Net debt as of July 31, 2022, and LTM EBITDA as of the second quarter of 2022
Martyn Willsher, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Amplify’s second quarter builds upon the successes of our prior achievements and continues to lay the foundation for generating incremental cash flow. The continued strength in commodity prices, coupled with the acceleration of our workover program in Oklahoma and non-operated development projects in East Texas and the Eagle Ford which have exceeded timing and performance expectations, has enabled us to increase full-year 2022 guidance expectations for the second time this year.”
Mr. Willsher concluded, “We continue to engage with regulatory agencies in order to obtain the remaining required approvals to expeditiously repair and restart our pipeline and bring the Beta field back online. In anticipation of returning the field to production we are focused on facility preparation projects. Across the rest of the asset base, the Company will continue to focus on enhancing operational performance and asset investments to take advantage of the strong commodity price environment and bolster free cash flow.”
Southern California Pipeline Incident
For more information and disclosures regarding the Incident, please see our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Key Financial Results
During the second quarter of 2022, Amplify generated $16.3 million of Adjusted EBITDA, a decrease of approximately $8.6 million from $24.9 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to timing variances regarding the recognition of loss of production income (“LOPI”) insurance proceeds related to the Incident, partially offset by higher commodity prices. For the second quarter, the Company recognized $8.8 million of LOPI proceeds, which represents two months of LOPI payments, compared to $17.5 million, or four months LOPI payments, for the prior quarter. Amplify will continue to recognize LOPI proceeds at the time they are approved by insurers for the remainder of the policy period or until Beta is returned to full production.
Free cash flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest and capital spending, was negative $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $14.9 million in the prior quarter. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily related to increased capital spending for incremental capital workover projects in Oklahoma, the timing of non-operated development projects in East Texas, and the annual maintenance turnaround at Bairoil, as well as the previously discussed differences in LOPI payment recognition during the first and second quarters.

Revolving Credit Facility
On June 20, 2022, Amplify completed the regularly scheduled redetermination of its borrowing base and entered into an amendment to its credit agreement, which terminated the automatic monthly reductions of the borrowing base and modified the affirmative hedging covenant. The redetermination affirmed the borrowing base at $225 million. The next regularly scheduled borrowing base redetermination is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2022.
As of July 31, 2022, Amplify had net debt of $185 million, consisting of $215 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility and $30 million of cash on hand. Net Debt to LTM EBITDA was 2.3x (net debt as of July 31, 2022 and 2Q22 LTM EBITDA).
Corporate Production and Pricing Update
During the second quarter of 2022, average daily production was approximately 20.4 MBoepd, held flat compared to 20.4 MBoepd in the first quarter of 2022, despite the Bairoil field being shut-in for 10 days during the second quarter for our annual turnaround. The Company’s product mix for the quarter consisted of 30% crude oil, 19% NGLs, and 51% natural gas.
Total oil, natural gas and NGL revenues in the second quarter were approximately $112.9 million, before the impact of derivatives, compared to $93.9 million in the prior quarter. The Company realized a loss on commodity derivatives of $48.6 million during the quarter, compared to a $30.9 million net loss during the previous quarter.

Costs and Expenses
Lease operating expenses in the second quarter of 2022 were approximately $33.3 million, or $17.91 per Boe, an increase of approximately $0.4 million compared to $32.9 million, or $17.92 per Boe, in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increased facility maintenance projects at Beta and workover expense projects at Bairoil, offset by lower base operating expenses in the Eagle Ford.
Severance and Ad Valorem taxes in the second quarter were approximately $8.6 million, an increase of $1.0 million compared to $7.6 million in the previous quarter. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily related to higher commodity prices during the second quarter of 2022. On a percentage basis, Amplify paid approximately 7.6% of total oil, NGL and natural gas sales revenue in taxes this quarter compared to 8.0% in the previous quarter.
Amplify incurred $7.3 million, or $3.92 per Boe, of gathering, processing and transportation expenses in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $8.0 million, or $4.36 per Boe, in the prior quarter. During the first quarter, Amplify recognized certain natural gas revenue deductions as gathering, processing and transportation expenses due to the Company’s election to take its gas in-kind in Oklahoma. This resulted in an increase to Amplify’s realized natural gas pricing during the past two quarters, which was partially offset by related incremental gathering, processing and transportation expenses.
Second quarter cash G&A expenses were $7.7 million this quarter, an increase of $0.6 million from $7.1 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to a one-time increase in certain professional and advisor fees.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the second quarter totaled $5.9 million, or $3.16 per Boe, compared to $5.6 million, or $3.07 per Boe, in the prior quarter.
Net interest expense was $3.1 million this quarter, an increase of $0.7 million from $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2022.
Amplify had an effective tax rate of 0% and did not record an income tax expense or benefit for the second quarter of 2022.
Capital Spending Update
Cash capital spending during the second quarter of 2022 was approximately $13.5 million, a $6.6 million increase from $6.9 million in the prior quarter. The majority of the capital expenditures in the second quarter were related to development activity in East Texas and the Eagle Ford, facility maintenance at Bairoil and Beta, and accelerated workover activity in Oklahoma to capitalize on current commodity prices.

Asset Operational Update and Statistics
Oklahoma:
- Production: 593 MBoe; 6.5 MBoepd
- Commodity Mix: 21% oil, 28 % NGLs, 51% natural gas
- LOE: $5.1 million; $8.58 per Boe
- Capex: $3.7 million
Amplify’s operating strategy in Oklahoma remains focused on prioritizing a stable free cash flow profile and managing production through an active workover program. As disclosed last quarter, the Company accelerated its workover program and is now running three workover rigs focused on rod-lift conversions and ESP optimizations, which reduce future operating expenses and downtime and generate highly attractive returns in the current pricing environment. As a result, production increased 8% from the previous quarter. During the second half of 2022, Amplify expects to continue the accelerated pace of its workover program, bringing additional wells and incremental production online.
Rockies (Bairoil):
- Production: 309 MBoe; 3.4 MBoepd
- Commodity Mix: 100% oil
- LOE: $13.4 million; $43.38 per Boe
- Capex: $2.8 million
The Company completed its annual turnaround at Bairoil during the second quarter, a ten-day, field-wide shut-in to perform production facilities maintenance, on time and on budget. The technical teams’ proactive approach to maintenance, in conjunction with their continued evaluation of the reservoir, help improve production performance and operational reliability while facilitating CO
2
injection and water-alternating-gas pattern optimization. Amplify intends to continue using new technologies, along with targeted workover activity and well stimulation, to drive further operational improvements and efficiencies.
Southern California (Beta):
- Production: 1 MBoe; 0.0 MBoepd
- Commodity Mix: 100% oil
- LOE: $7.6 million
- Capex: $1.7 million
As previously disclosed, all of the Company’s production and pipeline operations at the Beta field have been suspended. Amplify remains focused on obtaining the remaining required regulatory approvals to repair and restart the pipeline as soon as practicable and preparing the platforms for a return to production.
East Texas and North Louisiana:
- Production: 5.1 Bcfe; 56.1 MMcfepd (851 MBoe; 9.3 MBoepd)
- Commodity Mix: 5% oil, 20% NGLs, 75% natural gas
- LOE: $5.6 million; $1.09 per Mcfe ($6.55 per Boe)
- Capex: $3.6 million
Amplify’s East Texas operating strategy continues to focus on prudent management of production by prioritizing high-return workover projects and opportunistically participating in non-operated development opportunities. The Company participated in 3 gross (0.6 net) non-operated development wells that were brought online late in the second quarter of 2022, two months ahead of schedule, and initial production performance is exceeding expectations. Amplify is actively pursuing additional opportunities to bolster future free cash flow generation within our asset base.
Non-Operated Eagle Ford:
- Production: 104 MBoe; 1.1 MBoepd
- Commodity Mix: 77% oil, 11% NGLs, 12% natural gas
- LOE: $1.6 million; $15.39 per Boe
- Capex: $1.7 million
Amplify continues to opportunistically participate in attractive non-operated Eagle Ford development and recompletion projects as they arise. The Company’s operating partners completed 7 gross (0.4 net) new development wells during the second quarter of 2022 and initial production performance has exceeded internal expectations. Production increased 22% from the previous quarter as a result of the new completions. We intend to participate in several new development projects in the second half of 2022, which are projected to be on-line in the first quarter of 2023.
2022 Guidance Update
The following guidance is subject to the cautionary statements and limitations described under the “Forward-Looking Statements” caption at the end of this press release. Amplify’s updated 2022 guidance is based on its current expectations regarding capital expenditure levels and on the assumption that market demand and prices for oil and natural gas will continue at levels that allow for economic production of these products. Due to uncertainty regarding Beta’s restart timeline, the guidance below does not assume Beta returns to production in 2022. Guidance will be updated when additional information is available.

Amplify believes that a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking information to the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP cannot be made available without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures would require Amplify to predict the timing and likelihood of future transactions and other items that are difficult to accurately predict. Neither of these forward-looking measures, nor their probable significance, can be quantified with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures is not provided.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and net debt. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities, standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Amplify does.
Adjusted EBITDA
. Amplify defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, plus interest expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments; acquisition and divestiture related costs; share-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; loss on settlement of AROs; bad debt expense; and pipeline incident loss. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of Amplify’s financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) its operating performance as compared to other companies in Amplify’s industry without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support Amplify’s indebtedness; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA are net income and net cash provided by operating activities.
Free cash flow
. Amplify defines free cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and total capital expenditures. Free cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify’s investors since it serves as an indicator of the Company’s success in providing a cash return on investment. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to free cash flow are net income and net cash provided by operating activities.
Net debt
. Amplify defines net debt as the total principal amount drawn on the revolving credit facility less cash and cash equivalents. The Company uses net debt as a measure of financial position and believes this measure provides useful additional information to investors to evaluate the Company’s capital structure and financial leverage.
