ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Introduction

Everflow Eastern Partners, L.P. (the “Company”), a Delaware limited partnership, engages in the business of oil and gas acquisition, exploration, development and production. The Company was formed for the purpose of consolidating the business and oil and gas properties of Everflow Eastern, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“EEI”), and the oil and gas properties owned by certain limited partnerships and working interest programs managed or operated by EEI (the “Programs”). Everflow Management Limited, LLC (the “General Partner”), an Ohio limited liability company, is the general partner of the Company.

Exchange Offer. The Company made an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to acquire the common shares of EEI (the “EEI Shares”) and the interests of investors in the Programs (collectively the “Interests”) in exchange for units of limited partnership interest (the “Units”). The Exchange Offer was made pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 19, 1990 (the “Registration Statement”) and the Prospectus dated December 19, 1990, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b).

The Exchange Offer terminated on February 15, 1991 and holders of Interests with an aggregate value (as determined by the Company for purposes of the Exchange Offer) of $66,996,249 accepted the Exchange Offer and tendered their Interests. Effective on such date, the Company acquired such Interests, which included partnership interests and working interests in the Programs, and all of the outstanding EEI Shares. Of the Interests tendered in the Exchange Offer, $28,565,244 was represented by the EEI Shares and $38,431,005 by the remaining Interests.

The parties who accepted the Exchange Offer and tendered their Interests received an aggregate of 6,632,464 Units. Everflow Management Company, a predecessor of the General Partner of the Company, contributed Interests with an aggregate exchange value of $670,980 in exchange for a 1% interest in the Company.

The Company. The Company was organized in September 1990. The principal executive offices of the Company, the General Partner and EEI are located at 585 West Main Street, Canfield, Ohio 44406. The telephone number is (330) 533-2692.

Description of the Business

General. The Company has participated on an on-going basis in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of undeveloped oil and gas properties and has pursued the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties.

Subsidiaries. The Company has two subsidiaries. EEI was organized as an Ohio corporation in February 1979 and, since the consummation of the Exchange Offer, has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. EEI is engaged in the business of oil and gas production and operations management.

A-1 Storage of Canfield, Ltd. (“A-1 Storage”) was organized as an Ohio limited liability company in 1995 and is 99% owned by the Company and 1% owned by EEI. A-1 Storage’s business includes leasing of office space to the Company as well as rental of storage units to non-affiliated parties.

Current Operations. The properties of the Company consist in large part of fractional undivided working interests in properties containing proved reserves of oil and gas located in the Appalachian Basin region of Ohio and Pennsylvania. Approximately 7640% of the estimated total future cash inflows related to the Company’s crude oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, ~~2022~~2023 are attributable to natural gas reserves. The majority of such properties are located in Ohio and consist primarily of proved producing properties with established production histories.

The Company’s operations since February 1991 primarily involve the production and sale of oil and gas and the drilling and development of approximately 444 (net) wells. The Company serves as the operator of approximately 72% of the gross wells and 89% of the net wells which comprise the Company’s properties during the year ~~2022~~2023.

The Company expects to hold its producing properties until the oil and gas reserves underlying such properties are substantially depleted. However, the Company may, from time to time, sell any of its producing or other properties or leasehold interests if the Company believes that such sale would be in its best interest.

Sales of Deep Rights. The Company has sold its deep rights in certain Ohio and Pennsylvania properties for cash consideration as part of various agreements with multiple purchasers (the "Dispositions"). The Dispositions included no producing reserves, and the Company retained the rights to the shallow portion of all acreage sold in addition to some of the rights to a portion of the deep acreage sold, subject to the agreements. During 2012, the Company sold approximately 30,600 acres in conjunction with the Dispositions.

Business Plan. The Company continually evaluates whether it can develop oil and gas properties at historical levels given the current costs of drilling and development activities, the current prices of crude oil and natural gas, and the Company’s ability to find oil and gas in commercially productive quantities. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.”

Table of Contents

Acquisition of Prospects. From time to time, the Company maintains a leasehold inventory from which the General Partner will select oil and gas prospects for development by the Company. Prior to 2000, EEI generated approximately 90% of the prospects which were drilled. Since 2000, the Company began generating fewer prospects and has participated in more joint ventures with other operators. As of December 31, ~~2022~~2023, the Company’s ~~current~~has no leasehold inventory ~~consists of approximately 14 prospects in various stages of maturity representing less than 100 net acres under lease~~.

In choosing oil and gas prospects for the Company, the General Partner does not attempt to manage the risks of drilling through a policy of selecting diverse prospects in various geographic areas or with the potential of oil and gas production from different geological formations. Rather, substantially all prospects are expected to be located in the Appalachian Basin of Ohio and Pennsylvania and are to be drilled primarily to the Clinton/Medina Sands geological formation or closely related oil and gas formations in such area. The Company also has the right to participate in the development of certain wells in the Utica geological formation with various joint venture partners. In 2022, the Company elected to participate in the development of ~~one~~four ~~well~~wells in the Utica geological formation. AsThe ofwells ~~March~~were ~~10,~~completed ~~2023, the well is still being developed~~ and isput ~~not~~into ~~yet~~production ~~producing~~during 2023.

Acquisition of Producing Properties. As a potential means of increasing its reserve base, the Company expects to evaluate opportunities which it may be presented with to acquire oil and gas producing properties from third parties in addition to its ~~ongoing~~potential leasehold acquisition and development activities. The Company did not acquire any producing oil and gas properties during ~~2022~~2023 or ~~2021~~2022.

The Company will continue to evaluate properties for acquisition. Such properties may include, in addition to working interests, royalty interests, net profit interests and production payments, other forms of direct or indirect ownership interests in oil and gas production, and properties associated with the production of oil and gas. The Company also may acquire general or limited partner interests in general or limited partnerships and interests in joint ventures, corporations or other entities that have, or are formed to acquire, explore for or develop, oil and gas or conduct other activities associated with the ownership of oil and gas production.

Funding for Activities. The Company has historically financed its current operations, including undeveloped leasehold acquisition activities, primarily through cash generated from operations and existing cash and equivalents. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Results of Operations.”

The Company is permitted to incur indebtedness for any partnership purpose. It is currently anticipated that any future indebtedness would consist primarily of borrowings from commercial banks. The Company ~~and EEI~~ had no new borrowings in ~~2021~~2022 or ~~2022~~2023 and no principal indebtedness was outstanding as of March 1011, ~~2023~~2024. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Although the Company’s Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership dated as of February 10, 2010 (as amended from time to time, the “Partnership Agreement”) does not contain any specific restrictions on borrowings, the Company has no specific plans to borrow for the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties or for any other purpose. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

The Company owns a significant amount of oil and gas reserves. The Company generally does not expect to borrow funds, from whatever source, in excess of 40% of its total value of proved developed reserves (as determined using the Company’s Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows). However, there can be no assurance that the Company’s future obligations and liabilities would not lead to borrowings in excess of such amount. Based upon its current business plan, management has no present intention to cause the Company to borrow in excess of this amount. The Company has estimated the value of proved and proved developed reserves, determined as of December 31, 2022, net of asset retirement obligations, which aggregate to $34,634,000 (Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows).

Marketing. The ability of the Company to market crude oil and natural gas found in and produced on its properties will depend on a number of factors beyond its control, and the impact of such factors, either individually or in the aggregate, cannot be anticipated or measured. These factors include, among others, the amount of domestic oil and gas production and foreign imports available from other sources, the capacity and proximity of pipelines, governmental regulations, and general market demand.

Crude Oil. Any crude oil produced from the properties can be sold at the prevailing field price to one or more of a number of unaffiliated purchasers in the area. ~~Generally, purchase contracts for the sale of crude oil are cancelable on 30 days’ notice.~~ The price paid by these purchasers is generally an established or “posted” price which is offered to all producers in the same region. Historically, posted prices in the areas where the Company’s properties are located have generally been somewhat lower than the spot market prices. There have been substantial fluctuations in crude oil prices in recent years, including ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022.

The price of crude oil in the Appalachian Basin has ranged from a low of $8.50 per barrel in December 1998 to a high of $138.00 in July 2008. As of March 1011, ~~2023~~2024, $7273.6893 per barrel was the prevailing field price in the Appalachian Basin area, the Company’s principal area of operation. There can be no assurance that prices will not be subject to continual fluctuations. Future crude oil prices are difficult to predict because of the impact of worldwide economic trends, supply and demand variables, and such non-economic factors as the disruption in global supply resulting from ~~the~~various ~~conflict~~global ~~in Ukraine and related sanctions on Russia~~conflicts, political impact on pricing policies by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”), governmental instability in foreign oil producing countries, energy and environmental policy of federal, state and local governments, and the possibility of other supply interruptions. To the extent the prices that the Company receives for its crude oil production decline, the Company’s revenues from crude oil production will be reduced accordingly.

Since January 1993, the Company has sold substantially all of its crude oil production to one oil purchaser.

Natural Gas. The deliverability and price of natural gas is subject to various factors affecting the supply and demand of natural gas as well as the effect of federal regulations. Prior to 2000, there had been a surplus of natural gas available for delivery to pipelines and other purchasers. During 2000, decreases in worldwide energy production capability and increases in energy consumption resulted in a shortage in natural gas supplies. This resulted in increases in natural gas prices throughout the United States, including the Appalachian Basin. During 2001, lower energy consumption and increased natural gas supplies reduced prices to historical levels. During the period from 2002 through the first half of 2008, shortages in natural gas supplies had resulted from increased energy consumption from industrial, commercial, residential and electric power usage. During the second half of 2008 and through 2016, excess natural gas supplies resulted from the combination of increased production from integrated and independent producers and decreased industrial and commercial energy consumption resulting from the global and United States financial crises and recession. During 2017 and through 2019, excess natural gas supplies were the continued result of increased production and production capacity from regional integrated and independent producers. During 2020, excess natural gas supplies were primarily the result of decreased industrial and commercial energy consumption resulting from global shutdowns related to COVID-19. During 2021 and through 2022, shortages in natural gas supplies were the continued result of increased industrial and commercial energy consumption following COVID-19, global supply chain issues, regulatory actions and executive orders issued by the federal government and decreased supply in Europe resulting from the conflict in Ukraine. During 2023, excess natural gas supplies were the continued result of increased production and production capacity from regional integrated and independent producers. This resulted in ~~increases~~significant decreases in natural gas prices throughout the United States, including the Appalachian Basin. From time to time, especially in summer months, seasonal restrictions on natural gas production have occurred as a result of distribution system restrictions.

Over the ten years prior to 2002, the Company had followed a practice of selling a significant portion of its natural gas pursuant to Intermediate Term Adjustable Price Gas Purchase Agreements (the “East Ohio Contracts”) with one gas purchaser (the “Major Gas Purchaser”). Pursuant to the East Ohio Contracts and subject to certain restrictions and adjustments, including termination clauses, the Major Gas Purchaser was obligated to purchase, and the Company was obligated to sell, all natural gas production from a specified list of wells. Pricing under the East Ohio Contracts was adjusted annually, up or down, by an amount equal to 80% of the increase or decrease in the Major Gas Purchaser’s average Gas Cost Recovery rates.

Since 2002, the Company had multiple annual or biennial contracts with various gas purchasers, including the Major Gas Purchaser, which obligated the gas purchasers, including the Major Gas Purchaser, to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract periods. The price paid for natural gas purchased by the gas purchasers varies based on quantities committed to by the Company from time to time. Natural gas sold under these contracts in excess of the committed quantities is sold at the month’s closing price at Henry Hub, which is the location for pricing NYMEX, plus or minus regional basis adjustments, as per the contracts. These contracts are not considered derivatives, but have been designated as annual sales contracts as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. During ~~2022~~2023, natural gas purchased by the Major Gas Purchaser covered production from approximately ~~570~~560 gross operated wells. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Commodity Pricing, Risk Management Activities and Inflation.”

Since the second half of 2013, the market price for natural gas in the Appalachian Basin has experienced a decline relative to the price at Henry Hub primarily as a result of regional basis adjustments resulting primarily from the increased supply of natural gas in the Ohio and Pennsylvania regions. Changes in the market price for natural gas, including regional basis, impact the Company’s revenues, earnings and liquidity. The Company is unable to predict potential future movements in the market price for natural gas, including regional basis, and thus cannot predict the ultimate impact of prices on its operations.

During 2022, no one natural gas purchaser accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s natural gas sales other than the Major Gas Purchaser, whose purchases of natural gas from operated wells accounted for approximately 79% of the Company’s consolidated natural gas sales. The Company expects that the Major Gas Purchaser will be the only material natural gas purchaser during fiscal year 2023.

Seasonality. During summer months, seasonal restrictions on natural gas production have sometimes occurred as a result of distribution system restrictions. These production restrictions, and the nature of the Company’s business, can result in seasonal fluctuations in the Company’s revenue, with the Company sometimes receiving more income in the first and fourth quarters of its fiscal year.

Title to Properties. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, the Company performs a limited investigation as to ownership of leasehold acreage at the time of acquisition and conducts a title examination and necessary curative work prior to the commencement of drilling operations on a tract. Title examinations have been performed for substantially all of the producing oil and gas properties owned by the Company with regard to (i) substantial tracts of land forming a portion of such oil and gas properties and (ii) the wellhead location of such properties. The Company believes that title to its properties is acceptable although such properties may be subject to royalty, overriding royalty, carried and other similar interests in contractual arrangements customary in the oil and gas industry. Also, such properties may be subject to liens incident to operating agreements and liens for current taxes not yet due, as well as other comparatively minor encumbrances.

Competition. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive in all its phases. The Company encounters strong competition from major and independent oil and gas companies in acquiring economically desirable prospects as well as in marketing production therefrom and obtaining external financing. Major oil and gas companies, independent concerns, drilling and production purchase programs and individual producers and operators are active bidders for desirable oil and gas properties, as well as the equipment and labor required to operate those properties. Many of the Company’s competitors have financial resources, personnel and facilities substantially greater than those of the Company.

The availability of a ready market for the oil and gas production of the Company depends in part on the cost and availability of alternative fuels, the level of consumer demand, the extent of other domestic production of oil and gas, the extent of importation of foreign oil and gas, the cost of and proximity to pipelines and other transportation facilities, regulations by state and federal authorities and the cost of complying with applicable environmental regulations. The volatility of prices for oil and gas, and the continued oversupply of domestic natural gas have, at times, including ~~2022~~2023, resulted in a curtailment in exploration for and development of oil and gas properties.

- 6 -

Table of Contents

There is also extensive competition in the market for gas produced by the Company. Increases in energy consumption have at times brought about a shortage in energy supplies. This, in turn, has resulted in substantial competition for markets historically served by domestic natural gas resources both with alternate sources of energy, such as residual fuel oil, and among domestic gas suppliers. As a result, at times there has been volatility in crude oil and natural gas prices, widespread curtailment of gas production and delays in producing and marketing gas after it is discovered. Changes in government regulations relating to the production, transportation and marketing of natural gas have also resulted in significant changes in the historical marketing patterns of the industry. Generally, these changes have resulted in the abandonment by many pipelines of long-term contracts for the purchase of natural gas, the development by gas producers of their own marketing programs to take advantage of new regulations requiring pipelines to transport gas for regulated fees, and an increasing tendency to rely on short-term sales contracts priced at spot market prices. See “Marketing” appearing on page 4 herein.

Gas prices, which were once effectively determined by government regulations, are now influenced largely by the effects of competition. Competitors in this market include other producers, gas pipelines and their affiliated marketing companies, independent marketers, and providers of alternate energy supplies.

Regulation of Oil and Gas Industry. The exploration, production and sale of oil and natural gas are subject to numerous state and federal laws and regulations. Such laws and regulations govern a wide variety of matters, including the drilling and spacing of wells, allowable rates of production, marketing, pricing and protection of the environment. Such regulations may restrict the rate at which the Company’s wells produce crude oil and natural gas below the rate at which such wells could produce in the absence of such regulations. In addition, legislation and regulations concerning the oil and gas industry are constantly being reviewed and proposed. Ohio and Pennsylvania, the states in which the Company owns properties and operates, have statutes and regulations governing a number of the matters enumerated above. Compliance with the laws and regulations affecting the oil and gas industry generally increases the Company’s costs of doing business and consequently affects its profitability. Inasmuch as such laws and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted, the Company is unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such regulations.

The interstate transportation and sale for resale of natural gas is regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the “FERC”) under the Natural Gas Act of 1938. The wellhead price of natural gas is also regulated by the FERC under the authority of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (“NGPA”). Subsequently, the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act of 1989 (the “Decontrol Act”) was enacted on July 26, 1989. The Decontrol Act provided for the phasing out of price regulation under the NGPA commencing on the date of enactment and completely eliminated all such gas price regulation on January 1, 1993. In addition, the FERC has adopted and proposed several rules or orders concerning transportation and marketing of natural gas. The impact of these rules and other regulatory developments on the Company cannot be predicted. It is expected that the Company will sell natural gas produced by its oil and gas properties to a number of purchasers, including various industrial customers, pipeline companies and local public utilities, although the majority of natural gas sales from operated wells will be sold to the Major Gas Purchaser as discussed earlier.

Table of Contents

As a result of the NGPA and the Decontrol Act, the Company’s natural gas production is no longer subject to price regulation. Natural gas which has been removed from price regulation is subject only to that price contractually agreed upon between the producer and purchaser. Under current market conditions, deregulated gas prices under new contracts tend to be substantially lower than most regulated price ceilings originally prescribed by the NGPA. In addition to the deregulation of gas prices, the FERC has proposed and enacted several rules or orders concerning transportation and marketing of natural gas. In 1992, the FERC finalized Order 636, a rule pertaining to the restructuring of interstate pipeline services. This rule requires interstate pipelines to unbundle transportation and sales services by separately pricing the various components of their services, such as supply, gathering, transportation and sales. These pipeline companies are required to provide customers only the specific service desired without regard to the source for the purchase of the gas. Although the Company is not an interstate pipeline company, it is likely that this regulation may indirectly impact the Company by increasing competition in the marketing of natural gas. Regulation of the production, transportation and sale of oil and gas by federal and state agencies has a significant effect on the Company and its operating results. Certain states, including Ohio and Pennsylvania, have established rules and regulations requiring permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning the spacing of wells. The ultimate impact of these rules and other regulatory developments on the Company cannot be predicted.

In addition, from time to time, prices for either crude oil or natural gas have been regulated by the federal government, and such price regulation could be re-imposed at any time in the future.

Environmental Regulation. The activities of the Company are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect the environment. The Company does not conduct any offshore activities. Operations of the Company on onshore oil properties may generally be liable for clean-up costs to the federal government under the Federal Clean Water Act for up to $50,000,000 for each incident of oil or hazardous pollution substance contamination and for up to $50,000,000, plus response costs, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 for hazardous substance contamination. Liability is unlimited in cases of willful negligence or misconduct, and there is no limit on liability for environmental clean-up costs or damages with respect to claims by the state or private persons or entities. In addition, the Company is required by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to prepare and implement spill prevention control and countermeasure plans relating to the possible discharge of oil into navigable waters; and the EPA will further require permits to authorize the discharge of pollutants into navigable waters. State and local permits or approvals may also be needed with respect to waste-water discharges and air pollutant emissions. Violations of environment-related lease conditions or environmental permits can result in substantial civil and criminal penalties as well as potential court injunctions curtailing operations. Such enforcement liabilities can result from prosecution by public or private entities.

Various state and governmental agencies are considering, and some have adopted, other laws and regulations regarding environmental protection which could adversely affect the proposed business activities of the Company. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, current and future regulations may have on the operations of the Company.

Operating Hazards and Uninsured Risks. The Company’s crude oil and natural gas operations are subject to all operating hazards and risks normally incident to drilling for and producing crude oil and natural gas, such as encountering unusual formations and pressures, blow-outs, environmental pollution and personal injury. The Company maintains such insurance coverage as it believes to be appropriate taking into account the size of the Company and its operations. Losses can occur from an uninsurable risk or in amounts in excess of existing insurance coverage. The occurrence of an event which is not insured or not fully insured could have an adverse impact on the Company’s revenues and earnings.

Table of Contents

In certain instances, the Company may continue to engage in exploration and development operations through drilling programs formed with non-industry investors. In addition, the Company will conduct a significant portion of its operations with other parties in connection with the drilling operations conducted on properties in which it has an interest. In these arrangements, all joint interest parties, including the Company, may be fully liable for their proportionate share of all costs of such operations. Further, if any joint interest party defaults on its obligations to pay its share of costs, the other joint interest parties may be required to fund the deficiency until, if ever, it can be collected from the defaulting party. As a result of the foregoing or similar oilfield circumstances, the Company could become liable for amounts significantly in excess of amounts originally anticipated to be expended in connection with such operations. In addition, financial difficulty for an operator of oil and gas properties could result in the Company’s and other joint interest owners’ interests in properties and the wells and equipment located thereon becoming subject to liens and claims of creditors, notwithstanding the fact that non-defaulting joint interest owners and the Company may have previously paid to the operator the amounts necessary to pay their share of such costs and expenses.

Data Security Considerations. The Company has implemented data security measures and has not, to date, been subject to any material data security breaches, data loss or cyber-attacks. However, despite the Company’s efforts to protect sensitive information and confidential and personal data, comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations and implement data security measures, the Company’s facilities and systems may be vulnerable to security breaches and other data loss, including cyber-attacks. In addition, it is not possible to predict the impact on the Company’s business of the future loss, alteration or misappropriation of information in the Company’s possession related to the Company and EEI’s employees, former employees, or others. This could lead to negative publicity, legal claims, theft, modification or destruction of proprietary information or key information, damage to or inaccessibility of critical systems, operational disruptions and other significant costs, which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s revenues and earnings.

Hydraulic Fracturing. Many of the Company’s exploration and production operations depend on the use of hydraulic fracturing to enhance production from oil and gas wells. This technology involves the injection of fluids - usually consisting mostly of water but typically including small amounts of several chemical additives - as well as sand into a well under high pressure in order to create fractures in the formation that allow oil or gas to flow more freely to the wellbore. Most of our wells would not be economical without the use of hydraulic fracturing to stimulate production from the well. Due to concerns raised relating to potential impacts of hydraulic fracturing on groundwater quality, legislative and regulatory efforts at the federal level and in some states have been initiated to render permitting and compliance requirements more stringent for hydraulic fracturing or prohibit the activity altogether. Such efforts could have an adverse effect on crude oil and natural gas production activities.

Conflicts of Interest. The Partnership Agreement grants the General Partner broad discretionary authority to make decisions on matters such as the Company’s acquisition of or participation in a drilling prospect or a producing property. To limit the General Partner’s management discretion might prevent it from managing the Company properly. However, because the business activities of the affiliates of the General Partner on the one hand and the Company on the other hand are the same, potential conflicts of interest are likely to exist, and it is not possible to completely mitigate such conflicts.

- 9 -

Table of Contents

The Partnership Agreement contains certain restrictions designed to mitigate, to the extent practicable, these conflicts of interest. The agreement restricts, among other things, (i) the cost at which the General Partner or its affiliates may acquire properties from or sell properties to the Company; (ii) loans between the General Partner, its affiliates and the Company, and interest and other charges incurred in connection therewith; and (iii) the use and handling of the Company’s funds by the General Partner.

Employees. As of March 1011, ~~2023~~2024, EEI had 17 full-time and 2 part-time employees. These employees are primarily engaged in the following areas of business operations: seven in general administration, five in field operations, five in accounting and two in land and lease administration.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

The Company has implemented data security measures and has not, to date, been subject to any material data security breaches, data loss or cyber-attacks. However, despite the Company’s efforts to protect sensitive information and confidential and personal data, comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations and implement data security measures, the Company’s facilities and systems may be vulnerable to security breaches and other data loss, including cyber-attacks. In addition, it is not possible to predict the impact on the Company’s business of the future loss, alteration or misappropriation of information in the Company’s possession related to the Company and EEI’s employees, former employees, or others. This could lead to negative publicity, legal claims, theft, modification or destruction of proprietary information or key information, damage to or inaccessibility of critical systems, operational disruptions and other significant costs, which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s revenues and earnings.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Set forth below is certain information regarding the oil and gas properties of the Company which are located in the Appalachian Basin of Ohio and Pennsylvania.

In the following discussion, “gross” refers to the total acres or wells in which the Company has a working interest and “net” refers to gross acres or wells multiplied by the Company’s percentage of working interests therein. Because royalty interests held by the Company will not affect the Company’s working interests in its properties, neither gross nor net acres or wells reflect such royalty interests.

Natural Gas and Crude Oil Reserves. Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil and natural gas, which, by an analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. Prices include consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual arrangements, but not on escalations based upon future conditions. The estimated reserves include reserves attributable to the Company’s direct ownership interests in crude oil and natural gas properties as well as the reserves attributable to the Company’s percentage interests in crude oil and natural gas properties owned through joint ventures. All of the reserves are generally located in the Appalachian Basin region of Ohio and Pennsylvania. The Company bases its estimates of proved reserves on the 12-month un-weighted average price of the first-day-of-the-month price for each calendar month of the year preceding the evaluation date. The Company then applies any basis adjustments specifically applicable to each oil and gas property based on location and pricing details. The natural gas prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $51.3375 and $25.9433 per MCF at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 respectively, and the crude oil prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $9074.2971 and $6390.1629 per BBL at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

Reserve estimates are imprecise and may change as additional information becomes available. Furthermore, estimates of natural gas and crude oil reserves are projections based on engineering data. There are uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of this data as well as the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of natural gas and crude oil that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.

The preparation of the Company’s natural gas and crude oil reserve estimates was completed in accordance with ~~our~~the Company’s prescribed internal control procedures, which include verification of input data delivered to the Company’s third-party reserve specialist, as well as a multi-functional management review. For the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023, the Company retained Wright & Company, Inc. (“Wright & Company”), a third-party, independent petroleum engineering firm, to prepare a report of proved reserves. The reserves report included a detailed review of all of the Company’s crude oil and natural gas properties. Wright & Company’s evaluation was based on more than 40 years of experience in the estimation of and evaluation of petroleum reserves, specified economic parameters, operating conditions, and government regulations applicable as of December 31, ~~2022~~2023. The Wright & Company report, including the qualifications of the chief technical person responsible for the report, was prepared in accordance with generally accepted petroleum engineering and evaluation principles and is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

⁽¹⁾

All wells are located in the United States. All wells are development wells. No exploratory wells were drilled.

⁽²⁾

A productive well is any well that is not a dry well. A dry well is a well that proves to be incapable of producing either oil or gas in sufficient quantities to justify completion as an oil and gas well. Completion refers to installation of permanent equipment for production of oil and gas, or, in the case of a dry well, to reporting to the appropriate authority that the well has been abandoned. All wells drilled were completed during the fiscal year, regardless of when drilling was initiated.

As the above table indicates, the Company’s cash flow from operations before working capital changes of $93.81 million represented 9842% of total cash sources provided during ~~2022~~2023, and the Company’s cash flow from operations before working capital changes of $59.58 million represented ~~100~~98% of total cash sources provided during ~~2021~~2022. The ~~increase~~decrease in cash flow from operations before working capital changes in ~~2022~~2023, as compared to the prior comparable period, was primarily due to ~~more~~less crude oil and natural gas sales, net of ~~increased~~decreased production costs and increases in DD&A and accretion expense recognized during ~~2022~~2023 as compared to ~~2021~~2022. Changes in working capital other than cash and equivalents increased cash by $655,000 and $203,000 during ~~2022~~2023 and ~~decreased~~2022, ~~cash by $1~~respectively.5 ~~million during 2021.~~ The $~~203~~655,000 in cash provided by changes in working capital other than cash and equivalents in ~~2022~~2023 was primarily the result of ana ~~increase~~decrease in production accounts ~~payable~~receivable, offset somewhat by an increase in ~~production~~other ~~accounts~~current ~~receivable~~assets. The ~~increase~~decrease in ~~accounts payable was primarily the result of an increase in~~ production ~~and related other payables. The increase in production~~ accounts receivable is primarily the combined result of ~~higher~~lower average natural gas ~~and crude oil~~ prices received, ~~offset~~and ~~somewhat by~~ a decrease in natural gas volumes produced ~~and crude oil volumes shipped~~ during the current receivable period as compared to the prior comparable production period. The decrease in natural gas volumes produced ~~and crude oil volumes shipped~~ is primarily the result of ~~normal~~additional ~~production~~Company ~~decline~~operated ~~associated~~properties ~~with~~being ~~existing~~voluntarily ~~oil~~shut-in ~~and gas properties~~ during the current receivable production period asthat ~~compared~~were tootherwise producing during the prior comparable production period. The increase in other current assets is primarily related to refundable Federal payroll credits applied for by the Company in 2023.

The Company used cash in investing activities of $31.75 million and $13.87 million in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively. The ~~$1.9~~decrease ~~million increase~~ in cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of ~~additional~~less cash used for purchases of investments ~~and additional purchases of property and equipment~~ made in ~~2022~~2023 as compared to those made in the prior comparable period~~, offset somewhat by less proceeds from disposal of property and equipment in 2022 as compared to the prior comparable period~~.

The Company used cash in financing activities of $5.68 million and $~~39,000~~5.6 million in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively. The ~~$5.6 million~~ increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily the result of additional cash ~~distributions~~used ~~paid~~ to ~~Unitholders~~fund inthe ~~2022~~2023 asRepurchase ~~compared~~Right, tooffset noby less cash distributions paid to Unitholders in 2023 as compared to the prior comparable period.

The Company’s ending cash and equivalents balance of $139.26 million at December 31, ~~2022~~2023, as well as on-going monthly operating cash flows, should be adequate to meet short-term cash requirements. The Company intends to make a $0.5020 per Unit cash distribution in April ~~2023~~2024.

The Company participated in the drilling of ~~one~~four new oil and gas ~~property~~properties in ~~2022~~2023. The Company’s share of proved gas reserves ~~increased~~decreased by 513.68 BCF, or 3463%, between December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023, while proved oil reserves ~~increased~~decreased by 62111,000 BBLS, or 1828%, between December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023. The Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows of the Company’s reserves ~~increased~~decreased by $2738.83 million between December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023. The primary reasons for this ~~increase~~decrease were due to ~~increases~~decreases in average natural gas and crude oil prices in ~~2022~~2023, as compared to the prior comparable period, and the related ~~upward~~downward revisions in quantities of natural gas and crude oil reserves between December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2022~~2023.

The Partnership Agreement provides that the Company annually offers to repurchase for cash up to 10% of the then outstanding Units, to the extent Unitholders offer Units to the Company for repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right entitles any Unitholder, between May 1 and June 30 of each year, to notify the Company of his or her election to exercise the Repurchase Right and have the Company acquire such Units. The price to be paid for any such Units will be calculated based upon the audited financial statements of the Company as of December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the Repurchase Right is to be effective and independently prepared reserve reports. The price per Unit will be equal to 66% of the adjusted book value of the Company allocable to the Units, divided by the number of Units outstanding at the beginning of the year in which the applicable Repurchase Right is to be effective less all Interim Cash Distributions received by a Unitholder. The adjusted book value is calculated by adding partner’s equity, the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows and the tax effect included in the Standardized Measure and subtracting from that sum the carrying value of oil and gas properties, net of undeveloped lease costs. If more than 10% of the then outstanding Units are tendered during any period during which the Repurchase Right is to be effective, the Investor’s Units so tendered shall be prorated for purposes of calculating the actual number of Units to be acquired during any such period. The Company accepted an aggregate of ~~137~~121,~~455~~354 of its Units of limited partnership interest at a price of $02.3651 per Unit pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Offer to Purchase dated April 30, ~~2021~~2022. The Company accepted an aggregate of ~~121~~526,~~354~~433 of its Units of limited partnership interest at a price of $26.5136 per Unit pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Offer to Purchase dated April 30, ~~2022~~2023. The Company has determined that the price associated with the ~~2023~~2024 Repurchase Right, based upon the December 31, ~~2022~~2023 calculation, is estimated to be $61.3666 per Unit, net of a $0.5020 per Unit distribution expected to be made in April ~~2023~~2024.

Revenues for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 ~~increased~~decreased $48.74 million, or 4958%, compared to the prior comparable period. This ~~increase~~decrease was due primarily to an ~~increase~~decrease in crude oil and natural gas sales during ~~2022~~2023 as compared to ~~2021~~2022.

Crude oil and natural gas sales ~~increased~~decreased $48.72 million, or 5160%, from ~~2021~~2022 to ~~2022~~2023. This ~~increase~~decrease was due primarily to ~~higher~~lower average natural gas and crude oil prices received ~~during~~and ~~2022~~less asnatural ~~compared~~gas tovolumes ~~2021,~~produced ~~offset~~during ~~somewhat~~2023 byas ~~decreases~~compared into ~~crude oil and natural gas volumes produced~~2022.

The average price received per BBL of crude oil ~~increased~~decreased from $6491.46 in ~~2021~~2022 to $9174.4629 in ~~2022~~2023. Natural gas sales accounted for 7855% and 7478% of total crude oil and natural gas sales in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

~~Other~~DD&A ~~income~~increased ~~decreased~~ $~~908~~1.2 million,~~000,~~ or 73341%, from ~~2021~~2022 to ~~2022~~2023.

The effect of the decreased natural gas and crude oil reserves on ~~its~~DD&A ~~investments~~was offset somewhat by less natural gas volumes produced during ~~2022~~2023 as compared to the prior comparable period. In addition, the Company recognized $1.3 million of additions to proved properties at December 31, 2022 in association with revisions made to estimates of plugging costs, remaining lives of wells and the inflation rate associated with asset retirement obligations.

~~The~~Accretion ~~Company~~expense ~~reported~~increased ~~net income of~~ $9.1.0 million, ~~and~~or ~~$5.7~~528% ~~million~~from ~~during~~ 2022 ~~and~~to ~~2021,~~2023. ~~respectively,~~The ~~representing~~increase ~~64%~~is ~~and~~primarily ~~59%~~due ofto ~~total~~additional ~~revenues~~accretion ~~during~~expense ~~2022~~associated ~~and~~with ~~2021,~~the ~~respectively.~~recognition ~~The~~of ~~primary~~additional ~~reasons~~liabilities ~~for~~at ~~the~~December ~~increase~~31, in2022 ~~reported~~resulting ~~net~~from ~~income~~revisions ~~are~~made ~~increases~~to inestimates ~~crude~~of ~~oil~~plugging ~~and~~costs, ~~natural~~remaining ~~gas~~lives ~~sales,~~of ~~offset~~wells ~~somewhat~~and bythe ainflation ~~decrease~~rate inassociated ~~other~~with ~~income~~asset retirement obligations.

Other income increased $1.7 million during 2023, from $337,000 in 2022. The increase was primarily a result of increases in investment income and other income during 2023 as compared to 2022. The increase in investment income is primarily due to higher dividend rates yielded on investments during 2023 as compared to 2022. The increase in other income was due to a refundable Federal payroll tax credit, the Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”), applied for by the EEI during 2023. The ERC was created by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act.

The Company reported net income of $222,000 and $9.1 million during 2023 and 2022, respectively, representing 4% and 64% of total revenues during 2023 and 2022, respectively. The primary reasons for the decrease in reported net income are a decrease in crude oil and natural gas sales, increases in DD&A and accretion expense, offset somewhat by an increase in other income.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Property and Equipment. The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and production activities. Under successful efforts, costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties and to drill and equip development wells are initially capitalized. Costs of development wells (on properties the Company has no further interest in) that do not find proved reserves and geological and geophysical costs are expensed. The Company has not participated in exploratory drilling and owns no interest in unproved properties.

Capitalized costs of proved properties, after considering estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs and estimated salvage values, are amortized by the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved developed reserves. Depletion, depreciation and amortization on proved properties amounted to $~~288,000~~1.5 million and $~~300~~288,000 during ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

On sale or retirement of a unit of a proved property (which generally constitutes the amortization base), the cost and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization and write down are eliminated from the property accounts, and the resultant gain or loss is recognized.

The Company evaluates its crude oil and natural gas properties for impairment annually. Generally accepted accounting principles require that long-lived assets (including crude oil and natural gas properties) and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company utilizes a field by field basis for assessing impairment of its oil and gas properties.

Management of the Company believes that the accounting estimate related to crude oil and natural gas property impairment is a “critical accounting estimate” because it is highly susceptible to change from year to year. It requires the use of crude oil and natural gas reserve estimates that are directly impacted by future crude oil and natural gas prices and future production volumes. Actual crude oil and natural gas prices have fluctuated in the past and are likely to do so in the future.

Crude oil and natural gas reserve estimates are prepared annually based on existing contractual arrangements and current market conditions. Any increases in estimated future cash flows would have no impact on the reported value of the Company’s crude oil and natural gas properties. In contrast, decreases in estimated future cash flows could require the recognition of an impairment loss equal to the difference between the estimated fair value of the crude oil and natural gas properties (determined by calculating the discounted value of the estimated future cash flows) and the carrying amount of the crude oil and natural gas properties. Any impairment loss would reduce property and equipment as well as total assets of the Company. An impairment loss would also decrease net income or increase net loss. The Company did not recognize any impairment during 2022 or 2021.

Asset Retirement Obligations. The Company follows generally accepted accounting principles which require the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. For the Company, these obligations include dismantlement, plugging and abandonment of crude oil and natural gas wells and associated pipelines and equipment. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depleted over the estimated useful life of the related asset.

The estimated liability is based on historical experience in dismantling, plugging and abandoning wells, estimated remaining lives of those wells based on reserves estimates, estimates of the external cost to dismantle, plug and abandon the wells in the future and federal and state regulatory requirements. The liability is discounted using an assumed credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Revisions to the liability will likely occur due to: changes in estimates of dismantlement, plugging and abandonment costs; changes in estimated remaining lives of the wells; changes in federal or state regulations regarding dismantlement, plugging and abandonment requirements; and other factors. At December 31, 2022, the Company made revisions in estimates of plugging costs, lives of wells and the inflation rate. The revisions increased the liability by $1.3 million at December 31, 2022.

The Company has no assets legally restricted for purposes of settling its asset retirement obligations. The Company has determined that there are no other material retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes crude oil and natural gas revenues when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred, title and risk of loss have transferred to the purchaser, and collectability of the revenue is reasonably assured. The Company utilizes the sales method to account for gas production volume imbalances. Under this method, revenue is recognized only when gas is produced and sold on the Company’s behalf. The Company had no material gas imbalances at December 31, 2022 or 2021. Other revenues consist of miscellaneous revenues that are recognized at the time services are rendered, the Company has a contractual right to such revenue and collection is reasonably assured.

The Company participates (and may act as drilling contractor) with unaffiliated joint venture partners and employees in the drilling, development and operation of jointly owned crude oil and natural gas properties. Each owner, including the Company, has an undivided interest in the jointly owned properties. Generally, the joint venture partners and employees participate on the same drilling/development cost basis as the Company and, therefore, no revenue, expense or income is recognized on the drilling and development of the properties. The Company receives reimbursement of administrative costs associated with preparation, drilling and development of jointly owned crude oil and natural gas properties from certain joint venture partners. Accounts receivable from joint venture partners, if applicable, consist principally of drilling and development costs the Company has advanced or incurred on behalf of joint venture partners. Accounts payable to joint venture partners consist principally of deposits received from joint venture partners for drilling and development costs. The Company earns and receives monthly management and operating fees from certain joint venture partners and employees after the properties are completed and placed into production.

Commodity Pricing, Risk Management Activities and Inflation

The Company’s revenues, operating results, financial condition and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital depend substantially on prevailing prices for natural gas and crude oil. Declines in oil and gas prices may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and operating results. Lower oil and gas prices also may reduce the amount of oil and gas that the Company can produce economically. Historically, oil and gas prices and markets have been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely, and they are likely to continue to be volatile. Depressed prices in the future would have a negative impact on the Company’s future financial results. In particular, substantially lower prices would significantly reduce revenue, potentially increase depletion, depreciation and amortization and potentially trigger impairment under generally accepted accounting principles.

The majority of the Company’s production is sold at market responsive prices. Generally, if the related commodity index falls, the price received for the Company’s production will also decline. Therefore, the amount of revenue the Company realizes is partially determined by factors beyond the Company’s control. However, management has in recent years and may in the future mitigate this price risk on a portion of the Company’s anticipated production by shutting-in wells during certain periods of depressed natural gas prices in an attempt to hold production for the future when natural gas prices have recovered. Under this arrangement, there is also a risk that natural gas prices will not recover and that the production of future volumes will be sold at the same depressed or potentially further depressed natural gas prices.

While the cost of operations is impacted by inflation, crude oil and natural gas prices have fluctuated in recent years and generally have not matched inflation. The price of crude oil in the Appalachian Basin has ranged from a low of $8.50 per barrel in December 1998 to a high of $138.00 in July 2008. As of March 10, 2023, $72.68 per barrel was the prevailing field price in the Appalachian Basin area, the Company’s principal area of operation.

Natural gas prices have also fluctuated more recently. The Company’s average price of natural gas during 2022 was $5.66 per MCF, an increase of $2.38 per MCF as compared to 2021. The Company’s average price of natural gas during 2021 was $3.28 per MCF, an increase of $1.43 per MCF as compared to 2020. The Company’s average price of natural gas during 2020 was $1.85 per MCF, a decrease of $0.94 per MCF as compared to 2019. The Company’s average price of natural gas during 2019 was $2.79 per MCF, an increase of $0.02 per MCF as compared to 2018. The price of natural gas in the Appalachian Basin increased significantly throughout 2005 and reached a high of more than $14.00 per MCF in October and November 2005. More recently, the price for Henry Hub Natural Gas on the NYMEX settled for the month of March 2023 at $2.45 per MCF and the regional basis adjustment settled for the month of March 2023 at $(0.42) per MCF, resulting in a net regional market price of $2.03 per MCF. Since 2002, the Company has had and continues to have multiple annual or biennial contracts with various purchasers of natural gas, which obligate certain purchasers to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract periods.

The Company’s sales are significantly impacted by pricing instability in the crude oil and natural gas markets. One of the consequences of these pricing fluctuations is evident in the Company’s Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows, increasing from $(9.9) million at December 31, 2016 to $(5.1) million at December 31, 2017, increasing to $4.4 million at December 31, 2018, decreasing to $(2.5) million at December 31, 2019, decreasing to $(8.6) million at December 31, 2020, increasing to $6.8 million at December 31, 2021, increasing to $34.6 million at December 31, 2022 and decreasing to $(3.7) million at December 31, 2023.

The Company’s Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows decreased by $38.3 million from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2023. A reconciliation of the Changes in the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

At December 31, ~~2022~~2023, asset retirement obligations ("ARO") totaled approximately, $1617 million. As further described in Note 1G, the Company’s ARO reflects the estimated present value of its obligations, for dismantlement, plugging and abandonment of crude oil and natural gas wells and associated pipelines and equipment. The estimation of the ARO requires significant judgment given the magnitude of the expected retirement costs and higher estimation uncertainty related to the timing of settlements and settlement amounts. Auditing the Company’s ARO is complex and highly judgmental because of the significant estimation required by management in determining the obligation. In particular, the estimate was sensitive to significant subjective assumptions such as retirement cost estimates and the estimated timing of settlements, which are both affected by expectations about future market and economic conditions.

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit

We obtained an understanding of the Company’s internal controls over its ARO estimation process, including management’s review of the significant assumptions that have a material effect on the determination of the obligations. To test the ARO, our audit procedures included, among others, assessing the significant assumptions and inputs used in the valuation, such as retirement cost estimates and timing of settlement assumptions. For example, we evaluated retirement cost estimates by comparing the Company’s estimates to its recent costs to retire wells. Additionally, we compared assumptions for the timing of settlements to production forecasts and tested the mathematical accuracy of the ARO calculations.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 1988.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Principles of Consolidation – Everflow Eastern Partners, L.P. ("Everflow") is a Delaware limited partnership which was organized in September 1990 to engage in the business of oil and gas acquisition, exploration, development and production. Everflow was formed to consolidate the business and crude oil and natural gas properties of Everflow Eastern, Inc. ("EEI") and subsidiaries and the crude oil and natural gas properties owned by certain limited partnership and working interest programs managed or sponsored by EEI ("EEI Programs" or the "Programs").

Everflow Management Limited, LLC ("EML"), an Ohio limited liability company, is the general partner of Everflow and, as such, is authorized to perform all acts necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes and conduct of the business of Everflow. At December 31, ~~2022~~2023, the members of EML include Everflow Management Corporation ("EMC"); three individuals who are officers and directors of EEI and one individual who is the Chairman of the Board of EEI. EMC is an Ohio corporation formed in September 1990 and is the managing member of EML. EML holds no assets other than its general partner's interest in Everflow, nor does it have any liabilities. In addition, EML has no separate operations or role apart from its role as Everflow's general partner.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Everflow, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including EEI, and interests with joint venture partners (collectively, the "Company"), which are accounted for under the proportional consolidation method. All significant accounts and transactions between the consolidated entities have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("generally accepted accounting principles" or "GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates impacting the Company's financial statements include revenue and expense accruals and oil and gas reserve quantities. In the oil and gas industry, and especially as related to the Company's natural gas sales, the processing of actual transactions generally occurs 60-90 days after the month of delivery of its product. Consequently, accounts receivable from production and crude oil and natural gas sales are recorded using estimated production volumes and market or contract prices. Differences between estimated and actual amounts are recorded in subsequent periods’ financial results. As is typical in the oil and gas industry, a significant portion of the Company's accounts receivable from production and crude oil and natural gas sales consists of unbilled receivables. Oil and gas reserve quantities are utilized in the calculation of depreciation, depletion and amortization and the impairment of crude oil and natural gas properties and also impact the timing and costs associated with asset retirement obligations. The Company's estimates, especially those related to oil and gas reserves, could change in the near term and could significantly impact the Company's results of operations and financial position.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The fair values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other short-term obligations approximate their carrying values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying values of the Company's long-term obligations approximate their fair value because they are considered to be at current market rates. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, rates available to the Company at the balance sheet dates are used to estimate the fair value of existing obligations.

D. Cash and Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains, at various financial institutions, cash and equivalents which may exceed federally insured amounts and which may, at times, significantly exceed balance sheet amounts due to float. Cash and equivalents include $3,~~006~~064,~~107~~191 and $23,~~855~~006,~~680~~107 of operational advances at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively, which are funds collected and held on behalf of joint venture partners for their anticipated share of future plugging and abandonment costs. Operational advances held on behalf of joint venture partners include approximately $~~875~~966,~~600~~800 and $~~825~~875,~~300~~600 held on behalf of employees, including officers and directors, at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

Investments – The Company’s investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and consist of shares held in a mutual fund that invests primarily in investment grade, U.S. dollar denominated short-term fixed and floating rate debt securities. The mutual fund seeks current income while seeking to maintain a low volatility of principal.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board established a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements by establishing a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and defines valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives highest priority to Level I inputs and lowest priority to Level III inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level I – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the reporting date.

Level II – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

Level III – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the financial instrument and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company’s investments are carried at fair market value based on quoted prices available in active markets and are therefore classified as Level I.

~~Note 1~~Note1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Property and Equipment – The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and production activities. Under successful efforts, costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties, to drill and equip development wells and related asset retirement costs are capitalized. Costs of development wells (on properties the Company has no further interest in) that do not find proved reserves and geological and geophysical costs are expensed. The Company has not participated in exploratory drilling and owns no interest in unproved properties.

Capitalized costs of proved properties, after considering estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs and estimated salvage values, are amortized by the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved developed reserves. Depletion, depreciation, and amortization on proved properties amounted to $~~288~~1,~~051~~506,961 and $~~300~~288,~~390~~051 during ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that long-lived assets (including oil and gas properties) and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company, at least annually, reviews its proved crude oil and natural gas properties (on a field by field basis) for impairment by comparing the carrying value of its properties to the properties' undiscounted estimated future net cash flows. Estimates of future crude oil and natural gas prices, operating costs, and production are utilized in determining undiscounted future net cash flows. The estimated future production of oil and gas reserves is based upon the Company's independent reserve engineer's estimate of proved reserves which includes assumptions regarding field decline rates and future prices and costs. For properties where the carrying value exceeds undiscounted future net cash flows, the Company recognizes as impairment the difference between the carrying value and fair market value of the properties. The Company determines fair market value, using the income approach, as the properties’ discounted estimated future net cash flows. The key assumptions above are not observable in the market and, therefore, the fair value of the oil and gas properties is classified as Level III. The Company did not write down any crude oil and natural gas properties during ~~2022~~2023 or ~~2021~~2022.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Property and Equipment (Continued)

Pipeline and support equipment and other corporate property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated principally on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives (pipeline and support equipment - 10 to 15 years, other corporate equipment - 3 to 7 years, building and improvements - 39 to 40 years). Depreciation on pipeline and support equipment amounted to $7282,~~141~~926 and $6872,~~730~~140 for the years ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively. Depreciation on other corporate property and equipment, included in general and administrative expense, amounted to $7984,~~491~~005 and $7479,~~788~~492 for the years ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

Maintenance and repairs of property and equipment are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, and the assets replaced are retired.

Asset Retirement Obligations – Generally accepted accounting principles require the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. For the Company, these obligations include dismantlement, plugging and abandonment of crude oil and natural gas wells and associated pipelines and equipment. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depleted over the estimated useful life of the related asset.

The estimated liability is based on historical experience in dismantling, plugging and abandoning wells, estimated remaining lives of those wells based on reserves estimates, estimates of the external cost to dismantle, plug and abandon the wells in the future and federal and state regulatory requirements. The liability is discounted using an assumed credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Revisions to the liability will likely occur due to: changes in estimates of dismantlement, plugging and abandonment costs, changes in estimated remaining lives of the wells, changes in federal or state regulations regarding plugging and abandonment requirements, and other factors. At December 31, 2022, the Company made revisions in estimates of plugging costs, remaining lives of wells and the inflation rate.

Gain on disposal of property and equipment includes approximately $687,200 of gains associated with non-cash settlements of asset retirement obligations during 2021.

Revenue Recognition – Revenues from contracts with customers are recognized when performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with contractual terms.

For the sale of crude oil and natural gas from operated properties, the Company generally considers each unit (BBL or MCF) to be a separate performance obligation. The transaction price may consist of fixed and variable consideration, in which the variable amount is determinable each production period and is recognized as revenue upon pickup/delivery of the crude oil or natural gas, which is the point in time that the customer obtains control of the crude oil or natural gas and the Company's performance obligation is satisfied.

Crude oil and natural gas sales derived from third party operated wells are recognized under similar terms as sales of crude oil and natural gas from operated properties and revenue is recognized at a point in time when the product is delivered, the purchaser obtains control and the Company's performance obligation is satisfied.

Crude oil and natural gas sales represent the Company's share of revenues, net of royalties and other revenue interests owned by other parties. When settling crude oil and natural gas sales on behalf of royalty owners or working interest owners, the Company is acting as an agent and thus reports the revenue on a net basis.

Based on the Company's judgment, the Company's performance obligations have been satisfied and an unconditional right to consideration exists at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively; therefore, the Company recognized amounts due from contracts with customers as production accounts receivable within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

The Company utilizes the sales method to account for gas production volume imbalances. Under this method, revenue is recognized only when gas is produced and sold on the Company’s behalf. The Company had no material gas imbalances at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022.

The Company frequently participates (and may act as drilling contractor) with affiliated and unaffiliated joint venture partners and certain employees, officers and directors in the drilling, development and operation of jointly owned oil and gas properties. Each owner, including the Company, has an undivided interest in the jointly owned properties. Generally, the joint venture partners, employees, officers and directors participate on the same drilling/development cost basis as the Company and, therefore, no revenue, expense or income is recognized on the drilling and development of the properties. Well management and operating revenues are derived from a variety of both verbal and written operating agreements with joint venture partners, and are recognized monthly as services are provided and properties are managed and operated. Other revenues consist of miscellaneous revenues that are recognized at the time services are rendered, the Company has a contractual right to such revenue and collection is reasonably assured.

Income Taxes – Everflow is not a tax-paying entity and the net taxable income or loss, other than the taxable income or loss allocable to EEI, which is a C corporation owned by Everflow, is allocated directly to its respective partners. The non-taxable status of the Programs and Everflow is the primary reconciling item between taxes computed at the Federal statutory rate and the effective tax rate in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company is not able to determine the net difference between the tax bases and the reported amounts of Everflow's assets and liabilities due to separate elections that were made by owners of the working interests and limited partnership interests that comprised the Programs.

EEI accounts for income taxes under generally accepted accounting principles, which require income taxes be provided for all items (as they relate to EEI) in the consolidated statements of operations regardless of the period when such items are reported for income tax purposes. Therefore, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of certain EEI assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets, recorded with other assets, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The impact on deferred taxes of changes in tax rates and laws, if any, is reflected in the financial statements in the period of enactment. Items giving rise to deferred taxes consist primarily of temporary differences arising from differences in financial reporting and tax reporting methods for EEI's proved properties, percentage depletion and general business credits.

Allocation of Income and Per Unit Data – Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement, initially 99% of revenues and costs were allocated to the Unitholders (the limited partners) and 1% of revenues and costs were allocated to the general partner. Such allocation has changed and may change in the future as Unitholders elect to exercise the Repurchase Right and select officers and employees elect to exercise options (See Note 3).

Net income per limited partner Unit has been computed based on the weighted average number of Units outstanding during each year presented.

KL. New Accounting Standards – The Company has reviewed all recently issued accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on the consolidated financial statements. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these standards will have a significant effect on current or future earnings or results of operations.

Partners' Equity

Units represent limited partnership interests in Everflow. The Units are transferable subject only to the approval of any transfer by EML and to the laws governing the transfer of securities. The Units are not listed for trading on any securities exchange nor are they quoted in the automated quotation system of a registered securities association. However, Unitholders may have an opportunity to require Everflow to repurchase their Units pursuant to the Repurchase Right.

The partnership agreement provides that Everflow will repurchase for cash up to 10% of the then outstanding Units, to the extent Unitholders offer Units to Everflow for repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right entitles any Unitholder, between May 1 and June 30 of each year, to notify Everflow that the Unitholder elects to exercise the Repurchase Right and have Everflow acquire certain or all Units. The price to be paid for any such Units is calculated based upon the audited financial statements of the Company as of December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the Repurchase Right is to be effective and independently prepared reserve reports. The price per Unit equals 66% of the adjusted book value of the Company allocable to the Units, divided by the number of Units outstanding at the beginning of the year in which the applicable Repurchase Right is to be effective less all interim cash distributions received by a Unitholder. The adjusted book value is calculated by adding partners' equity, the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows and the tax effect included in the standardized measure and subtracting from that sum the carrying value of oil and gas properties (net of undeveloped lease costs). If more than 10% of the then outstanding Units are tendered during any period during which the Repurchase Right is to be effective, the investors' Units tendered shall be prorated for purposes of calculating the actual number of Units to be acquired during any such period. The price associated with the ~~2023~~2024 Repurchase Right, based upon the December 31, ~~2022~~2023 calculation, is estimated to be $61.3666 per Unit, net of a $0.5020 per Unit distribution expected to be made in April ~~2023~~2024.

In June ~~2022~~2023, the Company repurchased ~~121~~526,~~354~~433 Units pursuant to the Repurchase Right at a price of $26.5136 per Unit. In June ~~2021~~2022, the Company repurchased ~~137~~121,~~455~~354 Units pursuant to the Repurchase Right at a price of $02.3651 per Unit. In June ~~2020~~2021, the Company repurchased 81137,~~039~~455 Units pursuant to the Repurchase Right at a price of $0.8636 per Unit.

The Company has an Option Repurchase Plan (the "Option Plan") which permits the grant of options to repurchase certain Units to select officers and employees (the "Option Plan Participants"). The purpose of the Option Plan is to assist the Company in attracting and retaining officers and other key employees and to enable those individuals to acquire or increase their ownership interest in the Company in order to encourage them to promote the growth and profitability of the Company. The Option Plan is designed to align directly the financial interests of the Option Plan Participants with the financial interests of the Unitholders. The Company granted 30,000 options to officers and certain key employees in June ~~2022~~2023, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021, respectively. All options granted were exercised on the same date.

All Units repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Right are retired except for those Units issued through the exercise of options pursuant to the Option Plan. There were 54,~~243~~746,~~119~~686, 5,~~334~~243,~~473~~119 and 5,~~441~~334,~~928~~473 outstanding Units following the Company’s repurchase of Units and issuance of options in June ~~2022~~2023, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021, respectively. There were no instruments outstanding at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 or ~~2021~~2022 that would potentially dilute net income per Unit.

Retirement Plan

The Company has a defined contribution plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for all employees who have reached defined minimum age and term of service requirements (the “Defined Contribution Plan”, or the “DC Plan”). The Company makes safe harbor contributions and matches employees' contributions to the Defined Contribution Plan as annually determined by EMC's Board of Directors. Additionally, the DC Plan has a profit sharing component which provides for contributions to the DC Plan at the discretion of EMC's Board of Directors. Amounts contributed to the DC Plan vest immediately. The Company's total contributions to the Defined Contribution Plan amounted to approximately $~~219~~217,~~400~~300 and $~~207~~219,~~900~~400 for the years ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

Note 5.

Business Segments, Risks and Major Customers

The Company operates exclusively in Ohio and Pennsylvania of the United States in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and gas.

The Company operates in an environment with many financial risks, including, but not limited to, the ability to acquire additional economically recoverable oil and gas reserves, the inherent risks of the search for, development of and production of oil and gas, the ability to sell oil and gas at prices which will provide attractive rates of return, the volatility and seasonality of oil and gas production and prices, and the highly competitive and, at times, seasonal nature of the industry and worldwide economic conditions. The Company's ability to expand its reserve base and diversify its operations is also dependent upon the Company's ability to obtain the necessary capital through operating cash flow, borrowings or equity offerings. Various federal, state and governmental agencies are considering, and some have adopted, laws and regulations regarding environmental protection which could adversely affect the proposed business activities of the Company. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, current and future regulations may have on the operations of the Company.

Management of the Company continually evaluates whether the Company can develop oil and gas properties at historical levels given current industry and market conditions. If the Company is unable to do so, it could be determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Unitholders to reorganize, liquidate or sell the Company. However, management cannot predict whether any sale transaction will be a viable alternative for the Company in the immediate future.

Natural gas sales accounted for 7855% and 7478% of total crude oil and natural gas sales in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively. Approximately 8776% and 8887% of total crude oil and natural gas sales were derived from operated wells in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively. The Company had one significant purchaser of natural gas production from operated wells for the years ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 (the “Major Gas Purchaser”). Natural gas sales to the Major Gas Purchaser as a percentage of consolidated crude oil and natural gas sales were 37% and 61% in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 5.

Business Segments, Risks and Major Customers (Continued)

As of December 31, ~~2022~~2023, natural gas purchased by the Major Gas Purchaser covers production from approximately ~~570~~560 gross operated wells. Production purchased by the Major Gas Purchaser from operated wells comprised approximately 7966% and 8279% of the Company's consolidated natural gas sales in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

The Company sells substantially all its crude oil production from operated wells to one purchaser (the “Major Oil Purchaser”).

The Company's production accounts receivable result from sales of natural gas and crude oil. A significant portion of the Company's production accounts receivable is due from the Company's major customers. The Company does not view such concentration as an unusual credit risk. However, the Company does not require collateral from its customers and could incur losses if its customers fail to pay. As a result of management's review of current and historical credit losses as well as the current and expected economic trends, a valuation allowance was not deemed necessary at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022. The Company expects that the Major Gas Purchaser and Major Oil Purchaser will continue to be the only major customers for natural gas and crude oil production from its operated wells in ~~2022~~2024. Historically, the Company has not tracked the purchasers of natural gas and crude oil derived from third party operated wells which may have the same customers.

Note 6.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has multiple contracts with the Major Gas Purchaser which obligate the Major Gas Purchaser to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract periods. Management believes the Company can meet its delivery commitments based on estimated production.

In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act was enacted into law. The Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act (the “Flexibility Act”) was enacted into law in June 2020. Among several other economic stimulus benefits, these laws established the United States Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”). In April 2020, EEI received a $326,932 unsecured PPP loan through a commercial bank (the “PPP Loan”). Provisions of the PPP allowed EEI to apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan provided the proceeds were used for covered expenditures and certain other requirements were satisfied. In February 2021, the United States Small Business Administration authorized full forgiveness of EEI’s PPP Loan.

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and in projecting future rates of production and timing of development expenditures, including many factors beyond the control of the Company. The estimated future cash flows are determined based on crude oil and natural gas pricing parameters established by generally accepted accounting principles, adjusted for contract terms within contract periods, estimated production of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves, estimated future production and development costs of reserves and future retirement obligations (net of salvage), based on current economic conditions, and the estimated future income tax expense, based on year-end statutory tax rates (with consideration of future tax rates already legislated) to be incurred on pretax net cash flows less the tax basis of the properties involved. Such cash flows are then discounted using a 10% rate.

The methodology and assumptions used in calculating the standardized measure are those required by generally accepted accounting principles and United States Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements. It is not intended to be representative of the fair market value of the Company's proved reserves. The valuation of revenues and costs does not necessarily reflect the amounts to be received or expended by the Company. In addition to the valuations used, numerous other factors are considered in evaluating known and prospective oil and gas reserves.

Average adjusted natural gas prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $51.3375 and $25.9433 per MCF at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively, and the average adjusted crude oil prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $9074.2971 and $6390.1629 per BBL at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15). Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Due to limitations on any control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degrees of compliance with our established policies and procedures. Management intends to continue to evaluate and improve internal controls over financial reporting as necessary and appropriate for the Company’s business, however management cannot provide assurance that such improvements will be sufficient to provide effective internal control over financial reporting.

Management is responsible for assessing the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2022~~2023 based on the guidelines established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (2013 Framework). Management utilized internal and external resources to assist in the various aspects of its assessment and compliance efforts. As a result of its assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, ~~2022~~2023.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during ~~2022~~2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The General Partner of the Company is Everflow Management Limited, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company formed in March 1999, as the successor to the Company’s original general partner. The members of the General Partner as of March 1024, ~~2023~~2024 are EMC; three individuals who are officers and directors of EEI, Brian A. Staebler, Michael W. Rathburn and William A. Siskovic and one ~~individual~~director ~~who~~of EEI, Thomas L. Korner. Mr. Siskovic also serves as ~~the~~ Chairman of the Board of EEI~~, Thomas L~~. ~~Korner.~~

EMC is the Managing Member of the General Partner. EMC was formed in September 1990 to act as the managing general partner of Everflow Management Company, the predecessor of the General Partner. EMC is owned by the other members of the General Partner and EMC currently has no employees, but as managing member of the General Partner makes all management and business decisions on behalf of the General Partner and thus on behalf of the Company.

EEI has continued its separate existence as a holder of interests in many of the same crude oil and natural gas properties that the Company operates. EEI also employs all personnel to conduct all of the Company’s business. All of EEI’s outstanding shares are owned by the Company.

Directors and Officers of EEI and EMC. The executive officers and directors of EEI and EMC as of March 1024, ~~2023~~2024 are as follows:

All officers of EEI are employed by EEI to conduct business affairs of the Company. All directors of EEI are elected to serve by the Company, which is EEI’s sole shareholder. Directors of EEI received no additional compensation or fees for their services to EEI or their services on behalf of the Company in ~~2022~~2023 or ~~2021~~2022.

All directors and officers of EMC hold their positions with EMC pursuant to a shareholders’ agreement among EMC and such directors and officers. The shareholders agreement controls the operation of EMC, provides for changes in share ownership of EMC, and determines the identity of the directors and officers of EMC as well as their replacements.

As a result of the foregoing organizational structure, the Company does not have a nominating committee or a compensation committee. The Directors of EMC function as the Company’s audit committee. None of the members of EMC’s board are “independent.” The Company believes that its status as a limited partnership, the limited voting rights possessed by holders of limited partnership units, and the existence of contractual arrangements governing the selection of EMC’s directors and officers makes it appropriate for the Company not to maintain nominating or compensation committees. Each director of EMC participates in determining the compensation of the executive officers of the Company.

Audit Committee

EMC is the managing general partner of the Company. The directors and officers of EMC serve as the Company’s audit committee as specified in section 3(a)(58)(B) of the Exchange Act. Michael W. Rathburn, who is not independent, has been designated the Company’s audit committee financial expert.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors of Everflow Management Corporation, the managing general partner of Everflow Management Limited, LLC, the general partner of the Company. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal controls. The independent registered public accountants are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

We have discussed with the independent registered public accountants of the Company, Maloney + Novotny LLC, the matters that independent registered public accounting firms must communicate to audit committees under Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) requirements, which includes a review of the results of the independent registered public accountant’s examination of the Company’s financial statements and related processes.

We have received and reviewed written disclosures and the letter from Maloney + Novotny LLC, which is required by applicable rules of the PCAOB, and we have discussed with Maloney + Novotny LLC their independence under such standards. We have concluded that the independent registered public accountants are independent from the Company and its management.

Based on our review and discussions referred to above, we have recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements of the Company be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the Audit Committee:

Brian A. Staebler (Chairman) ~~Thomas L. Korner~~ Michael W. Rathburn William A. Siskovic Thomas L. Korner

Code of Ethics. The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions. The Code of Ethics is included as Exhibit 14.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

A copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided upon written request.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance. Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than 10% owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company, the Company believes that all required Section 16(a) filings for fiscal year ~~2022~~2023 were timely made.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

As a limited partnership, the Company has no executive officers or directors, but is managed by the General Partner. The executive officers of EMC and EEI are compensated by EEI. The compensation described below represents all compensation from EEI.

Overview of ~~2022~~2023 Executive Compensation Components

Components of executive compensation in the ~~2022~~2023 fiscal year for the executive officers of EMC and EEI include the following:

●

base salary

●

annual cash bonuses

●

retirement and other benefits

Base Salary

The base salary of the executive officers is intended to provide fixed compensation for the performance of core duties. In determining appropriate salary levels, consideration is given to the level and scope of responsibility, experience, and Company and individual performance. The base salaries paid during fiscal ~~2022~~2023 are shown in the Summary Compensation Table appearing further below in this Item 11.

- 33 -

Table of Contents

Annual Cash Bonuses

The annual bonus of the executive officers is intended to supplement the fixed compensation provided in the base salary to recognize an individual’s performance in a fiscal year. Payment with respect to any cash bonus is contingent upon the satisfaction of objective and subjective performance criteria. The annual cash bonus is determined at the end of each fiscal year. The amount is awarded in the first fiscal quarter following the end of each fiscal year.

Executive officers are provided an annual cash bonus each year based on the achievement of certain financial and non-financial performance objectives during the previous fiscal year. Annual cash bonuses are based on a percentage of the executive’s base salary. For ~~2022~~2023, the Board of Directors set a range of these bonuses between 50% and 160% of the executive’s base salary, based on the Company achieving specified financial and non-financial performance objectives. In ~~2022~~2023, the financial performance objectives that were used for determining financial performance-based cash awards were asset management, profitability and overall company stability. In ~~2022~~2023, the non-financial performance objectives that were used for determining non-financial performance based cash awards were corporate governance and adherence to policies and procedures as well as other factors that vary depending on responsibilities.

The ~~2023~~2024 target annual cash bonus awards for executive officers are established as a percentage of the executive’s base salary. These target amounts range between 50% and 160% of base salary. These target amounts were determined considering executive pay at companies of comparable size. The Board of Directors believes it is important that these target and maximum payout levels are aligned with the Company’s long-term strategic plan and the Company’s expectation of future financial performance.

Retirement and Other Benefits

The executive officers are entitled to the same benefits coverage as other employees such as health insurance, life and disability insurance, participation in the Company’s 401(k) plan, and the reimbursement of ordinary and reasonable business expenses. The executive officers are also provided with additional supplementary life insurance and a Company owned vehicle.

The Company has an Option Repurchase Plan under which the Company may grant options to repurchase Units acquired by the Company as part of the Repurchase Right to eligible officers and employees. The Company granted a total of 2729,000 and 27,~~500~~000 options to executive officers in ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, respectively, all of which were exercised immediately.

The Company does not currently offer any deferred compensation program, supplemental executive retirement plan or any financial planning services for executive officers.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

In the past, certain officers, directors and Unitholders who beneficially own more than 10% of the Company have invested in crude oil and natural gas programs sponsored by EEI on the same terms as other unrelated investors in such programs. In the past, certain officers, directors and/or more than 10% Unitholders of the Company have frequently participated and will likely participate in the future as working interest owners in wells in which the Company has an interest. The Company anticipates that any such participation by individual members of the Company’s management would enable such individuals to participate in the drilling and development of undeveloped drill sites on an equal basis with the Company or the particular drilling program acquiring such drill sites, which participation would be on a uniform basis with respect to all drilling conducted during a specified time frame, as opposed to selective participation. Frequently, such participation has been on more favorable terms than the terms which were available to other unrelated investors in such programs. Prior to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, EEI loaned the officers of the Company the funds necessary to participate in the drilling and development of such wells. The Company ceased making these loans in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

~~Certain~~The officers and directors of EMC own crude oil and natural gas properties, individually and through equally owned membership interests in a limited liability company, and, as such, contract with the Company to provide field operations on such properties. These ownership interests are charged per well fees for such services on the same basis as all other working interest owners. ~~Thomas~~The L.aforementioned ~~Korner,~~limited ~~Brian~~liability A.company ~~Staebler, Michael W. Rathburn and William A. Siskovic each~~ made investments in crude oil and natural gas properties, ~~during 2022, in the amount~~ of $1022,~~700.~~400 ~~Thomas~~and ~~L. Korner~~$42,800 ~~Brian~~during A.2023 ~~Staebler, Michael W. Rathburn~~ and ~~William~~2022, Arespectively. ~~Siskovic did not make any investments in crude oil and natural gas properties and pipelines during 2021.~~

As a result of its organizational structure, the Company does not have a nominating committee or a compensation committee. The Directors of EMC function as the Company’s audit committee. None of the members of EMC’s board are “independent” under the current independence standards of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market. The Company believes that its status as a limited partnership, the limited voting rights possessed by holders of limited partnership units, and the existence of contractual arrangements governing the selection of EMC’s directors and officers makes it appropriate for the Company not to maintain nominating or compensation committees.
