The revenue in the second quarter of 2017 came from the sale of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs produced primarily from horizontal wells in which we participated as a non-operator and which were placed in service primarily during the first quarter of 2017, and to a much lesser extent, the vertical wells that we acquired during 2016.
The Company's 2017 second quarter net loss totaled $733,469, or $(0.03) per share compared to a net loss of $918,201 or $(0.04) per share in the 2016 second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter was $2,948,603 as compared to $(510,556) in the prior year quarter.

Management Comment
Steve Foley, CEO of PetroShare commented, "Our transition from asset aggregation in the DJ Basin in 2016 to production and reserve growth this year is exemplified in our second quarter 2017 results. Our primary strategy to create value by focusing on properties that meet certain geo-mechanical metrics is working well for the Company. Many other operators are ramping up activities in areas where we have interests and our participation as a non-operator has increased as a result. In addition to our non-operated activity, we are completing drilling operations of our operated Shook Pad, where we are presently drilling the last of 14 wells. Subject to available capital, we anticipate beginning completion operations in late Q4 2017 and continuing into Q1 2018. The second quarter of 2017 was the first in the Company's history with significant revenues, operating income and positive adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). We believe we are well-positioned to improve upon those and other financial metrics, in a meaningful way, with an objective to create value for all shareholders in the future."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use non-GAAP financial performance and liquidity measures to supplement the financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the related GAAP measures, nor should they be considered superior to the related GAAP measures, and should be read together with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Also, our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
This earnings release discusses Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial performance measure that we believe is widely used in our industry as a measure of operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before (1) depreciation, depletion and accretion, (2) share-based compensation, and (3) interest expense, net. We exclude those items because they can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, and the method by which the assets were acquired. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss).
Management and our Board of Directors use Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of evaluating company performance. We believe the Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and other stakeholders by allowing them to view our business through the eyes of management and our Board of Directors, facilitating comparisons of results across historical periods and focus on the underlying ongoing operating performance of our business.
Users should consider the limitations of using Adjusted EBITDA, including the fact that this measure does not provide a complete measure of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be an alternative to net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In particular, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for management's discretionary expenditures, as this measure does not consider certain cash requirements, such as working capital needs, capital expenditures, contractual commitments, and interest payments.
The following table reconciles net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure:
