VAALCO said its unaudited Q3 2018 balance sheet could no longer be relied on due to an accounting error: a $18.6 million deferred tax liability tied to its September 2018 Etame Marin permit extension had been calculated incorrectly. The fix only shifted amounts between long-term asset and tax-asset lines - it didn't change total assets, working capital, or reported income - and was corrected in the 2018 annual report.
