into the Weald ATA for the sale of its interest in certain
exploration licenses to UKOG. The transactions contemplated by
the Weald ATA closed on August 11, 2016. |
|

The Company reviewed the
recoverability of the carrying values of its wells in progress to
be transferred to One Stone in the Exchange, and as a result of
this review recorded an impairment of $3.4 million to adjust the
carrying value of wells in progress to their estimated fair values
less costs to sell at June 30, 2016. |

The Company reclassified the
capitalized costs for two of the five CO2-enhanced oil recovery
pilot wells from wells in progress to producing properties during
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. |
In the United Kingdom, during the third quarter of fiscal year
2015, the Company allowed a petroleum license to expire and
recorded exploration expense of $20 thousand. During the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company sold its interest in a
license in the United Kingdom with a remaining capitalized cost of
$0.7 million.
At June 30, 2016, the Company had no costs capitalized for
exploratory wells in progress for a period of greater than one year
after the completion of drilling.
