Amendment Description | On March 15, 2024, VAALCO Energy, Inc. (“VAALCO”) filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Original Form 10-K”). The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 to the Original Form 10-K is to amend and restate Part II, Item 9A, which contained an inadvertent typographical error. The attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting of KPMG LLP has been amended to reference the correct date of the report of the independent registered accounting firm on the consolidated financial statements of VAALCO included in the Original Form 10-K. No other items in the Original Form 10-K are being amended and this Amendment does not reflect any events occurring after the filing of the Original Form 10-K. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), we are filing as exhibits to this Amendment new certifications by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) or 15d-14(a) of the Exchange Act; however, paragraph 3 of the certifications has been omitted because this Amendment does not include financial statements. We are not including certifications under Section 1350 of Chapter 63 of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. 1350) (Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) because this Amendment does not include financial statements. | ||
