The estimated fair value is based upon various factors as described in Note 6. Fair Value Measurements.

At March 31, 2024 the Company had outstanding derivative contracts as set forth in the tables below.

Derivative gains and losses

Cash receipts and payments in the following table reflect the gains or losses on derivative contracts which matured during the applicable period, calculated as the difference between the contract price and the market settlement price of matured contracts. The Company's derivative contracts are settled based upon reported settlement prices on commodity exchanges, with crude oil derivative settlements based on NYMEX West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) pricing and natural gas derivative settlements based primarily on NYMEX Henry Hub pricing. Non-cash gains and losses below represent the change in fair value of derivative instruments which

continued to be held at period end and the reversal of previously recognized non-cash gains or losses on derivative contracts that matured during the period.
