(5) Note Receivable

 

We have a decommissioning liability related to the acquisition of a single oil and gas property. Our note receivable arises from a commitment from the seller of the oil and gas property for costs associated with the abandonment of the property. Pursuant to an agreement with the seller, we invoice the seller an agreed upon amount at the completion of certain decommissioning activities.
 

 

During the second quarter of 2022, changes in estimates regarding the timing and the cost of decommissioning our oil and gas property under a reef-in-place program resulted in a reduction in the carrying value of our decommissioning liability and related note receivable, as well as impacted the carrying value of our oil and gas producing assets. Due to the reduction in both costs and timing, our decommissioning liability was reduced by $53.0 million and the related note receivable was increased by $2.6 million. Additionally, in accordance with ASC 410-20, the carrying value of our oil and gas producing assets, which included capitalized oil and gas reserves and capitalized asset retirement costs, was reduced by $38.2 million, which represented the net book value of all of our oil and gas assets at the time of the reduction. In connection with these changes, we recognized a gain of approximately $17.4 million, which is included in other (gains) and losses, net in our statement of operations.

 

Due to the reduction in estimated costs under the reef-in-place program, the gross amount of the seller’s obligation was reduced to $106.9 million as of June 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022 the carrying value of the note receivable was $66.1 million.
 

 

The discount on the note receivable, which is currently based on an effective interest rate of 5.6%, is amortized to interest income over the expected timing of the completion of the decommissioning activities, which are now expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2031. Interest receivable is considered paid in kind and is compounded into the carrying amount of the note.

 

Non-cash interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $0.9 million and $2.9 million respectively. Non-cash interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Successor Period and Predecessor Period was $1.2 million, $3.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively. As the interest income on the note receivable is non-cash, it is included in other reconciling items, net in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
