NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.
Nature of Operations
Mexco
Energy Corporation (a Colorado corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Forman Energy Corporation (a New York corporation), Southwest
Texas Disposal Corporation (a Texas corporation) and TBO Oil & Gas, LLC (a Texas limited liability company) (collectively, the “Company”)
are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of crude oil, natural gas, condensate and natural gas liquids
(“NGLs”). Most of the Company’s oil and gas interests are centered in West Texas and Southeastern New Mexico; however,
the Company owns producing properties and undeveloped acreage in fourteen states. All of the Company’s oil and gas interests are
operated by others.
2.
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Principles
of Consolidation . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mexco Energy Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions associated with the consolidated operations have been eliminated.
Estimates
and Assumptions . In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“GAAP”), management is required to make informed judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and affect the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In addition, significant estimates are used in determining proved oil and gas reserves.
Although management believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
The estimate of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves, which is used to compute depreciation, depletion, amortization, and
impairment of oil and gas properties, is the most significant of the estimates and assumptions that affect these reported results.
Interim
Financial Statements . In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025,
and the results of its operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The consolidated financial
statements as of December 31, 2025 and for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are unaudited. The consolidated
balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 was derived from the audited balance sheet filed in the Company’s 2025 annual report on Form
10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in
more detail in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. However, the disclosures
herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K.
Oil
and Natural Gas Properties . The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties. Under this method,
all acquisition, exploration, and development costs are capitalized and amortized on a composite unit of production method based on proved
oil and natural gas reserves. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to exploration and development activities but
does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. The carrying amount of oil and gas
properties also includes estimated asset retirement costs recorded based on the fair value of the asset retirement obligation (“ARO”)
when incurred. Sales of oil and natural gas properties, whether or not being amortized currently, are accounted for as adjustments of
capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized
costs and proved reserves of oil and natural gas. This includes any sales of properties such as Term Assignments and Assignments, Bill
of Sales and Conveyances. Depletion of evaluated oil and natural gas properties is computed on the units of production method, whereby
capitalized costs plus estimated future development costs are amortized over total proved reserves.
7
In
addition, capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes are not allowed to exceed an amount (the full
cost ceiling) equal to the sum of: 1)the present value of estimated future net revenues discounted at ten percent computed in compliance
with SEC guidelines; 2) plus the cost of properties not being amortized; 3) plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven
properties included in the costs being amortized; 4) less income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of
the properties.
No
impairments on oil and natural gas properties as a result of the ceiling test were recorded for the three and nine months ended December
31, 2025 and 2024.
Investments .
The Company accounts for investments of less than 3% of any limited liability companies at cost. The Company has no control of the
limited liability companies. The cost of the investment is recorded as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets and when income from
the investment is received, it is immediately recognized on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company evaluates investments
for an impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an investment may not be recoverable.
Indicators of impairment may include, but are not limited to, sustained declines in market value, investee financial condition and operating
performance, industry or economic trends, and other relevant factors.
Segments .
Based on the Company’s organizational structure, the Company has one operating segment, which is crude oil and natural gas development,
exploration and production. In addition, the Company has a single, company-wide management team that allocates capital resources to maximize
profitability and measures financial performance as a single enterprise.
3.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The
Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) relate to the plugging of wells, the removal of facilities and equipment,
and site restoration on oil and gas properties. The ARO is included in the consolidated balance sheets with the current portion being
included in the accounts payable and other accrued expenses.
The
following table provides a rollforward of the AROs for the first nine months of fiscal 2026:

Stock-based Compensation

Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 39,880 and $ 51,630 in general and administrative expense in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense recognized
for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $ 134,121 and $ 155,699 , respectively. The total cost related to non-vested awards
not yet recognized at December 31, 2025 totals $ 146,052 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average of 1.07 years.
During
the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, no stock options were granted.

Long Term Debt
On
December 28, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Agreement”) with West Texas National Bank (“WTNB”),
which originally provided for a credit facility of $ 1,000,000 with a maturity date of December 28, 2021 . The Agreement has no monthly
commitment reduction and a borrowing base to be evaluated annually. On February 28, 2020, the Agreement was amended to increase the credit
facility to $ 2,500,000 , extend the maturity date to March 28, 2023 and increase the borrowing base to $ 1,500,000 . On March 28, 2023,
the Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to March 28, 2026 .
Under
the Agreement, interest on the facility accrues at a rate equal to the prime rate as quoted in the Wall Street Journal plus one-half
of one percent (0.5%) floating daily. Interest on the outstanding amount under the Agreement is payable monthly. In addition, the Company
will pay an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) times the daily average of the unadvanced amount
of the commitment. The unused commitment fee is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter. As of December
31, 2025, there was $ 1,500,000 available for borrowing by the Company on the facility.
No
principal payments are anticipated to be required through the maturity date of the credit facility, March 28, 2026 . Upon closing the
second amendment to the Agreement, the Company paid a loan origination fee of $ 9,000 plus legal and recording expenses totaling $ 12,950 ,
which were deferred over the life of the credit facility. Amounts borrowed under the Agreement are collateralized by the common stock
of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and substantially all of the Company’s oil and gas properties.
The
Agreement contains customary covenants for credit facilities of this type including limitations on change in control, disposition of
assets, mergers and reorganizations. The Company is also obligated to meet certain financial covenants under the Agreement and requires
senior debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) ratios (Senior Debt/EBITDA) less
than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 measured with respect to the four trailing quarters and minimum interest coverage ratios (EBITDA/Interest
Expense) of 2.00 to 1.00 for each quarter.
In
addition, this Agreement prohibits the Company from paying cash dividends on its common stock without written permission of WTNB. The
Company obtained written permission from WTNB prior to declaring the regular annual dividend on May 13, 2025 as discussed in Note 10.
The Agreement does not permit the Company to enter into hedge agreements covering crude oil and natural gas prices without prior WTNB
approval.
On
September 17, 2025, WTNB reaffirmed the borrowing base at $ 1,500,000 . There was no balance outstanding on the credit facilty as of December
31, 2025.

Leases
The
Company leases approximately 4,160 rentable square feet of office space from an unaffiliated third party for our corporate office located
in Midland, Texas. This includes 702 square feet of office space shared with and paid by our principal shareholder. In June 2024, the
Company agreed to re-extend its lease at a flat (unescalated) rate for another 36 months. The amended lease now expires on July 31, 2027 .
The
Company determines an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in operating lease right-of-use asset, operating
lease liability, current, and operating lease liability, long-term on the consolidated balance sheets.
9
Operating
lease right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent
its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement
date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate,
the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value
of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate used at adoption was 9 %. Significant judgement is required when determining the incremental
borrowing rate. Rent expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The
balance sheets classification of lease assets and liabilities was as follows:

Income Taxes
On
July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill” (“OBBB”) was enacted. The OBBB is a significant piece of legislation
that includes significant changes to federal tax policy, environmental funding, and energy development regulations. Key provisions relevant
to the crude oil and natural gas industry include (i) tax policy changes that extend and expand components of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act and (ii) the introduction of fee and royalty-related provisions aimed at reducing financial and administrative burdens on domestic
energy producers. The Company is currently evaluating the full impact of the OBBB on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance
sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in its condensed consolidated
financial statements.
The
income tax provision consists of the following for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

or terminated at any time by the Board. Under the repurchase program, shares of common stock may be purchased from time to time through
open market purchases or other transactions. The amount and timing of repurchases will be subject to the availability of stock, prevailing
market conditions, the trading price of the stock, our financial performance and other conditions. Repurchases may also be made from

Liquidity
and Capital Resources. Historically, we have funded our operations, acquisitions, exploration and development expenditures from cash
generated by operating activities, bank borrowings, sales of non-core properties and issuance of common stock. Our primary financial
resource is our base of oil and gas reserves. We have pledged our producing oil and gas properties to secure our credit facility. We
do not have any delivery commitments to provide a fixed and determinable quantity of its oil and gas under any existing contract or agreement.
Our
long-term strategy is on increasing profit margins while concentrating on obtaining reserves with low-cost operations by acquiring and
developing oil and gas properties with potential for long-lived production. We focus our efforts on the acquisition of royalties and
working interests in non-operated properties in areas with significant development potential.

Cash
Flow Provided by Operating Activities. Cash flow from operating activities is primarily derived from the production of our crude
oil and natural gas reserves and changes in the balances of non-cash accounts, receivables, payables or other non-energy property asset
account balances. Cash flow provided by our operating activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was $2,930,832 in comparison
to $2,941,115 for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. This decrease of $10,283 in our cash flow operating activities consisted of

and accrued expenses and income tax payable; and, a decrease in our net income for the current nine months of $461,668. Variations in
cash flow from operating activities may impact our level of exploration and development expenditures.
Our
expenditures in operating activities consist primarily of drilling expenses, production expenses and engineering services. Our expenses
also consist of employee compensation, accounting, insurance and other general and administrative expenses that we have incurred in order
to address normal and necessary business activities of a public company in the crude oil and natural gas production industry.
13
Cash Flow
Used in Investing Activities. Cash flow from investing activities is derived from changes in oil and gas property balances. For the
nine months ended December 31, 2025, we had net cash of $2,212,547 used for additions to oil and gas properties and our investment in
the limited liability company compared to $3,670,019 for the nine months ended December 31, 2024.
Cash Flow
Provided by Financing Activities. Cash flow from financing activities is derived from our changes in long-term debt and in equity
account balances. Net cash flow used in our financing activities was $204,600 for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 compared to
cash flow used in our financing activities of $834,575 for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. During the nine months ended December
31, 2025, we expended $204,600 to pay the regular annual dividend. During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, we expended $209,000
to pay the regular annual dividend and $703,216 to purchase 57,766 shares of our stock for the treasury account and received $77,641 from
the exercise of stock options.
Accordingly,
net cash increased $513,685, leaving cash and cash equivalents on hand of $2,267,640 as of December 31, 2025.
At December
31, 2025, we had working capital of $3,186,231 compared to working capital of $2,469,664 at March 31, 2025, an increase of $716,567 for

to the extent possible, from existing cash balances and cash flow from operations. The remainder may be funded through borrowings on the
credit facility and, if appropriate, sales of non-core properties.
Pricing.
Crude oil and natural gas prices generally remained volatile during the last year. The volatility of the energy markets makes it extremely
difficult to predict future oil and natural gas price movements with any certainty. For example, in the last twelve months, the NYMEX
West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) posted price for crude oil has ranged from a low of $51.25 per bbl in December 2025 to a high
of $76.02 per bbl in January 2025. The Henry Hub Spot Market Price (“Henry Hub”) for natural gas has ranged from a low of
$2.65 per MMBtu in June and October 2025 to a high of $9.86 per MMBtu in January 2025.
On December
31, 2025, the WTI posted price for crude oil was $53.40 and the Henry Hub spot price for natural gas was $4.00 per MMBtu. See Results
of Operations below for realized prices. Pipeline capacity constraints and maintenance in the Permian Basin area has contributed to a
wider difference between the WaHa Hub and the Henry Hub and at times prices were negative. These conditions adversely impacted realized
prices during certain periods and contributed to variability in operating results.

Results of
Operations – Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, there was net income of
$50,245 compared to $469,133 for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 as a result of a decrease in operating revenues and an increase in
income taxes partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses that is further explained below.
Oil and gas
sales . Revenue from oil and gas sales was $1,301,794 for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, a 29% decrease from $1,828,404 for the
same period of fiscal 2025. This resulted from a decrease in oil production volumes and a decrease in oil and natural gas prices partially
offset by an increase in natural gas production volumes. Natural gas prices have been negatively impacted by limited pipeline capacity
in the Permian Basin.

Other operating
revenues. Other revenues increased to $82,093 for the three months ended December 31, 2025, from $62,861 for the three months ended
December 31, 2024. This increase resulted from an increase in income from our most recent limited liability company investment.
Interest
income. Interest income on corporate funds increased to $23,953 for the three months ended December 31, 2025, from $7,315 for the
three months ended December 31, 2024. This increase resulted from an increase in our investment fund balances.
Production
and exploration. Production costs were $302,572 for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, a 34% decrease from $460,241 for the same period
of fiscal 2025. This was primarily the result of a decrease in lease operating expenses on wells in which we own a working interest and
a decrease in production taxes due to the decrease in oil and gas revenues.
Depreciation,
depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $664,265 for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, a
4% increase from $636,424 for the same period of fiscal 2025, primarily due to a decrease in oil and gas reserves and an increase in gas
production partially offset by a decrease in oil production and a decrease in the full cost pool amortization base.
General and
administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were $317,524 for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, a 7% decrease from
$340,514 for the same period of fiscal 2025. This was primarily due to a decrease in contract services.
Income
taxes. Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $64,106 compared an income tax benefit of $18,305 for
the three months ended December 31, 2024. The effective tax rate for state and federal taxes combined for the three months ended
December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 56% and (4%), respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2025
reflects the timing of estimated income tax accruals and other tax items recognized during the quarter. See Note 7 – Income
Taxes to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Results
of Operations – Nine Months Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, there was a net
income of $615,702 compared to net income of $1,077,370 for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily a result of
a decrease in operating revenues that is further explained below.

Oil and gas
sales . Revenue from oil and gas sales was $4,681,094 for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, a 10% decrease from $5,212,313 for
the same period of fiscal 2025. This resulted from a decrease in oil price and production volume partially offset by an increase in natural
gas price and production volume. The following table sets forth our oil and natural gas revenue, production quantities, and average prices

Other operating
revenues. Other revenues increased 61% to $251,712 for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, from $156,014 for the nine months
ended December 31, 2024. This increase resulted from an increase in income from our most recent limited liability company investment.
Interest
income. Interest income on corporate funds increased to $58,610 for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, from $50,891 for the
nine months ended December 31, 2024. This increase resulted from an increase in our investment fund balances.
Production
and exploration. Production costs were $1,076,435 for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, an 18% decrease from $1,311,066 for
the nine months ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily the result of a decrease in lease operating expenses on wells in which we
own a working interest and a decrease in production taxes due to the decrease in oil revenue partially offset by the increase gas revenue.
Depreciation,
depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $2,002,182 for the nine months ended December 31,
2025, a 14% increase from $1,760,409 for the nine months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in oil and gas reserves
and an increase in gas production partially offset by a decrease in oil production and a decrease in the full cost amortization base.
General and
administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were $1,044,225 for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, a .2% increase
from $1,042,084 for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily due to an increase in accounting and engineering services,
insurance and salaries partially offset by a decrease in contract services and stock option compensation.
Income
taxes. Income tax expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was $225,572 compared to $200,034 for the nine months
ended December 31, 2024. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 27% and 16%, respectively.

Item 3. Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The primary
sources of market risk for us include fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. All of our financial instruments are for purposes
other than trading.
Credit Risk.
Credit risk is the risk of loss as a result of nonperformance by other parties of their contractual obligations. Our primary credit risk
is related to oil and gas production sold to various purchasers and the receivables are generally not collateralized. At December 31,
2025, our largest credit risk associated with any single purchaser was $288,468 or 40% of our total oil and gas receivables. We have not
experienced any significant credit losses.
Energy Price
Risk. Our most significant market risk is the pricing applicable to our crude oil and natural gas production. Our financial condition,
results of operations, and capital resources are highly dependent upon the prevailing market prices of, and demand for, oil and natural
gas. Prices for oil and natural gas production has been volatile and unpredictable for several years, and we expect this volatility to
continue in the future.
17
Currently, prices
for natural gas have been adversely affected by temporary pipeline capacity constraints primarily in the Permian Basin.
Factors that
can cause price fluctuations include the level of global demand for petroleum products, foreign and domestic supply of oil and gas, the
establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil-exporting countries, weather conditions, the price and availability of alternative
fuels and overall political and economic conditions in oil producing and consuming countries.
For example,
in the last twelve months, the NYMEX West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) posted price for crude oil has ranged from a low of $51.25
per bbl in December 2025 to a high of $76.02 per bbl in January 2025. The Henry Hub Spot Market Price (“Henry Hub”) for natural
gas has ranged from a low of $2.65 per MMBtu in June and October 2025 to a high of $9.86 per MMBtu in January 2025. On December 31, 2025,
the WTI posted price for crude oil was $53.40 and the Henry Hub spot price for natural gas was $4.00. See Results of Operations above
for the Company’s realized prices. Pipeline capacity constraints and maintenance in the Permian Basin area had contributed to a
wider difference between WaHa Hub and the Henry Hub and at times prices were negative. These conditions adversely impacted realized prices
during certain periods and contributed to variability in operating results.
Declines in
oil and natural gas prices will materially adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and operating
results. Changes in oil and gas prices impact both estimated future net revenue and the estimated quantity of proved reserves. Any reduction
in reserves, including reductions due to price fluctuations, can reduce the borrowing base under our credit facility and adversely affect
the amount of cash flow available for capital expenditures and our ability to obtain additional capital for our acquisition, exploration
and development activities. In addition, a noncash write-down of our oil and gas properties could be required under full cost accounting
rules if prices declined significantly, even if it is only for a short period of time. Lower prices may also reduce the amount of crude
oil and natural gas that can be produced economically. Thus, we may experience material increases or decreases in reserve quantities solely
as a result of price changes and not as a result of drilling or well performance.
Similarly, any
improvements in oil and gas prices can have a favorable impact on our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources.
Oil and natural gas prices do not necessarily fluctuate in direct relationship to each other. If the average oil price had increased or
decreased by ten dollars per barrel for the first nine months of fiscal 2026, our operating revenues would have increased or decreased
$608,770. If the average gas price had increased or decreased by one dollar per mcf for the first nine months of fiscal 2026, our operating
revenues would have increased or decreased $501,830.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures

and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e). Based on such evaluation, such officers concluded that, as of December 31,
2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in
Internal Control over Financial Reporting. No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the nine months
ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
