Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

NOTE 1 — GENERAL

The terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Tellurian” and the “Company” as used in this report refer collectively to Tellurian Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context suggests otherwise. These terms are used for convenience only and are not intended as a precise description of any separate legal entity associated with Tellurian Inc.

Nature of Operations

We plan to develop, own and operate a global natural gas business and to deliver natural gas to customers worldwide. Tellurian is developing a portfolio of natural gas production, LNG marketing, and infrastructure assets, including an LNG terminal facility (the “Driftwood terminal”) and an associated pipeline (the “Driftwood pipeline”) in southwest Louisiana. Tellurian plans to develop the Driftwood pipeline as part of what we refer to as the “Pipeline Network.” The Driftwood terminal, the Pipeline Network and required natural gas production assets are collectively referred to as the “Driftwood Project”.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period information to the current presentation. The reclassifications did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Liquidity

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business as well as the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we have generated losses and negative cash flows from operations, and have an accumulated deficit. We have not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to satisfy our obligations and fund working capital needs.

We are planning to generate proceeds from our at-the-market program and have determined that it is probable that such proceeds will satisfy our obligations and fund our working capital needs for at least twelve months following the issuance of the financial statements. We also continue to evaluate generating additional proceeds from various other potential financing transactions, such as issuances of equity, equity-linked and debt securities, or similar transactions to fund our obligations and working capital needs.

Use of Estimates

To conform with GAAP, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. Although these estimates and assumptions are based on our best available knowledge at the time, actual results may differ.

NOTE 2 — PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

The components of prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of the following (in thousands):

Land

We own land in Louisiana for the purpose of constructing the Driftwood Project.

NOTE 4 — DEFERRED ENGINEERING COSTS

Deferred engineering costs of approximately $110.6 million, represent detailed engineering services related to the planned construction of the Driftwood terminal as of March 31, 2021. The balance in this account will be transferred to construction in progress upon reaching an affirmative FID by the Company’s Board of Directors.

NOTE 5 — OTHER NON-CURRENT ASSETS

Other non-current assets consist of the following (in thousands):


	March 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Land lease and purchase options	$	6,040	$	5,831
Permitting costs	13,345		13,092
Right of use asset — operating leases	11,469		11,884
Other	1,952		2,090
Total other non-current assets	$	32,806	$	32,897

Land Lease and Purchase Options

We hold lease and purchase option agreements (the “Options”) for certain tracts of land and associated river frontage. Upon exercise of the Options, the leases are subject to maximum terms of 50 years (inclusive of various renewals, at the option of the Company). Costs of the Options will be amortized over the life of the lease once obtained, or capitalized into the cost of land if purchased.

Permitting Costs

Permitting costs primarily represent the purchase of wetland credits in connection with our permit application to the USACE in 2017 and 2018. These wetland credits will be applied to our permit in accordance with the Clean Water Act and the Rivers and Harbors Act, which require us to mitigate the potential impact to Louisiana wetlands that might be caused by the construction of the Driftwood Project. In May 2019, we received the USACE permit. The permitting costs will be transferred to construction in progress upon reaching an affirmative FID by the Company’s Board of Directors.

NOTE 6 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As discussed in Note 9, Borrowings, as part of entering into the senior secured term loan credit agreement in 2018, we are required to enter into and maintain certain hedging transactions. As a result, we use derivative financial instruments, namely OTC commodity swap instruments (“commodity swaps”), to maintain compliance with this covenant. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Commodity swap agreements involve payments to or receipts from counterparties based on the differential between two prices for the commodity, and include basis swaps to protect earnings from undue exposure to the risk of geographic disparities in commodity prices, as required by the negative covenant of the senior secured term loan credit agreement. The fair value of our commodity swaps is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and is based on standard industry income

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

approach models that use significant observable inputs, including but not limited to New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) natural gas forward curves and basis forward curves, all of which are validated against external sources at least monthly.

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on a net basis as they are with a single counterparty and subject to a master netting arrangement. The Company can net settle its derivative instruments at any time. As of March 31, 2021, we had a current liability, net of $0.1 million, and a non-current liability, net of $0.1 million, with respect to the fair value of the current and non-current portion of our commodity swaps.

We do not apply hedge accounting for our commodity swaps; therefore, all changes in fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments are recognized within Other income, net, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized a realized gain of $0.4 million, as well as an unrealized loss of $1.1 million related to the changes in fair value of the commodity swaps in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Derivative contracts which result in physical delivery of a commodity expected to be used or sold by the Company in the normal course of business are designated as normal purchases and sales and are exempt from derivative accounting. OTC arrangements require settlement in cash. Settlements of commodity derivative instruments are reported as a component of cash flows from operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

With respect to the commodity swaps, the Company hedged 5.6 Bcf of its fixed price and basis exposure, which represents a portion of its expected sales of equity production as of March 31, 2021. The open positions as of March 31, 2021 had maturities extending through September 2022.

NOTE 7 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In conjunction with the dismissal of prior litigation, we agreed to reimburse the Vice Chairman of our Board of Directors, Martin Houston, for reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses he incurred during the litigation. As of March 31, 2021 a balance of approximately $0.5 million remained owed to Mr. Houston and has been classified within Accounts payable due to related parties on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 8 — ACCRUED AND OTHER LIABILITIES

The components of accrued and other liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

Total borrowings	$	119,217	$	(8,123)	$	111,094


(a) Includes paid-in-kind interest on the 2019 Term Loan of $3.3 million.

Extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan

On March 12, 2021 (the “Extinguishment Date”), we finalized a voluntary repayment of the remaining outstanding principal balance of the 2019 Term Loan. A total of approximately $43.7 million was repaid to the lender throughout the first quarter of 2021 to satisfy the outstanding borrowing obligation. The extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan resulted in an approximately $2.1 million gain, which was recognized within Gain on extinguishment of debt, net, on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

As a result of repaying the outstanding balance prior to its contractual maturity, an approximately $4.4 million in unamortized DFC and discount were included in the computation of the gain from the extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan as of March 31, 2021.

The holder of the 2019 Term Loan held approximately 3.5 million unvested warrants that had a fair value of approximately $6.3 million as of the Extinguishment Date. Due to the extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan, all the unvested warrants were contractually terminated (the “Terminated Warrants”), and their respective fair value was included in the computation of the gain on extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan.

The fair value of the Terminated Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Full Repayment of the 2020 Unsecured Note

On March 31, 2020, we made the final contractually required amortization payment of $4.0 million under the terms of the 2020 Unsecured Note, thereby satisfying all financial obligations under the 2020 Unsecured Note.

2018 Term Loan

On September 28, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), Tellurian Production Holdings LLC (“Production Holdings”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a three-year senior secured term loan credit agreement (the “2018 Term Loan”) in an aggregate principal amount of $60.0 million.

Our use of proceeds from the 2018 Term Loan is predominantly restricted to capital expenditures associated with certain development and drilling activities and fees related to the transaction itself. As of March 31, 2021, unused proceeds from the 2018 Term Loan totaled $3.4 million and were classified as Non-current restricted cash on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We have the right, but not the obligation, to make voluntary principal repayments starting six months following the Closing Date in a minimum amount of $5.0 million or any integral multiples of $1.0 million in excess thereof. If no voluntary principal repayments are made, the principal amount, together with any accrued interest, is payable at the maturity date of

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

September 28, 2021. The 2018 Term Loan can be terminated without penalty, with an early termination payment equal to the outstanding principal plus accrued interest.

Amounts borrowed under the 2018 Term Loan are guaranteed by Tellurian Inc. and each of Production Holdings’ subsidiaries. The 2018 Term Loan is collateralized by a first priority lien on all assets of Production Holdings and its subsidiaries, including our proved natural gas properties.

On February 18, 2021, we voluntarily repaid approximately $43.0 million of the 2018 Term Loan outstanding principal balance. As a result of this voluntary repayment, we recognized an approximately $0.5 million loss, which was netted against the gain on extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan, and presented within Gain on extinguishment of debt, net, on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations on this partial extinguishment due to the pro-rata recognition of the unamortized DFC and discount associated with the 2018 Term Loan. See Note 16, Subsequent Events, for further information.

The carrying value of the 2018 Term Loan approximates its fair value.

Covenant Compliance

As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its credit agreement. Refer to Note 6, Financial Instruments, for details of hedging transactions, as of and for the period ended March 31, 2021, entered into as required by the 2018 Term Loan described above.

NOTE 10 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On April 23, 2019, we entered into a master LNG sale and purchase agreement and related confirmation notices (collectively, the “SPA”) with an unrelated third-party LNG merchant. Pursuant to the SPA, we committed to purchase one cargo of LNG per quarter through October 2022. The volume of each cargo is expected to range from 3.3 to 3.6 million MMBtu, and each cargo will be purchased under DES terms. The price of each cargo will be based on the JKM price in effect at the time of each purchase.

NOTE 11 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

At-the-Market Program

We maintain an at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we may sell shares of our common stock from time to time on Nasdaq. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we issued 38.7 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market program for net proceeds of approximately $89.2 million. As of March 31, 2021, we had remaining availability under the at-the-market program to raise aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to approximately $241.9 million. See Note 16, Subsequent Events, for further information.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

2019 Term Loan

During the first quarter of 2021, the lender of the 2019 Term Loan purchased approximately 6.0 million shares of our common stock for total proceeds of approximately $8.2 million. As discussed in Note 9, Borrowings, the 2019 Term Loan has been repaid in full and the lender no longer holds any warrants.

2020 Unsecured Note

In conjunction with the issuance of the 2020 Unsecured Note, we issued a warrant providing the lender with the right to purchase up to 20.0 million shares of our common stock at $1.542 per share (the “2020 Warrant”). The 2020 Warrant vested immediately and will expire in October 2025. The 2020 Warrant has been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because including it in the computation would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

Preferred Stock

In March 2018, we entered into a preferred stock purchase agreement with BDC Oil and Gas Holdings, LLC (“Bechtel Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Bechtel Oil, Gas and Chemicals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, pursuant to which we sold to Bechtel Holdings approximately 6.1 million shares of our Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”).

The holders of the Preferred Stock do not have dividend rights but do have a liquidation preference over holders of our common stock. The holders of the Preferred Stock may convert all or any portion of their shares into shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. At any time after “Substantial Completion” of “Project 1,” each as defined in and pursuant to the LSTK EPC Agreement for the Driftwood LNG Phase 1 Liquefaction Facility, dated as of November 10, 2017, or at any time after March 21, 2028, we have the right to cause all of the Preferred Stock to be converted into shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. The Preferred Stock has been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because including it in the computation would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

NOTE 12 — SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

We have granted restricted stock and restricted stock units (collectively, “Restricted Stock”), as well as unrestricted stock and stock options, to employees, directors and outside consultants (collectively, the “grantees”) under the Tellurian Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (the “2016 Plan”), and the Amended and Restated Tellurian Investments Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Legacy Plan”). The maximum number of shares of Tellurian common stock authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan is 40 million shares of common stock, and no further awards can be granted under the Legacy Plan.

Upon the vesting of restricted stock, shares of common stock will be released to the grantee. Upon the vesting of restricted stock units, the units will be converted into either cash, stock, or a combination thereof. As of March 31, 2021, there was no Restricted Stock that would be required to be settled in cash.

As of March 31, 2021, we had approximately 29.7 million shares of performance-based Restricted Stock outstanding, of which approximately 19.3 million shares will vest entirely at FID, as defined in the award agreements, and approximately 9.8 million shares will vest in one-third increments at FID and the first and second anniversaries of FID. The remaining shares of performance-based Restricted Stock, totaling approximately 0.6 million shares, will vest based on other criteria. As of March 31, 2021, no expense had been recognized in connection with performance-based Restricted Stock.

As of March 31, 2021, we had approximately 2.3 million shares of time-based Restricted Stock outstanding. They primarily represent the settlement of the 2019 employee bonuses, which were recognized as compensation expenses and included in our accrued liabilities balance as of December 31, 2019, and will vest in their entirety during 2021.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the recognized share-based compensation expenses related to all share-based awards totaled approximately $1.6 million. As of March 31, 2021, unrecognized compensation expenses, based on the grant date fair value, for all share-based awards totaled approximately $202.2 million. Further, the approximately 32.0 million shares of performance-based and time-based Restricted Stock, as well as approximately 11.2 million stock options outstanding, have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because including them in the computation would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

NOTE 13 — INCOME TAXES

Due to our cumulative loss position, historical net operating losses (“NOLs”), and other available evidence related to our ability to generate taxable income, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Accordingly, we have not recorded a provision for federal, state or foreign income taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

We experienced ownership changes as defined by Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 382 in 2017, and an analysis of the annual limitation on the utilization of our NOLs was performed at that time. It was determined that IRC Section 382 will not limit the use of our NOLs over the carryover period. We will continue to monitor trading activity in our shares that may cause an additional ownership change, which may ultimately affect our ability to fully utilize our existing NOL carryforwards.

NOTE 14 — LEASES

Finance Leases

Our land leases are classified as financing leases and include one or more options to extend the lease term for up to 40 years, as well as to terminate the lease within five years, at our sole discretion. We are reasonably certain that those options will be exercised, and that our termination rights will not be exercised, and we have, therefore, included those assumptions within our right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. As of March 31, 2021, the weighted-average remaining lease term for our financing leases was approximately fifty years. As none of our finance leases provide an implicit rate, we have determined our own discount rate, which, on a weighted-average basis at March 31, 2021, was approximately 13%.

As of March 31, 2021, our financing leases had a corresponding right of use asset of approximately $19.9 million, which is recognized within Property, plant and equipment, net, and a total lease liability of approximately $13.5 million, which is recognized in Other non-current liabilities. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, our finance lease costs, which are associated with the interest on our lease liabilities, were approximately $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Operating Leases

Our office space leases are classified as operating leases and include one or more options to extend the lease term for up to 10 years, at our sole discretion. As we are not reasonably certain that those options will be exercised, none are recognized as part of our right of use assets and lease liabilities. As of March 31, 2021, our weighted-average remaining lease term for our operating leases was approximately five years. As none of our operating leases provide an implicit rate, we have determined our own discount rate, which, on a weighted-average basis at March 31, 2021, was approximately 8%.

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

As of March 31, 2021, our operating leases had a corresponding right of use asset of approximately $11.5 million, which is recognized within Other non-current assets, and a total lease liability of approximately $13.2 million which is recognized within Accrued and other liabilities (approximately $2.0 million) and Other non-current liabilities (approximately $11.2 million). For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, our operating lease costs were $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we paid approximately $0.7 million, and $0.9 million, respectively, in cash for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities, all of which are presented within operating cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis presents management’s view of our business, financial condition and overall performance and should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. This information is intended to provide investors with an understanding of our past development activities, current financial condition and outlook for the future organized as follows:

•Our Business

•Overview of Significant Events

•Liquidity and Capital Resources

•Capital Development Activities

•Results of Operations

•Recent Accounting Standards

Our Business

Tellurian Inc. (“Tellurian,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) intends to create value for shareholders by building a low-cost, global natural gas business, profitably delivering natural gas to customers worldwide (the “Business”). We are developing a portfolio of natural gas production, LNG marketing, and infrastructure assets that includes an LNG terminal facility (the “Driftwood terminal”) and related pipelines (the “Pipeline Network”). We refer to the Driftwood terminal, the Pipeline Network and required natural gas production assets collectively as the “Driftwood Project.” Our existing natural gas production assets consist of 9,704 net acres and interests in 72 producing wells located in the Haynesville Shale trend of northern Louisiana. Our Business may be developed in phases.

As part of our execution strategy, we will consider partnering with third parties across the natural gas value chain. We are also pursuing activities such as direct sales of LNG to global counterparties, the acquisition of additional upstream acreage, the drilling of new wells on our existing or newly acquired upstream acreage and trading LNG.

We continue to evaluate, and discuss with potential partners, the scope and other aspects of our Business in light of the evolving economic environment, needs of potential partners and other factors. How we execute our Business will be based on a variety of factors, including the results of our continuing analysis, changing business conditions and market feedback.

Overview of Significant Events

Debt Reductions

During the first quarter of 2021, we repaid a total of approximately $102.7 million in outstanding principal balance of our borrowing obligations. As of March 31, 2021, we had one term loan outstanding with an outstanding balance of $17.0 million. On April 23, 2021, the remaining outstanding principal balance was voluntarily repaid.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We are currently funding our operations, development activities and general working capital needs through our cash on hand. Our current capital resources consist of approximately $58.7 million of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021, on a consolidated basis, of which approximately $9.4 million is maintained at a wholly owned subsidiary of Tellurian Production Holdings LLC. We currently maintain an at-the-market equity offering program under which, as of the date of this filing, we have remaining availability to raise aggregate gross sales proceeds of approximately $226.3 million. Since January 1, 2021, and through April 30, 2021, we have sold approximately 46.5 million shares of common stock under our at-the-market program for total proceeds of approximately $104.3 million, net of approximately $3.2 million in fees and commissions. We plan to enter into a new at-the-market equity offering program shortly after the filing of this report.

As of March 31, 2021, we had total indebtedness of $17.0 million that is scheduled to be repaid within the next twelve months. We also had contractual obligations associated with our finance and operating leases totaling $107.4 million, of which $4.8 million is scheduled to be paid within the next twelve months.

On April 23, 2021, the remaining indebtedness balance of $17.0 million was voluntarily repaid.

Sources and Uses of Cash

The following table summarizes the sources and uses of our cash and cash equivalents and costs and expenses for the periods presented (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,

	2021		2020
Cash used in operating activities	$	(10,475)	$	(20,494)
Cash used in investing activities	(1,400)		(269)
Cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(7,691)		11,303

Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	(19,566)		(9,460)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of the period	81,738		68,482
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of the period	$	62,172	$	59,022

Net working capital	$	1,282	$	3,699

Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased by approximately $10.0 million compared to the same period in 2020 due to an overall decrease in disbursements in the normal course of business.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by approximately $1.1 million compared to the same period in 2020. This increase is predominantly driven by increased natural gas development activities.

Cash (used in) provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased by approximately $19.0 million compared to the same period in 2020. This decrease primarily relates to approximately $102.7 million in principal repayments of our borrowings compared to $2.0 million in the prior period. This increase in principal repayments was offset by an increase in net proceeds of approximately $89.2 million from equity issuances compared to approximately $13.3 million in the prior period. See Note 9, Borrowings, of our Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Borrowings

As of March 31, 2021, we had total indebtedness of approximately $17.0 million, all of which was secured indebtedness, and we were in compliance with the covenants under our credit agreement. On April 23, 2021, the remaining outstanding principal balance was voluntarily repaid. For additional details regarding our borrowing activity, refer to Note 9, Borrowings, of our Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Capital Development Activities

The activities we have proposed will require significant amounts of capital and are subject to risks and delays in completion. We have received all regulatory approvals and, as a result, our business success will depend to a significant extent upon our ability to obtain the funding necessary to construct assets on a commercially viable basis and to finance the costs of staffing, operating and expanding our company during that process.

We currently estimate the total cost of the Driftwood Project to be approximately $24.7 billion, including owners’ costs, transaction costs and contingencies but excluding interest costs incurred during construction of the Driftwood terminal and other financing costs. We have entered into four LSTK EPC agreements currently totaling $15.5 billion, or $561 per tonne, with Bechtel Oil, Gas and Chemicals, Inc. (“Bechtel”) for construction of the Driftwood terminal. The proposed Driftwood terminal will have a liquefaction capacity of up to approximately 27.6 Mtpa and will be situated on approximately 1,000 acres in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. The proposed Driftwood terminal will include up to 20 liquefaction Trains, three full containment LNG storage tanks and three marine berths.

In addition, part of our strategy involves acquiring additional natural gas properties, including properties in the Haynesville shale trend. We intend to pursue potential acquisitions of such assets, or public or private companies that own such

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

assets, in 2021. We would expect to use stock, cash on hand, or cash raised in financing transactions to complete an acquisition of this type.

We anticipate funding our more immediate liquidity requirements relative to the detailed engineering work and other developmental costs, natural gas development costs, and general and administrative costs through the use of cash on hand, proceeds from operations, and proceeds from completed and future issuances of securities by us. Consistent with our overall financing strategy, the Company has considered, and in some cases discussed with investors, various potential financing transactions, including issuances of debt, equity and equity-linked securities or similar transactions, to support its short- and medium-term capital requirements. The Company will continue to evaluate its cash needs and business outlook, and it may execute one or more transactions of this type in the future.

We currently expect that our long-term capital requirements will be financed by proceeds from future debt, equity and/or equity-linked transactions.

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes revenue, costs and expenses for the periods presented (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021		2020
Total revenue	$	8,706	$	8,217
Cost of sales	2,406		2,879
Development expenses	8,141		11,183
Depreciation, depletion and amortization	2,652		5,832
General and administrative expenses	15,111		17,239

Severance and reorganization charges	—		5,505

Loss from operations	(19,604)		(34,421)
Interest expense, net	(5,892)		(6,396)
Gain on extinguishment of debt, net	1,574		—
Other (expense) income, net	(3,063)		83
Income tax benefit	—		—
Net loss	$	(26,985)	$	(40,734)

Our consolidated net loss was approximately $27.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of approximately $40.7 million during the same period in 2020. The decrease in net loss of approximately $13.7 million is primarily a result of the following:

•Decrease of approximately $5.5 million in severance and reorganization charges due to the lack of these activities during the current period.

•Decreases of approximately $2.1 million and approximately $3.0 million in general and administrative expenses and development expenses, respectively, due to an overall decrease in business activities during the quarter.

•Decrease of approximately $3.2 million in DD&A due to the lower net book value utilized in the calculation when compared to the prior period.

Recent Accounting Standards

We do not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

Critical Accounting Estimates

There were no changes made by management to the critical accounting policies in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Please refer to the Summary of Critical Accounting Estimates section within MD&A and Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a discussion of our critical accounting estimates and accounting policies.
