THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–All amounts are in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise indicated:
THIRD QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $6.9 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of 296%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in production of 77% and an increase in average prices of 43%, partially offset by higher realized losses from commodity contracts in the third quarter of 2022
- Net income for the third quarter of 2022 was $9.3 million compared to net income of $0.6 million for the third quarter of 2021 due to increases in average prices and production and an unrealized gain on commodity contracts of $4.6 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Revenue, net of royalties was $9.9 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $3.9 million for the third quarter of 2021, which was an increase of 152%, as average prices increased by 43% and production increased by 77%
- Average netback from operations(2) for the third quarter of 2022 was $55.16/boe, an increase of 54% from the prior year third quarter due to higher prices in 2022. Average netback including commodity contracts(2) for the third quarter of 2022 was $49.69 per boe, an increase of 84% from the prior year third quarter
- Average production for the third quarter of 2022 was 1,702 BOEPD, an increase of 77% compared to third quarter 2021 production of 960 BOEPD. This increase is due to production from the Barnes 7-3H well and the Barnes 8-4H well
- Production and operating expenses per barrel averaged $7.77 per BOE in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $8.40 per BOE in the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of 8%. The decrease was due to increased production which reduced the per barrel fixed costs partially offset by higher production taxes due to an increase in prices
- In October 2022, the credit facility was redetermined and the borrowing base was increased from $20 million to $25 million. After the redetermination, the Company has $8.8 million of available borrowing capacity
- Adjusted EBITDA is considered a non-GAAP measure. Refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Measures” of this earnings release.
- Netback from operations and netback including commodity contracts are considered non-GAAP ratios. Refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Measures” of this earnings release.
KEI’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Wolf Regener commented:
“We are pleased that the Company generated third quarter 2022 adjusted EBITDA(1) of $6.9 million which was an increase of almost 300% from the prior year quarter. The Barnes 7-3H well and the Barnes 8-4H well, the first two wells in our 2022 drilling program, continue to exceed management’s type curve.
We are excited that we will bring three wells into production during the fourth quarter. The Company has just completed drilling the Glenn 16-3H well, which is the fifth well in our 2022 drilling program. The Emery 17-2H and Brock 9-3H wells have already been drilled. Completion operations on the Emery 17-2H well have begun, with production expected later in November. The completion operations on the Brock 9-3H well and the Glenn 16-3H well will be done concurrently immediately after the Emery 17-2H well with production expected in December.
Average production for the third quarter of 2022 was 1,702 BOEPD, an increase of 77% compared to third quarter 2021 production of 960 BOEPD due to new production from the Barnes 7-3H well and the Barnes 8-4H well.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $1.7 million for the prior year third quarter, an increase of 296%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average prices of 43% and an increase in production of 77%, partially offset by higher realized losses from commodity contracts in the third quarter of 2022.
Net income in the third quarter of 2022 was $9.3 million, compared to a net income of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increases were due to higher production and higher average prices and an unrealized gain on commodity contracts of $4.6 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Netback from operations(2) increased to $55.16 per BOE in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $35.87 per BOE in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of 54%. Netback including commodity contracts(2) for the third quarter of 2022 was $49.69 per BOE, an increase of 84% from the prior year third quarter. The 2022 increases compared to the same periods in the prior year were due to the increase in average prices.
Net revenue was $9.9 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $3.9 million for third quarter of 2021, which was an increase of 152% due to higher prices and higher production.
Operating expenses averaged $7.77 per BOE in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $8.40 per BOE in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of 8%. The decrease was due to increased production which reduced the per barrel fixed costs partially offset by higher production taxes due to an increase in prices.
In October 2022, the credit facility with BOK Financial was redetermined and the borrowing base was increased from $20 million to $25 million. After the redetermination, the Company now has $8.8 million of available borrowing capacity.”

The information outlined above is extracted from and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the related management’s discussion and analysis thereof, copies of which are available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com.
NON-GAAP MEASURES
Netback from operations, netback including commodity contracts and adjusted EBITDA (collectively, the “Company’s Non-GAAP Measures”) are not measures or ratios recognized under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP“) and do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Management of the Company believes that such measures and ratios are relevant for evaluating returns on each of the Company’s projects as well as the performance of the enterprise as a whole. The Company’s Non-GAAP Measures may differ from similar computations as reported by other similar organizations and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures and ratios as reported by such organizations. The Company’s Non-GAAP Measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income, cash flows related to operating activities, working capital or other financial measures and ratios determined in accordance with IFRS, as an indicator of the Company’s performance.
An explanation of how the Company’s Non-GAAP Measures provide useful information to an investor and the purposes for which the Company’s management uses the Non-GAAP Measures is set out in the management’s discussion and analysis under the heading “Non-GAAP Measures” which is available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com and is incorporated by reference into this earnings release.
The following is the reconciliation of the non-GAAP ratio netback from operations to net income (loss) from continuing operations, which the Company considers to be the most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the Company’s financial statements:

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before interest, taxes, depletion and depreciation and other non-cash and non-operating gains and losses. The Company considers this a key measure as it demonstrates its ability to generate cash from operations necessary for future growth excluding non-cash items, gains and losses that are not part of the normal operations of the company and financing costs.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
In this news release and the Company’s other public disclosure:
- The Company’s natural gas production is reported in thousands of cubic feet (“Mcfs“). The Company also uses references to barrels (“Bbls“) and barrels of oil equivalent (“Boes“) to reflect natural gas liquids and oil production and sales. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A Boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.
- Discounted and undiscounted net present value of future net revenues attributable to reserves do not represent fair market value.
- Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves.
- The Company discloses peak and 30-day initial production rates and other short-term production rates. Readers are cautioned that such production rates are preliminary in nature and are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery.
Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This release contains forward-looking information including information regarding the proposed timing and expected results of exploratory and development work including production from the Company’s Tishomingo field, Oklahoma acreage, expectations regarding cash flow, the Company’s reserves based loan facility, including scheduled repayments, expected hedging levels and the Company’s strategy and objectives. The use of any of the words “target”, “plans”, “anticipate”, “continue”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “should”, “believe” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Such forward-looking information is based on management’s expectations and assumptions, including that the Company’s geologic and reservoir models and analysis will be validated, that indications of early results are reasonably accurate predictors of the prospectiveness of the shale intervals, that previous exploration results are indicative of future results and success, that expected production from future wells can be achieved as modeled and that declines will match the modeling, that future well production rates will be improved over existing wells, that rates of return as modeled can be achieved, that recoveries are consistent with management’s expectations, that additional wells are actually drilled and completed, that design and performance improvements will reduce development time and expense and improve productivity, that discoveries will prove to be economic, that anticipated results and estimated costs will be consistent with managements’ expectations, that all required permits and approvals and the necessary labor and equipment will be obtained, provided or available, as applicable, on terms that are acceptable to the Company, when required, that no unforeseen delays, unexpected geological or other effects, equipment failures, permitting delays or labor or contract disputes are encountered, that the development plans of the Company and its co-venturers will not change, that the demand for oil and gas will be sustained, that the Company will continue to be able to access sufficient capital through financings, credit facilities, farm-ins or other participation arrangements to maintain its projects, that the Company will continue in compliance with the covenants under its reserves-based loan facility and that the borrowing base will not be reduced, that funds will be available from the Company’s reserves based loan facility when required to fund planned operations, that the Company will not be adversely affected by changing government policies and regulations, social instability or other political, economic or diplomatic developments in the countries in which it operates and that global economic conditions will not deteriorate in a manner that has an adverse impact on the Company’s business and its ability to advance its business strategy.
