12. Derivative Instruments

Commodity Derivatives

The Company may enter into commodity derivative contracts to manage its exposure to oil and gas price volatility associated with its production. These derivatives are not entered into for trading or speculative purposes. While the use of these instruments limits the downside risk of adverse commodity price changes, their use may also limit future cash flows from favorable commodity price changes. Depending on acquisitions consummated, changes in oil and gas futures markets, and management’s view of underlying supply and demand trends, the Company may increase or decrease its derivative positions. The Company’s commodity derivative contracts have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes; therefore, all gains and losses on commodity derivatives are recognized in the Company’s statement of income.

The Company may utilize fixed price swaps, basis swaps, and two- and three-way collars to manage commodity price risks. The Company has entered into these contracts when management believes that favorable future sales prices for the Company’s production can be secured and acquisitions consummated are accretive. Under fixed price swap agreements, when actual commodity prices upon settlement exceed the fixed price provided by the swap contracts, the Company pays the difference to the counterparty. When actual commodity prices upon settlement are less than the contractually provided fixed price, the Company receives the difference from the counterparty. The Company may also enter into basis swap contracts in order to hedge the difference between the New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”) index price and a local index price that is representative of the price received by many of our operators. Under the collars, the Company receives the difference between the published index price and a floor price if the index price is below the floor price or the Company pays the difference between the ceiling price and the index price if the index price is above the ceiling price. No amounts are paid or received if the index is between the floor and the ceiling. By utilizing a collar, the Company has fixed the minimum and maximum prices received on the underlying production.

Credit Risk in Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to credit risk to the extent of nonperformance by the counterparties in the derivative contracts discussed above. All commodity derivative counterparties are current lenders under our Revolving Credit Facility. Accordingly, the Company is not required to provide any credit support to its commodity derivative counterparties other than cross collateralization with the properties securing the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s commodity derivative contracts are documented with industry standard contracts known as a Schedule to the Master Agreement and International Swaps and Derivative Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA”). Typical terms for each ISDA include credit support requirements, cross default provisions, termination events, and set-off provisions. The Company has set-off provisions with its lenders that, in the event of counterparty default, allow the Company to set-off amounts owed under the Revolving Credit Facility or other general obligations against amounts owed for commodity derivative contract liabilities.
