(1) Net debt as of April 30, 2022, and LTM EBITDA as of the first quarter of 2022

Martyn Willsher, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Amplify is off to a strong start in 2022. We are leveraging the current commodity price environment to exceed internal production forecasts, improve price realizations, manage cost inflation and generate substantial free cash flow, all without the benefit of the unhedged oil volumes currently offline at our Beta field. For the remainder of 2022, we anticipate allocating additional capital to high-return workover and non-operated development projects, while remaining focused on generating free cash flow and improving our balance sheet to further drive stockholder value.”

Mr. Willsher continued, “We continue to engage with regulatory agencies in order to obtain the remaining required approvals to expeditiously repair and restart our pipeline and bring the Beta field back online. I’m very pleased to report that we have been making significant progress toward that effort. On April 15th, we received approval from PHMSA for the permanent repair plan and are currently awaiting approval from the Army Corps of Engineers to commence repair operations.”

Board of Director Changes

On April 7, 2022, the Company announced the appointment of Deborah (“Debbie”) G. Adams and Eric T. Greager to the Board. Ms. Adams and Mr. Greager joined the Board following a comprehensive process, conducted with the assistance of a nationally recognized search firm, to complement the Board’s existing credentials and qualifications. Ms. Adams was most recently the Senior Vice President of Health, Safety, and Environmental, Projects and Procurement at Phillips 66. Mr. Greager is the former President, Chief Executive Officer, and Executive Director of Civitas Resources, Inc.

Key Financial Results

During the first quarter of 2022, Amplify generated $24.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA, an increase of approximately $14.1 million from $10.8 million in the prior quarter. The increase in the first quarter was attributable to loss of production income (“LOPI”) insurance payments related to the Incident and higher commodity prices, partially offset by higher cash operating expenses. The Company recognized $17.5 million of LOPI during the quarter, representing four months of LOPI insurance payments. Amplify will continue to recognize LOPI proceeds at the time they are approved by insurers for the remainder of the policy period or until Beta is returned to full production.

Free cash flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest and capital spending, was $14.9 million in the first quarter of 2022.

  First Quarter Fourth Quarter
$ in millions  2022   2021
Net income (loss) ($48.6)   $35.8
Net cash provided by operating activities $9.7   $7.7
Average daily production (MBoe/d) 20.4   20.8
Total revenues $111.4   $93.1
Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) $24.9   $10.8
Total capital $6.9   $3.5
Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) $14.9   $4.0
     

Revolving Credit Facility

Beginning in February 2022, the borrowing base under the revolving credit facility has been and will continue to be reduced by $5 million per month until the spring borrowing base redetermination, which is currently underway and expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2022. As of April 30, 2022, the Company’s borrowing base is $230 million.

As of April 30, 2022, Amplify had net debt of $197 million, consisting of $215 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility and $18 million of cash on hand. Net Debt to LTM EBITDA was 2.3x (net debt as of April 30, 2022 and 1Q22 LTM EBITDA).

Corporate Production and Pricing Update

During the first quarter of 2022, average daily production was approximately 20.4 MBoepd, a slight decrease from 20.8 MBoepd in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company’s product mix for the quarter consisted of 32% crude oil, 18% NGLs, and 50% natural gas.

Total oil, natural gas and NGL revenues in the first quarter were approximately $93.9 million, before the impact of derivatives, compared to $86.3 million in the prior quarter. The Company realized a loss on commodity derivatives of $30.9 million during the quarter, compared to a $34.2 million net loss during the previous quarter.

During the first quarter, Amplify started recognizing certain natural gas revenue deductions as gathering, processing and transportation expenses due to the Company electing to take its gas in-kind in Oklahoma. This resulted in an increase to Amplify’s realized natural gas pricing during the quarter, which was partially offset by increased gathering, processing and transportation expenses.

Costs and Expenses

Lease operating expenses in the first quarter of 2022 were approximately $32.9 million, or $17.92 per Boe, an increase of approximately $3.5 million compared to $29.4 million, or $15.34 per Boe, in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to increased expense workover projects in Oklahoma, Bairoil and the non-operated Eagle Ford, and higher expenses as a result of inflation across our asset base.

Severance and Ad Valorem taxes in the first quarter were approximately $7.6 million, an increase of $1.1 million compared to $6.5 million in the previous quarter. On a percentage basis, Amplify paid approximately 8.0% of total oil, NGL and natural gas sales revenue in taxes this quarter compared to 7.6% in the previous quarter.

Amplify incurred $8.0 million, or $4.36 per Boe, of gathering, processing and transportation expenses in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $6.1 million, or $3.20 per Boe, in the prior quarter. As noted previously, the increase in the first quarter 2022 is primarily attributable to the Company marketing its own natural gas in Oklahoma, resulting in a reclassification of certain revenue deductions to gathering, processing and transportation expenses.

Due to year-end processes, first quarter cash G&A expenses are typically the highest of the year, and the first quarter cash G&A expenses of $7.1 million was an expected increase of $0.9 million from $6.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the first quarter totaled $5.6 million, or $3.07 per Boe, compared to $6.3 million, or $3.31 per Boe, in the prior quarter.

Net interest expense was $2.4 million this quarter, a decrease of $0.4 million from $2.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Amplify had an effective tax rate of 0% and did not record an income tax expense or benefit for the first quarter of 2022.

Capital Spending Update

Cash capital spending during the first quarter of 2022 was approximately $6.9 million, a $3.4 million increase from $3.5 million in the prior quarter. A majority of the capital expenditures in the first quarter were related to the planned development activity in our Eagle Ford and East Texas assets and accelerated workover activity in Oklahoma to capitalize on current commodity prices.

The following table details Amplify’s capital incurred during the quarter:

    First Quarter
    2022 Capital
    Spend ($ MM)
Oklahoma   $ 1.9
Rockies (Bairoil)   $ 0.6
Southern California (Beta)   $ 0.0
East Texas / North Louisiana   $ 1.7
Eagle Ford (Non-Op)   $ 2.6
Total Capital Spent   $ 6.9
     

Asset Operational Update and Statistics

Oklahoma:

  • Production: 548 MBoe; 6.1 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 21% oil, 28 % NGLs, 51% natural gas
  • LOE: $5.1 million; $9.36 per Boe
  • Capex: $1.9 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. The workover program is focused on rod-lift conversions and ESP optimizations, which reduce future operating expenses and downtime and generate highly attractive returns in the current pricing environment. During 2022, Amplify expects to further accelerate its workover program and bring additional wells and incremental production online.

Rockies (Bairoil):

  • Production: 342 MBoe; 3.8 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 100% oil
  • LOE: $13.1 million; $38.37 per Boe
  • Capex: $0.6 million

The Company continued its CO2 injection and water-alternating-gas pattern optimization at Bairoil to improve production performance. The first quarter of 2022 delivered strong operational reliability of the production facilities, and the technical team continued extensive evaluation of the reservoir to facilitate these efforts. Amplify intends to continue using new technologies, along with targeted workover activity and well stimulation, to drive further operational improvements and efficiencies.

Southern California (Beta):

  • Production: 17 MBoe; 0.2 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 100% oil
  • LOE: $6.9 million
  • Capex: $0.0 million

As previously disclosed, other than in connection with required regulatory flushing operations to secure and temporarily repair the pipeline, all of the Company’s production and pipeline operations at the Beta field have been suspended. Amplify’s focus remains on obtaining the remaining required regulatory approvals to repair and restart the pipeline as soon as practicable.

East Texas and North Louisiana:

  • Production: 5.1 Bcfe; 56.4 MMcfepd (845 MBoe; 9.4 MBoepd)
    • Commodity Mix: 5% oil, 20% NGLs, 75% natural gas
  • LOE: $5.6 million; $1.10 per Mcfe ($6.61 per Boe)
  • Capex: $1.7 million

Amplify’s East Texas operating strategy continues to focus on prudent management of production by prioritizing high-return workover projects and opportunistically participating in non-operated development opportunities. As previously disclosed, the Company participated in three non-operated development wells that are planned to be brought online in the third quarter of 2022. Amplify is actively pursuing additional opportunities to bolster future free cash flow generation within our asset base.

Non-Operated Eagle Ford:

  • Production: 85 MBoe; 0.9 MBoepd
    • Commodity Mix: 73% oil, 13% NGLs, 14% natural gas
  • LOE: $2.2 million; $25.33 per Boe
  • Capex: $2.6 million

Amplify continues to opportunistically participate in attractive non-operated Eagle Ford development and recompletion projects as they arise. The Company’s operating partners are currently completing several new development wells in areas where we hold interests, which the Company expects to be brought online during the second quarter of 2022.

2022 Guidance Update

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 updated 2022 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. Due to uncertainty regarding Beta’s restart timeline, the guidance below does not assume Beta returns to production in 2022. Guidance will be updated when additional information is available.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and net debt. 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; impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments; losses on sale of assets; unit-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; acquisition and divestiture related expenses; amortization of gain associated with terminated commodity derivatives, bad debt expense; and other non-routine items, less interest income; gain on extinguishment of debt; income tax benefit; gains on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements paid on expired commodity derivative instruments; gains on sale of assets and other, net; and other non-routine items. 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 income taxes; cash interest expense; and total 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.
