Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On March 9, 2012, Energy Partners, Ltd. (“EPL” or the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting the issuance on March 8, 2012 of a press release announcing financial and operational results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2011. A copy of the press release issued by the Company was attached as Exhibit 99.1 but it did not contain the Consolidated Statements of Operations, which had been included in the press release published on the Company’s website and released to news wire services on March 8, 2012. The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to replace Exhibit 99.1 of the original Form 8-K filed on March 9, 2012.

The information furnished pursuant to this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and will not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless specifically identified therein as being incorporated therein by reference.
