The data exhibits significant fluctuations and evolving patterns across the various asset categories over multiple quarters.
- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The percentage of cash and cash equivalents relative to total assets shows a volatile trend. Initially, it increased from 4.92% in early 2021 to a peak of 11.59% in September 2021, followed by a sharp decline to below 1% around the first quarter of 2022. It climbed again during 2023, reaching around 8.41% in early 2024 before dropping precipitously towards 1.25% by the end of the period. This pattern suggests variable liquidity levels, possibly reflecting cash management strategies or operational cash flows variability.
- Restricted Cash
- Restricted cash remains a minor but relatively stable component of assets, fluctuating narrowly between 0.06% and 0.57%. There is a slight increasing trend from mid-2022 to early 2024, indicating a modest rise in cash subject to restrictions.
- Accounts Receivable, Net
- Accounts receivable percentages peak in mid-2022 at approximately 12.98%, then experience a marked decline through 2023 and into early 2024, reaching a low point below 2.0%. This decrease may imply improvement in collection efficiency or changes in credit policy.
- Derivative Assets
- Derivative assets show a notable increase starting in late 2022, peaking at 4.43% by the fourth quarter of 2023, before decreasing again. This rise suggests increased utilization of derivative instruments during this period, potentially for hedging or speculative purposes.
- Assets Held for Sale
- This asset class appears intermittently, with a notable presence around the end of 2022 at around 5.29% to 5.91%, and again in early 2024 at 3.65%, indicating occasional divestitures or classification of certain assets for disposal.
- Other Current Assets
- Other current assets maintain relative stability around the 1.0% to 1.6% range, suggesting consistent minor asset components not categorized elsewhere.
- Current Assets
- Current assets as a whole exhibit fluctuations correlating to changes in cash, receivables, and other current assets, moving between approximately 7.16% and 23.67%. A decline is visible around the first quarter of 2022, followed by some recovery and a subsequent gradual decrease toward 7.56% by the end of the timeline.
- Proved Natural Gas and Oil Properties
- This asset category shows a generally increasing share of total assets, from roughly 69% in early 2021 to a high of over 92% in late 2024, albeit with a dip around the end of 2024. This suggests ongoing investment or reclassification favoring proved resource properties.
- Unproved Properties
- Unproved properties rise sharply from 5.75% in late 2021 to over 20% near the end of the timeline, with intermittent fluctuations. This indicates heightened focus or capital allocation towards exploration or undeveloped assets.
- Natural Gas and Oil Properties (Successful Efforts Method)
- The combined measure for natural gas and oil properties reflecting successful efforts method shows a marked increase from 75.77% to about 106% (suggesting adjustments or classification impacts) over the assessed period, underscoring asset growth under this accounting method.
- Other Property and Equipment
- This category experiences a decrease from over 7% to under 3% by the later periods, implying divestments or reclassifications away from ancillary property and equipment.
- Property and Equipment
- Overall property and equipment as a portion of total assets follows a rising trend, peaking above 109% in late 2024 (likely due to accounting adjustments), with fluctuations indicating varying capital expenditure or asset disposals.
- Accumulated Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization
- Accumulated depreciation presents a consistent increasing negative figure, extending from -1.74% to a peak near -35.42% before a sudden reduction around the end of the timeline. This trend reflects ongoing asset aging and usage offset by potential asset retirements or impairments.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- Net property and equipment percentages show variability with an overall tendency to decrease in early phases, reaching lows near 70%, then increasing towards 87% by the end, highlighting the influence of accumulated depreciation and new investments or asset revaluations.
- Long-term Derivative Assets
- These assets increase modestly from negligible levels in early 2021 to peaks of approximately 0.84% in late 2022 but taper off towards nearly zero by early 2025, indicating reduced long-term derivative holdings recently.
- Deferred Income Tax Assets
- Deferred tax assets emerge prominently around late 2022, fluctuating between 2.11% and 8.73%, potentially indicating recognition of tax benefits or timing differences in asset valuation.
- Other Long-term Assets
- Other long-term assets appear steady, generally increasing from about 1.15% up to around 4.6% during 2023 before slightly declining, reflecting growing diversification of long-term holdings.
- Long-term Assets and Total Assets
- Long-term assets maintain a dominant share around 80% to 93% of total assets, emphasizing the capital-intensive nature of the asset base. Total assets remain the base of 100% throughout, with internal allocation changes reflecting strategic asset management.
Overall, the data reveals a strong and increasing commitment to proved and unproved natural gas and oil asset categories, fluctuating liquidity levels, growing use of derivative instruments especially in short-term assets, and dynamic changes in accumulated depreciation and deferred taxes highlighting evolving asset aging and tax positions.
