FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this report constitute forward-looking statements. The use of any of the words ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘continue,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘project,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ and similar expressions and statements relating to matters that are not historical facts constitute ‘‘forward looking information’’ within the meaning of applicable securities laws. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated. Such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and the forward-looking statements included in this report should not be unduly relied upon. These statements are made only as of the date of this report. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future — including statements relating to natural gas and oil production rates, commodity prices for crude oil or natural gas, supply and demand for natural gas and oil; the estimated quantity of natural gas and oil reserves, including reserve life; future development and production costs, and statements expressing general views about future operating results — are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should consider carefully the statements under Item 1A. Risk Factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 is available on our website at www.epsilonenergyltd.com.

Epsilon Energy Ltd.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of Business

Epsilon Energy Ltd. (the “Company” or “Epsilon” or “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada on March 14, 2005, pursuant to the ABCA. Epsilon is a North American on-shore focused independent natural gas and oil company engaged in the acquisition, development, gathering and production of natural gas and oil reserves. On February 14, 2019, Epsilon’s registration statement on Form 10 was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and on February 19, 2019, we began trading in the United States on the NASDAQ Global Market under the trading symbol “EPSN.”

2.    Basis of Preparation

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the appropriate rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included. The interim financial information and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Epsilon Energy USA, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Epsilon Midstream, LLC, Dewey Energy GP, LLC, Dewey Energy Holdings, LLC, Epsilon Operating, LLC, and Altolisa Holdings, LLC. With regard to the gathering system, in which Epsilon owns an undivided interest in the asset, proportionate consolidation accounting is used. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates pertain to proved natural gas and oil reserves and related cash flow estimates used in impairment tests of natural gas and oil, and gathering system properties, asset retirement obligations, accrued natural gas and oil revenues and operating expenses, accrued gathering system revenues and operating expenses, as well as the valuation of commodity derivative instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company, an emerging growth company (“EGC”), has elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period provided for in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards which allows the Company to defer adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which removes the thresholds that companies apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, receivables, and held-to-maturity debt securities. Under current U.S. GAAP, companies generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The revised guidance removes all recognition thresholds and requires companies to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that the

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Company expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. Epsilon adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2023. There was no impact from the adoption of this ASU.

In 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which, for a limited period of time, adds ASC 848 to the Codification providing entities with certain practical expedients and exceptions from applying modification accounting if certain criteria are met. The amendments are designed to reduce operational challenges that entities will face in applying modification accounting to all contracts that will be revised due to reference rate reform. The guidance in ASC 848 was triggered by the pending discontinuation of certain benchmark reference rates and, in some cases, their replacement by new rates that are more observable or transaction-based and, therefore, less susceptible to manipulation, than certain interest-rate benchmark reference rates commonly used today, including the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). This process of reference rate reform will require entities to modify certain contracts by removing the discontinued rates and including new rates. Epsilon adopted ASU 2020-04 as of January 1, 2023. There was no impact from the adoption of this ASU.

In July 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-03 to amend various SEC paragraphs in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) to primarily reflect the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120. ASU No. 2023-03, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120 (“SAB 120”), SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock.” ASU 2023-03 amends the ASC for SEC updates pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120; SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting; and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 – General Revision of Regulation S-X; Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock. SAB 120 provides guidance on the measurement and disclosure of share-based awards shortly before announcing material nonpublic information. These updates were immediately effective and did not have any impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, to amend certain disclosure and presentation requirements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU required disclosure of incremental segment information, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and amounts for each reportable segment on an annual and interim basis. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects of the standard.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to disclose disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation, using both percentages and reporting currency amounts for specific standardized categories, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects of this standard.

3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Restricted cash consists of amounts deposited to back bonds or letters of credit for potential well liabilities. The Company presents restricted cash with cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets to the total of the amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of March 31, 2024 and December, 31 2023:

	March 31,		December 31,
	2024		2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,308,633	$	13,403,628
Restricted cash included in other assets		900,000		470,000
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in the statement of cash flows	$	3,208,633	$	13,873,628

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company was in the process of transitioning financial institutions for its Letters of Credit (“LOCs”) tied to various bonds associated with Pennsylvania and New York operatorship. The transition caused a temporary increase in restricted cash until the new LOCs are deemed effective and until the previous LOCs can be cancelled.  

4. Short Term Investments

Short term investments are highly liquid investments with original maturities between three and twelve months. The Company’s short term investments consist of US Treasury Bills. These investments are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale short term investments are reported at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

The following table summarizes the available-for-sale short term investments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

	March 31, 2024						December 31, 2023
	Amortized		Unrealized		Fair		Amortized		Unrealized		Fair
	Cost		Losses		Value		Cost		Gains		Value
U.S. Treasury Bills	$	12,241,187	$	(3,010)	$	12,238,177	$	18,773,508	$	1,598	$	18,775,106

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company sold securities with a carrying amount of $7,003,123 for total proceeds of $7,159,285. The realized gains on these sales were $156,162. An additional $3,635,000 of securities reached maturity with total realized gains of $135,034. The realized gains are included in other income in the consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Asset Acquisitions

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Epsilon acquired assets that included the following:

● a 25% working interest in three producing wells located in Ector County, Texas.

● a 25% working interest in 3,246 gross undeveloped acres in Ector County, Texas.

● total consideration paid of $14.8 million consisting of

(i) $12.1 million for the producing wells and

(ii) $2.7 million for the undeveloped acreage.

Management determined that substantially all the fair value of the assets acquired was concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets. Based on this determination, the acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. There were no acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Property Impairment

We perform a quantitative impairment test whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset group's carrying amount may not be recoverable, over proved properties using the published NYMEX forward prices, basis differentials, timing, methods and other assumptions consistent with historical periods. When indicators of impairment are present, GAAP requires that the Company first compare expected future undiscounted cash flows by asset group to their respective carrying values. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, a reduction of the carrying amount of the natural gas properties to their estimated fair values is required. Additionally, if an exploratory well is determined not to have found proved reserves, the costs incurred, net of any salvage value, should be charged to expense.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, no impairment was recorded.

6. Revolving Line of Credit

The Company closed a senior secured reserve based revolving credit facility on June 28, 2023, with Frost Bank as issuing bank and sole lender. The current commitment and borrowing base is $35 million, supported by the Company’s upstream assets in Pennsylvania and subject to semi-annual redeterminations with a maturity date of the earlier of June 28, 2027 or the date that the commitments are terminated. Interest will be charged at the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus a margin

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

of 3.25%. The facility is secured by the assets of the Company’s Epsilon Energy USA subsidiary (Borrower) and guaranteed by the Company and the other wholly owned subsidiaries. There are currently no borrowings under the facility.

Under the terms of the facility, the Company must adhere to the following financial covenants:

● Current ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 (current assets / current liabilities)

● Leverage ratio of less than 2.5 to 1.0 (total debt / income adjusted for interest, taxes and non-cash amounts)

Additionally, if the Leverage ratio is greater than 1.0 to 1.0, or the borrowing base utilization is greater than 50%, the Company is required to hedge 50% of the anticipated production from PDP reserves for a rolling 24 month period.

We were in compliance with the financial covenants of the agreement as of March 31, 2024.

8. Revenue Recognition

Revenues are comprised of sales of natural gas, oil and NGLs, along with the revenue generated from the Company’s ownership interest in the gas gathering system in the Auburn field in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

Overall, product sales revenue generally is recorded in the month when contractual delivery obligations are satisfied, which occurs when control is transferred to the Company’s customers at delivery points based on contractual terms and conditions. In addition, gathering and compression revenue generally is recorded in the month when contractual service obligations are satisfied, which occurs as control of those services is transferred to the Company’s customers. Gathering System revenues derived from Epsilon’s production, which have been eliminated from total gathering system revenues (“elimination entry”), amounted to $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The following table details revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Operating revenue
Natural gas	$	2,962,979	$	6,256,178
Natural gas liquids		372,984		196,295
Oil and condensate		2,715,082		517,108
Gathering and compression fees (1)		1,935,698		2,386,695
Total operating revenue	$	7,986,743	$	9,356,276

(1) Net of the elimination entry

Product Sales Revenue

The Company enters into contracts with third party purchasers to sell its natural gas, oil, NGLs and condensate production. Under these product sales arrangements, the sale of each unit of product represents a distinct performance obligation. Product sales revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the product transfers to the purchaser based on contractual terms which reflect prevailing commodity market prices. To the extent that marketing costs are incurred by the Company prior to the transfer of control of the product, those costs are included in lease operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Settlement statements for product sales, and the related cash consideration, are generally received from the purchaser within 30 days. As a result, the Company must estimate the amount of production delivered to the customer and the consideration that will ultimately be received for sale of the natural gas, oil, NGLs, or condensate. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within the receivables line item on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until payment is received.

Gas Gathering and Compression Revenue

The Company also provides natural gas gathering and compression services through its ownership interest in the gas gathering system in the Auburn field. For the provision of gas gathering and compression services, the Company collects its share of the gathering and compression fees per unit of gas serviced and recognizes gathering revenue over time using an output method based on units of gas gathered.

The settlement statement from the operator of the Auburn GGS is received two months after gathering and compression has occurred. As a result, the Company must estimate the amount of production that was gathered and compressed within the system. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within the receivables line item on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until payment is received.

9. Income Taxes

Income tax provisions for the three ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Current:
Foreign	$	66,268	$	—
Federal		—		960,508
State		10,775		378,522
Total current income tax expense		77,043		1,339,030
Deferred:
Federal		377,599		(17,278)
State		(400,592)		5,170
Total deferred tax expense		(22,993)		(12,108)
Income tax expense	$	54,050	$	1,326,922

The Company files federal income tax returns in the United States and Canada, and various returns in state and local jurisdictions.

The Company believes it has no uncertain income tax positions. The Company's tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ending December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2023. To the extent we utilize net operating losses generated in earlier years, such earlier years may also be subject to audit.

Starting in 2023, distributions of Epsilon Energy USA Inc. earnings to Epsilon Energy Ltd. incur a 5% U.S. dividend withholding tax, provided the Company is eligible for benefits under the U.S. / Canada income treaty.

Our effective tax rate will typically differ from the statutory federal rate primarily as a result of state income taxes and the valuation allowance against the Canadian net operating loss. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was lower than the statutory federal rate as a result of state income taxes partially offset by the valuation allowance against the Canadian net operating loss.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company enters into commitments for capital expenditures in advance of the expenditures being made. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had commitments of $3.6 million for capital expenditures.

Litigation

On March 10, 2021, Epsilon filed a complaint against Chesapeake Appalachia, LLC (“Chesapeake”) in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Scranton, Pennsylvania (“Middle District”). Epsilon claimed that Chesapeake has breached a settlement agreement and several operating agreements (“JOAs”) to which Epsilon and Chesapeake are parties. Epsilon asserted that Chesapeake failed to cooperate with Epsilon’s efforts to develop resources in the Auburn Development, located in North-Central Pennsylvania, as required under both the settlement agreement and JOAs.

Epsilon requested a preliminary injunction but was unsuccessful in obtaining that injunction.  Epsilon filed a motion to amend its original Complaint.  Chesapeake opposed.  The Court ruled in Epsilon’s favor and allowed Epsilon’s amendment. Chesapeake moved to dismiss the amended Complaint.  The Court granted the motion to dismiss on a narrow issue without prejudice to Epsilon’s right to file a new lawsuit based on new proposals made after the Court’s decision.  Epsilon filed a motion for reconsideration of that decision, but the court denied the motion for reconsideration on January 18, 2022.

Epsilon filed a notice of appeal on February 15, 2022 challenging the District Court's rulings in the case. Following the Third Circuit's ruling to remand the case back to District court, Epsilon has sought and was granted a dismissal of the case without prejudice in September 2023.

12.    Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the assumed issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive securities.

The net income used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Net income	$	1,506,896	$	3,529,827

In calculating the net income per share, basic and diluted, the following weighted-average shares were used:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024	2023
Basic weighted-average number of shares outstanding	21,994,207	22,990,893
Dilutive stock options	—	8,512
Unvested time-based restricted shares	—	21,415
Unvested performance-based restricted shares	—	6,864
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	21,994,207	23,027,684

The Company excluded the following shares from the diluted EPS because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024	2023
Anti-dilutive options	—	61,488
Anti-dilutive unvested time-based restricted shares	546,245	276,795

14. Commodity Risk Management Activities

Commodity Price Risks

Epsilon engages in price risk management activities from time to time. These activities are intended to manage Epsilon’s exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for natural gas and oil by securing derivative contracts for a portion of expected sales volumes.

Inherent in the Company’s fixed price contracts, are certain business risks, including market risk and credit risk. Market risk is the risk that the price of oil and natural gas will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by the Company’s counterparty to a contract. The Company does not currently require collateral from any of its counterparties nor do its counterparties currently require collateral from the Company.

The Company enters into certain commodity derivative instruments to mitigate commodity price risk associated with a portion of its future natural gas and oil production and related cash flows. The natural gas revenues and cash flows are affected by changes in commodity product prices, which are volatile and cannot be accurately predicted. The objective for holding these commodity derivatives is to protect the operating revenues and cash flows related to a portion of the future natural gas and oil sales from the risk of significant declines in commodity prices, which helps ensure the Company’s ability to fund the capital budget.

Epsilon has historically elected not to designate any of its financial commodity derivative contracts as accounting hedges and, accordingly, accounts for these financial commodity derivative contracts using the mark-to-market accounting method. Under this accounting method, changes in the fair value of outstanding financial instruments are recognized as gains or losses in the period of change and are recorded as gain (loss) on derivative contracts on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The related cash flow impact is reflected in cash flows from operating activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Epsilon recognized losses on commodity derivative contracts of $100,727. This amount included cash received on settlements on these contracts of $488,285. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, Epsilon recognized gains on commodity derivative contracts of $1,068,660. This amount included cash received on settlements on these contracts of $363,300.

Commodity Derivative Contracts

At March 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding natural gas NYMEX Henry Hub (“HH”) swaps totaling 1.84 Bcf, natural gas Tennessee Z4 basis swaps totaling 1.69 Bcf, and crude oil NYMEX WTI CMA swaps totaling 58 MBbls.

15. Asset Retirement Obligations

Asset retirement obligations are estimated by management based on Epsilon’s net ownership interest in all wells and the gathering system, estimated costs to reclaim and abandon such assets and the estimated timing of the costs to be incurred in future periods, and the forecast risk free cost of capital. Epsilon has estimated the value of its total asset retirement obligations to be $3.6 million as of March 31, 2024 ($3.5 million at December 31, 2023). Each year we review, and to the extent necessary, revise our asset retirement obligations estimates in accordance with recent activity and current service costs.

The following tables summarize the changes in asset retirement obligations for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended		Year ended
		March 31,		December 31,
	2024		2023
Balance beginning of period	$	3,502,952	$	2,780,237

Accretion		44,815		88,899
Balance end of period	$	3,562,486	$	3,502,952

16. Fair Value Measurements

The methodologies used to determine the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities at March 31, 2024 were the same as those used at December 31, 2023.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company’s revolving line of credit has a recorded value that approximates its fair value since its variable interest rate is tied to current market rates and the applicable margins represent market rates. The revolving line of credit is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company has investments in U.S. Treasury Bills, all of which mature over a period of 3 and 12 months and are classified as short term investments. The U.S. Treasury Bills are carried at fair value. The U.S. Treasury Bills are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Commodity derivative instruments consist of NYMEX HH swap and Tennessee Z4 basis swap contracts for natural gas, and NYMEX WTI CMA swap contracts for crude oil. The Company’s derivative contracts are valued based on a marked to market approach. These assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the contract, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace, and are therefore designated as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The Company utilizes its counterparties’ valuations to assess the reasonableness of its own valuations.

17. Current Expected Credit Loss

Under ASU 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, estimated losses on financial assets are provided through an allowance for credit losses. The majority of our financial assets are invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. We also have accounts receivable which are primarily from purchasers of oil and natural gas, counterparties to our financial instruments, and revenues earned for compression and gathering services. Our oil, gas, and natural gas liquids accounts receivables are generally collected within 30 days after the end of the month. Compression and gathering receivables are generally collected within 60 days after the end of the month. We assess collectability through various procedures, including review of our trade receivable balances by counterparty, assessing economic events and conditions, our historical experience with counterparties, the counterparty’s financial condition and the amount and age of past due accounts. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we determined that our allowance for credit loss was nil.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of trends and significant changes in or results of operations and the financial condition of Epsilon Energy Ltd. and its subsidiaries for the periods presented. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto presented in this report, including the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 and for the nine months then ended together with accompanying notes, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs, and expected performance. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward- looking statements due to a number of factors. See “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

Epsilon Energy Ltd. (the “Company”) is a North American onshore focused independent natural gas and oil company engaged in the acquisition, development, gathering and production of natural gas and oil reserves. Our areas of operations are the Marcellus shale section of the Appalachian basin in Pennsylvania, the Permian Basin in Texas and New Mexico, and the NW Anadarko basin in Oklahoma.

At March 31, 2024 we held leasehold rights to 16,442 net acres. We have natural gas production from our non-operated wells in Pennsylvania, and oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas production from our non-operated wells in Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma.

At December 31, 2023 our total estimated net proved reserves were 65,916 MMcf of natural gas, 383,174 Bbls of NGLs, and 341,286 Bbls of oil and condensate, excluding the impact of the February 2024 acquisition in the Permian Basin.

In Pennsylvania, the Company owns a 35% interest in the 52-mile Auburn Gas Gathering System (“Auburn GGS") which is operated by a subsidiary of Williams Partners, LP.

Our common shares trade on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol “EPSN.”

Business Strategy

We are committed to disciplined capital allocation which should include shareholder returns in the form of dividends and share buybacks. We plan to maintain a strong balance sheet and liquidity position to allow us to opportunistically invest in both our existing project areas and potential new projects.     

Historically, our investments have been focused in our position in the prolific Marcellus unconventional reservoir in Pennsylvania (“PA”). Our PA assets are supported by our 35% ownership in the Auburn GGS and we have a substantial remaining drillable location inventory within our existing leaseholds.

More recently, our investments have been focused in Ector County, Texas in the Permian Basin.

On May 9, 2023, Epsilon acquired a 10% interest in two wellbores located in Eddy County, New Mexico from a private operator. The wells are currently on production. Total capital expenditure (net to Epsilon) was $2.2 million.

On May 16, 2023, Epsilon acquired a 25% working interest in 1,297 gross acres on the Central Basin Platform in Ector County, Texas from a private operator. The Company participated in the drilling and completion of 2 gross wells, both 10,000’ laterals, in the second and third quarter of 2023. The wells were put on production in October 2023. Total capital expenditures (net to Epsilon) to date are $9.6 million, including leasehold.

On June 20, 2023, Epsilon acquired a 25% working interest in 11,067 gross acres on the Central Basin Platform in Ector County, Texas from a private operator. Total capital expenditures (net to Epsilon) to date are $6.2 million.

25

On February 27, 2024, Epsilon acquired a 25% working interest in three producing wells and 3,246 gross undeveloped acres on the Central Basin Platform in Ector County, Texas from a private operator. The assets are immediately offset to the assets acquired in June 2023. The Company is currently participating in the drilling and completion of 1 gross well (a 13,200’ lateral) on the position.

We continue to evaluate new opportunities in numerous onshore North American natural gas and oil basins.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures-Adjusted EBITDA

Epsilon defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before (1) net interest expense, (2) taxes, (3) depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense, (4) impairments of natural gas and oil properties, (5) non-cash stock compensation expense, (6) gain or loss on sale of assets, (7) gain or loss on derivative contracts net of cash received or paid on settlement, and (8) net other income(expense). Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance as determined under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.

Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Epsilon has included Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures. It further provides investors a helpful measure for comparing operating performance on a normalized or recurring basis with the

26

performance of other companies, without giving effect to certain non-cash expenses and other items. This provides management, investors and analysts with comparative information for evaluating the Company in relation to other natural gas and oil companies providing corresponding non-U.S. GAAP financial measures or that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures for financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The table below sets forth a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, which is the most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed carefully.

Upstream natural gas revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased by $3.3 million, or 53%, over the same period in 2023. A decrease of $1.4 million was due to lower natural gas prices and a decrease of $1.9 million was due to lower sales volumes as a result of natural decline in the wells and operator elected well shut-ins due to poor natural gas pricing in Pennsylvania.

Upstream natural gas liquids revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased by $0.2 million, or 90% over the same period in 2023.  An increase of $0.3 million was due to additional sales volumes from the Permian Basin and a decrease of $0.1 million was due to lower sales volumes.

Upstream oil and condensate revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased by $2.2 million, or 425% over the same period in 2023.  An increase of $2.3 million was due to additional sales volumes from the Permian Basin offset by a decrease of $0.1 million due to lower prices.

28

Gathering system revenue decreased $0.5 million, or 19%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 over the same period in 2023. This was primarily the result of lower anchor shipper volumes due to well decline and operator elected will shut-ins offset partially by a 17% increase in the Auburn gathering rate. Revenues derived from transporting and compressing our production, which have been eliminated from gathering system revenues amounted to $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Operating Costs

The following table presents total cost and cost per unit of production (Mcfe), including ad valorem, severance, and production taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Lease operating costs (net of elimination)	$	1,768,462	$	1,404,279
Gathering system operating costs		552,570		651,341
	$	2,321,032	$	2,055,620
Upstream operating costs—Total $/Mcfe		0.89		0.57
Gathering system operating costs $/Mcf		0.16		0.18

Operating costs include the effects of elimination entries to remove the gathering fees paid to Epsilon’s ownership in the gathering system.

Upstream operating costs consist of lease operating expenses necessary to extract natural gas and oil, including gathering and treating the natural gas and oil to ready it for sale. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 these costs increased by $0.4 million, or 26%, over the same period in 2023. The increase is primarily due to the additional wells in the Permian Basin.

Gathering system operating costs consist primarily of rental payments for the natural gas fueled compression units and overhead fees due to the system’s operator. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, gathering system operating costs decreased by $0.1 million, or 15% from the same period in 2023. This decrease is primarily due to lower anchor shipper volumes gathered through the system.

Depletion, Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion (“DD&A”)

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Depletion, depreciation, amortization and accretion	$	2,380,426	$	1,773,006

Natural gas and oil and gathering system assets are depleted and depreciated using the units of production method aggregating properties on a field basis. For leasehold acquisition costs and the cost to acquire proved and unproved properties, the reserve base used to calculate depreciation and depletion is total proved reserves. For natural gas and oil development and gathering system costs, the reserve base used to calculate depletion and depreciation is proved developed reserves. A reserve report is prepared as of December 31, each year.

Depreciation expense includes amounts pertaining to our office furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements, computer hardware. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 3 to 7 years. Also included in depreciation expense is an amount pertaining to buildings owned by the Company. Depreciation for the buildings is calculated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30 years.

Accretion expense is related to the asset retirement costs.

DD&A expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased by $0.6 million, or 34% from the same period in 2023 as a result of the additional producing wells in the Permian Basin.

29

General and Administrative (“G&A”)

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
General and administrative	$	1,880,592	$	2,203,521

G&A expenses consist of general corporate expenses such as compensation, legal, accounting and professional fees, consulting services, travel and other related corporate costs such as restricted stock units granted.

G&A expenses decreased by $0.3 million, or 15%, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 from 2023. This was primarily due to a $0.05 million decrease in compensation after management transition expenses in 2023, a decrease of $0.1 million in legal fees, a decrease of $0.1 million decrease in accounting, tax, and other consulting fees, and a decrease of $0.05 million in office expenses.

Interest Income

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Interest income	$	266,272	$	490,762

Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 decreased by $0.2 million, or 46%, from the same period in 2023.  This is primarily due to a reduction in the amount of outstanding financial instruments in short term investments.

Interest Expense

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Interest expense	$	8,760	$	28,437

Interest expense relates to the fees paid on the revolving credit facility.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 decreased by $0.02 million, or 69%, as a result of a change in the fee structure under the new credit facility.

(Loss) Gain on Derivative Contracts

	Three months ended March 31,
	2024		2023
(Loss) gain on derivative contracts	$	(100,726)	$	1,068,660

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Epsilon had NYMEX HH Natural Gas futures swaps, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Zone 4 basis swaps, and crude oil NYMEX WTI CMA swaps derivative contracts for the purpose of hedging a portion of its physical natural gas and oil sales revenue. For the three ended March 31, 2023, Epsilon had NYMEX HH Natural Gas Futures swaps and Tennessee Gas Pipeline Zone 4 basis swap derivative contracts for the purpose of hedging a portion of its physical natural gas sales revenue.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we received net cash settlements of $488,285 and $363,300, respectively.

30

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, realized losses on derivative contracts increased by $1.2 million. This was primarily due to NYMEX WTI CMA future prices rising during the quarter resulting in a decrease in value of the crude oil swaps.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Cash Flow

The primary source of cash for Epsilon during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was funds generated from operations. The primary uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were the development of upstream properties, investment in U.S. Treasury Bills, the repurchase of shares of common stock, and the distribution of dividends.

At March 31, 2024, we had a working capital surplus of $12.9 million, a decrease of $20.3 million from the $33.2 million surplus at December 31, 2023. The Company anticipates its current cash balance, short term investments, available borrowings, and cash flows from operations to be sufficient to meet its cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to 2023

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, $3.7 million was provided by the Company’s operating activities, compared to $7.6 million during the same period in 2023, representing a 51% decrease.

The Company used $11.8 million and $30.9 million of cash for investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had net investments of $18.5 million on leasehold and well costs in Pennsylvania and Texas offset by net proceeds of $6.7 million in U.S. Treasury Bills. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company has investments of $30.1 million in U.S. Treasury Bills and $0.8 million in leasehold and well costs. This was spent primarily on leasehold and well costs in Pennsylvania.

The Company used $2.6 million and $2.8 million of cash for financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This was spent primarily on dividend payments and the repurchase of shares of common stock.

Credit Agreement

The Company closed a senior secured reserve based revolving credit facility on June 28, 2023 with Frost Bank as issuing bank and sole lender. The current commitment and borrowing base is $35 million, supported by the Company’s upstream assets in Pennsylvania and subject to semi-annual redeterminations with a maturity date of the earlier of June 28, 2027 or the date that the commitments are terminated. Interest will be charged at the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus a margin of 3.25%. The facility is secured by the assets of the Company’s Epsilon Energy USA subsidiary (Borrower) and guaranteed by the Company and the other wholly owned subsidiaries. There are currently no borrowings under the facility.

Under the terms of the facility, the Company must adhere to the following financial covenants:

● Current ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 (current assets / current liabilities)

● Leverage ratio of less than 2.5 to 1.0 (total debt / income adjusted for interest, taxes and non-cash amounts)

Additionally, if the Leverage ratio is greater than 1.0 to 1.0, or the borrowing base utilization is greater than 50%, the Company is required to hedge 50% of the anticipated production from PDP reserves for a rolling 24 month period.

Repurchase Transactions

On March 20, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program of up to 2,191,320 common shares, representing 10% of the outstanding common shares of Epsilon, for an aggregate purchase price of not more than US $12.0 million. The program is pursuant to a normal course issuer bid and will be conducted in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The program commenced on March 27, 2024 and will end on March 26, 2025, unless the maximum amount of common shares is purchased before then or Epsilon provides earlier notice of termination.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, no shares have been repurchased under the new program.

The previous share repurchase program commenced on March 27, 2023 and ended on March 26, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we repurchased 968,149 common shares at an average price of $5.08 per share (excluding commissions) under the previous plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased 248,700 shares at a price of $4.82 per share (excluding commissions) under the previous plan.

Derivative Transactions

The Company has entered into hedging arrangements to reduce the impact of commodity price volatility on operations. By reducing the price volatility from a portion of natural gas and crude oil production, the potential effects of changing prices on operating cash flows have been partially mitigated, but not eliminated. While mitigating the negative effects of falling commodity prices, these derivative contracts also limit the benefits we might otherwise receive from increases in commodity prices.

At March 31, 2024, Epsilon’s outstanding natural gas and crude oil commodity contracts consisted of the following:

		Weighted Average
	Volume	Price ($/MMbtu)		Fair Value of Asset

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our earnings and cash flow are significantly affected by changes in the market price of commodities. The prices of natural gas and oil can fluctuate widely and are influenced by numerous factors such as demand, production levels, world political and economic events, and the strength of the US dollar relative to other currencies. Should the price of natural gas and oil decline substantially, the value of our assets could fall dramatically, impacting our future operations and exploration and development activities, along with our gas gathering system revenues. In addition, our operations are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business, including interest rate and certain exposure as well as risks relating to changes in the general economic conditions in the United States.

Gathering System Revenue Risk

The Auburn Gas Gathering System lies within the Marcellus Basin with historically high levels of recoverable reserves and low cost of production. We believe that a short-term low commodity price environment will not significantly impact the reserves produced and thus the revenue of our gas gathering system.

Interest Rate Risk

Market risk is estimated as the change in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 100 basis point change in the interest rate on the outstanding balance under our credit agreement. The credit agreement allows us to fix the interest rate for all or a portion of the principal balance for a period up to three months. To the extent that the interest rate is fixed, interest rate changes affect the instrument’s fair market value but do not affect results of operations or cash flows. Conversely, for the portion of the credit agreement that has a floating interest rate, interest rate changes will not affect the fair market value but will affect future results of operations and cash flows.

At March 31, 2024 and 2023, the outstanding principal balance under the credit agreement was nil.

Derivative Contracts

The Company’s financial results and condition depend on the prices received for production. Natural gas, natural gas liquids, and crude oil prices have fluctuated widely and are determined by economic and political factors. Supply and demand factors, including weather, general economic conditions, the ability to transport to other regions, as well as conditions in other regions, impact prices. Epsilon has established a hedging strategy and may manage the risk associated with changes in commodity prices by entering into various derivative financial instrument agreements and physical contracts. Although these commodity price risk management activities could expose Epsilon to losses or gains, entering into these contracts helps to stabilize cash flows and support the Company’s capital spending program.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, 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 Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file 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 and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024 at the reasonable assurance level.

33

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that of limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, the risk.
