THE RESERVE PETROLEUM COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In these notes the term “Company” refers to The Reserve Petroleum Company and its consolidated wholly owned subsidiary, Trinity Water Services, LLC (“TWSOK”), an Oklahoma limited liability company formed in March 2021 to provide initial capital, including the purchase of water well drilling equipment and startup costs, for TWS South, LLC (“TWSTX”), a Texas limited liability company. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of The Reserve Petroleum Company and its subsidiary, after elimination of all material intercompany balances and transactions.
The accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which has been derived from audited financial statements, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and these notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “2021 Form 10-K”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals), which are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the current interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2021 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2022 presentation. The amounts were not material to the consolidated financial statements and had no effect on previously reported net income or stockholders’ equity.
Note 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION
A portion of oil and gas sales recorded in the consolidated statements of income are the result of estimated volumes and pricing for oil and gas product not yet received for the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, that estimate represented approximately $ i 2,144,069 and $ i 395,331, respectively, of oil and gas sales included in the consolidated statements of income.
The Company’s disaggregated revenue has two primary revenue sources which are oil sales and natural gas sales. The following is an analysis of the components of oil and gas sales:

Note 5 – PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
In 2022 and 2021, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate, primarily as a result of allowable depletion for tax purposes in excess of the cost basis in oil and gas properties.
Excess federal percentage depletion, which is limited to certain production volumes and by certain income levels, reduces estimated taxable income projected for any year. The federal excess percentage depletion estimates will be updated throughout the year until finalized with the detail well-by-well calculations at year-end. When a provision for income taxes is recorded, federal excess percentage depletion benefits decrease the effective tax rate. When a benefit for income taxes is recorded, federal excess percentage depletion benefits increase the effective tax rate. The benefit of federal excess percentage depletion is not directly related to the amount of pre-tax income recorded in a period. Accordingly, in periods where a recorded pre-tax income is relatively small, the proportional effect of these items on the effective tax rate may be significant.
Note 6 – ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION
The Company records the fair value of its estimated liability to retire its oil and natural gas producing properties in the period in which it is incurred (typically the date of first sale). The estimated liability is calculated by obtaining current estimated plugging costs from the well operators and inflating it over the life of the property. Current year inflation rate used is i 4.08%. When the liability is first recorded, a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset is also recorded. Subsequently, the asset is amortized to expense over the life of the property and the liability is increased annually for the change in its present value which is currently i 3.25%.
A reconciliation of the Company’s asset retirement obligation liability is as follows:
i
| Balance at December 31, 2021 | $ | i 2,359,826 | ||
| Liabilities settled (wells sold or plugged) | ( i 18,715 | ) | ||
| Revision to estimate | i 1,569 | |||
| Accretion expense | i 30,118 | |||
| Balance at June 30, 2022 | $ | i 2,372,798 |
/
Note 7 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company uses a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Certain of the Company’s assets are reported at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis. The Company determined the fair value of equity securities using quoted market prices, and where applicable, securities with similar maturity dates and interest rates. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s assets reported at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized as follows:

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s asset retirement obligation annually represents a non-recurring fair value liability, for which there were i no liabilities incurred in the periods ending June 30, 2022 or 2021. See Note 6 above for more information about this liability and the inputs used for calculating fair value.
There was i no impairment loss in the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. This also relates to non-recurring fair value measurements calculated using Level 3 inputs. See Note 8 below for a description of the impairment loss calculation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s other financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, and trade payables. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the historical cost of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables and dividends payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term maturities of these items.
/
Note 8 - LONG-LIVED ASSETS IMPAIRMENT LOSS
Certain oil and gas producing properties have been deemed to be impaired because the assets, evaluated on a property-by-property basis, are not expected to recover their entire carrying value through future cash flows. There were i no impairment losses recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. Impairment losses, when recorded, are included in the consolidated statements of income in the line-item Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Valuation Provisions, when recorded. Impairments are calculated by reducing the carrying value of the individual properties to an estimated fair value equal to the discounted present value of the future cash flow from these properties. Forward pricing is used for estimating future revenue and cash flow.

FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Executive Overview
The military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related economic sanctions imposed on Russia has impacted existing supply shortages, causing oil and natural gas prices to increase during the first half of 2022. We cannot predict how the conflict will affect oil and natural gas prices in the future.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations – Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Net income increased $1,608,752 (178%) to $2,511,389 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $902,637 in the comparable period in 2021. Net income, basic, increased $10.31 to $16.08 per share in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $5.77 per share in the comparable period in 2021.
A discussion of revenue from oil and gas sales and other significant line items in the consolidated statements of income follows.
Operating Revenues. Revenues from oil and gas sales increased $4,384,879 (142%) to $7,472,177 in 2022 from $3,087,298 in 2021. This was due to increases in crude oil sales of $2,963,763, natural gas sales of $1,268,851 and sales of miscellaneous products of $152,265.
The $2,963,763 (147%) increase in oil sales to $4,981,206 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $2,017,443 in the comparable period in 2021 was the net result of an increase in the volume sold and an increase in the average price per barrel (Bbl). The volume of oil sold increased 12,443 Bbls to 48,484 Bbls in the six months ended June 30, 2022, resulting in a positive volume variance of $696,535. The average price per Bbl increased $46.76 to $102.74 per Bbl in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $55.98 per Bbl in the comparable period in 2021, resulting in a positive price variance of $2,267,228.
The $1,268,851 (133%) increase in natural gas sales to $2,225,496 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $956,645 in the comparable period in 2021 was the result of an increase in the volume sold and an increase in the average price per thousand cubic feet (MCF). The volume of natural gas sold increased 27,953 MCF to 351,054 MCF in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 323,101 MCF in the comparable period in 2021, for a positive volume variance of $82,763. The average price per MCF increased $3.38 to $6.34 per MCF in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $2.96 per MCF in the comparable period in 2021, resulting in a positive price variance of $1,186,088.
For both oil and gas sales, the price change was mostly the result of a change in the spot market prices upon which most of the Company’s oil and gas sales are based. These spot market prices have had significant fluctuations in the past and these fluctuations are expected to continue.
Sales of miscellaneous products were $265,475 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $113,210 in the comparable period in 2021, lease bonuses increased $132,801 to $141,801 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 for leases on its owned minerals with $9,000 in the comparable period in 2021.
The Company had water well drilling revenues of $544,688 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 related to water well drilling through TWSTX, with $75,477 in the comparable period in 2021.
Operating Costs and Expenses. Operating costs and expenses increased $721,820 (28%) to $3,334,137 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $2,612,317 in the comparable period in 2021. Material line-item changes are discussed and analyzed in the following paragraphs.
Production Costs. Production costs increased $590,072 (58%) in the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $1,604,045 from $1,013,973 in the comparable period in 2021. The increase was the result of an increase in gross production taxes and transportation costs of $302,523 and increases in lease operating expense and other costs of $287,549.
Exploration Costs. Exploration costs decreased $35,170 to $(6,023) in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $29,147 in the comparable period in 2021. This change was the result of an increase in geological, geophysical cost of $20,991, an increase in dry hole costs, P&A and other costs of $102,632, offset by an adjustment to leaseholds of $(158,793).
