Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Organization and Nature of Operations

Denbury Resources Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a growing independent oil and natural gas company. We are the largest combined oil and natural gas producer in both Mississippi and Montana, own the largest reserves of CO₂ used for tertiary oil recovery east of the Mississippi River, and hold significant operating acreage in the Rocky Mountain and Gulf Coast regions. Our goal is to increase the value of our acquired properties through a combination of exploitation, drilling and proven engineering extraction practices, with the most significant emphasis relating to CO₂ tertiary recovery operations.

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Denbury Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the "Form 10-K"). Unless indicated otherwise or the context requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Company,” or “Denbury,” refer to Denbury Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end, and the results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2013, our consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and our consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on our reported net income, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, total liabilities or stockholders' equity.

Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated in the same manner, but includes the impact of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), nonvested restricted stock and nonvested performance-based equity awards. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, there were no adjustments to net income for purposes of calculating basic and diluted net income per common share.

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding used in the basic and diluted net income per common share calculations for the periods indicated:



	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
In thousands	2013	2012	2013	2012
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding	368,850	387,159	369,122	386,764
Potentially dilutive securities:
Restricted stock, stock options, SARs and performance-based equity awards	3,119	3,543	3,295	4,059
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding	371,969	390,702	372,417	390,823

Basic weighted average common shares excludes shares of nonvested restricted stock. As these restricted shares vest, they will be included in the shares outstanding used to calculate basic net income per common share (although all restricted stock is issued and outstanding upon grant). For purposes of calculating diluted weighted average common shares, the nonvested restricted stock is included in the computation using the treasury stock method, with the deemed proceeds equal to the average unrecognized compensation during the period, adjusted for any estimated future tax consequences recognized directly in equity. Stock options and SARs of 3.7 million shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and 3.9 million and 3.5 million shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share as their effect would have been antidilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Balance Sheet Offsetting. In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-11, Disclosure about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“ASU 2011-11”). ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities ("ASU 2013-01"). The update clarifies that the scope of ASU 2011-11 applies to derivatives accounted for in accordance with the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification ("FASC"), including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 became effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013 and have been applied retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 did not affect our consolidated financial statements, but required additional disclosures in the notes thereto.
