9. PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING
In March 2002, the Company commenced a Private Placement Offering of $10
million dollars consisting of 10,000 Units. Each Unit consists of (i) one (1)
share of Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A, of the Company (Preferred) and
(ii) a warrant to purchase up to 250 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share. Dividends accrue on the Preferred prior to the Mandatory Redemption Date
(as defined below) at the rate of 12% per annum payable quarterly in cash or, at
the option of the Company for a period not to exceed two (2) years from the
Closing Date, payable in whole or in part in additional shares of the Preferred
based on the Liquidation Preference (as defined below) of the Preferred at the
rate of 15% per annum. No other dividends shall be declared or shall accrue on
the Preferred. To the extent funds are legally available, the Company is
obligated to declare and pay the dividends on the Preferred. The Warrants have
a term of ten (10) years and an exercise price of $4.00. The Company is
required to redeem the Preferred on the fifth anniversary of the first issuance
and the Company may at its sole option, choose to redeem the Preferred at any
time before the expiration of the five years.
Two-thirds of the Preferred Stockholders can affect any Company action,
which would effect their preference position. The Preferred cannot be sold or
transferred by its holders and the Company must use its best efforts to register
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") the common stock issued in
connection with the exercise of the Warrants or, if possible, piggyback the
12

issued common stock if the Company participates in a public offering with the
SEC.
The Offering was made available to stockholders and affiliates of the
Company as of December 31, 2001 who were known to be accredited investors by the
Company. Purchasers were able to participate up to their pro rata share of
ownership in the Company as of December 31, 2001. The Offering's initial closing
began March 29, 2002 and continued until April 15, 2002, with a total
subscription of $9,292,000 or 9,291.85 units.
On March 29, 2002, Gulfport Funding, LLC, participated in the Offering
through a conversion of its $3.0 million dollar loan along with the accumulated
interest due from the Company for 3,262.98 units. Additionally, on March 29,
2002 entities controlled by the majority shareholder initially funded a share of
the Preferred Offering in the amount of $2,738,000.
10. DIVIDENDS ON SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK
As discussed in Note 9, the Company may, at its option, accrue additional
shares of Preferred for the payment of dividends at a rate of 15% per annum
rather than accrue cash dividends at a rate of 12% per annum during the initial
two years following the closing date of its Offering. The Company has chosen to
do such for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 and has therefore issued
additional shares totaling $700,000 at June 30, 2003 related to the Preferred
Stock Series A shares issued and outstanding during that time period. These
dividends were calculated based upon the Preferred's $1,000 per share redemptive
value and are reflected as "Series A preferred stock" in the accompanying
balance sheet.
11. NEW ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No.
143"), which requires the Company to record a liability equal to the fair value
of the estimated cost to retire an asset. The asset retirement liability is
recorded in the period in which the obligation meets the definition of a
liability, which is generally when the asset is placed into service. When the
liability is initially recorded, the Company will increase the carrying amount
of the related long-lived asset by an amount equal to the original liability.
The liability is accreted to its present value each period, and the capitalized
cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related long-lived asset. Any
difference between costs incurred upon settlement of an asset retirement
obligation and the recorded liability will be recognized as a gain or loss in
the Company's earnings. The asset retirement obligation is based on a number of
assumptions requiring professional judgment. The Company cannot predict the
type of revisions to these assumptions that will be required in future periods
due to the availability of additional information, including prices for oil
field services, technological changes, governmental requirements and other
factors. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 143, the Company recorded a net benefit of
$.27 million as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The
non-cash transition adjustment increased oil and natural gas properties and
asset retirement obligations by $7.59 million and $7.37 million, respectively,
and decreased accumulated depreciation by $.05 million.

GULFPORT ENERGY CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The asset retirement obligation recognized by the Company at June 30, 2003,
relates to the estimated costs to dismantle and abandon its investment in
producing oil and gas properties and the related facilities. Of the total asset
retirement liability, $480,000 that has been classified as short-term is the
estimated portion of the total liability to be settled during the next year as
the Company meets its plugging and abandonment requirements as discussed in Note
8.
The pro forma asset retirement obligations as of January 1, 2002, March 31,
2002, and June 30, 2002 were $7.05 million, $7.13 million, and $7.21 million
respectively. Pro forma net income for the period June 30, 2002, assuming SFAS
No. 143 had been applied retroactively, is shown in the following table:

SFAS No. 150
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity."
SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures
certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and
equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is
within its scope as a liability (or as an asset in some circumstances). Many of
those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is
generally effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May
31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the
effects of adopting SFAS No. 150 as it relates to the Private Placement Offering
the Company completed during March 2002.

Overview
Gulfport is an independent oil and gas exploration and production company
with properties located in the Louisiana Gulf Coast. Gulfport has a market
enterprise value (the Company's diluted shares multiplied by the trading price
plus long-term debt less cash and short-term investments on a given day) of
approximately $38.1 million dollars on August 4, 2003 and generated EBITDA
(earnings before interest, taxes and depletion, depreciation and amortization)
of $3.9 million and $2.2 million dollars for the six months ended June 30, 2003
and June 30, 2002, respectively.
As of January 1, 2003, the Company had in excess of 26.1 MMBOE proved
reserves with a present value (discounted at 10%) of estimated future net
reserves of $245 million dollars.
15
Gulfport is actively pursuing further development of its properties in
order to fully exploit its reserves. The Company has a substantial portfolio of
low risk developmental projects for the next several years providing the
opportunity to increase production and cash flow. Gulfport's developmental
program is designed to reach the Company's high impact, higher potential rate of
return prospects through the penetration of several producing horizons.
Additionally, Gulfport owns 3-D seismic data, which along with the
Company's technical expertise, will be used to identify exploratory prospects
and test undrilled fault blocks in its existing fields.
The Company's operations are concentrated in two fields: West Cote Blanche
Bay and the Hackberry Fields. In addition, during the first quarter of 2002,
the Company backed in to a working interest in the Bayou Penchant, Bayou Pigeon,
Deer Island and Golden Meadow fields operated by Castex Energy.
West Cote Blanche Bay
Background
West Cote Blanche Bay ("WCBB") Field lies approximately five miles off the
coast of Louisiana primarily in St. Mary's Parish in a shallow bay, with water
depths averaging eight to ten feet. WCBB overlies one of the largest salt dome
structures in the Gulf Coast. The field is characterized by a piercement salt
dome, which created traps from the Pleistocene through the Miocene. The
relative movements affected deposition and created a complex system of fault
traps. The compensating fault sets generally trend NW-SE and are intersected by
sets having a major radial component. Later-stage movement caused extension
over the dome and a large graben system (a downthrown area bounded by normal
faults) was formed. There are over 100 distinct sandstone reservoirs recognized
throughout most of the field and nearly 200 major and minor discrete intervals
have been tested. Within almost 900 wellbores that have been drilled to date in
the field, over 4,000 potential zones have been penetrated. The sands are
highly porous and permeable reservoirs primarily with a strong water drive.
WCCB is a structurally and stratigraphically complex field. All of the PUD
locations at WCBB are adjacent to faults and abut at least one fault. Gulfport's
Proved Undeveloped (PUD) drilling program is designed to penetrate each PUD trap
with a new wellbore in a structurally optimum position, usually very close to
the fault seal. The majority of these wells are directionally drilled using
steering tools and downhole motors. The tolerance for error in getting near the
fault is low, so the complex faulting does introduce a risk factor of crossing
the fault before encountering the zone of interest, which could result in part
or all of the zone being absent in the borehole. This in turn can result in
lower than expected or zero reserves for that zone. The new wellbores eliminate
the mechanical risk associated with trying to produce the zone from an old
existing wellbore, while the wellbore locations are situated so as to more
efficiently drain each reservoir. The vast majority of the PUD targets are
up-dip offsets to wells which produced from a sub-optimum position within a
particular zone. Gulfport's current PUD drilling schedule calls for the
drilling of 171 wells, starting in 2003 with 18 wells and continuing through
2011. All costs for the directional drilling has been figured into the overall
well cost budget.
As of June 30, 2003, there have been 880 wells drilled at WCBB, and of
these 43 are currently producing, 294 are shut-in and 5 are utilized as salt
16
water disposal wells. The balance of the wells (or 538) have been plugged and
abandoned.
Activity for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2003
Gulfport commenced a seven well drilling program at West Cote Blanche Bay
on April 20, 2003 resulting in six successful completions and one dry hole.
These wells had total depths ranging from 2,500' to 6,800' and most wells tested
multiple zones. The six successful completions encountered a total of 467 feet
of net pay and 30 productive zones. The six successful completions had initial
daily total gross production of 354 barrels of oil, 186 mcf of gas and 90
barrels of water.
Through the month ended June 30, 2003, Gulfport recompleted two wells at
West Cote Blanche Bay Field that yielded initial total gross production of 23
barrels of oil and 287 barrels of water.
During June 2003, Gulfport's net daily production in this field averaged
1,538 barrels of oil.
Future Activity
In July 2003, Gulfport was notified by a subsidiary of Shell Western
Exploration and Production, Inc. ("Shell") that the Shell pipeline that
transported the oil from the production facility at West Cote Blanche Bay to the
purchaser was being deactivated. Currently, the Company is using a barge to
transport the oil production to the purchaser and is in the process of
researching other more permanent options.
Gulfport has received regulatory approval to drill seven new wells at West
Cote Blanche Bay and anticipates commencing drilling activity during the fourth
quarter of 2003. These wells will have total depths ranging from 2,500' to
6300'. The Company also plans on performing at least four recompletions and six
workovers during the third quarter of 2003 at West Cote Blanche Bay. Gulfport
has recently received regulatory approval to convert an existing inactive well
to a salt-water disposal well and plans to commence the work before the end of
2003.
Hackberry Fields
Background
The Hackberry fields are located along the shore of Lake Calcasieu in
Cameron Parish, Louisiana. The Hackberry Field is a major salt intrusive
feature, elliptical in shape as opposed to a classic "dome," divided into East
and West field entities by a saddle. Structurally, Gulfport's East Hackberry
acreage is located on the eastern end of the Hackberry salt ridge. There are
over 30 pay zones at this field. The salt intrusion formed a series of
structurally complex and steeply dipping fault blocks in the Lower Miocene and
Oligocene age rocks. These fault blocks serve as traps for hydrocarbon
accumulation. Gulfport's wells currently produce from perforations found between
5,100' and 12,200'.
The East Hackberry field was discovered in 1926 by Gulf Oil Company (now
Chevron Corporation) by a gravitational anomaly survey. The massive shallow salt
stock presented an easily recognizable gravity anomaly indicating a productive
field. Initial production began in 1927 and has continued to the present. The
17
estimated cumulative oil and condensate production through 1999 was 111 million
barrels of oil with casinghead gas production being 60 billion cubic feet of
gas. There have been a total of 170 wells drilled on Gulfport's portion of the
field with 13 having current daily production; 6 produce intermittently; 71
wells are shut-in and 4 wells have been converted to salt water disposal wells.
The remaining 76 wells have been plugged and abandoned.
At West Hackberry, the first discovery well was drilled in 1938 and was
developed by Superior Oil Company (now Exxon-Mobil Corporation) between 1938 and
1988. The estimated cumulative oil and condensate production through 2000 was
170 million barrels of oil with casinghead gas production of 120 billion cubic
feet of gas. There have been 36 wells drilled to date on Gulfport's portion of
West Hackberry and currently 1 is producing, 26 are shut-in and 1 well has been
converted to a saltwater disposal well. The remaining 8 wells have been plugged
and abandoned.
Activity for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2003
At East Hackberry, during the three months ended June 30, 2003 Gulfport
worked over two wells at the State Lease 50 portion of East Hackberry and
performed maintenance on the production facility at East Hackberry.
Total net production per day for both Hackberry fields was 265 barrels of
oil for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003.
Future Activity
Gulfport has received regulatory approval and plans to drill a new
salt-water disposal well on the M. P. Erwin portion of East Hackberry before the
end of 2003. The added disposal capacity provided by the new well should allow
the Company to perform six recompletions and three workovers at East Hackberry.
Castex Back-In
Gulfport sold its interest in the Bayou Penchant, Bayou Pigeon, Deer Island
and Golden Meadow fields to Castex Energy 1996 Limited Partnership effective
April 1, 1998 subject to a 25% reversionary interest in the partnership after
Castex had received 100% of the initial investment. Castex informed Gulfport
that the investment had paid out effective September 1, 2001. In lieu of a 25%
interest in the partnership, Gulfport elected to take a proportionately reduced
25% working interest in the properties. During March 2002, the Company received
approximately $220,000 from Castex which the Company believes consists of sales
income for the period after payout net of operating expenses, although the
Company has not received confirmation of such. As a result, this amount
received has been included in the accompanying statement of income for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 as "Other Income". The Company received an
additional $66,000 from Castex in March of 2003, which is also included in the
accompanying statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as
"Other Income".

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002
During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company reported net
income available to common stockholders of $.34 million as compared to net
income of $.13 million for the corresponding period in 2002. This slight
increase is primarily due to the following factors:
Oil and Gas Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, the
Company reported oil and gas revenues of $4.4 million, an increase of $1.1
million from $3.3 million for the comparable period in 2002. This increase was
due principally to a 27% increase in oil production from 122 MBbls to 155 MBbls
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively. This increase
in production was due to the new oil production generated from the Company's
drilling program initiated during the fourth quarter of 2002 and first quarter
of 2003. In addition, a 7% increase in oil prices during the three months ended
June 30, 2003 to $27.45 per barrel from $25.67 per barrel for the same period in
2002 also contributed to increase in oil and gas revenues.
The following table summarizes the Company's oil and gas production and
related pricing for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002:
Three Months Ended June 30,
2003 2002
---- ----
Oil production volumes (Mbbls) 155 122
Gas production volumes (Mmcf) 41 28
Average oil price (per Bbl) $27.45 $25.67
Average gas price (per Mcf) $ 3.48 $ 4.48
Operating Expenses. Lease operating expenses increased to $1.56 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $1.14 million for the
same period in 2002. This increase was a result of non-capitalized LOE
workovers performed during the period.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization. Depreciation, depletion and
amortization increased $.32 million from $.80 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $1.1 million for the comparable period in 2003. This increase
was attributable primarily to an increase in production to 162 MBOE's for the
three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to 127 MBOE's for the same period
in 2002.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased $.08 million from $.47 million for the three months ended June 30,
2002 to $.39 million for the comparable period in 2003. This decrease is due
mainly to a reduction of legal expenses. During the three months ended June 30,
2002, Gulfport incurred approximately $.07 million of legal expenses related to
the Preferred Stock Offering. During the same period in 2003, there were no
similar expenses. In addition, there were decreases in Gulfport's business
insurance expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2003 due to a change
in accounting accrual treatment.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased for the three months ended
June 30, 2002 from $13,000 to $5,000 for the comparable period in 2003.
19
Income Taxes. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a net operating
loss carryforward of approximately $91 million, in addition to numerous timing
differences which gave rise to a deferred tax asset of approximately $49
million, which was fully reserved by a valuation allowance at that date.
Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and other timing differences
will be recognized as a reduction in income tax expense in the year utilized. A
current tax provision of $.28 million was provided for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2003, which was fully offset by an equal income tax benefit due
to operating loss carryforwards.
Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change. On January 1, 2003, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"), which requires the Company to
record a liability equal to the fair value of the estimated cost to retire an
asset. The asset retirement liability is recorded in the period in which the
obligation meets the definition of a liability, which is generally when the
asset is placed into service. When the liability is initially recorded, the
Company will increase the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset by an
amount equal to the original liability. The liability is accreted to its
present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the
useful life of the related long-lived asset. Any difference between costs
incurred upon settlement of an asset retirement obligation and the recorded
liability will be recognized as a gain or loss in the Company's earnings. The
asset retirement obligation is based on a number of assumptions requiring
professional judgment. The Company cannot predict the type of revisions to
these assumptions that will be required in future periods due to the
availability of additional information, including prices for oil field services,
technological changes, governmental requirements and other factors. Upon
adoption of SFAS No. 143, the Company recorded a net benefit of $.27 million as
the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The non-cash
transition adjustment increased oil and natural gas properties and asset
retirement obligations by $7.59 million and $7.37 million, respectively, and
decreased accumulated depreciation by $.05 million.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company reported net income
available to common stockholders of $1.2 million as compared to net income of
$.14 for the corresponding period in 2002. This increase is primarily due to
the following factors:
Oil and Gas Revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company
reported oil and gas revenues of $8.6 million, an increase of $2.8 million from
$5.8 million for the comparable period in 2002. This increase was due
principally to a 21% increase in oil production from 244 MBbls to 297 MBbls for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively. This increase in
production was due to the new oil production generated from the Company's
drilling program initiated during the fourth quarter of 2002 and second quarter
of 2003. In addition, a 23% increase in oil prices during the six months ended
June 30, 2003 to $28.15 per barrel from $22.90 per barrel for the same period in
2002 also contributed to increase in oil and gas revenues.
The following table summarizes the Company's oil and gas production and
related pricing for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002:
20
Six Months Ended June 30,
2003 2002
---- ----
Oil production volumes (Mbbls) 297 244
Gas production volumes (Mmcf) 67 57
Average oil price (per Bbl) $28.15 $22.90
Average gas price (per Mcf) $3.77 $ 3.31
Operating Expenses. Lease operating expenses increased to $2.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $2.4 million for the same
period in 2002. This increase was a result of non-capitalized LOE workovers
performed during the period.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization. Depreciation, depletion and
amortization increased from $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002
to $2.1 million for the comparable period in 2003. This increase was
attributable primarily to an increase in production to 308 MBOE's for the six
months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to 254 MBOE's for the same period in
2002.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
increased from $.83 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $.96
million for the comparable period in 2003. This increase is due mainly to an
increase in franchise tax expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2003.
In addition, there were slight increases in salaries and benefits as a result of
the several staff additions.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased 92% from $.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2002 to $.008 million for the comparable period in
2003. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in average debt
outstanding. See Note 9 to Financial Statements.
Income Taxes. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a net operating
loss carryforward of approximately $91 million, in addition to numerous timing
differences which gave rise to a deferred tax asset of approximately $49
million, which was fully reserved by a valuation allowance at that date.
Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and other timing differences
will be recognized as a reduction in income tax expense in the year utilized. A
current tax provision of $.65 million was provided for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2003, which was fully offset by an equal income tax benefit due
to operating loss carryforwards.
Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change. On January 1, 2003, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"), which requires the Company to
record a liability equal to the fair value of the estimated cost to retire an
asset. The asset retirement liability is recorded in the period in which the

present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the
useful life of the related long-lived asset. Any difference between costs
incurred upon settlement of an asset retirement obligation and the recorded
liability will be recognized as a gain or loss in the Company's earnings. The
asset retirement obligation is based on a number of assumptions requiring
professional judgment. The Company cannot predict the type of revisions to
these assumptions that will be required in future periods due to the
availability of additional information, including prices for oil field services,
21
technological changes, governmental requirements and other factors. Upon
adoption of SFAS No. 143, the Company recorded a net benefit of $.27 million as
the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The non-cash
transition adjustment increased oil and natural gas properties and asset
retirement obligations by $7.59 million and $7.37 million, respectively, and
decreased accumulated depreciation by $.05 million.
Capital Expenditures, Capital Resources and Liquidity
Net cash flow provided by operating activities for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2003 increased to $9.1 million, as compared to net cash flow
provided of $3.0 million for the comparable period in 2002. This increase was
due in part to an increase in the Company's net income to $1.9 million as a
result of an increase in oil and gas sales. In addition, the Company's total
accounts receivable decreased $2.3 million, primarily due to the receipt of the
insurance settlement related to the hurricane in October 2002. Also, accounts
payable increased by $2.8 million as a result of the increased activity from the
Company's drilling programs initiated in December 2002 and April 2003.
Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30,
2003 was $8.6 million as compared to $4.8 million used during the same period of
2002. Mainly as a result of the Company's drilling programs initiated in
December 2002 and April 2003, the Company spent $7.8 million in additions to oil
and gas properties. Of this amount, the Company spent $5.9 million on drilling
activity and $1.9 million on workover and recompletion activities. In addition,
another $.6 million was spent on the clean up and repair of hurricane damage.
Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30,
2003 was $11,000 as compared to net cash provided of $5.4 million during the
same period of 2002. The decrease is primarily a result of the proceeds raised
in conjunction with the Company's Private Placement Offering in March 2002.
Capital Expenditures. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, Gulfport
invested $7.8 million in oil and gas properties and other property and equipment
as compared to $4.7 million invested during the comparable period in 2002. Of
this amount, the Company spent $5.9 million on drilling activity, $1.9 million
on workover and recompletions activities. In addition, another $.6 million was
spent on the clean up and repair of hurricane damage.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2003, Gulfport financed its
capital expenditures payment requirements with cash flows provided by
operations.
Gulfport's strategy is to continue to increase cash flows generated by its
properties by undertaking new drilling, workover, sidetrack and recompletion
projects in the fields to exploit its extensive reserves. The Company has
upgraded its infrastructure by enhancing its existing facilities to increase
operating efficiencies, increase volume capacities and lower lease operating
expenses. Additionally, Gulfport completed the reprocessing of its 3-D seismic
data in its principal property, West Cote Blanche Bay. The reprocessed data
will enable the Company's geophysicists to generate new prospects and enhance
existing prospects in the intermediate zones in the field thus creating a
portfolio of new drilling opportunities in the most prolific depths of the
field.
22
Capital Resources. On July 11, 1997 Gulfport entered into a $15,000,000
credit facility with ING (U.S.) Capital Corporation ("ING"). During 1998 and
1999, there were two amendments to the facility and the maturity date was reset
to June 30, 2000. On June 28, 2000, the Company repaid in full its credit
facility at ING and established a new credit facility at Bank of Oklahoma
("BOK"). Gulfport was advanced $1.6 million on this new facility, which called
for interest payments to be made monthly in addition to twelve monthly principal
payments of $100,000, with the remaining unpaid balance due on August 31, 2001.
On March 22, 2001, Gulfport executed a new note with BOK increasing the
availability to $1,760,000, increasing the monthly payments slightly to $110,000
beginning July 1, 2001 and extending the maturity date to October 1, 2002. All
outstanding amounts related to this note were repaid during 2002.
On June 20, 2002, the Company entered into a new revolving line of credit
with BOK. Under the terms of the new agreement, the Company was extended a
commitment to borrow up to $2,300,000. Amounts borrowed under the line bear
interest at Chase Manhattan Prime plus one percent, with payments of interest on
outstanding balances due monthly beginning August 1, 2002. Any principal amounts
borrowed under the line were due on July 1, 2003. On July 1, 2003, the maturity
date was extended to July 1, 2004. There was no outstanding balance under this
credit facility at June 30, 2003.
On May 22, 2001, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit
agreement with Gulfport Funding, LLC, ("Gulfport Funding") which has ownership
in common with the Company. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may
borrow up to $3,000,000, with borrowed amounts bearing interest at Bank of
America Prime Rate plus 4%. All outstanding principal amounts along with accrued
interest were due on February 22, 2002. The Company paid a facility commitment
fee of $60,000 in connection with this line of credit. This fee was amortized
over the life of the agreement. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had
borrowed $3,000,000 available under this line. On March 29, 2002, the
outstanding balance of this note payable, along with all accumulated interest
due on the note were retired through Gulfport Funding's participation in the
Company's Private Placement Offering as described below.
In March 2002, the Company commenced a Private Placement Offering of $10
million dollars consisting of 10,000 Units. Each Unit consists of (i) one (1)
share of Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A, of the Company (Preferred) and
(ii) a warrant to purchase up to 250 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share. Dividends accrue on the Preferred prior to the Mandatory Redemption Date
at the rate of 12% per annum payable quarterly in cash or, at the option of the
Company for a period not to exceed two (2) years from the Closing Date, payable
in whole or in part in additional shares of the Preferred based on the
Liquidation Preference of the Preferred at the rate of 15% per annum. No other
dividends shall be declared or shall accrue on the Preferred. To the extent
funds are legally available, the Company is obligated to declare and pay the
dividends on the Preferred. The Warrants have a term of ten (10) years and an
exercise price of $4.00. The Company is required to redeem the Preferred on the
fifth anniversary of the first issuance and the Company may at its sole option,
choose to redeem the Preferred at any time before the expiration of the five
years. Accordingly, the Preferred issued in connection with this Offering is
treated as redeemable stock in the accompanying balance sheet.
Two-thirds of the Preferred Stockholders can affect any Company action,
which would effect their preference position. The Preferred cannot be sold or
transferred by its holders and the Company must use its best efforts to register
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") the common stock issued in
23
connection with the exercise of the Warrants or, if possible, piggyback the
issued common stock if the Company participates in a public offering with the
SEC.
The Offering was made available to stockholders (some of whom were
affiliates) of the Company as of December 31, 2001 and who were known to be
accredited investors by the Company. Purchasers were able to participate up to
their pro rata share of ownership in the Company as of December 31, 2001. The
Offering's initial closing began March 29, 2002 and continued until April 15,
2002, with a total subscription of $9,292,000 or 9,291.85 units.
On March 29, 2002, Gulfport Funding, LLC, participated in the Offering
through a conversion of its $3.0 million dollar loan along with the accumulated
interest due from the Company for 3,262.98 Units. Additionally, on March 29,
2002 entities controlled by the majority shareholder initially funded a share of
the Preferred Offering in the amount of $2,738,000.
As a result of the completion of the NSA engineering report for the year
ended January 1, 2003, the Company has initiated discussions with its current
bank and other banking institutions in an attempt to put in a place a larger and
longer-term revolving credit facility. The Company cannot be sure however that
they will be successful.
The Company is also currently consulting with a financial advisor to
determine how to take advantage of the current market whether through internal
value creation or a capital markets transaction.
Liquidity. The primary capital commitments faced by the Company are the
capital requirements needed to continue developing the Company's proved reserves
and to continue meeting the required principal payments on its Credit Facilities
if any.
In Gulfport's January 1, 2003 reserve report, 85% of Gulfport's net
reserves were categorized as proved undeveloped. The proved reserves of
Gulfport will generally decline as reserves are depleted, except to the extent
that Gulfport conducts successful exploration or development activities or
acquires properties containing proved developed reserves, or both.
To realize reserves and increase production, the Company must continue its
exploratory drilling, undertake other replacement activities or utilize third
parties to accomplish those activities. In the year 2003, Gulfport expects to
undertake several intermediate drilling programs. It is anticipated that these
reserve development projects will be funded either through the use of cash flow
from operations when available, interim bank financing or related third party
financing, a long-term credit facility or by accessing the capital markets. The
cash flow generated from these new projects will be used to make the Company's
required principal payments on its debt with the remainder reinvested in the
field to complete more capital projects.
COMMITMENTS
Plugging and Abandonment Funds
In connection with the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in the
WCBB properties, the Company agreed to contribute approximately $18,000 per
month through March 2004 to a plugging and abandonment trust and the obligation
to plug a minimum of 20 wells per year for 20 years commencing March 11, 1997.
24
Texaco retained a security interest in production from these properties and the
plugging and abandonment trust until such time the Company's obligations to
Texaco have been fulfilled. As of June 30, 2003, the plugging and abandonment
trust totaled $2,633,000. These funds are invested in a U.S. Treasury Money
Market.
During 2002, Gulfport began to fulfill its yearly plugging commitment of 20
wells at WCBB for the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2003. As of the date
of this filing, the pluggings have been completed.
In addition, the Company has letters of credit totaling $200,000 secured by
certificates of deposit being held for plugging costs in the East Hackberry
field. Once specific wells are plugged and abandoned the $200,000 will be
returned to the Company.
ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING CHANGES
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity."
SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures
certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and
equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is
within its scope as a liability (or as an asset in some circumstances). Many of
those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is
generally effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May
31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the
effects of adopting SFAS No. 150 as it relates to the Private Placement Offering
the Company completed during March 2002.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Gulfport Energy Corporation, under the direction of the Chief Executive
Officer and the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has established
disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by Gulfport in the reports that it files or submits
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. The
disclosure controls and procedures are also intended to ensure that such
information is accumulated and communicated to Gulfport's management, including
the Chief Executive Officer and the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer,
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Within 90 days prior to the filing of this Form 10-QSB, an evaluation was
performed under the supervision and with the participation of Gulfport
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Vice President and
Chief Financial Officer, of Gulfport's disclosure controls and procedures (as
those terms are defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934). Based upon their evaluation, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that
Gulfport's disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the date of
this Form 10-QSB. In compliance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002 (18 U.S.C. Section 1350), each of these officers executed a Certification
included in this Form 10-QSB.
25
As of the date of this Form 10-QSB, there have not been any significant
changes in Gulfport's internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
No significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such internal controls
were identified in the evaluation and as a consequence, no corrective action was
required to be taken.
