PRIMEENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2022

(1) Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of PrimeEnergy Resources Corporation (“PrimeEnergy” or the “Company”) have not been audited by independent public accountants. Pursuant to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations, the accompanying interim financial statements do not include all disclosures presented in annual financial statements and the reader should refer to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the condensed consolidated results of operations, cash flows and equity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, PrimeEnergy’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 1—Description of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies of its consolidated financial statements contained in PrimeEnergy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Certain amounts presented in prior period financial statements have been reclassified for consistency with current period presentation. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. For purposes of disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements, subsequent events have been evaluated through the date the statements were issued.

(2) Acquisitions and Dispositions

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company sold 1,809 net leasehold acres in Reagan and Midland Counties, Texas through two separate transactions receiving gross proceeds of $14.0 million.

(3) Additional Balance Sheet Information:

(4) Long-Term Debt:

Bank Debt:

On February 15, 2017, the Company and its lenders entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2017 Credit Agreement”) with a maturity date of February 15, 2021. Under the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company has a revolving line of credit and letter of credit facility of up to $300 million subject to a borrowing base that is determined semi-annually by the lenders based upon the Company’s financial statements and the estimated value of the Company’s oil and gas properties, in accordance with the Lenders’ customary practices for oil and gas loans. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s oil and gas properties. The 2017 Credit Agreement includes terms and covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum current ratio and total indebtedness to EBITDAX (earnings before depreciation, depletion, amortization, taxes, interest expense and exploration costs) ratio, as defined, and restrictions are placed on the payment of dividends, the amount of treasury stock the Company may purchase, commodity hedge agreements, and loans and investments in its consolidated subsidiaries and limited partnerships.

On December 20, 2021 the company entered into a Seventh Amendment to the 2017 Credit Agreement and Citibank N.A was appointed as successor administrative agent replacing PNC Bank. Under this amendment the Company’s borrowing base is $50 million. Borrowings under the 2017 Credit Agreement will bear interest at alternate base rate (ABR) plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.00% or at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR rate) as administered by the SOFR Administrator, in this case the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.00% to 4.00%. The 2017 Credit Agreement matures February 11, 2023. The current borrowing base review and maturity extension is schedule for June 2022. The Company’s borrowings under this credit facility approximates fair value because the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates.

On March 31, 2022, the Company had a total of $9 million of borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility at a weighted-average interest rate of 6.74% and $41 million was available for future borrowings. The combined weighted average interest rate paid on outstanding bank borrowings subject to ABR base rate and SOFR interest was 6.30% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 as compared to 5.27% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

On May 20, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

(5) Other Long-Term Obligations and Commitments:

Operating Leases:

The Company leases office facilities under operating leases and recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases assets and liabilities are initially recorded at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. A new finance lease for office equipment is included in property and equipment, other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities this quarter. As most of the Company’s lease contracts do not provide an implicit discount rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The weighted average discount rate used was 5.5%. Certain leases may contain variable costs above the minimum required payments and are not included in the right-of-use assets or liabilities. Leases may include renewal, purchase or termination options that can extend or shorten the term of the lease. The exercise of those options is at the Company’s sole discretion and is evaluated at inception and throughout the contract to determine if a modification of the lease term is required. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.

Operating lease costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $142 thousand. Cash payments included in the operating lease cost for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $150 thousand. The weighted-average remaining operating lease terms are 12 months.

The Company amended certain leases for office space in Texas providing for payments of $451,000 in 2022 and $150,000 in 2023.

Rent expense for office space the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $177,000 and $163,000, respectively.

8

The payment schedule for the Company’s operating lease obligations as of March 31, 2022 is as follows:

(Thousands of dollars)	Operating Leases
2022	$	451
2023		150
Total undiscounted lease payments	$	601
Less: Amount associated with discounting		(51	)
Net operating lease liabilities	$	550

Asset Retirement Obligation:

A reconciliation of the liability for plugging and abandonment costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is as follows:

(Thousands of dollars)	March 31, 2022
Asset retirement obligation at December 31, 2021	$	14,295
Liabilities incurred		—
Liabilities settled		(498	)
Accretion expense		170
Asset retirement obligation at March 31, 2022	$	13,967

9

The Company’s liability is determined using significant assumptions, including current estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, annual inflation of these costs, the productive life of wells and a risk-adjusted interest rate. Changes in any of these assumptions can result in significant revisions to the estimated asset retirement obligation. Revisions to the asset retirement obligation are recorded with an offsetting change to producing properties, resulting in prospective changes to depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and accretion of discount. Because of the subjectivity of assumptions and the relatively long life of most of the Company’s wells, the costs to ultimately retire the wells may vary significantly from previous estimates.​​​​​​​

(6) Contingent Liabilities:

The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations. Management believes that future expenses, before recoveries from third parties, if any, will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition. This opinion is based on expenses incurred to date for remediation and compliance with laws and regulations, which have not been material to the Company’s results of operations.

From time to time, the Company is party to certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these events cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not expect these matters to have a materially adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

(7) Stock Options and Other Compensation:

In May 1989, non-statutory stock options were granted by the Company to four key executive officers for the purchase of shares of common stock. At March 31, 2022 and 2021, remaining options held by two key executive officers on 767,500 shares were outstanding and exercisable at prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.25. According to their terms, the options have no expiration date.

(8) Related Party Transactions:

Payables owed to related parties primarily represent receipts collected by the Company as agent for the joint venture partners, which may include members of the Company’s Board of Directors, for oil and gas sales net of expenses.

(9) Financial Instruments

Fair Value Measurements:

Authoritative guidance on fair value measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and stipulates the related disclosure requirements. The Company follows a three-level hierarchy, prioritizing and defining the types of inputs used to measure fair value. The fair values of the Company’s interest rate swaps, natural gas and crude oil price collars and swaps are designated as Level 3. The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

March 31, 2022	Quoted Prices in Active Markets For Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)			Balance at March 31, 2022

Liabilities

The derivative contracts were measured based on quotes from the Company’s counterparties. Such quotes have been derived using valuation models that consider various inputs including current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, quoted forward prices for natural gas and crude oil, volatility factors and interest rates, such as a LIBOR curve for a similar length of time as the derivative contract term as applicable. These estimates are verified using comparable NYMEX futures contracts or are compared to multiple quotes obtained from counterparties for reasonableness.

The significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 derivative contracts include basis differentials and volatility factors. An increase (decrease) in these unobservable inputs would result in an increase (decrease) in fair value, respectively. The Company does not have access to the specific assumptions used in its counterparties’ valuation models. Consequently, additional disclosures regarding significant Level 3 unobservable inputs were not provided.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Net Liabilities — March 31, 2022	$	(12,725	)

(a) Derivative instruments are reported in revenues as realized gain/loss and on a separately reported line item captioned unrealized gain/loss on derivative instruments.

Derivative Instruments:

The Company is exposed to commodity price and interest rate risk, and management considers periodically the Company’s exposure to cash flow variability resulting from the commodity price changes and interest rate fluctuations. Futures, swaps and options are used to manage the Company’s exposure to commodity price risk inherent in the Company’s oil and gas production operations. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to any of its commodity-based derivatives. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with commodity derivative instruments are recognized in earnings.

The following table sets forth the effect of derivative instruments on the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

(10) Earnings Per Share:

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is intended to assist you in understanding our results of operations and our present financial condition. Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Report contain additional information that should be referred to when reviewing this material.

OVERVIEW

We are an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in acquiring, developing, and producing oil and natural gas. We presently own producing and non-producing properties located primarily in Texas, and Oklahoma. In addition, we own a substantial amount of well servicing equipment. All of our oil and gas properties and interests are located in the United States. Assets in our principal focus areas include mature properties with long-lived reserves and significant development opportunities as well as newer properties with development and exploration potential. We believe our balanced portfolio of assets and our ongoing hedging program position us well for both the current commodity price environment and future potential upside as we develop our attractive resource opportunities. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operations and our credit facility.

We attempt to assume the position of operator in all acquisitions of producing properties and will continue to evaluate prospects for leasehold acquisitions and for exploration and development operations in areas in which we own interests. We continue to actively pursue the acquisition of producing properties. To diversify and broaden our asset base, we will consider acquiring the assets or stock in other entities and companies in the oil and gas business. Our main objective in making any such acquisitions will be to acquire income producing assets to build stockholder value through consistent growth in our oil and gas reserve base on a cost-efficient basis.

Our cash flows depend on many factors, including the price of oil and gas, the success of our acquisition and drilling activities and the operational performance of our producing properties. We use derivative instruments to manage our commodity price risk. This practice may prevent us from receiving the full advantage of any increases in oil and gas prices above the maximum fixed amount specified in the derivative agreements and subjects us to the credit risk of the counterparties to such agreements. Since all our derivative contracts are accounted for under mark-to-market accounting, we expect continued volatility in gains and losses on mark-to-market derivative contracts in our consolidated statement of operations as changes occur in the NYMEX price indices.

Our financial results depend on many factors, particularly the price of natural gas and crude oil and our ability to market our production on economically attractive terms. Commodity prices are affected by many factors outside of our control, including changes in market supply and demand, which are impacted by weather conditions, pipeline capacity constraints, inventory storage levels, basis differentials and other factors. In addition, our realized prices are further impacted by our derivative and hedging activities.

We derive our revenue and cash flow principally from the sale of oil, natural gas and NGLs. As a result, our revenues are determined, to a large degree, by prevailing prices for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs. We sell our oil and natural gas on the open market at prevailing market prices or through forward delivery contracts. Because some of our operations are located outside major markets, we are directly impacted by regional prices regardless of Henry Hub, WTI or other major market pricing. The market price for oil, natural gas and NGLs is dictated by supply and demand; consequently, we cannot accurately predict or control the price we may receive for our oil, natural gas and NGLs. Index prices for oil, natural gas and NGL’s have improved since the lows of 2020, however, we expect prices to remain volatile and consequently cannot determine with any degree of certainty what effect increases or decreases in these prices will have on our capital program, production volumes or revenue.

We are the operator of the majority of our developed and undeveloped acreage which is nearly all held by production. In the Permian Basin of West Texas and eastern New Mexico the Company maintains an acreage position of approximately 17,148 gross (10,640 net) acres, 97% of which is located in Reagan, Upton, Martin, and Midland counties of Texas where our current horizontal drilling activity is focused. We believe this acreage has significant resource potential in the Spraberry and Wolfcamp intervals for additional horizontal drilling that could support the drilling of as many as 250 additional horizontal wells. In Oklahoma we maintain an acreage position of approximately 48,400 gross (10,802 net) acres. Our Oklahoma horizontal development is focused primarily in Canadian, Kingfisher, Grady, and Garvin counties. We believe approximately 6,200 net acres in these counties hold significant additional resource potential that could support the drilling of as many as 5 new horizontal wells based on an estimate of four wells per section, two in the Mississippian and two in the Woodford Shale. Should we choose to participate with a working interest in future development, our share of these future capital expenditures would be approximately $36 million at an average 10% ownership level.

Future development plans are established based on various factors, including the expectation of available cash flows from operations and availability of funds under our revolving credit facility.

In several of our producing regions we have field service groups to service our operated wells and locations as well as third-party operators in the area. These services consist of well service support, site preparation and construction services for drilling and workover operations. Our operations are performed utilizing workover or swab rigs, water transport trucks, saltwater disposal facilities, various land excavating equipment and trucks we own and that are operated by our field employees.

Gulf Coast Region

Our activities in the Gulf Coast region are primarily production and development of our existing operated properties concentrated in east and southeast Texas. This region is managed from our office in Houston, Texas. Principal producing intervals are in the Wilcox, San Miguel, Olmos, and Yegua formations at depths ranging from 3,000 to 12,500 feet. As of December 31, 2021, we had 207 producing wells (105 net) in the Gulf Coast region, of which 137 wells are operated by us. Average net daily production in our Gulf Coast Region in 2021 was 336 Boe. At December 31, 2021, we had 906 MBoe of proved reserves in the Gulf Coast region, which represented 7% of our total proved reserves. We maintain an acreage position of over 11,000 gross (3,447 net) acres in this region, primarily in Dimmit and Polk counties. We operate a field service group in this region from a field office in Carrizo Springs, Texas utilizing four workover rigs, nineteen water transport trucks, two saltwater disposal wells and several trucks and excavating equipment. Services including well service support, site preparation and construction services for drilling and workover operations are provided to third-party operators as well as utilized in our own operated wells and locations. As of March 31, 2022, the Gulf Coast region has no operated wells in the process of being drilled, no waterfloods in the process of being installed and no other related activities of material importance.

Mid-Continent Region

Our Mid-Continent activities are concentrated in central Oklahoma. This region is managed from our office in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. As of December 31, 2021, we had 549 producing wells (189 net) in the Mid-Continent area, of which 195 wells are operated by us. Principal producing intervals are in the Roberson, Avant, Skinner, Sycamore, Bromide, McLish, Hunton, Mississippian, Oswego, Red Fork, and Chester formations at depths ranging from 1,100 to 10,500 feet. Average net daily production in our Mid-Continent Region in 2021 was 747 Boe. At December 31, 2021, we had 2,383 MBoe of proved reserves in the Mid-Continent area, representing 20% of our total proved reserves. We maintain an acreage position of approximately 48,400 gross (10,802 net) acres in this region, primarily in Canadian, Kingfisher, Grant, Major, and Garvin counties. Our Mid-Continent region is actively participating with third-party operators in the horizontal development of lands that include Company owned interests in several counties in the Stack and Scoop plays of Oklahoma where drilling primarily targets reservoirs of the Mississippian, and Woodford formations.

In the first quarter of 2022, in the Mid-Continent region the Company committed to participate with 9.38% interest in the drilling of four horizontal wells in Canadian County, Oklahoma operated by Ovintiv Mid-Continent Inc. The first of these was spud April 2, and the fourth on May 1, 2022. All four wells are expected to be completed and online in July of this year. These proved undeveloped drilling plans and their reserves were not included in the 2021 year-end reserve report.

15

West Texas Region

Our West Texas activities are concentrated in the Spraberry and Wolfcamp shale plays of the Permian Basin encompassing eight counties in West Texas. The oil produced from these shales is West Texas Intermediate Sweet and the gas is primarily casing-head gas with an average energy content of 1,400 Btu. The horizontal target depths range from 7,600 feet to 12,500 feet. This region is managed from our office in Midland, Texas.

As of December 31, 2021, we had 576 wells (263 net) in the West Texas area, of which 321 wells are operated by us. Average net daily production in Our West Texas Region in 2021 was 2,878 Boe. At December 31, 2021, we had 8,957 MBoe of proved reserves in the West Texas area, or 73% of our total proved reserves. We maintain an acreage position of approximately 17,148 gross (10,640 net) acres in the Permian Basin in West Texas, primarily in Reagan, Upton, Martin, and Midland counties and believe this acreage has significant resource potential for horizontal drilling in the Spraberry, Jo Mill, and Wolfcamp intervals. We operate a field service group in this region utilizing nine workover rigs, four hot oiler trucks, one kill truck, and two roustabout trucks. Services, including well service support, site preparation, and construction services for drilling and workover operations, are provided to third-party operators as well as utilized in our own operated wells and locations.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company participated with 10.3% interest in the drilling of four 1.5-mile long horizontal wells in Irion County, Texas operated by SEM Operating Company, LLC. All four wells have finished drilling and are awaiting completion which is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2022.

In addition, the Company has received proposals for 13 new horizontal wells in West Texas planned for the third quarter. We intend to participate for 50% interest in the drilling of nine horizontal wells in Reagan County, Texas with BTA Oil Producers, Inc and to participate for 38% in the drilling of four horizontal wells in Martin County, Texas with ConocoPhilips. We also anticipate to begin development of ten new horizontal wells with Hibernia Energy III, LLC, in Reagan County, Texas, in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company will own approximately 25% of these ten wells expected to be completed in 2023. These proved undeveloped drilling plans were added in 2022, and are therefore not represented in the year-end 2021 reserves report.

Reserve Information:

Our interests in proved developed and undeveloped oil and gas properties, including the interests held by the Partnerships, have been evaluated by Ryder Scott Company, L.P. for each of the three years ended December 31, 2021. The professional qualifications of the technical persons primarily responsible for overseeing the preparation of the reserve estimates can be found in Exhibit 99.1, the Ryder Scott Company, L.P. Report on Registrant’s Reserves Estimates. In matters related to the preparation of our reserve estimates, our district managers report to the Engineering Data manager, who maintains oversight and compliance responsibility for the internal reserve estimate process and provides oversight for the annual preparation of reserve estimates of 100% of our year-end reserves by our independent third-party engineers, Ryder Scott Company, L.P. The members of our district and central groups consist of degreed engineers and geologists with between approximately twenty and thirty-five years of industry experience, and between eight and twenty-five years of experience managing our reserves. Our Engineering Data manager, the technical person primarily responsible for overseeing the preparation of reserves estimates, has over thirty years of experience, holds a Bachelor degree in Geology and an MBA in finance and is a member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers and American Association of Petroleum Geologist. See Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”, for additional discussions regarding proved reserves and their related cash flows. All of our reserves are located within the continental United States. The following table summarizes our oil and gas reserves at each of the respective dates:

	Reserve Category
	Proved Developed								Proved Undeveloped								Total
As of December 31,	Oil (MBbls)		NGLs (MBbls)		Gas (MMcf)		Total (MBoe)		Oil (MBbls)		NGLs (MBbls)		Gas (MMcf)		Total (MBoe)		Oil (MBbls)		NGLs (MBbls)		Gas (MMcf)		Total (MBoe)
2019		4,381		2,914		19,995		10,268		1,833		1,017		4,547		3,608		6,214		3,931		24,542		14,235
2020		2,684		2,258		13,633		7,214		1,784		787		3,897		3,221		4,468		3,045		17,530		10,435
2021		5,386		2,882		23,902		12,252		—		—		—		—		5,386		2,882		23,902		12,252

(a) In computing total reserves on a barrels of oil equivalent (Boe) basis, gas is converted to oil based on its relative energy content at the rate of six Mcf of gas to one barrel of oil and NGLs are converted based upon volume; one barrel of natural gas liquids equals one barrel of oil.

In 2019, in West Texas, we participated in the initial three shallow horizontals on our Kashmir tract with one of each of these wells completed in the Wolfcamp “A”, Jo Mill, and Lower Spraberry. The Company has 48% interest in two of these wells and 5.3% in one well. All three wells were brought on production in May of 2019.

16

In 2020, in West Texas we participated in the drilling of seven wells: one for 8.6% interest which was brought into production in July of 2020, and six wells with an average 47.5% interest that were drilled but not completed at year-end and therefore classified as Proved Undeveloped in the year-end reserve report. The Company invested approximately $8.0 million in these seven wells in 2020. Also in 2020, proved producing reserves were added in West Texas through the addition of 11 horizontal wells completed in Midland County, Texas, in which we receive 0.56% to 1% over-riding royalty interest.

In 2021, in West Texas, we participated with Apache in the drilling of three additional horizontals on the Kashmir Tract in Upton County, Texas and completed these three wells in September of 2021 along with six other wells drilled in 2020 on the same lease that were drilled but uncompleted at year-end 2020. The Company has an average of 47.8% interest in these nine wells and invested approximately $30 million in these horizontal wells.

In our Oklahoma, Scoop-Stack play, in 2019, we participated in the drilling and completion of six wells on our WM Wallace tract for 7.67% interest, and nine wells, included on our Slash, Osborn, and Leon tracts, with an average 1.34% interest. In addition, three wells drilled in Oklahoma in 2018, were completed in 2019 converting 24 Mboe of reserves to proved developed. Also in Oklahoma, six wells designated as Shut-in on December 31, 2018, were brought into production in 2019: five located on our Ruthie tract, and one on our Braum tract.

In 2019, in our Gulf Coast region, we added production through the recompletion of three vertical wells in Polk County, Texas: one operated by the Company in which we have 72.5% interest, and two operated by Unit Petroleum in which the Company owns 2.81% working interest and 3.77% net revenue interest. In 2020, the Company successfully recompleted one additional operated well in the Segno field with a 72.5% interest.

At December 31, 2020, in total, the Company had 3,221 Mboe of proved undeveloped reserves attributable to 13 wells operated by others, 10 of which were drilled but not completed by year-end 2020, and three that were not drilled until 2021. The three new horizontals along with the six uncompleted wells at year-end were brought online in late September and early October of 2021. These successful new wells are on our Kashmir tract in Upton County, Texas operated by Apache Corporation. These nine PUD wells at year-end 2020 accounted for 3,127 Mboe of the total undeveloped reserves where the Company has an average 47.5% interest and invested approximately $30 million dollars in these wells. The four other PUD wells, drilled but not completed at year-end 2020, are located in Grady County, Oklahoma and accounted for 95 Mboe of the total undeveloped reserves.    

At December 31, 2021, the Company had 159 Mboe of proved developed shut-in reserves attributable to three horizontal wells drilled and completed in Canadian County, Oklahoma in December of 2021, but not yet online. Three of the four wells were successfully completed and online in January, 2022, while one well had completion issues and has been temporarily abandoned. In regard to the four drilled but uncompleted PUD wells in Grady County, Oklahoma, noted in the paragraph above, reserves previously attributed to these wells were not included in the 2021 year-end reserve report as the operator has no near-term plans for their completion.

In the first quarter of 2022, in our West Texas horizontal drilling program, the Company participated with 10.3% interest in the drilling of four horizontal wells with SEM Operating Company and has received proposals for an additional 23 horizontal wells to begin this year. In total the Company is likely to invest approximately $76 million in these 27 wells. In Oklahoma, thus far in 2022, the Company is participating for 9.38% interest with Ovintiv Mid-Continent in the drilling of four wells in Canadian County, Oklahoma. These four wells and the four SEM wells are anticipated to be online in July of this year.    Additional drilling and future development plans will be established based on an expectation of available cash flows from operations and availability of funds under our revolving credit facility.

We employ technologies to establish proved reserves that have been demonstrated to provide consistent results capable of repetition. The technologies and economic data being used in the estimation of our proved reserves include, but are not limited to, electrical logs, radioactivity logs, geologic maps, production data, and well test data. The estimated reserves of wells with sufficient production history are estimated using appropriate decline curves. Estimated reserves of producing wells with limited production history and for undeveloped locations are estimated using performance data from analogous wells in the area. These wells are considered analogous based on production performance from the same formation and with similar completion techniques.

17

The estimated future net revenue (using current prices and costs as of those dates) and the present value of future net revenue (at a 10% discount for estimated timing of cash flow) for our proved developed and proved undeveloped oil and gas reserves at the end of each of the three years ended December 31, 2021, are summarized as follows (in thousands of dollars):

	Proved Developed				Proved Undeveloped				Total
As of December 31,	Future Net Revenue		Present Value 10 Of Future Net Revenue		Future Net Revenue		Present Value 10 Of Future Net Revenue		Future Net Revenue		Present Value 10 Of Future Net Revenue		Present Value 10 Of Future Income Taxes		Standardized Measure of Discounted Cash flow
2019	$	116,592	$	82,155	$	42,700	$	17,876	$	159,292	$	100,031	$	18,419	$	81,612
2020	$	43,886	$	34,717	$	37,346	$	21,823	$	81,232	$	56,539	$	14,920	$	41,619
2021	$	275,227	$	171,906	$	—	$	—	$	275,227	$	171,906	$	36,100	$	135,806

The PV 10 Value represents the discounted future net cash flows attributable to our proved oil and gas reserves before income tax, discounted at 10%. Although this measure is not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we believe that the presentation of the PV10 Value is relevant and useful to investors because it presents the discounted future net cash flow attributable to proved reserves prior to taking into account corporate future income taxes and the current tax structure. We use this measure when assessing the potential return on investment related to oil and gas properties. The PV10 of future income taxes represents the sole reconciling item between this non-GAAP PV10 Value versus the GAAP measure presented in the standardized measure of discounted cash flow. A reconciliation of these values is presented in the last three columns of the table above. The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows represents the present value of future cash flows attributable to proved oil and natural gas reserves after income tax, discounted at 10%.

“Proved developed” oil and gas reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered from existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. “Proved undeveloped” oil and gas reserves are reserves that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. Our reserves include amounts attributable to non-controlling interests in the Partnerships. These interests represent less than 10% of our reserves.

In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, product prices are determined using the twelve-month average oil and gas index prices, calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average for the first day of the month price for each month, adjusted for oilfield or gas gathering hub and wellhead price differentials (e.g. grade, transportation, gravity, sulfur, and basic sediment and water) as appropriate. Also, in accordance with SEC specifications and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, changes in market prices subsequent to December 31 are not considered.

While it may be reasonably anticipated that the prices received for the sale of our production may be higher or lower than the prices used in this evaluation, as described above, and the operating costs relating to such production may also increase or decrease from existing levels, such possible changes in prices and costs were, in accordance with rules adopted by the SEC, omitted from consideration in making this evaluation for the SEC case. Actual volumes produced, prices received and costs incurred may vary significantly from the SEC case.

Natural gas prices, based on the twelve-month average of the first of the month Henry Hub index price, were $3.598 per MMBtu in 2021 as compared to $1.985 per MMBtu in 2020, and $2.581 per MMBtu in 2019. Oil prices, based on the NYMEX first of the month average price, were $66.56 per barrel in 2021 as compared to $39.57 per barrel in 2020, and $55.69 per barrel in 2019. Since January 1, 2021, we have not filed any estimates of our oil and gas reserves with, nor were any such estimates included in any reports to, any federal authority or agency, other than the Securities and Exchange Commission.

RECENT ACTIVITIES

The Company’s activities include development and exploratory drilling. Our strategy is to develop the Company’s extensive oil and gas reserves primarily through horizontal drilling. This strategy includes targeting reservoirs with high initial production rates and cash flow as well as targeting reservoirs with lower initial production rates but with higher expected return on investment. We believe that with today’s technology, horizontal development of our reserves provides superior economic results as compared to vertical development, by delivering higher production rates through greater contact and stimulation of a larger volume of reservoir rock while minimizing the surface footprint required to develop those same reserves.

18

Maintaining a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity are key components of our business strategy. In 2022, we will continue our focus on preserving financial flexibility and ample liquidity as we manage the risks facing our industry. Our capital budget for the year is• reflective of current commodity prices and has been established based on an expectation of available cash flows, with any cash flow deficiencies expected to be funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As we have done historically to preserve or enhance liquidity, we may adjust our capital program throughout the year, divest non-strategic assets, or enter into strategic joint ventures.

In the third quarter of 2021, nine two-mile horizontal wells in Upton County, Texas, operated by Apache Corporation, were completed and brought into production. In the fourth quarter of 2021, three two-mile horizontal wells operated by Ovintiv Mid-Continent in Canadian County, Oklahoma were completed and brought online in January 2022. The Company has an average of 47.5% interest in the nine wells completed with Apache and 11.25% interest in the three wells completed with Ovintiv.

To date in 2022, the Company has participated with SEM Operating Company LLC in the drilling of four 7,900’ horizontal wells in Irion County, Texas with 10.3% interest, and participated with Ovintiv Mid-Continent Inc in the drilling of four 10,000’-long horizontal wells in Canadian County, Oklahoma with 9.38% interest. We expect all eight of these wells to be completed soon and online in July of this year. An additional 23 wells are planned to begin development in the second half of 2022; nine with BTA Oil Producers, four with ConocoPhilips, and ten with Hibernia Energy III>

Since the start of our West Texas horizontal drilling program, in 2015, we have participated in 81 wells and invested approximately $130 million in horizontal drilling in the Permian Basin. This includes the four wells currently in progress with SEM Operating Company in Irion County, Texas.

In Upton County, Texas, we are developing a contiguous 3,260 acre block with our joint venture partner, Apache Corporation. In this block the Company has 2,600 leasehold acres with interest between 14% and 56% depending on the particular lease and depth being developed. In 2018, eight successful wells were drilled horizontally by Apache Corporation in the Wolfcamp “B” of this block with the Company participating for 49% interest and this is believed to be full development of the Wolfcamp “B” reservoir. Together with Apache, we are planning development of the Upper Wolfcamp, Jo Mill, and Lower Spraberry reservoirs of this block. These shallower reservoirs have been proven-up on our offset 1,300 acre Kashmir tract. It is expected that as many as 54 additional horizontals will be developed on this 3,260 acres in the near future. This development is estimated to cost approximately $370.6 million, with the Company’s share being approximately $170.8 million. In addition to the 54 prospective wells to be drilled for these three reservoirs, a fourth target reservoir, the Middle Spraberry, is also prospective for future development. The potential of the Middle Spraberry on the 3,260 acre block is for 18 horizontal wells to be drilled and completed at a gross cost of approximately $126.3 million with the Company’s share being approximately $61.8 million. The actual number of wells that are eventually drilled as well as the cost and the timing of drilling will vary based upon many factors, including commodity market conditions.

In addition to the 3,260 acre block being developed, as described above, the Company is also developing an offsetting 1,300 acre block in Upton County, Texas, with Apache Corporation as operator. In the second quarter of 2019 three horizontal wells were completed and brought on production from reservoirs above the Middle Wolfcamp: one in the Wolfcamp “A”, one in the Jo Mill, and one in the Lower Spraberry, confirming the economic viability of these reservoirs on our acreage. Prime holds 47.5% working interest in these reservoirs. As a result of the success of the initial three wells, nine additional horizontals followed and were completed in the third quarter of 2021. Our average 47.5% share of the cost of these nine horizontal wells was approximately $26.7 million in total.    In addition to the Wolfcamp “A”, Jo Mill and Lower Spraberry, that are now considered fully developed on the tract, four locations in the Middle Spraberry will be considered for future development at an estimated gross cost of approximately $30.2 million with the Company’s share being approximately $14.2 million.

Also in the Permian Basin of West Texas, we are developing a 965 acre block with ConocoPhillips in Martin County, Texas. In 2016 and 2017, four horizontal wells were drilled, completed, and put on production. The Company owns 35% to 38% interest in this joint venture acreage and we have received drilling plans from ConocoPhilips for the drilling of four wells in the third quarter of 2022 that are likely to be 2.5-mile laterals. The Company’s investment in these wells is expected to be $15 million.

In 2022, in West Texas, the Company is currently participating for 10.3% interest with SEM Operating Company in the drilling of four 7,900’-long horizontal wells in Irion County, Texas. We anticipate an investment of $2.55 million in these wells. We have also received proposals from BTA Oil Producers for the drilling of nine 2.5-mile-long horizontals in Reagan County, Texas to begin in the third quarter of this year. The Company intends to participate for its 50% interest in six wells and 31% interest in three wells. Our expected investment in the drilling and completion of these wells is $40.5 million. In addition, we received a proposal from ConocoPhilips for the drilling of four horizontal wells in Marting Couty, and a proposal from Hibernia Energy III for the drilling of ten horizontal wells in Reagan County. We expect the development of these projects to begin in the fourth quarter of 2022. PrimeEnergy will have approximately 38% interest in the four ConocoPhilips wells and 25% interest in the Hibernia Energy wells.

In Oklahoma, we are focused on development of our reserves in Canadian, Grady, Kingfisher, Garfield, Major, and Garvin counties where we have approximately 6,200 net leasehold acres in the Scoop/Stack Play. In 2019, we participated for an average of 4.6% interest with Newfield Exploration in twelve successful wells in Canadian County on our Slash and Wallace tracts. In 2021, we participated for 11.25% interest with Ovintiv Mid-Continent Inc. in four wells on our Peters tract, in Canadian County. Three of these wells were successfully completed in December 2021 and online in January 2022, while one well had completion issues and has been temporarily abandoned. At today’s product prices, payout of the Company’s $2.2 million investment in these four wells is expected to be in approximately six months.    

In April 2022. in Oklahoma, the Company and Ovintiv Mid-Continent began drilling four horizontal wells on our Bohlman tract in the same area as the successful Peters wells. All four of the Bohlman wells have been spud and the first is in the process of being drilled at the time of this writing. The Company is participating with 9.38% interest for approximately $1.8 million through completion which is expected to occur in June and July.

We believe our 6,200 net leasehold acres in Oklahoma have the resource potential to support the drilling of as many as 54 new horizontal wells based on an estimate of four wells per section: two in the Mississippian and two in the Woodford Shale. Should we choose to participate in future development, our share of the capital expenditures would be approximately $36 million at an average 10% ownership level; the Company will otherwise sell its rights for cash, or cash plus a royalty or working interest.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We reported net income of $11.1 million, $5.62 per share, for the three months ended March 2022 compared with a net loss of $1.5 million, $0.73 per share, for the same period of 2021. The current year net income reflects changes in oil, gas and NGLs sales related to increased production combined with higher commodity prices offset by losses on derivative contracts. The significant components of income and expense are discussed below.

Oil, gas and NGLs sales increased 166.9% to $33.9 million for the three months ended March 2022 from $12.7 million in the same period of 2021. Sales vary due to changes in volumes of production sold and realized commodity prices. Our production across all three products increased substantially reflecting the production from our West Texas wells added in the fourth quarter of 2021 and our Oklahoma wells which were placed in production in January 2022. The changes in volumes and prices are presented in the table below.

The following table summarizes the primary components of production volumes and average sales prices realized for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (excluding realized gains and losses from derivatives).

			Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021		Increase / (Decrease)		Increase / (Decrease)

Average Price Received	$	37.03	$	20.29	$	16.74		82.40	%
Natural Gas Liquids Revenue (In 000’s)	$	3,851	$	1,745	$	2,106		120.69	%
Total Oil & Gas Revenue (In 000’s)	$	33,902	$	12,673	$	21,229		167.51	%

Losses on derivative instruments We do not apply hedge accounting to any of our commodity-based derivatives, thus changes in the fair market value of commodity contracts held at the end of a reported period, referred to as mark-to-market adjustments, are recognized as unrealized gains and losses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As oil and natural gas prices remain volatile, mark-to-market accounting treatment creates volatility in our revenues. Unrealized and realized losses by product are presented in the table below.

	2022			2021
Unrealized (loss) on natural gas derivative instruments	$	(1,948	)	$	(15	)
Unrealized (loss) on crude oil derivative instruments		(5,191	)		(896	)
Realized (loss) on natural gas derivative instruments		(620	)		(60	)
Realized (loss) on crude oil derivative instruments		(3,199	)		(152	)
	$	(10,958	)	$	(1,123	)

Average oil and gas prices received for the three months ended March 31, including the impact of derivatives were:

	2022		2021
Average sales prices per barrel of oil	$	84.52	$	55.70
Average sales price per MCF of natural gas	$	4.02	$	2.40

Field service income increased $1.8 million or 128.6% for the first quarter 2022 to $3.2 million from $1.4 million for the first quarter 2021. This increase is a combined result of increased utilization and rates charged to customers during the current quarter compared to the same quarter in 2021. Workover rig services, hot oil treatments, salt water hauling and disposal represent the bulk of our field service operations.

Lease operating expense increased $4.2 million or 93.3% from $4.5 million for the first quarter 2021 to $8.7 million for the first quarter 2022. This increase reflects the increased production taxes related to the increased oil, gas and NGL revenue, and the additional operating expenses related to the wells added in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022.

Field service expense increased $1.6 million or 114.3% to $3.0 million for the first quarter 2022 from $1.4 million for the first quarter 2021. Field service expenses primarily consist of wages and equipment operating expenses which have increased during the three months ended March 31, 2022 over the same period of 2021 related to increased utilization of the equipment during the current quarter compared to the same quarter in 2021.

Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion on discounted liabilities increased $0.7 million or 10.8% from $6.5 million for the first quarter 2021 to $7.2 million for the first quarter 2022 reflecting the increased production in the first quarter of 2022.

General and administrative expense increased $4.7 million or 235% from $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 to $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase in 2022 is primarily due to increased employee compensation and benefits.

Interest expense decreased $0.2 million or 40% from $0.5 million for the first quarter 2021 to $0.3 million for the first quarter 2022. This decrease reflects the decrease in current borrowings under our revolving credit agreement.

Income tax expense and benefit for the March 31, 2022 and 2021 quarters varied due to the change in net income and loss for those periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Maintaining a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity are key components of our business strategy. For 2022, we will continue our focus on preserving financial flexibility and ample liquidity as we manage the risks facing our industry. Our 2022 capital budget is reflective of commodity prices and has been established based on an expectation of available cash flows, with any cash flow deficiencies expected to be funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As we have done historically to preserve or enhance liquidity, we may adjust our capital program throughout the year, divest assets, or enter into strategic joint ventures.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operations, through our producing oil and gas properties, field services business and sales of acreage. Net cash provided by operating activities and proceeds from the sale of properties for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was $23.3 million, compared to $4.7 million in the prior year.

Excluding the effects of significant unforeseen expenses or other income, our cash flow from operations fluctuates primarily because of variations in oil and gas production and prices or changes in working capital accounts. Our oil and gas production will vary based on actual well performance but may be curtailed due to factors beyond our control.

Our realized oil and gas prices vary due to world political events, supply and demand of products, product storage levels, and weather patterns. We sell the majority of our production at spot market prices. Accordingly, product price volatility will affect our cash flow from operations. To mitigate price volatility, we sometimes lock in prices for some portion of our production through the use of derivatives.

21

Our credit agreement required us to hedge a portion of our production as forecasted for the PDP reserves included in our borrowing base review engineering reports. Accordingly, the Company has in place the following swap agreements for oil and natural gas.

	2022		2023		2022		2023
Swap Agreements
Natural Gas (MMBTU)		919,000		254,000	$	2.96	$	3.60
Oil (barrels)		269,900		70,700	$	62.32	$	69.50

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company participated in the drilling of four wells with SEM Operating Company in Irion County, Texas for 10.3% interest and in April of this year began participating with Ovintiv Mid-Continent in four wells in Canadian County, Oklahoma with 9.38% interest. In addition, the Company has received drilling proposals for an additional 23 horizontal wells to be drilled in West Texas this year. In total the Company is likely to invest approximately $76 million in these 31 wells. Additional drilling and future development plans will be established based on an expectation of available cash flows from operations and availability of funds under our revolving credit facility.

The Company maintains a Credit Agreement providing for a reserves-based line of credit totaling $300 million, with a current borrowing base of $50 million. As of May 20, 2022, the Company has no outstanding borrowings under this line. The bank reviews the borrowing base semi-annually and, at their discretion, may decrease or propose an increase to the borrowing base relative to a re-determined estimate of proved oil and gas reserves. The next borrowing base review is scheduled for June 2022, at this time we expect the borrowing base to be increased approximately 50%. Our oil and gas properties are pledged as collateral for the line of credit and we are subject to certain financial and operational covenants defined in the agreement. We are currently in compliance with these covenants and expect to be in compliance over the next twelve months. If we do not comply with these covenants on a continuing basis, the lenders have the right to refuse to advance additional funds under the facility and/or declare all principal and interest immediately due and payable. Our borrowing base may decrease as a result of lower natural gas or oil prices, operating difficulties, declines in reserves, lending requirements or regulations, the issuance of new indebtedness or for other reasons set forth in our revolving credit agreement. In the event of a decrease in our borrowing base due to declines in commodity prices or otherwise, our ability to borrow under our revolving credit facility may be limited and we could be required to repay any indebtedness in excess of the re-determined borrowing base.

In the first quarter of 2022, The Company sold 1,809 net leasehold acres in Regan and Midland Counties, Texas through two transactions receiving gross proceeds of $14.0 million and retaining certain over-riding royalty interests.

The majority of our capital spending is discretionary, and the ultimate level of expenditures will be dependent on our assessment of the oil and gas business environment, the number and quality of oil and gas prospects available, the market for oilfield services, and oil and gas business opportunities in general.

The Company has a stock repurchase program in place, spending under this program during the first quarter of 2022 was $833 thousand. The Company expects continued spending under the stock repurchase program in 2022.
