PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

The Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of SandRidge Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, could not be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense, because the Company needs additional time to complete its financial statements and related disclosures.

The Company has been engaged in discussions with certain holders of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, including its senior credit facility lenders and ad hoc groups of its second lien and unsecured noteholders (collectively, the “Creditors”), regarding a temporary waiver with respect to certain actual and potential defaults under the Company’s amended senior credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) and a potential comprehensive restructuring transaction.

The process of negotiating with the Company’s stakeholders and preparing for an expected restructuring transaction has diverted significant management time and internal resources from the Company’s normal processes for reviewing and completing its financial statements and related disclosures. Additionally, the complexities involved with drafting a complete and accurate set of financial statements and related disclosures in light of the anticipated restructuring transaction has significantly increased the time required to prepare and finalize the Company’s Form 10-Q beyond the time required during a normal review cycle. For these reasons, the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 cannot be filed within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense.


 

PART IV — OTHER INFORMATION

 

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification

 

Philip T. Warman        405       429-5500
(Name)        (Area Code)       (Telephone Number)

 

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s).

x  Yes    ¨  No

 

 

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

x  Yes    ¨  No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

As a result of the matters discussed in Part III above, the Company is not in a position at this point to provide any specific estimate of anticipated significant changes in results of operations from the quarter ended March 31, 2015 to the quarter ended March 31, 2016 that may be reflected in the financial statements to be included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

The Company, however, anticipates that total revenues and income from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 will be significantly lower than the quarter ended March 31, 2015, as a result of significantly lower commodity prices, as well as a decline in total production of approximately 30 percent from the corresponding period in 2015. Further, as a result of significantly decreased oil prices, the Company incurred a full cost ceiling impairment charge of $108.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

The foregoing statements are based on our current expectations as of the date of this filing and involve a number of risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ and may be beyond our control, as discussed further below.
