Transatlantic Petroleum Ltd.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. General
Nature of operations
TransAtlantic Petroleum Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “TransAtlantic”) is an international oil and natural gas company engaged in acquisition, exploration, development and production. We have focused our operations in countries that have established, yet underexplored petroleum systems, are net importers of petroleum, have an existing petroleum transportation infrastructure and provide favorable commodity pricing, royalty rates and tax rates to exploration and production companies. We hold interests in developed and undeveloped oil and natural gas properties in Turkey and Bulgaria and an operated interest in a joint venture in Albania. As of May 8, 2017, approximately 48% of our outstanding common shares were beneficially owned by N. Malone Mitchell 3rd, our chief executive officer and chairman of our board of directors.
TransAtlantic is a holding company with two operating segments – Turkey and Bulgaria. Its assets consist of its ownership interests in subsidiaries that primarily own assets in Turkey and Bulgaria and an operated interest in a joint venture in Albania.
Basis of presentation
Our consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. Dollars and have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). All amounts in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise indicated. In preparing financial statements, management makes informed judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management reviews estimates, including those related to fair value measurements associated with acquisitions and financial derivatives, the recoverability and impairment of long-lived assets, contingencies and income taxes. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results may differ from these estimates. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we reclassified certain balance sheet amounts previously reported on our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 to conform to current year presentation.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
On February 24, 2017, we closed the sale of our ownership interests in our subsidiary Thrace Basin Natural Gas (Turkiye) Corporation (“TBNG”) for gross proceeds of $20.9 million, and approximate net cash proceeds of $16.3 million, effective as of March 31, 2016. The purchase price was subject to post-closing adjustments, and we agreed to escrow $3.1 million of the purchase price for 30 days to satisfy any agreed upon purchase price adjustments. We agreed to a $0.2 million reduction to the purchase price and, as of March 31, 2017, escrowed funds of $2.9 million were classified as “Joint interest and other” accounts receivable on our consolidated balance sheets. On April 10, 2017, we collected the $2.9 million of escrowed funds.
We classified the assets and liabilities of TBNG within the captions “Assets held for sale” and “Liabilities held for sale” on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016. Although the sale of TBNG met the threshold to classify its assets and liabilities as held for sale, it didn’t meet the requirements to classify its operations as discontinued as the sale wasn’t considered a strategic shift in the Company’s operations. As such, TBNG’s results of operations are classified as continuing operations for all periods presented (See Note 13, “Assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations”).
2. Recent accounting pronouncements
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”). ASU 2016-08 does not change the core principle of Topic 606, but clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. ASU 2016-08 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-08 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”). ASU 2016-10 does not change the core principle of Topic 606, but clarifies the following two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining
7
the related principles for those areas. ASU 2016-10 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-10 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities and loans, and requires entities to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for a fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Entities will apply the standard's provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 provide guidance on specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, and distributions received from equity method investees. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-15 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statements of cash flows. The amended guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-18 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.
We have reviewed other recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on our consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Based on that review, we believe that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on current or future earnings or operations.
Series A Preferred Shares
On November 4, 2016, we issued 921,000 shares of our 12.0% Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares (“Series A Preferred Shares”). Of the 921,000 Series A Preferred Shares, (i) 815,000 shares were issued in exchange for $40.75 million of our 13.0% Convertible Notes due 2017 (“2017 Notes”), at an exchange rate of 20 Series A Preferred Shares for each $1,000 principal amount of 2017 Notes, and (ii) 106,000 shares were issued and sold for $5.3 million of cash to certain holders of the 2017 Notes. All of the Series A Preferred Shares were issued at a value of $50.00 per share. We used $4.3 million of the gross proceeds to redeem a portion of the remaining 2017 Notes on January 1, 2017. The remaining proceeds were used for general corporate purposes. The Series A Preferred Shares contain a substantive conversion option, are mandatorily redeemable and convert into a fixed number of common shares. As a result, under U.S GAAP, we have classified the Series A Preferred Shares within mezzanine equity in our consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2017, there were $21.3 million of Series A Preferred Shares and $24.8 million of Series A Preferred Shares – related party outstanding.
Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations for the Series A Preferred Shares (the “Certificate of Designations”), each Series A Preferred Share may be converted at any time, at the option of the holder, into 45.754 common shares of the Company (which is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $1.0928 per common share and is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or other fundamental changes). During the period ending on November 4, 2017, the conversion rate will be adjusted on an economic weighted average anti-dilution basis for the issuance of common shares for cash at a price below the conversion price then in effect. Such anti-dilution protection excludes (i) dividends paid on the Series A Preferred Shares in common shares, (ii) issuances of common shares in connection with acquisitions, (iii) issuances of common shares under currently outstanding convertible notes and warrants and (iv) issuances of common shares in connection with employee compensation arrangements and employee benefit plans. This non-standard dilution adjustment clause results in a contingent beneficial conversion feature.
8
If not converted sooner, on November 4, 2024, we are required to redeem the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares in cash at a price per share equal to the liquidation preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends. At any time on or after November 4, 2020, we may redeem all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Shares at the redemption prices listed below (expressed as a percentage of the liquidation preference amount per share) plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the date of redemption, if the closing sale price of the common shares equals or exceeds 150% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 10 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in a period of 20 consecutive trading days, including the last trading day of such 20 trading day period, ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the business day on which we issue a notice of optional redemption. The redemption prices for the 12-month period starting on the date below are:
Period Commencing |
Redemption Price |
November 4, 2020 |
105.000% |
November 4, 2021 |
103.000% |
November 4, 2022 |
101.000% |
November 4, 2023 and thereafter |
100.000% |
Additionally, upon the occurrence of a change of control, we are required to offer to redeem the Series A Preferred Shares within 120 days after the first date on which such change of control occurred, for cash at a redemption price equal to the liquidation preference per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.
Dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares are payable quarterly at our election in cash, common shares or a combination of cash and common shares at an annual dividend rate of 12.0% of the liquidation preference if paid all in cash or 16.0% of the liquidation preference if paid in common shares. If paid partially in cash and partially in common shares, the dividend rate on the cash portion is 12.0%, and the dividend rate on the common share portion is 16.0%. Dividends are payable quarterly, on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year. The holders of the Series A Preferred Shares also are entitled to participate pro-rata in any dividends paid on the common shares on an as-converted-to-common shares basis. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we paid $1.4 million in cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares, which is recorded in our consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income under the caption “Interest and other expense”.
Except as required by Bermuda law the holders of Series A Preferred Shares have no voting rights, except that for so long as at least 400,000 Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding, the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares voting as a separate class have the right to elect two directors to our Board of Directors. For so long as between 80,000 and 399,999 Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding, the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares voting as a separate class have the right to elect one director to our Board of Directors. Upon less than 80,000 Series A Preferred Shares remaining outstanding, any directors elected by the holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall immediately resign from our Board of Directors.
The Certificate of Designation also provides that without the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, we will not issue indebtedness for money borrowed or other securities which are senior to the Series A Preferred Shares in excess of the greater of (i) $100 million or (ii) 35% of our PV-10 of proved reserves as disclosed in our most recent independent reserve report filed or furnished by us on EDGAR. In addition, until our 2017 Notes are repaid in full, we will not issue indebtedness for money borrowed (other than ordinary trade indebtedness and up to $30.0 million borrowed from DenizBank, A.S. (“DenizBank”)), unless the net proceeds thereof are used (i) to redeem, retire or repay the 2017 Notes, (ii) spud, drill or complete two designated wells, or (iii) used in connection with collateralization or guarantees with respect to our hedging efforts.
We have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a shelf registration statement for the resale of the Series A Preferred Shares and the common shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares prior to November 5, 2017 and have such shelf registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as soon as practicable after filing.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we recorded foreign currency translation adjustments, which decreased proved properties and increased accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders’ equity on our consolidated balance sheet.
At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we excluded $0.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively, from the depletion calculation for proved development wells currently in progress and for costs associated with fields currently not in production.
At March 31, 2017, the capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depletion, included $12.5 million relating to acquisition costs of proved properties, which are being depleted by the unit-of-production method using total proved reserves, and $64.2 million relating to well costs and additional development costs, which are being depleted by the unit-of-production method using proved developed reserves.
At December 31, 2016, the capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties included $13.2 million relating to acquisition costs of proved properties, which are being amortized by the unit-of-production method using total proved reserves, and $66.7 million relating to well costs and additional development costs, which are being amortized by the unit-of-production method using proved developed reserves.
Impairments of proved properties and impairment of exploratory well costs
Proved oil and natural gas properties are reviewed for impairment when events and circumstances indicate the carrying value of such properties may not be recoverable. We primarily use Level 3 inputs to determine fair value, including but are not limited to, estimates of proved reserves, future commodity prices, the timing and amount of future production and capital expenditures and discount rates commensurate with the risk reflective of the lives remaining for the respective oil and natural gas properties.
During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded $0.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of impairment of proved properties and exploratory well costs which are primarily measured using Level 3 inputs.
Capitalized cost greater than one year
As of March 31, 2017, we had $1.9 million of exploratory well costs capitalized for the Pinar-1 well, in Turkey, which we spud in March 2014. We are currently sidetracking the Pinar-1 well.

At March 31, 2017, we have classified $3.5 million of inventory as a current asset, which represents our expected inventory consumption in the next twelve months. We classify our materials and supply inventory as long-term assets because such materials will ultimately be classified as long-term assets when the material is used in the drilling of a well.
At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we excluded $12.6 million and $14.4 million of inventory, respectively, from depreciation as the inventory had not been placed into service.
5. Asset retirement obligations

Our ARO is measured using primarily Level 3 inputs. The significant unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging costs, remediation costs, inflation rate and well life. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs.
6. Commodity derivative instruments
We use collar derivative contracts to economically hedge against the variability in cash flows associated with the forecasted sale of a portion of our future oil production. We have not designated the derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes, and accordingly, we record the derivative contracts at fair value and recognize changes in fair value in earnings as they occur.
To the extent that a legal right of offset exists, we net the value of our derivative contracts with the same counterparty in our consolidated balance sheets. All of our oil derivative contracts are settled based upon Brent crude oil pricing. We recognize gains and losses related to these contracts on a fair value basis in our consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income under the caption “Gain on commodity derivative contracts.” Settlements of derivative contracts are included in operating activities on our consolidated statements of cash flows under the caption “Cash settlement on commodity derivative contracts.”
During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded a net gain on commodity derivative contracts of $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
11
At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had outstanding derivative contracts with respect to our future crude oil production as set forth in the tables below (See Note 14, “Subsequent Events”):
