See Quarterly Cash Dividend section below regarding Board approval of future dividends.

Robert M. (“Rob”) Roosa, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our team once again generated record operational and financial results during the quarter including record production, revenue, EBITDA(1) and dividends. Our production volumes increased 8% sequentially to a record 13,019 Boe/d driven by continued strong DUC conversions, particularly conversions in the Permian Basin where production volumes grew by 24% sequentially. We also saw record drilling activity during the quarter with approximately 253 gross wells spud on our assets, and when combined with our acquisition efforts, we were able to maintain an almost constant DUC inventory level even with the aforementioned strong conversions. In total, we ended the second quarter with 11.0 net activity wells in inventory and anticipate our production volumes for the full year 2022 to average between 12,300 and 13,000 Boe/d, which represents a 9% increase relative to our original guidance provided in February.”

Blake C. Williams, Chief Financial Officer, added, “Our results continue to excel and highlight the benefits of our high margin business model especially in the current inflationary environment. Our EBITDA(1) grew 31% sequentially and is up 159% year over year, leading to our $0.77 dividend at a 75% payout ratio. While many companies are seeing higher cost, we instead saw an increased EBITDA margin(1) due to our unhedged price realizations and largely fixed cost structure. Our team also took advantage of the supportive commodity price environment by successfully executing our largest, single asset monetization to date generating proceeds of approximately $67.3 million. The proceeds, along with our retained cash flow, were utilized to fully fund our second quarter ground game acquisitions as well as reduce our Net Debt(1) outstanding at the end of the quarter to approximately $49 million. With over $200 million of available liquidity, we plan to continue creating value for our shareholders through accretive acquisitions and our current and future return of capital program.”

OPERATIONAL UPDATE

Mineral and Royalty Interest Ownership Update

During the second quarter 2022, the Company executed twenty transactions acquiring approximately 885 net royalty acres (standardized to a 1/8th royalty interest) and deployed $33.2 million in capital. The Company deployed all of its mineral acquisition capital in the second quarter to the Permian Basin. Second quarter acquisitions are expected to deliver near-term production and cash flow growth with the addition of 116 gross DUCs (0.8 net) and 27 gross permits (0.2 net) to inventory counts. The Company also divested 12,550 net royalty acres in the Anadarko Basin generating approximately $67.3 million in cash proceeds, net of customary closing adjustments.

Brigham Minerals Second Quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA ex lease bonus, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Discretionary Cash Flow, Discretionary Cash Flow ex lease bonus, and Net Debt are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures used by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts and others to assess the financial performance of our assets and their ability to sustain dividends over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net Income before depreciation, depletion and amortization, share-based compensation expense, interest expense, and income tax expense, less other income. We define Adjusted EBITDA ex lease bonus as Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate the impacts of lease bonus and other revenues we receive due to the unpredictability of timing of the revenue. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. We define Discretionary Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and cash taxes. We define Discretionary Cash Flow ex lease bonus as Discretionary Cash Flow further adjusted to eliminate the impacts of lease bonus revenue. We define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA ex lease bonus, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Discretionary Cash Flow, Discretionary Cash Flow ex lease bonus, and Net Debt do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA ex lease bonus, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Discretionary Cash Flow and Discretionary Cash Flow ex lease bonus have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Net Debt should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, total debt, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA ex lease bonus, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Discretionary Cash Flow, Discretionary Cash Flow ex lease bonus, and Net Debt may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following tables present a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA ex lease bonus, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Discretionary Cash Flow, Discretionary Cash Flow ex lease bonus, and Net Debt to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this press release specifically include the expectations of plans, strategies, objectives and anticipated financial and operating results of the Company, including production and other guidance within this press release. These statements are based on certain assumptions made by the Company based on management’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements.
