Insights

Vitesse Energy's Q2 2024 results show a mixed performance. The company reported $10.9 million in net income and $43.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA. Production increased by 8% quarter-over-quarter to 13,504 Boe/day, with oil comprising 70% of production and 96% of revenue.

The company's financial position appears stable with a Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 0.67. However, total debt increased to $115 million. The 5% dividend increase to $0.525 per share is positive for shareholders, but investors should monitor the sustainability of this payout given the capital-intensive nature of the business.

Vitesse's hedging strategy, covering 62% of oil production, provides some downside protection but may limit upside potential if oil prices rise significantly. The company's focus on acquisitions and development in the Williston Basin could drive future growth, but also increases capital expenditure requirements.

Vitesse Energy's Q2 results reflect the volatile nature of the oil and gas sector. The company's increased production and higher realized oil prices ($74.63 per Bbl before hedging) contributed to revenue growth. However, the natural gas side faces challenges with prices dropping to $1.11 per Mcf.

The company's operational efficiency is improving, with lease operating expenses decreasing 3% on a per unit basis. This is important in a commodity business where cost control is key. The significant number of wells in drilling or completion phases (308 gross, 11.1 net) suggests potential for future production growth.

Vitesse's strategy of acquiring near-term development properties in the Williston Basin is a calculated risk. While it could boost production and cash flows in late 2024 and 2025, it also exposes the company to execution risks and potential market fluctuations. The success of this strategy will largely depend on oil price trends and the company's ability to efficiently develop these assets.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTS

“In the second quarter we increased our dividend by 5%,” commented Bob Gerrity, Vitesse’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We closed previously announced near-term development acquisitions and added hedges to protect returns, which supports the dividend as the added production comes online later this year and in early 2025.”

STOCKHOLDER RETURNS

In July 2024, Vitesse’s Board of Directors declared its third quarter cash dividend for Vitesse’s common stock of $0.525 per share for stockholders of record as of September 16, 2024, which will be paid on September 30, 2024.

On June 28, 2024, the Company paid its second quarter cash dividend of $0.525 per share to common stockholders of record as of June 14, 2024.

FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS

Second quarter net income was $10.9 million and Adjusted Net Income was $11.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $43.1 million. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Oil and natural gas production for the second quarter of 2024 averaged 13,504 Boe per day, an increase of 8% from the first quarter of 2024. Oil represented 70% of production and 96% of total oil and natural gas revenue. Total revenue, including the effects of our realized hedges, was $65.6 million.

Vitesse’s average realized oil and natural gas prices before hedging were $74.63 per Bbl and $1.11 per Mcf, respectively, during the second quarter of 2024. The Company had hedges covering 62% of oil production in the second quarter of 2024 and its realized oil price with hedging was $73.42 per Bbl.

Lease operating expenses in the second quarter of 2024 were $12.3 million, or $9.99 per Boe, a 3% decrease on a per unit basis compared to the first quarter of 2024. The lower lease operating expense is primarily attributable to weather related expenses in the first quarter. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $4.7 million, or $3.84 per Boe.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

As of June 30, 2024, Vitesse had $0.1 million in cash and $115.0 million of borrowings outstanding on its revolving credit facility. Vitesse had total liquidity of $130.1 million as of June 30, 2024, consisting of cash and $130.0 million of committed borrowing availability under its revolving credit facility.

During the quarter, Vitesse invested $24.5 million in development capital expenditures and $13.1 million in acquisitions of oil and gas properties.

OPERATIONS UPDATE

As of June 30, 2024 the Company owned an interest in 308 gross (11.1 net) wells that were either drilling or in the completion phase, and another 372 gross (8.7 net) locations that had been permitted for development.

The Company closed previously announced near-term development acquisitions in the Williston Basin of North Dakota that will result in over $40 million of acquisition and related development capital expenditures primarily during 2024. These acquisitions are expected to provide significant increases to production and cash flows primarily during the fourth quarter of 2024 and into 2025.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Vitesse defines Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net income (loss) before (i) non-cash gains and losses on unsettled derivative instruments, (ii) non-cash equity-based compensation, and (iii) certain other non-cash items; reduced by the estimated impact of income tax expense.

Net Debt is calculated by deducting cash on hand from the amount outstanding on our revolving credit facility as of the balance sheet or measurement date.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before expenses for interest, income taxes, depletion, depreciation, amortization and accretion, and excludes non-cash equity-based compensation and non-cash gains and losses on unsettled derivative instruments in addition to certain other items.

Vitesse defines Free Cash Flow as cash flow from operations, adding back changes in operating assets and liabilities, less development of oil and gas properties.

Management believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors to gain an overall understanding of financial performance. Specifically, management believes the non-GAAP financial measures included herein provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that management believes are not indicative of Vitesse’s core operating results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are used by management for budgeting and forecasting as well as subsequently measuring Vitesse’s performance, and management believes it is providing investors with financial measures that most closely align to its internal measurement processes. A reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included below.
