Parex Resources Announces First Quarter Results, First Production at Arauca, and Declaration of Increased Q2 2024 Dividend

CALGARY, Alberta, May 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parex Resources Inc. (“Parex” or the “Company”) (TSX: PXT) is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, and the declaration of its increased Q2 2024 regular dividend of C$0.385 per share. All amounts herein are in United States Dollars (“USD”) unless otherwise stated.

“This year, we have made significant progress in executing our strategy and building operational momentum,” commented Imad Mohsen, President & Chief Executive Officer.

“The foundation is strong at our base Cabrestero and LLA-34 assets, where horizontal wells, waterflood, and polymer application are yielding positive results.

Parex Resources and Ecopetrol S.A. Enter into Definitive Agreements to Explore Colombia's High-Potential Llanos Foothills Trend

As previously announced April 11, 2024, Parex and its strategic partner have entered into definitive agreements to consolidate their position along the Llanos Foothills trend in alignment with Colombian government objectives to secure gas supply and support energy transition initiatives.

Parex views the agreements as having high-graded its exploration portfolio, while maintaining the Company's long-term capital allocation framework. This positions Parex for its next growth chapter, minimizing risk profile and maximizing reward potential as the Company expands into Colombia's most prolific area.

To learn more, please see the "Llanos Foothills Trend" presentation, which is available at www.parexresources.com under Investors.

Strong Current Production with FY 2024 Guidance Re-Confirmed

Second quarter-to-date estimated average production is approximately 56,000 boe/d, reflecting strong base production from Cabrestero and LLA-34, initial Arauca production, and a successful restart of Capachos.

Parex's FY 2024 average production guidance of 54,000 to 60,000 boe/d (57,000 boe/d midpoint) and capital expenditure guidance of $390 to $430 million ($410 million midpoint) remain unchanged.

Operational Update

Cabrestero and LLA-34⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾

The Cabrestero and LLA-34 blocks continue to demonstrate strong base production, producing approximately 44,000 bbl/d heavy crude oil (net) combined in Q1 2024. Although new producing well additions have slowed alongside lower capital investment, production rates have remained strong through a combination of positive waterflood response, successful exploitation and optimization activities, and in the case of Cabrestero, initial positive results from the polymer injection pilot.

At Cabrestero, average production levels have been sustained at over 14,500 bbl/d of heavy crude oil (net) since October 2023, despite no new wells being drilled on the block. This sustained production is demonstrating the low decline profile of the asset when coupled with Management's strategic focus on applying globally-proven technology.

Northern Llanos - Arauca Update⁽¹⁾

Substantial advancements at the Arauca Block have occurred in 2024. Significant drilling improvements have been realized, achieved through a blend of lessons learned as well as technology application; the Arauca-81 well is drilling at a pacesetting rate, building upon the success of the Arauca-8 drill. Initial production has begun from the block, with the Arauca-8 well currently ranked among the top oil-producing wells in Colombia.

Arauca-8 Well

• The Arauca-8 well came online in April 2024 and produced roughly 3,400 bbl/d of light crude oil (gross) during the month.
• Over the last 14 days following wellbore cleanup, natural flow has been stable at rates over 4,000 bbl/d of light crude oil (gross), limited by gas facility constraints.
• Facility constraints are limiting the monetization of associated natural gas in the Gacheta and Une reservoirs; the Company is currently working on short- and long-term facility and infrastructure solutions, including connecting to the bicentenario ("OBC") pipeline.
  

Arauca-81 Well

• Arauca-81, which is the adjacent follow-up well to Arauca-8 that is a roughly 600 meter stepout, was spud in early Q2 2024.
  

Arauca-15 Well

• The Arauca-15 sidetrack has reached total depth and is expected to come online in Q2 2024.
• Once Arauca-15 is completed, the rig is expected to move to the Arauca-12 follow-up location.

Near-Field Exploration - Small 'E' Targets Complementary to the Big 'E' Exploration Strategy

The Company's 2024 near-field exploration plan is progressing, with the first well expected to spud in Q2 2024.

Big 'E' Exploration - High-Impact Targets with Transformational Potential

Parex continues to drill its first high-potential well in the Colombian Foothills, Arantes at LLA-122⁽¹⁾, which is targeting gas and condensate. This prospect is at roughly 10,000 feet, with a target depth of approximately 18,000 feet. Initial results are expected mid-year 2024.

Parex continues to progress the pre-drill work for the Hidra well (name changed from "Hydra") at VIM-1⁽²⁾, which is roughly 15 kilometers from the Company's La Belleza discovery. The well is expected to spud mid-year 2024.

Return of Capital Update

Increased Q2 2024 Dividend

Parex’s Board of Directors have approved a Q2 2024 regular dividend of C$0.385 per share to be paid on June 17, 2024, to shareholders of record on June 10, 2024, representing a C$0.04 per share increase on an annualized basis. The Company first initiated a regular quarterly dividend at C$0.125 per share in 2021.

This quarterly dividend payment to shareholders is designated as an “eligible dividend” for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

Active Share Buyback Program Under Current Normal Course Issuer Bid

As at May 7, 2024, Parex has repurchased approximately 1.5 million shares under its current NCIB at an average price of C$22.24 per share, for total consideration of roughly C$33 million.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Advisory

This press release uses various “non-GAAP financial measures”, “non-GAAP ratios”, “supplementary financial measures” and “capital management measures” (as such terms are defined in NI 52-112), which are described in further detail below. Such measures are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as alternatives to or more meaningful than the most directly comparable GAAP measures as indicators of Parex's performance.

These measures facilitate management’s comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results in assessing its results and strategic and operational decision-making and may be used by financial analysts and others in the oil and natural gas industry to evaluate the Company’s performance. Further, management believes that such financial measures are useful supplemental information to analyze operating performance and provide an indication of the results generated by the Company's principal business activities.

Set forth below is a description of the non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP ratios, supplementary financial measures and capital management measures used in this press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Capital expenditures, is a non-GAAP financial measure which the Company uses to describe its capital costs associated with oil and gas expenditures. The measure considers both property, plant and equipment expenditures and exploration and evaluation asset expenditures which are items in the Company’s statement of cash flows for the period.

Free funds flow, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is determined by funds flow provided by operations less capital expenditures. The Company considers free funds flow to be a key measure as it demonstrates Parex’s ability to fund return of capital, such as the NCIB and dividends, without accessing outside funds and is calculated as follows:

EBITDA, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income adjusted for finance income and expenses, income tax expense (recovery) and depletion, depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA, is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as EBITDA adjusted for non-cash impairment charges, unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses), unrealized gains (losses) on risk management contracts and share-based compensation expense.

The Company considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be key measures as they demonstrates Parex’s profitability before finance income and expenses, taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization and other non-cash items. A reconciliation from net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

Non-GAAP Ratios

Operating netback per boe, is a non-GAAP ratio that the Company considers to be a key measure as it demonstrates Parex’ profitability relative to current commodity prices. Parex calculates operating netback per boe as operating netback (calculated as oil and natural gas sales from production, less royalties, operating, and transportation expense) divided by the total equivalent sales volume including purchased oil volumes for oil and natural gas sales price and transportation expense per boe and by the total equivalent sales volume excluding purchased oil volumes for royalties and operating expense per boe.

Funds flow provided by operations netback or FFO netback, is a non-GAAP ratio that includes all cash generated from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital, divided by produced oil and natural gas sales volumes. The Company considers funds flow provided by operations netback per boe to be a key measure as it demonstrates Parex’s profitability after all cash costs relative to current commodity prices.

Basic funds flow provided by operations per share or FFO per share, is a non-GAAP ratio that is calculated by dividing funds flow provided by operations by the weighted average number of basic shares outstanding. Parex presents basic funds flow provided by operations per share whereby per share amounts are calculated using weighted-average shares outstanding, consistent with the calculation of earnings per share.The Company considers basic and diluted funds flow provided by operations per share or FFO per share to be a key measure as it demonstrates Parex’ profitability after all cash costs relative to the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding.

Capital Management Measures

Funds flow provided by operations, is a capital management measure that includes all cash generated from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital. The Company considers funds flow provided by operations to be a key measure as it demonstrates Parex’s profitability after all cash costs. A reconciliation from cash provided by operating activities to funds flow provided by operations is as follows:

Working capital surplus, is a capital management measure which the Company uses to describe its liquidity position and ability to meet its short-term liabilities. Working capital surplus is defined as current assets less current liabilities.

Supplementary Financial Measures

"Oil and natural gas sales per boe" is determined by sales revenue excluding risk management contracts, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by total equivalent sales volume including purchased oil volumes.

"Royalties per boe" is comprised of royalties, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total equivalent sales volume and excludes purchased oil volumes.

"Net revenue per boe" is comprised of net revenue, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total equivalent sales volume and excludes purchased oil volumes.

"Production expense per boe" is comprised of production expense, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total equivalent sales volume and excludes purchased oil volumes.

"Transportation expense per boe" is comprised of transportation expense, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total equivalent sales volumes including purchased oil volumes.

"Dividends paid per share" is comprised of dividends declared, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the number of shares outstanding at the dividend record date.

"Production per share growth" is comprised of the Company's total oil and natural gas production volumes divided by the weighted average number of basic shares outstanding. Parex presents production per share whereby per share amounts are calculated using weighted-average shares outstanding, consistent with the calculation of earnings per share. Growth is determined in comparison to the comparative year.

Oil & Gas Matters Advisory

The term "Boe" means a barrel of oil equivalent on the basis of 6 Mcf of natural gas to 1 barrel of oil ("bbl"). Boe’s may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversation 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 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 Mcf: 1Bbl, utilizing a conversion ratio at 6 Mcf: 1 Bbl may be misleading as an indication of value.

This press release contains a number of oil and gas metrics, including, operating netbacks and FFO netbacks. These oil and gas metrics have been prepared by management and do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods and therefore such metrics should not be unduly relied upon. Management uses these oil and gas metrics for its own performance measurements and to provide security holders with measures to compare the Company's operations over time. Readers are cautioned that the information provided by these metrics, or that can be derived from the metrics presented in this news release, should not be relied upon for investment or other purposes.

Any reference in this press release to short-term production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, however such rates are not determination of the rates at which such wells will continue production and decline thereafter and readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production of Parex.

Distribution Advisory

The Company's future shareholder distributions, including but not limited to the payment of dividends and the acquisition by the Company of its shares pursuant to an NCIB, if any, and the level thereof is uncertain. Any decision to pay further dividends on the common shares (including the actual amount, the declaration date, the record date and the payment date in connection therewith and any special dividends) or acquire shares of the Company will be subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors of Parex and may depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation the Company's business performance, financial condition, financial requirements, growth plans, expected capital requirements and other conditions existing at such future time including, without limitation, contractual restrictions and satisfaction of the solvency tests imposed on the Company under applicable corporate law. Further, the actual amount, the declaration date, the record date and the payment date of any dividend are subject to the discretion of the Board.
