●

Made first quarterly term loan amortization payment of $21 million

 

●

Declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.90 per unit

 

Tom L. Ward, Mach’s Chief Executive Officer, noted, “Mach’s second quarter results reflect the continuation of our 2024 plan. A steady adherence to low leverage and disciplined cash flow management allow us to announce a distribution of $0.90 per unit for the period. Our Company was founded on a distribution-focused strategy, and this quarter’s cash distribution demonstrates Mach’s commitment to rewarding its unitholders while navigating the challenges of the market.”

 

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

 

Mach reported total revenue and net income of $240 million and $40 million in the second quarter of 2024, respectively. Additionally, during the second quarter, the average realized price was $79.27 per barrel of oil, $1.33 per Mcf of natural gas, and $23.83 per barrel of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”). These prices exclude the effects of derivatives.

 

At the end of the second quarter, Mach had a cash balance of $145 million and a pro forma net-debt-to- Adjusted-EBITDA ratio of 0.9x.

 

Second Quarter 2024 Operational Results

 

During the second quarter of 2024, Mach achieved average oil equivalent production of 89.3 Mboe/d, which consisted of 23% oil, 53% natural gas and 24% NGLs. Also, for the second quarter of 2024, Mach’s production revenues from oil, natural gas, and NGLs sales totaled $232 million, comprised of 65% oil, 15% natural gas, and 20% NGLs.

 

 

The Company spud 12 gross (10 net) operated wells and brought online 14 gross (12 net) operated wells in the second quarter of 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had 5 gross (4 net) operated wells in various stages of drilling and completion.

 

Mach’s lease operating expense in the second quarter of 2024 was $46 million, or $5.72 per Boe. Mach incurred $24 million, or $2.93 per Boe, of gathering and processing expenses in the second quarter of 2024. Furthermore, during the second quarter of 2024, production taxes as a percentage of oil, natural gas, and NGL sales were approximately 4.9%, midstream operating profit was approximately $5 million, general and administrative expenses—excluding equity-based compensation of $2 million—was $9 million, and interest expense was $27 million.

 

In the second quarter of 2024, Mach’s total capital expenditures—excluding acquisitions—were $46 million, including $41 million of upstream capital and $5 million of other capital (including midstream and land).

 

Distributions

 

Mach announced today that the board of directors of its general partner declared a quarterly cash distribution for the second quarter of 2024 of $0.90 per common unit. The quarterly cash distribution is to be paid on September 10, 2024, to common unitholders of record as of the close of trading on August 27, 2024.

 

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.

Mach will host a conference call and webcast at 8:00 a.m. Central (9:00 a.m. Eastern) on Wednesday, August 14, 2024, to discuss its second quarter 2024 results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Adjusted EBITDA

 

We include in the tables below the supplemental non-GAAP financial performance measure Adjusted EBITDA and provide our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, our most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (1) interest expense, net, (2) depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, (3) unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, (4) equity-based compensation expense, (5) credit losses, and (6) (gain) loss on sale of assets.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others, to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and our results of operation from period to period and against our peers without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our operating performance. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax burden, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual items. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

Cash Available for Distribution

 

Cash available for distribution is not a measure of net income or net cash flow provided by or used in operating activities as determined by GAAP. Cash available for distribution is a supplemental non-GAAP financial performance measure used by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others, to assess our ability to internally fund our exploration and development activities, pay distributions, and to service or incur additional debt. We define cash available for distribution as net income less (1) interest expense, net, (2) depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, (3) unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, (4) equity-based compensation expense, (5) credit losses, (6) (gain) loss on sale of assets, (7) settlement of asset retirement obligations, (8) cash interest expense, net (9) development costs, and (10) change in accrued realized derivative settlements. Development costs include all of our capital expenditures, other than acquisitions. Cash available for distribution will not reflect changes in working capital balances. Cash available for distribution is not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or net cash provided by or used in operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our financial performance and liquidity. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to cash available for distribution are net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Cash available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or net cash provided by operating activities.
