Martyn Willsher, President and Chief Executive Officer of Amplify commented, “I am very pleased with Amplify’s fourth quarter operational and financial results. Through the continued execution of our disciplined operating strategy and robust hedging program, we generated significant free cash flow despite the impacts of the ongoing pandemic and depressed commodity prices during 2020, demonstrating the sustainable value of our long-lived, low-decline assets.”

Mr. Willsher continued, “None of our achievements in 2020 would have been possible without our extraordinary employees, and I remain extremely grateful for their outstanding work, resourcefulness and dedication. Despite 2020 being a challenging year, we are starting 2021 with renewed optimism and continued commitment to exceptional execution and delivering value for our stakeholders.”

“Our plan for 2021 is to remain focused on managing our costs, generating free cash flow and improving our balance sheet. With the recent improvement in commodity prices, we also intend to commence a limited development program in our Beta Field asset, which we believe retains significant upside for the Company and should bolster our profitability and operating margins in the coming years. Our additional capital for this year will be focused on low risk workover and facility projects, which will allow us to continue building liquidity and delevering our balance sheet,” Mr. Willsher concluded.

2020 Year-End Proved Reserve Update

Amplify’s reserves estimates were prepared by its third-party independent reserve consultant, Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. The Company’s estimated proved reserves at SEC pricing for year-end 2020 totaled 114 MMBoe, which consisted of 97 MMBoe of proved developed reserves and 17 MMBoe of proved undeveloped (PUD) reserves. Total proved reserves were comprised of 41% oil, 19% NGLs, and 40% natural gas. Geographically, 34% are in Oklahoma, 30% are in East Texas and Northern Louisiana, 19% are in the Rockies, 15% are in southern California, and 2% are in the Eagle Ford.

At year-end 2020, as prepared utilizing SEC pricing(1), Amplify’s proved reserves and proved developed reserves had PV-10 values of approximately $298 million and $239 million, respectively. Utilizing strip pricing as of March 1, the Company’s year-end 2020 proved reserves and proved developed reserves had PV-10 values of approximately $778 million and $594 million, respectively.

Key Financial Results

During the fourth quarter of 2020, Amplify generated $21.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA, a decrease of $2.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2020. This decrease was in line with internal forecasts and was primarily attributable to natural production decline, partially offset by the continued realization of our previously announced cost reduction initiatives and commodity price improvement during the quarter.

Free Cash Flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest and capital spending, was $16 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, held flat compared to the prior quarter and above internal forecasts. This favorable result, despite lower Adjusted EBITDA, was primarily attributable to reduced capital expenditures, which highlights Amplify’s commitment to capital discipline. The Company generated over $41 million in Free Cash Flow in 2020 and expects to continue generating cash flow going forward even at prices below current strip pricing.

Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity Update

On November 18, 2020, Amplify successfully completed its fall 2020 borrowing base redetermination, and the Company’s borrowing base was reaffirmed at $260 million.

As of March 1, 2021, Amplify had total net debt of $228 million, with $250 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility and $22 million of cash on hand.

Asset Impairment

Due to the significant decrease in commodity prices during 2020, Amplify incurred non-cash impairment charges of Amplify’s non-operated Eagle Ford asset of $22 million.

Production Update

During the fourth quarter of 2020, average daily production was approximately 26.3 MBoe/d, a decrease of 5% from 27.7 MBoe/d in the third quarter of 2020, and exceeded internal forecasts despite occasional weather interruptions and incremental well shut-ins resulting from depressed commodity prices. Year-over-year production declines have continued to decrease as our long-lived, PDP-heavy assets mature, which we expect will continue in the coming years. Our product mix has also become increasingly liquids-weighted, a trend which we expect to continue going forward and further driving long-term profitability. Oil composition in the fourth quarter 2020 increased approximately 11% from the first quarter of 2020.

Production in East Texas exceeded internal forecasts as a result of efficient workover activity. In Oklahoma, the operations team continued to prudently return economic wells to production and converted five wells to rod-lift from electrical submersible pumps. Amplify’s Oklahoma operating strategy remains focused on maintaining a steady asset cash flow profile by returning only the most economic wells to production. Combined with rod-lift conversions, this approach reduces future electrical costs and well downtime. At Beta, net production during the fourth quarter was slightly above internal expectations resulting from high-grading economic workovers to offset minor well failures. Beta asset level revenue increased by approximately $1.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 due to royalty relief. Production in our oil-weighted Bairoil field decreased slightly quarter over quarter primarily due to surface facility issues and reduced CO2 recycle rates. Lastly, our non-operated Eagle Ford assets delivered production that was largely in line with internal forecasts as the production declines from wells that came online in the second quarter of 2020 have stabilized.

Total oil, natural gas and NGL revenues in the fourth quarter of 2020 were approximately $55.7 million, before the impact of derivatives, compared to $52.5 million in the third quarter. The Company realized a gain on commodity derivatives of $8.5 million during the quarter, compared to a $14.0 million gain during the third quarter. For the full-year 2020, total unhedged oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were approximately $200.9 million. The Company realized a gain on commodity derivatives of $62.4 million during the full-year 2020, compared to a $4.4 million gain during the full-year 2019.

Lease Operating Expenses

Lease operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2020 were approximately $28.5 million, a decrease of $7.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. Amplify has generated approximately $18 million in aggregate cost reductions, an 11% reduction in per-unit LOE, from the first quarter to the fourth quarter of 2020, which has greatly improved expectations for cash margin and sustainable cash flow generation. Cost reductions from prior periods have held steady throughout the fourth quarter of 2020, and the majority are expected to carry over through 2021.

Capital Spending Update and Outlook

Capital spending during the fourth quarter of 2020 was approximately $2.2 million, a decrease of approximately $2.8 million from $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2020. The decrease was largely attributable to reduced capital workover activity during the fourth quarter of 2020. For the full-year 2020, Amplify spent approximately $29.2 million in capital expenditures, primarily focused on facility maintenance projects essential to equipment integrity and operational efficiency, high rate of return workover projects, and non-operated drilling and completion activity in the Eagle Ford.

Amplify’s 2021 capital program is anticipated to be between $28 million and $39 million.

On an area-by-area basis, Amplify’s largest capital allocation in 2021 will be for our offshore Beta property, where Amplify anticipates spending approximately $14 million toward the commencement of our phased development program, along with capital for workovers to return production from offline wells and facility maintenance.

Amplify anticipates spending approximately $8 million in Oklahoma for additional rod lift conversions and ESP (electric submersible pump) optimizations. The rod lift conversion project initiated in late 2018 has been successful in significantly reducing operating expenditures and recurring maintenance costs.

At Bairoil, Amplify has budgeted approximately $5 million in 2021 for facility work and capital workovers.

In the non-operated Eagle Ford, Amplify anticipates $6 million in capex for completion of forty-eight gross (1.2 net) wells in 2021.

Lastly in East Texas, Amplify has budgeted less than $1 million in capital workovers.

Winter Storm Uri Update

During February of 2021, Amplify’s Oklahoma, East Texas and Eagle Ford assets experienced production interruptions due the extreme cold weather, ice, and snow produced by Winter Storm Uri. Production levels were returned to pre-storm levels within 10 days, and full-year production targets are within approximately 200 Boe/d of original estimates. The swift return of production is a testament to the top-tier operating efficiency of our field staff. Winter Storm Uri’s effects also underscored the value of the Company’s diversified geographical asset base.

Full-Year 2021 Guidance

The following guidance included in this press release is subject to the cautionary statements and limitations described under the "Forward-Looking Statements" caption at the end of this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of 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 historical facts, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that Amplify expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

Please read the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, and if applicable, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other public filings and press releases for a discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those in such forward-looking statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. 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 or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Amplify does.

Adjusted EBITDA. Amplify defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, plus interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization; impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments; losses on sale of assets; unit-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; acquisition and divestiture related expenses; amortization of gain associated with terminated commodity derivatives, bad debt expense; and other non-routine items, less interest income; gain on extinguishment of debt; income tax benefit; gains on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements paid on expired commodity derivative instruments; gains on sale of assets and other, net; and other non-routine items. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of Amplify’s financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) its operating performance as compared to other companies in Amplify’s industry without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support Amplify’s indebtedness; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net cash provided by operating activities.

Free Cash Flow. Amplify defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash income taxes; cash interest expense; and total capital expenditures. Free cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify’s investors since it serves as an indicator of the Company’s success in providing a cash return on investment. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities.
