TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (the Company) held an earnings conference call on March 13,
2007 to discuss year end and fourth quarter 2006 operational and production results. A copy of the
transcript of the earnings conference call is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on
Form 8-K.
In the transcript filed as an exhibit to this report which has been incorporated by
reference into this Item 2.02, the Company has disclosed alternative proved reserve estimates
assuming natural gas prices other than those in effect on December 31, 2006 solely for illustrative
purposes to demonstrate hypothetically the effect that year end economic conditions have on the
Companys proved reserve estimates. The natural gas price used in these alternative presentations
were selected by management. In addition, the transcript contains disclosures concerning certain
non-proved reserves and well locations, referenced as probable or possible well locations and
reserves. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has generally permitted oil
and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved reserves that a company
has demonstrated by actual production or conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally
producible under economic and operating conditions existing at the date of the report. Accordingly,
the SEC guidelines may prohibit us from including these alternatively priced proved reserve
estimates in filings with the SEC. The information included in this report, including information
in the exhibit, is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that
Section, nor shall any information in this report be incorporated by reference in any registration
statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless such incorporation is
expressly stated in such registration statement or a related prospectus.
