Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Organization and Nature of Operations

Denbury Inc. (“Denbury,” “Company” or the “Successor”), a Delaware corporation, is an independent oil and natural gasenergy company with operations focused in two key operating areas: the Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain regions. Our goalThe Company is to increase the value of our properties through a combination of exploitation, drilling and proven engineering extraction practices, with the most significant emphasis relating todifferentiated by its focus on CO2 enhanced oil recovery (“EOR”) and the emerging carbon capture, use, and storage (“CCUS”) industry, supported by the Company’s CO2 EOR technical and operational expertise and its extensive CO2 pipeline infrastructure. The utilization of captured industrial-sourced CO2 in EOR significantly reduces the carbon footprint of the oil that Denbury produces, underpinning the Company’s goal to fully offset its Scope 1, 2, and 3 CO2 emissions within this decade, primarily through increasing the amount of captured industrial-sourced CO2 used in its operations.

As further described in Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code

below, Denbury Inc. became the successor reporting company ofOn July 30, 2020, Denbury Resources Inc. (the “Predecessor”) upon the Predecessor’s emergence from bankruptcy on September 18, 2020. References to “Successor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company subsequent to September 18, 2020, and references to “Predecessor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company prior to, and including, September 18, 2020. On September 18, 2020, Denbury filed the Third Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect a change of the Company’s corporate name from Denbury Resources Inc. to Denbury Inc., and on September 21, 2020, the Successor’s new common stock commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol DEN.

Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code

On July 28, 2020, Denbury Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “RSA”) with lenders holding 100% of the revolving loans under our pre-petition revolving bank credit facility and debtholders holding approximately 67.1% of our senior secured second lien notes and approximately 73.1% of our convertible senior notes, which contemplated a restructuring of the Company pursuant to a prepackaged joint plan of reorganization (the “Plan”). On July 30, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), Denbury Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries filed petitions for reorganization in a “prepackaged” voluntary bankruptcy (the “Chapter 11 Restructuring”) under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) under the caption “In re Denbury Resources Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33801”. On September 2, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the Planprepackaged joint plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) and approving the Disclosure Statement, and on September 18, 2020 (the “Emergence Date”), the Plan became effective in accordance with its terms and the Company emerged from Chapter 11.11 as the successor reporting company of Denbury Resources Inc. On April 23, 2021, the Emergence Date and pursuant toBankruptcy Court entered a final decree closing the termsChapter 11 case captioned “In re Denbury Resources Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33801”, so all of the PlanChapter 11 cases have been closed.

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, we met the criteria and the Confirmation Order, all outstanding obligations under the senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, and senior subordinated notes were fully extinguished, relieving approximately $2.1 billion of debt by issuing equity and/or warrantsrequired to adopt fresh start accounting in the Successor to the former holders of that debt, and the Company:

Adopted an amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws which reserved for issuance 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Denbury (the “New Common Stock”) and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share;
Cancelled all outstanding senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, and senior subordinated notes issued by the Predecessor and related registration rights. In accordance with the Plan, claims against and interests in the Predecessor were treated as follows:

Holders of secured pipeline lease claims received payment in full in cash, the collateral securing such pipeline lease claim, reinstatement, or such other treatment rendering such pipeline lease claim unimpaired (see Note 6, Long-Term DebtPipeline Financing Transactions, for discussion of subsequent pipeline transactions);
Holders of senior secured second lien notes claims received their pro rata share of 47,499,999 shares representing 95% of the New Common Stock issued on the Emergence Date, subject to dilution on account of warrants and a to-be-adopted management incentive plan;
Holders of convertible senior notes claims received their pro rata share of (a) 2,500,000 shares representing 5% of the New Common Stock issued on the Emergence Date, subject to dilution on account of warrants and a to-be-adopted management incentive plan and (b) 100% of the series A warrants (see below), reflecting up to a maximum of 5% ownership stake in the reorganized company’s equity interests;
Holders of subordinated notes claims received their pro rata share of 54.55% of the series B warrants (see below), reflecting up to a maximum of 3% of the reorganized company’s equity interests after giving effect to the exercise of the series A warrants;

Denbury Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Holders of general unsecured claims received payment in full in cash, reimbursement, or such other treatment rendering such general unsecured claim unimpaired; and
Holder of existing equity interests received their pro rata share of 45.45% of the series B warrants (see below), reflecting up to a maximum of 2.5% of the reorganized company’s equity interests after giving effect to the exercise of the series A warrants.
Issued 2,631,579 series A warrants at an initial exercise price of $32.59 per share to former holders of the Predecessor’s convertible senior notes and 2,894,740 series B warrants at an initial exercise price of $35.41 per share to former holders of the Predecessor’s senior subordinated notes and Predecessor’s equity interests;
Entered into a new senior secured revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “Successor Bank Credit Agreement”) with total aggregate commitments of $575 million;
Appointed a new board of directors (the “Board”) consisting of four new independent members: Anthony Abate, Caroline Angoorly, Brett Wiggs and James N. “Jim” Chapman, and three continuing members: Dr. Kevin O. Meyers (Chairman of the Board), Lynn A. Peterson and Chris Kendall, Denbury’s President and Chief Executive Officer; and
Adopted a framework for a management incentive plan which will reserve primarily for employees and directors a pool of shares of New Common Stock representing up to 10% of the New Common Stock, determined on a fully diluted and fully distributed basis, with initial awards from within this pool to be issued within 60 days of emergence.

During the Predecessor period, the Company applied Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification (“FASC”) Topic 852, Reorganizations in preparing. Fresh start accounting requires that new fair values be established for the consolidated financial statements. FASC Topic 852 requires the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the commencementCompany’s assets, liabilities and equity as of the Chapter 11 Restructuring, to distinguish transactionsEmergence Date, and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operationstherefore certain values and operational results of the business. Accordingly, certain charges incurred during 2020 related to the Chapter 11 Restructuring, including the write-off of unamortized long-term debt fees and discounts associated with debt classified as liabilities subject to compromise, and professional fees incurred directly as a result of the Chapter 11 Restructuring are recorded as “Reorganization items, net” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the Predecessor period. FASC Topic 852 requires certain additional reporting for financial statements prepared between the bankruptcy filing date and the date of emergence from bankruptcy, including:

Reclassification of pre-petition liabilities that are unsecured, under-secured or where it cannot be determined that the liabilities are fully secured, to a separate line item in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet titled “Liabilities subject to compromise”; and
Segregation of Reorganization items, net as a separate line in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming thatsubsequent to September 18, 2020 are not comparable to those in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements prior to, and including September 18, 2020. The Emergence Date fair values of the Successor’s assets and liabilities differ materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheets of the Predecessor contained in periodic reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. References to “Successor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company will continue as a going concernsubsequent to September 18, 2020, and contemplatereferences to “Predecessor” relate to the realizationfinancial position and results of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the Chapter 11 Restructuring, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern was contingent upon the Company’s ability to successfully implement a prepackaged joint plan of reorganization, among other factors. As a resultoperations of the effectivenessCompany prior to, and implementation of the restructuring, there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.including, September 18, 2020.

Interim Financial Statements

Reclassifications
Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a rapid and precipitous drop in oil demand, which worsened an already deteriorated oil market that followed the early-March 2020 failure by the group of oil producing nations known as OPEC+ to reach an agreement over proposed oil production cuts. Although OPEC+ subsequently agreed to reduced levels of production output, concerns about the ability of OPEC+ to maintain compliance with their reduced production targets and uncertainty about the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting economic consequences has resulted in abnormally high worldwide inventories of produced oil. While oil prices have improved from the low points experienced during the second quarter of 2020, the concerns and uncertainties around the balance of supply and demand for oil are expected to continue for some time. Because the realized oil prices we have received since early March 2020Certain prior period amounts have been significantly reduced,reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated in the same manner but includes the impact of potentially dilutive securities.  Potentially dilutive securities have historicallyduring the Successor periods consist of nonvested restricted stock units and outstanding series A and series B warrants, and during the Predecessor periods consisted of nonvested restricted stock, nonvested performance-based equity awards, warrants, and shares into which our convertible senior notes are convertible. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no adjustments to net loss for purposes of calculating basic and diluted net loss per common share.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties

Unevaluated Costs. Under full cost accounting, we exclude certain unevaluated costs from the amortization base and full cost ceiling test pending the determination of whether proved reserves can be assigned to such properties. These costs are transferred to the full cost amortization base as these properties are developed, tested and evaluated. At least annually, we test these assets for impairment based on an evaluation of management’s expectations of future pricing, evaluation of lease expiration terms, and planned development activities. GivenIn the first quarter of 2020 Predecessor period, given the significant declines in NYMEX oil prices in March and April 2020, due to the oil supply and demand imbalance precipitated by the dramatic fall in demand associated with the COVID-19 pandemic combined with the concurrent OPEC+ decision to increase oil supply, we reassessed our development plans and recognized an impairment oftransferred $244.9 million of our unevaluated costs during the three months ended March 31, 2020 (Predecessor), whereby these costs were transferred to the full cost amortization base. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company adopted fresh start accounting which resulted in our oil and natural gas properties, including unevaluated properties, being recorded at their fair values at the Emergence Date (see Note 2, Fresh Start Accounting, for additional information).Date.

Write-Down of Oil and Natural Gas Properties. TheUnder full cost accounting, the net capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties are limited to the lower of unamortized cost or the cost center ceiling. The cost center ceiling is defined as (1) the present value of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and natural gas reserves before future abandonment costs (discounted at 10%), based on the average first-day-of-the-month oil and natural gas price for each month during a 12-month rolling period prior to the end of a particular reporting period; plus (2) the cost of properties not being amortized; plus (3) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized, if any; less (4) related income tax effects. Our future net revenues from proved oil and natural gas reserves are not reduced for development costs related to the cost of drilling for and developing

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

CO2 reserves nor those related to the cost of constructing CO2 pipelines, as we do not have to incur additional CO2 capital costs to develop the proved oil and natural gas reserves. Therefore, we include in the ceiling test, as a reduction of future net revenues, that portion of our capitalized CO2 costs related to CO2 reserves and CO2 pipelines that we estimate will be consumed in the process of producing our proved oil and natural gas reserves. The fair value of our oil and natural gas derivative contracts is not included in the ceiling test, as we do not designate these contracts as hedge instruments for accounting purposes. The cost center ceiling test is prepared quarterlyquarterly.

We recognized a full cost pool ceiling test write-down of $14.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, with first-day-of-the-month NYMEX oil prices for the preceding 12 months averaging $36.40 per Bbl, after adjustments for market differentials and transportation expenses by field. The write-down was also prepared asprimarily a result of the Emergence Date.recent acquisition (see

The PredecessorNote 2Acquisition and Divestiture) which was recorded based on a valuation that utilized NYMEX strip oil prices at the acquisition date, which were significantly higher than the average first-day-of-the-month NYMEX oil prices used to value the cost ceiling. We also recognized full cost pool ceiling test write-downs of $261.7$662.4 million and $72.5 million during the period from July 1,Predecessor three months ended June 30, 2020 through September 18,and March 31, 2020, $662.4 millionrespectively. We did 0t record a ceiling test write-down during the three months ended June 30, 2020, and $72.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. There was no full cost pool ceiling test write-down for the Successor period from September 19, 2020 through September 30, 2020. The first-day-of-the-month oil prices for the preceding 12 months, after adjustments for market differentials by field, averaged $40.08 per Bbl as of September 18, 2020, $44.74 per Bbl as of June 30, 2020, and $55.17 per Bbl as of March 31, 2020. In addition, the first-day-of-the-month natural gas prices for the preceding 12 months, after adjustments for market differentials by field, averaged $1.72 per MMBtu as of September 18, 2020, $1.91 per MMBtu as of June 30, 2020, and $1.68 per MMBtu as of March 31, 2020.

Impairment Assessment of Long-Lived Assets

2021.
We test long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. These long-lived assets, which are not subject to our full cost pool ceiling test, are principally comprised of our capitalized CO
2 properties and pipelines. Given the significant declines in NYMEX oil prices to approximately $20 per Bbl in late March 2020 due to OPEC supply pressures and a reduction in worldwide oil demand amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we performed a long-lived asset impairment test for our two long-lived asset groups (Gulf Coast region and Rocky Mountain region) as of March 31, 2020 (Predecessor).

We perform our long-lived asset impairment test by comparing the net carrying costs of our two long-lived asset groups to the respective expected future undiscounted net cash flows that are supported by these long-lived assets which include production of our probable and possible oil and natural gas reserves. The portion of our capitalized CO2 costs related to CO2 reserves and CO2 pipelines that we estimate will be consumed in the process of producing our proved oil and natural gas reserves is included in the full cost pool ceiling test as a reduction to future net revenues.  The remaining net capitalized costs that are not included in the full cost pool ceiling test, and related intangible assets, are subject to long-lived asset impairment testing. These costs totaled approximately $1.3 billion as of March 31, 2020 (Predecessor). If the undiscounted net cash flows are below the net carrying costs for an asset group, we must record an impairment loss by the amount, if any, that net carrying costs exceed the fair value of the long-lived asset group. The undiscounted net cash flows for our asset groups exceeded the net carrying costs; thus, step two of the impairment test was not required and 0 impairment was recorded.

Significant assumptions impacting expected future undiscounted net cash flows include projections of future oil and natural gas prices, projections of estimated quantities of oil and natural gas reserves, projections of future rates of production, timing and amount of future development and operating costs, projected availability and cost of CO2, projected recovery factors of tertiary reserves and risk-adjustment factors applied to the cash flows. We performed a qualitative assessment as of June 30, 2020 and September 18, 2020 (Predecessor periods) and determined there were no material changes to our key cash flow assumptions and no triggering events since the analysis performed as of March 31, 2020; therefore, 0 impairment test was performed for the second quarter of 2020 or for the period ending September 18, 2020. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company adopted fresh start accounting which resulted in our long-lived assets being recorded at their fair value at the Emergence Date (see Note 2, Fresh Start Accounting, for additional information).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”).ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, and requires the use of a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Fresh Start Accounting

Fresh Start Accounting

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, we met the criteria and were required to adopt fresh start accounting in accordance with FASC Topic 852, Reorganizations, which on the Emergence Date resulted in a new entity, the Successor, for financial reporting purposes, with no beginning retained earnings or deficit as of the fresh start reporting date. The criteria requiring fresh start accounting are: (1) the holders of the then-existing common shares of the Predecessor received less than 50 percent of the new common shares of the Successor outstanding upon emergence from bankruptcy and (2) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.

10
Fresh start accounting requires that new fair values be established for the Company’s assets, liabilities and equity as of the date of emergence from bankruptcy, September 18, 2020, and therefore certain values and operational results of the condensed consolidated financial statements subsequent to September 18, 2020 are not comparable to those in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements prior to, and including September 18, 2020. The Emergence Date fair values of the Successor’s assets and liabilities differ materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheet of the Predecessor.

Reorganization Value

The reorganization value derived from the range of enterprise values associated with the Plan was allocated to the Company’s identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair values. Under FASC Topic 852, reorganization value generally approximates the fair value of the entity before considering liabilities and is intended to approximate the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets immediately after the effects of the restructuring. The value of the reconstituted entity (i.e., Successor) was based on management projections and the valuation models as determined by the Company’s financial advisors in setting an estimated range of enterprise values. As set forth in the Plan and Disclosure Statement approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the valuation analysis resulted in an enterprise value between $1.1 billion and $1.5 billion, with a mid-point of $1.3 billion. For U.S. GAAP purposes, we valued the Successor’s individual assets, liabilities, and equity instruments and determined the value of the enterprise was approximately $1.3 billion as of the Emergence Date, which fell in line with the mid-point of the forecast enterprise value ranges approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Specific valuation approaches and key assumptions used to arrive at reorganization value, and the value of discrete assets and liabilities resulting from the application of fresh start accounting, are described below in greater detail within the valuation process.

The acquisition agreement provides for us to make two contingent cash payments, one in January 2022 and one in January 2023, of $4 million each, conditioned on NYMEX WTI oil prices averaging at least $50 per Bbl during 2021 and 2022, respectively.

Divestiture of Hartzog Draw Deep Mineral Rights

On June 30, 2021, we closed the sale of undeveloped, unconventional deep mineral rights in Hartzog Draw Field in Wyoming. The cash proceeds of $18 million and fees of $3.1 million relatedwere recorded to the Senior Secured Superpriority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (“DIP Facility”) were included in cash outflows from operating activities and financing activities, respectively,“Proved properties” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the period January 1, 2020 through September 18, 2020.

Valuation Process

Balance Sheets. The fair values ofproceeds reduced our principal assets, including oil and natural gas properties, CO2 properties, pipelines, other property and equipment, long-term CO2 customer contracts, favorable and unfavorable vendor contracts, pipeline financing liabilities and right-of-use assets, asset retirement obligations and warrants were estimated as of the Emergence Date.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties

The Company’s principal assets are its oil and natural gas properties, which are accounted for under the full cost accounting method as described in Note 1, Basis of PresentationOil and Natural Gas Properties. The Company determined the fair value of its oil and gas properties based on the discounted cash flows expected to be generated from these assets. The computations were based on market conditions and reserves in place as of the Emergence Date.

The fair value analysis was based on the Company’s estimated future production of proved and probable reserves as prepared by the Company’s independent petroleum engineering firm. Discounted cash flow models were prepared using the estimated future revenues and operating costs for all developed wells and undeveloped properties comprising the proved and probable reserves. Future revenues were based upon forward strip oil and natural gas prices as of the Emergence Date through 2024 and escalated for inflation thereafter, adjusted for differentials. Operating costs were adjusted for inflation beginning in year 2025. A risk adjustment factor was applied to each reserve category, consistent with the risk of the category. The discounted cash flow models also included adjustments for income tax expenses.

Discount factors utilized were derived using a weighted average cost of capital computation, which included an estimated cost of debt and equity for market participants with similar geographies and asset development type and varying corporate income tax rates based on the expected point of sale for each property’s produced assets. Cash flows were also adjusted for a market participant profit on CO2 costs, since Denbury charges oil fields for CO2 use on a cost basis. Finally, reserve values were adjusted for any asset retirement obligations as well as for CO2 indirect costs not directly allocable to oil fields. Based on this analysis, the Company concluded the fair value of its proved and probable reserves was $865.4 million as of the Emergence Date (see footnote 10 to Fresh Start Adjustments discussion below).

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

CO2 Properties

The fair value of CO2 properties includes the value of CO2 mineral rights and associated infrastructure and was determined using the discounted cash flow method under the income approach. After-tax cash flows were forecast based on expected costs to produce and transport CO2 as provided by management, and income was imputed using a gross-up of costs based on a five-year average historical EBITDA margin for publicly traded companies that primarily develop or produce natural gas. Cash flows were then discounted using a rate considering reduced risk associated with CO2 industrial sales.

Pipelines

The fair values of our pipelines were determined using a combination of the replacement cost method under the cost approach and the discounted cash flow method under the income approach. The replacement cost method considers historical acquisition costs for the assets adjusted for inflation, as well as factors in any potential obsolescence based on the current condition of the assets and the ability of those assets to generate cash flow. For assets valued using the discounted cash flow method, after-tax cash flows were forecast based on expected costs provided by management, and profits were imputed using a gross-up of costs based on a five-year average historical EBITDA margin for publicly traded companies that primarily transport natural gas. Pipeline depreciable lives represent the remaining estimated useful lives of the pipelines, which will be depreciated on a straight-line basis ranging from 20 to 43 years.

Other Property and Equipment

The fair value of the non-reserve related property and equipment such as land, buildings, equipment, leasehold improvements and software was determined using the replacement cost method under the cost approach which considers historical acquisition costs for the assets adjusted for inflation, as well as factors in any potential obsolescence based on the current condition of the assets and the ability of those assets to generate cash flow.

Long-Term CO2 Customer Contracts

The fair value of long-term CO2 customer contracts was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method (“MPEEM”) under the income approach. MPEEM attributes cash flow to a specific intangible asset based on residual cash flows from a set of assets generating revenues after accounting for appropriate returns on and of other assets contributing to that revenue generation. Cash flows were forecast based on expected changes in pricing, volumes, renewal rates, and costs using volumes and prices through and beyond the initial contract terms. After-tax cash flows were discounted using a rate considering reduced risk of these industrial contracts relative to overall oil and gas production risks. The contracts will be depreciated over a useful life of seven to 14 years.

Favorable and Unfavorable Vendor Contracts

We recognized both favorable and unfavorable contracts using the incremental value method under the income approach. The incremental value method calculates value on the basis of the pricing differential between historical contracted rates and estimated pricing that the Company would most likely receive if it entered into similar contract conditions (other than the price) as of the Emergence Date. The differential is applied to expected contract volumes, tax-affected and discounted at a discount rate consistent with the risk of the associated cash flows.
Asset Retirement Obligations

The fair value of the asset retirement obligations was revalued based upon estimated current reclamation costs for our assets with reclamation obligations, an appropriate long-term inflation adjustment, and our revised credit adjusted risk-free rate (“CARFR”). The new CARFR was based on an evaluation of similar industry peers with similar factors such as emergence, new capital structure and current rates for oil and gas companies.

Pipeline Financing Liabilities

The fair value of the pipeline financing liabilities was measured as the present value of the remaining payments under the restructured pipeline agreements (see Note 6, Long-Term DebtPipeline Financing Transactions, for further discussion).

Warrants

The fair values of the warrants issued upon the Emergence Date were estimated by applying a Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Black-Scholes-Merton model is a pricing model used to estimate the fair value of a European-style call or put option/warrant based on a current stock price, strike price, time to maturity, risk-free rate, annual volatility rate, and annual dividend yield.

The model used the following assumptions: implied stock price (total equity divided by total shares outstanding) of the Successor’s shares of common stock of $22.14; initial strike price per share of $32.59 and $35.41 for series A and B warrants, respectively; expected volatility of 49.3% and 53.6% for series A and B warrants, respectively; risk-free interest rates of 0.3% and 0.2% for series A and B warrants, respectively, using the United States Treasury Constant Maturity rates; and an expected annual dividend yield of 0%. Expected volatility was estimated using volatilities of similar entities whose share or option prices and assumptions were publicly available. The time to maturity of the warrants was based on the contractual terms of the warrants of five and three years for series A and series B warrants, respectively. The values were also adjusted for potential dilution impacts.

Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet

The following illustrates the effects on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet due to the reorganization and fresh start accounting adjustments. The explanatory notes following the table below provide further details on the adjustments, including the assumptions and methods used to determine fair value for its assets, liabilities, and warrants.

Note 3. Leases

We evaluate contracts for leasing arrangements at inception. We lease office space, equipment, and vehicles that have non-cancelable lease terms. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on our balance sheet. As part of the Chapter 11 Restructuring, the Predecessor elected to terminate some of its operating leases, primarily related to office space.

Lease costs for operating leases or leases with a term of 12 months or less are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset are recognized separately, with the depreciable life reflective of the expected lease term. The Predecessor previously subleased part of the office space included in its operating leases for which it received rental payments. Since those office space leases were terminated during the Chapter 11 Restructuring, the underlying sublease agreements were also terminated as of September 30, 2020.

The Predecessor did not record apool; therefore, 0 gain or loss was recorded on the transaction, and the sale of the properties in accordance with the full cost method of accounting.had no impact on our production or reserves.

Note 5.3. Revenue Recognition

We record revenue in accordance with FASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of FASC Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount of consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. Once we have delivered the volume of commodity to the delivery

point and the customer takes delivery and possession, we are entitled to payment and we invoice the customer for such delivered production. Payment under most oil and CO2 contracts is madereceived within a month following product delivery and for natural gas and NGL contracts payment is generally madereceived within two months following delivery. Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers; however, as the right to consideration after delivery is unconditional based on only the passage of time before payment of the consideration is due, upon delivery we record a receivable in “Accrued production receivable” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which was $74.3 million and $139.4 million as of September 30, 2020 (Successor) and December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), respectively.Sheets.

Revenues and expenses from these transactions are presented on a gross basis, as we act as a principal in the transaction by assuming control of the commodities purchased and the responsibility to deliver the commodities sold. Revenue is recognized when control transfers to the purchaser at the delivery point based on the price received from the purchaser.

The ultimate parent company in our corporate structure, Denbury Inc., is the sole issuer of all our outstanding obligations under our Successor Bank Credit Agreement. Denbury Inc. has no independent assets or operations. Each of the subsidiary guarantors of such obligations is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by Denbury Inc., and the guarantees of such obligations are full and unconditional and joint and several.

Prior to our emergence from bankruptcy, our debt consisted of the Predecessor’s Bank Credit Agreement, senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, senior subordinated notes, pipeline financings, and capital lease obligations. On the Emergence Date, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, all outstanding obligations under the senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, and senior subordinated notes were fully extinguished, relieving approximately $2.1 billion of debt by issuing equity and/or warrants in the Successor to the holders of that debt. See Note 1, Basis of PresentationEmergence from Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, for additional information.

Successor Senior Secured Bank Credit Agreement

In connection with our emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings on September 18, 2020,On the Emergence Date, we entered into a new credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and other lenders party thereto (the “Successor Bank“Bank Credit Agreement”). The Successor Bank Credit Agreement is a senior secured revolving credit facility with an initial borrowing base and lender commitments of $575 million. Additionally, under the Successor Bank Credit Agreement, letters of credit are available in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100 million, and short-term swingline loans are available in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25 million, each subject to the available commitments under the Successor Bank Credit Agreement. Availability under the Successor Bank Credit Agreement is subject to a borrowing base, which is redetermined semiannually on or around May 1 and November 1 of each year, with our next scheduled redetermination around MayNovember 1, 2021. The borrowing base is adjusted at the lenders’ discretion and is based, in part, upon external factors over which we have no control. The borrowing base is subject to a reduction by twenty-five percent (25%) of the principal amount of any unsecured or subordinated debt issued or incurred. The borrowing


27


Table of Contents
Denbury Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

base may also be reduced if we sell borrowing base properties and/or cancel commodity derivative positions with an aggregate value in excess of 5% of the then-effective borrowing base between redeterminations. If our outstanding debt under the Successor Bank Credit Agreement exceeds the then-effective borrowing base, we would be required to repay the excess amount over a period not to exceed six months. The Successor Bank Credit Agreement matures on January 30, 2024. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2021 under the Bank Credit Agreement was 4.0%. The undrawn portion of the aggregate lender commitments under the Bank Credit Agreement is subject to a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum.

The Successor Bank Credit Agreement prohibits us from paying dividends on our common stock through September 17, 2021. Commencing on September 18, 2021, we may pay dividends on our common stock or make other restricted payments in an amount not to exceed “Distributable Free Cash Flow”, but only if (1) no event of default or borrowing base deficiency exists; (2) our total leverage ratio is 2 to 1 or lower; and (3) availability under the Successor Bank Credit Agreement is at least 20%. The Successor Bank Credit Agreement also limits our ability to, among other things, incur and repay other indebtedness; grant liens; engage in certain mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; engage in sales of assets; make acquisitions and investments; make other restricted payments (including redeeming, repurchasing or retiring our common stock); and enter into commodity derivative agreements, in each case subject to customary exceptions.

A Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDAX covenant (as defined in the Bank Credit Agreement), with such ratio not to exceed 3.5 times; and
A requirement to maintain a current ratio (i.e., Consolidated Current Assets to Consolidated Current Liabilities) of 1.0 times.time.

For purposes of computing the current ratio per the Successor Bank Credit Agreement, Consolidated Current Assets exclude the current portion of derivative assets but include available borrowing capacity under that agreement,the Bank Credit Agreement, and Consolidated Current Liabilities exclude the current portion of derivative liabilities as well as the current portions of long-term indebtedness outstanding.

Pipeline Financing Transactions

On August 7, 2020,During the first half of 2021, Denbury paid $35.0 million to Genesis Energy, L.P. (“Genesis”) as the beneficiary, half of the $41.3 million letter of credit issued as “financial assurances” under the NEJD pipeline lease financing drew the full amount of such letter of credit in accordance with its terms as a result of the Predecessor’s Chapter 11 Restructuring, which resulted in a corresponding reduction to the principal balance outstanding. In late October 2020, we restructured our CO2 pipeline financing arrangements with Genesis, whereby (1) Denbury reacquired the NEJD pipeline system from Genesis in exchange forfour quarterly installments totaling $70 million to be paid in four equal payments during 2021 representing full settlementin accordance with the October 2020 restructuring of all remaining obligations under the financing arrangements of our NEJD secured financing lease;CO2 pipeline system. The third quarterly installment of $17.5 million was paid in July 2021, and (2) Denbury reacquired the Free State Pipeline from Genesis in exchange for a one-timefinal quarterly payment of $22.5$17.5 million is payable on October 30, 2020.31, 2021.

Predecessor Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility

From December 2014 through September 18, 2020, the Company maintained a senior secured revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and other lenders party thereto (the “Predecessor Bank Credit Agreement”).

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

All but a minor portion of the Predecessor Bank Credit Agreement was refinanced through the DIP Facility from August 4, 2020 through September 18, 2020, which was in turn refinanced by the Successor Bank Credit Agreement upon emergence from the Chapter 11 Restructuring.

Second Quarter 2020 Conversion of 6⅜% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024

During the second quarter of 2020, holders of $19.9 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Predecessor’s 6⅜% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 converted their notes into shares of the Predecessor’s common stock, at the rates specified in the indenture for the notes, resulting in the issuance of 7.4 million shares of Predecessor common stock upon conversion. The debt principal balance net of debt discounts totaling $13.9 million, was reclassified to “Paid-in capital in excess of par” and “Common stock” in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of the Predecessor upon the conversion of the notes into shares of Predecessor common stock.

First Quarter 2020 Repurchases of Senior Secured Notes

During March 2020, the Predecessor repurchased a total of $30.2 million aggregate principal amount of its 9% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2021 in open-market transactions for a total purchase price of $14.2 million, excluding accrued interest. In connection with these transactions, the Predecessor recognized a $19.0 million gain on debt extinguishment, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and future interest payable written off.

Note 7.5. Income Taxes

On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) to provide certain taxpayer relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act included several favorable provisions that impacted income taxes, primarily the modified rules on the deductibility of business interest expense for 2019 and 2020, a five-year carryback period for net operating losses generated after 2017 and before 2021, and the acceleration of refundable alternative minimum tax credits.

We evaluate our estimated annual effective income tax rate based on current and forecasted business results and enacted tax laws on a quarterly basis and apply this tax rate to our ordinary income or loss to calculate our estimated tax liability or benefit. Our income taxes are based on an estimated combined federal and state statutory rate of approximately 25% in 20202021 and 2019.2020. Our effective tax raterates for the Predecessor periodthree and six months ended September 18, 2020 differed from our estimated statutory rate, primarily due to the numerous tax impacts related to the emergence from the Chapter 11 Restructuring, including the reduction of tax attributes from the exclusion of cancellation of debt income according to Section 108 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, and the establishment of a valuation allowance of our federal and state deferred tax assets existing after fresh start accounting. For the Successor period ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020, our effective tax rate2021 (Successor) differed from our estimated statutory rate as a result ofthe deferred tax benefit generated from our operating losses were offset by a valuation allowance applied to our underlying federal and state deferred tax assets.

Note 8. Stockholders' Equity

Registration Rights Agreement

On the Emergence Date, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with former beneficial holders of the second lien notes of the Predecessor who entered into the RSA dated July 28, 2020, and that together with their affiliates received 4% or more of New Common Stock (including as a result of exercise of series A warrants of the Successor) pursuant to the Plan, or their affiliates.

Under the Registration Rights Agreement, Securityholders have customary demand and piggyback registration rights, subject to the limitations set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. As part of the offering registration rights, Securityholders have the right to demand the Company to effectuate the distribution of any or all of its Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) by means of an underwritten offering pursuant to an effective registration statement; provided, however, that the expected aggregate offering price is equal to or greater than $25.0 million or includes at least 20% of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities.

These registration rights are subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of shares to be included in an offering and the Company’s right to delay or withdraw a registration statement under certain circumstances. The Company will generally pay all registration expenses in connection with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, regardless of whether a registration statement is filed or becomes effective. The registration rights granted in the Registration Rights Agreement are subject to customary indemnification and contribution provisions, as well as customary restrictions such as blackout periods and, if an underwritten offering is contemplated, limitations on the number of shares to be included in the underwritten offering that may be imposed by the managing underwriter.

Note 9. Stock Compensation

2020 Compensation Adjustments

In response to the then ongoing significant economic and market uncertainty affecting the oil and gas industry, in June 2020 the Predecessor and its Board of Directors (the “Predecessor Board”) and Compensation Committee (the “Predecessor Compensation Committee”) conducted a comprehensive review of compensation programs across the organization. As a result of this review, the Predecessor Board and Predecessor Compensation Committee determined that its historic compensation structure and performance metrics would not be effective in motivating and incentivizing its workforce in the current environment. With the advice of its independent compensation consultant and its legal advisors, effective June 3, 2020, the Predecessor and the Predecessor Board implemented a revised compensation structure for all of the Predecessor’s employees (including its named executive officers) and non-employee directors. In connection with the revised compensation structure, the Company’s CEO voluntarily reduced his 2020 base annual salary by 20%, and the Company’s CEO and CFO voluntarily reduced 2020 targeted variable compensation by 35% and 20%, respectively. In addition, the Predecessor Chairman of the Board reduced his 2020 chairman retainer by 20%.

Under part of the revised compensation structure, which applies to a group of 21 of the Company’s executives (including our named executive officers) and senior managers, all outstanding equity awards and 2020 targeted variable cash-based compensation for those individuals were canceled and replaced with a cash retention incentive. In total, $15.2 million in cash retention incentives were prepaid to those employees in June 2020, with an obligation to repay up to 100% of the compensation (on an after-tax basis) if specified conditions are not satisfied. The Predecessor’s named executive officers’ cash retention incentive will be earned 50% based on their continued employment for a period of up to 12 months, and 50% based on achieving certain specified incentive metrics. In accordance with FASC Topic 718, CompensationStock Compensation, we accounted for the transaction involving equity compensation as an award modification and reclassified the awards from equity to liability awards. As a result of the modification of the awards, unrecognized compensation at the time of modification was determined to be $18.7 million ($4.1 million of incremental compensation expense, of which $3.4 million was expensed during the second quarter of 2020 and $0.7 million was expensed during the Predecessor period from July 1, 2020 through September 18, 2020), which was higher than the $15.2 million cash payment, and was calculated as the greater of (i) grant date fair value of the previously-outstanding awards plus incremental compensation (defined as cash paid related to the cash retention incentive in excess of the modification date fair value of the previously-existing awards) or (ii) cash paid for the cash retention incentive for each award. The value was recognized as total compensation expense for each award over the service period. We recognized $11.5 million of the $18.7 million as compensation expense in “General and administrative expenses” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the second quarter of 2020, and the remaining $7.2 million during the Predecessor period from July 1, 2020 through September 18, 2020. The accounting for the Predecessor’s remaining share-based compensation awards continued throughout the period covered by the Chapter 11 Restructuring, and upon cancellation of the awards, an additional $4.6 million of compensation expense was recognized during the Predecessor period ended September 18, 2020.

Note 10.6. Commodity Derivative Contracts

We do not apply hedge accounting treatment to our oil and natural gas derivative contracts; therefore, the changes in the fair values of these instruments are recognized in income in the period of change.  These fair value changes, along with the settlements of expired contracts, are shown under “Commodity derivatives expense (income)” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Historically, we have entered into various oil and natural gas derivative contracts to provide an economic hedge of our exposure to commodity price risk associated with anticipated future oil and natural gas production and to provide more certainty to our future cash flows. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Generally, these contracts have

consisted of various combinations of price floors, collars, three-way collars, fixed-price swaps, fixed-price swaps enhanced with a sold put, and basis swaps. The production that we hedge has varied from year to year depending on our levels of debt, financial strength and expectation of future commodity prices. UnderIn addition, our new senior secured bank credit facility entered into on the terms of our Successor Bank Credit Agreement, at any point in time within the initial measurement period of August 1,Emergence Date required that, by December 31, 2020, through July 31, 2021, we are required to have hedgescertain minimum commodity hedge levels in place covering a minimum of 65% of our anticipated crude oil production and 35% of our anticipated crude oil production for the second measurement period of August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2022. We have untilThe requirement is non-recurring, and we were in compliance with the hedging requirements as of December 31, 20202020.

We manage and control market and counterparty credit risk through established internal control procedures that are reviewed on an ongoing basis.  We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure to counterparties through formal credit policies, monitoring procedures and diversification, and all of our commodity derivative contracts are with parties that are lenders under our Successor Bank Credit Agreement (or affiliates of such lenders). As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, all of our outstanding derivative contracts were subject to enforceable master netting arrangements whereby payables on those contracts can be offset against receivables from separate derivative contracts with the same counterparty. It is our policy to classify derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis on our balance sheets, even if the contracts are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements.

The following table summarizes our commodity derivative contracts as of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, none of which are classified as hedging instruments in accordance with the FASC Derivatives and Hedging topic:

(2)A three-way collar is a costless collar contract combined with a sold put feature (at a lower price) with the same counterparty. The value received for the sold put is used to enhance the contracted floor and ceiling price of the related collar. At the contract settlement date, (1) if the index price is higher than the ceiling price, we pay the counterparty the difference between the index price and ceiling price for the contracted volumes, (2) if the index price is between the floor and ceiling price, no settlements occur, (3) if the index price is lower than the floor price but at or above the sold put price, the counterparty pays us the difference between the index price and the floor price for the contracted volumes and (4) if oil prices average less than the sold put price, our receipts on settlement would be limited to the difference between the floor price and the sold put price for the contracted volumes.

Note 11.7. Fair Value Measurements

The FASC Fair Value Measurement topic defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (often referred to as the “exit price”). We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable. We primarily apply the income approach for recurring fair value measurements


31


Table of Contents
Denbury Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

and endeavor to utilize the best available information. Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. We are able to classify fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The FASC establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded oil derivatives that are based on NYMEX and regional pricing other than NYMEX (e.g., Light Louisiana Sweet). Our costless collars and the sold put features of our three-way collars are valued using the Black-Scholes model, an industry standard option valuation model that takes into account inputs such as contractual prices for the underlying instruments, maturity, quoted forward prices for commodities, interest rates, volatility factors and credit worthiness, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term

14

of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value. As of December 31, 2019, instruments in this category included non-exchange-traded three-way collars that were based on regional pricing other than NYMEX (e.g., Light Louisiana Sweet). The valuation models utilized for three-way collars were consistent with the methodologies described above; however, the implied volatilities utilized in the valuation of Level 3 instruments were developed using a benchmark, which was considered a significant unobservable input.

We adjust the valuations from the valuation model for nonperformance risk, using our estimate of the counterparty’s credit quality for asset positions and our credit quality for liability positions. We use multiple sources of third-party credit data in determining counterparty nonperformance risk, including credit default swaps.

Instruments previously categorized as Level 3 included non-exchange-traded three-way collars that were based on regional pricing other than NYMEX, whereby the implied volatilities utilized were developed using a benchmark, which was considered a significant unobservable input. The transfers between Level 3 and Level 2 during the period generally relate to changes in the significant relevant observable and unobservable inputs that are available for the fair value measurements of such financial instruments.

Other Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of our loans under our Successor Bank Credit Agreement approximate fair value, as they are subject to short-term floating interest rates that approximate the rates available to us for those periods. We use a market approach to determine the fair value of our fixed-rate long-term debt using observable market data. The fair values of the Predecessor’s senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, and senior subordinated notes were based on quoted market prices, which are considered Level 1 measurements under the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the principal amount of our debt as of SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, excluding pipeline financing obligations, was $85.0$35.0 million and $1,833.1 million, respectively, which decrease is primarily the result of the cancellation of $2.1 billion principal amount of debt as part of the Chapter 11 Restructuring. See Note 1, Basis of PresentationEmergence from Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, for additional information.$70.0 million. We have other financial instruments consisting primarily of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Treasury

Chapter 11 Proceedings

On July 30, 2020, Denbury Resources Inc. and each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries filed for relief under Chapterchapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The chapter 11 cases were administered jointly under the caption “In re Denbury Resources Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33801”. On September 2, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Confirmation Order and on the Emergence Date, all of the conditions of the Plan were satisfied or waived and the Plan became effective and was implemented in accordance with its terms. On September 30, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court closed the chapter 11 cases of each of Denbury Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. The chapterOn April 23, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final decree closing the Chapter 11 case captioned “In re Denbury Resources Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33801” will remain pending until, so all of the final resolution of all outstanding claims.Chapter 11 cases have been closed.

Litigation

We are involved in various lawsuits, claims and regulatory proceedings incidental to our businesses.  We are also subject to audits for various taxes (income, sales and use, and severance) in the various states in which we operate, and from time to time receive assessments for potential taxes that we may owe. While we currently believe that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties.  We accrue for losses from litigation and claims if we determine that a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

Riley Ridge Helium Supply Contract Claim

As part of our 2010 and 2011 acquisitions of the Riley Ridge Unit and associated gas processing facility that was under construction, the Company assumed a 20-year helium supply contract under which we agreed to supply the helium separated from the full well stream by operation of the gas processing facility to a third-party purchaser, APMTG Helium, LLC (“APMTG”). The helium supply contract provides for the delivery of a minimum contracted quantity of helium, with liquidated damages payable if specified quantities of helium are not supplied in accordance with the terms of the contract. The liquidated damages are capped at an aggregate of $46.0 million over the term of the contract.

As the gas processing facility has been shut-in since mid-2014 due to significant technical issues, we have not been able to supply helium under the helium supply contract. In a case filed in November 2014 in the Ninth Judicial District Court of Sublette County, Wyoming, APMTG claimed multiple years of liquidated damages for non-delivery of volumes of helium specified under the helium supply contract. The Company claimed that its contractual obligations were excused by virtue of events that fall within the force majeure provisions in the helium supply contract.

On March 11, 2019, the trial court entered a final judgment that a force majeure condition did exist, but the Company’s performance was excused by the force majeure provisions of the contract for only a 35-day period in 2014, and as a result the Company should pay APMTG liquidated damages and interest thereon for those time periods from contract commencement to the close of evidence (November 29, 2017). The Company’s position continues to be that its contractual obligations have been and continue to be excused by events that fall within the force majeure provisions of the helium supply contract, so the Company has appealed the trial court’s ruling to the Wyoming Supreme Court. Oral arguments were heard by the Wyoming Supreme Court on August 13, 2020. We anticipate the Wyoming Supreme Court will enter its judgment on the appeal within the next few months; however, the outcome of the appeal is currently unpredictable.

Absent reversal of the trial court’s ruling on appeal, the Company anticipates total liquidated damages would equal the $46.0 million aggregate cap under the helium supply contract plus $6.7 million of associated costs (through September 30, 2020), for a total of $52.7 million, included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2020. The Company has a $32.8 million letter of credit posted as security in this case as part of the appeal process.

References to “Successor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company subsequent to September 18, 2020, and references to “Predecessor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company prior to, and including, September 18, 2020.

Our discussion and analysis includes forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties and should be read in conjunction with Risk Factors under Item 1A of this Form 10-Q as well as Item 1A of the Form 10-K, along with Forward-Looking Information at the end of this section for information on the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different than our forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Denbury is an independent oil and natural gasenergy company with operations focused in two key operating areas: the Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain regions. Our goalThe Company is to increase the value of our properties through a combination of exploitation, drilling and proven engineering extraction practices, with the most significant emphasis relating todifferentiated by its focus on CO2 enhanced oil recovery (“EOR”) and the emerging carbon capture, use, and storage (“CCUS”) industry, supported by the Company’s CO2 EOR technical and operational expertise and its extensive CO2 pipeline infrastructure. The utilization of captured industrial-sourced CO2 in EOR significantly reduces the carbon footprint of the oil that Denbury produces, underpinning the Company’s goal to fully offset its Scope 1, 2, and 3 CO2 emissions within this decade, primarily through increasing the amount of captured industrial-sourced CO2 used in its operations.

September 18, 2020 Emergence from Chapter 11 Restructuring. On July 30, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), Denbury Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries filed petitions for reorganization in a “prepackaged” voluntary bankruptcy (the “Chapter 11 Restructuring”) under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) under the caption “In re Denbury Resources Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33801”. On September 2, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) and approving the disclosure statement, and on September 18, 2020 (the “Emergence Date”), the Plan became effective in accordance with its terms and the Company emerged from Chapter 11. On September 18, 2020, Denbury filed the Third Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect a change of the Company’s corporate name from Denbury Resources Inc. to Denbury Inc. (the “Successor”), and on September 21, 2020, the Successor’s new common stock commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “DEN”. Key accomplishments of the Chapter 11 Restructuring include the following:

Eliminated approximately $2.1 billion of bond debt by issuing equity and/or warrants to the holders of that debt;
Significantly improved leverage ratios;
Reduced ongoing annual interest expense by approximately $165 million, significantly lowering our cash flow breakeven level;
Eliminated approximately $9 million from ongoing general and administrative expenses by terminating certain office leases and relocating our corporate headquarters; and
Established a new $575 million senior secured bank credit facility with $436.7 million of availability at September 30, 2020 after outstanding letters of credit.

For more information on the Chapter 11 Restructuring and related matters, refer to Note 1, Basis of PresentationEmergence from Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and Note 6, Long-Term Debt, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fresh Start Accounting. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, we met the criteria and were required to adopt fresh start accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification (“FASC”) Topic 852, Reorganizations, which on the Emergence Date resulted in a new entity, the Successor, for financial reporting purposes, with no beginning retained earnings or deficit as of the fresh start reporting date. References to “Successor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company subsequent to the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy on September 18, 2020, and references to “Predecessor” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company prior to, and including, September 18, 2020. In order to assist investors in understanding the comparability of our financial results for the applicable periods, we have provided certain comparative analysis on a combined basis, which management believes provides meaningful information to assist investors in understanding our financial results for the applicable period, but should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, independent results of the Predecessor and Successor periods for the quarter reported in accordance with GAAP.

Denbury Inc.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Fresh start accounting requires that new fair values be established for the Company’s assets, liabilities and equity as of the date of emergence from bankruptcy, September 18, 2020, and therefore certain values and operational results of the condensed consolidated financial statements subsequent to September 18, 2020 are not comparable to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements prior to, and including September 18, 2020, principally due to the Emergence Date re-evaluation of the fair value of our oil and natural gas properties, CO2 properties, and pipelines, together with the conversion of over $2 billion of previously outstanding debt into new common stock in the Successor. The reorganization value derived from the range of enterprise values associated with the Plan was allocated to the Company’s identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair values. The Emergence Date fair values of the Successor’s assets and liabilities differ materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheet of the Predecessor and may materially affect our results of operations in Successor reporting periods.

Oil Price Impact on Our Business.  Our financial results are significantly impacted by changes in oil prices, as 97% of our productionsales is oil. Changes in oil prices impact all aspects of our business; most notably our cash flows from operations, revenues, capital allocation and budgeting decisions, and oil and natural gas reserves volumes. The table below outlines changes in our realized oil prices, before and after commodity hedging impacts, for our most recent comparative periods:selected financial

Response to 2020 Oil Price Declines. In January and February 2020, NYMEX WTI oil prices averaged in the mid-$50s per Bbl range before a precipitous decline in early March 2020 due to the combination of the COVID-19 coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic and the failure of the group of oil producing nations known as OPEC+ to reach an agreement over proposed oil production cuts. Although OPEC+ subsequently agreed to reduced levels of production output, concerns about the ability of OPEC+ to maintain compliance with their reduced production targets and uncertainty about the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting economic consequences has resulted in abnormally high worldwide inventories of produced oil. While oil prices have improved from the low points experienced during the second quarter of 2020, the concerns and uncertainties around the balance of supply and demand for oil are expected to continue for some time.

17
The decrease in NYMEX oil prices that began in the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 has significantly reduced our cash flow. In response to these developments, we implemented the following operational and financial measures:

Reduced budgeted 2020 capital spending by $80 million, or 44%, to approximately $95 million to $105 million;
Deferred the Cedar Creek Anticline CO2 tertiary flood development project beyond 2020;
Implemented cost reduction measures including shutting down compressors, delayed uneconomic well repairs and workovers and reduced our workforce to better align with current and projected near-term needs;
Restructured approximately 50% of our three-way collars covering 14,500 barrels per day (“Bbls/d”) into fixed-price swaps for the second quarter through the fourth quarter of 2020 in order to increase downside oil price protection; and
Evaluated production economics at each field and shut-in production beginning in late March 2020 that was uneconomic to produce or repair based on then-prevailing oil prices.

Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results and Highlights. As a result of Denbury filing for bankruptcy and emerging from bankruptcy during the same quarter, our quarterly financial results are broken out between the predecessor period (July 1, 2020 through September 18, 2020) and the successor period (September 19, 2020 through September 30, 2020). For the predecessor period we recognized a net loss of $809.1 million, and for the successor period we recognized net income of $2.8 million. The primary drivers of our significant financial net loss for the predecessor period included the following:

Reorganization items, net, resulted in a $850.0 million charge during the predecessor period, primarily consisting of fresh start accounting adjustments of $1.9 billion to decrease the carrying value of our assets, partially offset by a gain on settlements

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results and Highlights. We recognized a net loss of $77.7 million, or $1.52 per diluted common share, during the new equity value in Denbury;second quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $697.5 million, or $1.41 per diluted common share, during the second quarter of 2020. The principal determinant of our comparative second quarter results between 2020 and
A $261.7 2021 was the $662.4 million full cost pool ceiling test write-down in the prior-year period. Additional drivers of the comparative operating results include the following:

Oil and natural gas revenues increased $173.3 million (158%), primarily due to an increase in commodity prices;
Commodity derivatives expense increased by $132.5 million consisting of a $109.0 million decrease in cash receipts upon contract settlements ($63.3 million in payments during the predecessorsecond quarter of 2021 compared to $45.6 million in receipts upon settlements during the second quarter of 2020) and a $23.5 million increase in the loss on noncash fair value changes;
A $28.9 million increase in lease operating expense, across nearly all expense categories, consisting of increases of $8.4 million in workovers, $4.4 million in CO2 expense, $3.7 million in power and fuel, and approximately $7.1 million due to the Wind River Basin acquisition in March 2021;
A $19.4 million reduction in net interest expense resulting from the full extinguishment of senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, and senior subordinated notes pursuant to the terms of the prepackaged joint plan of reorganization completed in September 2020;
A reduction in depletion, depreciation, and amortization expense of $19.0 million as a result of lower depletable costs due to the step down in book value resulting from fresh start accounting on the Emergence Date; and
An $8.3 million decrease in general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher expense in the prior-year period as a result of modifications in our compensation program during the decline in NYMEX oil prices.

On a comparative basis, we recognized net income of $72.9 million in the prior year third quarter. The following reflects some of the primary drivers for our change in operating results between the third quarter 2020, in aggregate, and the thirdsecond quarter of 2019:

Oil and natural gas revenues decreased by $117.8 million (40%), with 28% of2020 which resulted in adjustments to the decrease due to lower commodity prices and 12% ofbonus program for 2020, as well as certain severance-related costs recorded during the decrease due to lower production;
Lease operating expenses decreased by $46.7 million (40%), primarily due to lower expenses for workovers, CO2, power and fuel, and labor costs as well as a $15.4 million insurance recovery of costs incurred in 2013.

October 2020 Restructuring of CO2 Pipeline Agreements. In late October 2020, we restructured our CO2 pipeline financing arrangements with Genesis Energy, L.P. (“Genesis”), whereby (1) Denbury reacquired the NEJD pipeline system from Genesis in exchange for $70 million to be paid in four equal payments during 2021, representing full settlement of all remaining obligations under the NEJD secured financing lease; and (2) Denbury reacquired the Free State Pipeline from Genesis in exchange for a one-time payment of $22.5 million on October 30, 2020.

Delhi Insurance Receivable. During August 2020, we recorded insurance reimbursements totaling $16.1 million ($15.4 million net to Denbury’s interest) for previously-incurred well control costs, cleanup costs, and damages associated with a 2013 incident at Delhi Field. Denbury’s portion of the insurance recovery of $15.4 million was recorded as a reduction to lease operating expenses.

Houston Area Land Sales. We have been actively marketing for sale non-producing surface acreage primarily around the Houston area.  On July 24, 2020, we completed the sale of a portion of this acreage for gross proceeds of approximately $14 million, and completed the sale on an additional portion for gross proceeds of approximately $11 million on October 30, 2020. To date, we have closed acreage sales for total gross proceeds of approximately $45 million, and we currently have an additional $4 million under contract which is expected to close in the fourthsecond quarter of 2020.

First Quarter 2020 SaleJune 2021 Divestiture of Working InterestsHartzog Draw Deep Mineral Rights. On June 30, 2021, we closed the sale of undeveloped, unconventional deep mineral rights in Certain TexasHartzog Draw Field in Wyoming. The cash proceeds of $18 million were recorded to “Proved properties” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The proceeds reduced our full cost pool; therefore, no gain or loss was recorded on the transaction, and the sale had no impact on our production or reserves.

March 2021 Acquisition of Wyoming CO2 EOR Fields. On March 4, 2020,3, 2021, we closedacquired a farm-down transaction for the sale of half of our nearly 100% working interest positions(approximately 83% net revenue interest) in four southeast Texas oilthe Big Sand Draw and Beaver Creek EOR fields (consisting(collectively “Wind River Basin”) located in Wyoming from a subsidiary of Webster, Thompson, Manvel and East Hastings)Devon Energy Corporation for $40$10.7 million net cash (before final closing adjustments), including surface facilities and a carried interest46-mile CO2 transportation pipeline to the acquired fields. The acquisition agreement provides for us to make two contingent cash payments, one in ten wellsJanuary 2022 and one in January 2023, of $4 million each, conditioned on NYMEX WTI oil prices averaging at least $50 per Bbl during 2021 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the contingent consideration was recorded on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at its fair value of $7.0 million, a $1.7 million increase from the March 2021 acquisition date fair value. This $1.7 million increase was the result of higher NYMEX WTI oil prices and was recorded to “Other expenses” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Wind River Basin sales averaged approximately 2,750 BOE/d during the second quarter of 2021 and utilize 100% industrial-sourced CO2.

Carbon Capture, Use and Storage. CCUS is a process that captures CO2 from industrial sources and reuses it or stores the CO2 in geologic formations in order to prevent its release into the atmosphere. We utilize CO2 from industrial sources in our EOR operations, and our extensive CO2 pipeline infrastructure and operations, particularly in the Gulf Coast, are strategically located in close proximity to large sources of industrial emissions. We believe that the assets and technical expertise required for CCUS are highly aligned with our existing CO2 EOR operations, providing us with a significant advantage and opportunity to participate in the emerging CCUS industry, as the building of a permanent carbon sequestration business requires both time and capital to build assets such as those we own and have been operating for years. During the first half of 2021, approximately 34% of the CO2 utilized in our oil and gas operations was industrial-sourced CO2, and we anticipate this percentage could increase in the future as supportive U.S. government policy and public pressure on industrial CO2 emitters will provide strong incentives for these entities to capture their CO2 emissions. In an effort to proactively pursue these new CCUS opportunities, we are engaged in discussions with existing and potential third-party industrial CO2 emitters regarding transportation and storage solutions, while also identifying potential future sequestration sites and landowners of those locations. While EOR is the only CCUS operation reflected in our current and historical financial and operational results, and development of our permanent carbon sequestration business is likely to take several years, we believe Denbury is well positioned to leverage our existing CO2 pipeline infrastructure and EOR expertise to be drilled by the purchaser (the “Gulf Coast Working Interests Sale”).a leader in this industry.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Overview. Our primary sources of capital and liquidity are our cash flowflows from operations and availability under our Successorsenior secured bank credit facility. In 2020 our liquidity has been supplemented by $40 million of proceeds from our March 2020 sale of working interests in four southeast Texas fields and by $25 million of proceeds from sales of non-producing surface acreage primarily around the Houston area. Our most significant cash capital outlays in 2021 relate to our $250 million to $270 million of budgeted development capital expenditures and $70 million of pipeline financing obligations associated with the NEJD pipeline. Based on our current period operating expenses.2021 full-year projections using recent oil price futures, we currently expect that our cash flow from operations in 2021 will more than cover our budgeted development capital expenditures and also cover a significant portion of our pipeline financing obligations. In conjunction withaddition, we have sold certain non-producing assets that will further supplement our emergencecash flow from bankruptcy,operations.

As of June 30, 2021, we established a newhad $35 million of outstanding borrowings on our $575 million senior secured bank credit facility, under which we had $85 million borrowed as of September 30, 2020, leaving us with $436.7$517.7 million of borrowing base availability after consideration of $53.3$22.3 million of outstanding letters of credit. As discussedOur borrowing base availability, coupled with unrestricted cash of $13.6 million, provides us total liquidity of $531.3 million as of June 30, 2021, which is more than adequate to meet our currently planned operating and capital needs.

2021 Plans and Capital Budget. Considering the current oil price environment and strategic importance of the EOR CO2 flood at Cedar Creek Anticline (“CCA”), we announced in February 2021 our plans to move forward with development of this significant long-term project. We expect to spend approximately $150 million in 2021 on this CCA development, consisting of approximately $100 million dedicated to the 105-mile extension of the Greencore CO2 pipeline from Bell Creek to CCA, with the remainder dedicated to facilities, well work and field development at CCA. Based on our current plans, most of the capital spend for the pipeline extension to CCA will occur in the second half of 2021, with completion of the pipeline expected by the end of 2021, first COOverview2 above, NYMEXinjection planned during the first half of 2022, and first tertiary production expected in the second half of 2023. We currently anticipate that our full-year 2021 development capital spending, excluding capitalized interest and

19

acquisitions, will be in a range of $250 million to $270 million.  Our current 2021 capital budget, excluding capitalized interest and acquisitions, at the $260 million midpoint level is as follows:

$100 million for the 105-mile extension of the Greencore CO2 pipeline to CCA;
$50 million for CCA tertiary well work, facilities, and field development;
$50 million allocated for other tertiary oil field development;
$35 million allocated for non-tertiary oil field development; and
$25 million for other capital items such as capitalized internal acquisition, exploration and development costs and pre-production tertiary startup costs.

We currently anticipate 2021 average daily sales volumes to be between 47,500 BOE/d and 51,500 BOE/d, including the Big Sand Draw and Beaver Creek working interests acquisition which closed in early March 2021.

New Senior Secured Bank Credit Agreement. In connection with our emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings on September 18, 2020, we entered into a bank credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and other lenders party thereto (the “Bank Credit Agreement”). The Bank Credit Agreement is a senior secured revolving credit facility with an initiala maturity date of January 30, 2024. As part of our spring 2021 semiannual borrowing base redetermination, the borrowing base and lender commitments of $575 million. Additionally, under thefor our Bank Credit Agreement letters of credit are available in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100were reaffirmed at $575 million, and short-term swingline loans are available in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25 million, each subject to the available commitments under the Bank Credit Agreement.

under the Bank Credit Agreement is subject to a borrowing base, which is redetermined semiannually on or around May 1 and November 1 of each year, with our next scheduled redetermination around May 1,November 2021. The borrowing base is adjusted at the lenders’ discretion and is based, in part, upon external factors over which we have no control. The borrowing base is subject to a reduction by twenty-five percent (25%) of the principal amount of any unsecured or subordinated debt issued or incurred. The borrowing base may also be reduced if we sell borrowing base properties and/or cancel commodity derivative positions with an aggregate value in excess of 5% of the then-effective borrowing base between redeterminations. If our outstanding debt under the Bank Credit Agreement exceeds the then-effective borrowing base, we would be required to repay the excess amount over a

Commencing on September 18, 2021, we may pay dividends on our common stock or make other restricted payments in an amount not to exceed “Distributable Free Cash Flow”, but only if (1) no event of default or borrowing base deficiency exists; (2) our total leverage ratio is 2 to 1 or lower; and (3) availability under the Bank Credit Agreement is at least 20%. The Bank Credit Agreement also limits our ability to, among other things, incur and repay other indebtedness; grant liens; engage in certain mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; engage in sales of assets; make acquisitions and investments; make other restricted payments (including redeeming, repurchasing or retiring our common stock); and enter into commodity derivative agreements, in each case subject to customary exceptions.

The Bank Credit Agreement is secured by (1) our proved oil and natural gas properties, which are held through our restricted subsidiaries; (2) the pledge of equity interests of such subsidiaries; (3) a pledge of our commodity derivative agreements; (4) a pledge of deposit accounts, securities accounts and commodity accounts of Denbury Inc. and such subsidiaries (as applicable); and (5) a security interest in substantially all other collateral that may be perfected by a Uniform Commercial Code filing, subject to certain exceptions.

The Bank Credit Agreement contains certain financial performance covenants commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2020 through the maturity of the facility, including the following:

A Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDAX covenant (as defined in the Bank Credit Agreement), with such ratio not to exceed 3.5 times; and
A requirement to maintain a current ratio (i.e., Consolidated Current Assets to Consolidated Current Liabilities) of 1.0 times.time.

For purposes of computing the current ratio per the Bank Credit Agreement, Consolidated Current Assets exclude the current portion of derivative assets but include available borrowing capacity under that agreement,the Bank Credit Agreement, and Consolidated Current Liabilities exclude the current portion of derivative liabilities as well as the current portions of long-term indebtedness outstanding. Under these financial performance covenant calculations, as of June 30, 2021, our ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDAX was 0.18 to 1.0 (with a maximum permitted ratio of 3.5 to 1.0) and our current ratio was 3.00 to 1.0 (with a required ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0). Based upon our currently forecasted levels of production and costs, hedges in place as of August 4, 2021, and current oil commodity derivative futures prices, we currently anticipate continuing to be in compliance with our financial performance covenants during the foreseeable future.

The above description of our Bank Credit Agreement is qualified by the express language and defined terms contained in the Bank Credit Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to our Form 8-K Report filed with the SEC on September 18, 2020.

Capital Spending. We currently anticipate that our full-year 2020 capital spending, excluding capitalized interest and acquisitions, will be approximately $95 million to $105 million, approximately 78% of which has been incurred through 2020.  This 2020 capital expenditure budget reflects a reduction on March 31, 2020 of $80 million, or 44%, from the late-February 2020 estimate of between $175 million and $185 million in response to the more than 50% decline in NYMEX WTI prices during March 2020. Our current 2020 capital budget, excluding capitalized interest and acquisitions, provides for approximate spending as follows:

$35 million allocated for tertiary oil field expenditures;
$25 million allocated for other areas, primarily non-tertiary oil field expenditures including exploitation;
$10 million to be spent on CO2 sources and pipelines; and
$30 million for other capital items such as capitalized internal acquisition, exploration and development costs and pre-production tertiary startup costs.

Commitments and Obligations. We have numerous contractual commitments in the ordinary course of business including debt service requirements, operating and finance leases, purchase obligations, and asset retirement obligations. Our operating leases primarily consistsconsist of our office leases. Our purchase obligations represent future cash commitments primarily for purchase contracts for CO2 captured from industrial sources, CO2 processing fees, transportation agreements and well-related costs, but excludes any potential payments related to the APMTG litigation being appealed.costs.

Our commitments and obligations consist of those detailed as of December 31, 2019,2020, in our Form 10-K under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Capital Resources and Liquidity Commitments, Obligations and ObligationsOff-Balance Sheet Arrangements. Material changes toDuring the six months ended June 30, 2021, our contractual commitments since December 31, 2019 detailed in this Form 10-Q report include changes to our senior secured bank credit agreement, the cancellation of the Predecessor senior secured second lien notes, convertible senior notes, and senior subordinated notes pursuant to the Plan, and a $41.3long-term asset retirement obligations increased by $47.3 million, payment related to the NEJD pipeline lease financing during the third quarter of 2020. As part of the Chapter 11 Restructuring, we elected to terminate some of our operating leases, primarily related to office space, reducing our annual rent expense by approximately $9 million. In late October 2020, we reacquired the NEJD pipeline systemacquisition of working interest positions in Wyoming CO2 EOR fields (see Note 2, Acquisition and Free State Pipeline from Genesis, representing full settlement of all remaining pipeline financing obligations.Divestiture).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. Our off-balance sheet arrangements include obligations for various development and exploratory expenditures that arise from our normal capital expenditure program or from other transactions common to our industry, none of which are recorded on our balance sheet.  In addition, in order to recover our undeveloped proved reserves, we must also fund the associated future development costs estimated in our proved reserve reports.

The year-over-year decline was primarily impacted by (1) the carryover impact of exceptionally low levels of capital investment in 2020, significantly below levels required to hold production flat, (2) decreases at CCA due to the net profits interest of a third party, whereby increased oil prices have resulted in increased profitability and thus, lower reported sales volumes net to Denbury of approximately 625 BOE/d when compared to the second quarter of 2020, and (3) declines at Delhi Field due to lower CO2 purchases between late-February and late-October 2020 as a result of the Delta-Tinsley pipeline being down for repair. The year-over-year decline in sales volumes was partially offset by sales increases from our Wind River Basin enhanced oil recovery fields acquired on March 3, 2021.
Certain
Our sales volumes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were 97% oil, consistent with our 97% and 98% oil sales during the same prior-year periods.

Oil and Natural Gas Revenues

Our oil and natural gas revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 158% and 53%, respectively, compared to these revenues for the same periods in 2020.  The changes in our oil and natural gas revenues are due primarily to higher realized commodity prices (excluding any impact of our operating results and statistics for the comparative three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 are includedcommodity derivative contracts), offset somewhat by changes in sales volumes, as reflected in the following table:

Excluding any impact of our commodity derivative contracts, our average net realized commodity prices and NYMEX differentials were as follows during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:
(1)Barrel of oil equivalent using the ratio of one barrel of oil to six Mcf of natural gas (“BOE”).
(2)
See also Commodity Derivative Contracts below and Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk for information concerning our derivative transactions.
(3)Noncash fair value gains (losses) on commodity derivatives is a non-GAAP measure and is different from “Commodity derivatives expense (income)” in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in that the noncash fair value gains (losses) on commodity derivatives represent only the net changes between periods of the fair market values of commodity derivative positions, and exclude the impact of settlements on commodity derivatives during the period, which were receipts on settlements of $17.8 million and $88.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to receipts on settlements of $8.1 million and $14.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. We believe that noncash fair value gains (losses) on commodity derivatives is a useful supplemental disclosure to “Commodity derivatives expense (income)” in order to differentiate noncash fair market value adjustments from receipts or payments upon settlements on commodity derivatives during the period. This supplemental disclosure is widely

used within the industry and by securities analysts, banks and credit rating agencies in calculating EBITDA and in adjusting net income (loss) to present those measures on a comparative basis across companies, as well as to assess compliance with certain debt covenants. Noncash fair value gains (losses) on commodity derivatives is not a measure of financial or operating performance under GAAP, nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for “Commodity derivatives expense (income)” in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

production, which is adjusted for production from assets sold in the first quarter of 2020. Production during the second and third quarters of 2020 was impacted by approximately 4,300 BOE/d and 1,700 BOE/d, respectively, of production that was shut-in due to wells that were at that time uneconomic to produce or repair. In addition to shut-in production, the year-over-year production decline was primarily due to production declines at Delhi Field due to the lack of CO2 purchases since late-February 2020 as a result of the Delta-Tinsley CO2 pipeline being down for repair, reduced levels of workovers and capital investment due to lower oil prices and higher than normal declines resulting from such. Although we returned to production approximately 2,600 BOE/d of shut-in production between the second and third quarters of 2020, sequential quarterly production declined slightly for various reasons, including the following: continued production declines at Delhi Field due to the lack of CO2 purchases, the impact of downtime from hurricanes impacting the Gulf Coast, typical seasonal impacts on CO2 density due to higher temperatures, and a higher portion of production allocated to the net profits interest at our Cedar Creek Anticline Fields relative to the second quarter. In late October 2020, repairs to the Delta-Tinsley pipeline were completed and the pipeline was brought back into service, allowing CO2 purchases to resume at Delhi Field.

Our production during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 97% oil, slightly lower than our 98% oil production during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and consistent with oil production during the prior-year period.

Oil and Natural Gas Revenues

Our oil and natural gas revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased 40% and 44%, respectively, compared to these revenues for the same periods in 2019.  The changes in our oil and natural gas revenues are due to changes in production quantities and realized commodity prices (excluding any impact of our commodity derivative contracts), as reflected in the following table:

Prices received in a regional market fluctuate frequently and can differ from NYMEX pricing due to a variety of reasons, including supply and/or demand factors, crude oil quality, and location differentials.

Gulf Coast Region. Our average NYMEX oil differential in the Gulf Coast region was a negative $1.38 per Bbl during the third quarter of 2020,
Gulf Coast Region. Our average NYMEX oil differential in the Gulf Coast region was a negative $1.13 per Bbl during the second quarter of 2021, compared to a positive $3.11 per Bbl during the third quarter of 2019 and a negative $3.59 per Bbl during the second quarter of 2020. Generally, our Gulf Coast region differentials are positive to NYMEX and highly correlated to the changes in prices of Light Louisiana Sweet crude oil, though storage constraints and weak demand caused these differentials to weaken significantly during the second and third quarters of 2020.

Rocky Mountain Region. NYMEX oil differentials in the Rocky Mountain region averaged $2.03 per Bbl and $1.65 per Bbl below NYMEX during the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $4.68 per Bbl below NYMEX during the second quarter of 2020. Differentials in the Rocky Mountain region can fluctuate significantly on a month-to-month basis due to weather, refinery or transportation issues, and Canadian and U.S. crude oil price index volatility.

Our realized oil prices and differentials during 2020 have been significantly impacted by the rapid and precipitous drop in oil demand caused by the slowdown in economic activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This drop in oil demand worsened a deteriorated oil market which followed the early-March 2020 failure by the group of oil producing nations known as OPEC+ to reach an agreement over proposed oil production cuts. Although OPEC+ subsequently agreed to reduced levels of production output, concerns about the ability of OPEC+ to maintain compliance with their reduced production targets and uncertainty about the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting economic consequences has resulted in abnormally high worldwide inventories of produced oil. While oil prices have improved from the low points experienced during the second quarter of 2020 concerns and uncertainties arounda negative $1.37 per Bbl during the balancefirst quarter of supply2021. For both the first quarter of 2020 and for many years prior, our Gulf Coast region differentials were positive to NYMEX due to historically higher prices received for Gulf Coast crudes, such as Light Louisiana Sweet crude oil. As a result of the market disruptions, storage constraints and weak demand for oil are expected to continue for some time. While our oilcaused by the COVID-19 coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, these differentials have improved sinceweakened significantly during the second quarter of 2020 and have remained lower than historical values since April 2020.

Rocky Mountain Region. NYMEX oil prices are expecteddifferentials in the Rocky Mountain region averaged $1.59 per Bbl and $4.68 per Bbl below NYMEX during the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1.80 per Bbl below NYMEX during the first quarter of 2021. Differentials in the Rocky Mountain region tend to continuefluctuate with regional supply and demand trends and can fluctuate significantly on a month-to-month basis due to be volatile as a result of these events,weather, refinery or transportation issues, and as changes inCanadian and U.S. crude oil inventories, oil demand and economic performance are reported.price index volatility.

CO2 Revenues and Expenses

We sell CO2 produced from Jackson Dome to third-party industrial users at various contracted prices primarily under long-term contracts. We recognize the revenue received on these CO2 sales as “CO2 sales and transportation fees” with the corresponding costs recognized as “CO2 operating and discovery expenses” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Oil Marketing Revenues and Expenses

From time to time, we market third-party production for sale in exchange for a fee. We recognize the revenue received on these oil sales as “Oil marketing sales” and the expenses incurred to market and transport the oil as “Oil marketing expenses” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Based on current contracts in place and NYMEX oil futures prices as of November 12, 2020,August 4, 2021, which averaged approximately $40$68 per Bbl, we currently expect that we would receivemake cash payments of approximately $20$145 million upon settlement of our OctoberJuly through December 2020 contracts. Of this estimated2021 contracts, the amount the majority relates to our three-way collars,of which settlements are currently limited to the extent oil prices remain below the price of our sold puts. The weighted average differences between the floor and sold put prices of our 2020 three-way collars are $9.07 per Bbl and $8.83 per Bbl for NYMEX and LLS hedges, respectively. Settlements with respect to our fixed-price swaps areis primarily dependent upon fluctuations in future NYMEX oil prices in relation to the prices of our 20202021 fixed-price swaps which have a weighted average pricesNYMEX oil price of $40.52$43.69 per Bbl and $51.67 per Bbl for NYMEX and LLS hedges, respectively.Bbl. Changes in commodity prices, expiration of contracts, and new commodity contracts entered into cause fluctuations in the estimated fair value of our oil derivative contracts. Because we do not utilize hedge accounting for our commodity derivative contracts, the period-to-period changes in the fair value of these contracts, as outlined above, are recognized in our statements of operations.

Total lease operating expenses per BOE$24.65 $17.80 $22.01 $19.73 

Total lease operating expenses increased $28.9 million (36%) and $1.6 million (1%) on an absolute-dollar basis, or $6.85 (38%) and $2.28 (12%) on a per-BOE basis, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same prior-year periods. The increase during the second quarter of 2021 on an absolute-dollar basis compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to (a) higher expenses across nearly all expense categories as our costs are correlated to varying degrees with changes in oil prices, with the largest increases attributable to workovers ($8.4 million), CO2 expense ($4.4 million), and power and fuel ($3.7 million) and (b) 2020 period reduced spending and shut-in production in response to significantly lower oil prices in the second quarter of 2020. Lease operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2021 were further impacted by $7.1 million of expense related to the Wind River Basin acquisition in March 2021, as these properties have higher operating costs than our other fields. Lease operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were relatively flat with the same prior-year period as increased expenses resulting from our Wind River Basin acquisition in March 2021 and increases in workover and CO2 expense were largely offset by a $11.1 million reduction in power and fuel costs. The significant reduction in power and fuel costs was associated with the severe winter storm in February 2021 which created widespread power outages in Texas and disrupted the Company’s operations. Under certain of the Company’s power agreements the Company is compensated for its reduced power usage, which resulted in a benefit to the Company of approximately $16.3 million; as of June 30, 2021, $9.9 million of these savings were included in “Trade and other receivables, net” and $3.7 million included in “Other assets” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Compared to the first quarter of 2021, lease operating expenses in the most recent quarter increased $28.3 million (34%) on an absolute-dollar basis and $5.42 (28%) on a per-BOE basis, due primarily to the first quarter 2021 utility benefit mentioned above, the second quarter of 2021 reflecting a full quarter of operating expenses for the Wind River Basin properties acquired in March 2021, as well as increases in workover and CO2 expense.

Total lease operating expenses were $71.2 million, or $15.57 per BOE, for the combined Predecessor and Successor periods included within the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $117.9 million, or $22.70 per BOE, during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Total lease operating expenses were $261.8 million, or $18.39 per BOE, for the combined Predecessor and Successor periods included within the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $361.2 million, or $22.64 per BOE, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decreases on an absolute-dollar basis and per-BOE basis were primarily due to lower expenses across all expense categories, with the largest decreases in workover expense, labor, and power and fuel costs, as well as insurance reimbursements totaling $15.4 million recorded for previously-incurred well control costs, cleanup costs, and damages associated with a 2013 incident at Delhi Field. In response to the significant decline in oil prices in 2020, we reduced our capital budget and implemented cost reduction measures which included shutting down compressors and delaying well repairs and workovers that were uneconomic. Compared to the second quarter of 2020, lease operating expenses decreased $10.1 million on an absolute-dollar basis and $2.23 on a per-BOE basis, due to the insurance reimbursement mentioned above, partially offset by higher workover expense as we resumed some repairs and maintenance activity.

Currently, our CO2 expense comprises approximately 20% to 25% of our typical tertiary lease operating expenses, and consists of CO2 production expenses for the CO2 reserves we own, and consists of our purchase of CO2 from royalty and working interest owners and industrial sources for the CO2 reserves we do not own. During the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, approximately 46% and 55%, respectively, of the CO2 utilized in our CO2 floods consisted of CO2 owned and produced by us (our net revenue interest). The price we pay others for CO2 varies by source and is generally indexed to oil prices. When combining the production cost of the CO2 we own with what we pay third parties for CO2, our average cost of CO2 was approximately $0.37 per Mcf during the third quarter of 2020, including taxes paid on CO2 production but excluding depletion, depreciation and amortization of capital expended at our CO2 source fields and industrial sources. This per-Mcf CO2 cost during the third quarter of 2020 was consistent with the third quarter of 2019 and lower than the $0.39 per Mcf comparable measure during the second quarter of 2020 due to a lower utilization in our Gulf Coast operations of industrial-sourced CO2, which has a higher average cost than our naturally-occurring CO2 source.

Transportation and Marketing Expenses

Transportation and marketing expenses primarily consist of amounts incurred relating to the transportation, marketing, and processing of oil and natural gas production. Transportation and marketing expenses were $9.5$8.5 million and $9.4 million for the combined Predecessorthree months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $16.3 million and $19.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decreases between periods were primarily due to lower sales volumes.

Taxes Other Than Income

Taxes other than income includes production, ad valorem and franchise taxes. Taxes other than income increased $12.0 million (116%) and $11.3 million (38%) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same prior-year periods, due primarily to an increase in production taxes resulting from higher oil and natural gas revenues.

Our G&A expense on an absolute-dollar basis was $15.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $8.3 million (35%) from the same prior-year period, primarily due to modifications in our compensation program during the second quarter of 2020 which resulted in adjustments to the bonus program for 2020, as well as certain severance-related costs recorded during the second quarter of 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, our G&A expense increased $13.9 million (42%) primarily due to $15.3 million of stock-based compensation expense in the first quarter of 2021 resulting from the full vesting of performance-based equity awards with vesting parameters tied to the Company’s common stock trading prices. The shares underlying these awards are not currently outstanding as actual delivery of the shares is not scheduled to occur until after the end of the performance period, December 4, 2023.

Our net G&A expenses on an absolute-dollar basis were $16.7 million for the combined Predecessor and Successor periods included within the three months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.5 million (8%) from the three months ended September 30, 2019, and net G&A expenses on an absolute-dollar basis were $50.3 million for the combined Predecessor and Successor periods included within the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of $4.4 million (8%) from the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decreases in net G&A expenses during 2020 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, were primarily due to lower overall employee compensation and related costs due to reduced employee headcount, partially offset by lower G&A recoveries related to operator labor and overhead, and capitalized exploration and development costs which increased net G&A expense as a result of reductions in the number of employees, shut-in production and fewer producing wells in the current periods.

Full Cost Pool Ceiling Test Write-Downs


Under full cost accounting rules, we are required each quarter to perform a ceiling test calculation. Under these rules, the full cost ceiling value is calculated using the average first-day-of-the-month oil and natural gas price for each month during a 12-month rolling period prior to the end of a particular reporting period. The first-day-of-the-month oil prices for the preceding 12 months, after adjustments for market differentials by field, averaged $40.08 per Bbl as of September 18, 2020, $44.74 per Bbl as of June 30, 2020 and $55.17 per Bbl as of March 31, 2020. In addition, the first-day-of-the-month natural gas prices for the preceding 12 months, after adjustments for market differentials by field, averaged $1.72 per MMBtu as of September 18, 2020, $1.91 per MMBtu as of June 30, 2020 and $1.68 per MMBtu as of March 31, 2020. While representative oil prices at March 31, 2020 were roughly consistent with adjusted prices used to calculate the December 31, 2019 full cost ceiling value, the decline in NYMEX oil prices in late March 2020 due to OPEC supply pressures and a reduction in worldwide oil demand amid the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the impairment and transfer of $244.9 million of our unevaluated costs to the full cost amortization base during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Primarily as a result of adding these additional costs to the amortization base, weWe recognized a full cost pool ceiling test write-down of $72.5$14.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. In addition, as2021, with first-day-of-the-month NYMEX oil prices for the preceding 12 months averaging $36.40 per Bbl, after adjustments for market differentials and transportation expenses by field. The write-down was primarily a result of the precipitous decline inrecent acquisition (see OverviewMarch 2021 Acquisition of Wyoming CO2 EOR Fields) which was recorded based on a valuation that utilized NYMEX strip oil prices at the acquisition date, which were significantly higher than the average first-day-of-the-month NYMEX oil prices weused to value the cost ceiling. We also recognized additional full cost pool ceiling test write-downs of $662.4 million and $72.5 million during the Predecessor three months ended June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively. We did not record a ceiling test write-down during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $261.7 million during the period from July 1, 2020 through September 18, 2020.

Based upon fresh start accounting, oil and gas properties were recorded at fair value as of September 18, 2020. See Note 2, Fresh Start Accounting, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. There was no full cost pool ceiling test write-down for the period from September 19, 2020 through September 30, 2020.2021.

Impairment Assessment of Long-lived Assets

We test long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. These long-lived assets, which are not subject to our full cost pool ceiling test, are principally comprised of our capitalized CO2 properties and pipelines. Given the significant recent declines in NYMEX oil prices to approximately $20 per Bbl in late March 2020 due to OPEC supply pressures and a reduction in worldwide oil demand amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we performed a long-lived asset impairment test for our two long-lived asset groups (Gulf Coast region and Rocky Mountain region) as of March 31, 2020.

29
We perform our long-lived asset impairment test by comparing the net carrying costs of our two long-lived asset groups to the respective expected future undiscounted net cash flows that are supported by these long-lived assets which include production of our probable and possible oil and natural gas reserves. The portion of our capitalized CO2 costs related to CO2 reserves and CO2 pipelines that we estimate will be consumed in the process of producing our proved oil and natural gas reserves is included in the full cost pool ceiling test as a reduction to future net revenues.  The remaining net capitalized costs that are not included in the full cost pool ceiling test, and related intangible assets, are subject to long-lived asset impairment testing. These costs totaled approximately $1.3 billion as of March 31, 2020. If the undiscounted net cash flows are below the net carrying costs for an asset group, we must record an impairment loss by the amount, if any, that net carrying costs exceed the fair value of the long-lived asset group. The undiscounted net cash flows for our asset groups exceeded the net carrying costs; thus, step two of the impairment test was not required and no impairment was recorded.

Significant assumptions impacting expected future undiscounted net cash flows include projections of future oil and natural gas prices (management’s assumption of 2020 oil prices at strip pricing, gradually increasing to a long-term oil price of $65 per

We performed a qualitative assessment as of June 30, 2020 and September 18, 2020 and determined there were no material changes to our key cash flow assumptions and no triggering events since the analysis performed as of March 31, 2020; therefore, no impairment test was performed for the second quarter of 2020 or for the period ending September 18, 2020.

We evaluate our estimated annual effective income tax rate based on current and forecasted business results and enacted tax laws on a quarterly basis and apply this tax rate to our ordinary income or loss to calculate our estimated tax liability or benefit. Our income taxes are based on an estimated combined federal and state statutory rate of approximately 25% in 20202021 and 2019. As provided for under FASC 740-270-35-2, we determined the actual effective tax rate for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2020 through September 18, 2020 was the best estimate of our annual effective tax rate.2020. Our effective tax raterates for the Predecessor period wasSuccessor three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were significantly lower than our estimated statutory rate, primarily due to our overall deferred tax asset position and the establishment of a valuation allowance on our federaloffsetting those assets. As we had a pre-tax loss for the second quarter of 2021 and state deferredfirst half of 2021, the income tax assets after the application of fresh start accounting.

We have evaluated the impact of the Plan of Reorganization, includingbenefit resulting from these losses is fully offset by the change in control,valuation allowance, resulting from our emergence from bankruptcy. The cancellation of debt income (“CODI”) realized upon emergence is excludable from income but results in a reduction or elimination of available net operating loss carryforwards,essentially no tax credit carryforwards and tax basis in assets, in accordance with the attribute reduction and ordering rules of Section 108 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). The reduction in the Company’s tax attributes for excludable CODI does not occur until the last day of the Company’s tax year, December 31, 2020. Accordingly, the tax adjustments recorded in the Predecessor period represent our best estimate using all available information at September 30, 2020. Thus, the Company expects to fully reduce its federal net operating loss carryforwards, enhanced oil recovery credits, research and development tax credits, and a partial reduction of tax basis in assets. The final tax impacts of the bankruptcy emergence, as well as the Plan of Reorganization’s overall effect on the Company’s tax attributes will be refined based on the Company’s final financial position at December 31, 2020 as required under the Code. The Company is exploring an election under the ordering rules of the Code to first reduce tax basis in assets, followed by net operating losses and tax credits. The final tax impact on the Company’s tax attributes could change from the current estimates.provision.

As theThe tax basis of our assets, primarily our oil and gas properties, is in excess of thetheir carrying value, as adjusted in fresh start accounting, the Successor isaccounting; therefore, we are currently in a net deferred tax asset position. We evaluatedBased on all available evidence, both positive and negative, we continue to record a valuation allowance on our underlying deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021, as we believe our deferred tax assets in lightare not more-likely-than-not to be realized. We intend to maintain the valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all available evidence asor some portion of the balance sheet date, including the tax impacts of the Chapter 11 Restructuringallowances, which will largely be determined based on oil prices and the full reductionCompany’s ability to generate positive pre-tax income. A $1.2 million state deferred tax liability is recorded on the Successor balance sheet.

The current income tax benefits for the Predecessor six months ended June 30, 2020, represent amounts estimated to be receivable resulting from alternative minimum tax credits.

As of June 30, 2021, we had $0.6 million of alternative minimum tax credits, which under the Tax Cut and Jobs Act will be refunded in 2021 and are recorded as a receivable on the balance sheet. Our state net operating losses and tax credits and partial reduction of tax basisloss carryforwards expire in assets (collectively “tax attributes”).

loss position and the continued low oil price environment, we recorded a total valuation allowance of $129.4 million on our underlying deferred tax assets, consisting of $43.8 million on our federal deferred tax assets and $85.6 million on our state deferred tax assets as of September 18, 2020. Valuation allowances totaling $68.6 million and $13.5 million were recorded for our State of Louisiana and State of Mississippi deferred tax assets, respectively. A $3.8 million state deferred tax liability is recorded on the Successor balance sheet. For the Successor period, we continue to offset our deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance. Thus, the income tax expense associated with the Successor’s pre-tax book income was offset by a change in valuation allowance. As of September 30, 2020, we had no federal net operating loss carryforwards and state net operating loss carryforwards of $52.3 million, all of which were fully offset with the valuation allowance.

The current income tax benefits for the Predecessor period ended September 18, 2020 and for the three month period ended September 30, 2019 represent amounts estimated to be receivable resulting from alternative minimum tax credits and certain state tax obligations. We received our 2019 federal income tax refund of $9.5 million in late September 2020.

Commodity Derivative Contracts

We enter into oil derivative contracts to provide an economic hedge of our exposure to commodity price risk associated with anticipated future oil production and to provide more certainty to our future cash flows.  We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.  Generally, these contracts have consisted of various combinations of price floors, collars, three-way collars, fixed-price swaps, fixed-price swaps enhanced with a sold put, and basis swaps.  The production that we hedge has varied from year to year depending on our levels of debt, financial strength, and expectation of future commodity prices.  In addition, our new senior secured bank credit facility entered into on the Emergence Date required that, by December 31, 2020, we have certain minimum commodity hedge levels in place covering anticipated crude oil production through July 31, 2022. The requirement is non-recurring, and we were in compliance with the hedging requirements as of December 31, 2020. In order to provide a level of price protection to a portion of our oil production, we have hedged a portion of our estimated oil production through 2020 using both NYMEX and LLS fixed-price swaps and three-way collars and oil production in 2021 and the first half of 2022 using NYMEX fixed-price swaps.swaps and costless collars. Depending on market conditions, we may continue to add to our existing 2021 and 2022 hedges. See also Note 10,6, Commodity Derivative Contracts, and Note 117, Fair Value Measurements, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our commodity derivative contracts. Under the terms of our Successor senior secured bank credit facility, at any point in time within the initial measurement period of August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021, we are required to have hedges in place covering a minimum of 65% of our anticipated crude oil production for the first twelve calendar months and 35% of our anticipated crude oil production for the second twelve month period. We have until December 31, 2020 to enter into transactions for the initial measurement period to be in compliance.

All of the mark-to-market valuations used for our commodity derivatives are provided by external sources.  We manage and control market and counterparty credit risk through established internal control procedures that are reviewed on an ongoing basis.  We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure to counterparties through formal credit policies, monitoring procedures and diversification.  All of our commodity derivative contracts are with parties that are lenders under our senior secured bank credit facility (or affiliates of such lenders).  We have included an estimate of nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement of our commodity derivative contracts, which we have measured for nonperformance risk based upon credit default swaps or credit spreads.

For accounting purposes, we do not apply hedge accounting treatment to our commodity derivative contracts.  This means that any changes in the fair value of these commodity derivative contracts will be charged to earnings instead of charging the effective portion to other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion to earnings.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, our commodity derivative contracts were recorded at their fair value, which was a net assetliability of $21.6$245.4 million, an $18.4 million decrease from the $40.0 million net asset recorded at June 30, 2020, and an $18.0a $109.3 million increase from the $3.6$136.1 million net assetliability recorded at March 31, 2021, and a $186.6 million increase from the $58.8 million net liability recorded at December 31, 2019.2020.  These changes are primarily related to the expiration or early termination of commodity derivative contracts during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, new commodity derivative contracts entered into during 20202021 for future periods, and to the changes in oil futures prices between from period to period.

Commodity Derivative Sensitivity Analysis

Based on NYMEX and LLS crude oil futures prices as of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, and assuming both a 10% increase and decrease thereon, we would expect to receivemake payments on our crude oil derivative contracts outstanding at SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 as shown in the following table:
Receipt / (Payment)
In thousandsCrude Oil Derivative Contracts
Based on:
Futures prices as of June 30, 2021$(234,002)

Our commodity derivative contracts are used as an economic hedge of our exposure to commodity price risk associated with anticipated future production.  As a result, changes in receipts or payments of our commodity derivative contracts due to changes in commodity prices, as reflected in the above table, would be mostly offset by a corresponding increase or decrease in the cash receipts on sales of our oil production to which those commodity derivative contracts relate.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The information under Note 12,8, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In additionPlease refer to the risks identified below, carefully consider the risk factors under the caption “Risk Factors” under Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, together with all of the other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We recently emerged from bankruptcy, which could adversely affect our business and relationships.

It is possible that our having filed for bankruptcy and our recent emergence from the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings could adversely affect our business and relationships with customers, employees and suppliers. Due to uncertainties, many risks exist, including the following:

key suppliers could terminate their relationship or require financial assurances or enhanced performance;
the ability to renew existing contracts and compete for new business may be adversely affected;
the ability to attract, motivate and/or retain key executives and employees may be adversely affected;
employees may be distracted from performance of their duties or more easily attracted to other employment opportunities; and
competitors may take business away from us, and our ability to attract and retain customers may be negatively impacted.

The occurrence of one or more of these events could2020. There have abeen no material and adverse effect on our operations, financial condition and reputation. We cannot assure you that having been subject to bankruptcy protection will not adversely affect our operations in the future.

Our actual financial results after emergence from bankruptcy may not be comparablechanges to our historical financial information as a result of the implementation of the plan of reorganization and the transactions contemplated thereby and our adoption of fresh start accounting.

In connection with the disclosure statement we filed with the bankruptcy court, and the hearing to consider confirmation of the plan of reorganization, we prepared projected financial information to demonstrate to the bankruptcy court the feasibility of the plan of reorganization and our ability to continue operations upon our emergence from bankruptcy. Those projections were prepared solely for the purpose of the bankruptcy proceedings and have not been, and will not be, updated on an ongoing basis and should not be relied upon by investors. At the time they were prepared, the projections reflected numerous assumptions concerning our anticipated future performance and with respect to prevailing and anticipated market and economic conditions that were and remain beyond our control and that may not materialize. Projections are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and the assumptions underlying the projections and/or valuation estimates may prove to be wrong in material respects. Actual results will likely vary significantly from those contemplated by the projections. As a result, investors should not rely on these projections.

In addition, upon our emergence from bankruptcy, we adopted fresh start accounting. Accordingly, certain values and operational results of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements subsequent to September 18, 2020 are not comparable to those in its condensed consolidated financial statements prior to, and including September 18, 2020. The lack of comparable historical financial information may discourage investors from purchasing our common stock.

There is a limited trading market for our securities and the market price of our securities is subject to volatility.

Upon our emergence from bankruptcy, our old common stock was canceled and we issued new common stock. The market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to, and the level of trading that develops with our common stock may be affected by, numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include, among other things, our new capital structure as a result of the transactions contemplated by the plan of reorganization, our limited trading

history subsequent to our emergence from bankruptcy, our limited trading volume, the concentration of holdings of our common stock, the lack of comparable historical financial information due to our adoption of fresh start accounting, actual or anticipated variations in our operating results and cash flow, the nature and content of our earnings releases, announcements or events that impact our products, customers, competitors or markets, business conditions in our markets and the general state of the securities markets and the market for energy-related stocks, as well as general economic and market conditions and other factors that may affect our future results, including those described in this Report. No assurance can be given that an active market will develop for the common stock or as to the liquidity of the trading market for the common stock. The common stock may be traded only infrequently, and reliable market quotations may not be available. Holders of our common stock may experience difficulty in reselling, or an inability to sell, their shares. In addition, if an active trading market does not develop or is not maintained, significant sales of our common stock, or the expectation of these sales, could materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Upon our emergence from bankruptcy, the composition of our Board of Directors changed significantly.

Pursuant to the plan of reorganization, the composition of the Board changed significantly. Currently, the Board is made up of seven directors, four of whom have not previously served on the Board of the Company. The new directors have different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives from those individuals who previously served on the Board and, thus, may have different views on the issues that will determine the future of the Company. As a result, the future strategy and plans of the Company may differ materially from those of the past.

The continued COVID-19 pandemic, together with oil prices remaining at current levels, are likely to continue to negatively affect our cash flow.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread and evolve, both in the United States and abroad. Its ultimate impact on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and intensity of the pandemic, the actions to contain the disease or mitigate its impact, related restrictions on business activity and travel, and continued lower levels of domestic and global oil demand. The COVID-19 pandemic may also intensify the risks described in the other risk factors disclosedcontained in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

Prices in the oil market have remained depressed since March 2020. Oil prices are expected to continue to be volatile as a result of the near-term production instability, ongoing COVID-19 outbreaks, changes in oil inventories, industry demand and global and national economic performance.

As previously described in “Risk Factors” under Item 1A of our 2019 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2020, oil prices are the most important determinant of our operational and financial success. The reduction in our cash flows from operations since March 2020, and the possibility of a continued reduction in cash flows for an indeterminant period of time, impairs our ability to develop our properties to support our oil production and pay oilfield operating expenses. Secondarily, this level of reduced cash flow may require us to continue to shut-in uneconomic production.
