Item 8.01. Other Information.
On December 7, 2010, Gulfport Energy Corporation (the “Company”) filed its Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) in response to a comment letter received by the Company from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding certain of its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In the Original 8-K, the Company included as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, the revised reports from Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. (“NSAI”) and Pinnacle Energy Services, LLC (“Pinnacle”), respectively, each for the year ended December 31, 2009, to address certain of the SEC’s comments. In response to a second letter received by the Company from the SEC on March 4, 2011, the Company is filing this report on Form 8-K/A to include, as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, the 2009 reports from NSAI and Pinnacle, respectively, together with their respective consents filed as Exhibits 23.1 and 23.2, which reports were further revised in response to the second letter from the SEC. Neither of the revised reports changes any of the reserve information previously disclosed by the Company.
