Insights

Capital structure and credit analyst

Gulfport fully retires its Series A preferred, trading cash outlay for a cleaner equity structure.

Gulfport Energy Corporation redeemed 2,449 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on September 5, 2025 for an aggregate redemption value of about $31.3 million, including accrued and unpaid dividends. This removes the entire preferred layer, which typically carries a higher cost of capital and priority over common equity.

Between June 30, 2025 and the redemption date, 28,907 preferred shares were converted into roughly 2.1 million common shares. That sequence first increased the common share base, then eliminated the remaining preferred, consolidating claims into common equity. The move involves a cash outflow to fund the $31.3 million redemption, while potentially reducing ongoing dividend obligations tied to this preferred series.
