Exploration Expenses. Exploration expenses were $0.2 million in the second quarter 2010, compared to $1.5 million for the second quarter 2009. The decrease in exploration expenses was primarily due to lower geological and geophysical (“G&G”) acquisition costs and lower settled asset retirement costs in the second quarter 2010.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“DD&A”). DD&A expense for the second quarter 2010 was $10.5 million compared to $14.3 million for the second quarter 2009, a decrease primarily due to lower production and the sale of the Southwest Louisiana properties in December 2009.
General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses. Total G&A expenses were $4.5 million for the second quarter 2010 compared to $4.3 million for the second quarter 2009. Included in G&A expense is a non-cash stock expense of $0.4 million ($0.14 per Mcfe) and $0.6 million ($0.14 per Mcfe) for the second quarters 2010 and 2009, respectively. G&A expenses for the second quarter 2010 were higher primarily due to approximately $0.6 million in legal fees incurred in successfully defending a lawsuit related to the 2005 recapitalization. The increase in per unit costs was primarily a result of the legal fees and lower production.
Income Taxes. Our net loss before taxes was $9.6 million for the second quarter 2010, compared to $20.4 million in the second quarter 2009. After adjusting for permanent tax differences, we recorded an income tax benefit of $3.2 million for the second quarter 2010, compared to $7.1 million for the second quarter 2009.
Dividends on Preferred Stock. Dividends on preferred stock were zero for the second quarter 2010, compared with $1.1 million in the second quarter 2009. All of the Series G and Series H Preferred Stock, including accrued dividends, were converted to Common Stock in December 2009 in conjunction with our Common Stock offering.
