Martyn Willsher, Amplify’s President and Chief
Executive Officer, commented, “In early 2024, we told stakeholders
that 2024 had the potential to be a transformative year for the
Company, and we believe that we delivered on that expectation
throughout the year. The recently announced transaction with
Juniper Capital expands our operations into the DJ and Powder River
Basins, increases our scale, operating efficiency and margins,
improves our inventory of attractive drilling locations, and
provides us with a new core area for potential M&A activity.
The transaction also resulted in a new long-term partnership with
Juniper Capital, who have a long history of delivering substantial
value to shareholders. At Beta, we safely and successfully
initiated a drilling program, which has increased our confidence
regarding the future inventory of the field and has enabled us to
expand our development plans for this prolific asset in 2025 and
beyond.”
Mr. Willsher continued, “While we have focused
our attention and resources on these two significant initiatives,
our team has also delivered value to stockholders by pursuing
opportunities to reduce operating expenses and maximize the value
of our existing asset base. For example, Magnify Energy Services,
our wholly owned subsidiary that provides oilfield services to
Amplify-operated wells, expanded meaningfully in scope, realizing a
significant increase in revenue and efficiency and reducing
operating costs in East Texas and Oklahoma. We also renegotiated
several existing contracts, like our iodine extraction contract, to
receive improved economics. Although smaller in scope, these
efforts have demonstrated management’s commitment to identifying
areas to improve our operations and deliver value to stockholders.
On the value maximizing front, we were able to monetize a portion
of our acreage with Haynesville rights for several million dollars,
while retaining an interest to realize upside value.”
Mr. Willsher concluded, “We believe that our
strategic and operational accomplishments in 2024 set the
foundation for Amplify’s future and that in 2025 we will begin to
capitalize on the growth potential of this significantly enhanced
asset base. By delivering on our 2025 strategic initiatives,
we believe we can create immediate and long-term value for
Amplify’s stockholders.”
Juniper Capital Rocky Mountain Assets
Update
On January 15, 2025, Amplify announced that it
has entered into a definitive merger agreement with privately held
Juniper to combine with certain Juniper portfolio companies owning
assets and leasehold interests in the DJ and Powder River Basins.
Such portfolio companies are oil-weighted and include approximately
287,000 net acres. We expect to close the acquisition in the second
quarter of 2025. Amplify has provided more information on the
portfolio companies and their assets and the value potential of the
Transaction in its latest investor presentation, available on its
investor relations website.
On March 4, 2025, a definitive proxy statement
was filed providing additional details on the Transaction. A
special meeting of stockholders, to be held virtually, has been
scheduled for April 14, 2025, at 9:00 am Central Time, where
stockholders of record as of March 3, 2025 can vote to approve the
issuance of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common
Stock”) (as described in more detail in the definitive proxy
statement) in connection with the Transaction. In order to
virtually attend, stockholders must register in advance at
www.cesonlineservices.com/ampysm_vm prior to April 13, 2025 at 9:00
a.m. Central Time. More information can be found in the definitive
proxy statement on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the
Company’s website, www.amplifyenergy.com, under the Investor
Relations section. Upon approval from our stockholders of the
issuance of Common Stock and the resulting closing of the
Transaction, Amplify and Juniper are expected to own approximately
61% and 39%, respectively, of the combined company’s outstanding
equity.
In anticipation of closing, Amplify is currently
working with Juniper and its portfolio companies on integrating the
Juniper assets into the Amplify organization. Furthermore, the
Company expects to refinance a substantial portion of its
outstanding debt and approximately $133 million in principal amount
of the portfolio companies’ outstanding debt prior to closing the
Transaction. Amplify intends to update the market with developments
of the Transaction as they progress.
East Texas Haynesville Monetization
Update
Starting in 2024, several operators expressed
increased interest in buying or partnering with Amplify on our East
Texas Haynesville interests. In December 2024, Amplify monetized
ninety percent (90%) of its interests in certain units with
Haynesville rights in Panola and Shelby Counties, while retaining a
ten percent (10%) working interest and the ability to participate
in any well drilled within the boundary of such units. Upon
closing, such transaction generated approximately $1.4 million in
proceeds.
In January 2025, Amplify completed a second
transaction with a separate counterparty. Amplify sold ninety
percent (90%) of its interest in certain units with Haynesville
rights in Harrison County, Texas, in addition to 11 gross operated
wells. This transaction also established an Area of Mutual Interest
(“AMI”) with the counterparty covering 10,000 gross acres. Amplify
retained a ten percent (10%) working interest in the units it
divested and purchased a ten percent (10%) working interest in the
counterparty’s acreage. Amplify generated net proceeds of $6.2
million from these transactions and estimates the AMI has more than
30 potential gross drilling locations.
2024 Year-End Proved Reserve
Update
The Company’s estimated proved reserves at SEC
pricing for year-end 2024 totaled 93.0 MMBoe, which consisted of
82.2 MMBoe of proved developed reserves and 10.8 MMBoe of proved
undeveloped reserves. Proved developed reserves were lower
year-over-year, primarily due to lower SEC pricing for oil and
natural gas, which fell from $78.22 to $75.48 for oil and from
$2.64 to $2.13 for natural gas, and the impact of 2024 production
roll-off. Total proved reserves were comprised of 44% oil, 19%
NGLs, and 37% natural gas.
At year-end 2024, Amplify’s total proved
reserves and proved developed reserves had PV-10 values of
approximately $736 million and $507 million, respectively, using
SEC pricing. Proved developed reserve value at Bairoil was lower
than 2023 due to a combination of SEC pricing, production
performance and higher operating cost assumptions due to
significant increases in regulated electricity rates. Proved
undeveloped reserves have increased materially as a result of the
successful 2024 Beta development program, with the Company adding
23 additional locations and approximately $200 million in PV-10
value. The initial production rates for the two Beta wells brought
on-line in 2024 exceeded the type-curves included in our year-end
reserve report, and Amplify will consider increasing the type curve
assumptions for Beta development wells after evaluating results
from the 2025 development program. Detail on the Company’s reserves
by asset is provided in the table below. Additionally, Amplify has
provided more information on its Beta development program and the
substantial value potential of the field in its latest investor
presentation, available on its investor relations website.

Key Financial Results
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company
reported a net loss of approximately $7.4 million. The net loss was
primarily attributable to a non-cash unrealized loss on commodity
derivatives during the period. Excluding the impact of the non-cash
unrealized loss on commodity derivatives in addition to other
one-time impacts, Amplify generated Adjusted Net Income of $5.1
million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $21.8
million, a decrease of approximately $3.7 million from $25.5
million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily due to
lower realized oil prices (net of hedges) in the fourth quarter
compared to the prior quarter.
Free cash flow was $2.9 million for the fourth
quarter, a decrease of $0.7 million compared to the prior quarter.
Amplify has now generated positive free cash flow in 18 of the last
19 fiscal quarters.

Revolving Credit Facility
As of December 31, 2024, Amplify had $127.0
million outstanding under its revolving credit facility, and net
debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA was 1.2x (net debt as of December 31,
2024 and 4Q24 LTM Adjusted EBITDA). Fourth quarter net debt
increased from the prior quarter due to expected changes in working
capital and increased development activity, primarily at Beta.
Corporate Production and
Pricing
During the fourth quarter of 2024, average daily
production was approximately 18.5 Mboepd, a decrease of 0.5 Mboepd
from the prior quarter. The decrease in production was driven by
gas volumes, which were impacted by gas plant realizations in East
Texas. Our oil volumes, although slightly higher compared to the
prior quarter, were impacted by platform shutdowns following the
completion of the emission reduction and electrification facility
projects and several unexpected well failures and subsequent
interventions at Beta. With the successful completion of the
electrification and emissions reduction project in the fourth
quarter 2024 and the intervention projects completed by end of
January 2025, we are projecting Beta production to be significantly
higher than the fourth quarter, before the impact of the 2025
drilling program. As of March 2, 2025, current 7-day average
production rates at Beta were 4,834 gross Bopd (3,635 net Bopd),
representing an approximate 9% increase from fourth quarter 2024
volumes, with minimal contribution from the recently completed C48
well, which we continue to draw down since completing in
mid-February.
The Company’s product mix for the quarter was
45% crude oil, 17% NGLs, and 38% natural gas.

Costs and Expenses
Lease operating expenses in the fourth quarter
of 2024 were approximately $35.1 million, or $20.57 per Boe, a $1.8
million increase compared to the prior quarter. Due to increased
well failures in the fourth quarter, Beta lease operating costs
were higher compared to the prior quarter. Lease operating expenses
do not reflect $0.9 million of income generated by Magnify in the
fourth quarter.
Severance and ad valorem taxes in the fourth
quarter were approximately $5.4 million, a decrease of $0.6 million
compared to $6.0 million in the prior quarter, and in line with
expectations. Severance and ad valorem taxes as a percentage of
revenue were approximately 8.0% in the fourth quarter.
Amplify incurred $4.5 million, or $2.62 per Boe,
of gathering, processing and transportation expenses in the fourth
quarter, compared to $4.3 million, or $2.45 per Boe, in the prior
quarter.
Cash G&A expenses in the fourth quarter were
$6.3 million, an increase of $0.1 million compared to the prior
quarter and in-line with expectations.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense
in the fourth quarter totaled $8.4 million, or $4.93 per Boe,
compared to $8.1 million, or $4.62 per Boe, in the prior
quarter.
Net interest expense was $3.7 million in the
fourth quarter, a decrease of $0.1 million compared to $3.8 million
in the prior quarter.
Amplify recorded a current income tax benefit of
$2.1 million in the fourth quarter.
Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Capital
Investments
Cash capital investment during the fourth
quarter of 2024 was approximately $15.3 million. During the fourth
quarter, the Company’s capital allocation was approximately 65% for
Beta development drilling and facility projects, with the remainder
distributed across the Company’s other assets.

Amplify’s 2025 operations and development plan
is designed to continue unlocking the underlying value of the
Company’s assets. To achieve this goal, we intend to 1) continue
our development program at Beta, 2) execute on low-cost,
high-return workover projects, and 3) reduce operating costs by
increasing activity at Magnify.
At Beta, Amplify intends to complete six wells
in 2025. The C48 well, the first of the six wells to be completed
in 2025, was drilled in the fourth quarter of 2024 and completed in
mid-February. Similar to the A50 and C59 wells drilled in 2024, the
completion of the C48 well was initially designed to target the
D-sand. However, drilling conditions encountered in the D-sand and
the quality of the C-Sand observed while drilling through the
formation, led the team to alter the completion design and target
the C-sand instead. The C48 will be the first test of the
horizontal potential of the C-sand and we will share the results of
the C48 well after obtaining sufficient initial production
data.
In 2024 Amplify brought online two new wells at
Beta, the A50 well (brought online in June) and the C59 well
(brought online in October), both of which exceeded internal
projections and increased Beta’s overall production approximately
15% in January 2025 compared to January of 2024. Similarly, the six
Beta completions planned in 2025 are expected to significantly
increase Amplify’s oil production year-over-year. Additional
information regarding the Beta development plan can be found in the
investor presentation on the Company’s investor relations
website.
In addition to drilling and completing the six
wells, Amplify intends to make continued investments in Beta’s
facilities. In 2025, the Company expects to invest approximately $8
million to upgrade a 2-mile pipeline that ships all produced fluid
from platform Eureka to platform Elly.
At Bairoil, we continue to focus on enhancing
water-alternating-gas injection performance through targeted well
recompletions and conversions, which helps offset the asset’s
nominal production declines. Our plan also includes an investment
at our CO2 gas plant intended to reduce overall power usage and
lease operating expenses in the second half of 2025.
Amplify’s operating strategy in Oklahoma remains
focused on prioritizing a stable free cash flow profile by managing
production through an active workover program, artificial lift
enhancements, extending well run-times and continuing to reduce
operating costs.
In East Texas, we are participating in the
completion of four non-operated development projects, which we
expect to be online by mid-year. The Company also continues to
focus on prudent management of the field, such as optimizing field
compression, artificial lift enhancement, and equipment insourcing,
which is expected to improve the production profile and lower lease
operating costs.
In late 2023, we formed Magnify to in-source
specific oilfield services to improve service reliability and to
reduce overall operating expenses for the Company. Since its
inception, Magnify has generated $3.7 million of Adjusted EBITDA
with a capital investment of only $1.7 million. In 2025, we expect
to invest an additional $1.4 million of capital in Magnify and
project 2025 Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $5 million (with an
annualized run rate of $6 million by year-end). We are evaluating
additional accretive services for Magnify to service Amplify
operated assets.
In the Eagle Ford, we are participating in 14
gross (0.7 net) new development wells and two gross (0.4 net)
recompletion projects. These non-operated wells, with highly
accretive returns, are currently scheduled to be completed in the
first half of 2025.
Full-Year 2025 Guidance
The following standalone guidance is subject to
the cautionary statements and limitations described under the
"Forward-Looking Statements" caption at the end of this press
release. Amplify's 2025 guidance is based on its current
expectations regarding capital investment levels and flat commodity
prices for crude oil of $71/Bbl (WTI) and natural gas of
$3.75/MMBtu (Henry Hub), and on the assumption that market demand
and prices for oil and natural gas will continue at levels that
allow for economic production of these products. Additionally, the
Company expects to invest approximately 90% of its capital in the
first three quarters of the year primarily in connection with the
Beta development program. Upon closing of the Transaction with
Juniper, the Company will provide updated guidance to include the
acquired assets.

(2) Refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for
Amplify’s definition and use of Cash G&A, Adjusted EBITDA and
free cash flow, non-GAAP measures (cash income taxes, which are not
included in free cash flow, are expected to range between $0 - $2
million for the year) |
(3) Amplify believes that a quantitative reconciliation of such
forward-looking information to the most comparable financial
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP cannot be
made available without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation of
these non-GAAP financial measures would require Amplify to predict
the timing and likelihood of future transactions and other items
that are difficult to accurately predict. Neither of these
forward-looking measures, nor their probable significance, can be
quantified with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Accordingly, a
reconciliation of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP
measures is not provided. |

Hedging
Recently, the Company took advantage of
volatility in the futures market to add to its hedge position,
further protecting future cash flows. Amplify executed crude oil
swaps covering the second half of 2025 through year-end 2026 at a
weighted average price of $68.10. The Company also added natural
gas collars for a portion of 2027 with a weighted average floor of
$3.63 per MMBtu and a weighted average ceiling of $3.98 per
MMBtu.
The following table reflects the hedged volumes
under Amplify’s commodity derivative contracts and the average
fixed floor and ceiling prices at which production is hedged for
January 2025 through December 2027, as of March 4, 2025:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
This press release and accompanying schedules
include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA,
Adjusted net income, free cash flow, net debt, PV-10 and cash
G&A. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of
these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable
financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with
GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be
considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income,
operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities,
standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, or any
other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in
accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures may not
be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies
because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as
Amplify does.
Adjusted EBITDA. Amplify
defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus Interest expense;
Income tax expense (benefit); DD&A; Impairment of goodwill and
long-lived assets (including oil and natural gas properties);
Accretion of AROs; Loss or (gain) on commodity derivative
instruments; Cash settlements received or (paid) on expired
commodity derivative instruments; Amortization of gain associated
with terminated commodity derivatives; Losses or (gains) on sale of
assets and other, net; Share-based compensation expenses;
Exploration costs; Acquisition and divestiture related expenses;
Reorganization items, net; Severance payments; and Other
non-routine items that we deem appropriate. Adjusted EBITDA is
commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and
external users of Amplify’s financial statements, such as
investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1)
its operating performance as compared to other companies in
Amplify’s industry without regard to financing methods, capital
structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets
to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support Amplify’s
indebtedness; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall
rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Since
Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net
income or loss and because these measures may vary among other
companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release
may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted
EBITDA are net income and net cash provided by operating
activities.
Adjusted Net Income. Amplify
defines Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) adjusted for loss
(gain) on commodity derivative instruments, acquisition &
divestiture related expenses, unusual and infrequent items, and the
income tax expense or benefit of these adjustments using our
federal statutory tax rate. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) excludes the
impact of unusual and infrequent items affecting earnings that vary
widely and unpredictably, including derivative gains and losses.
This measure is not meant to disassociate these items from
management's performance but rather is intended to provide helpful
information to investors interested in comparing our performance
between periods. Adjusted net income (loss) is not considered to be
an alternative to net income (loss) reported in accordance with
GAAP.
Free cash flow. Amplify defines
free cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and
capital expenditures. Free cash flow is an important non-GAAP
financial measure for Amplify’s investors since it serves as an
indicator of the Company’s success in providing a cash return on
investment. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to free cash
flow are net income and net cash provided by operating
activities.
Net debt. Amplify defines net
debt as the total principal amount drawn on the revolving credit
facility less cash and cash equivalents. The Company uses net debt
as a measure of financial position and believes this measure
provides useful additional information to investors to evaluate the
Company's capital structure and financial leverage.
PV-10. PV-10 is a non-GAAP
financial measure that represents the present value of estimated
future cash inflows from proved oil and natural gas reserves that
are calculated using the unweighted arithmetic average
first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months, less future
development and operating costs, discounted at 10% per annum to
reflect the timing of future cash flows. The most directly
comparable GAAP measure to PV-10 is standardized measure. PV-10
differs from standardized measure in its treatment of estimated
future income taxes, which are excluded from PV-10. Amplify
believes the presentation of PV-10 provides useful information
because it is widely used by investors in evaluating oil and
natural gas companies without regard to specific income tax
characteristics of such entities. PV-10 is not intended to
represent the current market value of our estimated proved
reserves. PV-10 should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the standardized measure as defined under GAAP.
Cash G&A. Amplify defines
cash G&A as general and administrative expense, less
share-based compensation expense; acquisition and divestiture
costs; bad debt expense; and severance payments. Cash G&A is an
important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify’s investors since
it allows for analysis of G&A spend without regard to
share-based compensation and other non-recurring expenses which can
vary substantially from company to company. The GAAP measures most
directly comparable to cash G&A is total G&A expenses.
