Ranger Oil Corporation Reports Third Quarter Results

Exceeded high-end of sales volumes guidance with D&C capital expenditures within guidance
Closed additional bolt-on acquisitions and updated share repurchase progress
Declares dividend of $0.075/share
Increased full-year 2022 sales volumes outlook and updated D&C capital expenditure guidance

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / November 2, 2022 / Ranger Oil Corporation ("Ranger" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:ROCC) today announced financial and operational results for the third quarter of 2022. A conference call and webcast to discuss the results is planned for 11 a.m. ET on November 3, 2022. Participation details can be found in this release.

Third Quarter Highlights:

  • Exceeded high end of guidance for total sales volumes at 42.6 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day ("Mboe/d"); crude oil sales exceeded the mid-point of guidance at 30.7 thousand barrels per day ("Mbbl/d")
  • Posted net income of $227.6 million and adjusted net income1 of $125.0 million
  • Generated adjusted EBITDAX1 of $208.7 million and net cash provided by operating activities of $190.3 million
  • Produced pro forma adjusted free cash flow1 of $57.8 million
  • Drilling and completion ("D&C") capital expenditures were in-line with guidance at $151.9 million, of which $3.4 million was associated with incremental capital due to D&C operations completed ahead of schedule
  • Increased expectations for full-year total sales volumes to 41.1 - 41.5 Mboe/d and oil sales volumes to 29.4 - 29.7 Mbbl/d
  • Year-to-date, Ranger closed eight transactions in the Eagle Ford totaling approximately $139 million, subject to customary post- closing adjustments. The transactions added 2 Mboe/d of low decline production, approximately 20,000 net acres, and over 60 identified gross drilling locations with further potential development opportunities being reviewed
  • Including the future payment of the third quarter dividend declared today, approximately $80 million will have been returned to shareholders through Ranger's share repurchase and dividend programs since May 2022. As of November 1, 2022, 5% of the Company's total common stock outstanding, or about 2.1 million shares of Class A common stock, has been repurchased (average repurchase price: $34.73 per share)
  • Continued strengthening of capital structure with a leverage ratio2 of approximately 0.75x at quarter end

"2022 is proving to be another incredible year for Ranger Oil," said President and CEO, Darrin Henke. "Our team navigated a challenging macro-environment and has created significant long-term value for our shareholders. Our continued capital discipline and focus on high-return development drilling allowed us to generate significant free cash, expand our cash return framework and significantly strengthen our capital structure. In addition, we captured a number of accretive bolt-ons this year that deepened our inventory of top-tier development projects. In the third quarter, we again achieved higher than expected sales volumes with D&C capital expenditures within guidance and were able to increase our full-year sales volumes outlook."

Henke continued, "As we turn to the fourth quarter, we have a number of exciting opportunities to continue Ranger's strong trajectory of growing value per share, while simultaneously returning cash to shareholders and strengthening the balance sheet. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, in addition to our third rig, we were able to acquire significant additional working interest in upcoming pads immediately ahead of the drill bit as well as partner with a separate offset operator on a large shared pad development to maximize capital efficiency. These opportunities set Ranger up for a very strong start to 2023, where we expect to reach over 50 Mboe/d in the first half of the year."

Third Quarter 2022 Financial and Operating Results

Ranger reported third quarter 2022 net income of $227.6 million. Adjusted net income1 was $125.0 million for the third quarter of 2022. Ranger posted adjusted EBITDAX1 of $208.7 million, net cash provided by operating activities of $190.3 million and generated pro forma adjusted free cash flow1 of $57.8 million during the quarter.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were $126.6 million, or $32.30 per boe. Lease operating expenses ("LOE") for the third quarter of 2022 were $24.1 million, of which $2.7 million was due to incremental high rate of return workover activity anticipated to contribute to increased production in the fourth quarter of 2022 and beyond. Adjusted direct operating expenses1 were $58.6 million, or $14.94 per boe, in the third quarter of 2022 which consist of LOE, gathering, processing and transportation expenses ("GPT"), production and ad valorem taxes, and adjusted cash general and administrative expenses1 ("G&A"), excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") and significant special charges. A breakdown of operating expenses, as well as guidance for the remainder of the year, can be found in additional tables included in this release.

Total sales volumes for the third quarter of 2022 were above the high end of guidance at 42.6 Mboe/d (72% crude oil/87% liquids). Oil sales during the period were 30.7 Mbbl/d, above the mid-point of guidance.

Shareholder Return Program

Ranger has a well-defined framework to return cash to shareholders. Highlights are below:

  • As of November 1, 2022, Ranger has repurchased approximately 2.1 million shares of its Class A common stock, or 5% of total equity outstanding, at an average price of approximately $34.73 per share. Total shares of common stock outstanding as of November 1, 2022 were approximately 41.6 million3.
  • The Board declared a cash dividend for the third quarter of $0.075 per share of Class A common stock payable November 28, 2022 to Class A common stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 16, 2022.

2022 Outlook

With the recent decision to operate a third drilling rig through year-end 2022, the Company expects that its D&C capital expenditures for the fourth quarter will be $150 - $170 million, including approximately $25 million of capital expenditures related to non-operated development and higher working interests due to acquisitions in the fourth quarter as discussed above. Ranger's decision to continue with a three rig program in 2023 will be based on the service cost environment, the rig's performance, market conditions, and capital allocation plans for next year.

With continued strong performance from recent completions, the Company increased expectations for full-year sales volumes to 41.1 - 41.5 Mboe/d, which is 4% above midpoint of guidance provided in March 2022 of 39.75 Mboe/d.

The table below sets forth the Company's updated operational and financial guidance for the fourth quarter and full-year 2022:

Cautionary Statements Regarding Guidance and Other Matters

The estimates and guidance discussed in this release are based on assumptions of current and future capital expenditure levels, prices for oil, NGLs, and natural gas, available liquidity, indications of supply and demand for oil, well results, and operating costs. This release does not constitute any form of guarantee or assurance that the matters indicated will be achieved. While we believe these estimates and the assumptions on which they are based are reasonable as of the date on which they are made, they are inherently uncertain and are subject to, among other things, significant business, economic, operational, and regulatory risks, and uncertainties, some of which are not known as of the date of the statement. Guidance and estimates, and the assumptions on which they are based, are subject to material revision. Actual results may differ materially from estimates and guidance. Further, expectations regarding the announced share repurchase program are subject to a variety of factors, including among other things, our earnings, liquidity, capital requirements, financial condition, management's assessment of the intrinsic value of the Class A common stock, the market price of the Company's Class A common stock, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, compliance with the Company's debt and other agreements, applicable legal requirements and other factors deemed relevant. In connection with any dividend, Ranger's operating subsidiary will also make a corresponding distribution to its common unitholders.

CERTAIN NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Readers are reminded that non-GAAP measures are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, or superior to financial measures prepared according to GAAP. They should be evaluated in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. It should be noted as well that our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

Reconciliation of GAAP "Realized prices" to Non-GAAP "Realized prices, including effects of derivatives, net"

We present our realized prices for crude oil, natural gas and aggregate (including crude oil, NGLs and natural gas), as adjusted for the effects of derivatives, net as we believe these measures are useful to management and stakeholders in determining the effectiveness of our price-risk management program that is designed to reduce the volatility associated with our operations. Realized prices for crude oil, NGLs, natural gas and aggregate, as adjusted for the effects of derivatives, net, are supplemental financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The following table presents the calculation of our non-GAAP realized prices for crude oil, NGLs, natural gas and aggregate, as adjusted for the effects of derivatives, net and reconciles to realized prices for crude oil, NGLs, natural gas and aggregate determined in accordance with GAAP:

Reconciliation of GAAP "Net income (loss)" to Non-GAAP "Adjusted net income"

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income (loss) adjusted to include net realized settlements of derivatives and exclude the effects, net of income taxes, of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, impairments of oil and gas properties, the effects of gains and losses on the sales of assets, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, acquisition, integration and strategic transaction costs, and organizational restructuring costs, including severance. We believe that non-GAAP adjusted net income provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance. This information facilitates management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical operating results as well as to the operating results of our competitors. Since management finds this measure to be useful, the Company believes that our investors can benefit by evaluating both non-GAAP and GAAP results. Adjusted net income is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income (loss).

Reconciliation of GAAP "Net income (loss)" to Non-GAAP "Adjusted EBITDAX" - Actual

Adjusted EBITDAX represents net income (loss) before (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, interest expense, income taxes, impairments of oil and gas properties, depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense, further adjusted to include the net commodity realized settlements of derivatives and exclude the effects of gains and losses on sales of assets, non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, and special items including acquisition, integration and strategic transaction costs, and organizational restructuring costs, including severance. We believe this presentation is commonly used by investors and professional research analysts for the valuation, comparison, rating, investment recommendations of companies within the oil and gas exploration and production industry. We use this information for comparative purposes within our industry. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDAX as defined by Ranger Oil may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) and other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as operating income or cash flows from operating activities. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of Ranger Oil's results as reported under GAAP.

Reconciliation of GAAP "Operating expenses" to Non-GAAP "Adjusted direct operating expenses and Adjusted direct operating expenses per boe"

Adjusted direct operating expenses and adjusted direct operating expenses per boe are supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that exclude certain non-recurring expenses and non-cash expenses. We believe that the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted total direct operating expense per boe is useful to investors because it provides readers with a meaningful measure of our cost profile and provides for greater comparability period-over-period.

Definition and Explanation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes illustrates our ability to generate cash flows from our business that are available to be returned to our providers of financing capital. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities (a GAAP measure), adjusted for: gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, cash and deposits paid for acquisitions (net of cash acquired), cash paid for capital expenditures, cash proceeds from sales of assets, (discounts) premiums associated with proceeds of debt offerings, assumption (repayments) of acquired and other debt, proceeds from noncontrolling interests (net of transaction/issuance costs paid), share repurchases, dividends, withholding taxes for share-based compensation and debt issuance costs paid. Pro Forma Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted Free Cash Flow and includes changes to beginning Net debt to incorporate the effects of the Lonestar Acquisition and distributions and dividends, share repurchases and cash and deposits paid for acquisitions. We believe Adjusted Free Cash Flow is commonly used by investors and professional research analysts for the valuation, comparison, rating, investment recommendations of companies in many industries. Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Pro Forma Adjusted Free Cash Flow should be considered as a supplement to net income as a measure of performance and net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

  2. Net debt at the beginning of the period has been adjusted for the net cash effects of the Lonestar Acquisition. See the following table for adjustments to Net debt.

Net Debt

Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as total principal amount of long-term debt, excluding unamortized discount and debt issuance costs, less cash and cash equivalents. Long-term debt excludes non-recourse mortgage debt assumed with the Lonestar Acquisition. The most comparable financial measure to Net debt under GAAP is principal amount of long-term debt. Net debt is used by management as a measure of our financial leverage. Net debt should not be used by investors or others as the sole basis in formulating investment decisions as it does not represent the Company's actual indebtedness.
