Mexco Energy Corporation Reports Financial Results for First Quarter

Mexco Energy Corporation (NYSE American: MXC) today reported net income of $465,614, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the quarter ending June 30, 2023, compared to $1,298,672 or $0.59 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter ending June 30, 2022.

Operating revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 were $1,748,419, a decrease of 29% from the first quarter of fiscal 2023. This was due to a 33% decrease in the average sales price of oil and a 69% decrease in the average sales price of natural gas. This was partially offset by a 37% increase in oil production and a 9% increase in natural gas production. Oil contributed 82% of our operating revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2024.

The Company currently expects to participate in the drilling and completion of 40 horizontal wells and the completion of 21 horizontal wells drilled in the prior fiscal year. The estimated aggregate cost is approximately $2.2 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, of which approximately $1.3 million has been expended to date.
