Rhea-AI Filing Summary

PHX Minerals Inc. filed Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to three previously effective Form S-8 registration statements (Nos. 333-245670, 333-261627 and 333-273801). The filing deregisters all unsold shares of PHX common stock that had been reserved for issuance under the company’s 2010 Restricted Stock Plan, 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan and Amended & Restated 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The total share amounts originally registered were 230,677, 2,500,000 and 2,400,000, respectively.

The amendments follow the consummation of the Merger on 23 June 2025, in which WhiteHawk Merger Sub, Inc. merged with and into PHX Minerals, making PHX a wholly owned subsidiary of WhiteHawk Acquisition, Inc. As a result, PHX has terminated all offerings and sales under the three S-8 registration statements and is formally removing any remaining unsold securities from registration, thereby ending the effectiveness of each statement.

This is an administrative filing required under undertakings in the original S-8s and does not contain new financial results or operational disclosures.

PHX Minerals Inc. ha presentato l'Emendamento Post-Efficacia n. 1 a tre precedenti dichiarazioni di registrazione Form S-8 già efficaci (n. 333-245670, 333-261627 e 333-273801). La presentazione cancella la registrazione di tutte le azioni non vendute di azioni ordinarie PHX riservate per l'emissione nell'ambito del Piano Azionario Vincolato 2010, del Piano di Incentivi a Lungo Termine 2021 e del Piano di Incentivi a Lungo Termine 2021 Modificato e Ristabilito della società. Le quantità totali di azioni originariamente registrate erano rispettivamente 230.677, 2.500.000 e 2.400.000.

Gli emendamenti seguono la conclusione della Fusione avvenuta il 23 giugno 2025, in cui WhiteHawk Merger Sub, Inc. si è fusa con e in PHX Minerals, rendendo PHX una controllata interamente posseduta da WhiteHawk Acquisition, Inc. Di conseguenza, PHX ha terminato tutte le offerte e vendite ai sensi delle tre dichiarazioni di registrazione S-8 e sta formalmente rimuovendo qualsiasi titolo residuo non venduto dalla registrazione, ponendo così fine all'efficacia di ciascuna dichiarazione.

Si tratta di una presentazione amministrativa richiesta dagli impegni previsti nelle S-8 originali e non contiene nuovi risultati finanziari o informazioni operative.

La presentación anula la inscripción de todas las acciones no vendidas de acciones ordinarias de PHX que se habían reservado para emisión bajo el Plan de Acciones Restringidas 2010, el Plan de Incentivos a Largo Plazo 2021 y el Plan de Incentivos a Largo Plazo 2021 Modificado y Reexpresado de la compañía. Las cantidades totales de acciones registradas originalmente fueron 230,677, 2,500,000 y 2,400,000, respectivamente.

Las enmiendas siguen a la finalización de la Fusión el 23 de junio de 2025, en la que WhiteHawk Merger Sub, Inc. se fusionó con y dentro de PHX Minerals, convirtiendo a PHX en una subsidiaria de propiedad total de WhiteHawk Acquisition, Inc. Como resultado, PHX ha terminado todas las ofertas y ventas bajo las tres declaraciones de registro S-8 y está eliminando formalmente cualquier valor no vendido restante de la inscripción, poniendo fin así a la vigencia de cada declaración.

PHX Minerals Inc.는 이전에 효력이 있었던 세 건의 Form S-8 등록서류(번호 333-245670, 333-261627, 333-273801)에 대한 사후효력개정안 1호를 제출했습니다. 이 제출은 회사의 2010년 제한주식계획, 2021년 장기 인센티브 계획 및 수정 및 재작성된 2021년 장기 인센티브 계획에 따라 발행 예약된 PHX 보통주의 판매되지 않은 모든 주식의 등록을 말소합니다. 원래 등록된 총 주식 수는 각각 230,677주, 2,500,000주, 2,400,000주였습니다.

이 개정은 2025년 6월 23일에 완료된 합병 완료에 따른 것으로, WhiteHawk Merger Sub, Inc.가 PHX Minerals와 합병되어 PHX가 WhiteHawk Acquisition, Inc.의 완전 자회사로 되었습니다. 그 결과 PHX는 세 건의 S-8 등록서류에 따른 모든 공모 및 판매를 종료하고 남아있는 미판매 증권을 공식적으로 등록에서 제거하여 각 서류의 효력을 종료합니다.

이는 원래 S-8에 따른 약속에 의해 요구되는 행정적 제출이며, 새로운 재무 결과나 운영 공시는 포함하지 않습니다.

PHX Minerals Inc. a déposé l'Amendement Post-Efficace n° 1 à trois déclarations d'enregistrement Formulaire S-8 précédemment en vigueur (n° 333-245670, 333-261627 et 333-273801). Le dépôt désenregistre toutes les actions non vendues des actions ordinaires PHX qui avaient été réservées pour émission dans le cadre du Plan d'Actions Restreintes 2010, du Plan d'Incitations à Long Terme 2021 et du Plan d'Incitations à Long Terme 2021 modifié et révisé de la société. Les quantités totales d'actions initialement enregistrées étaient respectivement de 230 677, 2 500 000 et 2 400 000.

Les amendements font suite à la finalisation de la Fusion le 23 juin 2025, au cours de laquelle WhiteHawk Merger Sub, Inc. a fusionné avec PHX Minerals, faisant de PHX une filiale en propriété exclusive de WhiteHawk Acquisition, Inc. En conséquence, PHX a mis fin à toutes les offres et ventes en vertu des trois déclarations d'enregistrement S-8 et retire formellement tous les titres non vendus restants de l'enregistrement, mettant ainsi fin à l'efficacité de chaque déclaration.

Il s'agit d'un dépôt administratif requis en vertu des engagements des S-8 originaux et ne contient pas de nouveaux résultats financiers ni de divulgations opérationnelles.

PHX Minerals Inc. hat die Nachwirkungsänderung Nr. 1 zu drei zuvor wirksamen Form S-8-Registrierungserklärungen (Nr. 333-245670, 333-261627 und 333-273801) eingereicht. Die Einreichung storniert die Registrierung aller unveräußerten Aktien von PHX-Stammaktien, die für die Ausgabe im Rahmen des Restricted Stock Plans 2010, des Long-Term Incentive Plans 2021 und des geänderten & neu gefassten Long-Term Incentive Plans 2021 der Gesellschaft reserviert waren. Die ursprünglich registrierten Gesamtaktienmengen betrugen jeweils 230.677, 2.500.000 und 2.400.000.

Die Änderungen folgen auf den Abschluss der Fusion am 23. Juni 2025, bei der WhiteHawk Merger Sub, Inc. mit PHX Minerals verschmolzen wurde, wodurch PHX eine hundertprozentige Tochtergesellschaft von WhiteHawk Acquisition, Inc. wurde. Infolgedessen hat PHX alle Angebote und Verkäufe im Rahmen der drei S-8-Registrierungserklärungen eingestellt und entfernt formell alle verbleibenden unveräußerten Wertpapiere aus der Registrierung, wodurch die Wirksamkeit jeder Erklärung beendet wird.

Dies ist eine administrative Einreichung, die aufgrund von Verpflichtungen in den ursprünglichen S-8s erforderlich ist, und enthält keine neuen finanziellen Ergebnisse oder operative Offenlegungen.

Positive
  • Confirms completion of merger, providing finality on ownership status.
  • Eliminates potential dilution by cancelling 5.13 million previously registered shares.
Negative
  • Ends public share incentive plans, signaling no further equity participation opportunities for former public investors.

Insights

TL;DR: Routine deregistration of unsold S-8 shares after merger; largely administrative, limited investor impact.

The post-effective amendments merely execute an S-8 housekeeping task following completion of the merger with WhiteHawk. By removing unsold equity from registration, PHX complies with undertakings and closes its equity incentive plans as a public entity. No new capital is raised, no dilution occurs, and the company is now privately held. The action is neutral to prior public shareholders, whose economic interests were addressed in the merger transaction itself. The filing signals proper governance but does not independently move valuation.

TL;DR: Filing confirms PHX is now a WhiteHawk subsidiary; S-8 cancellations have no earnings or cash-flow effect.

For investors tracking legacy PHX securities, this amendment confirms the legal completion of the merger and the end of public share issuance programs. All 5.13 million shares previously registered under incentive plans are now void from an SEC registration standpoint, eliminating any future overhang. Because PHX is no longer publicly traded, the event is informational only and does not alter the parent’s balance sheet or PHX’s underlying asset base. Impact on investors is neutral.
