Get out before Sept 30th read this Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash distributions received with respect to our ownership interests in AGP, Lightfoot, and Titan and AGP’s annual management fee. However, neither Titan nor AGP are currently paying distributions. In addition, Lightfoot completed a portion of its sale transaction that will result in minimal or no quarterly distributions to us. Our primary cash requirements, in addition to normal operating expenses, are for debt service and capital expenditures, which we expect to fund through operating cash flow and cash distributions received. Accordingly, our sources of liquidity are currently not sufficient to satisfy the obligations under our credit agreements.
The significant risks and uncertainties related to our primary sources of liquidity raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We continue to face significant liquidity issues and are currently considering, and are likely to make, changes to our capital structure to maintain sufficient liquidity, meet our debt obligations and manage and strengthen our balance sheet. Without a further extension from our lenders or other significant transaction or capital infusion, we do not expect to have sufficient liquidity to repay our first lien credit agreement at September 30, 2018, and as a result, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
The amounts outstanding under our credit agreements were classified as current liabilities as both obligations are due within one year from the balance sheet date. In total, we have $90.1 million of outstanding indebtedness under our credit agreements, which is net of $0.5 million of debt discounts and $0.1 million of deferred financing costs, as current portion of long term debt, net on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018.
We continually monitor capital markets and may make changes to our capital structure from time to time, with the goal of maintaining financial flexibility, preserving or improving liquidity, strengthening the balance sheet, meeting debt service obligations and/or achieving cost efficiency. For example, we could pursue options such as refinancing or reorganizing our indebtedness or capital structure or seek to raise additional capital through debt or equity financing to address our liquidity concerns and high debt levels. There is no certainty that we will be able to implement any such options, and we cannot provide any assurances that any refinancing or changes to our debt or equity capital structure would be possible or that additional equity or debt financing could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all. Such options may result in a wide range of outcomes for our stakeholders, including cancellation of debt income (“CODI”) which would be directly allocated to our unitholders and reported on such unitholders’ separate returns. It is possible additional adjustments to our strategic plan and outlook may occur based on market conditions and our needs at that time, which could include selling assets or seeking additional partners to develop our assets.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the going concern uncertainty. If we cannot continue as a going concern, adjustments to the carrying values and classification of our assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses could be required and could be material.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities that exist at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Our condensed consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including revenue and expense accruals, depletion of gas and oil properties and the fair value of derivative instruments and our investment in Lightfoot. The oil and natural gas industry principally conducts business by processing actual transactions as many as 60 days after the month of delivery. Consequently, the most recent two months’ financial results were recorded using estimated volumes and contract market prices. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Derivative Instruments
We enter into certain financial contracts to manage our exposure to movement in commodity prices. The derivative instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are measured as either an asset or liability at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are recognized in the current period within gain (loss) on mark-to-market derivatives in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
