Amplify Energy Corp.

HOUSTON, Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amplify Energy Corp. (NYSE: AMPY) (“Amplify” or the “Company”) announced today its operating and financial results for the second quarter of 2023.

  • Generated net cash provided by operating activities of $4.9 million and net income of $9.8 million

  • Delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $17.6 million

  • Generated $6.1 million of free cash flow

  • Reaffirmed our full-year 2023 guidance

  • Entered into a new revolving credit facility with an initial borrowing base of $150 million and elected commitments of $135 million

  • As of July 31, 2023, net debt was $113 million, consisting of $120 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $7 million of cash on hand

    (1)  Net debt as of July 31, 2023, and LTM Adjusted EBITDA as of the second quarter of 2023

Martyn Willsher, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Amplify delivered strong second-quarter results, driven primarily by the performance of our Beta assets and the development of our non-operated Eagle Ford assets. Production rates and wells brought online at Beta continue to exceed initial projections, and we are optimistic that the assets will return to full production levels ahead of schedule. Strong operational performance delivered financial results in line with Company projections and enabled Amplify to reaffirm its full-year 2023 guidance. Amplify continued its commitment to generating free cash flow during the quarter, and we expect to do so for the foreseeable future.”

Mr. Willsher continued, “Despite a challenging credit market, we successfully refinanced our debt outstanding and closed a new four-year credit facility with $135 million in elected commitments. We would like to express our appreciation for the support from KeyBank and the syndicate of lenders, and we look forward to a strong, long-lasting partnership.”

Mr. Willsher concluded, “The last two years have presented challenging headwinds for the Company, but we are moving beyond those issues with the successful restart of operations at Beta and the refinance of our revolving credit facility. Having achieved these critical milestones, Amplify’s management team and Board are focused on value-enhancing initiatives that will drive additional returns for our stakeholders.”

Key Financial Results

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company reported net income of approximately $9.8 million compared to $352.8 million in the prior quarter. First quarter net income included the receipt of $84.9 million in net proceeds from the Beta settlement and the recognition of a $259.5 million deferred income tax benefit, which were both non-recurring items. Additional information can be found in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Amplify generated $17.6 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of approximately $8.2 million from $25.8 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to the termination of loss of production income (“LOPI”) proceeds and lower realized commodity prices (net of hedges), partially offset by higher production.

Free cash flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest and capital spending, was $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2023.

New Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity Update

On July 31, 2023, Amplify, together with its subsidiaries, entered into a new senior secured reserve-based revolving credit facility with KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent, with an initial borrowing base of $150 million. At closing, participants committed $135 million, providing ample liquidity for the Company.

The borrowing base will be redetermined on a semi-annual basis with the next redetermination expected in the fourth quarter of 2023. Borrowings under the new credit facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) adjusted SOFR or (ii) an adjusted base rate, plus an applicable margin based on a utilization ratio of the lesser of the borrowing base and the aggregate commitments. The applicable margin ranges from 2.00% to 3.00% for adjusted base rate borrowings, and 3.00% to 4.00% for adjusted SOFR borrowings. The new credit facility has a maturity date of July 31, 2027.

As of July 31, 2023, Amplify had total debt of $120 million under its new credit facility, with a borrowing base of $135 million. Amplify’s liquidity was $22 million as of July 31, 2023, consisting of $7 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of $15 million. Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA was 1.2x (net debt as of July 31, 2023).

Corporate Production and Pricing Update

During the second quarter of 2023, average daily production was approximately 21.2 MBoepd, an increase of 9% from 19.4 MBoepd in the first quarter. This increase was primarily due to the return of production in late April at Beta, partially offset by third-party interruptions in East Texas and weather-related downtime in Oklahoma. The Company’s product mix for the quarter was 38% crude oil, 17% NGLs, and 45% natural gas.

	% - Liquids			55%			49%
Note: 2Q23 Southern California (Beta) production from April 24, 2023 – June 30, 2023.

The Company anticipates overall production for the remainder of 2023 to remain flat or increase with incremental oil volumes at Beta as wells continue to be brought back online and returned to full production. Production at Bairoil is expected to decrease in the third quarter in connection with the scheduled maintenance turnaround, partially offset by continued workover projects and facility enhancing initiatives. In East Texas and Oklahoma, the Company continues to execute on accretive workover and compressor optimization projects, which are expected to reduce natural declines.

Total oil, natural gas and NGL revenues for the second quarter of 2023 were approximately $67.4 million, before the impact of derivatives, compared to $66.3 million in the prior quarter. The Company realized a gain on commodity derivatives of $1.5 million during the quarter, compared to a $2.7 million loss during the previous quarter. Oil and gas revenues, net of realized hedges, increased $5.3 million for the second quarter compared to first quarter 2023.

Costs and Expenses

Lease operating expenses in the second quarter of 2023 were approximately $34.9 million, or $18.10 per Boe. Operating expenses were $1.9 million higher than first-quarter 2023 operating expenses, primarily due to returning the Beta Field to production. Second quarter operating costs per Boe were down 4% versus the prior quarter.

The Company is pursuing cost reduction initiatives across all asset areas. These opportunities include electrifying a substantial portion of Beta platforms to significantly reduce power expenses, in-sourcing Company-owned compressors to replace high-cost rental compression in East Texas, and converting wells to more efficient artificial lift methods in Oklahoma.

Severance and Ad Valorem taxes in the second quarter were approximately $5.2 million, a decrease of $0.1 million compared to $5.3 million in the prior quarter. Severance and Ad Valorem taxes as a percentage of revenue were approximately 7.7% this quarter compared to 8.0% in the previous quarter.

Amplify incurred $5.1 million, or $2.67 per Boe, of gathering, processing and transportation expenses in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $5.6 million, or $3.21 per Boe, in the previous quarter. The reduction was primarily attributable to lower gathering expenses in Oklahoma due to lower commodity prices and volumes compared to the prior quarter.

Second quarter cash G&A expenses were $6.2 million, a decrease of $1.4 million from $7.6 million in the first quarter of 2023. We expect cash G&A to remain at approximately this same level throughout the remainder of 2023.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $7.1 million, or $3.67 per Boe, compared to $5.8 million, or $3.33 per Boe, in the prior quarter.

Net interest expense was $3.7 million this quarter, a decrease of $2.0 million from $5.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to lower debt outstanding under our credit facility, partially offset by higher interest rates in the second quarter.

Amplify recorded a current income tax benefit of $6.9 million for the second quarter of 2023.

Capital Investment Update

Cash capital investment during the second quarter of 2023 was approximately $7.9 million, a $1.1 million decrease from $9.0 million in the prior quarter. The majority of capital investment in the second quarter was related to facility costs at Beta, non-operated development activity in the Eagle Ford, and workover activity in Oklahoma.

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

		Second Quarter			Year to Date
		2023 Capital			Capital
		Spend ($ MM)			Spend ($ MM)
Oklahoma		$	1.4		$	3.2
Rockies (Bairoil)		$	0.3		$	0.3
Southern California (Beta)		$	4.7		$	6.6
East Texas / North Louisiana		$	0.1		$	0.3
Eagle Ford (Non-Op)		$	1.4		$	6.5
Total Capital Invested		$	7.9		$	16.9

The Company’s capital investments for the remainder of 2023 will focus primarily on Beta and Bairoil facilities projects. Facility upgrades at Beta will improve operational efficiencies, reduce power expenses and significantly reduce emissions. The emissions reduction will also substantially reduce the Company’s emissions credit expenses. In Bairoil, capital projects are expected to greatly improve water flood management and the overall performance of the asset.

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; 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; LOPI-timing differences; and other 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 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.
