Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously reported by the Company, on March 22, 2015 Emerald Oil, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. On July 29, 2016, the Company filed with the Bankruptcy Court a Monthly Operating Report for the period beginning June 1, 2016 and ending June 30, 2016. This Monthly Operating Report is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

Cautionary Statement Regarding the Monthly Operating Report

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance on the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period, and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The Monthly Operating Report was not audited or reviewed by an independent registered public accounting firm and was not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Monthly Operating Report is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws and remain subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. Therefore, the Monthly Operating Report does not necessarily contain all information required in filings pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act ”), or may present such information differently from the presentation of information in Exchange Act reports. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Monthly Operating Report is complete. The Monthly Operating Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in Exchange Act reports, and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its Exchange Act reports. Results set forth in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.

Exchange Act Reports

The Company has suspended the filing of its regular periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q with the SEC. The Company, however, intends to furnish copies of the Monthly Operating Report that is required to be submitted to the Bankruptcy Court under cover of Current Reports on Form 8-K and to continue to file Forms 8-K disclosing material developments concerning the Company.
