(a)At the end of each quarter, the Company assessed the carrying value of its producing properties for impairment if indicators of impairment existed at such time. This assessment utilized estimates of future cash flows or fair value (selling price) less cost to sell if the property is held for sale. Significant judgments and assumptions in these assessments include estimates of future natural gas, oil and NGL prices using a forward NYMEX curve adjusted for projected inflation, locational basis differentials, drilling plans, expected capital costs and an applicable discount rate

commensurate with risk of the underlying cash flow estimates. These assessments identified certain properties with carrying value in excess of their calculated fair values. This table excludes impairments on properties that were written off in the amount of $14,565, $12,596 and $588,721 for the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
