Ring Energy Announces Results For Second Quarter of 2022

Sales Volumes at Higher End of Guidance Driving Increased Guidance for the Full Year

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ring Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: REI) (“Ring” or the “Company”) today reported operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2022. In addition, Ring provided third quarter guidance and increased its full year 2022 sales volumes outlook.

Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

● Recorded quarterly sales revenue of $85.0 million, which was the highest in the Company’s history;

● Produced sales volumes of 9,341 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“Boe/d”) (86% oil) were 5% higher than the first quarter of 2022 and at the higher end of Ring’s guidance range of 9,000 to 9,400 Boe/d (86% oil);

● Increased Net Income nearly six-fold to $41.9 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, from $7.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022;

● Reported Adjusted Net Income¹ of $31.3 million, or $0.29 per share, which was a 40% increase from $22.3 million, or $0.22 per share, in the first quarter of 2022;

● Increased Adjusted EBITDA¹ by 33% to $47.4 million from $35.6 million for the first quarter of 2022;

o Represents the highest level of quarterly Adjusted EBITDA in the Company’s history:

o Adjusted EBITDA was $82.9 million in first half of 2022, which was nearly equal to the $83.3 million generated in full year 2021;

● Generated Cash Flow from Operations¹ of $44.3 million and Free Cash Flow¹ of $2.5 million;

● Paid down $10.0 million of debt on the Company’s revolving credit facility;

o Reduced the debt to trailing 12-month Adjusted EBITDA (”Leverage”) ratio to 2.1x compared to 3.5x at year end 2021;

o Increased liquidity to $81.5 million, a 32% increase from year-end 2021;

● Drilled nine wells, placed on production seven wells (two of which were drilled in first quarter), and began the completion process on four wells – all on the Company’s

● Northwest Shelf (“NWS”) acreage;

● Converted four wells (three in the NWS and one in the Central Basin Platform (“CBP”)) from downhole electrical submersible pumps to rod pumps (“CTRs”), thereby reducing costly workovers and long-term operating costs; and

● Provided third quarter guidance and an improved outlook for full year sales volumes and operating costs, while leaving capital spending guidance unchanged.

¹ A non-GAAP financial measure; see “Non- GAAP Information” section in this release for more information including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Subsequent Events

On July 5, 2022, the Company announced it had entered into an agreement to acquire (the “Transaction”) the assets of privately-held Stronghold Energy II Operating, LLC and Stronghold Energy II Royalties, LP (collectively, “Stronghold”). Stronghold’s operations are focused on the development of approximately 37,000 net acres in the Permian Basin’s CBP, where Ring also conducts operations. The effective date of the Transaction is June 1, 2022 and closing is anticipated during the third quarter. As a result, the impact from the Transaction will not be included in Ring’s financial and operational results until following the closing of the transaction.

Management Commentary

Mr. Paul D. McKinney, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The continued strong performance of our drilling and completions program, bolstered by significantly higher commodity prices, enhanced our second quarter results and led to record quarterly revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA increased 33% from this year’s first quarter and we have generated nearly as much Adjusted EBITDA in the first half of 2022 as we did in the entire prior year. We also generated Free Cash Flow for the 11 ^th consecutive quarter, as well as reduced debt by $10 million. We have now paid down $20 million in debt in 2022 and lowered our leverage ratio to 2.1x, which was almost a full turn and a half lower than at year-end 2021. We believe our strong operational and financial results for this quarter clearly reflect the merits of our value-focused and proven strategy and is a direct reflection of the hard work of our workforce. I want to thank our entire team for their dedication and commitment to generating value for our stockholders.”

Mr. McKinney continued, “During the second quarter, our development program was focused on our NWS acreage on which we drilled nine wells, completed and placed on production seven wells, and initiated the completion of four additional wells. I am pleased to report that our production results from the wells brought online in the second quarter have met or exceeded our expectations, and we will continue to leverage industry-leading drilling and completion technologies that best exploit the unique geologic opportunities afforded by our attractive acreage. We intend to drill seven to nine wells and complete eight to ten wells during the third quarter and have increased our full year sales volumes guidance to reflect the enhanced performance of our capital spending program.”

Mr. McKinney concluded, “In the coming weeks, we look forward to completing the Stronghold acquisition and providing additional details regarding our combined outlook. The Transaction strategically enhances our size and scale, complements our existing operations, materially grows our long-term inventory of high rate-of-return projects, and is immediately accretive on all key metrics. The credit facility will provide new benefits to our stockholders, including the ability to pay dividends and buy back stock in the future under certain conditions. The Ring team has extensive experience operating these types of stacked-pay, multi-zone assets and consider this opportunity as ‘going home to our roots’. Through the acquisition, we expect to nearly double production, reserves and projected Free Cash Flow, lower our lifting costs, and optimize our future capital spending program. The result will be an enhanced financial position that accelerates our ability to pay down debt, which will benefit our stockholders and allow Ring to more effectively and profitably grow our business.”

Financial Overview: For the second quarter of 2022, the Company reported net income of $41.9 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, which included a $12.2 million before tax non-cash unrealized commodity derivative gain and $1.9 million in before tax share-based compensation. Excluding the estimated after-tax impact of the adjustments, the Company’s Adjusted Net Income was $31.3 million, or $0.29 per share. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company reported net income of $7.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, which included a $13.5 million before tax non-cash unrealized commodity derivative loss and $1.5 million in before tax share-based compensation. Excluding the estimated after-tax impact of the adjustments, the Company’s Adjusted Net Income was $22.3 million, or $0.22 per share. In the second quarter of 2021, Ring reported a net loss of $ 15.9 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, which included a $22.8 million before tax non-cash unrealized commodity derivative loss, and $0.4 million in before tax share-based compensation. Excluding the estimated after -tax impact of these adjustments, Adjusted Net Income in the second quarter of 2021 was $7.3 million, or $0.07 per share.

Adjusted EBITDA grew by 33% to $47.4 million for the second quarter of 2022 from $35.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, with the increase primarily driven by higher realized pricing and sales volumes. Second quarter of 2021 Adjusted EBITDA was $20.6 million.

Free Cash Flow was $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2022 versus $12.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $5.6 million for the second quarter of 2021. Impacting Free Cash Flow for the second quarter of 2022 was the timing of capital spending for the Company’s 2022 drilling program.

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Cash Flow from Operations, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures, which are described in more detail and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measures, in the tables shown later in this release under “Non-GAAP Information.”

Sales Volumes, Prices and Revenues: Sales volumes for the second quarter of 2022 were 9,341 Boe/d (86% oil), or 850,017 Boe, compared to 8,870 Boe/d (85% oil), or 798,262 Boe, for the first quarter of 2022, and 8,709 Boe/d (89% oil), or 792,551 Boe, in the second quarter of 2021 – a 5% and 7% increase, respectively, on a Boe/d basis. Second quarter 2022 sales volumes were comprised of 729,484 barrels (“Bbls”) of oil and 723,196 thousand cubic feet (“Mcf”) of natural gas.

For the second quarter of 2022, the Company realized an average sales price of $109.24 per barrel of crude oil (before the impact of hedging) and $7.29 per Mcf for natural gas. The combined average realized sales price for the period was $99.95 per Boe, up 17% from $85.41 per Boe for the first quarter of 2022, and 66% higher than $60.26 per Boe in the second quarter of 2021. The average oil price differential the Company experienced from WTI NYMEX futures pricing in the second quarter of 2022 was a positive $0.81 per barrel of crude oil, while the average natural gas price differential from NYMEX futures pricing was a negative $0.23 per Mcf.

Revenues were $85.0 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $68.2 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $47.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. Primarily driving the comparative period increases of 25% and 78%, respectively, were higher realized oil and natural gas pricing as well as increased oil sales volumes.

Lease Operating Expense (“LOE”): LOE, which includes expensed workovers and facilities maintenance, was $8.3 million, or $9.77 per Boe, in the second quarter of 2022 versus $9.0 million, or $11.22 per Boe, in first quarter of 2022 and $7.4 million, or $9.37 per Boe, for the second quarter of 2021. Primarily contributing to the sequential decrease in second quarter 2022 LOE was a lower level of workover expense.

Gathering, Transportation and Processing (“GTP”) Costs: GTP costs, which are associated with natural gas sales, were $0.65 per Boe in the second quarter of 2022 versus $1.62 per Boe in the first quarter and $1.13 per Boe in the second quarter of 2021. Due to a contractual change effective May 1, 2022, the Company no longer maintains ownership and control of the natural gas through processing. As a result, GTP costs moving forward will be reflected as a reduction to the natural gas sales price and not as an expense line item.

Ad Valorem Taxes: Ad valorem taxes were $1.12 per Boe for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $1.19 per Boe in the first quarter of 2022 and $0.89 per Boe for the second quarter of 2021. The year-over-year quarterly increase was primarily due to higher commodity prices.

Production Taxes: Production taxes were $4.89 per Boe in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $4.03 per Boe in the first quarter of 2022 and $2.77 per Boe in first quarter of 2021. Production taxes remained steady at 4.5% to 5.0% of revenue for all three periods.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“DD&A”) and Asset Retirement Obligation Accretion: DD&A was $12.65 per Boe in the second quarter of 2022 versus $12.25 per Boe for the first quarter of 2022 and $11.70 per Boe in the second quarter of 2021. Asset retirement obligation accretion was $0.22 per Boe in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $0.24 per Boe for the first quarter of 2022 and $0.23 per Boe in the second quarter of 2021.

Operating Lease Expense: Operating lease expense was $83,590 for the second and first quarters of 2022, and $84,790 in the second quarter of 2021. Operating lease expenses are primarily associated with the Company’s office leases.

General and Administrative Expenses (“G&A”): G&A, excluding share-based compensation, was $3.9 million, or $4.63 per Boe, for the second quarter of 2022 versus $4.0 million, or $5.01 per Boe, for the first quarter of 2022 and $3.4 million, or $4.30 per Boe, in the second quarter of 2021.

Interest Expense: Interest expense was $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2022 versus $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2021. Interest expense decreased for both comparative periods substantially due to a lower average daily balance of long-term debt.

Derivative (Loss) Gain: In the second quarter of 2022, Ring recorded a net loss of $7.4 million on its commodity derivative contracts, including a realized $19.6 million cash commodity derivative loss and an unrealized $12.2 million non-cash commodity derivative gain. This compared to a net loss of $27.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, including a realized $14.1 million cash commodity derivative loss and an unrealized $13.5 million non-cash commodity derivative loss, and a net loss of $35.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, including a realized $12.5 million cash commodity derivative loss and an unrealized $22.8 million non-cash commodity derivative loss.

The Company does not have any hedges in place on its natural gas production. To date in 2022, the Company added the following crude oil derivative positions (through August 4, 2022):

A full listing of the Company’s current outstanding crude oil derivative positions is included in the tables shown later in this release.

Income Tax: The Company recorded a non-cash income tax provision of $1,472,209 in the second quarter of 2022, compared to a provision of $78,752 in the first quarter of 2022 and $190,644 for the second quarter of 2021.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity: Total liquidity at the end of the second quarter of 2022 was $81.5 million, a 32% increase from December 31, 2021 and up 58% from June 30, 2021. Liquidity at June 30, 2022 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $2.2 million and $79.2 million of availability under Ring’s revolving bank credit facility, which includes a reduction of $0.8 million for letters of credit. On June 30, 2022, the Company had $270.0 million in borrowings outstanding on its revolving credit facility that has a current borrowing base of $350.0 million. Ring paid down $10.0 million of debt during the second quarter of 2022 and is targeting further debt reduction during the remainder of the year depending on market conditions, the timing of capital spending and other considerations. Ring is currently in compliance with all applicable covenants under its revolving credit facility agreement.

In early April 2022, a total of 6.5 million of the Company’s common warrants were exercised at a price of $0.80 per warrant. Accordingly, second quarter results reflect the issuance of 6.5 million shares of common stock and the receipt of $5.2 million of cash. There are currently approximately 23 million common warrants that remain unexercised.

Capital Expenditures: During the second quarter of 2022, capital expenditures on an accrual basis were $41.8 million as the Company drilled nine wells, completed seven wells, and began the completion process on four wells – all in the NWS. Two of the wells completed were 1.0- mile horizontal wells that were drilled in the first quarter with a working interest of 100%. In addition, the Company drilled and completed three 1-mile horizontal wells with a working interest of 100% and two 1.5 -mile horizontal wells with a working interest of approximately 98.7%. Ring also drilled and accelerated the completion process of four 1.0- mile horizontal wells (previously anticipated for the third quarter) that were placed online in early July. Two of the wells have a working interest of 100%, one has a working interest of 87.5%, and the fourth has a working interest of 75%. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company also performed four CTR projects, including three in the NWS and one in the CBP.

2022 Capital Investment, Sales Volumes, and Operating Expense Guidance

For full year 2022, excluding the impact of the pending Stronghold acquisition, Ring reiterates its previous standalone outlook of total capital spending in the range of $ 120 million to $140 million, which includes the estimated cost to drill 25 to 33 horizontal wells and complete 25 to 30 horizontal wells. Ring’s full year capital spending outlook includes targeted well reactivations, workovers, infrastructure upgrades, and continuing its CTR program. Also included in the full year estimate is anticipated spending for leasing, contractual drilling obligations and non -operated drilling, completion and capital workovers. Based on the $130 million mid-point of spending guidance, the Company expects the following estimated allocation of capital investment, including:

● 82% for drilling, completion, and related equipment and facilities;

● 13% for CTRs, recompletions and capital workovers; and

● 5% for land, non-operated capital and other investments.

The Company remains focused on generating free cash flow in 2022, after all expenses, costs and capital expenditures. All 2022 planned capital expenditures will be fully funded by cash on hand and cash from operations, and excess free cash flow is currently targeted for further debt reduction. The combination of anticipated growth in Adjusted EBITDA resulting from higher prices and growth in sales volumes, along with planned further debt reduction, is expected to significantly reduce Ring’s leverage ratio by year-end 2022.

Supported by the success of its targeted development program and continued focus on operational excellence, the Company has increased its full year 2022 sales volumes forecast to 9,300 to 9,700 Boe/d (86% oil), compared with its prior full year 2022 guidance of 9,000 to 9,600 Boe/d. Ring currently expects third quarter 2022 sales volumes to range between 9,500 and 9,900 Boe/d (86% oil).

The guidance in the table below represents the Company's current good faith estimate of the range of likely future results for the full year and third quarter of 2022. Guidance could be affected by the factors discussed below in the "Safe Harbor Statement" section.

	Full Year	Q3
	2022	2022
Sales Volumes:
Total (Boe/d)	9,300 - 9,700	9,500 - 9,900
Oil (Bo/d)	8,000 - 8,400	8,200 - 8,600
Capital Program:
Capital spending(1) (millions)	$120 - $140	$35 - $39
Number of new wells drilled	25 - 33	7 - 9
Number of new wells completed and online	25 - 30	8 - 10
Operating Expenses:
LOE (per Boe)	$10.25 - $11.25	$10.25 - $11.50

(1) In addition to Company-directed drilling and completion activities, the capital spending outlook includes funds for targeted well reactivations, workovers, infrastructure upgrades, and continuing the Company's successful CTR program in its NWS and CBP areas. Also included is anticipated spending for lease costs, contractural drilling obligations and non-operated drilling, completion and capital workovers.

RING ENERGY, INC.

Non-GAAP Information

Certain financial information included in Ring’s financial results are not measures of financial performance recognized by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Free Cash Flow” and “Cash Flow from Operations”. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used to determine the Company’s incentive compensation awards. These disclosures may not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be reported by other companies.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income does not include the estimated after-tax impact of share-based compensation, ceiling test impairment, and unrealized loss (gain) on change in fair value of derivatives. Adjusted Net Income is presented because the timing and amount of these items cannot be reasonably estimated and affect the comparability of operating results from period to period, and current periods to prior periods.

Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Cash Flow from Operations

The Company also presents the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus net interest expense, unrealized loss (gain) on change in fair value of derivatives, ceiling test impairment, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization, asset retirement obligation accretion and share-based compensation. Company management believes this presentation is relevant and useful because it helps investors understand Ring’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare its results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, as Ring calculates it, may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use.

The Company defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA (defined above) less net interest expense (excluding amortization of deferred financing cost), capital expenditures and proceeds from divestiture of oil and natural gas properties. For this purpose, the Company’s definition of capital expenditures includes costs incurred related to oil and natural gas properties (such as drilling and infrastructure costs and the lease maintenance costs) and equipment, furniture and fixtures, but excludes acquisition costs of oil and gas properties from third parties that are not included in the Company’s capital expenditures guidance provided to investors. Company management believes that Free Cash Flow is an important financial performance measure for use in evaluating the performance and efficiency of its current operating activities after the impact of accrued capital expenditures and net interest expense and without being impacted by items such as changes associated with working capital, which can vary substantially from one period to another. There is no commonly accepted definition Free Cash Flow within the industry. Accordingly, Free Cash Flow, as defined and calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to Free Cash Flow or other similarly named non -GAAP measures reported by other companies. While the Company includes net interest expense in the calculation of Free Cash Flow, other mandatory debt service requirements of future payments of principal at maturity (if such debt is not refinanced) are excluded from the calculation of Free Cash Flow. These and other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from Free Cash Flow would reduce cash available for other uses.

The following tables present (i) a reconciliation of the Company’s net income (loss), a GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA and (ii) a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to Free Cash Flow, as both Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are defined by the Company. In addition, a reconciliation of Cash Flow from Operations is presented.

www.ringenergy.com NYSE American: REI Forward - Looking Statements and Cautionary Note Regarding Hydrocarbon Disclosures 2 Forward – Looking Statements This Presentation includes "forward - looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 19 95, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of strictly historical facts included in this Presentation constitute forward - loo king statements and may often, but not always, be identified by the use of such words as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “intends,” “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “project,” “guidance,” “target,” “potential,” “possible,” “probabl y,” and “believes” or the negative variations thereof or comparable terminology. These forward - looking statements include statements regarding the Company's financial position, future revenues, net income, potential evaluations, business strategy and plans and objectives for future operations. The forward - looking statements include statements about the expected benefits to the Company and to its stockholders from the proposed acquisition of certain assets (the “Stronghold Assets”) fro m S tronghold Energy II Operating, LLC (“Stronghold OpCo ”) and Stronghold Energy II Royalties, LP (“Stronghold RoyaltyCo ”, together with Stronghold OpCo , collectively, “Stronghold”); Forward - looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to be mate rially different than any future results expressed or implied in those statements. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to expectations is subject to a nu mbe r of material risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: the Company’s ability to close the acquisition of the Stronghold Assets; the Company’s ability to integrate the Stronghold Assets and achieve the anticipated benefits therefrom; r isk s relating to any unforeseen liability of the Company or the Stronghold Assets; declines in oil, natural gas liquids or natural gas prices; the level of success in exploration, development and production activities; the timing of exploration and de velopment expenditures; inaccuracies of reserve estimates or assumptions underlying them; revisions to reserve estimates as a result of changes in commodity prices or production history; impacts to financial statements as a result of impairment w rit e - downs; risks related to level of indebtedness and periodic redeterminations of the borrowing base under the Company’s credit facility; the ability of the Company to obtain substantial additional debt financing to close the acquisition of the Stronghold Assets; the impacts of hedging on results of operations; the Company’s ability to replace oil and natural gas reserves; any loss of senior management or technical personnel; and the direct and indirect impact on most or all of the foregoing due to the COVID - 19 pandemic. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results are described under “Risk Factors” in our 2021 annual report on Form 10 - K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“S EC”) on March 16, 2022, and in our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10 - Q and current reports on Form 8 - K. Although the Company believes that the assumptions upon which such forward - looking statements are based are reasonable, it can g ive no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be correct. All forward - looking statements in this Presentation are expressly qualified by the cautionary statements and by reference to the underlying assumptions that may prove to be inco rre ct. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward - looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof, except as required by applicable law. The financial and operating estimates contained in this presentation represent our reasonable estimates as of the date of this Presentation. Neither our independent auditors no r a ny other third party has examined, reviewed or compiled the projections and, accordingly, none of the foregoing expresses an opinion or other form of assurance with respect thereto. The assumptions upon which the projections are based ar e d escribed in more detail herein. Some of these assumptions inevitably will not materialize, and unanticipated events may occur that could affect our results. Therefore, our actual results achieved during the periods covered by the estimates w ill vary from the projected results. Prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the estimates included herein. Cautionary Note regarding Hydrocarbon Disclosures The SEC has generally permitted oil and natural gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, wh ich are reserve estimates that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, and certain probable and possible reserv es that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. We use the terms “estimated ultimate recovery,” or “EURs,” “probable,” “possible,” and “non - proven” reserves, reserve “potential” or “upside” or other descriptions of volumes of reserves potentially recoverable through additional drilling or recovery techniques that the SEC’s guidelines prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC. Reference to EURs of natural gas and oil includes amounts that are not yet classified as p rov ed reserves under SEC definitions, but that we believe should ultimately be produced and are based on previous operating experience in a given area and publicly available information relating to the operations of producers who are conducting oper ati ons in these areas. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized by us. Factors affecting the ultimate recove ry of reserves that may be recovered include the scope of our drilling programs, which will be directly affected by capital availability, drilling and production costs, commodity prices, availability of services and equipment, permit expirations, tr ans portation constraints, regulatory approvals and other factors, and actual drilling results, including geological and mechanic al factors affecting recovery rates. Accordingly, actual quantities that may be recovered from our interests will differ from ou r e stimates and could be significantly less than our targeted recovery rate. In addition, our estimates may change significantly as we receive additional data. Supplemental Non - GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation includes financial measures that are not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Un ited States (“GAAP”), such as “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “PV - 10,” “Free Cash Flow,” or “FCF,” and “Cash Flow from Operations.” While management believes that such measures are useful for investors, they should not be used as a re pla cement for financial measures that are in accordance with GAAP. For definitions of such non - GAAP financial measures and their reconciliations to GAAP measures, please see the Appendix.

www.ringenergy.com NYSE American: REI Non - GAAP Disclosure Certain financial information included in Ring’s financial results are not measures of financial performance recognized by ac cou nting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non - GAAP financial measures are “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Free Cash Flow” and “Cash Flow from Operations”. Management uses these non - GAAP financial measu res in its analysis of performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used to determine the Company’s incentive compensation awards. These disclosures may not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accord anc e with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non - GAAP performance measures which may be reported by other companies. Adjusted Net Income does not include the estimated after - tax impact of share - based compensation, ceiling test impairment, and un realized loss (gain) on change in fair value of derivatives, as well an add back of the full valuation against the Company’s deferred tax assets during the fourth quarter of 2020. Adjusted Net Income is presented because the timing and amou nt of these items cannot be reasonably estimated and affect the comparability of operating results from period to period, and current periods to prior periods. The Company also presents the non - GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. The Company defines Adjusted EBITD A as net (loss) income plus net interest expense, unrealized loss on change in fair value of derivatives, ceiling test impairment, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization and accretion, asset retireme nt obligation accretion and share - based compensation. Company management believes this presentation is relevant and useful because it helps investors understand Ring’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare its results with th ose of other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows from ope rating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, as Ring calculates it, may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for dis cre tionary use. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA (defined above) less net interest expense (excluding amortization of de fer red financing cost) and capital expenditures. For this purpose, the Company’s definition of capital expenditures includes costs incurred related to oil and natural gas properties (such as drilling and infrastructure costs and the lease ma int enance costs) and equipment, furniture and fixtures, but excludes acquisition costs of oil and gas properties from third parties that are not included in the Company’s capital expenditures guidance provided to investors. Company management believ es that Free Cash Flow is an important financial performance measure for use in evaluating the performance and efficiency of its current operating activities after the impact of accrued capital expenditures and net interest expense and wit hout being impacted by items such as changes associated with working capital, which can vary substantially from one period to another. There is no commonly accepted definition for Free Cash Flow within the industry. Accordingly, Free Cash Fl ow, as defined and calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to Free Cash Flow or other similarly named non - GAAP measures reported by other companies. While the Company includes net interest expense in the calculation of Free Cash F low, other mandatory debt service requirements of future payments of principal at maturity (if such debt is not refinanced) are excluded from the calculation of Free Cash Flow. These and other non - discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from Free Cash Flow would reduce cash available for other uses. PV - 10 is a measure not prepared in accordance with GAAP that differs from a measure under GAAP known as “standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows” in that PV - 10 is calculated without including future income taxes. Management believes that the presentation of the PV - 10 value of our oil and natural gas properties is relevant and useful to inv estors because it presents the estimated discounted future net cash flows attributable to our estimated proved reserves independent of our income tax attributes, thereby isolating the intrinsic value of the estimated future cash flows a ttr ibutable to our reserves. We believe the use of a pre - tax measure provides greater comparability of assets when evaluating companies because the timing and quantification of future income taxes is dependent on company - specific factors, many of which are difficult to determine. For these reasons, management uses and believes that the industry generally uses the PV - 10 measure in evaluating and comparing acquisition candidates and assessing the potential rate of return o n investments in oil and natural gas properties. PV - 10 does not necessarily represent the fair market value of oil and natural gas properties. PV - 10 is not a measure of financial or operational performance under GAAP, nor should it be consider ed in isolation or as a substitute for the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows as defined under GAAP. The Company also presents the non - GAAP financial measure Cash Flow from Operations. The Company defines Cash Flow from Operation s as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities plus Changes in operating assets and liabilities. The table below provides a reconciliation of PV - 10 to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows as of Decembe r 31, 2021. 30
