FRISCO, Tex., Nov. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: VBHI) today announced its total proved reserves at October 31, 2021, increased 96% from year-end with an associated PV-10 value of $2.3 million at U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission pricing. These amounts are calculated under SEC guidelines relating to both commodity price assumptions and strict drilling schedule requirements.

“This reserve report highlights the strength of Verde’s assets, as reserves grew 96% due to organic growth and acquisitions,” said Verde’s CEO Scott Cox. “As a non-operator, we book limited future PUD locations, and our reserve report does not take into account our active portfolio management and anticipated future acquisitions. We believe this makes our reserve report significantly conservative relative to our development plan over the coming years.”

VBHI has revenue producing royalty interests in approximately 400 wells across the most active areas of the United States.

“After a difficult pricing environment in early 2021, we have seen a strong recovery in crude oil and natural gas prices that has positively impacted our reserves and the PV-10 value of our reserves. We remain confident in our strong asset base which is evident in our mid-year 2021 reserve report,” Mr. Cox said.

“With our clean balance sheet and strong projected cash flow generation, we have positioned Verde to actively pursue opportunities and continue to deliver on our strategic vision,” concluded Mr. Cox.
