Gulfport Energy Corporation Company Profile

We are an independent oil and natural gas exploration and production company focused on the exploration, exploitation, acquisition and production of natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil in the United States. Our principal properties are located in the Utica Shale primarily in Eastern Ohio and along the Louisiana Gulf Coast in the West Cote Blanche Bay, or WCBB, and Hackberry fields. In December 2016, we entered into a definitive agreement to purchase oil and natural gas assets including 46,400 net surface acres with multiple producing zones, including the Woodford and Springer formations, in Grady, Stephens, and Garvin counties, Oklahoma, (see "- Our Pending Acquisition" below) which we expect to complete in February 2017. In addition, we have an interest in producing properties in the Niobrara Formation of Northwestern Colorado and the Bakken Formation. We also hold a significant acreage position in the Alberta oil sands in Canada through our interest in Grizzly Oil Sands ULC, or Grizzly, and an interest in an entity that operates in the Phu Horm gas field in Thailand. We also hold an approximate 24.2% equity interest in Mammoth Energy Services, Inc., or Mammoth Energy, an oil field services company listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, to which we contributed our membership interest in Mammoth Partners LLC (previously, Mammoth Energy Partners LP) in connection with Mammoth Energy’s initial public offering completed on October 19, 2016. We seek to achieve reserve growth and increase our cash flow through our annual drilling programs.
