Persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB control number. |
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 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “2015 Form 10-K”), could not have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense because the Company needed additional time to complete its financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company will report a large loss on its consolidated financial statements mainly as a result of substantial impaired asset write downs. The Company’s auditors' opinion to be issued in connection with the consolidated financial statements is expected to include an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We are evaluating these matters in relationship to our on-going and previously disclosed recapitalization plan.
The significant additional time required to evaluate the effects of and disclose, in compliance with the requirements of Form 10-K, the concerns regarding this impairment and the expected going concern explanatory paragraph has resulted in the Company being unable to file its 2015 Form 10-K within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense.
The Company is working diligently to address the issues and anticipates that the 2015 Form 10-K will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following its prescribed due date.
