Insights

Mach Natural Resources LP's Q2 2024 results demonstrate solid financial performance and operational efficiency. The company's total revenue of $240 million and net income of $40 million reflect a strong quarter. Notably, the Adjusted EBITDA of $136 million and net cash from operations of $117 million indicate robust cash generation.

The company's focus on low leverage is evident with a pro forma net-debt-to-Adjusted-EBITDA ratio of 0.9x, which is conservative for the industry. This financial prudence allows Mach to maintain its quarterly cash distribution of $0.90 per unit, aligning with its distribution-focused strategy.

The reduction in capital expenditure guidance by 15% due to rig count reduction shows disciplined capital management. However, investors should monitor how this might impact future production growth.

Mach's Q2 operational results are impressive, with total net production of 89.3 Mboe/d exceeding guidance. The production mix of 23% oil, 53% natural gas and 24% NGLs is well-balanced, though the relatively low oil percentage might concern some investors given oil's higher margins.

The company's efficiency is evident in its lease operating expense of $5.72 per Boe, which was below guidance. This, combined with the reduction in rig count from two to one in the Oswego area, demonstrates Mach's ability to optimize operations in response to market conditions.

The divestment of Western Anadarko acreage for $38 million with no associated production suggests strategic portfolio management. However, investors should watch for the impact on future production and reserve replacement.

OKLAHOMA CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mach Natural Resources LP (NYSE: MNR) (“Mach” or the “Company”) today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The Company also announced its quarterly cash distribution and updated its full year 2024 outlook.

2024 Operating Plan and Guidance

Today the Company provided updated guidance for 2024 that incorporates the impact of a rig-count reduction, as well as operational efficiencies achieved year-to-date.

During the second quarter, Mach lowered its operated rig count in the Oswego from two rigs to one rig. As a result, the midpoint of full-year capital expenditure guidance is reduced by 15%. Oil volumes for the third quarter 2024 and fourth quarter 2024 are expected to range between 18.6 MBbl/d to 19.9 MBbl/d. Full-year 2024 oil volumes are expected to range between 19.4 MBbl/d to 20.6 MBbl/d. The decision to reduce rig count is fully consistent with the Company's strategic framework that prioritizes a disciplined reinvestment rate.

In order to account for better-than-expected operational efficiencies achieved year-to-date, the midpoint of full-year 2024 guidance for lease operating expense per BOE has been lowered by 3%. In addition, full-year 2024 total oil-equivalent volumes are expected to range between 82.2 Mboe/d to 87.2 Mboe/d, representing a midpoint improved by 1%. Additional details of Mach's forward-looking guidance are available on the Company's website at www.machnr.com.
