Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 1. ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization and Operations U.S. Energy Corp. (collectively with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Energy One LLC and New Horizon Resources, LLC, referred to as the “Company” in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) was incorporated in the State of Wyoming on January 26, 1966. The Company’s principal business activities are focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties in the United States. On January 5, 2022, the Company closed the acquisitions of certain oil and gas properties from three separate sellers, representing a diversified portfolio of primarily operated, producing, oil-weighted assets located across the Rockies, West Texas, Eagle Ford, and Mid-Continent see Note 16-Subsequent Events. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include oil and natural gas reserves that are used in the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of the carrying value of evaluated oil and natural gas properties; realizability of unevaluated properties; production and commodity price estimates used to record accrued oil and natural gas sales receivables; valuation of real estate assets held for sale; and the cost of future asset retirement obligations. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainties, including the future prices of oil and natural gas, these estimates could change in the near term and such changes could be material. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of U.S. Energy Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Energy One LLC (“Energy One”) and New Horizon Resources LLC (“New Horizon”). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Industry Segment and Geographic Information The Company operates in the exploration and production segment of the oil and gas industry, onshore in the United States. The Company reports as a single industry segment. Cash and Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Oil and Natural Gas Sales Receivable The Company’s oil and natural gas sales receivable consist of receivables from joint interest operators for the Company’s share of oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids (“NGLs”) sales and purchasers of the Company’s operated production, Generally, the Company’s oil and natural gas sales receivables from joint interest operators is collected within three months. The Company’s operated production is collected the month following production. The Company has had minimal bad debts related to oil and natural gas sales. Although diversified among several joint interest operators and first purchasers, collectability is dependent upon the financial wherewithal of each joint interest operator or first purchaser and is influenced by the general economic conditions of the industry. Receivables are not collateralized. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the Company had not provided an allowance for doubtful accounts on its oil and natural gas sales receivable. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company has exposure to credit risk in the event of nonpayment of oil and natural gas receivables by purchasers of the Company’s share of oil and natural gas production and its operated production. The following table presents the purchasers that accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s total oil and natural gas revenue for at least one of the periods presented: SCHEDULE OF CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Operator 2021 2020 Zavanna, LLC 34 % 41 % Infinity Hydrocarbons 30 % 6 % CML Exploration, LLC 10 % 25 % Concentration risk percentage 10 % 25 % Marketable Equity Securities Marketable equity securities are reported at fair value based on end of period quoted prices. Changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations at the end of each reporting period. Gains or losses from sales of marketable equity securities are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when realized. Oil and Natural Gas Properties The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties are capitalized and accumulated in a country-wide cost center. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to development and exploration activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Proceeds received from property disposals are credited against accumulated cost except when the sale represents a significant disposal of reserves, in which case a gain or loss is recognized. The sum of net capitalized costs and estimated future development and dismantlement costs for each cost center are subject to depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) using the equivalent unit-of-production method, based on total proved oil and natural gas reserves. For financial statement presentation, DD&A includes accretion expense related to asset retirement obligations. Excluded from amounts subject to DD&A are costs associated with unevaluated properties. Under the full cost method, net capitalized costs are limited to the lower of unamortized cost reduced by the related net deferred tax liability, or the cost center ceiling (the “Ceiling Test”). The cost center ceiling is defined as the sum of (i) estimated future net revenue, discounted at 10 Acquisitions The Company accounts for acquisitions as business combinations if the acquired assets meet the definition of a business. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar assets, the acquisition is not considered a business and is accounted for as an asset acquisition. This determination of whether the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a group of similar assets is based on whether the risks associated with managing and creating outputs from the assets are similar. Property and Equipment Land, buildings, and building improvements are classified as held for sale and are carried at the estimated realizable value, less costs to sell. Long-lived assets are classified as held for sale when the Company commits to a plan to sell the assets. Such assets are classified within current assets if there is reasonable certainty that the sale will take place within one year. Upon classification as held for sale, long-lived assets are no longer depreciated or depleted, and a measurement for impairment is performed to determine if there is any excess of carrying value over fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent changes to estimated fair value less the cost to sell will impact the measurement of assets held for sale if the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value of the assets. Administrative assets are carried at cost. Depreciation of administrative assets is provided principally by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows: SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT USEFUL LIFE Years Administrative assets: Computers and software 3 Office furniture and equipment 5 Autos and trucks 5 Other equipment 10 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. If estimated future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, are less than the carrying amount of the related asset, an asset impairment charge is recognized, and measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Changes in significant assumptions underlying future cash flow estimates may have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company periodically enters into commodity derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of its exposure to oil price volatility for its expected future oil production. The Company does not designate commodity derivative contracts as cash flow hedges, and therefore the contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in fair value of derivative contracts are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. The fair value of derivative contracts is recorded as either an asset or a liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Warrant Liability The Company has classified the warrants as liabilities due to provisions in the warrant agreement that precluded equity classification, including an option of the holder to receive the calculated fair value of the warrant from the Company in cash in the event of a “Fundamental Transaction,” as defined in the warrant agreement. Changes in fair value are reported each period in the consolidated statements of operations. Asset Retirement Obligations The Company records the estimated fair value of restoration and reclamation liabilities related to its oil and natural gas properties as of the date that the liability is incurred. The Company reviews the liability each quarter and determines if a change in estimate is required, and accretion of the discounted liability is recorded based on the passage of time. Final determinations are made during the fourth quarter of each year. The Company deducts any actual funds expended for restoration and reclamation during the quarter in which it occurs. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for all equity awards granted, including stock options, based on the fair value of the award as of the grant date. The Company computes the fair values of its options granted to employees using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company recognizes the cost of the equity awards over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Income Taxes The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets, liabilities and carry forwards. Additionally, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carry forwards and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits that, based on current circumstances, are not expected to be realized. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, management believed it was more likely than not that such tax benefits would not be realized and a valuation allowance has been provided. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance for the Company’s deferred tax assets, a significant item of negative evidence considered was the cumulative book loss over the three-year period ended December 31, 2021. The Company assesses its uncertain tax positions annually. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is probable that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that is probable of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted as appropriate for changes in facts and circumstances, such as significant amendments to existing tax law, new regulations or interpretations by the taxing authorities, new information obtained during a tax examination, or resolution of an examination. Earnings Per Share Basic net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, which includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities for this calculation consist of in-the-money outstanding stock options, warrants and restricted stock, and prior to the redemption of such preferred stock on December 31, 2020, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. When there is a loss from continuing operations, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and are excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) per share. The treasury stock method is used to measure the dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options. Recent Accounting Pronouncements There were no significant new accounting standards adopted or new accounting pronouncements issued that would have a potential effect on the Company of December 31, 2021. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
REVENUE RECOGNITION | REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from its non-operated interest in the sales of oil and natural gas production. The sales of oil and natural gas are made under contracts that operators of the wells have negotiated with third-party customers. The Company receives payment from the sale of oil and natural gas production between one to three months after delivery. At the end of each period when the performance obligation is satisfied, the variable consideration can be reasonably estimated and amounts due from customers are accrued in oil and natural gas sales receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. Variances between the Company’s estimated revenue and actual payments are recorded in the month the payment is received. Accordingly, the variable consideration is not constrained. For the properties in which the Company holds non-operated interest, the Company records its share of the revenues and expenses based upon the information provided by the operators within the revenue statements. The Company’s oil and natural gas production is typically sold at delivery points to various purchasers under contract terms that are common in the oil and natural gas industry. Regardless of the contract type, the terms of these contracts compensate the well operators for the value of the oil and natural gas at specified prices, and then the well operators remit payment to the Company for its share in the value of the oil and natural gas sold. During 2020, the Company acquired operated oil and gas producing properties (see Note 2- Acquisitions The Company does not disclose the values of unsatisfied performance obligations under its contracts with customers as it applies the practical exemption in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606. The exemption applies to variable consideration that is recognized as control of the product is transferred to the customer. Since each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations is not required. The Company reports revenue as the gross amount received from the well operators before taking into account production taxes and transportation costs. Production taxes are reported separately and transportation costs are included in lease operating expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The revenue and costs in the consolidated statements of operations were reported gross for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, as the gross amounts were known. The Company disaggregates revenues from its share of revenue from the sale of oil and natural gas and liquids by state. The Company’s revenues in its North Dakota, Texas, New Mexico and other states for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, are presented in the following table: SCHEDULE OF DISAGGREGATED REVENUE 2021 2020 Year Ended 2021 2020 (in thousands) Revenue: North Dakota Oil $ 2,538 $ 1,240 Natural gas and liquids 391 102 Total 2,929 1,342 Texas Oil 2,729 875 Natural gas and liquids 312 82 Total 3,041 957 New Mexico Oil 348 - Natural gas and liquids - - Total 348 - Other Oil 341 12 Natural gas and liquids (1 ) 19 Total 340 31 Combined Total $ 6,658 $ 2,330 Total revenue $ 6,658 $ 2,330 |

Asset Retirement Obligation Disclosure [Abstract] | |
ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS | 8. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS The Company has asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) associated with the future plugging and abandonment of developed oil and gas properties. Initially, the fair value of a liability for an ARO is recorded in the period in which the ARO is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is depleted over the life of the related asset. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, an adjustment to the full-cost pool is recognized. The Company had no assets that are restricted for the purpose of settling AROs. In the fair value calculation for the ARO there are numerous assumptions and judgments including the ultimate retirement cost, inflation factors, credit-adjusted risk-free discount rates, market risk premiums, timing of retirement and changes in legal, regulatory, environmental and political environments. To the extent future revisions to assumptions and judgments impact the present value of the existing ARO, a corresponding adjustment is made to the oil and natural gas property balance. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in the Company’s liabilities for asset retirement obligations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: SCHEDULE OF ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Balance, beginning of year $ 1,408 $ 819 Accretion 78 43 Sold/Plugged (70 ) (12 ) Acquired 45 558 Balance, end of year $ 1,461 $ 1,408 |

The Company settled the litigation in December 2021 by paying Mr. Veltri and his attorneys $ 750 375 427 APEG II Litigation From February 2019 until August 2020, the Company was involved in litigation with its former Chief Executive Officer, David Veltri, and at the time its largest shareholder, APEG II and APEG II’s general partner, APEG Energy II, GP (together with APEG II, “APEG”). In addition, Patrick E. Duke, a former director of the Company, had shared voting and shared investment power over APEG. The litigation arose as a result of a vote at the February 25, 2019 board of directors meeting to terminate Mr. Veltri for using Company funds outside of his authority and for other reasons (the “Texas Litigation”). In a separate lawsuit, APEG initiated a shareholder derivative action in Colorado against Mr. Veltri due to his refusal to recognize the Board’s decision to terminate him (the “Colorado Litigation”). The Company was named as a nominal defendant in the Colorado Litigation. The Colorado litigation was dismissed in May 2020 and the Texas Litigation was dismissed in August 2020.

The Company incurred net losses for each of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the Company has recorded valuation allowances for its net deferred tax assets for each of those years. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized a benefit for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. Income tax benefit using the Company’s effective income tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate due to the following: SCHEDULE OF EFFECTIVE INCOME TAX 2021 2020 (in thousands) Income tax benefit at federal statutory rate $ (372 ) $ (1,361 ) State income tax benefit, net of federal impact (25 ) (35 ) Change in state tax rate, net of federal benefit (1 ) (32 ) Change in value of warrant (16 ) 5 Percentage depletion carryover (50 ) (3 ) Prior year true up (14 ) 154 Other 2 (53 ) Increase in valuation allowance 476 1,283 Income tax expense (benefit) $ - $ (42 ) The components of deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES 2021 2020 (in thousands) Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryover (1) $ 6,295 $ 5,154 Property and equipment 3,115 3,939 Percentage depletion and contribution carryovers (1) 1,947 1,855 Alternative minimum tax credit carryover (1) - - Equity method investment and other 225 246 Deferred compensation liability 9 7 Asset retirement obligations 327 315 Stock-based compensation 190 115 Lease obligations 30 32 Total deferred tax assets 12,138 11,663 Deferred tax liabilities: Lease assets (27 ) (28 ) Total deferred tax liabilities (27 ) (28 ) Net deferred tax assets 12,111 11,635 Less valuation allowance (12,111 ) (11,635 ) Net deferred tax asset $ - $ - (1) In December 2017, the Company paid down debt through the issuance of common stock.

The losses will be subject to an Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382 limitation as a result the acquisition that closed on January 5, 2022 see Note 16-Subsequent Events. I.R.C. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code limits the Company’s ability to utilize the tax deductions associated with its oil and gas properties to offset taxable income in future years, due to the existence of a Net Unrealizable Built-In Loss (“NUBIL”) at the time of the change in control. Such a limitation will be effective for a five-year period subsequent to the change in control. In the event the Company has Recognized Built-In Losses (“RBIL”) during the five-year period, those losses will be limited; losses exceeding the annual limitation are carried forward as RBIL carryovers. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has approximately $ 10.8 The Company recognizes, measures, and discloses uncertain tax positions whereby tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold to be recognized.

The Company is subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions until the applicable statute of limitations expires. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for tax years prior to 2017. The Company is open for various state tax examinations for tax years 2016 and later. The Company’s policy is to recognize potential interest and penalties accrued related to uncertain tax positions within income tax expense. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalties in its statement of operations, nor did it have any interest or penalties accrued in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021 and 2020 related to uncertain tax positions. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
LOSS PER SHARE | 13. LOSS PER SHARE Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing adjusted net loss by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding, which includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities for this calculation consist of stock options and warrants, which are measured using the treasury stock method, the conversion feature of the Series A Preferred Stock prior to redemption, and unvested shares of restricted common stock. When the Company recognizes a net loss, as was the case for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and are consequently excluded from the calculation of dilutive net loss per common share. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and all shares and per share amounts have been adjusted for a one share-for-ten shares reverse stock split which took effect on January 6, 2020: SCHEDULE OF BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE 2021 2020 (in thousands except per share data) Net loss $ (1,770 ) $ (6,439 ) Dividend on series A preferred stock - (421 ) Gain on redemption of series A preferred stock - 441 Net loss applicable to common shareholders $ (1,770 ) $ (6,419 ) Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding 4,492 1,628 Dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities - - Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding 4,492 1,628 Basic net loss per share $ (0.39 ) $ (3.94 ) Diluted net loss per share $ (0.39 ) $ (3.94 ) For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares because they were anti-dilutive are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ANTI-DILUTIVE WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES 2021 2020 (in thousands) Stock options 31 31 Unvested shares of restricted stock 174 71 Warrants 50 50 Total 255 152 |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | 12 Months Ended |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | 14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Company’s fair value measurements are estimated pursuant to a fair value hierarchy that requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date, giving highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement in its entirety determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities and their placement within the hierarchy level. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are defined as: Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities inactive markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The Company has processes and controls in place to attempt to ensure that fair value is reasonably estimated. The Company performs due diligence procedures over third-party pricing service providers in order to support their use in the valuation process. Where market information is not available to support internal valuations, independent reviews of the valuations are performed, and any material exposures are evaluated through a management review process. While the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for complex financial instruments measured at fair value: Warrant Valuation Methodologies The warrants contain a dilutive issuance and other liability provisions that cause the warrants to be accounted for as a liability. Such warrant instruments are initially recorded and valued as a Level 3 liability and are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. There were no changes in the methodology to value the warrants during 2021. The Company estimated the value of the warrants at December 31, 2021 and 2020, with the following assumptions: SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE ASSUMPTIONS 2021 2020 Number of warrants outstanding 50,000 50,000 Expiration date June 21, 2022 June 21, 2022 Exercise price $ 3.92 $ 3.92 Stock price $ 3.27 $ 3.68 Dividend yield 0 % 0 % Average volatility rate (1) 66 % 120 % Probability of down-round event (2) 0 % 0 % Risk free interest rate 0.11 % 0.11 % (1) The average volatility represents the Company’s volatility measurement, the observed volatility of our peer group over a similar period, and the stock market volatility as of the valuation date. (2) Represents the estimated probability of a future down-round event during the remaining term of the warrants. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company used the average value calculated by the Black-Scholes model as opposed to a Monte Carlo model, because the strike price is set at the floor of $ 3.92 Marketable Equity Securities Valuation Methodologies The fair value of marketable equity securities is based on quoted market prices obtained from independent pricing services. The Company has an investment in the marketable equity securities of Anfield Energy (“Anfield”), which it acquired as consideration for sales of certain mining operations. Anfield is traded in an active market under the trading symbol AEC:TSXV and has been classified as Level 1.

See Note 8-Asset Retirement Obligations. Other Assets and Liabilities The Company evaluates the fair value on a non-recurring basis of properties acquired in business combinations. The fair value of the oil and gas properties is determined based upon estimated future discounted cash flow, a Level 3 input, using estimated production which we reasonably expect, and estimated prices adjusted for differentials. Unobservable inputs include estimated future oil and natural gas production, prices, operating and development costs, and a discount rate of 10 The Company evaluates the fair value on a non-recurring basis of its Riverton, Wyoming real estate assets when circumstances indicate that the value has been impaired. At December 31, 2021, the Company estimated the fair value of its real estate assets based on a market approach with comparison to recent comparable sales, all Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

Unevaluated oil and natural gas properties consisted of unproved lease acquisition costs and costs paid to evaluate potential acquisition prospects of $ 1.6 On a quarterly basis, management reviews market conditions and other changes in circumstances related to the Company’s unevaluated properties and transfers the costs to evaluated properties within the full cost pool as warranted. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company evaluated its unevaluated property and recorded a reclassification to the depletable base of the full cost pool of $ 2.1 Results of Operations from oil and natural gas producing activities Presented below are the results of operations from oil and natural gas producing activities for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: SCHEDULE OF OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES 2021 2020 (in thousands) Oil and natural gas sales $ 6,658 $ 2,330 Lease operating expense (2,421 ) (1,535 ) Production taxes (471 ) (168 ) Depletion and amortization (487 ) (356 ) Impairment of oil and natural gas properties - (2,943 ) Results of operations from oil and natural gas producing activities $ 3,279 $ (2,672 ) Oil and Natural Gas Reserves (Unaudited) Proved reserves are estimated quantities of oil, NGLs and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Oil and natural gas prices used are the average price during the 12-month period prior to the effective date of the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements. Proved developed reserves are reserves that can reasonably be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries and undeveloped locations are more imprecise than estimates of established producing oil and natural gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available. Proved oil and natural gas reserve quantities at December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the related discounted future net cash flows before income taxes are based on the estimates prepared by Don Jacks, PE. The estimates have been prepared in accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission. All of the Company’s estimated proved reserves are located in the United States. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the Company had no proved undeveloped reserves. All proved reserves were proved developed producing and proved developed non-producing. The Company’s estimated quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves and changes in net proved reserves are summarized below for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: SCHEDULE OF PROVED OIL AND GAS RESERVES AND CHANGES IN NET PROVED RESERVES (bbls) (mcfe) (1) (bbls) (mcfe) (1) 2021 2020 Oil Gas Oil Gas (bbls) (mcfe) (1) (bbls) (mcfe) (1) Total proved reserves: Reserve quantities, beginning of year 975,745 1,676,948 807,505 1,129,258 Revisions of previous estimates 128,232 437,757 (248,770 ) (22,895 ) Discoveries and extensions - - - - Purchases of minerals in place 11,365 - 477,479 686,670 Sale of minerals in place - - - - Production (93,722 ) (176,657 ) (60,469 ) (116,085 ) Reserve quantities, end of year 1,021,620 1,938,048 975,745 1,676,948 (1) Mcf equivalents (Mcfe) consist of natural gas reserves in mcf plus NGLs converted to mcf using a factor of 6 mcf for each barrel of NGL. Notable changes in proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2021 included the following: ● The upward revisions of previous estimates of 201,192 BOE were primarily attributable to revisions due to higher pricing used in the estimate of proved reserves at December 31, 2021. ● Purchases of minerals in place in 2021 represent reserves added as a result of the acquisition of one well in our Liberty County properties. Purchases of reserves in place in 2020 represent the reserves added as a result of the acquisitions of New Horizon Resources LLC, certain properties from FieldPoint Production Company, and certain properties from Newbridge Resources completed during the year. Standardized Measure (Unaudited) The Company computes a standardized measure of future net cash flows and changes therein relating to estimated proved reserves in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance. The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those prescribed by the FASB and the SEC. These assumptions do not necessarily reflect the Company’s expectations of actual revenues to be derived from those reserves, nor their present value amount. The limitations inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process, as discussed previously, are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations since these reserve quantity estimates are the basis for the valuation process. Future cash inflows and production and development costs are determined by applying prices and costs, including transportation, quality, and basis differentials, to the year-end estimated future reserve quantities. The following prices as adjusted for transportation, quality, and basis differentials were used in the calculation of the standardized measure: SCHEDULE OF PRICES AS ADJUSTED FOR TRANSPORTATION, QUALITY 2021 2020 Oil per Bbl $ 66.56 $ 39.57 Gas per Mcfe (1) $ 3.60 $ 1.99 (1) Consists of the weighted average price for natural gas in mcf plus NGLs converted to mcf using a factor of 6 mcf for each barrel of NGL. Future operating costs are determined based on estimates of expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves in place at the end of the period using year-end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. Estimated future income taxes are computed using the current statutory income tax rates, including consideration for estimated future statutory depletion. The resulting future net cash flows are reduced to present value amounts by applying a 10 The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves is as follows as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: SCHEDULE OF STANDARDIZED MEASURE OF DISCOUNTED FUTURE NET CASH FLOWS 2021 2020 (in thousands) Future cash inflows $ 76,041 $ 39,090 Future cash outflows: Production costs (40,350 ) (24,189 ) Development costs - (302 ) Income taxes (2,818 ) (142 ) Future net cash flows 32,873 14,457 10 (13,706 ) (5,871 ) Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows $ 19,167 $ 8,586 Changes in Standardized Measure (Unaudited) The changes in the standardized measure of future net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF STANDARDIZED MEASURE OF FUTURE NET CASH FLOWS 2021 2020 (in thousands) Standardized measure, beginning of year $ 8,586 $ 10,348 Sales of oil and natural gas, net of production costs (3,766 ) (627 ) Net changes in prices and production costs 11,675 (8,487 ) Changes in estimated future development costs 302 (302 ) Extensions and discoveries - - Purchases of minerals in place 216 5,841 Sale of minerals in place - - Revisions in previous quantity estimates 3,080 (1,148 ) Previously estimated development costs incurred (302 ) - Net changes in income taxes (1,389 ) 1,649 Accretion of discount 674 855 Changes in timing and other 91 457 Standardized measure, end of year $ 19,167 $ 8,586 |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On January 5, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), the Company closed the acquisitions contemplated by three separate Purchase and Sale Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”), entered into by the Company on October 4, 2021, with each of (a) Lubbock Energy Partners LLC (“Lubbock”); (b) Banner Oil & Gas, LLC, Woodford Petroleum, LLC and Llano Energy LLC (collectively, “Banner”), and (c) Synergy Offshore LLC (“Synergy”, and collectively with Lubbock and Banner, (the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Company acquired certain oil and gas properties from the Sellers, representing a diversified portfolio of primarily operated, producing, oil-weighted assets located across the Rockies, West Texas, Eagle Ford, and Mid-Continent. The acquisition also included certain wells, contracts, technical data, records, personal property and hydrocarbons associated with the acquired assets (collectively with the oil and gas properties acquired, the “Acquired Assets”). The purchase price for the Acquired Assets was (a) $ 125,000 in cash and 6,568,828 shares of our common stock, as to Lubbock; (b) $ 1,000,000 in cash, the assumption of $ 3.3 million of debt, and 6,790,524 shares of common stock, as well as the novation of certain hedges which had a mark to market loss of approximately $ 3.1 million as of the Closing Date, as to Banner; and (c) $ 125,000 in cash and 6,546,384 shares of common stock, as to Synergy. The aggregate purchase price under all the Purchase Agreements was $ 67.4 1.25 million in cash, the value of 19,905,736 shares of our common stock on the Closing Date of $ 64.7 1.4 3.3 million in debt, as well as a derivative liability from the novation of the hedges discussed above of $ 3.1 Each Purchase Agreement required the Company to place a $ 500,000 deposit into escrow ($ 1.5 million in aggregate) (the “Deposits”). The Deposits, included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021, were released on the Closing Date to pay a portion of the purchase price and closing adjustments for the Acquired Assets. The Company is currently evaluating certain accounting and valuation considerations for the Acquired Assets. Board of Directors On January 4, 2022, and effective as of the Closing on January 5, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) (i) increased the size of the Company’s Board of Directors from five members to seven members (with Javier F. Pico resigning from the Board effective immediately prior to Closing), and appointed (a) Mr. John A. Weinzierl, the Chief Executive Officer of Lubbock, who was designated by Lubbock, as a director and Chairman of the Company; (b) Mr. Joshua Batchelor, the Managing Partner of Sage Road Capital, LP, the owner of Banner, who was designated by Banner, as a director of the Company; and (c) Mr. Duane H. King, the Chief Executive Officer of Synergy, who was designated by Synergy, as a director of the Company. Credit agreement Separate from the Closing, but also effective on January 5, 2022, the Company entered into a five-year credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Firstbank Southwest (“Firstbank”) as administrative agent for one or more lenders (the “Lenders”), which provides for a revolving line of credit with an initial borrowing base of $ 15 million, and a maximum credit amount of $ 100 million. Under the Credit Agreement, revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed until January 5, 2026, when all outstanding amounts must be repaid. Interest on the outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement will accrue at an interest rate equal to (a) the greatest of (i) the prime rate in effect on such day, and (b) the Federal Funds rate in effect on such day (as determined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.50%, and an applicable margin that ranges between 0.25% to 1.25% depending on utilization of the amount of the borrowing base (the “Applicable Margin”). During the first six months of the term, the applicable margin will be 0.75% regardless of utilization . Accrued interest on each revolving loan is payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December. A commitment fee of 0.50 % accrues on the average daily amount of the unused portion of the borrowing base (as of March 22, $ 11,500,000 ) is payable in arrears on the last business day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the maturity date. The Company is also required to make certain mandatory repayments under the Credit Agreement, in the event the borrowing base decreases below the aggregate amount of loans made by the Lenders and/or if as of the last business day of any calendar month, certain required debt ratios required under the Credit Agreement are not met, there are outstanding amounts owed to the Lenders, and the Company has consolidated cash on hand in excess of $ 5 The Credit Agreement contains customary indemnification requirements, representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Loan Parties”). In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants, tested quarterly, that limit the Company’s ratio of total debt to EBITDAX (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to 3:1 and require its ratio of consolidated current assets to consolidated current liabilities (as each is described in the Credit Agreement) to remain at 1:1 or higher. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to hedge certain oil and gas volumes, based on utilization of the borrowing base, which hedging will be accomplished pursuant to the ISDA Master Agreement, discussed below. If any event of default occurs as defined in the Credit Agreement and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders may terminate their commitments, and may require the Company and its subsidiaries to repay outstanding debt and/or to provide a cash deposit as additional security for outstanding letters of credit. A total of $ 3.5 3.5 3.3 Intercreditor Agreement In connection with the Credit Agreement, Firstbank, as administrative agent for the Lenders and as collateral agent on behalf of all creditors, and Nextera Energy Marketing, LLC (“NextEra”), together with one or more future swap counterparties (“Swap Counterparties”) entered into an intercreditor agreement (“Intercreditor Agreement”), dated February 5, 2022, which was acknowledged by the Company. Under the Intercreditor Agreement, the parties agreed that the Loan Parties’ obligations under the Credit Agreement and their obligations to the Swap Counterparties in connection with certain acceptable swap agreements (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), and discussed below under “ISDA Master Agreement”, would be pari passu ISDA Master Agreement Separate from the Closing, but also effective on January 5, 2022, the Company and NextEra entered into an International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“Master Agreement”), facilitating the Company to enter into derivative and/or hedging transactions (“Transactions”) to manage the risk associated with its business relating to commodity prices. The derivative and hedging transactions will be governed by the Master Agreement, including the related Schedule to the ISDA Master Agreement (“Schedule”). The Company’s obligations to NextEra under the Master Agreement are secured by the collateral which secures the loans under the Credit Agreement on a pari passu and pro rata basis with the principal of such loans. The structure of the Transactions may include swaps, caps, floors, collars, locks, forwards and options. Certain events of default will apply to the Transactions under the ISDA Master Agreement and Schedule, including, but not limited to, failure to pay or deliver, breach of the agreement, credit support default, cross-defaults and misrepresentation. The Company’s entry into and the obligations of the Company under the Master Agreement and Schedule were required conditions to the Closing of the Banner Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company was required to assume and novate certain hedges of Banner which had a mark to market loss of approximately $ 3.1 SCHEDULES OF DERIVATIVE POSITIONS Collars Fixed Price Swaps Commodity/ Quantity Quantity Weighted Index/ Crude oil-(Bbks) Weighted Average Prices Crude oil-(Bbks) Average Maturity Period Natura lGas-(Mmbtu) Floors Ceilings Natural Gas (mmbtu) Price Crude Oil Nymex 2022 270,500 $ 59.54 $ 79.78 35,700 $ 49.99 2023 223,500 $ 59.33 $ 79.55 12,000 $ 59.20 Natural Gas Nymex 2022 40,000 $ 2.95 $ 3.33 180,000 $ 2.96 2023 60,000 $ 2.96 Transition Services Agreement On the Closing Date, the Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement (“TSA”) with Banner, for Banner to provide services in connection with the assets acquired from Banner (“Services”), including land and lease administration services; accounting services tax services; and other transition services and cooperation sufficient to enable the Company to set up its operations and assume the operation of the assets acquired from Banner. The transition services are to be provided to the Company on an independent contractor basis. The TSA will remain in place for six months (through June 30, 2022), extendable on a month-to-month basis thereafter at the Company’s request, subject to the terms of the agreement, and the Company will pay Banner $ 90,000 Exercise of Warrants On March 11, 2022, a holder of warrants exercised warrants to purchase 50,000 3.92 195 50,000 |

ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2021 | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization and Operations | Organization and Operations U.S. Energy Corp. (collectively with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Energy One LLC and New Horizon Resources, LLC, referred to as the “Company” in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) was incorporated in the State of Wyoming on January 26, 1966. The Company’s principal business activities are focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties in the United States. On January 5, 2022, the Company closed the acquisitions of certain oil and gas properties from three separate sellers, representing a diversified portfolio of primarily operated, producing, oil-weighted assets located across the Rockies, West Texas, Eagle Ford, and Mid-Continent see Note 16-Subsequent Events. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include oil and natural gas reserves that are used in the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of the carrying value of evaluated oil and natural gas properties; realizability of unevaluated properties; production and commodity price estimates used to record accrued oil and natural gas sales receivables; valuation of real estate assets held for sale; and the cost of future asset retirement obligations. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainties, including the future prices of oil and natural gas, these estimates could change in the near term and such changes could be material. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of U.S. Energy Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Energy One LLC (“Energy One”) and New Horizon Resources LLC (“New Horizon”). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Industry Segment and Geographic Information | Industry Segment and Geographic Information The Company operates in the exploration and production segment of the oil and gas industry, onshore in the United States. The Company reports as a single industry segment. |
Cash and Equivalents | Cash and Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. |
Oil and Natural Gas Sales Receivable | Oil and Natural Gas Sales Receivable The Company’s oil and natural gas sales receivable consist of receivables from joint interest operators for the Company’s share of oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids (“NGLs”) sales and purchasers of the Company’s operated production, Generally, the Company’s oil and natural gas sales receivables from joint interest operators is collected within three months. The Company’s operated production is collected the month following production. The Company has had minimal bad debts related to oil and natural gas sales. Although diversified among several joint interest operators and first purchasers, collectability is dependent upon the financial wherewithal of each joint interest operator or first purchaser and is influenced by the general economic conditions of the industry. Receivables are not collateralized. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the Company had not provided an allowance for doubtful accounts on its oil and natural gas sales receivable. |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk The Company has exposure to credit risk in the event of nonpayment of oil and natural gas receivables by purchasers of the Company’s share of oil and natural gas production and its operated production. The following table presents the purchasers that accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s total oil and natural gas revenue for at least one of the periods presented: SCHEDULE OF CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Operator 2021 2020 Zavanna, LLC 34 % 41 % Infinity Hydrocarbons 30 % 6 % CML Exploration, LLC 10 % 25 % Concentration risk percentage 10 % 25 % |
Marketable Equity Securities | Marketable Equity Securities Marketable equity securities are reported at fair value based on end of period quoted prices. Changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations at the end of each reporting period. Gains or losses from sales of marketable equity securities are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when realized. |
Oil and Natural Gas Properties | Oil and Natural Gas Properties The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties are capitalized and accumulated in a country-wide cost center. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to development and exploration activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Proceeds received from property disposals are credited against accumulated cost except when the sale represents a significant disposal of reserves, in which case a gain or loss is recognized. The sum of net capitalized costs and estimated future development and dismantlement costs for each cost center are subject to depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) using the equivalent unit-of-production method, based on total proved oil and natural gas reserves. For financial statement presentation, DD&A includes accretion expense related to asset retirement obligations. Excluded from amounts subject to DD&A are costs associated with unevaluated properties. Under the full cost method, net capitalized costs are limited to the lower of unamortized cost reduced by the related net deferred tax liability, or the cost center ceiling (the “Ceiling Test”). The cost center ceiling is defined as the sum of (i) estimated future net revenue, discounted at 10 |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions The Company accounts for acquisitions as business combinations if the acquired assets meet the definition of a business. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar assets, the acquisition is not considered a business and is accounted for as an asset acquisition. This determination of whether the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a group of similar assets is based on whether the risks associated with managing and creating outputs from the assets are similar. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Land, buildings, and building improvements are classified as held for sale and are carried at the estimated realizable value, less costs to sell. Long-lived assets are classified as held for sale when the Company commits to a plan to sell the assets. Such assets are classified within current assets if there is reasonable certainty that the sale will take place within one year. Upon classification as held for sale, long-lived assets are no longer depreciated or depleted, and a measurement for impairment is performed to determine if there is any excess of carrying value over fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent changes to estimated fair value less the cost to sell will impact the measurement of assets held for sale if the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value of the assets. Administrative assets are carried at cost. Depreciation of administrative assets is provided principally by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows: SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT USEFUL LIFE Years Administrative assets: Computers and software 3 Office furniture and equipment 5 Autos and trucks 5 Other equipment 10 |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. If estimated future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, are less than the carrying amount of the related asset, an asset impairment charge is recognized, and measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Changes in significant assumptions underlying future cash flow estimates may have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company periodically enters into commodity derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of its exposure to oil price volatility for its expected future oil production. The Company does not designate commodity derivative contracts as cash flow hedges, and therefore the contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in fair value of derivative contracts are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. The fair value of derivative contracts is recorded as either an asset or a liability on the consolidated balance sheet. |
Warrant Liability | Warrant Liability The Company has classified the warrants as liabilities due to provisions in the warrant agreement that precluded equity classification, including an option of the holder to receive the calculated fair value of the warrant from the Company in cash in the event of a “Fundamental Transaction,” as defined in the warrant agreement. Changes in fair value are reported each period in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Asset Retirement Obligations | Asset Retirement Obligations The Company records the estimated fair value of restoration and reclamation liabilities related to its oil and natural gas properties as of the date that the liability is incurred. The Company reviews the liability each quarter and determines if a change in estimate is required, and accretion of the discounted liability is recorded based on the passage of time. Final determinations are made during the fourth quarter of each year. The Company deducts any actual funds expended for restoration and reclamation during the quarter in which it occurs. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for all equity awards granted, including stock options, based on the fair value of the award as of the grant date. The Company computes the fair values of its options granted to employees using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company recognizes the cost of the equity awards over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets, liabilities and carry forwards. Additionally, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carry forwards and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits that, based on current circumstances, are not expected to be realized. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, management believed it was more likely than not that such tax benefits would not be realized and a valuation allowance has been provided. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance for the Company’s deferred tax assets, a significant item of negative evidence considered was the cumulative book loss over the three-year period ended December 31, 2021. The Company assesses its uncertain tax positions annually. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is probable that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that is probable of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted as appropriate for changes in facts and circumstances, such as significant amendments to existing tax law, new regulations or interpretations by the taxing authorities, new information obtained during a tax examination, or resolution of an examination. |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, which includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities for this calculation consist of in-the-money outstanding stock options, warrants and restricted stock, and prior to the redemption of such preferred stock on December 31, 2020, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. When there is a loss from continuing operations, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and are excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) per share. The treasury stock method is used to measure the dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements There were no significant new accounting standards adopted or new accounting pronouncements issued that would have a potential effect on the Company of December 31, 2021. |
