Announcements, explained
Each one in plain English, with the numbers worked through for a shareholder.
8 May 2026debt financing● Neutral
PEDEVCO and Citibank amended their credit agreement to adjust covenant calculations for the North Peak/Century acquisition and push the next borrowing-base redetermination to mid-2026 - a technical accommodation for the newly enlarged asset base (following an earlier, immaterial amendment in December 2025 that added a lender).
3 Mar 2026business combination▲ GoodMajor
PEDEVCO filed a follow-up disclosure re-detailing the October 2025 North Peak/Century merger and its concurrent $35 million PIPE financing, confirming the preferred-to-common conversion mechanics and the heavy participation of company insiders and Juniper Capital Advisors in the financing.
5 Feb 2026debt financing● NeutralMajor
A further $5 million drawn a month later, again with the preferred holders' consent -- $98 million of the $120 million borrowing base used since the October 2025 merger closed, and the second such consent in five weeks.
9 Jan 2026debt financing● NeutralMajor
Drew another $6 million on the Citibank facility for non-operated wells and payables -- and needed permission to do it. North Peak and Century, the Juniper Capital vehicles that took 17,013,637 Series A preferred shares in the October 2025 merger, can veto any borrowing over $500,000, and consented on 6 January. The price of the deal that transformed PEDEVCO's scale is that its new preferred holders now control its chequebook.
3 Nov 2025business combination▲ GoodMajor
PEDEVCO closed a transformational merger, acquiring North Peak Oil & Gas and Century Oil and Gas Sub-Holdings (backed by Juniper Capital Advisors) for 10.65 million shares of new convertible preferred stock (convertible into 106.5 million common shares) plus a concurrent $35 million PIPE financing at $5.50/share led by Executive Chairman Dr. Simon Kukes' family trust and a Juniper Capital affiliate - by far the largest, most dilutive deal in the company's history, with the acquired companies' own CEO and CFO taking over as PEDEVCO's COO and CFO.
29 Oct 2025financial restatement▼ BadMajor
PEDEVCO restated its audited FY2024 financials after a tax-provision error overstated its tax benefit and deferred tax asset by about $5.5 million - the third restatement in roughly two years, again with no cash or liquidity impact, but a recurring pattern that raises real questions about the company's internal financial controls.
31 Mar 2025financial restatement▼ BadMajor
PEDEVCO restated its audited FY2023 and FY2022 financials after finding depletion-expense accounting errors that had overstated depreciation/depletion/amortization by about $1.4 million and $1.25 million respectively - the second restatement in under two years, with no cash or liquidity impact.
11 Mar 2025production update▲ Good
PEDEVCO completed drilling of four new horizontal San Andres wells (two net to the company) in its core Chaveroo Field, continued development following the 2023 farm-out deal with Evolution Petroleum.
20 Dec 2024material agreement▲ Good
PEDEVCO upsized its at-the-market equity capacity, setting up a new $8 million facility with Roth Capital Partners and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners.
12 Sept 2024security holder rights change▲ GoodMajor
PEDEVCO secured its first conventional bank credit line: a four-year senior secured revolving facility from Citibank with an initial $20 million borrowing base (up to $250 million maximum), secured by nearly all company assets - a marked upgrade from the high-cost private note financing (RJ Credit and similar lenders) that had constrained the company for a decade.
9 Nov 2023asset acquisition disposition● Neutral
PEDEVCO sold a smaller package of oil & gas assets - including its EOR Operating Company subsidiary, part of the 2018 Permian entry - to Tilloo Exploration for $1.12 million, financed by a 5-year seller note at 10% interest, trimming a non-core piece of its portfolio.
16 Oct 2023financial restatement▼ BadMajor
PEDEVCO's Audit Committee determined its Q2 2023 financials needed restatement after finding a revenue-accrual error - unreversed accruals from new third-party well operators had overstated net revenue on 14 wells and skewed reported production, costs and depletion for the quarter. No misconduct was found and the fix was still preliminary.
13 Sept 2023material agreement▲ GoodMajor
PEDEVCO farmed out half its working interest in the Chaveroo Field (Permian Basin, New Mexico) to Evolution Petroleum, covering 16,000 gross acres across twelve development blocks where the two will jointly drill up to nine San Andres wells per block - Evolution paid $401,733 for the first two blocks with options to expand block-by-block, and PEDEVCO stays operator - a capital-light way to accelerate development of the asset it bought in 2018.
26 Aug 2022director officer appointment● Neutral
Housekeeping: extended SK Energy's sublease of 300 square feet at PEDEVCO's Houston office for two more years for a $24,000 lump sum, and granted restricted stock to three directors. The related-party arrangements with Kukes's vehicle now reach down to the office space.
8 Dec 2021drilling progress report▲ Good

6 Oct 2021material agreement▲ GoodMajor
PEDEVCO raised about $7 million gross in a registered direct offering (4.46 million shares at $1.57/share) to an institutional investor, earmarked for Permian and DJ Basin development and possible acquisitions - its second strongly-priced capital raise of 2021.
3 Feb 2021material agreement▲ GoodMajor
PEDEVCO raised about $7.8 million gross in an underwritten public offering (5.19 million shares at $1.50/share) led by Kingswood Capital Markets - pricing far above its distressed 2015-era raises, reflecting the 2021 oil-price recovery.
17 Nov 2020business combination▼ BadMajor

13 Oct 2020business combination● NeutralMajor
Launched a tender/exchange offer, through subsidiary SRPT Acquisition LLC, for all ~52.5 million common units of SandRidge Permian Trust — a separate, Permian-focused royalty trust — an implied ~$23.5 million deal, PEDEVCO's first attempt to acquire rather than be acquired.
31 Mar 2020director officer appointment▼ BadMajor
Cut every salary by 20% as the oil price collapsed, and gave President Schick the right to leave with a year's pay if even the reduced salary went unpaid. The same announcement carried PEDEVCO's best year yet -- $13 million of revenue, production up 186% to 266,070 barrels of oil equivalent, reserves up to 14.0 million barrels, and the first positive operating cash flow in over a decade -- reported the week the market took it all away.
18 Sept 2019capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor
Raised $25 million in fresh equity: $12 million from new, unaffiliated investor Viktor Tkachev at $1.4286/share and a further $13 million from SK Energy at a premium price, broadening the investor base slightly beyond the CEO.
12 Aug 2019capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor
An amended report on the May 2019 raise: SK Energy bought 6,818,181 shares at $2.20, a premium to market, for $15.0 million, lifting Kukes's holding from 78.2% to 81.0%, alongside 1,500,000 shares sold to two unaffiliated buyers at $2.00. The money went into the 2019 Permian drilling programme and further Permian acquisitions.
What it means for a shareholder
6.8m new shares at US$2.20 to raise about US$15.0m. That's 11% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 11% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (455 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.000844% to 0.000749% of the company. To keep it you'd need 58 more shares - about US$128 at the issue price.

21 May 2019capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor
SK Energy invested a further $15 million in cash at $2.20/share — a premium to market — to fund the 2019 Permian development and acquisition program, raising Dr. Kukes' stake from 78.2% to 81.0% of the company.
4 Mar 2019capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor
Made SK Energy's $7.7 million June 2018 note convertible, and SK Energy separately bought out more than $1.5 million of other insiders' and directors' notes — further consolidating the company's convertible debt under the CEO's control.
19 Feb 2019capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor
Removed the 49.9% ownership cap on SK Energy's convertible notes, after which SK Energy converted over $22 million of principal and interest (the January 2019 and October 2018 notes) into roughly 14.1 million shares, taking Dr. Kukes' vehicle to 47.1% of the company.
13 Feb 2019drilling progress report▲ Good
