Mexco Energy (NYSE: MXC) doubles quarterly profit as oil prices rise and capex jumps
Mexco Energy Corporation reported stronger quarterly results for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Oil and gas operating revenues were $1.98 million, up 13% from $1.75 million a year earlier, as higher oil prices offset lower gas prices and volumes. Net income rose to $501,065 from $241,951, with diluted earnings per share increasing to $0.24 from $0.12.
Operating cash flow was $1.45 million, while investing outflows expanded to $2.73 million driven by additions to oil and gas properties, including royalty acquisitions totaling about $2.10 million during the quarter. Cash decreased to $1.29 million, but the company had $2.72 million of working capital and an undrawn $1.5 million credit facility maturing March 28, 2029, with no long-term debt outstanding.
The Board paid a regular annual dividend of $0.10 per share and maintains a share repurchase authorization with $546,784 remaining. Mexco continues to pursue a strategy focused on non-operated working interests and royalty acquisitions in multiple basins, with planned fiscal 2027 drilling and completion spending of approximately $1.8 million on horizontal wells.
Positive
- Net income more than doubled to $501,065 from $241,951 year over year, with diluted EPS rising to $0.24 from $0.12.
- Oil and gas sales increased 13% to $1.98 million, driven by a 51.9% rise in average oil price to $96.33 per bbl.
- Operating cash flow remained strong at $1.45 million, exceeding net income and supporting internally funded capital spending.
- Mexco ended the quarter with no debt outstanding and a fully available $1.5 million credit facility maturing in 2029.
- The company expanded its royalty portfolio with acquisitions totaling about $2.10 million in Q1 and reported 30% cash returns to date on a prior $2.23 million LLC investment.
Negative
- Net cash used in investing activities rose sharply to $2.73 million from $0.37 million, reducing cash to $1.29 million and lowering working capital by $1.27 million.
- Natural gas revenue declined 53.5% to $166,975, as average gas price fell 49.1% to $1.07 per mcf and volumes decreased 8.5%.
Filing Explained
The filing adds a $1 million Ohio capital commitment while reporting no new common shares issued in the quarter.
Form 10-Q is the company’s unaudited quarterly report; this filing covers the three months ended
The purchases add royalty interests to the company’s assets. The share-activity table shows zero common shares issued during the quarter, so these acquisitions do not create disclosed new-share dilution for existing common holders.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Nature of Operations
Mexco Energy Corporation (a Colorado corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Forman Energy Corporation (a New York corporation), Southwest Texas Disposal Corporation (a Texas corporation), and TBO Oil & Gas, LLC (a Texas limited liability company) (collectively, the “Company”) are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of crude oil, natural gas, condensate, and natural gas liquids (“NGLs”). Most of the Company’s oil and gas interests are centered in West Texas and Southeastern New Mexico; however, the Company owns producing properties and undeveloped acreage in fourteen states. All of Company’s oil and gas interests are operated by others.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mexco Energy Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions associated with the consolidated operations have been eliminated.
Estimates and Assumptions. In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management is required to make informed judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In addition, significant estimates are used in determining proved oil and gas reserves. Although management believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those estimates. The estimate of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves, which is used to compute depreciation, depletion, amortization, and impairment of oil and gas properties, is the most significant of the estimates and assumptions that affect these reported results.
Interim Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2026, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026 and for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026 was derived from the audited balance sheet filed in the Company’s 2026 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in more detail in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. However, the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K.
Oil and Gas Properties. The Company accounts for its oil and natural gas properties using the full cost method of accounting. Under this method, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas properties are capitalized and amortized using the unit-of-production method based on proved reserves. Costs directly related to exploration and development activities are capitalized, while production costs, general corporate overhead, and similar activities are expensed as incurred.
The carrying value of oil and natural gas properties includes asset retirement costs associated with the fair value of asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) when incurred.
Sales or other dispositions of oil and natural gas properties, whether or not currently being amortized, are generally accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless the disposition significantly alters the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves. This treatment includes transactions involving Term Assignments and Assignments, Bills of Sale and Conveyances.
| Page 7 |
Depletion of evaluated oil and natural gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production method, whereby capitalized costs plus estimated future development costs are amortized over total proved reserves.
In addition, capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes are not allowed to exceed an amount (the full cost ceiling) equal to the sum of: 1) the present value of estimated future net revenues discounted at ten percent computed in compliance with SEC guidelines; 2) plus the cost of properties not being amortized; 3) plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; 4) less income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the properties.
No impairments on oil and natural gas properties as a result of the ceiling test were recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Accounts
Receivable. Accounts receivable includes trade receivables from joint interest owners and oil and gas purchasers. Credit is extended
based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and is generally uncollateralized. The collectibility of receivables
is assessed, and an allowance is made for any credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is determined based on a number of factors,
including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the debtor’s current
ability to pay its obligation to the Company, the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company has not experienced
any significant credit losses. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025,
Investments. The Company utilizes the measurement alternative to account for investments when it does not possess the ability to exercise significant influence or control and the investment does not have a readily determinable fair value. Under this method, investments are initially recognized at cost and subsequently measured at cost, adjusted for any observable changes in the fair value of the investment. In addition, the Company reviews the carrying value of investments measured under the measurement alternative for impairment on a regular basis. If there is an indication of impairment, the Company assesses whether the carrying value of the investment exceeds its recoverable amount. Any impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Income from these investments is recognized as Income from investments in LLCs in the consolidated statements of operations.
Reclassifications. Certain amounts in prior periods’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations, retained earnings or net cash flows.
Segments.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), comprised of the Chairman of the Board and the President, evaluates
operating results and allocates capital resources on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, the Company has
Recently Issued Accounting Standards. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that the following standards are applicable:
In November 2024, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (“Subtopic 220-40”), which expands disclosures around a public entity’s costs and expenses of specific items (i.e. employee compensation and depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”)), requires the inclusion of amounts that are required to be disclosed under US GAAP in the same disclosure as other disaggregation requirements, requires qualitative descriptions of amounts remaining in expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and requires disclosure of total selling expenses, and in annual periods, the definition of selling expenses. The amendment does not change or remove existing disclosure requirements. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendment can be adopted prospectively or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard which is expected to only affect financial statement disclosures.
In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements. ASU 2025-12 is the latest in a series of updates that the FASB made to the existing GAAP literature to amend or supplement that literature related to minor change and corrections that have been identified and made amendments to thirty-three ASC topics. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosure.

3. Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) relate to the plugging of wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties. The ARO is included on the consolidated balance sheets, with the current portion being included in the accounts payable and accrued expenses.
The following table provides a rollforward of the AROs for the first three months of fiscal 2027:

which originally provided for a credit facility of $
No
principal payments are anticipated to be required through the maturity date of the credit facility,
Amounts borrowed under the Agreement are collateralized by the common stock of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and substantially all of the Company’s oil and gas properties.
In addition, this Agreement prohibits the Company from paying cash dividends on its common stock without prior written permission of WTNB. The Company obtained written permission from WTNB prior to declaring the regular annual dividend on June 4, 2026, as discussed in Note 10. The Agreement does not permit the Company to enter into hedge agreements covering crude oil and natural gas prices without prior WTNB approval.

6. Leases
The
Company leases approximately
The Company determines an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded as operating lease right-of-use asset, operating lease liability, current, and operating lease liability, long-term on the consolidated balance sheets.
Operating
lease right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent
its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement
date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate,
the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value
of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate used at adoption was

7. Income Taxes
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill (“OBBB”) was enacted, making significant changes to U.S. federal tax law. The Company has evaluated the impact of the OBBB and concluded that it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The income tax provision consists of the following for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:

Readers should review the consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as the risk factors, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. Historically, we have funded our operations, acquisitions, exploration, and development expenditures from cash generated by operating activities, bank borrowings, sales of non-core properties, and issuance of common stock. Our primary financial resource is our base of oil and gas reserves. We have pledged our producing oil and gas properties to secure our credit facility. We do not have any delivery commitments to provide a fixed and determinable quantity of our oil and gas under any existing contract or agreement.
Our long-term strategy is on increasing profit margins while concentrating on obtaining reserves with low-cost operations by acquiring and developing oil and gas properties with potential for long-lived production. We focus our efforts on the acquisition of royalty and working interests and non-operated properties in areas with significant development potential.
Cash Flows
Changes in the net funds provided by or (used in) each of our operating, investing, and financing activities are set forth in the table below:
| For the Three Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | Change | ||||||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 1,451,247 | $ | 1,363,277 | $ | 87,970 | ||||||

| Page 13 |
Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities. Cash flow from operating activities is primarily derived from the production of our crude oil and natural gas reserves and changes in the balances of non-cash accounts, receivables, payables, or other non-energy property asset account balances. Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,451,247 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $1,363,277 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $87,970. The increase was primarily attributable to a $259,114 increase in net income, a $60,634 increase in net non-cash adjustments, and a $26,135 increase in accounts payables and accrued expenses. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in our accounts receivable of $135,552 and income tax payable of $132,519. Variations in cash flow from operating activities may affect our level of exploration and development expenditures.
Our expenditures in operating activities consist primarily of drilling expenses, production expenses and engineering services. Our expenses also include employee compensation, accounting, insurance, and other general and administrative expenses incurred to support the normal and necessary business activities of a public company in the crude oil and natural gas production industry.
Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities. Cash flow from investing activities is derived from changes in oil and gas property balances. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used for additions to oil and gas properties, net of drilling refunds was $2,729,750 compared to net cash for additions to oil and gas properties net of proceeds from property sales of $365,910 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in capital expenditures reflects our strategy of acquiring royalty interests and participating in drilling opportunities that management believes will enhance long-term reserves and production.
Cash Flow Used in Financing Activities. Cash flow from financing activities is derived from changes in long-term debt and in equity account balances. Net cash flow used in our financing activities was $204,600 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 to pay the annual dividend.
Accordingly, net cash decreased $1,483,103, leaving cash and cash equivalents on hand of $1,292,873 as of June 30, 2026.
We had working capital of $2,721,592 as of June 30, 2026 compared to $3,995,456 at March 31, 2026, a decrease of $1,273,864 for the reasons set forth below.
Oil and Natural Gas Property Development
New Participations in Fiscal 2027. The Company currently plans to participate in the drilling and completion of 53 horizontal wells at an estimated cost of approximately $1,300,000 for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027. Forty-eight of these wells are in the Delaware Basin located in the western portion of the Permian Basin in Lea County, New Mexico. The remaining wells are in Reeves County, Texas.
In May 2026, Mexco expended approximately $400,000 to participate in the drilling and completion of five horizontal wells in the Wolfcamp A formation of the Delaware Basin in Reeves County, Texas. Mexco’s working interest in these wells is .8%.
Completion of Wells Drilled in Fiscal 2026. The Company also expects to expend approximately $500,000 for the completion of 20 horizontal wells in which the Company participated during fiscal 2026.
The Company expended approximately $100,000 for additional drilling and completion costs of five horizontal wells in the Wolfcamp B formation in the Spraberry trend area of the Midland Basin in Midland and Glasscock Counties, Texas that the Company participated in drilling during fiscal 2026. Mexco’s working interest in these wells is 1.9%.
Two horizontal wells in the Wolfcamp XY formation of the Delaware Basin in Eddy County, New Mexico in which the Company participated during fiscal 2026 were completed in April 2026 with initial average production rates of 607 barrels of oil, 1,295 barrels of water, and 2,170,000 cubic feet of gas per day, or 969 BOE per day. Mexco’s working interest in these wells is approximately 2.1%.
Subsequently, in July 2026, the Company expended approximately $70,000 to drill and complete three horizontal wells in the Bone Spring formation of the Delaware Basin in Lea County, New Mexico.
Investments. In October 2022, the Company made an approximately 2% equity investment commitment in a limited liability company amounting to $2,000,000, which was fully funded as of July 2025. The limited liability company is capitalized at approximately $100 million to acquire mineral interests in the Utica and Marcellus formations in the state of Ohio. In October 2025, the Company expended $200,000 to exercise its option to participate in a voluntary optional cash call to increase its capitalized investment. In December 2025, the Company expended an additional $27,429 to exercise its option to acquire its share of the non-consenting interests from the October cash call. As of June 30, 2026, this LLC has returned $668,364, or 30% of the total investment.

Subsequently, in July 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to make a capital commitment of $1,000,000 to another limited liability company formed to acquire non-cost bearing mineral and royalty interests in the Utica Shale play in the state of Ohio.
Acquisitions. In April 2026, the Company acquired royalty interests in 82 producing wells in Weld County, Colorado for an aggregate purchase price of $690,900. These acquisitions were effective May 1, 2026.
In April 2026, the Company acquired royalty interests in 62 producing wells in Atascosa, Howard, LaSalle, Martin, and Yoakum Counties, Texas, and additional royalty interests in 3 properties in which we already owned an interest in Howard County, Texas for an aggregate purchase price of $337,700. These acquisitions were effective May 1, 2026.
In June 2026, the Company acquired royalty interests in 32 producing wells in Adams and Larimer Counties, Colorado for an aggregate purchase price of $377,600. These acquisitions are effective July 1, 2026.
In June 2026, the Company acquired royalty interests in 30 producing wells in Karnes, McMullen, Panola, and Winkler Counties, Texas for an aggregate purchase price of $408,700. These acquisitions are effective July 1, 2026.
In June 2026, the Company acquired royalty interests in 9 producing wells and additional royalty interests in 8 properties in which we already owned an interest in Caddo and DeSoto Parishes, Louisiana for an aggregate purchase price of $266,200. These acquisitions are effective July 1, 2026.
In June 2026, the Company acquired royalty interests in 185 producing wells in Ashtabula County, Ohio for a purchase price of $14,100. These acquisitions are effective July 1, 2026.
All of our acquisitions were funded from existing cash resources.
Other Projects. We are participating in other projects and are reviewing projects in which we may participate. The cost of such projects would be funded, to the extent possible, from existing cash balances and cash flow from operations. The remainder may be funded through borrowings on the credit facility and, if appropriate, sales of non-core properties.
Pricing. Crude oil and natural gas prices remained volatile during the last year. The volatility of the energy markets makes it extremely difficult to predict future oil and natural gas price movements with any certainty. For example, in the last twelve months, the NYMEX West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) posted price for crude oil has ranged from a low of $51.25 per bbl in December 2025 to a high of $108.93 per bbl in April 2026. The Henry Hub Spot Market Price (“Henry Hub”) for natural gas has ranged from a low of $2.54 per MMBtu in April 2026 to a high of $30.72 per MMBtu in January 2026, reflecting a temporary price spike during a period of severe weather and significant market volatility.
On June 30, 2026, the WTI posted price for crude oil was $65.48 and the Henry Hub spot price for natural gas was $3.34 per MMBtu. See Results of Operations below for realized prices. Pipeline capacity constraints and maintenance in the Permian Basin area have contributed to a wider difference between the WaHa Hub and the Henry Hub, and at times prices were negative.
Contractual Obligations. We have no off-balance sheet debt or unrecorded obligations and have not guaranteed the debt of any other party. The following table summarizes our future payments we are obligated to make based on agreements in place as of June 30, 2026:
| Payments due in: | ||||||||||||||||
| Total | less than 1 year | 1 - 3 years | over 3 years | |||||||||||||
| Contractual obligations: | ||||||||||||||||
| Leases (1) | $ | 65,347 | $ | 60,320 | $ | 5,027 | $ | - | ||||||||
| (1) | The lease amount represents the monthly rent amount for our principal office space in Midland, Texas under a 36-month lease agreement expiring July 31, 2027. Of this total obligation for the remainder of the lease, our majority shareholder will pay $10,175 within 1 year and $848 in years 1-3 for his portion of the shared office space. |

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025. For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, net income was $501,065 compared to net income of $241,951 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This was the result of an increase in operating revenues and a decrease in operating expenses, which is further explained below.
Oil and gas sales. Revenue from oil and gas sales was $1,978,158 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, a 13% increase from $1,754,734 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This primarily resulted from an increase in oil prices partially offset by a decrease in gas prices and a decrease in oil and gas production volumes. The following table sets forth our oil and natural gas revenues, production quantities and average prices received during the three months ended June 30:
| 2026 | 2025 | % Difference | ||||||||||
| Oil: | ||||||||||||
| Revenue | $ | 1,811,183 | $ | 1,395,937 | 29.7 | % | ||||||

| Average Price (per mcf) | $ | 1.07 | $ | 2.11 | (49.1 | )% | ||||||
Income from investments in LLCs. Income from investments in LLCs increased 101% to $115,254 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 from $57,236 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This increase resulted primarily from higher earnings from one of the Company’s limited liability companies.
Interest income. Interest income on corporate funds increased 2% to $14,852 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 from $14,531 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This increase resulted from a change in our average cash balances.
Production and exploration. Production costs were $411,006 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a 1.5% increase from $404,770 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This was primarily due to an increase in lease operating expenses on wells in which we own a working interest.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization. DD&A expense was $606,521 for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, a 10% decrease from $675,270 for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily due to a decrease in oil and gas production volumes and an increase in natural gas reserves partially offset by a decrease in oil reserves and an increase in the full cost pool amortization base.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were $389,829 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a 1% decrease from $394,437 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This was primarily due to a decrease in stock option compensation and salaries partially offset by an increase in engineering, accounting, and legal fees.
Income taxes. Income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $195,310 compared to $103,231 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The combined federal and state effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was 28% and 30%, respectively. See Note 7 – Income Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The primary source of market risk for us includes fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. All of our financial instruments are for purposes other than trading.
Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk of loss as a result of nonperformance by other parties of their contractual obligations. Our primary credit risk relates to oil and gas production sold to various purchasers and the receivables are generally not collateralized. At June 30, 2026, our two largest purchasers accounted for approximately 38% and 20%, respectively, of our total oil and gas receivables. We have not experienced any significant credit losses.
| Page 16 |
Energy Price Risk. Our most significant market risk is the pricing applicable to our crude oil and natural gas production. Our financial condition, results of operations, and capital resources are highly dependent on the prevailing market prices of, and demand for, oil and natural gas. Prices for oil and natural gas production have been volatile and unpredictable for several years, and we expect this volatility to continue in the future.
Factors that can cause price fluctuations include the level of global demand for petroleum products, foreign and domestic supply of oil and gas, the establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil-exporting countries, weather conditions, the price and availability of alternative fuels, and overall political and economic conditions in oil producing and consuming countries.
For example, in the last twelve months, the NYMEX West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) posted price for crude oil has ranged from a low of $51.25 per bbl in December 2025 to a high of $108.93 per bbl in April 2026. The Henry Hub Spot Market Price (“Henry Hub”) for natural gas has ranged from a low of $2.54 per MMBtu in April 2026 to a high of $30.72 per MMBtu in January 2026, reflecting a temporary price spike during a period of severe weather and significant market volatility.
On June 30, 2026, the WTI posted price for crude oil was $65.48 and the Henry Hub spot price for natural gas was $3.34 per MMBtu. See Results of Operations above for realized prices.
Pipeline capacity constraints and maintenance in the Permian Basin area have contributed to a wider difference between the Waha Hub and the Henry Hub, and at times realized prices were negative.
Declines in oil and natural gas prices will materially adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing, and operating results. Changes in oil and gas prices affect both estimated future net revenues and the estimated quantity of proved reserves. Any reduction in reserves, including reductions due to price fluctuations, can reduce the borrowing base under our credit facility and adversely affect the amount of cash flow available for capital expenditures and our ability to obtain additional capital for our acquisition, exploration, and development activities. In addition, a noncash write-down of our oil and gas properties could be required under full cost accounting rules if prices declined significantly, even if it is only for a short period of time. Lower prices may also reduce the amount of crude oil and natural gas that can be produced economically. Thus, we may experience material increases or decreases in reserve quantities solely as a result of price changes, not drilling or well performance.
Similarly, any improvements in oil and gas prices can have a favorable impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and capital resources. Oil and natural gas prices do not necessarily fluctuate in direct relationship to each other. If the average oil price had increased or decreased by ten dollars per barrel for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, our oil sales would have changed by $188,020. If the average gas price had increased or decreased by one dollar per mcf for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, our natural gas sales would have increased or decreased by $155,426.
