Gulfport Energy Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Results and Expands Common Stock Repurchase Authorization by 54% to $1.0 Billion

 

OKLAHOMA CITY (November 5, 2024) Gulfport Energy Corporation (NYSE: GPOR) (“Gulfport” or the “Company”) today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and provided an update on its 2024 development plan and financial guidance.

 

Third Quarter 2024 and Recent Highlights

 

Delivered total net production of 1.06 Bcfe per day comprised of approximately 91% natural gas, 6% natural gas liquids and 3% oil and condensate

 

Produced total net oil production of 4.6 MBbl per day, an increase of 68% over second quarter 2024

 

Incurred capital expenditures of $82.5 million, below analyst consensus expectations

 

Reported $14.0 million of net loss, $61.8 million of adjusted net income(1) and $178.1 million of adjusted EBITDA(1), above analyst consensus expectations

 

Generated $189.7 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $72.6 million of adjusted free cash flow(1), above analyst consensus expectations

 

Completed opportunistic discretionary acreage acquisitions totaling $19.8 million

 

Repurchased approximately 341 thousand shares for approximately $49.9 million during the third quarter of 2024

 

Repurchased approximately 5.2 million shares for approximately $518.7 million(2) since the inception of the repurchase program

 

Expanded common stock repurchase authorization by 54% percent to $1.0 billion

 

Extended the weighted average maturity of the Company’s long-term senior notes by 3.2 years and lowered the Company’s weighted average interest rate on its long-term senior notes by approximately 1.2%

 

Completed fall borrowing base redetermination of revolving credit facility, which resulted in (1) increase in elected commitments to $1.0 billion, (2) borrowing base reaffirmed at $1.1 billion and (3) extension of the maturity to September 2028

 

Issued Annual Corporate Sustainability Report and remain committed to delivering cleaner, lower-carbon energy in a safe, environmentally responsible manner

 

Updated Full Year 2024 Outlook

 

Reducing guidance for drilling and completion capital expenditures to $325 million – $335 million, a decrease of 4% based upon the midpoint of the Company’s previously issued guidance range

 

Planning to allocate approximately $45 million to targeted discretionary acreage acquisitions, of which $38.8 million was deployed by the end of the third quarter of 2024

 

Reiterating plans to allocate substantially all 2024 adjusted free cash flow(1) towards common share repurchases after discretionary acreage acquisitions

 

 

John Reinhart, President and CEO, commented, “Gulfport’s third quarter results continued to benefit from the operating momentum that we have built throughout this year and as we announced in August, the Company expects to realize over $25 million in capital savings on our drilling and completion activities during 2024. Based on the current commodity price environment, we have elected to allocate the majority of these savings to incremental shareholder returns through our recently expanded common share repurchase program. As a result, we are lowering our full year 2024 capital guidance.”

 

Reinhart continued, “We continued to add to our attractive acreage portfolio and, through September 30, we invested $38.8 million in discretionary acreage acquisition opportunities during 2024, extending our high-quality, liquids-rich inventory by approximately one year. In addition, production and cash flows for the third quarter benefited from the turn-in-line of our four-well Utica condensate pad in Harrison County, Ohio, increasing our average daily oil production by 68% quarter-over-quarter. The wells have exhibited attractive production rates in combination with minimal pressure drawdown during the initial 90-day period. Increased production rates are now being tested to determine the optimal production profile aimed at maximizing long-term well performance. The Company also completed drilling on four additional Utica condensate wells during the third quarter and look forward to further development of our Marcellus acreage in early 2025, highlighting the liquids optionality and flexibility of our asset base as well as the continuous optimization of our development program targeting improved returns.”

 

“As we close out 2024 and expect an improving 2025 natural gas macro environment, we forecast accelerating adjusted free cash flow generation for our business, highlighting our disciplined approach to capital allocation and our focus on enhancing margins and optimizing efficiencies. Based entirely on the capital efficiency gains achieved over the past two years, we expect 2025 total base capital requirements to be in line with our updated 2024 capital guidance provided today. This capital program will continue to focus on liquids-rich development, improving margins and supporting our robust expected adjusted free cash flow generation. We will continue to focus on increasing shareholder value and believe our stock remains undervalued. As a result, we are pleased to announce a significant increase in our common stock repurchase authorization by 54% to $1.0 billion, which highlights our commitment to the return of capital to our shareholders. We plan to remain consistent in our free cash flow allocation framework and will continue to return substantially all of our adjusted free cash flow, excluding discretionary acreage acquisitions, through common stock repurchases. We believe the consistency of our committed approach to share repurchases over the past few years has delivered tremendous value to our shareholders and changes to our capital allocation framework, or other potential strategic considerations, would need to be accretive to our fundamental value and compare favorably to repurchasing our undervalued stock,” Reinhart concluded.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

 

Gulfport’s management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, and believes that they are useful tools to assess Gulfport’s operating results. Although these are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management believes that these financial measures are useful to an investor in evaluating Gulfport because (i) analysts utilize these metrics when evaluating company performance and have requested this information as of a recent practicable date, (ii) these metrics are widely used to evaluate a company’s operating performance, and (iii) we want to provide updated information to investors. Investors should not view these metrics as a substitute for measures of performance that are calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because all companies do not calculate these measures identically, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

These non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow, and recurring general and administrative expense. A reconciliation of each financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the tables below. These non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Definitions

 

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net income (loss) less non-cash derivative loss (gain), impairment of oil and natural gas properties, non-recurring general and administrative expenses comprised of expenses related to the continued administration of our prior Chapter 11 filing, stock-based compensation expenses, restructuring costs, loss on debt extinguishment, other items which include items related to our Chapter 11 filing and other non-material expenses and the tax effect of the adjustments to net income.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, plus interest expense, deferred income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, depletion, amortization, impairment and accretion, non-cash derivative loss (gain), non-recurring general and administrative expenses comprised of expenses related to the continued administration of our prior Chapter 11 filing, stock-based compensation, restructuring costs, loss on debt extinguishment and other items which include items related to our Chapter 11 filing and other non-material expenses.

 

Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as adjusted EBITDA plus certain non-cash items that are included in net cash provided by operating activities but excluded from adjusted EBITDA less interest expense, capitalized expenses incurred and capital expenditures incurred excluding discretionary acreage acquisitions. Gulfport includes an adjusted free cash flow estimate for 2024. We are unable, however, to provide a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP measure to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure because management cannot reliably quantify certain of the necessary components of such forward-looking GAAP measure. Accordingly, Gulfport is relying on the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K to exclude such reconciliation. Items excluded in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities to arrive at adjusted free cash flow include interest expense, income taxes, capitalized expenses as well as one-time items or items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated.

 

Recurring general and administrative expense is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to general and administrative expense (GAAP) plus capitalized general and administrative expense, less non-recurring general and administrative expenses comprised of expenses related to the continued administration of our prior Chapter 11 filing. Gulfport includes a recurring general and administrative expense estimate for 2024. We are unable, however, to provide a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP measure to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure because management cannot reliably quantify certain of the necessary components of such forward-looking GAAP measure. Accordingly, Gulfport is relying on the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K to exclude such reconciliation. Items excluded in general and administrative expense to arrive at recurring general and administrative expense include capitalized expenses as well as one-time items or items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. The non-GAAP measure recurring general and administrative expenses allows investors to compare Gulfport’s total general and administrative expenses, including capitalization, to peer companies that account for their oil and gas operations using the successful efforts method.
