit facility with our primary lender, Mutual of Omaha Bank, with an initial borrowing base of $8.0 million, which was
increased to $15.5 million in June 2014. In November 2014, the borrowing base was increased to $19.0 million, which is fully drawn
at December 31, 2015. As a result, unless the borrowing base is increased or we pay down outstanding borrowings, we are unable
to borrow additional amounts under this facility.
Our primary lender is currently assessing
our borrowing base in conjunction with the pending acquisition of certain assets including proved reserves in Montana and North
Dakota, as announced in a Form 8-K filed on January 7, 2016. The acquisition was due to close on February 15th, but
the continuing volatility in petroleum markets has prevented us from concluding arrangements for financing of the acquired assets
with the Company’s primary lender. While we remain optimistic that we will obtain the necessary financing and close the acquisition,
our failure to meet the February 15th deadline entitles the seller to terminate the purchase agreement at any time. We currently
expect that the necessary financing will be obtained on or before February 29th, 2016, and that the seller will close the sale
on that date. There can be no assurance, however, that the seller will not exercise its right to terminate before we obtain the
funds needed and close the transaction. The Company’s primary lender has indicated that it is considering providing the funds
needed to close the acquisition. If it does agree to provide the funds, we expect our borrowing base to be increased to $34.5 million
following the closing of the acquisition. We believe that this funding would be subject to certain additional commitments, including
finding an additional source of capital in order to reduce the lender’s exposure within a reasonable time period following
the closing of the acquisition and a continued reduction in our general and administrative expenditure.
If this acquisition does not close as proposed or is terminated by the seller, it is likely that our borrowing
base would be decreased, and we would need to repay outstanding amounts under the credit facility in excess of the decreased borrowing
base to cure the resulting breach. Under the credit facility, we must commence repayment of outstanding amounts in excess of the
reduced borrowing base within 30 days of our receipt of a borrowing base deficiency notice. Such excess is required to be
repaid in six equal consecutive monthly installments, unless our primary lender consents to an extension or amendment to this timeline.
Our failure to timely repay such amounts would be deemed an event of default under our credit agreement. In the current oil
pricing climate, there can be no guarantee of our ability to timely repay such amounts.
Additional increases in the borrowing base,
up to the credit facility maximum of $50.0 million, may be made available to us in the future depending on the value of our reserves.
Borrowing base redeterminations are performed by the lender every six months based on our June and December reserve reports. We
also have the ability to request a borrowing base redetermination at another period, once a year. The facility matures January
28, 2017. The interest rate is LIBOR plus 3.75% or approximately 3.98% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
In November 2014, we entered into the First
Amendment to the Company’s Credit Agreement with our primary lender to increase the borrowing base of the reserve based lending
facility to $19 million, increase the maximum available under the facility to $50 million and decrease the interest rate.
The credit facility includes the following
covenants, which will be tested on a quarterly basis:
| · | Current ratio greater than 1 |
| · | Debt to EBITDAX (annualized) ratio no
greater than 3.5 |
| · | Interest coverage ratio minimum of 2.5
to 1.0 |
The credit facility also includes an annual
cap on general and administrative expenditures of $6,000,000 commencing the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2014
we were in breach of our Debt to EBITDAX covenant. Our primary lender has given us a waiver with respect to this breach for that
quarter only. We were in compliance with all other covenants.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2015 we
were in breach of our Debt to EBITDAX covenant. Our primary lender has given us a waiver with respect to this breach for that only.
We were in compliance with all other covenants.
We were in compliance with all of our covenants
for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
As at September 30, 2015 we were in breach
of our Debt to EBITDAX and interest coverage ratio covenants. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to these
covenants for this quarter only.
As at December 31, 2015 we were in breach
of our Debt to EBITDAX and interest coverage ratio covenants. We have requested a waiver from our primary lender with respect to
these covenants for this quarter only, and they are still considering this request.
The credit facility in the current period has been presented
as a current liability. In previous periods (prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2015) the facility was presented as a non-current
liability. Due to the continuing weakness in the global oil price, there is doubt as to whether or not we will be able to meet
our future debt covenants. We are working with the bank to renegotiate our facility and will continue to ask for waivers on a quarterly
basis as necessary; however there can be no guarantee they will be granted. If we do not receive a waiver from the lender, and
if we fail to cure any such noncompliance during the applicable cure period, the due date of our debt could be accelerated by the
lender. In addition, failure to comply with any of the covenants under our credit facility could adversely affect our ability to
fund ongoing operations.
The funds drawn from our credit facility
were used to fund drilling in our North Stockyard project in North Dakota.
Uncertainties relating to our capital resources
and requirements include the effects of results from our exploration and drilling program and changes in oil and natural gas prices,
either of which could lead us to accelerate or decelerate exploration and drilling activities. The aggregate levels of capital
expenditures for our fiscal year ending June 30, 2015, and the allocation of those expenditures, are dependent on a variety of
factors, including the availability of capital resources to fund the expenditures and changes in our business assessments as to
where our capital can be most profitably employed. Accordingly, the actual levels of capital resources and expenditures and the
allocation of those expenditures may vary materially from our estimates.
We are continually monitoring the capital
resources available to us to meet our future financial obligations, planned capital expenditure activities and liquidity. Our
future success in growing our proved reserves and production will be highly dependent on capital resources available to us and
our success in finding or acquiring such additional productive reserves.
Our main sources of liquidity during the
six months ended December 31, 2015 was cash on hand and cash flow from operations. We also drew down the remaining $301,000 from
our primary lender in December 2015. This drawdown in part funded our non-refundable $500,000 deposit for our pending acquisition
of oil and gas assets in North Dakota and Montana.
During the prior three fiscal years, our
three main sources of liquidity were (i) borrowings under our credit facility, (ii) equity issued to raise $21.4 million and (iii)
our tax refund of $5.6 million from the Internal Revenue Service, received in February 2013. During the years prior to the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2012, our primary sources of liquidity were the sale of acreage and other oil and gas assets.
Our cash position as of December 31, 2015
decreased from June 30, 2015 largely due to payments for drilling and fracturing activities in our North Stockyard project in North
Dakota, a deposit of $500,000 paid for our pending acquisition and lower oil and gas revenues due to lower commodity prices..
If future production rates are less than
anticipated, the oil price continues to deteriorate for an extended, or our proposed acquisition does not close, the value of our
position in affected areas will decline, our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity will be adversely impacted
and we could incur material write-downs of unevaluated properties. See the risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 including “Drilling results in emerging plays, such as our Hawk Springs and Roosevelt Projects,
are subject to heightened risks.” and “Inadequate liquidity could materially and adversely affect our business operations.”
See also Part II, Item 1A of this report below.
Looking Ahead
We plan to focus on five main objectives
in the coming 12 months:
| · | Continued focus on cost savings and efficiency
across all aspects of the Company including lease operating costs and general and administrative costs |
| · | Continued focus on strengthening the Balance
Sheet through an appropriate injection of capital |
| · | The closing of our proposed acquisition
of certain oil and gas assets in North Dakota and Montana, and if the closing occurs, the review and workover of such assets; |
| · | The continued appraisal of our Cane Creek
project in the Paradox basin in Utah; and |
| · | The continued search and appraisal of
new development and exploration projects that add value to our current portfolio at lower oil prices |
Our ability to meet these objectives will
depend on our ability to raise additional capital to fund the planned development programs.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
As of December 31, 2015, we have carried
out an evaluation under the supervision of, and with the participation of, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant
to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the
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 SEC rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed
by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2015, that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We may make changes in our internal control procedures
from time to time in the future.
Part II — Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
In the ordinary course of our business
we are named from time to time as a defendant in various legal proceedings. We maintain liability insurance and believe
that our coverage is reasonable in view of the legal risks to which our business ordinarily is subject.
Halliburton Dispute
In 2013, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.,
a co-participant in the Company’s Hawk Springs project, filed a complaint in Harris County, Texas District Court against
Samson USA seeking unpaid oil revenue attributable to its ownership interest in the Hawk Springs Project. The unpaid oil revenue
was approximately $126,000 at that time, and has since increased to approximately $170,000. Samson USA answered the complaint,
including counterclaims against Halliburton arising out of Samson USA’s engagement of Halliburton’s Project Management
group in May of 2011 in connection with its drilling program in Roosevelt County, Montana. In those counterclaims, Samson USA claimed
approximately $336,000 from Halliburton on account of Halliburton’s refusal to pay an invoice for demobilization of the drilling
rig used in the Roosevelt project. Samson USA also counterclaimed for a judicial accounting of the fees and expenses Halliburton
charged to Samson in connection with the Spirit of America well in Goshen County, Wyoming, and the Australia II well in Roosevelt
County, Wyoming, in light of Samson USA’s prior discovery of self-dealing and bill padding by Halliburton’s onsite
project manager. In September 2015, Samson filed an amended counterclaim in which it has alleged that (i) Halliburton selected
a rig that was inappropriate for the geology where the Spirit of America 1 well was located, and (ii) the project supervisor assigned
by Halliburton to oversee the construction and drilling of the Spirit of America 1 well was unqualified and lacked the credentials
and experience to perform the duties required of a project manager. Samson has alleged that Halliburton’s failure in this
regard caused Halliburton to be unable to reach the target reservoir and, in the process, caused Samson to incur $4,505,587 in
costs that could have been avoided if a proper rig and qualified project supervisor had been selected and used on the project.
The parties have attended one mediation session with a court appointed mediator, however this failed to reach an agreement. Another
mediation is scheduled to be held on March 10, 2016.
While Samson believes its counterclaims
are meritorious and is confident that Samson USA will obtain a net positive recovery from the litigation, there can be no assurance
as to the ultimate outcome.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Our failure to close the pending acquisition of oil and
gas assets in North Dakota and Montana may result in a borrowing base deficiency under our credit facility with our primary lender.
If not timely remedied, this borrowing base deficiency would result in an event of default under the credit facility.
The closing of our pending
acquisition of certain oil and gas assets in North Dakota and Montana is contingent on our obtaining financing to pay the
remaining $16 million of the $16.5 million purchase price for the assets. As of February, 15, 2016, the seller has the
right to terminate the purchase and sale agreement at any time. If this acquisition does not close as proposed or is
terminated by the seller, it is likely that our borrowing base would be decreased, and we would need to repay outstanding
amounts under the credit facility in excess of the decreased borrowing base to cure the resulting breach. Under the credit
facility, we must commence repayment of outstanding amount in excess of the reduced borrowing base within 30 days of our
receipt of a borrowing base deficiency notice. Such excess is required to be repaid in six equal consecutive monthly
installments, unless our primary lender consents to an extension or amendment to this timeline. Our failure to timely
repay such amounts would be deemed an event of default under our credit agreement. In the current oil pricing climate, there
can be no guarantee of our ability to timely repay such amounts, at which time will need to assess our liquidity position.
In addition to the risks described
above and the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors
discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2015. The risks disclosed herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K could materially affect our business,
financial condition or future results. The risks described herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not
the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem
to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results in the
future.

- DefinitionThe capitalized costs incurred (excluded from amortization), as of the date of the balance sheet, in identifying areas that may warrant examination and in examining specific areas that are considered to have prospects of containing oil and gas reserves, including costs of drilling exploratory wells and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells. Exploration costs may be incurred both before acquiring the related property (sometimes referred to in part as prospecting costs) and after acquiring the property. Principal types of exploration costs, which include depreciation and applicable operating costs of support equipment and facilities and other costs of exploration activities, are: costs of topographical, geographical and geophysical studies, rights of access to properties to conduct those studies, and salaries and other expenses of geologists, geophysical crews, and others conducting those studies. Collectively, these are sometimes referred to as geological and geophysical or "G&G" costs. Exploration costs also include costs of carrying and retaining undeveloped properties, such as delay rentals, ad valorem taxes on properties, legal costs for title defense, the maintenance of land and lease records, dry hole contributions and bottom hole contributions, costs of drilling and equipping exploratory wells and costs of drilling exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells.

- DefinitionExploration expenses (including prospecting) related to oil and gas producing entities and would be included in operating expenses of that entity. Costs incurred in identifying areas that may warrant examination and in examining specific areas that are considered to have prospects of containing oil and gas reserves, including costs of drilling exploratory wells and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells. Exploration costs may be incurred both before acquiring the related property (sometimes referred to in part as prospecting costs) and after acquiring the property. Principal types of exploration costs, which include depreciation and applicable operating costs of support equipment and facilities and other costs of exploration activities, are: (i) Costs of topographical, geographical and geophysical studies, rights of access to properties to conduct those studies, and salaries and other expenses of geologists, geophysical crews, and others conducting those studies. Collectively, these are sometimes referred to as geological and geophysical or "G&G" costs. (ii) Costs of carrying and retaining undeveloped properties, such as delay rentals, ad valorem taxes on properties, legal costs for title defense, and the maintenance of land and lease records. (iii) Dry hole contributions and bottom hole contributions. (iv) Costs of drilling and equipping exploratory wells. (v) Costs of drilling exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells.

1. Basis of Presentation
These Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial reporting. All adjustments which are normal and recurring by nature, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair statement of Samson Oil & Gas Limited’s (the Company) Consolidated Financial Statements have been included herein. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of expected annual results because of the impact of fluctuations in prices received for oil and natural gas, as well as other factors. In the course of preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes various assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and in the disclosures of commitments and contingencies. Changes in these assumptions, judgments and estimates will occur as a result of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events, and, accordingly, actual results could differ from amounts previously established.
The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting principles and policies reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2015. The year-end Consolidated Balance Sheet presented herein was derived from audited Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report (“Form 10-K”).
Accruals. Accrued liabilities at December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 consist primarily of estimates for goods and services received but not yet invoiced.
Prepayments. Prepayments at December 31, 2015 consist primarily of a $0.5 million deposit paid in connection with a purchase and sale agreement that we entered into on December 31, 2015. This deposit is only refundable if certain conditions with respect to title of environmental defects are identified and the transaction does not close as proposed. Refer to the discussions below under “Credit Facility” and “Subsequent Events” for additional discussion of this agreement. Other prepayments include insurance premiums paid in advance for the year.
Prepayments at June 30, 2015 consists primarily of cash advanced to the operators of our South Prairie exploration project for a future exploration well and insurance premiums paid in advance for the year. The exploration well was drilled in October 2015 and was a dry hole. Costs were expensed as incurred.
Comparatives. Changes have been made to the classification of certain prior period comparatives in order to remain consistent with the current period presentation.
Recent Accounting Standards
There are no new accounting pronouncements that have not been adopted by the Company as of December 31, 2015 that will have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has cumulative net operating losses (“NOLs”) that may be carried forward to reduce taxable income in future years. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 contains provisions that limit the utilization of NOLs if there has been a change in ownership as described in Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company’s prior year NOLs are limited by IRC Section 382.

ASC Topic 740 requires that a valuation allowance be provided if it is more likely than not that some portion or all deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s ability to realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets will depend on the generation of future taxable income through profitable operations. Due to the Company’s history of losses and the uncertainty of future profitable operations, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

Earnings Per Share |
3. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to ordinary shares by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Under the treasury stock method, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding including all potentially dilutive ordinary shares (which in Samson’s case consists of unexercised stock options). In the event of a net loss, however no potential ordinary shares are included in the calculation of shares outstanding since the impact would be anti-dilutive.
The following table details the weighted average dilutive and anti-dilutive securities outstanding, which consist of transferable options to purchase ordinary shares which are tradeable on the ASX (“options”), for the periods presented:

Asset Retirement Obligations |
4. Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company’s asset retirement obligations primarily represent the estimated present value of the amounts expected to be incurred to plug, abandon and remediate producing and shut–in properties at the end of their productive lives in accordance with applicable state and federal laws. The Company determines the estimated fair value of its asset retirement obligations by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows related to those obligations. The significant inputs used to calculate such liabilities include estimates of costs to be incurred, the Company’s credit adjusted discount rates, inflation rates and estimated dates of abandonment. The asset retirement liability is accreted to its present value each period and the capitalized asset retirement cost is depleted using the units–of–production method.
The liabilities settled in the six months to December 31, 2014 relate to work performed to plug and abandon three wells in our Greens Canyon prospect in Wyoming. These wells were drilled 10 years ago and did not produce economic quantities of hydrocarbons. The liabilities settled in the quarter ended December 31, 2015 relates to the plugging of one well in our North Stockyard property, the Harstad. This well’s performance was sub-optimal and experienced high levels of hydrogen sulphide.
The following table summarizes the activities for the Company’s asset retirement obligations for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

Fair Value Measurements |
5. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The FASB has established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
|
|
Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
|
|
|
Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date and for substantially the full term of the instrument. Inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.
|
|
|
Level 3—Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally unobservable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
|
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 Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value as of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015.

Netting In accordance with the Company’s standard practice, its commodity derivatives are subject to counterparty netting under agreements governing such derivatives and therefore the risk of loss is somewhat mitigated. |
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the assets and liabilities in the table above:
Level 1 Fair value Measurements
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and payable and derivatives (discussed below). The carrying values of cash equivalents and accounts receivable and payable are representative of their fair values due to their short–term maturities.
Level 2 Fair Measurements
Derivative Contracts. The Company’s derivative contracts consist of oil collars and oil call options. The fair value of these contracts are based on inputs that are either readily available in the public market, such as oil future prices or inputs that can be corroborated from active markets. Fair value is determined through the use of a discounted cash model using applicable inputs discussed above.
Other fair value measurements
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis.
The Company also applies fair value accounting guidance to measure non–financial assets and liabilities such as business acquisitions, proved oil and gas properties, and asset retirement obligations. These assets and liabilities are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances and are not subject to recurring revaluations. These items are primarily valued using the present value of estimated future cash inflows and/or outflows. Given the unobservable nature of these inputs, they are deemed to be Level 3.
Some oil and gas properties are stated at fair value as at December 31, 2015. As a result of the significant decline in oil prices experienced in recent months, the carrying value of oil and gas properties was reviewed and subject to impairment costs of $9.6 million relating to our North Stockyard field due to the continued decrease in the oil price.

6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company has no accrued environmental liabilities for its sites, including sites in which governmental agencies have designated the Company as a potentially responsible party, because it is not probable that a loss will be incurred and the minimum cost and/or amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated. However, due to uncertainties associated with environmental assessment and remediation activities, future expense to remediate the currently identified sites, and sites identified in the future, if any, could be incurred. Management believes, based upon current site assessments, that the ultimate resolution of any such matters will not materially affect our results of operations or cash flows.
From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings through the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome is not known, management believes that any resolution will not materially impact the financial statements.
Halliburton Dispute
In 2013, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., a co-participant in the Company’s Hawk Springs project, filed a complaint in Harris County, Texas District Court against Samson USA seeking unpaid oil revenue attributable to its ownership interest in the Hawk Springs Project. The unpaid oil revenue was approximately $126,000 at that time, and has since increased to approximately $170,000. Samson USA answered the complaint, including counterclaims against Halliburton arising out of Samson USA’s engagement of Halliburton’s Project Management group in May of 2011 in connection with its drilling program in Roosevelt County, Montana. In those counterclaims, Samson USA claimed approximately $336,000 from Halliburton on account of Halliburton’s refusal to pay an invoice for demobilization of the drilling rig used in the Roosevelt project. Samson USA also counterclaimed for a judicial accounting of the fees and expenses Halliburton charged to Samson in connection with the Spirit of America well in Goshen County, Wyoming, and the Australia II well in Roosevelt County, Wyoming, in light of Samson USA’s prior discovery of self-dealing and bill padding by Halliburton’s onsite project manager. In September 2015, Samson filed an amended counterclaim in which it has alleged that (i) Halliburton selected a rig that was inappropriate for the geology where the Spirit of America 1 well was located, and (ii) the project supervisor assigned by Halliburton to oversee the construction and drilling of the Spirit of America 1 well was unqualified and lacked the credentials and experience to perform the duties required of a project manager. Samson has alleged that Halliburton’s failure in this regard caused Halliburton to be unable to reach the target reservoir and, in the process, caused Samson to incur $4,505,587 in costs that could have been avoided if a proper rig and qualified project supervisor had been selected and used on the project. The parties have attended one mediation session with a court appointed mediator, however this failed to reach an agreement. Another mediation is scheduled to be held on March 10, 2016.
While Samson believes its counterclaims are meritorious and is confident that Samson USA will obtain a net positive recovery from the litigation, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome.

The credit facility in the current period has been presented as a current liability. In previous periods (prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2015) the facility was presented as a non-current liability. Due to the continuing weakness in the global oil price, there is doubt as to whether or not we will be able to meet our future debt covenants. We are working with the bank to renegotiate our facility and will continue to ask for waivers on a quarterly basis as necessary; however there can be no guarantee they will be granted. |
In January 2014, we entered into a $25.0 million credit facility with our primary lender, Mutual of Omaha Bank, with an initial borrowing base of $8.0 million, which was increased to $15.5 million in June 2014. In November 2014, the borrowing base was increased to $19.0 million which was fully drawn down as of December 31, 2015. As a result, unless the borrowing base is increased or we pay down outstanding borrowings, we are unable to borrow additional amounts under this facility.
Our primary lender is currently assessing our borrowing base in conjunction with the pending acquisition of certain assets including proved reserves in Montana and North Dakota, as announced in a Form 8-K filed on January 7, 2016. The acquisition was due to close on February 15th, but the continuing volatility in petroleum markets has prevented us from concluding arrangements for financing of the acquired assets with the our primary lender. While we remain optimistic that we will obtain the necessary financing and close the acquisition, our failure to meet the February 15th deadline entitles the seller to terminate the purchase agreement at any time. We currently expect that the necessary financing will be obtained on or before February 29th, 2016, and that the seller will close the sale on that date. There can be no assurance, however, that the seller will not exercise its right to terminate before we obtain the funds needed and close the transaction. Our primary lender has indicated that it is considering providing the funds needed to close the acquisition. If it does agree to provide the funds, we expect our borrowing base to be increased to $34.5 million following the closing of the acquisition. We believe that this funding would be subject to certain additional commitments, including finding an additional source of capital in order to reduce the lender’s exposure within a reasonable time period following the closing of the acquisition and a continued reduction in our general and administrative expenditure.
If this acquisition does not close as proposed or is terminated by the seller, it is likely that our borrowing base would be decreased, and we would need to repay outstanding amounts under the credit facility in excess of the decreased borrowing base to cure the resulting breach. Under the credit facility, we must commence repayment of outstanding amounts in excess of the reduced borrowing base within 30 days of our receipt of a borrowing base deficiency notice. Such excess is required to be repaid in six equal consecutive monthly installments, unless our primary lender consents to an extension or amendment to this timeline. Our failure to timely repay such amounts would be deemed an event of default under our credit agreement. In the current oil pricing climate, there can be no guarantee of our ability to timely repay such amounts.
Additional increases in the borrowing base, up to the credit facility maximum of $50.0 million, may be made available to us in the future depending on the value of our reserves. Borrowing base redeterminations are performed by the lender every six months based on our June and December reserve reports. We also have the ability to request a borrowing base redetermination at another period, once a year. The facility matures January 28, 2017. The interest rate is LIBOR plus 3.75% or approximately 3.98% for the quarter ended December 31, 2015.
The credit facility includes the following covenants, tested on a quarterly basis:
|
·
| |
Current ratio greater than 1 |
|
·
| |
Debt to EBITDAX (annualized) ratio no greater than 3.5 |
|
·
| |
Interest coverage ratio minimum of between 2.5 and 1.0 |
The credit facility also includes an annual cap on general and administrative expenditures of $6,000,000 per year which was tested for the first time for the calendar year ended December 31, 2014 and each subsequent December 31 thereafter while the facility is in place.
As at December 31, 2014 we were in breach of our debt to EBITDAX covenant. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to this breach for this quarter only. We were in compliance with all other covenants.
As at March 31, 2015 we were in breach of our debt to EBIDTAX covenant. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to this breach for this quarter only. We were in compliance with all other covenants.
We were in compliance with all of our covenants as at June 30, 2015.
As at September 30, 2015 we were in breach of our Debt to EBITDAX and interest coverage ratio covenants. We received a waiver from our primary lender with respect to these covenants for this quarter only.
As at December 31, 2015 we were in breach of our Debt to EBITDAX and interest coverage ratio covenants. We have requested a waiver from our primary lender with respect to these covenants for this quarter only, and it is still considering this request.
If the current pricing environment does not improve it will difficult to maintain compliance with covenants based our current debt levels. If we are not in compliance with the financial covenants in the credit facility, or if we do not receive a waiver from the lender, and if we fail to cure any such noncompliance during the applicable cure period, the due date of our debt could be accelerated by the lender. In addition, failure to comply with any of the covenants under our credit facility could adversely affect our ability to fund ongoing operations.
We incurred $0.4 million in borrowing costs (including legal fees and bank fees) in connection with the establishment of this facility which have been deferred and are being amortized over the life of the facility.

Derivatives [Abstract] |

Derivatives |
11. Derivatives
The Company has not designated any of its derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes. The Company records all derivative contracts at fair value. Changes in derivative contracts are recognized in earnings. Changes in settlements and valuation gains and losses are included in loss/(gain) on derivative instruments in the Statement of Operations. These contracts are settled on a monthly basis. Derivative assets and liabilities arising from the Company’s derivative contracts with the same counterparty that provide for net settlement are reported on a net basis in the Balance Sheet.
The Company is exposed to commodity price risk, which impacts the predictability of its cash flows from the sale of oil. The Company seeks to manage this risk through the use of commodity derivative contracts These derivative contracts allow the Company to limit its exposure to commodity price volatility on a portion of its forecasted oil sales. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s commodity derivative contracts consisted of collars and fixed price swaps, which are described below:
CollarCollars contain a fixed floor price (put) and fixed ceiling price (call). If the market price exceeds the call strike price or falls below the put strike price, the Company receives the fixed price and pays the market price. If the market price is between the call and the put strike price, no payments are due from the either party.
Fixed price swapThe Company receives a fixed price for the contract and pays a floating market price to the counterparty over a specified period for a contracted volume.
All of the Company’s derivative contracts are with the same counterparty (a large multinational oil company) and are shown on a net basis on the Balance Sheet. The Company’s counterparty has entered into an inter-creditor agreement with the Company’s primary lender, and as such, no additional collateral is required by the counterparty.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2015 we recognized $200,017 gain on derivative instruments in the Statement of Operations.
We intend to increase our derivative portfolio as our production increases in order to provide downside protection to our future production.
In October 2014, we entered into a deferred put spread arrangement with respect to 36,600 barrels from production in 2016. These options have a floor of $82.50 (the Company receives $82.50 when the market price settles between $67.50 and $82.50) and a sub floor of $67.50 (the Company receives the market price plus $15 for any prices below $67.50) with a cost of $5.50 per barrel which is deferred until the settlement of the derivative instrument.
In April 2015, we closed out our open 2015 hedge positions (from April 2015 to December 2015) for net proceeds of $1.2 million. We also entered into a three way costless collar arrangement with respect to 73,500 barrels from production from May 2015 to December 2015. These options have a ceiling of $70.50, a floor of $45.00 (the Company receives $45.00 when the market price settles between $32.50 and $45.00) and a sub floor of $32.50 (the Company receives the market price plus $15 for any prices below $32.50).
Also in April, we also entered into a deferred three way collar with respect to 27,375 (average of 75 barrels per day) for 2016 production. The options have a ceiling of $80, a floor or $55 and a sub floor of $45. These options have a premium of $1.63 per barrel, which is deferred until the contract settlement.
At December 31, 2015 the Company’s open derivative contracts consisted of the following:
