GLOSSARY OF OIL AND NATURAL GAS TERMS

Analogous Reservoir: Analogous reservoirs, as used in resource assessments, have similar rock and fluid properties, reservoir conditions (depth, temperature, and pressure) and drive mechanisms, but are typically at a more advanced stage of development than the reservoir of interest and thus may provide concepts to assist in the interpretation of more limited data and estimation of recovery. When used to support proved reserves, analogous reservoir refers to a reservoir that shares all of the following characteristics with the reservoir of interest: (i) the same geological formation (but not necessarily in pressure communication with the reservoir of interest); (ii) the same environment of deposition; (iii) similar geologic structure; and (iv) the same drive mechanism.

Bbl: One stock tank barrel, or 42 U.S. gallons liquid volume, used in reference to oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.

Bbl/d: One Bbl per day.

Bcfe: One billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent.

Boe: One barrel of oil equivalent, calculated by converting natural gas to oil equivalent barrels at a ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of oil.

BOEM: U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management.

BSEE: Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement.

Btu: One British thermal unit, the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a one-pound mass of water by one degree Fahrenheit.

CO₂: Carbon dioxide.

Development Project: A development project is the means by which petroleum resources are brought to the status of economically producible. As examples, the development of a single reservoir or field, an incremental development in a producing field or the integrated development of a group of several fields and associated facilities with a common ownership may constitute a development project.

Dry Hole or Dry Well: A well found to be incapable of producing hydrocarbons in sufficient quantities such that proceeds from the sale of such production would exceed production expenses and taxes.

Economically Producible: The term economically producible, as it relates to a resource, means a resource which generates revenue that exceeds, or is reasonably expected to exceed, the costs of the operation. For this determination, the value of the products that generate revenue are determined at the terminal point of oil and natural gas producing activities.

Exploitation: A development or other project which may target proven or unproven reserves (such as probable or possible reserves), but which generally has a lower risk than that associated with exploration projects.

Field: An area consisting of a single reservoir or multiple reservoirs, all grouped on or related to the same individual geological structural feature and/or stratigraphic condition. The field name refers to the surface area, although it may refer to both the surface and the underground productive formations.

Gross Acres or Gross Wells: The total acres or wells, as the case may be, in which we have a working interest.

Henry Hub: A distribution hub in Louisiana that serves as the delivery location for natural gas futures contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

ICE: Inter-Continental Exchange.

MBbl: One thousand Bbls.

1

MBbls/d: One thousand Bbls per day.

MBoe: One thousand barrels of oil equivalent.

MBoe/d: One thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day.

MMBoe: One million barrels of oil equivalent.

Mcf: One thousand cubic feet of natural gas.

Mcf/d: One Mcf per day.

MMBtu: One million Btu.

MMcf: One million cubic feet of natural gas.

MMcfe: One million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent.

MMcfe/d: One MMcfe per day.

Net Production: Production that is owned by us less royalties and production due to others.

NGLs: The combination of ethane, propane, butane and natural gasolines that, when removed from natural gas, become liquid under various levels of higher pressure and lower temperature.

NYMEX: New York Mercantile Exchange.

NYSE: New York Stock Exchange.

Oil: Oil and condensate.

Operator: The individual or company responsible for the exploration and/or production of an oil or natural gas well or lease.

OPIS: Oil Price Information Service.

Plugging and Abandonment: Refers to the sealing off of fluids in the strata penetrated by a well so that the fluids from one stratum will not escape into another stratum or to the surface. Regulations of all states require plugging of abandoned wells.

Probabilistic Estimate: The method of estimation of reserves or resources is called probabilistic when the full range of values that could reasonably occur for each unknown parameter (from the geoscience and engineering data) is used to generate a full range of possible outcomes and their associated probabilities of occurrence.

Proved Developed Reserves: Proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered from existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.

2

Proved Reserves: Those quantities of oil and natural gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible, from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations, prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced, or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project, within a reasonable time. The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes (i) the area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any, and (ii) adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or natural gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data. In the absence of data on fluid contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known hydrocarbons, as seen in a well penetration, unless geoscience, engineering or performance data and reliable technology establishes a lower contact with reasonable certainty. Where direct observation from well penetrations has defined a highest known oil elevation and the potential exists for an associated natural gas cap, proved oil reserves may be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir only if geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establish the higher contact with reasonable certainty. Reserves which can be produced economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when (i) successful testing by a pilot project in an area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir as a whole, the operation of an installed program in the reservoir, or an Analogous Reservoir or other evidence using reliable technology establishes the reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based, and (ii) the project has been approved for development by all necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities. Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price used is the average price during the twelve-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.

Realized Price: The cash market price less all expected quality, transportation and demand adjustments.

Reliable Technology: Reliable technology is a grouping of one or more technologies (including computational methods) that has been field tested and has been demonstrated to provide reasonably certain results with consistency and repeatability in the formation being evaluated or in an analogous formation.

Reserves: Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be economically producible, as of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. In addition, there must exist, or there must be a reasonable expectation that there will exist, the legal right to produce or a revenue interest in the production, installed means of delivering oil and natural gas or related substances to market and all permits and financing required to implement the project. Reserves should not be assigned to adjacent reservoirs isolated by major, potentially sealing, faults until those reservoirs are penetrated and evaluated as economically producible. Reserves should not be assigned to areas that are clearly separated from a known accumulation by a non-productive reservoir (i.e., absence of reservoir, structurally low reservoir or negative test results). Such areas may contain prospective resources (i.e., potentially recoverable resources from undiscovered accumulations).

Reservoir: A porous and permeable underground formation containing a natural accumulation of producible oil and/or natural gas that is confined by impermeable rock or water barriers and is individual and separate from other reserves.

Resources: Resources are quantities of oil and natural gas estimated to exist in naturally occurring accumulations. A portion of the resources may be estimated to be recoverable and another portion may be considered unrecoverable. Resources include both discovered and undiscovered accumulations.

SEC: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

Working Interest: An interest in an oil and natural gas lease that gives the owner of the interest the right to drill for and produce oil and natural gas on the leased acreage and requires the owner to pay a share of the costs of drilling and production operations.

Workover: Operations on a producing well to restore or increase production.

WTI: West Texas Intermediate.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

General

Amplify Energy Corp. (“Amplify Energy,” “Amplify,” “it” or the “Company”) is a publicly traded Delaware corporation whose common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “AMPY.”

The Company operates in one reportable segment that is engaged in the acquisition, development, exploitation and production of oil and natural gas properties. The Company’s management evaluates performance based on one reportable business segment as there are not different economic environments within the operation of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties. The Company’s assets consist primarily of producing oil and natural gas properties located in Oklahoma, the Rockies (“Bairoil”), federal waters offshore Southern California (“Beta”), East Texas/North Louisiana and the Eagle Ford (non-op). Most of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties are located in large, mature oil and natural gas reservoirs. The Company’s properties consist primarily of operated and non-operated working interests in producing and undeveloped leasehold acreage and working interests in identified producing wells.

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for fair presentation. Material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The results reported in these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. Furthermore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements included in its 2023 Form 10-K.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, oil and natural gas reserves; fair value estimates; revenue recognition; and contingencies and insurance accounting.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s annual financial statements included in its 2023 Form 10-K.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Note 3. Revenue

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue is recognized when the following five steps are completed: (1) identify the contract with the customer, (2) identify the performance obligation (promise) in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when the reporting organization satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company has determined that its contracts for the sale of crude oil, unprocessed natural gas, residue gas and NGLs contain monthly performance obligations to deliver product at locations specified in the contract. Control is transferred at the delivery location, at which point the performance obligation has been satisfied and revenue is recognized. Fees included in the contract that are incurred prior to control transfer are classified as gathering, processing and transportation, and fees incurred after control transfers are included as a reduction to the transaction price. The transaction price at which revenue is recognized consists entirely of variable consideration based on quoted market prices less various fees and the quantity of volumes delivered.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company has identified three material revenue streams in its business: oil, natural gas and NGLs. The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by revenue stream.

	For the Three Months Ended				For the Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
	(In thousands)
Revenues
Oil	$	57,789	$	50,750	$	115,210	$	89,566
NGLs		6,565		6,411		14,091		14,196
Natural gas		7,992		10,232		18,367		29,915
Oil and natural gas sales	$	72,346	$	67,393	$	147,668	$	133,677

Contract Balances

Under the Company’s sales contracts, the Company invoices customers once its performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, the Company’s contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities. Accounts receivable attributable to the Company’s revenue contracts with customers were $30.2 million at June 30, 2024 and $31.1 million at December 31, 2023.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a specified measurement date. Fair value estimates are based on either (i) actual market data or (ii) assumptions that other market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including estimates of risk. A three-tier hierarchy has been established that classifies fair value amounts recognized or disclosed in the financial statements. The hierarchy considers fair value amounts based on observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) to be more reliable and predictable than those based primarily on unobservable inputs (Level 3). All the derivative instruments reflected on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were considered Level 2.

AMPLIFY ENERGY CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The carrying values of accounts receivables, accounts payables (including accrued liabilities), restricted investments and amounts outstanding under long-term debt agreements with variable rates included in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximated fair value at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair value estimates are based upon observable market data and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These assets and liabilities are not presented in the following tables.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The fair market values of the derivative financial instruments reflected on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were based on estimated forward commodity prices. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The following tables present the gross derivative assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for each of the fair value hierarchy levels:

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, as reflected on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values:

● The fair value of asset retirement obligations (“AROs”) is based on discounted cash flow projections using numerous estimates, assumptions and judgments regarding factors such as the existence of a legal obligation for an ARO; amounts and timing of settlements; the credit-adjusted risk-free rate; and inflation rates. The initial fair value estimates are based on unobservable market data and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 6 for a summary of changes in AROs.

● Proved oil and natural gas properties are reviewed for impairment when events and circumstances indicate a possible decline in the recoverability of the carrying value of such properties. The Company uses an income approach based on the discounted cash flow method, whereby the present value of expected future net cash flows is discounted by applying an appropriate discount rate, for purposes of placing a fair value on the assets. The future cash flows are based on management’s estimates for the future. The unobservable inputs used to determine fair value include, but are not limited to, estimates of proved reserves, estimates of probable reserves, future commodity prices, the timing of future production and capital expenditures and a discount rate commensurate with the risk reflective of the lives remaining for the respective oil and natural gas properties (some of which are Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy).

● No impairment expense was recorded on proved oil and natural gas properties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Note 5. Risk Management and Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are utilized to manage exposure to commodity price and interest rate fluctuations and to achieve a more predictable cash flow in connection with natural gas and oil sales and borrowing related activities. These instruments limit exposure to declines in prices but also limit the benefits that would be realized if prices increase.

Certain inherent business risks are associated with commodity derivative contracts, including market risk and credit risk. Market risk is the risk that the price of natural gas or oil will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by the counterparty to a contract. It is the Company’s policy to enter into derivative contracts only with creditworthy counterparties, which are generally financial institutions, deemed by management as competent and competitive market makers. Some of the lenders, or certain of their affiliates, under the Company’s current credit agreements are counterparties to its derivative contracts. While collateral is generally not required to be posted by counterparties, credit risk associated with derivative instruments is minimized by limiting exposure to any single counterparty and entering into derivative instruments only with creditworthy counterparties that are generally large financial institutions. Additionally, master netting agreements are used to mitigate risk of loss due to default with counterparties on derivative instruments. The Company has also entered into International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreements (“ISDA Agreements”) with each of its counterparties. The terms of the ISDA Agreements provide the Company and each of its counterparties with rights of set-off upon the occurrence of defined acts of default by either the Company or its counterparty to a derivative, whereby the party not in default may set-off all liabilities owed to the defaulting party against all net derivative asset receivables from the defaulting party. As a result, had certain counterparties failed completely to perform according to the terms of the existing contracts, the Company would have the right to offset $3.2 million against amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2024. See Note 7 for additional information regarding the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.

Commodity Derivatives

The Company may use a combination of commodity derivatives (e.g., floating-for-fixed swaps, put options and costless collars) to manage exposure to commodity price volatility. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value.

There was no cash collateral received or pledged associated with the Company’s derivative instruments since most of its counterparties, or certain of its affiliates, to its derivative contracts are lenders under its Revolving Credit Facility.

(1) The carrying amount of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility approximates fair value because the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On July 31, 2023, OLLC and Amplify Acquisitionco LLC (“Acquisitionco”), as the direct parent of OLLC and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, providing for a senior secured reserve-based revolving credit facility. The Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and all of its material subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of its assets. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on July 31, 2027, and is a replacement in full of the prior Revolving Credit Facility by and among OLLC, Acquisitionco, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as the administrative agent (as amended, the “Prior Revolving Credit Facility”).

The aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2024, was $118.0 million. The borrowing base under the facility is $150.0 million with elected commitments of $135.0 million, and, consistent with the Prior Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Credit Facility borrowing base will be subject to redetermination on at least a semi-annual basis, primarily based on a reserve engineering report.

Certain key terms and conditions under the Revolving Credit Facility include (but are not limited to):

● A maturity date of July 31, 2027;

● The loans shall 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 unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will accrue a commitment fee of 0.50%, payable quarterly in arrears;

● Certain financial covenants, including the maintenance of (i) a net debt leverage ratio not to exceed 3.00 to 1.00, determined as of the last day of each fiscal quarter for the four fiscal-quarter period then ending and (ii) a current ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00, determined as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, in each case commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2023;

● Certain events of default, including, without limitation: non-payment; breaches of representations and warranties; non-compliance with covenants or other agreements; cross-default to material indebtedness; judgments; change of control; and voluntary and involuntary bankruptcy; and

● Initial minimum hedging requirements covering 75% of the reasonably projected monthly production of hydrocarbons from proved developed producing reserves for the 24-month period following the effective date of the Revolving Credit Facility (the “First Period”) and (ii) 50% for the 12-month period immediately following the First Period.

Note 10. Long-Term Incentive Plans

On May 15, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved the Amplify Energy Corp. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 EIP”), which had previously been approved by the board of directors of the Company. No further awards will be granted under the prior Legacy Equity Incentive Plan (“EIP,” and together with the 2024 EIP, the “EIP Plans”).

The 2024 EIP provides for awards that can be granted in the form of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance awards, stock awards and other incentive awards. To the extent that an award, other than stock options or stock appreciation rights, under the 2024 EIP has expired or been forfeited or canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the unexercised award would then be available again for future grants under the 2024 EIP. The 2024 EIP is administered by the board of directors of the Company.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted Stock Units with Service Vesting Condition

Restricted stock units with service vesting conditions (“TSUs”) are accounted for as either equity-classified awards or liability-classified awards. The grant-date fair value is recognized as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. The Company considered its intent and ability to settle awards in cash or shares of stock in determining whether to classify the awards as equity or liability awards. Compensation costs for equity-classified awards are recorded as general and administrative expense. The fair value of liability-classified awards is determined on a quarterly basis beginning at the grant date until final vesting. Changes in the fair value of liability-classified awards are recorded to general administrative expense and are remeasured at fair value each reporting period.

In February 2024, the Company granted contingent cash-settlement awards in the form of TSUs (the “2024 TSUs”). In May 2024, the Company received shareholder approval of the 2024 EIP, which removed the contingent consideration around the 2024 TSUs. As of June 30, 2024, the 2024 TSUs were reclassified as equity awards. The compensation cost related to these awards is determined by the fair value of the award on the modification date. The 2024 TSUs will vest in substantially equal installments over a three-year period.

AMPLIFY ENERGY CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unrecognized cost associated with the TSUs was $7.0 million at June 30, 2024. The Company expects to recognize the unrecognized compensation cost for these awards over a weighted average period of approximately 2.1 years.

The following table summarizes information regarding the TSUs activity for the period presented:

`		Weighted-
		Average Grant-
	Number of	Date Fair Value

(1) Determined by dividing the aggregate grant-date fair value of awards by the number of awards issued.

(2) The aggregate grant-date fair value of TSUs issued for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $4.5 million based on a grant-date market price ranging from $6.26 per share to $6.30 per share.

Restricted Stock Units with Market and Service Vesting Conditions

Restricted stock units with market and service vesting conditions (“PSUs”) are accounted for as either equity-classified or liability-classified awards. The grant-date fair value is recognized as compensation cost on a graded-vesting basis. The fair value of the awards is estimated on their grant dates using a Monte Carlo simulation. The Company recognizes compensation cost over the requisite service or performance period. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Vesting of PSUs can range from 0% to 200% of the target awards granted based on the Company’s relative total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of the Company’s performance peer group over the applicable performance period.

The 2022 and 2023 PSU awards are accounted for as equity-classified awards and were issued with a three-year vesting period beginning on the grant date and ending on the third anniversary of the grant date. The three-year performance period for the 2022 awards is January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. The three-year performance period for the 2023 awards is January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025.

In February 2024, the Company granted contingent cash-settlement awards in the form of PSUs (the “2024 PSUs”). In May 2024, the Company received shareholder approval of the 2024 EIP, which removed the contingent consideration around the 2024 PSUs. As of June 30, 2024, the 2024 PSUs are reclassified as equity awards with a three-year vesting period. The compensation cost related to these awards is determined by the fair value of the award on the modification date. The three-year performance period for the 2024 PSUs is January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026.

Compensation costs related to PSU awards are recorded as general and administrative expense. The unrecognized cost associated with PSU awards was $4.2 million at June 30, 2024. The Company expects to recognize the unrecognized compensation cost for PSU awards over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.1 years.

The below table reflects the ranges for the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo model for the 2024 PSUs:

	Date of Grant: February 2024		Modification Date: May 2024
Expected volatility	75.8	%	63.2	%
Dividend yield	0.00	%	0.00	%

Note 11. Leases

The Company has leases for office space, warehouse space and equipment in its corporate office and operating regions as well as vehicles, compressors and surface rentals related to its business operations. In addition, the Company has right-of-way leases to operate the San Pedro Bay Pipeline. Most of the Company’s leases, other than its corporate office lease, have an initial term and may be extended on a month-to-month basis after expiration of the initial term. Most of the Company’s leases can be terminated with 30-day prior written notice. The majority of its month-to-month leases are not included as a lease liability in its balance sheet because continuation of the lease is not reasonably certain. Additionally, the Company elected the short-term practical expedient to exclude leases with a term of twelve months or less. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, all of the Company’s leases qualified as operating leases, and it did not have any existing or new leases qualifying as financing leases or variable leases.

The Company’s corporate office lease does not provide an implicit rate. To determine the present value of the lease payments, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the inception date. To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company applies a portfolio approach based on the applicable lease terms and the current economic environment. The Company uses a reasonable market interest rate for its office equipment and vehicle leases.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized approximately $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of costs relating to the operating leases in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Environmental

As part of our normal business activities, we may be named as defendants in litigation and legal proceedings, including those arising from regulatory and environmental matters.

Although the Company is insured against various risks to the extent it believes it is prudent, there is no assurance that the nature and amount of such insurance will be adequate, in every case, to indemnify it against liabilities arising from future legal proceedings.

Environmental costs for remediation are accrued based on estimates of known remediation requirements. Such accruals are based on management’s best estimate of the ultimate cost to remediate a site and are adjusted as further information and circumstances develop. Those estimates may change substantially depending on information about the nature and extent of contamination, appropriate remediation technologies and regulatory approvals. Expenditures to mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination are capitalized. Ongoing environmental compliance costs are charged to expense as incurred. In accruing for environmental remediation liabilities, costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation are not discounted to their present value, unless the amount and timing of the expenditures are fixed or reliably determinable. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no environmental reserves recorded in its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Revenue Payables in Suspense

During 2024, the Company determined that it had improperly classified certain non-operated revenue within revenues payable in suspense from 2015 through 2024 and had also retained revenue suspense on assets previously sold in 2018 for which no obligation existed subsequent to the date of close. As a result, the Company recorded an out-of-period adjustment of $2.8 million in 2024 to release such amounts as previously accrued within revenue payables in suspense, of which $2.2 million and $0.6 million included in oil and natural gas revenue and other income, respectively, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Management considered qualitative and quantitative factors and concluded the out-of-period adjustment is immaterial to 2024 and each of the applicable periods.

Beta Pipeline Incident

Please refer to “Note 16. Beta Pipeline Incident” for details.

Sinking Fund Trust Agreement

Beta Operating Company, LLC (“Beta LLC”), a wholly owned subsidiary, assumed an obligation with a third party to make payments into a sinking fund in connection with the Company’s properties in federal waters offshore Southern California, the purpose of which is to provide funds adequate to decommission the portion of the San Pedro Bay Pipeline that lies within state waters and the surface facilities. Interest earned in the account stays in the account. The obligation to fund ceases when the aggregate value of the account reaches $4.3 million. As of June 30, 2024, the account balance included in restricted investments was approximately $4.5 million.

Supplemental Bond for Decommissioning Liabilities Trust Agreement

Beta LLC has a decommissioning obligation with BOEM in connection with the Company’s properties in federal waters offshore Southern California. The Company supports its decommissioning obligation with $161.3 million of A-rated surety bonds.

In December 2021, the Company entered into two escrow funding agreements with its surety providers to fund interest-bearing escrow accounts on a quarterly basis to reimburse and indemnify the surety providers for any claims arising under the surety bonds related to the decommissioning of our Beta LLC properties. In March 2024, the Company amended one of the escrow funding agreements to decrease the amount funded from $14.8 million per year to $8.0 million per year. There were no changes made to the second escrow agreement. The obligation for these agreements ceases when the total aggregate value of the escrow accounts reaches $172.6 million.

The below table outlines the updated funding commitment for these agreements at June 30, 2024 (in thousands):

	Payment Due by Period
Funding commitment	Total		Remaining 2024		2025		2026		2027		2028		Thereafter
Federal escrow fund payments	$	142,728	$	4,000	$	8,000	$	8,000	$	8,000	$	8,000	$	106,728

Note 16. Beta Pipeline Incident

On October 2, 2021, contractors operating under the direction of Beta LLC observed an oil sheen on the water approximately four miles off the coast of Newport Beach, California. Beta LLC platform personnel were notified and promptly initiated the Company’s Oil Spill Response Plan. On October 3, 2021, a Unified Command, consisting of the Company, the U.S. Coast Guard and California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Office of Spill Prevention and Response, was established to respond to the Incident. Reports from the Unified Command’s contracted commercial divers and Remotely Operated Vehicle footage indicated that a 4,000-foot section of the Company’s pipeline had been displaced and that the pipeline had a 13-inch split, running parallel to the pipe, releasing approximately 588 barrels of oil.

All operations were suspended and the pipeline was shut-in pending the Company’s receipt of the required regulatory approvals to restart operations, including but not limited to, approval of a written restart plan from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (“PHMSA”), Office of Pipeline Safety. On April 10, 2023, the Company announced that it received the required approvals from federal regulatory agencies to restart operations at the Beta Field. Since such date, the pipeline has been operated in accordance with the restart procedures that were reviewed and approved by PHMSA.

On December 15, 2021, a federal grand jury in the Central District of California returned a federal criminal indictment against the Company, Beta LLC, and San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company in connection with the Incident. As previously disclosed, state authorities were conducting parallel criminal investigations. The Company reached court-approved agreements to resolve all criminal matters stemming from the Incident. As part of the resolution with the United States, the Company agreed to plead guilty to one count of misdemeanor negligent discharge of oil in violation of the Clean Water Act, and, agreed to pay a fine of approximately $7.1 million in installments over a period of three years, serve a term of four years’ probation and reimburse governmental agencies approximately $5.8 million for their response to this event. Additionally, as part of the resolution with the state of California, the Company agreed to enter a plea of No Contest to six misdemeanor charges, and, as a result, paid a fine in the amount of $4.9 million to be distributed among the state of California, including the State’s Fish and Game Preservation Fund, and Orange County, agreed to serve a one-year term of probation and agreed to certain compliance enhancements to its operations.

The Company is currently subject to a number of ongoing investigations related to the Incident by certain federal and state agencies and may be subject to new investigations and proceedings in the future, the results of which may have a material impact on the Company’s business and results of operations and could put pressure on its liquidity position going forward. With respect to PHMSA’s investigation, on April 6, 2023, PHMSA provided the Company notice of PHMSA’s positions regarding “probable violations of the Pipeline Safety Regulations” in connection with the Incident. The Company has responded to the notice and is conferring with PHMSA regarding a resolution. Amplify continues to comply with all regulatory requirements and investigations. The outcomes of these investigations and the nature of any remedies pursued will depend on the discretion of the relevant authorities and may result in regulatory or other enforcement actions, as well as civil liability.

The Company, Beta LLC, and San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company were named as defendants in a consolidated putative class action in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, asserting claims against the Company, Beta LLC, San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company, among others.

AMPLIFY ENERGY CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On August 25, 2022, the Company reached an agreement in principle with plaintiffs in the class action to resolve all civil claims against it and its subsidiaries. The settlement of $50.0 million, which also includes certain injunctive relief, has been and will continue to be funded under the Company’s insurance policies. The Court granted final approval of the settlement on April 24, 2023. Separately, on March 1, 2023, the Company announced that the vessels that struck and damaged the pipeline and their respective owners and operators agreed to pay the Company $96.5 million in a settlement. This settlement resolved Amplify’s affirmative claims related to the Incident, and as such, Amplify dismissed its legal claims against those parties.

Under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, 33 U.S.C. § 2701 et seq. (“OPA 90”), the Company’s pipeline was designated by the U.S. Coast Guard as the source of the oil discharge and therefore the Company is financially responsible for remediation and for certain costs and economic damages as provided for in OPA 90, as well as certain natural resource damages associated with the spill and certain costs determined by federal and state trustees engaged in a joint assessment of such natural resource damages. The Company is currently processing covered claims under OPA 90 as expeditiously as possible. In addition, the Natural Resource Damage Assessment remains ongoing and therefore the extent, timing and cost related to such assessment are difficult to project. While the Company anticipates insurance will reimburse it for expenses related to the Natural Resource Damage Assessment, any potentially uncovered expenses may be material and could impact the Company’s business and results of operations and could put pressure on its liquidity position going forward.

Based on presently enacted laws and regulations and currently available facts, the Company estimates that the total costs it has incurred or will incur with respect to the Incident to be between approximately $190.0 million to $210.0 million. The range of total costs is based on the Company’s assumptions regarding (i) settlement of costs associated with certain vendors for response and remediation expenses, (ii) resolution of certain third-party claims, excluding claims with respect to losses, which are not probable or reasonably estimable, and (iii) future claims and lawsuits. While the Company believes it has accurately reflected all probable and reasonably estimable costs incurred in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations, these estimates are subject to uncertainties associated with the underlying assumptions. Accordingly, as the Company’s assumptions and estimates may change in future periods based on future events, the Company can provide no assurance that total costs will not materially change in future periods.

The Company’s estimates do not include (i) the nature, extent and cost of future legal services that will be required in connection with all lawsuits, claims and other matters requiring legal or expert advice associated with the Incident, (ii) any lost revenue associated with the suspension of operations at Beta, (iii) any liabilities or costs, including regulatory costs, that are not reasonably estimable at this time or that relate to contingencies where the Company currently regards the likelihood of loss as being only reasonably possible or remote and (iv) the costs associated with the permanent repair of the pipeline and the restart of operations at Beta.

In accordance with customary insurance practice, the Company maintains insurance policies, including loss of production insurance, against many potential losses or liabilities arising from its operations, which, in addition to the settlement amount disclosed, have covered a material portion of aggregate costs associated with the Incident. However, the Company can provide no assurance that its coverage will continue to adequately protect it against liability from all potential consequences, damages and losses related to the Incident and such view and understanding is preliminary and subject to change.

On June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company’s insurance receivables were $1.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. Excluding the costs associated with the resolution of the federal and state matters discussed above, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred response and remediation expenses and legal fees of $1.2 million, which primarily relates to certain legal costs that are not expected to be recovered under an insurance policy and are classified as “Pipeline Incident Loss” on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For more information, please see our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 7, 2024.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes in “Item 1. Financial Statements” contained herein and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2023 Form 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs and expected performance. The forward-looking statements are dependent upon events, risks and uncertainties that may be outside our control. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the front of this report.

Overview

We operate in one reportable segment engaged in the acquisition, development, exploitation and production of oil and natural gas properties. Our management evaluates performance based on the reportable business segment as the economic environments are not different within the operation of our oil and natural gas properties. Our business activities are conducted through OLLC, our wholly owned subsidiary, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Our assets consist primarily of producing oil and natural gas properties located in Oklahoma, the Rockies (“Bairoil”), federal waters offshore Southern California (“Beta”), East Texas/North Louisiana and the Eagle Ford (non-op). Most of our oil and natural gas properties are located in large, mature oil and natural gas reservoirs.

Industry Trends

We continue to monitor the impact of the actions of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other large producing nations; the Russia-Ukraine conflict; conflicts in the Middle East; global inventories of oil and natural gas and the uncertainty associated with recovering oil demand; inflation and future monetary policy; and governmental policies aimed at transitioning towards lower carbon energy. Due to these factors, among others, we expect prices for some or all commodities to remain volatile. Thus, we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the extent to which these factors may impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Business Environment and Operational Focus

We use a variety of financial and operational metrics to assess the performance of our oil and natural gas operations, including: (i) production volumes; (ii) realized prices on the sale of our production; (iii) cash settlements on our commodity derivatives; (iv) lease operating expense; (v) gathering, processing and transportation; (vi) general and administrative expense; and (vii) Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below).

Sources of Revenues

Our revenues are derived from the sale of natural gas and oil production, as well as the sale of NGLs that are extracted from natural gas during processing. Production revenues are derived entirely from the continental United States. Natural gas, NGL and oil prices are inherently volatile and are influenced by many factors outside our control. In order to reduce the impact of fluctuations in natural gas and oil prices on revenues, we intend to periodically enter into derivative contracts that fix the future prices received. At the end of each period, the fair value of these commodity derivative instruments is estimated and because hedge accounting is not elected, the changes in the fair value of unsettled commodity derivative instruments are recognized in earnings at the end of each accounting period.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies and estimates, including a discussion regarding the estimation uncertainty and the impact that our critical accounting estimates have had, or are reasonably likely to have, on our financial condition or results of operations, are described in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2023 Form 10-K. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, oil and natural gas reserves; fair value estimates; revenue recognition; and contingencies and insurance accounting. These estimates, in our opinion, are subjective in nature, require the use of professional judgment and involve complex analysis.

29

When used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, such estimates are based on our current knowledge and understanding of the underlying facts and circumstances and may be revised as a result of actions we take in the future. Changes in these estimates will occur as a result of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events. Subsequent changes in these estimates may have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Revenue Payables in Suspense

In the normal course of business, we undertake efforts to research and resolve the disputes, legal reasons or uncertainties causing revenues of owners of mineral interests in our leases to go into suspense. As resolutions occur, obligations related to revenue payables in suspense are released. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we released $7.0 million and $8.4 million, respectively, of net revenues in suspense as a result of these efforts. The following table presents the impact of releases of revenue payables in suspense to our statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024:

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

We reported a net income of $7.1 million compared to net income of $9.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $72.3 million and $67.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Average net production volumes were approximately 20.3 MBoe/d and 21.2 MBoe/d for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in production volumes was driven by natural decline in Eagle Ford and the impact of adverse weather events during May and June 2024. The average realized sales prices were $39.25 per Boe and $34.97 per Boe for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in average realized sales prices was primarily due to higher commodity prices and the release of revenue suspense of $2.6 million partially offset by lower production volumes.

Other revenues were $7.2 million and $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, other revenues consisted of iodine sales, rental income with respect to our wholly owned subsidiary, Magnify Energy Services (“Magnify”), and interest income earned on our sinking fund escrow accounts. Additionally, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded a revenue suspense release of $4.8 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, other revenues were primarily related to our receipt of LOPI insurance proceeds of $4.5 million. We have not received LOPI insurance proceeds since payments under the LOPI policy terminated on March 31, 2023.

Lease operating expenses were $36.3 million and $34.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. On a per Boe basis, lease operating expenses were $19.70 and $18.10 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in lease operating expense is primarily from Beta being offline and fully returning to production at the end of April 2023.

Gathering, processing and transportation expenses were $4.9 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. On a per Boe basis, gathering, processing and transportation expenses were $2.66 and $2.67 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in gathering processing and transportation expense was primarily due to lower gas volumes and the expiration of minimum volume commitments for our Oklahoma properties.

Taxes other than income were $4.6 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. On a per Boe basis, taxes other than income were $2.51 and $2.70 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily related to a reduction in our ad valorem taxes for 2024 based on lower natural gas prices.

DD&A expenses were $7.8 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in DD&A expense was primarily driven by operations restarting at Beta.

General and administrative expenses were $8.4 million and $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in general and administrative expenses was primarily related to (i) an increase of $0.4 million in stock compensation expense and (ii) an increase of $0.6 million in legal expense partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in salaries and other payroll benefits.

Net loss on commodity derivative instruments of $1.2 million were recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2024, consisting of $4.9 million decrease in the fair value of open positions, partially offset by $3.7 million of cash settlements received on expired positions. Net gain on commodity derivative instruments of $3.8 million was recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2023, consisting of $1.5 million of cash settlements received on expired positions and an increase of $2.3 million in the fair value of open position.

Pipeline incident loss was $0.5 million and $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The costs reflect certain expenses not expected to be recovered under an insurance policy. See Note 16 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report for additional information.

Interest expense, net was $3.6 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in interest expense was primarily driven by lower outstanding borrowings.

32

Average outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility were $121.8 million and $123.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Litigation settlement was not recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Current income tax benefit (expense) was ($0.6) million and $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. See additional information discussed in Note 15 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report.

Deferred income tax benefit (expense) was ($2.1) million and less than ($0.1) million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Starting in the first quarter of 2023, we achieved three years of cumulative income which resulted in the release of the valuation allowance. See additional information discussed in Note 15 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

We reported a net loss of $2.3 million compared to net income of $362.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $147.7 million and $133.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Average net production volumes were approximately 20.2 MBoe/d and 20.3 MBoe/d for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The average realized sales prices were $40.07 per Boe and $36.40 per Boe for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in realized sales prices is primarily due to higher commodity prices, Beta returning to production after being offline for the first quarter of 2023 and the release of revenue suspense of $4.0 million.

Other revenues were $8.1 million and $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, other revenues consisted of iodine sales, Magnify rental income, and interest income earned on our sinking fund escrow accounts. Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded a revenue suspense release of $4.8 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, other revenues were primarily related to our receipt of LOPI insurance proceeds of $17.9 million. We have not received LOPI insurance proceeds since payments under the LOPI policy terminated on March 31, 2023.

Lease operating expenses were $74.6 million and $67.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. On a per Boe basis, lease operating expenses were $20.24 and $18.48 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in lease operating expense was primarily related to operating costs associated with Beta returning to production after being offline for the first quarter of 2023.

Gathering, processing and transportation expenses were $9.7 million and $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. On a per Boe basis, gathering, processing and transportation expenses were $2.62 and $2.93 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in gathering, processing and transportation expense was primarily due to lower gas volumes, lower commodity prices and the expiration of minimum volume commitments for our Oklahoma properties.

Taxes other than income were $9.5 million and $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. On a per Boe basis, taxes other than income were $2.59 and $2.86 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily related to a reduction in ad valorem taxes for 2024 based on lower natural gas prices.

DD&A expenses were $16.1 million and $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in DD&A expense was primarily driven by operations restarting at Beta.

General and administrative expenses were $18.2 million and $16.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in general and administrative expenses was primarily related to (i) an increase of $1.0 million in stock compensation expense, (ii) an increase of $0.2 million in severance payments, (iii) and an increase of $0.6 million in office lease expense related to the early termination of our Oklahoma office lease.

33

Net loss on commodity derivative instruments of $17.8 million were recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2024, consisting of $25.8 million decrease in the fair value of open positions, partially offset by $8.0 million of cash settlements received on expired positions. Net gain on commodity derivative instruments of $19.0 million was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2023, consisting of a $20.1 million increase in the fair value of open positions, partially offset by $1.2 million of cash settlements paid on expired positions.

Pipeline incident loss was $1.2 million and $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The costs reflect certain expenses not expected to be recovered under an insurance policy. See Note 16 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report for additional information.

Interest expense, net was $7.2 million and $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in interest expense was primarily driven by lower outstanding borrowings and amortization and write-off of deferred issuance costs.

Average outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility were $118.5 million and $157.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Litigation settlement was $84.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, related to the settlement with the shipping companies and the containerships whose anchors struck the Company’s pipeline. See additional information discussed in Note 16 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report. No litigation settlement was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Current income tax benefit (expense) was ($2.0) million and ($5.7) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. See additional information discussed in Note 15 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report.

Deferred income tax benefit (expense) was $2.6 million and $259.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Starting in the first quarter of 2023, we achieved six years of cumulative income which resulted in the release of the valuation allowance. See additional information discussed in Note 15 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report.

Adjusted EBITDA

We include in this report the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA and provide our reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and net cash flows from operating activities, our most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss):

Plus:

● Interest expense;

● Income tax expense;

● DD&A;

● Impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets (including oil and natural gas properties);

● Accretion of AROs;

● Loss on commodity derivative instruments;

● Cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments;

34

● Amortization of gain associated with terminated commodity derivatives;

● Losses on sale of assets;

● Share-based compensation expenses;

● Exploration costs;

● Acquisition and divestiture related expenses;

● Reorganization items, net;

● Severance payments; and

● Other non-routine items that we deem appropriate.

Less:

● Interest income;

● Income tax benefit;

● Gain 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 that we deem appropriate.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a widely followed measure of operating performance and may also be used by investors to measure our ability to meet debt service requirements.

In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate actual cash flow available to develop existing reserves or acquire additional oil and natural gas properties.

The following tables present our reconciliation of the Company’s net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities to Adjusted EBITDA, our most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, for each of the periods indicated.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview. Our ability to finance our operations, including funding capital expenditures and acquisitions, to meet our indebtedness obligations, to refinance our indebtedness or to meet our collateral requirements will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have historically been cash flows generated by operating activities and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. As we pursue reserve and production growth, we plan to monitor which capital resources, including equity and debt financings, are available to us to meet our future financial obligations, planned capital expenditure activities and liquidity requirements. Based on our current oil and natural gas price expectations, we believe our cash flows provided by operating activities and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility will provide us with the financial flexibility necessary to meet our cash requirements, including normal operating needs, and to pursue our currently planned 2024 development activities. However, future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, including the level of our oil and natural gas production and the prices we receive for our oil and natural gas production, and significant additional capital expenditures will be required to more fully develop our properties. We cannot assure you that operations and other needed capital will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. For the remainder of 2024, we expect our primary funding sources to be from internally generated cash flow but retain the flexibility to utilize borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and/or to access the debt and equity capital markets.

Impact of the Beta Pipeline Incident. There are remaining uncertainties surrounding the full impact that the Incident will have on our financial condition and cash flow generation going forward. We have incurred and will continue to incur certain costs as a result of the Incident. However, in addition to the settlement amount disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that we received from the vessels that struck and damaged the Pipeline and their respective owners and operators, we carry customary insurance policies, which have covered a material portion of aggregate costs, including loss of production income insurance to offset loss of revenue resulting from suspended operations. The loss of production income insurance related to the Incident expired on March 31, 2023. We restarted operations at Beta in April 2023. We can provide no assurance that our coverage will adequately protect us against liability from all potential consequences, damages and losses related to the Incident.

Capital Markets. We do not currently anticipate any near-term capital markets activity, but we will continue to evaluate the availability of public debt and equity for funding potential future growth projects and acquisition activity.

Hedging. Commodity hedging has been and remains an important part of our strategy to reduce cash flow volatility. Our hedging activities are intended to support oil, NGL and natural gas prices at targeted levels and to manage our exposure to commodity price fluctuations. We intend to enter into commodity derivative contracts at times and on terms desired to maintain a portfolio of commodity derivative contracts covering at least 50% - 75% of our estimated production from total proved developed producing reserves over a one-to-three-year period at any given point of time. We may, however, from time to time, hedge more or less than this approximate amount. Additionally, we may take advantage of opportunities to modify our commodity derivative portfolio to change the percentage of our hedged production volumes when circumstances suggest that it is prudent to do so. The current market conditions may also impact our ability to enter into future commodity derivative contracts.

We evaluate counterparty risks related to our commodity derivative contracts and trade credit. Should any of these financial counterparties not perform, we may not realize the benefit of some of our hedges under lower commodity prices.

Capital Expenditures. Total capital expenditures were approximately $37.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which were primarily related to the development program at Beta, capital workovers and facilities upgrade projects at Beta and in Oklahoma and non-operated drilling and completion activities in the Eagle Ford.

Working Capital. Working capital is the amount by which current assets exceed current liabilities. Our working capital requirements are primarily driven by changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable, as well as the classification of our debt outstanding. These changes are impacted by changes in the prices of commodities that we buy and sell. In general, our working capital requirements increase in periods of rising commodity prices and decrease in periods of declining commodity prices. However, our working capital needs do not necessarily change at the same rate as commodity prices because both accounts receivable and accounts payable are impacted by the same commodity prices. In addition, the timing of payments received by our customers or paid to our suppliers can also cause fluctuations in working capital because we settle with most of our larger customers on a monthly basis and often near the end of the month. We expect that our future working capital requirements will be impacted by these same factors.

37

As of June 30, 2024, we had a working capital deficit (excluding commodity derivatives) of $13.3 million primarily due to accrued liabilities of $35.8 million, revenues payable of $12.6 million, and accounts payable of $25.1 million partially offset by accounts receivable of $36.3 million, prepaid expenses of $23.4 million and cash on hand of $0.5 million.

Debt Agreement

Revolving Credit Facility. On July 31, 2023, OLLC and Acquisitionco entered into the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility is a replacement in full of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility. The aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2024, was $118.0 million.

As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately $17.0 million of available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all the financial (current ratio and total leverage ratio) and non-financial covenants associated with the Revolving Credit Facility.

For additional information regarding our Revolving Credit Facility, see Note 7 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report.

Material Cash Requirements

Contractual Commitments. We have contractual commitments under our debt agreements, including interest payments and principal payments. See Note 7 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report for additional information.

Lease Obligations. We have operating leases for office and warehouse spaces, office equipment, compressors and surface rentals related to our business obligations. See Note 11 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report for additional information.

Sinking Fund Payments. We have a funding requirement to fund two trust accounts to comply with supplemental regulatory bonding requirements related to our decommissioning obligations for the Beta production facilities. As of June 30, 2024, our future commitments under these agreements were $4.5 million for the remainder of 2024 and $9.0 million per year until the escrow accounts are fully funded. See Note 14 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report for additional information.

Cash Flows from Operating, Investing and Financing Activities

Future litigation may be necessary, among other things, to defend ourselves by determining the scope, enforceability, and validity of claims. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
