Gulfport Energy Reports First Quarter 2022 Results and Expands Common Stock Repurchase Program

OKLAHOMA CITY (May 3, 2022) Gulfport Energy Corporation (NYSE: GPOR) (“Gulfport” or the “Company”) today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and provided an update on its 2022 development plan and financial guidance.

First Quarter 2022 and Recent Highlights


Delivered total net production of 1,008 MMcfe per day
Reported $492.0 million of net loss and $235.3 million of adjusted EBITDA^(1)^
--- ---
Generated $253.7 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $116.8 million of free cash flow^(1)^
--- ---
Repurchased approximately 748 thousand shares of common stock for a total of $63 million as of May 2, 2022
--- ---
Expanded common stock repurchase program from $100 million to $200 million
--- ---

Updated Full Year 2022 Outlook


Increased expected capital expenditures to approximately $400 million^(2)^
Increased forecasted free cash flow generation to a range of $375 million to $425 million at current strip prices
--- ---

“Gulfport reported strong first quarter 2022 results, driven by the continued outperformance of our 2021 development program, excellent uptime during the winter months and the addition of five new SCOOP wells performing above expectations. As a result, we generated significant free cash flow, which allowed us to begin executing on our common stock repurchase program while maintaining a strong financial position and leverage below 1.0x,” commented Tim Cutt, CEO of Gulfport.

“Our outlook for free cash flow continues to improve, despite the growing inflationary effects that has led us to increase our capital outlook for the year. Our development program builds during the second quarter, before peaking in the third, which results in executing a high percentage of our program at higher service rates.”

“We continue to prioritize the return of capital to shareholders and are pleased to announce the expansion of our common stock repurchase program, which is now authorized up to $200 million during 2022.”

Expanded Common Stock Repurchase Program


Gulfport’s board of directors recently expanded the Company’s previously announced common stock repurchase program and Gulfport is now authorized to repurchase up to $200 million of its outstanding shares of common stock through December 31, 2022. Purchases under the repurchase program may be made from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, and will be subject to available liquidity, market conditions, credit agreement restrictions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. The repurchase program does not require the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. The Company intends to purchase shares under the repurchase program opportunistically with available funds while maintaining sufficient liquidity to fund its capital development program. The repurchase program may be suspended from time to time, modified, extended or discontinued by the board of directors at any time.


As of May 2, 2022, the Company had repurchased 748 thousand shares of common stock at a weighted-average share price of $84.26 during 2022, totaling approximately $63 million in aggregate.

Capital Investment

Financial Position and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2022, Gulfport had approximately $5.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, $25.0 million of borrowings under its New Credit Facility, $113.2 million of letters of credit outstanding and $550 million of outstanding 2026 Senior Notes.

Gulfport’s liquidity at March 31, 2022, totaled approximately $568 million, comprised of the $5.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $561.8 million of available borrowing capacity under its New Credit Facility.


In March 2022, the company paid approximately $1.5 million in cash dividends on its preferred stock.

Spring Borrowing Base Redetermination

Gulfport recently completed its spring borrowing base redetermination and on May 2, 2022, the Company entered into the first amendment to its credit agreement (the “Amendment”) governing the New Credit Facility. The Amendment, among other things, increased the borrowing base under the New Credit Facility from $850 million to $1 billion, with aggregate elected lender commitments to remain at $700 million. In addition, the Amendment eased certain requirements and limitations related to hedging, amended the covenants governing certain restricted payments and provides for the transition from a LIBOR to a SOFR benchmark. The Amendment increases Gulfport’s financial flexibility to continue to execute our business plan and provides additional clarity around our ability to return capital to shareholders.

2022 Guidance Update

Driven by increasing inflationary effects, Gulfport has updated its forecasted capital expenditures for D&C activity and expects to invest in a range of $355 million to $395 million during 2022. In addition, based on activity to date and planned activity, Gulfport has increased its forecasted leasehold and land investment to approximately $25 million during 2022.

Taking into account the previously mentioned updates in combination with a significant increase in commodity prices, Gulfport has updated its expected free cash flow (non-GAAP measure) and forecasted taxes other than income per Mcfe guidance for 2022.

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 tool 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, 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 (loss) income before income taxes less reorganization items, non-cash derivative loss, impairments of oil and gas properties, property and equipment, contractual charges on midstream disputes, non-recurring general and administrative expenses, loss from equity method investments and other items which include rig termination fees, stock-based compensation and other non-material expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, plus interest expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization and impairment of oil and gas properties, property and equipment, reorganization items, non-cash derivative loss, contractual charges on midstream disputes, non-recurring general and administrative expenses, loss from equity method investments and other items which include rig termination fees, stock-based compensation and other non-material expenses.

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 (used in) operating activities but excluded from Adjusted EBITDA less interest expense, capital expenses incurred and capital expenditures incurred. Gulfport includes a free cash flow estimate for 2022. 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.

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 expense. Gulfport includes a recurring general and administrative expense estimate for 2022. 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.
