Amplify Energy Announces Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Results, Year-End 2022 Proved Reserves and Full-Year 2023 Guidance

HOUSTON, March 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amplify Energy Corp. (NYSE: AMPY) (“Amplify” or the “Company”) announced today its operating and financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2022, year-end 2022 proved reserves and guidance for full-year 2023.

Key Highlights

Martyn Willsher, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am proud of all we accomplished at Amplify in 2022. The Company performed well operationally and financially during the year, while resolving the civil and criminal matters related to the Incident in Southern California, successfully repairing the pipeline, and preparing our facilities for the return of Beta’s production.”

Willsher continued, “Amplify is looking forward to 2023 as we seek the final remaining approval to restart our pipeline and bring the Beta field back online. This year we anticipate allocating capital to high-return workover and non-operated development projects across our mature, diverse portfolio of assets, generating sustainable free cash flow and further improving our balance sheet.”

“Lastly, the additional unhedged oil production from the planned return of our Beta field, combined with the proceeds from the settlement, will provide us with additional strategic opportunities to enhance shareholder value in the near future,” Mr. Willsher concluded.

Key Financial Results

During the fourth quarter of 2022, Amplify generated $21.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA, a decrease of approximately $8.9 million from $30.8 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower realized commodity prices, which were intensified by large natural gas basis differentials experienced in the fourth quarter, partially offset by lower fourth quarter commodity hedge settlement payments and higher loss of production income (“LOPI”) proceeds. For the fourth quarter, the Company recognized $15.2 million of LOPI proceeds, which represents three months of LOPI payments and includes a $1.5 million true-up for prior period settlements, compared to $13.3 million for the prior quarter.

Amplify will continue to recognize LOPI proceeds at the time they are approved by insurers for the remainder of the policy period which ends on March 31, 2023.

Free cash flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest and capital spending, was $12.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Revolving Credit Facility

On December 9, 2022, the Company completed its regularly scheduled semi-annual borrowing base redetermination and entered into an amendment to extend its credit agreement from November 2, 2023 to May 31, 2024. The redetermination resulted in a revised borrowing base of $215 million, effective December 9, 2022, with scheduled monthly reductions beginning on December 31, 2022 of $5 million until otherwise redetermined or adjusted in accordance with the provisions of the credit agreement. The next regularly scheduled borrowing base redetermination is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2023. As of February 28, 2023, the Company’s borrowing base was $200 million.

As of February 28, 2023, Amplify had net debt of $167 million, consisting of $185 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $18 million of cash on hand. Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA was 1.8x (net debt as of February 28, 2023 and 4Q22 LTM Adjusted EBITDA).

Corporate Production and Pricing Update

During the fourth quarter of 2022, average daily production was approximately 20.8 MBoepd, a decrease of 1% from 21.0 MBoepd in the third quarter, due to natural field declines. The Company’s product mix for the quarter consisted of 30% crude oil, 18% NGLs, and 52% natural gas.

Total oil, natural gas and NGL revenues for the fourth quarter of 2022 were approximately $88.2 million, before the impact of derivatives, compared to $112.8 million in the third quarter. The Company realized a loss on commodity derivatives of $27.9 million during the quarter, compared to a $40.8 million loss during the previous quarter. Revenues for the fourth quarter were impacted by weak market conditions, which caused lower realized commodity prices and were intensified by unseasonably large natural gas basis differentials in East Texas and Oklahoma that have subsequently improved.

Costs and Expenses

Lease operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 were approximately $33.4 million, or $17.43 per Boe, an increase of approximately $1.4 million compared to $32.0 million, or $16.56 per Boe, in the third quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to higher facility and workover expense projects at Bairoil and modest cost inflation across the asset base.

Severance and Ad Valorem taxes in the fourth quarter were approximately $8.0 million, a decrease of $1.2 million compared to $9.2 million in the third quarter. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was a result of lower commodity pricing. On a percentage basis, Amplify paid approximately 9.0% of total oil, NGL and natural gas sales revenue in taxes this quarter compared to 8.1% in the previous quarter.

Amplify incurred $6.3 million, or $3.30 per Boe, of gathering, processing and transportation expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $7.5 million, or $3.87 per Boe, in the previous quarter. The reduction was primarily attributable to lower expenses in East Texas, attributable to the expiration of our minimum volume commitment (“MVC”) in October 2022, and in Oklahoma, as a result of lower commodity prices and volumes compared to the prior quarter. We expect gathering costs in East Texas to continue decreasing from prior quarters from the contractual reduction of committed volumes over time and in Oklahoma from the expiration of the MVC in June 2023.

Fourth quarter cash G&A expenses were $6.1 million, held flat compared to $6.1 million in the third quarter of 2022.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $6.2 million, or $3.21 per Boe, compared to $6.3 million, or $3.25 per Boe, in the prior quarter.

Net interest expense was $4.6 million this quarter, an increase of $0.6 million from $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2022.

Amplify had an effective tax rate of 0.4% and recorded an income tax expense of $0.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Capital Spending Update

Cash capital spending during the fourth quarter of 2022 was approximately $5.5 million, a $4.4 million decrease from $9.9 million in the third quarter. The majority of the capital expenditures in the fourth quarter were related to workover activity in Oklahoma and non-operated development activity in the Eagle Ford.

The following table details Amplify’s capital incurred during the quarter and full-year 2022:

  Fourth Quarter Full-Year

Asset Operational Update and Statistics

Oklahoma:

  • Production: 605 MBoe; 6.6 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 20% oil, 28% NGLs, 52% natural gas
  • LOE: $6.1 million; $10.06 per Boe
  • Capex: $2.8 million

Amplify’s operating strategy in Oklahoma remains focused on prioritizing a stable free cash flow profile and managing production through an active workover program, which held full-year 2022 production flat compared to 2021, despite severe weather and incremental third-party interruptions. During the fourth quarter, the Company shifted from three to two workover rigs as it continued working through its inventory of offline wells and artificial lift enhancements. Amplify intends to maintain this less capital-intensive workover pace going forward, focusing on rod-lift conversions and ESP optimizations, which offset natural production declines and reduce future operating expenses and downtime. Additionally, gathering costs in Oklahoma are also expected to continue decreasing as the asset’s MVC expires in June 2023.

Rockies (Bairoil):

  • Production: 343 MBoe; 3.7 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 100% oil
  • LOE: $13.1 million; $38.19 per Boe
  • Capex: $0.5 million

Production at Bairoil in the fourth quarter of 2022 reflected the strong operational reliability of the production facilities and was 100 Boepd higher than the previous quarter. As a result of the technical team’s efforts to optimize reservoir performance, full-year production in 2022 averaged just 1% less than 2021. Going forward, we expect to reduce operating expenses, while focusing on enhancing water alternating gas injection performance through targeted well recompletions and conversions, which will offset nominal production declines and support a stable free cash flow profile.

Southern California (Beta):

  • Production: 0 MBoe; 0.0 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 100% oil
  • LOE: $6.4 million
  • Capex: $0.4 million

As previously disclosed, all of the Company’s production and pipeline operations at the Beta field have been suspended. Amplify has successfully repaired the pipeline and remains focused on restarting the pipeline as soon as practicable, pending federal regulatory approval. In anticipation of returning the field to production, the Company is also completing necessary facilities projects. 

East Texas and North Louisiana:

  • Production: 5.2 Bcfe; 56.8 MMcfepd (872 MBoe; 9.5 MBoepd)
    • Commodity Mix: 5% oil, 19% NGLs, 76% natural gas
  • LOE: $6.5 million; $1.24 per Mcfe ($7.41 per Boe)
  • Capex: $0.5 million

Amplify’s strategy in East Texas continues to focus on prudent management of production by prioritizing high-return workover projects and opportunistically participating in non-operated development opportunities. The asset team is working to optimize field compression in order to enhance production and lower lease operating costs. During the fourth quarter, the East Texas MVC expired, and such expiration will contribute to a reduction in gathering costs going forward.

Non-Operated Eagle Ford:

  • Production: 98 MBoe; 1.1 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 77% oil, 12% NGLs, 11% natural gas
  • LOE: $1.4 million; $14.35 per Boe
  • Capex: $1.3 million

Amplify continues to participate in attractive non-operated Eagle Ford development and recompletion projects as they arise. We are currently participating in 11 gross (1.0 net) new development projects with highly accretive returns, including two recompletion projects, which are projected to be online in the second quarter of 2023.

Full-Year 2023 Guidance

The following guidance is subject to the cautionary statements and limitations described under the "Forward-Looking Statements" caption at the end of this press release. Amplify's 2023 guidance is based on its current expectations regarding capital expenditure levels and on the assumption that market demand and prices for oil and natural gas will continue at levels that allow for economic production of these products. The guidance below assumes Beta returns to production in April 2023.

A summary of the guidance is presented below:

(3) Refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for Amplify’s definition and use of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure
(4) Refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for Amplify’s definition and use of free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure
(5) Amplify believes that a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking information to the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP cannot be made available without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures would require Amplify to predict the timing and likelihood of future transactions and other items that are difficult to accurately predict. Neither of these forward-looking measures, nor their probable significance, can be quantified with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures is not provided.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, net debt and PV-10. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities, standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Amplify does.

Adjusted EBITDA. Amplify defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, plus interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments; share-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; loss on settlement of AROs; bad debt expense; pipeline incident loss; pipeline incident settlement; and LOPI-timing differences. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of Amplify’s financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) its operating performance as compared to other companies in Amplify’s industry without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support Amplify’s indebtedness; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA are net income and net cash provided by operating activities.

Free cash flow. Amplify defines free cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and capital expenditures. Free cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify’s investors since it serves as an indicator of the Company’s success in providing a cash return on investment. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to free cash flow are net income and net cash provided by operating activities.

Net debt. Amplify defines net debt as the total principal amount drawn on the revolving credit facility less cash and cash equivalents. The Company uses net debt as a measure of financial position and believes this measure provides useful additional information to investors to evaluate the Company's capital structure and financial leverage.

PV-10. PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents the present value of estimated future cash inflows from proved oil and natural gas reserves that are calculated using the unweighted arithmetic average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months, less future development and operating costs, discounted at 10% per annum to reflect the timing of future cash flows. The most directly comparable GAAP measure to PV-10 is standardized measure. PV-10 differs from standardized measure in its treatment of estimated future income taxes, which are excluded from PV-10. Amplify believes the presentation of PV-10 provides useful information because it is widely used by investors in evaluating oil and natural gas companies without regard to specific income tax characteristics of such entities. PV-10 is not intended to represent the current market value of our estimated proved reserves. PV-10 should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the standardized measure as defined under GAAP.

The Company also presents PV-10 at strip pricing, which is PV-10 adjusted for price sensitivities. As GAAP does not prescribe a comparable GAAP measure for PV-10 of reserves adjusted for pricing sensitivities, it is not practicable for us to reconcile PV-10 at strip pricing to a standardized measure or any other GAAP measure.
