1.    Description of the Disposition and Basis of Presentation
 
The Disposition
 
On March 14, 2025, Barnwell Industries, Inc. (“BII”) and Barnwell of Canada, Limited (“Barnwell Canada” and, collectively with BII, the “Sellers”), a subsidiary of BII, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Denise Miyasato, Chad Arima and Eric Eldred (collectively the “Buyer”) whereby the Buyer acquired from the Sellers all of the shares of capital stock of Water Resources International, Inc. (the “Shares”) owned by the Sellers (the “Purchase Agreement”), hereafter referred to as the Transaction. Water Resources International, Inc. (“WRI”) explores and develops groundwater resources for government, commercial and private clients in Hawaii and conducts deep drilling and deep well pumping in Hawaii (the “Business”). The sale and purchase of the Shares (the “Transaction”) closed (the “Closing”) simultaneously with the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement by each of the parties thereto on March 14, 2025 (the “Closing Date”).
 
The aggregate purchase price for the Shares is $1,050,000 (the “Purchase Price”), which was paid at Closing by the Buyer as follows: an initial aggregate cash payment of $250,000 and the delivery of a promissory note with a principal amount of $800,000 to the Sellers (the “Promissory Note”). The principal payments on the Promissory Note are to be paid in installments on the following schedule:  May 15, 2025: $200,000; June 16, 2025: $150,000; July 15, 2025: $150,000; August 15, 2025: $150,000; and September 15, 2025: $150,000. The Promissory Note is secured by certain specified assets of WRI.
 
The Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. While the historical consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s past financial results, the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are included solely for informational purposes and are intended to illustrate how the Transaction might have affected the historical consolidated financial statements had it been completed earlier, as indicated herein:
 
• The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2024, as adjusted, gives effect to the Disposition Adjustments as if they had occurred or become effective on September 30, 2024;
 
• The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024, as adjusted, gives effect to the Disposition Adjustments as if they had occurred or become effective on December 31, 2024;
 
• The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended September 30, 2024 and for the three months ended December 31, 2024, as adjusted, give effect to the Disposition Adjustments as if they had occurred or become effective on October 1, 2023.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements Disposition Adjustments column presents adjustments for the removal of historical operations of the Divested Business and the addition of intercompany revenue and expense from continuing operations of the Company previously eliminated within consolidation to illustrate the separation and transfer of the operations, assets, and liabilities of the Company’s historical financial results in accordance with ASC 205 and ASC 360 to Buyer for each respective period.
 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not project the Company’s future consolidated financial statements, nor are they intended to represent or indicate the actual consolidated financial statements that the Company would have had if the Transaction had occurred on the indicated dates. Furthermore, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the realization of any expected cost savings, synergies, or dis-synergies resulting from the Transaction, and they do not encompass all actions that the Company may undertake subsequent to the closing of the Transaction.
 
 2. Pro Forma Adjustments
 
Adjustments included in the Pro Forma Adjustments column in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements include the following:
 
Disposition Adjustments: Pro Forma Adjustments to historical financial results directly attributable to the Transaction in accordance with ASC 205. This reflects the separation of the discontinued operations, including the elimination of associated assets, liabilities, equity, and income (loss) attributable to the Transaction, that were included in the Company’s historical financial statements. In accordance with ASC 205, the amounts exclude general corporate overhead costs that were historically allocated to the Divested Business and do not meet the requirements to be presented in discontinued operations.
 
The adjustment to Cash and cash equivalents and Note receivable includes the pro forma impact of the Disposition as of September 30, 2024. The final sales price is subject to change based on adjustments to transaction costs and post-closing working capital adjustments. Thus, the final net cash proceeds and gain or loss on the Disposition will be determined subsequent to the closing of the Transaction and may differ from the adjustment.
 
For purposes of the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, the estimated pro forma loss on sale is recognized in Stockholders’ Equity based on the historical net carrying value as of September 30, 2024, of the Divested Business rather than as of the closing date of the Transaction. The final gain or loss on disposition will be calculated based on the final amount of consideration received, carrying value of the Divested Business at the closing date, and the finalization of the Company’s current fiscal period tax provision. As a result, the pro forma gain reflected herein may differ from the actual gain or loss on the Transaction recorded as of the closing date.
 
The estimated pro forma loss on disposal has not been reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, as this amount pertains to discontinued operations and does not have a continuing impact on the Company’s consolidated results.

*The historical balance sheet at December 31, 2024 reflected the $585,000 deposit on the sale of a WRI drilling rig to a party other than the Buyer as a liability. However, the sale of the drilling rig by WRI was consummated in February 2025 and therefore the net assets sold to Buyer as of the Transaction date included the derecognition of the deposit liability and corresponding recognition of the gain on the sale of the drilling rig.
