Item 7.01. Regulation FD
Disclosure.
On December 12, 2017, Yuma Energy, Inc. (the
“Company”) posted to its website a company
presentation (the “Presentation Materials”) that
management intends to use from time to time about the
Company’s operations and performance. The Company
may use the Presentation Materials, possibly with modifications, in
presentations to current and potential investors, lenders,
creditors, vendors, customers and others with an interest in the
Company and its business.
The information contained in the Presentation Materials is summary
information that should be considered in the context of the
Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
and other public announcements that the Company may make
by press release or otherwise from
time to time. The Presentation Materials speak as of the date of
this Current Report on Form 8-K. While the Company may elect to
update the Presentation Materials in the future or reflect events
and circumstances occurring or existing after the date of this
Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company specifically disclaims any
obligation to do so. The Presentation Materials are furnished as
Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are
incorporated herein by reference.
Some of the matters discussed in the Presentation Materials contain
forward-looking statements that involve uncertainties and risks
related to, intense competition in the oil and gas industry, the
Company’s dependence on its management, volatile oil and
natural gas prices, uncertainties associated with oil and natural
gas reserve estimates, operating and capital costs and the
Company’s need to replace production and acquire or develop
additional oil and natural gas reserves, among other matters.
Actual results could differ materially from those projected and the
Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on the
forward-looking statements contained in, or made in connection
with, the Presentation Materials.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K furnished
pursuant to Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be
deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liability
under that section, and they shall not be deemed incorporated by
reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set
forth by specific reference in such filing. By filing this Current
Report on Form 8-K and furnishing this information pursuant to
Item 7.01, the Company makes no admission as to the
materiality of any information in this Current Report on Form 8-K,
including Exhibit 99.1, that is required to be disclosed solely by
Regulation FD.
