First Quarter 2022 Highlights

• Q1 2022 run-rate daily production of 14,388 barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe") per day (6:1)
• Record Q1 2022 oil, natural gas and NGL revenues of $65.1 million, an increase of 25% from Q4 2021, reflecting improved realized commodity prices and $5.9 million of prior period adjustments
• Q1 2022 net income of approximately $8.4 million and net income attributable to common units of approximately $7.3 million
• Record Q1 2022 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $43.9 million, an increase of 34% from Q4 2021
• Record cash available for distribution of $0.64 per common unit, an increase of 31% from Q4 2021
• Announced a Q1 2022 cash distribution of $0.47 per common unit, an increase of 27% from Q4 2021 and a new record, reflecting a payout ratio of 75% of cash available for distribution; implies a 10.8% annualized yield based on the May 4, 2022 closing price of $17.40 per common unit; Kimbell intends to utilize the remaining 25% of its cash available for distribution to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's secured revolving credit facility
• As of March 31, 2022, Kimbell's major properties¹ had 5.03 net drilled but uncompleted wells ("DUCs") and net permitted locations on its acreage (2.25 net DUCs and 2.78 net permitted locations), up from 4.73 net DUCs and net permitted locations as of December 31, 2021
• As of March 31, 2022, Kimbell had 73 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, up 20% from Q4 2021 and representing 11.1%² market share of all rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time

• Kimbell affirms its financial and operational guidance ranges for 2022 previously disclosed in its Q4 2021 earnings release

 

1 These figures pertain only to Kimbell's major properties and do not include possible additional DUCs and permits from Kimbell's minor properties, which generally have a net revenue interest of 0.1% or below and are time consuming to quantify but, in the estimation of Kimbell's management, could add an additional 20% to Kimbell's net inventory. 2 Based on Kimbell rig count of 73 and Baker Hughes U.S. land rig count of 657 as of April 1, 2022.

 

Robert Ravnaas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kimbell Royalty GP, LLC, Kimbell's general partner (the "General Partner"), commented, "Strong commodity prices have translated into increased activity on our acreage, which is evidenced by the 20% increase in the number of rigs actively drilling on our acreage at no cost to us as of March 31, 2022 as compared to year-end 2021.  In addition, line-of-site inventory from our major properties increased 6% to 5.03 net DUCs and permits at March 31, 2022 as compared to year-end 2021, which is notable since we only need approximately 4.5 net wells completed each year to keep production flat.  While the Permian led all other basins in terms of growth in rig count, we believe strong natural gas prices will compel improved activity in the Haynesville, Marcellus and Mid-Con as we continue through 2022.  In fact, the Haynesville led all our regions in terms of net DUCs at March 31, 2022. 

"The United States exited the winter draw season with natural gas in storage of approximately 1.4 tcf, well below 2021 levels and the five-year average.  This relatively low level of natural gas in inventory coupled with less associated natural gas from oil directed drilling and recent record LNG exports should provide pricing support for natural gas throughout 2022.  In fact, Kimbell experienced some of the highest realized prices as compared to spot prices in Q1 2022 for natural gas that we have seen since our IPO in 2017.  Pricing improvements were also strong in the natural gas liquids market with realizations approaching 50% of WTI oil prices.

"Since our IPO just over five years ago, we have now distributed $6.93 per common unit and grown daily production by over 360%. As we look forward in 2022 and beyond, we are extremely excited about our role as a leading consolidator in the oil and natural gas royalty sector and the prospects for Kimbell to generate long-term unitholder value for years to come."

First Quarter 2022 Distribution and Debt Repayment

On April 22, 2022, the Board of Directors of the General Partner (the "Board of Directors") approved a cash distribution payment to common unitholders of 75% of cash available for distribution for the first quarter of 2022, or $0.47 per common unit.  The distribution will be payable on May 9, 2022 to common unitholders of record at the close of business on May 2, 2022.  Kimbell plans to utilize the remaining 25% of cash available for distribution for the first quarter of 2022 to pay down a portion of the outstanding borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility.  Since May 2020 (excluding the expected upcoming pay down from the remaining 25% of Q1 2022 projected cash available for distribution), Kimbell has paid down approximately $52.5 million of outstanding borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility by allocating a portion of its cash available for distribution for debt pay down.

Kimbell expects that substantially all of its first quarter 2022 distribution will not constitute taxable dividend income and instead will generally result in a non-taxable reduction to the tax basis of unitholders' common units.  The reduced tax basis will increase unitholders' capital gain (or decrease unitholders' capital loss) when unitholders sell their common units. 

Financial Highlights

Kimbell's first quarter 2022 average realized price per Bbl of oil was $92.01, per Mcf of natural gas was $4.48, per Bbl of NGLs was $43.24 and per Boe combined was $45.69.

During the first quarter of 2022, Kimbell's total revenues were $33.8 million, net income was approximately $8.4 million and net income attributable to common units was approximately $7.3 million, or $0.16 per common unit. 

Total first quarter 2022 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $43.9 million (consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measures at the end of this news release). 

In the first quarter of 2022, Kimbell's G&A expense was $6.6 million, $4.4 million of which was Cash G&A expense, or $3.39 per Boe (Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are non-GAAP financial measures.  Please see definition under Non-GAAP Financial Measures in the Supplemental Schedules included in this news release).  Unit-based compensation in the first quarter of 2022, which is a non-cash G&A expense, was $2.2 million, or $1.69 per Boe.

As of March 31, 2022, Kimbell had approximately $226.5 million in debt outstanding under its secured revolving credit facility, had net debt to first quarter 2022 trailing twelve month consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of approximately 1.5x and remained in compliance with all financial covenants under its secured revolving credit facility.   Kimbell had approximately $48.5 million in undrawn capacity under its secured revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2022.

As noted above, since Kimbell Tiger completed its initial public offering on February 8, 2022, its financial statements are fully consolidated into Kimbell's financial statements because Kimbell is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the special purpose acquisition company.

As of March 31, 2022, Kimbell had outstanding 57,290,923 common units and 8,253,660 Class B units.  As of May 5, 2022, Kimbell had outstanding 57,331,833 common units and 8,211,579 Class B units.

Production

First quarter 2022 average daily production was 14,482 Boe per day (6:1), which consisted of 94 Boe per day related to prior period production recognized in Q1 2022, and 14,388 Boe per day of run-rate production.  The 14,388 Boe per day of run-rate production was composed of approximately 61% from natural gas (6:1) and approximately 39% from liquids (25% from oil and 14% from NGLs).  The prior period production recognized in Q1 2022 was attributable to past production that was released from suspense during the first quarter of 2022.

Operational Update

As of March 31, 2022, Kimbell's major properties had 705 gross (2.25 net) DUCs and 683 gross (2.78 net) permitted locations on its acreage.  In addition, as of March 31, 2022, Kimbell had 73 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, which represents an approximate 11.1% market share of all land rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time.

Hedging Update

Kimbell maintains a consistent hedging methodology, and hedges out two years on a rolling quarterly basis.  The Company's commodity derivative contracts consist of fixed price swaps, under which Kimbell receives a fixed price for the contract and pays a floating market price to the counterparty over a specified period for a contracted volume.  Kimbell hedges expected daily production based on the amount of debt as a percent of total enterprise value.  These economic hedges constituted approximately 29% of daily production for the first quarter of 2022.

Supplemental Schedules

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA, Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are used as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measures by management and external users of Kimbell's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.  Kimbell believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate Kimbell's operating performance and compare the results of Kimbell's operations period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure.  In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate cash flow available to pay distributions to Kimbell's unitholders.  Kimbell defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), net of depreciation and depletion expense, interest expense, income taxes, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, non cash unit based compensation, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, cash distribution from affiliate, equity income in affiliate, interest income and non-recurring general and administrative expenses incurred relating to Kimbell Tiger's IPO.  Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) or net cash provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP.  Kimbell excludes the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within Kimbell's industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.  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 historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA.  Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids revenues, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.  Kimbell's computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.  Kimbell expects that cash available for distribution for each quarter will generally equal its Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations, tax obligations, and fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate.

Kimbell believes Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are useful metrics because they isolate cash costs within overall G&A expense and measure cash costs relative to overall production, which is a widely utilized metric to evaluate operational performance within the energy sector.  Cash G&A is defined as Kimbell's general and administrative expenses less unit-based compensation expense.  Cash G&A per Boe is defined as Cash G&A divided by total production for a period.  Cash G&A should not be considered an alternative to G&A expense presented in accordance with GAAP. Kimbell's computations of Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
