NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
The accompanying financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all of the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles or those normally made in the Company's annual Form 10-K filing. Accordingly, the reader of this Form 10-Q may wish to refer to the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for further information.
The consolidated financial statements presented herein include the accounts of Spindletop Oil & Gas Co., a Texas corporation ("the Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Prairie Pipeline Co., a Texas corporation and Spindletop Drilling Company, a Texas corporation. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition, the results of operations and changes in cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the interim periods presented. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of this report of August 19, 2013.
Item 2. - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
This Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, principally, but not only, under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We caution investors that any forward-looking statements in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on management’s beliefs and on assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “result” and similar expressions which do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors, that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
-8- |
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. We caution you that while forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the factors listed and described at Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which investors should review. There have been no changes from the risk factors previously described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Form 10-K”).
The current global economic and financial crisis could lead to an extended national or global economic recession. A slowdown in economic activity caused by a recession would likely reduce national and worldwide demand for oil and natural gas and result in lower commodity prices for long periods of time. Prices for oil and natural gas are volatile. Costs of exploration, development and production have not yet adjusted to current economic conditions. Prolonged, substantial decreases in oil and natural gas prices would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, could further limit the Company's access to liquidity and credit and could hinder its ability to satisfy its capital requirements.
Capital and credit markets experienced unprecedented volatility and disruption over the last few years and continue to be unpredictable. Given the current levels of market volatility and disruption, the availability of funds from those markets has diminished substantially. Further, arising from concerns about the stability of financial markets generally and the solvency of borrowers specifically, the cost of accessing the credit markets has increased as many lenders have raised interest rates, enacted tighter lending standards or altogether ceased to provide funding to borrowers.
Due to these capital and credit market conditions, Spindletop cannot be certain that funding will be available to the Company in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company is evaluating whether current cash balances and cash flow from operations alone would be sufficient to provide working capital to fully fund the Company's operations. Accordingly, the Company is evaluating alternatives, such as joint ventures with third parties, or sales of interest in one or more of its properties. Such transactions if undertaken could result in a reduction in the Company's operating interests or require the Company to relinquish the right to operate the property. There can be no assurance that any such transactions can be completed or that such transactions will satisfy the Company's operating capital requirements. If the Company is not successful in obtaining sufficient funding or completing an alternative transaction on a timely basis on terms acceptable to the Company, Spindletop would be required to curtail its expenditures or restructure its operations, and the Company would be unable to continue its exploration, drilling, and recompletion program, any of which would have a material adverse effect on Spindletop's business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Obama administration has set forth budget proposals which if passed, would significantly curtail our ability to attract investors and raise capital. Proposed changes in the Federal income tax laws which would eliminate or reduce the percentage depletion deduction and the deduction for intangible drilling and development costs for small independent producers, will significantly reduce the investment capital available to those in the industry as well as our Company. Lengthening the time to expense seismic costs will also have an adverse effect on our ability to explore and find new reserves.
Other sections of this report may also include suggested factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such matters; nor can we assess the impact of all such matters on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties,
-9- |
investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Investors should also refer to our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods and current reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the SEC, and to other materials we may furnish to the public from time to time through Forms 8-K or otherwise.
Results of Operations
Six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to six months ended June 30, 2012
Oil and gas revenues for the first six months of 2013 were $5,673,000, as compared to $3,973,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $1,700,000 or 42.8%.
Natural gas revenues for the first six months of 2013 were $1,502,000 compared to $1,318,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $184,000, or 14.0%. Natural gas sales volumes for the first six months of 2013 were approximately 374,000 mcf compared to approximately 373,000 mcf during the first six months of 2012, an increase of approximately 1,000 mcf or 0.3%.
Average natural gas prices received were $4.02 per mcf in the first six months of 2013 as compared to $3.97 per mcf in the same time period in 2012, an increase of approximately $0.05 per mcf or 1.26%.
Oil sales for the first six months of 2013 were approximately $4,171,000 compared to approximately $2,655,000 for the first six months of 2012, an increase of approximately $1,516,000 or 57.10%. Oil sales volumes for the first six months of 2013 were approximately 40,300 bbls, compared to approximately 25,000 bbls during the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately 15,300 bbls, or 61.2%.
Average oil prices received were $103.46 per bbl in the first half of 2013 compared to $103.97 per bbl in the first half of 2012, a decrease of approximately $0.51 per bbl or 0.49%.
Revenue from lease operations was $187,000 in the first six months of 2013 compared to $186,000 in the first six months of 2012, an increase of $1,000 or 0.54%.
Revenue from gas gathering, compression and equipment rental for the first six months of 2013 was $63,000 compared to $73,000 for the same period in 2012, a decrease of $10,000 or 13.7%.
Real estate income was approximately $123,000 during the first six months of 2013 compared to $130,000 for the first six months of 2012, a decrease of approximately $7,000, or 5.38%.
Interest income was $42,000 during the first six months of 2013 as compared to $38,000 during the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $4,000 or 10.5%.
Other income for the first six months of 2013 was $43,000 as compared to $896,000 for the same time period in 2012, a decrease of $853,000 or 95.2%. This change is due to the decrease in cash received for farm-out agreements in the first six months of 2013 compared to those received in the first six months of 2012. From time to time, the Company farms out some of its leasehold acreage to non-affiliated third parties for exploration and development drilling. Generally, the Company receives a one-time payment for the agreement. The revenues from these farm-out agreements vary in size and frequency and should not be considered as regularly recurring revenues that the Company receives.
Lease operations expense in the first six months of 2013 was $1,054,000 as compared to $1,026,000 in the first six months of 2012, a net increase of approximately $28,000, or 2.7%. This net increase is due primarily to workover costs between the two periods.
-10- |
Production taxes, gathering and marketing expenses in the first six months of 2013 were approximately $504,000 as compared to $365,000 for the first six months of 2012, an increase of approximately $139,000, or 38.1%. This increase is due primarily to the increased production of crude oil between the periods.
Pipeline and rental operations expenses for the first six months of 2013 were $21,000 compared to $12,000 for the same time period in 2012, an increase of $9,000, or 75.0%. This is due to an increase in repairs and chemicals needed to maintain the equipment.
Real estate operations expense in the first six months of 2013 was approximately $87,000 compared to $72,000 during the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $15,000 or 20.8%.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization for first six months of 2013 was $844,000 as compared to $671,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of $173,000, or 25.8%. $808,000 of the amount for the first six months of 2013 was for amortization of the full cost pool of capitalized costs compared to $614,000 for the same period of 2012, an increase of $194,000 or 31.6%. The Company re-evaluated its proved oil and natural gas reserve quantities as of December 31, 2012. This re-evaluated reserve base was adjusted for the first six months as of June 30, 2013 by estimating variances in average prices of oil and natural gas that occurred during the period, adding estimated quantities of oil and natural gas reserves acquired during the period, and deducting oil and natural gas reserves that were produced or sold during the period. A depletion rate of 2.951% for the first quarter of 2013 and a depletion rate of 3.510% for the second quarter of 2013 was calculated and applied to the Company’s full cost pool of capitalized oil and natural gas properties compared to a total depletion rate of 5.378% for the first six months of 2012.
Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”) expense for the first six months of 2013 was approximately $20,000 as compared to approximately $17,000 for the same time period in 2012, an increase of approximately $3,000.
General and administrative costs for the first six months of 2013 were approximately $1,536,000 as compared to approximately $1,594,000 for the same time period of 2012, a decrease of approximately $58,000 or 3.6%.
Interest expense was approximately $13,000 for the first six months of 2013 compared to approximately $15,000 for the same period in 2012, a decrease of approximately $2,000 or 13.3%. This is due to the continued reduction of the principal amount of the loan on the office building owned by the Company as interest on the note is calculated and paid based on the unpaid balance of the loan.
Three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to three months ended June 30, 2012
Oil and natural gas revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were $3,528,000, compared to $2,215,000 for the same time period in 2012, an increase of $1,313,000, or 59.3%.
Natural gas revenues for the second quarter of 2013 were $863,000 compared to $614,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of $249,000 or 40.6%. Natural gas volumes sold for the second quarter of 2013 were approximately 178,000 mcf compared to approximately 216,000 mcf during the same period of 2012, a decrease of approximately 38,000 mcf, or 17.6%.
Average natural gas prices received were approximately $4.85 per mcf in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to approximately $3.27 per mcf during the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $1.58 or 48.3%. This increase in natural gas prices is the primary reason for the overall increase in natural gas revenues between the periods.
Oil sales for the second quarter of 2013 were approximately $2,665,000 compared to approximately $1,601,000 for the same period of 2012, an increase of approximately $1,064,000 or 66.46%. Oil volumes recorded for the second quarter of 2013 were approximately 24,700 bbls compared to approximately 14,600 bbls during the same period of 2012, an increase of 10,100 bbl or 69.17%. The Company recorded a one-time payment of approximately $725,000
-11- |
of oil revenue from non-operated properties during the second quarter of 2012. These revenues covered production periods through the end of the second quarter 2012. Oil volumes recorded related to this one-time payment, were approximately 6,700 bbls.
Average oil prices received were approximately $107.89 per bbl in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $104.75 per bbl during the same period of 2012, an increase of approximately $3.14 per bbl, or 3.0%.
Revenue from lease operations for the second quarter of 2013 was approximately $96,000 compared to approximately $105,000 for the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of $9,000 or 8.6%.
Revenue from gas gathering, compression and equipment rental for the second quarter of 2013 was approximately $35,000, compared to approximately $41,000, a decrease of approximately $6,000 or 14.6% for the same period in 2012.
Real estate income was approximately $64,000 during the second quarter of 2013 compared to $62,000 for the same time period of 2012, an increase of approximately $2,000, or 3.2%.
Interest income for the second quarter of 2013 was approximately $24,000 as compared with approximately $20,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $4,000 or 20.0%.
Other income for second quarter of 2013 was approximately $16,000 as compared with approximately $497,000 for the same period in 2012, a decrease of approximately $481,000. This change is due to the decrease in cash received for farm-out agreements in the second quarter of 2013 compared to those received in the same period in 2012. From time to time, the Company farms out some of its leasehold acreage to non-affiliated third parties for exploration and development drilling. Generally, the Company receives a one-time payment for the agreement. The revenues from these farm-out agreements vary in size and frequency and should not be considered as regularly recurring revenues that the Company receives.
Lease operating expenses in the second quarter of 2013 were $609,000 as compared to $647,000 for the same period in 2012, a net decrease of approximately $38,000, or 5.9%. This net decrease is due primarily to fewer workover costs between the two periods.
Production taxes, gathering, transportation and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2013 were approximately $337,000 as compared to $200,000 during the second quarter of 2012, a net increase of approximately $137,000 or 68.5%. This increase is due primarily to the increased production of crude oil between the periods.
Pipeline and rental operations for the second quarter of 2013 were $13,000 compared to $6,000 for the same time period in 2012. This is due to an increase in repairs and chemicals needed to maintain the equipment.
Real estate expenses during the second quarter 2013 were approximately $39,000 compared to approximately $34,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $5,000 or 14.7%.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization for the second quarter of 2013 was $457,000 as compared to $380,000 for the same period in 2012, an increase of $77,000, or 20.3%. $438,000 of the amount for the second quarter of 2013 was for amortization of the full cost pool of capitalized costs compared to $351,000 for the second quarter of 2012, an increase of $87,000 or 24.8%. The Company re-evaluated its proved oil and natural gas reserve quantities as of December 31, 2012. This re-evaluated reserve base was adjusted for the first six months as of June 30, 2013 by estimating variances in average prices of oil and natural gas that occurred during the period, adding estimated quantities of oil and natural gas reserves acquired during the period, and deducting oil and natural gas reserves that were produced or sold during the period. A depletion rate of 2.951% for the first quarter of 2013 and a depletion rate of 3.510% for the second quarter of 2013 was calculated and applied to the Company’s full cost pool of capitalized oil and natural gas properties compared to a total depletion rate of 5.378% for the first six months of 2012.
Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”) expense for the second quarter of 2013 was approximately $10,000 as compared to approximately $9,000 for the same time period in 2012, an increase of approximately $1,000.
-12- |
General and administrative costs for the second quarter of 2013 were $768,000 compared to $772,000 for the same period in 2012, a decrease of approximately $4,000 or 0.5%.
Interest expense was approximately $7,000 for the second quarter of 2013 compared to approximately $7,000 for the same period in 2012.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The Company's operating capital needs, as well as its capital spending program are generally funded from cash flow generated by operations. Because future cash flow is subject to a number of variables, such as the level of production and the sales price of oil and natural gas, the Company can provide no assurance that its operations will provide cash sufficient to maintain current levels of capital spending. Accordingly, the Company may be required to seek additional financing from third parties in order to fund its exploration and development programs.

The well was drilled to a depth of 12,197’ and cased. The well was perforated in the Upper and Lower Smackover Formation at a depth of 11,880-12,046’. The well was acidized with 5,000 gals of 15% HCL and placed into production on 6/28/2013. The well flowed 403 bo, 461 mcf and no water during the first 24 hrs.
West Texas
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company elected to participate for a 4.6875% non-operated working interest and a 3.28125% net revenue interest in the drilling of the Miles #30 well in the Fuhrman-Mascho field in Andrews County, Texas.
