Evolution Petroleum Corporation is a public reporting company classified under Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas. Our oil and natural gas properties consist primarily of non-operated interests in the following areas (as well as small overriding royalty interests in four onshore central Texas wells). Our strategy is focused on owning interests in producing properties that are operated by third parties, and our results are dependent upon the operating and development decisions of those operators. [COMPLETE: description of principal products, markets and strategy beyond the retrieved prior-filing excerpts]
Our non-operated interest in TexMex consists of oil and natural gas producing properties where we hold an approximate 42% net working interest and 35% average net revenue interest located on approximately 27,800 gross (11,200 net) acres (all held by production) primarily in Lea, Eddy and Chaves Counties, New Mexico and Stephens County, Texas. The oil and natural gas properties are operated by Texian Operating Company. Our non-operated interests in the SCOOP and STACK plays consist of oil and natural gas producing properties in the Anadarko basin, where we hold approximately 2.6% average net working interest and approximately 2.0% average net revenue interests located on approximately 103,700 gross (4,200 net) acres (approximately 97% held by production) across Blaine, Canadian, Carter, Custer, Dewey, Garvin, Grady, Kingfisher, McClain, Murray, and Stephens counties in Oklahoma. The oil and natural gas properties are operated by Continental Resources, Inc., Ovintiv USA Inc. [COMPLETE: additional operators and any other property areas]
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, we generated revenue of $85,840,000 and net income of $1,473,000, with revenue essentially unchanged from $85,877,000 in the prior year. Cost of revenue was $49,338,000 compared to $48,273,000 in the prior year, and depreciation, depletion and amortization was $21,993,000 compared to $20,062,000. At year end we held cash and cash equivalents of $2,507,000, total liabilities of $88,439,000 and total equity of $71,813,000. We are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time, and management does not currently believe any pending matter is material to the financial statements. [COMPLETE: number of employees, principal executive office location, competition, regulatory environment, and availability of SEC filings]
Our business is concentrated in the crude petroleum and natural gas industry, and our results depend heavily on the performance of oil and natural gas properties that we do not operate. We are a public reporting company classified under Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas. Our non-operated working interests and overriding royalty interests in the Delhi Field, a CO2-EOR project, consist of approximately 24% average net working interest, with an associated 19% average net revenue interest and separate overriding royalty and mineral interests of approximately 7% yielding a total average net revenue interest of approximately 26%, and the field is operated by Denbury Onshore LLC, a subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation. Our non-operated working interests in TexMex consist of oil and natural gas producing properties where we hold an approximate 42% net working interest and 35% average net revenue interest located primarily in Lea, Eddy and Chaves Counties, New Mexico and Stephens County, Texas, and these properties are operated by Texian Operating Company. Our non-operated interests in the Chaveroo Field consist of a 50% net working interest, with an average associated 41% revenue interest, and the field is operated by PEDEVCO Corp. Our non-operated interests in the Jonah Field, a natural gas and NGL property in Sublette County, Wyoming, consist of approximately 20% average net working interest and approximately 15% average net revenue interest, and the properties are operated by Jonah Energy. Because we rely on third-party operators to make decisions regarding the timing and amount of capital expenditures, drilling, production and operating practices, our ability to influence costs, production levels and the pace of development on these properties is limited, and operator performance, financial condition or strategic priorities may adversely affect our results.
Our revenues and profitability are sensitive to changes in commodity prices and production volumes, and a small margin between revenues and costs leaves limited room to absorb adverse developments. For the period ended June 30, 2025, we reported revenue of $85,840,000 and net income of $1,473,000. Revenue was essentially unchanged from $85,877,000 in the prior period, while cost of revenue increased 2.2% to $49,338,000, depreciation, depletion and amortization increased 9.6% to $21,993,000, and general and administrative expense increased 7.2% to $10,334,000. Interest expense increased 103.6% to $2,970,000 from $1,459,000 in the prior period. We recognized a net gain on derivative contracts of $473,000 in the current period compared with a net loss of $1,292,000 in the prior period, and the results of our hedging activities may vary significantly from period to period. Continued cost inflation, higher borrowing costs or declines in realized prices that are not offset by our derivative positions could reduce or eliminate our net income and adversely affect our ability to fund capital expenditures and return capital to shareholders.
Our liquidity position and leverage expose us to financial risk. Cash and cash equivalents declined 61.1% to $2,507,000 from $6,446,000, while accounts payable increased 55.3% to $12,901,000 and accrued liabilities increased 10.7% to $6,909,000. Total liabilities were $88,439,000 compared with total equity of $71,813,000, and retained earnings declined 37.2% to $25,129,000 from $40,003,000. Our asset retirement obligations increased 12.1% to $21,535,000, and the ultimate cost and timing of plugging, abandonment and site restoration on the properties in which we hold interests may differ materially from our estimates. Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Any inability to maintain adequate liquidity, comply with the terms of our credit arrangements or refinance obligations on acceptable terms could materially and adversely affect our financial condition. [COMPLETE: description of credit facility terms, borrowing base and covenant compliance]
We are also subject to legal, regulatory and internal control risks common to publicly reporting oil and gas companies. We are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time, and management does not currently believe any pending matter is material to the financial statements. Management evaluated disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period and concluded they were effective at the reasonable assurance level, and no changes materially affected internal control over financial reporting during the quarter. Notwithstanding these conclusions, any failure to maintain effective controls, an adverse outcome in litigation, or changes in environmental, tax or other regulations applicable to CO2-enhanced oil recovery and conventional oil and gas operations could result in additional costs, reputational harm or a decline in the market price of our common stock. [COMPLETE: description of environmental, climate-related and regulatory risks specific to CO2-EOR operations and applicable jurisdictions]
EVOLUTION PETROLEUM CORP is a public reporting company classified under Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas. The following discussion compares our results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 to the comparable prior-year period and should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Revenue for fiscal 2025 was $85,840,000 compared to $85,877,000 in the prior year, a decrease of less than 0.1%, reflecting essentially flat top-line performance year over year [COMPLETE: describe production volume and realized commodity price drivers underlying the revenue comparison]. Net income for the year was $1,473,000, and basic earnings per share were $0.03 on weighted-average basic shares outstanding of 33,158,000.
Operating costs increased modestly across most categories while revenue held steady, which compressed our operating margin relative to the prior year. Cost of revenue increased 2.2% to $49,338,000 from $48,273,000, an increase of $1,065,000 [COMPLETE: identify lease operating expense and production tax drivers]. Depreciation, depletion and amortization rose 9.6% to $21,993,000 from $20,062,000, an increase of $1,931,000, consistent with the growth in our asset base as other assets increased 2.7% to $144,165,000 from $140,312,000. General and administrative expense increased 7.2% to $10,334,000 from $9,636,000, an increase of $698,000 [COMPLETE: identify personnel, professional fee, or other G&A drivers]. Interest expense more than doubled, increasing 103.6% to $2,970,000 from $1,459,000, an increase of $1,511,000 attributable to higher average borrowings during the year [COMPLETE: confirm credit facility balances and rates]. We recognized a net gain on derivative contracts of $473,000 in fiscal 2025, compared to a net loss of $1,292,000 in the prior year, a favorable swing of $1,765,000 that partially offset the cost increases described above. Other income statement items contributed income of $191,000 compared to $342,000 in the prior year. Income tax expense declined 72.1% to $396,000 from $1,417,000, a decrease of $1,021,000 driven primarily by lower pre-tax income.
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated from operating activities, and availability under our credit arrangements, and our principal uses of cash are capital expenditures, dividends, debt service, and working capital requirements. Cash and cash equivalents were $2,507,000 at June 30, 2025, compared to $6,446,000 at the end of the prior year, a decrease of 61.1%, or $3,939,000. Accounts receivable were essentially unchanged at $10,804,000 compared to $10,826,000, while prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased 40.7% to $2,287,000 from $3,855,000. Accounts payable increased 55.3% to $12,901,000 from $8,308,000, and accrued liabilities increased 10.7% to $6,909,000 from $6,239,000, reflecting the timing of payments for capital and operating activities at year end. Asset retirement obligations increased 12.1% to $21,535,000 from $19,209,000, and deferred tax liabilities decreased 7.0% to $6,234,000 from $6,702,000. Total liabilities were $88,439,000 and total equity was $71,813,000 at June 30, 2025. Management believes that [COMPLETE: confirm whether cash on hand, expected operating cash flow, and available borrowing capacity are sufficient to fund operations, capital expenditures, and dividends for at least the next twelve months].
We began paying cash quarterly dividends on our common stock in December 2013, and we paid $0.12 per share in each quarter of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, and as of June 30, 2025, we have paid 47 consecutive quarterly dividends on our common stock. In September 2025, the Company declared a $0.12 per share dividend payable on September 30, 2025. Retained earnings decreased 37.2% to $25,129,000 from $40,003,000, a decline of $14,874,000, as dividends paid to stockholders exceeded net income for the year, while additional paid-in capital increased 13.5% to $46,650,000 from $41,091,000, reflecting share issuances during the period. Any future determination with regard to the payment of dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our future earnings, financial condition, results of operations, applicable dividend restrictions, capital requirements, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

Evolution Petroleum Corp is a public reporting company classified under Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas. Our oil and natural gas properties consist primarily of non-operated interests, including our interest in TexMex, where we hold an approximate 42% net working interest and 35% average net revenue interest located on approximately 27,800 gross (11,200 net) acres primarily in Lea, Eddy and Chaves Counties, New Mexico and Stephens County, Texas, and our non-operated interests in the SCOOP and STACK plays in the Anadarko basin, where we hold approximately 2.6% average net working interest and approximately 2.0% average net revenue interests located on approximately 103,700 gross (4,200 net) acres in Oklahoma. The accompanying condensed financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2025 are unaudited, have been prepared from our books and records, and reflect all adjustments that management considers necessary for a fair presentation; results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled, and a valuation allowance is recognized when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Share-based compensation is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as expense over the requisite service period of the award.
Revenue for the period was $85,840,000, compared with $85,877,000 in the prior period, a change of less than 0.1%. Cost of revenue increased 2.2% to $49,338,000 from $48,273,000, and depreciation, depletion and amortization increased 9.6% to $21,993,000 from $20,062,000. We recognized a net gain on derivative contracts of $473,000 in the current period, compared with a net loss on derivative contracts of $1,292,000 in the prior period. At period end, derivative assets totaled $1,975,000, of which $1,777,000 was current and $198,000 was noncurrent, and derivative liabilities totaled $3,360,000, of which $1,577,000 was current and $1,783,000 was noncurrent. Income tax expense was $396,000, compared with $1,417,000 in the prior period, reflecting an effective tax rate of 21.2% against a federal statutory rate of 21.0%. Net income for the period was $1,473,000.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, and diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, except when the effect would be antidilutive. For the period, basic earnings per share was $0.03 and diluted earnings per share was $0.03, based on weighted-average basic shares outstanding of 33,158,000 and net income of $1,473,000. [COMPLETE: weighted-average diluted shares outstanding and number of antidilutive securities excluded from the computation]
Total liabilities at June 30, 2025 were $88,439,000. Unamortized debt issuance costs at period end were $365,000. [COMPLETE: description of credit facility, including outstanding borrowings, borrowing base, interest rate, maturity date, and covenant compliance] Interest expense for the period was $2,970,000, compared with $1,459,000 in the prior period, an increase of 103.6%. Operating lease liabilities consisted of a current portion of $66,000, compared with $98,000 in the prior period, and no noncurrent portion, compared with $58,000 in the prior period, while operating lease right-of-use assets were $58,000, compared with $140,000 in the prior period. Stockholders' equity at period end totaled $71,813,000, consisting of common stock of $34,000, additional paid-in capital of $46,650,000 and retained earnings of $25,129,000. Common stock increased from $33,000 in the prior period, additional paid-in capital increased 13.5% from $41,091,000, and retained earnings decreased 37.2% from $40,003,000. [COMPLETE: shares authorized, issued and outstanding, dividends declared per share, and share repurchase activity during the period]
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, if any. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Receivables are recorded at the amounts contractually due from customers and other counterparties, net of any allowance for amounts not expected to be collected.
Debt is carried at amortized cost. Debt issuance costs and discounts or premiums are presented as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the related debt and amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the debt.
Derivative instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings unless the derivative is designated and qualifies as a hedging instrument, in which case recognition follows the applicable hedge accounting model.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is recognized when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, except when the effect would be antidilutive.
Equity instruments issued by the Company are classified in stockholders' equity based on their terms. The components of stockholders' equity and the changes in those components for the periods presented are set forth in the equity note.
The Company evaluates the applicability and impact of Accounting Standards Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board as they are issued. Adopted updates and updates not yet effective are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements, except as otherwise described in these notes.

Management evaluated disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period and concluded they were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we carried out this evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of June 30, 2025 for EVOLUTION PETROLEUM CORP. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. [COMPLETE: management to review and adopt the foregoing conclusion language, including identification of the certifying officers, before filing.]
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. [COMPLETE: management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, including the framework used (e.g., COSO 2013) and management's conclusion on effectiveness.] [COMPLETE: attestation report of the independent registered public accounting firm, or statement that the report is not required.]
No changes materially affected internal control over financial reporting during the quarter. Accordingly, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time, and management does not currently believe any pending matter is material to the financial statements, and no such matter has been identified as bearing on the effectiveness of our controls.
