NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

March 31, 2019

NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

PetroShare Corp. (“PetroShare” or the “Company”) is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Colorado on September 4, 2012 to investigate, acquire and develop crude oil and natural gas properties in the Rocky Mountain or mid-continent portion of the United States. Since inception, the Company has focused on financing activities and the acquisition, exploration and development of crude oil and natural gas prospects and is currently focused in the Denver-Julesburg Basin, or DJ Basin, in northeast Colorado.

NOTE 2—BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

In management’s opinion, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018, which has been derived from the audited financial statements, and the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Changes in Shareholders’ (Deficit), and Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, contained herein, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows on a basis consistent with that of the Company’s prior audited consolidated financial statements. However, the results of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Unless otherwise noted, there have been no material changes to the footnotes in the financial statements from the audited financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and balances of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CFW Resources, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company. The Company’s undivided interests in joint operating ventures are proportionately consolidated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids are the most significant of the Company’s estimates. All reserve data used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are based on estimates. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved, probable and possible reserves. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. As a result, reserve estimates may be different from the quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that are ultimately recovered.

Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company excluded potentially dilutive securities as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition

Oil sales

Under the Company’s oil sales contracts, the Company sells oil production at the point of delivery and collects an agreed upon index price, net of pricing differentials. The Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the point of delivery at the net price received. Payment is generally received from the customer in the month following delivery.

Natural gas and natural gas liquids

Under the Company’s natural gas sales processing contracts, the Company delivers commingled natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs) to a midstream processing entity. The midstream processing entity gathers and processes the various hydrocarbons and remits proceeds to the Company for the resulting sale. Under these processing agreements, the Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the point of delivery. Payment is generally received from the customer one to two months following delivery. Revenue is recognized net of gathering and processing fees.

Total Operating Revenues	$4,971,530	$2,068,932

Related Party Transactions

The Company engages in a number of transactions with Providence Energy Operators, LLC (“PEO”) and its affiliates. PEO is the beneficial owner of 11.6% of our outstanding common stock. We have a participation agreement that grants PEO the option to acquire up to a 50% interest and participate in any oil and gas development on acreage we obtain within an area of mutual interest (AMI) near our Southern Core area. To date, PEO has exercised its option under the participation agreement or otherwise participated or agreed to participate in all acreage acquisitions and drilling operations. As discussed elsewhere in this report, an affiliate of PEO is a major participant in our principal lender group through the Secured Credit Facility. The Board of Directors is required to approve all significant related party transactions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), followed by other related ASUs that provided targeted improvements and additional practical expedient options (collectively “ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease payment liabilities on the balance sheet for leases representing the Company’s right to use the underlying assets over the lease term. Each lease that is recognized on the balance sheet will be classified as either finance or operating, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statements of operations and presentation within the statements of cash flows.

The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method. The Company elected as part of its adoption to also use the optional transition methodology whereby previously reported periods continue to be reported in accordance with historical accounting guidance for leases that were in effect for those prior periods. Policy elections and practical expedients that the Company has implemented as part of adopting ASC 842 include (a) excluding from the balance sheet leases with terms that are less than or equal to one year, (b) for all existing asset classes that contain both lease and non-lease components, combining these components together and accounting for them as a single lease component, (c) the package of practical expedients, which among other things, allows the Company to avoid reassessing contracts that commenced prior to adoption that were properly evaluated under legacy GAAP, and (d) excluding land easements, which were not accounted for under the previous leasing guidance, that existed or expired before adoption of ASC 842. The scope of ASC 842 does not apply to leases used in the exploration or use of minerals, oil, and natural gas.

March 31, 2019

The Company's adoption of ASC 842 resulted in an increase in other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and other liabilities line items on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a result of the additional ROU assets and related lease liabilities. Upon adoption on January 1, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $0.2 million in ROU assets and liabilities for its operating leases. There was no cumulative effect to accumulated deficit upon the adoption of this guidance. See Note 12 for the new disclosures required by ASC 842.

NOTE 3—GOING CONCERN

In the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, the auditor included an explanatory paragraph concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Pursuant to Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” the Company has assessed its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of the issuance of these financial statements. Substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity may be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year from the financial statement issuance date.

The uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is based on its substantial near-term liabilities, continuing net losses and negative working capital, among other things which existed as of March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2019, the Company had a cash balance of approximately $2.3 million, other current assets of approximately $7.4 million and current liabilities of $46 million, resulting in negative working capital of $36.3 million. The Company had a net loss, including non-cash charges, of $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2019 the Company was in default on the outstanding principal balances of $9.4 million under both issues of convertible notes. The Company is also in default under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility (Note 6) and as a result, $14.3 million of outstanding principal is due. Some accounts payable obligations to vendors are past the due date and some of those vendors have filed liens or indicated an intent to file liens on certain of the Company’s assets and/or commenced legal action to foreclose those liens. The Company has been unable to access the debt or equity markets to obtain any additional funding during 2019.

Management has evaluated these conditions and determined that increased revenues from the Company’s operated properties may allow the Company to meet its obligations. However, to continue to execute its business plan, and meet its debt obligations, additional working capital will be required. As part of the analysis, the Company considered selective participation in certain operated drilling programs based on availability of working capital and the timing of production-related cash flows. There is uncertainty that management’s plans, if executed, will allow the Company to meet all of its obligations.

March 31, 2019

As a result, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the realization of the carrying value of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value for financial assets and liabilities that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

●

Level 1: Quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

●

Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability;

●

Level 3: Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash or valuation models.

The financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

As disclosed in Note 6, the Secured Credit Facility contained embedded elements that required identification and quantification of fair value. The estimated fair values as of February 1, 2018, the closing date of the facility, are presented in Note 6. As of March 31, 2019, the estimated fair values are presented in the following table:

	March 31, 2019
Registration rights penalty derivative liability	$93,024

Included in other comprehensive income	—	—
Ending Balance	$165,088	$241,800

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and credit facility borrowings. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s Secured Credit Facility approximates fair value as it bears interest at variable rates over the term of the loan.

March 31, 2019

On February 27, 2019, the Company completed the sale of certain assets. Based upon the preliminary settlement statement, the $16.5 million sale price for the assets yielded net proceeds of approximately $15.3 million, after adjustments for title defects, inventory, reconciliation of other amounts payable and receivable from the buyer, and transaction costs of the sale. Final settlement of the transaction is scheduled for May 28, 2019. All of the net proceeds from the sale were remitted to the Secured Lenders as required by the Secured Lenders, and have been applied to reduce amounts allegedly owed by the Company under the Secured Credit Facility. Additional information about the use of proceeds from the sale can be found in Note 6.

The assets were classified as Held for Sale as of December 31, 2018 and included as current assets in the financial statements. During the period from January 1, 2019 to February 27, 2019, the assets sold generated revenues of $1.1 million and operating expenses of $0.3 million, resulting in net operating income for those properties of $0.8 million. The terms of the transaction provide that 2019 revenues and expenses accrue to the benefit of the buyer, and accordingly, the Company recorded an adjustment of $0.8 million to the purchase price and the corresponding loss on sale of properties during the period ended March 31, 2019.

NOTE 6—DEBT

10% Convertible Notes

On January 30, 2017, the Company completed the private placement of units consisting of convertible promissory notes (“Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate face value of $10.0 million and common stock purchase warrants. The Convertible Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per year and were due and payable on December 31, 2018. At the option of the holders of the Convertible Notes, the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share.

As of December 31, 2018, the 10% Convertible Notes had an outstanding principal balance of $4.6 million. The 10% Convertible Notes were not paid on their due date of December 31, 2018. The Company’s failure to retire the 10% Convertible Notes was an event of default. The Company has continued to accrue and pay interest at the rate of 10%, in the approximate amount of $0.1 million each calendar quarter. As of March 31, 2019, the principal balance of $4.6 million remains outstanding, and the 10% Convertible Notes remain in default.

Series B Convertible Notes

In September and October 2017, the Company sold Series B Convertible Notes in the principal amount of $4.7 million. The Series B Convertible Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 15% per year, and were due and payable on December 31, 2018. At the option of the holders, the principal amount of the Series B Convertible Notes and any accrued but unpaid interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share.

As of December 31, 2018, the Series B Convertible Notes had an outstanding principal balance of $4.7 million. The Series B Convertible Notes were not paid on their due date of December 31, 2018. The Company’s failure to retire the Series B Convertible Notes was an event of default. The Company has continued to accrue and pay interest at the rate of 15%, in the approximate amount of $0.2 million each calendar quarter. As of March 31, 2019, the principal balance of $4.7 million remains outstanding, and the Series B Convertible Notes remain in default.

The Company has commenced negotiations with holders of the 10% Convertible Notes and the Series B Convertible Notes regarding resolution of the default conditions. At this time, it is not possible to predict the eventual outcome of those negotiations.

Secured Credit Facility

On February 1, 2018, the Company closed on a $25.0 million Secured Credit Facility with Providence Wattenberg, LP and 5NR Wattenberg, LLC (“Secured Lenders”). The Secured Credit Facility incorporated certain provisions of a Letter Agreement entered into by the Company on December 21, 2017 under which the Company borrowed $5.0 million from the Secured Lenders. The closing on February 1, 2018 represented additional borrowings of $20.0 million.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company was in default under certain provisions of the Secured Credit Facility. The default conditions included the non-payment of the 10% Convertible Notes and the Series B Convertible Notes on December 31, 2018, and non-payment of the underwriting fee payable to PEO on February 1, 2019. Other defaults related to non-payment of certain accounts payable and accrued liabilities within a 90-day allowable time period, liens filed in Adams County, Colorado against certain of the Company’s assets, among other conditions.

On March 26, 2019, the Secured Lenders required that the Company pay to them the net proceeds from the Company’s sale of non-operated assets and subsequently applied the net proceeds of $15.3 from sale to the outstanding accrued interest, penalties and principal, resulting in a remaining principal balance of $14.3 million.

On April 2, 2019, the Secured Lenders delivered their formal Notice of Default under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility to confirm their previous communications.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In the following discussion, “PetroShare Corp.,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to PetroShare Corp.

The following discussion analyzes (i) our financial condition at March 31, 2019 and compares it to December 31, 2018, and (ii) our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report and our audited consolidated financial statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Further, we encourage you to review the Cautionary Language Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

Overview

We are an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition and development of crude oil and natural gas properties in the Denver-Julesburg Basin, or the DJ Basin, in northeast Colorado. Our current operating focus is within the Wattenberg Field of the DJ Basin, which is located primarily in Adams and Weld Counties, Colorado. We have pursued the development of our leasehold interests along a new pipeline corridor that has introduced takeaway capacity for both oil and gas across much of our acreage in the Southern Wattenberg field. We have established seven operated drill site spacing units that have been approved by the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (“COGCC”). We believe the improved takeaway capacity enhances the value of our undeveloped leasehold in the area and will lead to expedited development by us and other industry participants.

As an oil and natural gas exploration and production company, our revenue, results of operation, cash flow from operations, reserve values, access to capital and future rate of growth are influenced by the prevailing prices of oil and natural gas. Changes in prices can affect, both positively and negatively, our financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing, operating results, and the amount of oil and natural gas that we choose to produce. Prevailing prices for such commodities fluctuate in response to changes in supply and demand and a variety of additional factors beyond our control, such as global, political and economic conditions. Inherently, the price received for oil and natural gas production is unpredictable, and such volatility is expected. All our production is sold at market prices and, therefore, the amount of revenue that we realize, as well as our estimates of future revenues, is to a large extent determined by factors beyond our control. To date we have not entered into hedging arrangements with respect to any of our future production, but we may choose to do so in the future.

23

Recent Developments

Following are what we believe to be significant developments for our Company during the first quarter of 2019:

●

On February 27, 2019, we completed the sale of our non-operated assets in the Todd Creek Farms area. The assets we sold (collectively, the “Assets”) included our interest in all non-operated horizontal wells, as well as the leases on which those wells are located, oil, gas and other hydrocarbons produced from the leases on or after the effective date of sale, related equipment, machinery, fixtures and other personal property, surface rights and contracts. The effective date of the asset sale was January 1, 2019.

The net purchase price received for the Assets was approximately $15.3 million in cash, net of closing costs, adjustments and broker’s fees. The proceeds of the sale were applied by the Secured Lenders to reduce balances allegedly owed to them under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility.

●

Sales volumes for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were 127,313 BOE as compared to 61,200 BOE for the 2018 period.

●

Average daily production for the first quarter 2019 was 1,414 BOE, as compared to 680 BOE for the 2018 period.

●

Average realized sales price was $39.05 per BOE in 2019 compared to $33.81 for the 2018 period.

●

On March 22, 2019, we received the resignations of three members of our Board of Directors: Michael Allen, Joseph Drysdale and Cullen Schaar, effective immediately. These directors had been appointed by the Secured Lenders under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility. None of the directors expressed any disagreement with our company or its Board of Directors that precipitated the resignations. The Board of Directors plans to continue with a reduced membership of six directors.

●

On April 16, 2019, COLORADO SB-181 (“SB-181”) was signed into law. This bill introduces significant changes to the regulation of oil and gas development in the State of Colorado. The bill changes the mandate of the COGCC from that of promoting development of oil and gas to prioritizing the protection of public safety, health, welfare, and the environment. In addition, the bill changes the composition of the COGCC to include more health and safety advocates. The legislation also allows for more local control over the development of oil and gas properties and alters the State statute allowing for “forced pooling” of oil and gas properties. This legislation could significantly impact our ability to obtain permits to drill.

24

●

On March 20, 2019, the Adams County commissioners voted to place a six-month moratorium on the issuance of drilling permits in unincorporated portions of the County due to SB-181. A significant portion of our properties are located in Adams County, although some of the properties are located within the limits of the City of Brighton. It is not yet clear whether municipalities like Brighton will follow Adams County and consider a moratorium.

●

On April 2, 2019, the Secured Lenders delivered their formal Notice of Default under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility. After the application of proceeds from the sale of our non-operated assets of February 27, 2019, the remaining outstanding principal balance of the Secured Credit Facility is $14.3 million.

●

On various dates in 2019, we received Notices of Alleged Violations (“NOAVs”) from the COGCC pertaining to five wells that we operate. We have settled matters related to two of the wells and have accrued $0.6 million as of March 31, 2019 related to the remaining outstanding alleged violations. We are working with the COGCC to settle these remaining matters. We have no way to definitively ascertain what the outcome of the remaining NOAVs will be.

Going Concern

As described in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This qualification is based on, among other things, debt obligations currently in default, accumulated losses and negative working capital.

Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on the success of our fundraising, future drilling, exploration and development efforts, and our ability to generate revenue sufficient to cover our costs and expenses. In the event we are unable to obtain adequate funding from the sale of debt or equity securities and our ongoing drilling efforts, both operated and non-operated, we may have to delay, reduce or eliminate certain of our planned operations, reduce overall overhead expense, or divest assets. This, in turn, may have an adverse effect on our ability to realize the value of our assets.

Overview: For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we realized a net loss of $5.6 million or $0.20 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.5 million or $0.05 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Much of our net loss in the first quarter of 2019 resulted from non-cash charges, especially unamortized costs and expenses related to the Secured Credit Facility, as discussed more fully below.Our production during the first quarter of 2019 averaged 1,414 BOE/D compared to 680 BOE/D in the first quarter of 2018. The significant increase in production year over year is attributable to the Shook pad horizontal wells coming on line in the second half of 2018, partially offset by the sale of our non-operated assets on February 27, 2019.

26

Revenues: Crude oil, natural gas and NGL sales revenue was $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Revenue increases in the first quarter of 2019 compared to 2018 resulted from increased sales volumes and a more liquids-weighted sales mix, somewhat offset by decreasing oil prices, as described in “Volumes and Prices” below. We anticipate revenue from the Shook wells to increase further in the second quarter of 2019, as certain cold-weather take-away problems with the pipeline are resolved. The anticipated revenue increase from the Shook wells will be partially offset by the loss of revenue from the non-operated assets that we sold.

Volumes and Prices: Crude oil, natural gas and NGL sales volumes were 127,313 BOE for the three months ended March 31, 2019, up from 61,200 BOE for the first quarter of 2018. The significant increase in production in the 2019 quarter is due to our operated Shook pad coming online in the third quarter of 2018 coupled with an increase in the number of non-operated wells in which we had ownership interest for part of the quarter. As described elsewhere herein, we sold our interests in our non-operated horizontal assets on February 27, 2019. Production from the wells we sold totaled 37,117 BOE from January 1, 2019 to February 26, 2019, and generated revenue of $1.1 million.

The increase in average sales price per BOE in the first quarter of 2019 relates to a change in the sales mix of volumes sold and realized prices; crude oil increased to 66% of our sales volume in 2019 as compared to 39% of our sales volume in 2018 while the average oil price decreased from $59.34 in 2018 to $50.07 per Bbl in 2019; Natural gas decreased to 26% of our sales volumes in 2019 as compared to 42% in 2018 while prices increased to $3.12 per Mcf from $2.55 per Mcf; and NGL decreased to 8% of our sales volumes in 2019 from 19% in 2018 while prices decreased to $16.17 per Bbl from $21.88 per Bbl. Overall, the average sales price we received per BOE increased from $33.81 in the first quarter of 2018 to $39.05 in the first quarter of 2019.

Operating Expense: Operating expense for the three-month periods is shown below:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2019	2018
Lifting costs	$473,427	$299,694
Production taxes	413,625	230,919
Transportation and other costs	489,290	6,115
Total	$1,376,342	$536,728

Total operating expense increased $0.9 million to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Much of the increase was due to increased severance and ad-valorem taxes on the increased value of oil and gas produced during the 2019 period and to increased lifting, transportation and other costs on operated wells which commenced production in the third quarter of 2018.

27

Lease operating costs per BOE were $3.71 and $4.90 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As a percent of crude oil, natural gas and NGL sales revenue, routine LOE was 9.51% and 14.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Overall operating costs (crude oil and natural gas operating costs, including production taxes) per BOE was $10.81 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $8.77 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in lease operating and overall costs between comparable periods is primarily attributable to the costs of our operated properties. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the pipeline linked to our operated Shook wells experienced take-away issues and consequently, the wells were periodically offline for two out of three months and the associated downtime costs could not be spread across additional volumes.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization expense: Depletion, depreciation, and amortization increased $0.5 million to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in expense was the result of increased production volumes related primarily to new operated horizontal wells that commenced production during the latter half of 2018.

Interest expense: During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recognized interest expense of $5.2 million compared to $1.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. Interest expense recognized during the 2019 period was comprised of interest expense recorded at the default interest rate of approximately 22% plus the accelerated accretion of debt discounts and debt issuance costs on our Secured Credit Facility. It includes an acceleration of all the unamortized costs and discounts relating to the Secured Credit Facility, as the Senior Secured Lender has declared that the Facility in default and all outstanding amounts are due and payable. We determined that the contractual amortization period through February 2020 was no longer appropriate and we recorded an accelerated expense of $4.8 million during the period.

Change in fair value – derivative liabilities: During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recognized other income of $0.1 million related to the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities embedded in the Secured Credit Facility. During the comparable period in 2018, we recognized other income of $0.1 million related to changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities.

General and administrative expenses: We recognized general and administrative expenses of $2.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $0.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $1.5 million. Increases in general and administrative expense for the 2019 period include $0.6 million in costs accrued in connection with pending COGCC alleged violation notices, $0.1 million increases in accounting and audit fees, insurance expense and regulatory and compliance related expenses, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in salaries and a $0.1 million decrease in non-cash compensation. During the 2018 period, the reported expense was reduced by cost recovery billed to our working interest partners of approximately $0.7 million that is considered non-recurring one-time reimbursement of certain overhead charges.

28

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our liquidity continued to decrease during the first quarter of 2019. Our working capital deficit increased from $32.9 million at December 31, 2018 to $36.3 million at March 31, 2019. Both current assets and current liabilities decreased significantly from year end, but the current assets decreased more. We sold our interest in certain non-operated assets that were classified as current assets and the proceeds were used to pay down current liabilities. We had a cash balance of $2.3 million on March 31, 2019, which is expected to be used for working capital needs and other operational purposes. We continue to seek outside financing, an asset sale or other strategic alternatives.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we sold our interests in certain non-operated properties for net proceeds of $15.3 million. The net proceeds were remitted to the Secured Lenders and were applied to reduce amounts allegedly owed to them under the Secured Credit Facility.

The amount we invest in future development, drilling, and leasing activities depends on, among other factors, our fundraising efforts, potential opportunities, and our ability to negotiate with our current creditors. The most significant of our future capital requirements, in addition to repayment of debt and payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, include (i) costs to drill or participate in additional wells; (ii) costs to acquire additional acreage that we may identify in the Southern Core area or other areas; (iii) approximately $0.5 million per month for salaries and other corporate overhead; and (iv) legal and accounting fees associated with our status as a public company required to file reports with the SEC. We anticipate funding these projected capital requirements with proceeds from the sale of debt or equity, the success of which cannot be assured, the potential sale of additional assets and cash flow from operations.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities

Operating activities provided net cash of $1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. This was an improvement of $2.6 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, when our operating activities used $0.8 million of cash. Although our net loss for the 2019 period increased relative to the 2018 period, a majority of the increased loss represented material non-cash items, including DD&A, accretion of debt discounts and losses recorded in connection with the sale of non-operated properties.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $2.1 million compared to $1.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, representing an increase of cash used of $0.4 million. Cash expenditures during the 2019 period represent the payment of costs incurred to complete the development of our Shook assets.

29

Financing Activities

There were no cash flows from financing activity during the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we closed on the Secured Credit Facility which provided net cash proceeds of $11.2 million and provided the resources to repay $6.5 million in principal and $1.1 million in accrued interest from other financings.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no material off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, or obligations.

CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains or incorporates by reference “forward-looking statements,” as that term is used in federal securities laws, about our financial condition, results of operations, and business. These statements include, among others:

●

Statements about our anticipated operated and non-operated drilling programs, the cost and feasibility related to such, receipt of permits or other regulatory approvals, and plans for the development of our properties;

●

Statements concerning the benefits or outcomes that we expect from our business activities and certain transactions that we contemplate or have completed, such as the receipt of proceeds, increased revenues, decreased expenses and expenditures; and

●

Other statements of expectations, beliefs, future plans and strategies, anticipated developments and other matters that are not historical facts.

The words “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “will,” “would” and similar words or expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements and information are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, risks and contingencies, and there can be no assurance that such statements and information will prove to be accurate. Therefore, actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements and information. We caution you not to put undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Further, the information contained in this document or incorporated herein by reference is a statement of our present intention and is based on present facts and assumptions, and may change at any time and without notice, based on changes in such facts or assumptions. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

The important factors that could affect the accuracy of forward-looking statements and prevent us from achieving our stated goals and objectives include, but are not limited to:

●

Changes in the general economy affecting the disposable income of the public;

●

Changes in environmental law, including federal, state and local legislation;

30

●

Changes in drilling requirements imposed by state or local laws or regulations;

●

Terrorist activities within and outside the United States;

●

Technological changes in the crude oil and natural gas industry;

●

Acts and omissions of third parties over which we have no control;

●

Changes in operating, exploration, development or overhead costs;

●

Inflation and the costs of goods or services used in our operation;

●

Access and availability of materials, equipment, supplies, labor and supervision, power, and water;

●

Interpretation of drill hole results and the uncertainty of reserve estimates;

●

The availability of sufficient pipeline and other transportation facilities to carry our production and the impact of these facilities on price;

●

The level of demand for the production of crude oil and natural gas;

●

Changes in our business strategy;

●

Potential failure to achieve production from drilling projects; and

●

Capital expenditures.

Those factors discussed above, elsewhere in this report, and in other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission are difficult to predict and expressly qualify all subsequent oral and written forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed may not occur. We do not have any intention or obligation to update forward-looking statements included in this report after the date of this report, except as required by law.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

(a) 

We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of March 31, 2019, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 Legal Proceedings

Foreclosure of Oil and Gas Liens

On May 2, 2019, 1888 Industrial Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“1888”), filed a civil action in the District Court of Adams County, Colorado against us and other defendants seeking a declaratory judgment and other relief in connection with an oil and gas lien filed against our interest in the Shook wells and associated oil and gas leases. The complaint claims that 1888 provided labor, machinery and other items of value to us and our working interest partners in the Shook wells in connection with the drilling and/or completion of those wells. Also named as defendants are our working interest partners, Providence Energy Operators, LLC and PEO Colorado, LLC, as well as other parties allegedly holding an interest in the wells and leases, including Providence Wattenberg, LP, as administrative agent under the Secured Credit Facility, Susan A. Orecchio as the public trustee of Adams County, and Liberty Oilfield Services, LLC and Select Energy Services, LLC, other alleged lien holders.

The Plaintiff seeks a judgment against us in an unspecified amount for breach of contract, quantum meruit and foreclosure of the lien, in addition to a declaratory judgment that the lien is valid and superior to the interest of the other defendants. The lien filed against our interest in the Shook wells and related leasehold and other property interests claims an amount due of $1,312,104 and certain other work allegedly provided by Plaintiff is valued at $50,357.

In another action filed in the District Court of Adams County on May 7, 2019, Liberty Oilfield Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Liberty”), filed claims to foreclose its lien filed against our Shook wells and the associated leases. The complaint alleges that Liberty provided labor, machinery and other items of value to us in relation to the Shook wells and that we have failed or refused to pay for said labor, machinery and other items of value. The complaint seeks unspecified damages for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, promissory estoppel and foreclosure of the lien. The lien filed by Liberty claims amounts due of $6,480,860

Due to the fact that these complaints were only recently filed and received by us and we have not had the opportunity to discuss our legal options with counsel, we have not yet determined how we intend to respond to the complaint.

Public Trustee’s Foreclosure

On April 29, 2019, Providence Wattenberg, LP, as administrative agent and Lender, and 5NR Wattenberg, LLC, as Lender, caused to be recorded with the clerk and recorder for Adams County, Colorado a Notice of Election and Demand for foreclosure of the Deed of Trust granted by us to the Lenders to secure repayment of the Secured Credit Facility. The Deed of Trust names the Public Trustee of Adams County as trustee. The Notice received by us claims several events of default under the Secured Credit Agreement including the failure to comply with certain operating and capital expense budgets and allowing mechanic’s liens to be filed against and attach to the collateral securing the indebtedness under the Secured Credit Agreement and claims an outstanding principal amount of $14,738,813.

As with the lien foreclosure action discussed above, we have just received the Notice of Election and Demand and have not had time to meet with or discuss our legal options with counsel.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There are many risks inherent in our business. Factors that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results or liquidity, and the trading price of our common stock are described under Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 4, 2019. There have been no material changes regarding risk factors since that date.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

In management’s opinion, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018, which has been derived from the audited financial statements, and the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Changes in Shareholders’ (Deficit), and Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, contained herein, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows on a basis consistent with that of the Company’s prior audited consolidated financial statements. However, the results of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Unless otherwise noted, there have been no material changes to the footnotes in the financial statements from the audited financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and balances of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CFW Resources, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company. The Company’s undivided interests in joint operating ventures are proportionately consolidated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids are the most significant of the Company’s estimates. All reserve data used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are based on estimates. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved, probable and possible reserves. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. As a result, reserve estimates may be different from the quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that are ultimately recovered.

Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company excluded potentially dilutive securities as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition

Oil sales

Under the Company’s oil sales contracts, the Company sells oil production at the point of delivery and collects an agreed upon index price, net of pricing differentials. The Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the point of delivery at the net price received. Payment is generally received from the customer in the month following delivery.

Natural gas and natural gas liquids

Under the Company’s natural gas sales processing contracts, the Company delivers commingled natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs) to a midstream processing entity. The midstream processing entity gathers and processes the various hydrocarbons and remits proceeds to the Company for the resulting sale. Under these processing agreements, the Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the point of delivery. Payment is generally received from the customer one to two months following delivery. Revenue is recognized net of gathering and processing fees.

Disaggregation of Revenue. The following table presents revenues disaggregated by product:

Operating revenues	2019		2018
Crude oil sales	$	4,178,946	$	1,425,233
Natural gas sales		617,138		394,411
NGL sales		175,446		249,288
Total Operating Revenues	$	4,971,530	$	2,068,932

Related Party Transactions

The Company engages in a number of transactions with Providence Energy Operators, LLC (“PEO”) and its affiliates. PEO is the beneficial owner of 11.6% of our outstanding common stock. We have a participation agreement that grants PEO the option to acquire up to a 50% interest and participate in any oil and gas development on acreage we obtain within an area of mutual interest (AMI) near our Southern Core area. To date, PEO has exercised its option under the participation agreement or otherwise participated or agreed to participate in all acreage acquisitions and drilling operations. As discussed elsewhere in this report, an affiliate of PEO is a major participant in our principal lender group through the Secured Credit Facility. The Board of Directors is required to approve all significant related party transactions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), followed by other related ASUs that provided targeted improvements and additional practical expedient options (collectively “ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease payment liabilities on the balance sheet for leases representing the Company’s right to use the underlying assets over the lease term. Each lease that is recognized on the balance sheet will be classified as either finance or operating, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statements of operations and presentation within the statements of cash flows.

The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method. The Company elected as part of its adoption to also use the optional transition methodology whereby previously reported periods continue to be reported in accordance with historical accounting guidance for leases that were in effect for those prior periods. Policy elections and practical expedients that the Company has implemented as part of adopting ASC 842 include (a) excluding from the balance sheet leases with terms that are less than or equal to one year, (b) for all existing asset classes that contain both lease and non-lease components, combining these components together and accounting for them as a single lease component, (c) the package of practical expedients, which among other things, allows the Company to avoid reassessing contracts that commenced prior to adoption that were properly evaluated under legacy GAAP, and (d) excluding land easements, which were not accounted for under the previous leasing guidance, that existed or expired before adoption of ASC 842. The scope of ASC 842 does not apply to leases used in the exploration or use of minerals, oil, and natural gas.

The Company's adoption of ASC 842 resulted in an increase in other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and other liabilities line items on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a result of the additional ROU assets and related lease liabilities. Upon adoption on January 1, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $0.2 million in ROU assets and liabilities for its operating leases. There was no cumulative effect to accumulated deficit upon the adoption of this guidance. See Note 12 for the new disclosures required by ASC 842.

GOING CONCERN

GOING CONCERN

In the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, the auditor included an explanatory paragraph concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Pursuant to Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” the Company has assessed its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of the issuance of these financial statements. Substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity may be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year from the financial statement issuance date.

The uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is based on its substantial near-term liabilities, continuing net losses and negative working capital, among other things which existed as of March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2019, the Company had a cash balance of approximately $2.3 million, other current assets of approximately $7.4 million and current liabilities of $46 million, resulting in negative working capital of $36.3 million. The Company had a net loss, including non-cash charges, of $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2019 the Company was in default on the outstanding principal balances of $9.4 million under both issues of convertible notes. The Company is also in default under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility (Note 6) and as a result, $14.3 million of outstanding principal is due. Some accounts payable obligations to vendors are past the due date and some of those vendors have filed liens or indicated an intent to file liens on certain of the Company’s assets and/or commenced legal action to foreclose those liens. The Company has been unable to access the debt or equity markets to obtain any additional funding during 2019.

Management has evaluated these conditions and determined that increased revenues from the Company’s operated properties may allow the Company to meet its obligations. However, to continue to execute its business plan, and meet its debt obligations, additional working capital will be required. As part of the analysis, the Company considered selective participation in certain operated drilling programs based on availability of working capital and the timing of production-related cash flows. There is uncertainty that management’s plans, if executed, will allow the Company to meet all of its obligations.

As a result, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the realization of the carrying value of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value for financial assets and liabilities that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

● Level 1: Quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

● Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability;

● Level 3: Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash or valuation models.

The financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

As disclosed in Note 6, the Secured Credit Facility contained embedded elements that required identification and quantification of fair value. The estimated fair values as of February 1, 2018, the closing date of the facility, are presented in Note 6. As of March 31, 2019, the estimated fair values are presented in the following table:

	March 31, 2019
Registration rights penalty derivative liability	$	93,024
Share purchase option derivative liability		72,064
Total	$	165,088

The following table presents a roll-forward of the fair value of the derivative liabilities associated with the Company’s Secured Credit Facility, categorized as Level 3:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2019			Year Ended December 31, 2018
Beginning balance	$	241,800		$	—
Additions		—			1,670,017

Included in operations		(76,712	)		(1,428,217	)
Included in other comprehensive income		—			—
Ending Balance	$	165,088		$	241,800

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and credit facility borrowings. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s Secured Credit Facility approximates fair value as it bears interest at variable rates over the term of the loan.

Oil and Gas Property [Abstract]

CRUDE OIL AND NATURAL GAS PROPERTIES

The Company’s oil and gas properties are located entirely within the State of Colorado in the United States. The net capitalized costs related to the Company’s crude oil and natural gas activities were as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,
	2019			2018
Proved oil and gas properties	$	41,975,719		$	41,017,944
Unproved oil and gas properties (1)		1,530,114			2,055,752
Wells in progress (2)		222,587			1,194,114
Total capitalized costs		43,728,420			44,267,810
Accumulated DDA and impairment (3)		(15,524,353	)		(14,395,458	)
Net capitalized costs	$	28,204,067		$	29,872,352

(1) Unproved oil and gas properties represent unevaluated costs the Company excludes from the amortization base until proved reserves are established or impairment is determined.

(2) Costs from wells in progress are excluded from the amortization base until production commences.

(3) Includes the accumulated expenses for depletion, depreciation, and amortization (DDA) plus accumulated expenses for impairment.

On February 27, 2019, the Company completed the sale of certain assets. Based upon the preliminary settlement statement, the $16.5 million sale price for the assets yielded net proceeds of approximately $15.3 million, after adjustments for title defects, inventory, reconciliation of other amounts payable and receivable from the buyer, and transaction costs of the sale. Final settlement of the transaction is scheduled for May 28, 2019. All of the net proceeds from the sale were remitted to the Secured Lenders as required by the Secured Lenders, and have been applied to reduce amounts allegedly owed by the Company under the Secured Credit Facility. Additional information about the use of proceeds from the sale can be found in Note 6.

The assets were classified as Held for Sale as of December 31, 2018 and included as current assets in the financial statements. During the period from January 1, 2019 to February 27, 2019, the assets sold generated revenues of $1.1 million and operating expenses of $0.3 million, resulting in net operating income for those properties of $0.8 million. The terms of the transaction provide that 2019 revenues and expenses accrue to the benefit of the buyer, and accordingly, the Company recorded an adjustment of $0.8 million to the purchase price and the corresponding loss on sale of properties during the period ended March 31, 2019.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

DEBT

10% Convertible Notes

On January 30, 2017, the Company completed the private placement of units consisting of convertible promissory notes (“Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate face value of $10.0 million and common stock purchase warrants. The Convertible Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per year and were due and payable on December 31, 2018. At the option of the holders of the Convertible Notes, the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share.

As of December 31, 2018, the 10% Convertible Notes had an outstanding principal balance of $4.6 million. The 10% Convertible Notes were not paid on their due date of December 31, 2018. The Company’s failure to retire the 10% Convertible Notes was an event of default. The Company has continued to accrue and pay interest at the rate of 10%, in the approximate amount of $0.1 million each calendar quarter. As of March 31, 2019, the principal balance of $4.6 million remains outstanding, and the 10% Convertible Notes remain in default.

Series B Convertible Notes

In September and October 2017, the Company sold Series B Convertible Notes in the principal amount of $4.7 million. The Series B Convertible Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 15% per year, and were due and payable on December 31, 2018. At the option of the holders, the principal amount of the Series B Convertible Notes and any accrued but unpaid interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share.

As of December 31, 2018, the Series B Convertible Notes had an outstanding principal balance of $4.7 million. The Series B Convertible Notes were not paid on their due date of December 31, 2018. The Company’s failure to retire the Series B Convertible Notes was an event of default. The Company has continued to accrue and pay interest at the rate of 15%, in the approximate amount of $0.2 million each calendar quarter. As of March 31, 2019, the principal balance of $4.7 million remains outstanding, and the Series B Convertible Notes remain in default.

The Company has commenced negotiations with holders of the 10% Convertible Notes and the Series B Convertible Notes regarding resolution of the default conditions. At this time, it is not possible to predict the eventual outcome of those negotiations.

Secured Credit Facility

On February 1, 2018, the Company closed on a $25.0 million Secured Credit Facility with Providence Wattenberg, LP and 5NR Wattenberg, LLC (“Secured Lenders”). The Secured Credit Facility incorporated certain provisions of a Letter Agreement entered into by the Company on December 21, 2017 under which the Company borrowed $5.0 million from the Secured Lenders. The closing on February 1, 2018 represented additional borrowings of $20.0 million.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company was in default under certain provisions of the Secured Credit Facility. The default conditions included the non-payment of the 10% Convertible Notes and the Series B Convertible Notes on December 31, 2018, and non-payment of the underwriting fee payable to PEO on February 1, 2019. Other defaults related to non-payment of certain accounts payable and accrued liabilities within a 90-day allowable time period, liens filed in Adams County, Colorado against certain of the Company’s assets, among other conditions.

On March 26, 2019, the Secured Lenders required that the Company pay to them the net proceeds from the Company’s sale of non-operated assets and subsequently applied the net proceeds of $15.3 from sale to the outstanding accrued interest, penalties and principal, resulting in a remaining principal balance of $14.3 million.

On April 2, 2019, the Secured Lenders delivered their formal Notice of Default under the terms of the Secured Credit Facility to confirm their previous communications.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2019

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

In management’s opinion, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018, which has been derived from the audited financial statements, and the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Changes in Shareholders’ (Deficit), and Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, contained herein, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows on a basis consistent with that of the Company’s prior audited consolidated financial statements. However, the results of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Unless otherwise noted, there have been no material changes to the footnotes in the financial statements from the audited financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and balances of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CFW Resources, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company. The Company’s undivided interests in joint operating ventures are proportionately consolidated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids are the most significant of the Company’s estimates. All reserve data used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are based on estimates. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved, probable and possible reserves. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. As a result, reserve estimates may be different from the quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that are ultimately recovered.

Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company excluded potentially dilutive securities as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition

Oil sales

Under the Company’s oil sales contracts, the Company sells oil production at the point of delivery and collects an agreed upon index price, net of pricing differentials. The Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the point of delivery at the net price received. Payment is generally received from the customer in the month following delivery.

Natural gas and natural gas liquids

Under the Company’s natural gas sales processing contracts, the Company delivers commingled natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs) to a midstream processing entity. The midstream processing entity gathers and processes the various hydrocarbons and remits proceeds to the Company for the resulting sale. Under these processing agreements, the Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the point of delivery. Payment is generally received from the customer one to two months following delivery. Revenue is recognized net of gathering and processing fees.

Disaggregation of Revenue. The following table presents revenues disaggregated by product:

Operating revenues	2019		2018
Crude oil sales	$	4,178,946	$	1,425,233
Natural gas sales		617,138		394,411
NGL sales		175,446		249,288
Total Operating Revenues	$	4,971,530	$	2,068,932

Related Party Transactions

The Company engages in a number of transactions with Providence Energy Operators, LLC (“PEO”) and its affiliates. PEO is the beneficial owner of 11.6% of our outstanding common stock. We have a participation agreement that grants PEO the option to acquire up to a 50% interest and participate in any oil and gas development on acreage we obtain within an area of mutual interest (AMI) near our Southern Core area. To date, PEO has exercised its option under the participation agreement or otherwise participated or agreed to participate in all acreage acquisitions and drilling operations. As discussed elsewhere in this report, an affiliate of PEO is a major participant in our principal lender group through the Secured Credit Facility. The Board of Directors is required to approve all significant related party transactions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), followed by other related ASUs that provided targeted improvements and additional practical expedient options (collectively “ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease payment liabilities on the balance sheet for leases representing the Company’s right to use the underlying assets over the lease term. Each lease that is recognized on the balance sheet will be classified as either finance or operating, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statements of operations and presentation within the statements of cash flows.

The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method. The Company elected as part of its adoption to also use the optional transition methodology whereby previously reported periods continue to be reported in accordance with historical accounting guidance for leases that were in effect for those prior periods. Policy elections and practical expedients that the Company has implemented as part of adopting ASC 842 include (a) excluding from the balance sheet leases with terms that are less than or equal to one year, (b) for all existing asset classes that contain both lease and non-lease components, combining these components together and accounting for them as a single lease component, (c) the package of practical expedients, which among other things, allows the Company to avoid reassessing contracts that commenced prior to adoption that were properly evaluated under legacy GAAP, and (d) excluding land easements, which were not accounted for under the previous leasing guidance, that existed or expired before adoption of ASC 842. The scope of ASC 842 does not apply to leases used in the exploration or use of minerals, oil, and natural gas.

The Company's adoption of ASC 842 resulted in an increase in other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and other liabilities line items on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a result of the additional ROU assets and related lease liabilities. Upon adoption on January 1, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $0.2 million in ROU assets and liabilities for its operating leases. There was no cumulative effect to accumulated deficit upon the adoption of this guidance. See Note 12 for the new disclosures required by ASC 842.
