EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1
General information
GeoPark Limited (the “Company”) is a company incorporated under the law of Bermuda. The Registered Office address is Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton HM11, Bermuda.
The principal activity of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group” or “GeoPark”) is the exploration, development and production for oil and gas reserves in Colombia, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador.
This condensed consolidated interim financial report was authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 13, 2020.
Basis of Preparation
The condensed consolidated interim financial report of GeoPark Limited is presented in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. It does not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The condensed consolidated interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies applied in the most recent annual financial statements.
Whenever necessary, certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to changes in presentation in the current period.
Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.
The activities of the Group are not subject to significant seasonal changes.
New and amended standards adopted by the Group
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period. The Group did not have to change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting these standards.
Estimates
The preparation of interim financial information requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Financial risk management
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: currency risk, price risk, credit risk- concentration, funding and liquidity risk, interest risk and capital risk. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements as at December 31, 2019.
The 2019 coronavirus (“COVID 19”) outbreak is currently having an indeterminable adverse impact on the world economy. While the COVID 19 has begun to have numerous worldwide effects on general commercial activity, one such effect is that the price of crude oil dropped. At this time, given the uncertainty of the lasting effect of the COVID 19 outbreak, its impact on the Group’s business cannot be determined.
The Group is continually reviewing its exposure to the current market conditions and effective immediately, adjusted the 2020 capital expenditures program but remains flexible, quickly adaptable and expanded if prices recover. The Group recently added new oil hedges increasing its price risk protection within the next six months. GeoPark maintained a strong cash position, with US$ 165,548,000 of cash and over US$ 130,700,000 in uncommitted credit lines as of March 31, 2020. For more detailed information, see Note 18.

Note 2 (Continued)
Segment Information (Continued)
The Executive Committee assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit for the period (determined as if IFRS 16 Leases has not been adopted), before net finance cost, income tax, depreciation, amortization, certain non-cash items such as impairments and write-offs of unsuccessful exploration efforts, accrual of share-based payment, unrealized result on commodity risk management contracts and other items (such as geological and geophysical expenses allocated to capitalized projects and other expenses). Operating Netback is equivalent to Adjusted EBITDA before cash expenses included in Administrative, Geological and Geophysical and Other operating expenses. Other information provided to the Executive Committee is measured in a manner consistent with that in the financial statements.

Commodity risk management contracts
The Group entered into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to oil price risk. These derivatives are zero-premium collars, fixed price or zero-premium 3 ways (put spread plus call), and were placed with major financial institutions and commodity traders. The Group entered into the derivatives under ISDA Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes, which provide credit lines for collateral posting thus alleviating possible liquidity needs under the instruments and protect the Group from potential non-performance risk by its counterparties. The Group’s derivatives are accounted for as non-hedge derivatives and therefore all changes in the fair values of its derivative contracts are recognized as gains or losses in the results of the periods in which they occur.
The following table presents the Group’s derivative contracts in force as of March 31, 2020:
| | | | | | | | | |

On November 6, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors declared the initiation of a quarterly cash distribution of US$ 0.0413 per share that was paid on December 10, 2019. On March 4, 2020, declared a quarterly cash distribution of US$ 0.0413 per share that was paid on April 8, 2020.
Buyback Program
On February 10, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a program to repurchase up to 10% of its shares outstanding or approximately 5,930,000 shares. The repurchase program begun on February 11, 2020 and will expire on December 31, 2020. These transactions have no impact on the Group’s results.
However, both the quarterly cash distribution and the share buyback program were suspended after the April 8, 2020 distribution, as part of the revised work program for 2020 to help address the recent decline in oil prices.
Stock distribution
On February 10, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a special stock distribution of 0.004 shares per share. Consequently, on March 11, 2020, 242,650 common shares were distributed to the shareholders of record at the close of business on February 25, 2020.

There were no transfers between Level 2 and 3 during the period.
The Group did not measure any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis as at March 31, 2020.
Fair values of other financial instruments (unrecognized)
The Group also has a number of financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet. For the majority of these instruments, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amounts, since the interest receivable/payable is either close to current market rates or the instruments are short-term in nature.
Borrowings are comprised primarily of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt with a short term portion where interest has already been fixed. They are measured at their amortized cost. The Group estimates that the fair value of its main financial liabilities is approximately 54% of its carrying amount including interests accrued as of March 31, 2020. Fair values were calculated based on market price for the Notes and cash flows discounted for other borrowings using a rate based on the borrowing rate and are within Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, respectively.

Capital commitments
Capital commitments are detailed in Note 33.2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2019. The following updates have taken place during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020:
Colombia
The Colombian National Hydrocarbons Agency (“ANH”) approved the termination of the E&P Contract related to the VIM-3 Block requested by GeoPark in 2018, with a remaining commitment for an amount of US$ 9,290,800, which can be transferred as investment to another block in Colombia.
The Llanos 32 Block has committed to drill 2 exploratory wells, which amount to US$ 3,350,000 at GeoPark’s working interest, before February 20, 2022.
The future investment commitments were assumed by the Group, at its working interest, as a consequence of the acquisition of Amerisur (see Note 17): | | · | | CPO-5 Block: 3D seismic acquisition, processing and interpretation (US$ 2,542,000) before July 9, 2021. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Coati Block: 3D seismic and 2D seismic acquisition (US$ 4,500,000).

On March 18, 2020, GeoPark requested ANH to suspend the exploratory period. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | PUT-12 Block: 2D seismic acquisition, reprocessing and interpretation, geochemistry and 1 exploratory well (US$ 17,920,000) before December 29, 2021. On April 7, 2020, GeoPark requested ANH to suspend the exploratory period. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | PUT-30 Block: 2D seismic acquisition and 1 exploratory well (US$ 26,929,000) before May 2, 2022. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Terecay Block: 3D seismic acquisition, processing and interpretation (US$ 2,856,000). The exploratory period is currently under suspension. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | The PUT-14 and PUT-36 Blocks are in Preliminary Phase as of the date of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. During this Preliminary Phase, GeoPark must request the Ministry of Interior for the certificate that indicates presence or no presence of indigenous communities and develop previous consultation, if applicable. Only when this process has been completed and the corresponding regulatory approvals has been obtained, the blocks will enter into Phase 1, where the exploratory commitments are mandatory. The investment commitments for the blocks over the three-years term of Phase 1 would be up to US$ 16,122,000 and US$ 20,584,000, respectively. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | Chile
On March 17, 2020, the Chilean Ministry approved the GeoPark’s proposal of modifying the outstanding commitments in the Campanario Block to 2 deeper exploratory wells, for an amount of US$ 5,002,000.
Brazil
GeoPark fulfilled the commitments that were remaining as of 31 December 2019 in the REC-T-128 Block.

Business transactions
Acquisition of Amerisur Resources Plc
On January 16, 2020, GeoPark acquired the 100% share capital of Amerisur Resources Plc, a company listed on the Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”) of the London Stock Exchange. After the acquisition the company was delisted and the name changed to Amerisur Resources Limited. The principal activities of Amerisur Resources Limited and its subsidiaries (“Amerisur”) are exploration, development and production for oil and gas reserves in Latin America. Amerisur owns thirteen production, development and exploration blocks in Colombia (twelve operated blocks in the Putumayo basin and one non-operated block in the Llanos basin) and an export oil pipeline from Colombia to Ecuador named Oleoducto Binacional Amerisur (“OBA”).
GeoPark paid a cash consideration of British Pound Sterling (”GBP”) 241,682,496 (equivalent to US$ 314,163,077) at closing date.
Before closing the transaction, the Group decided to manage its exposure to GBP fluctuation with respect to the abovementioned cash consideration. Consequently, on November 25, 2019, GeoPark entered into a “Deal Contingent Forward” (DCF) with a UK Bank, in order to anticipate any currency fluctuation in respect to the cash consideration payable in GBP. This forward contract was accounted for as a cash flow hedge and therefore all changes in its fair value until closing date were recognized in Other Reserve within Equity. At closing date, GeoPark removed that amount from the cash flow hedge reserve and included it directly in the initial cost of the acquired business.
On January 8, 2020, Amerisur announced that it had received a copy of a claim form issued in the High Court of England and Wales (the “Court”) by Leigh Day solicitors on behalf of a group of claimants (the “Claimants”) described as members of a farming community in the department of Putumayo in Colombia. The claim states that the Claimants seek compensation for economic and non-economic damages said to be caused by alleged environmental contamination and pollution caused by Amerisur’s operations in Colombia. Amerisur stated that the accusations of environmental damage referenced in the claim are being investigated by Colombian authorities and to-date have been deemed to be without merit. Amerisur further stated that it viewed the substance of the claim to be without merit. Following court hearings held in January and February 2020, an interim freezing order was imposed on Amerisur in respect to GBP 4,465,600 (equivalent to US$ 5,560,000 as of March 31, 2020) of its assets located in the United Kingdom. Amerisur has been negotiating with the Claimants in order to file a bank guarantee that will enable the Court to lift the freezing order. The Court must now schedule the case management conference, where it will decide on the timetable, disclosure and costs for the proceedings.
In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the acquisition cost was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based primarily upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. An income approach (being the net present value of expected future cash flows) was adopted to determine the fair values of the mineral interest. Estimates of expected future cash flows reflect estimates of projected future revenues, production costs and capital expenditures based on our business model. The excess of acquisition cost, if any, over the net identifiable assets acquired represents goodwill.

All values are in US Dollars.
Considering that Amerisur issues financial information on a monthly basis, the Group has considered the identified assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2019. If the purchase price allocation exercise had been carried out as of January 16, 2020, it would not have deferred significantly.
The purchase price allocation detailed above is preliminary, since the valuation process is ongoing. This process will be completed during 2020.
Note 18
Coronavirus and oil price crisis
The oil market is undergoing a significant over-supply condition that has resulted in a sharp drop in prices, with Brent falling by 50% year to date. There are two key drivers for the current market scenario. On the demand side, the sustained impact of the COVID-19 pandemic across the world and the associated containment measures (border closures, flight cancellations, social distancing, self-isolation and quarantine, large gathering restrictions and bar/restaurant closures, among others), have resulted in a sharp and sudden drop in fuel demand and hence on crude demand as well. This impact has been felt since early 2020 but has accelerated significantly in March and April. The full extent and duration of such containment measures, and their impact on the World economy are yet uncertain. The oil demand recovery hinges on the exact timing of the normalization of activity levels around the globe.
Concurrently, on the supply side, during the first week of March 2020, OPEC and non-OPEC producers (sometimes referred to as OPEC+) met in Vienna, Austria, to discuss the prospect of extending or increasing oil production cuts that had been first put in place in late 2016 and had been renewed and expanded ever since. No consensus was reached among the 24 participating countries, effectively eliminating output reduction targets as of April 1, 2020. As a consequence, Saudi Arabia announced plans to increase production to 12 million barrels per day. Other OPEC+ members and Russia also announced production increases.

Note 18 (Continued)
Coronavirus and oil price crisis (Continued)
The combined impact of sharply lower demand and growing supply have led the market into an oil significant surplus with inventories building around the world and prices dropping to levels last seen in the early 2000s.
In mid April, in the midst of significant demand destruction, OPEC+ agreed to a historical 9.7 MMbbl/d output cut. They were joined by other G-20 countries which indicated they would add 3 to 5 MMbbl/d production reductions. The compliance with these output reduction measures, alongside demand recovery, will be the key elements to balance the crude oil market in the coming months.
Although there are not specific tax benefits granted to the oil and gas sector in the jurisdictions where the Company has its business, in response to the Covid-19 crisis, many governments have granted extensions to file and pay tax duties. The Group has applied and used any extension granted, specifically in Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Peru and Spain. Likewise, certain social security charges on payroll have been also allowed to be reduced. Tax audits and procedures before fiscal authorities have been suspended until further governmental notice.
Specifically, GeoPark’s program and strategy are guided by the following principles and priorities: | | · | | Keep Team Healthy: Protect workforce and families from the pandemic and its interruptions | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Continuity of Field Operations: Ensure backup plans and teams in place to guarantee continuity of operations and business | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Preserve Cash: Adjust the work program to maintain flexibility and balance sheet strength | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Capital Allocation Discipline: Prioritize lower-risk, higher netback, and quick cash flow generating projects | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Do More for Less: Implement operating, administrative and capital cost reduction measures | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Stay Agile: Continuous monitoring of work programs and adjustment, up or down, as necessary | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Build for the Long-Term: Protect critical tools and capabilities necessary for the long-term | | --- | --- | --- | --- | Examples of the ongoing cost-cutting initiatives already implemented and providing results include: | | · | | Renegotiation of all service contracts, as well as any other type of contract | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Improvements in operational efficiency | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Temporary suspension of certain marginal fields | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Overall reduction of administrative and structure costs, starting with a voluntary salary and bonus reduction by our management team and Board of Directors, as well as general renegotiation of fees and expenses | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | · | | Temporary suspension of quarterly cash dividends and share buybacks | | --- | --- | --- | --- | Effective immediately, GeoPark adjusted the 2020 capital expenditures program to US$ 70‑80 million, approximately a 60% reduction from prior preliminary estimates (approximately US$ 180‑200 million including capital expenditures for Amerisur assets). For the whole year 2020, GeoPark has continued to secure oil production, with a minimum price of US$30 per barrel. Also, the current scenario has not impacted the approved credit lines and both Fitch and Standard & Poor’s maintained their credit ratings on our outstanding series of Notes due 2024 and 2027.

Note 19
Impairment test on Property, plant and equipment
Considering the scenario described in Note 18, the Group has addressed the process of evaluating the recoverability of its fixed assets affected by oil price drop. From an accounting point of view, this price drop constitutes an impairment indicator according to IAS 36 and, consequently, it triggers the need of assessing fair value of the assets involved against their carrying amount.
Group’s management considers as Cash Generating Unit (CGU) each of the blocks or group of blocks in which the Group has working or economic interests. The blocks with no material investment on fixed assets or with operations that are not linked to oil prices were not subject to the impairment test.
The main assumptions taken into account for the impairment tests are the ones described in Note 37 of the annual financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019. Only the following assumption were revised: i) the future oil prices have been calculated taking into consideration the updated oil price curves available in the market, provided by international advisory companies, weighted through internal estimations; and ii) the production and structure costs were estimated considering the adjusted 2020 approved budget.
The oil price curves considered Brent of prices of US$ 34.8, US$ 46.0, US$ 53.8 and US$ 59.5 per barrel for 2020 to 2023, respectively.
The following table summarizes the impairment tests performed by the Group as of March 31, 2020:
| Amounts in US '000 | Carrying amount | Impairment loss | ||
| Colombia (a) | 412,200 | — | ||
| Chile | 183,822 | (50,281) | ||
| Brazil (b) | 17,329 | — | ||
| Argentina | 50,948 | (16,205) | ||
| Peru | 37,165 | (30,995) | ||
| 701,464 | (97,481) |
All values are in US Dollars.
| | ^(a)^ | | Includes Property, plant and equipment related to the recently acquired business of Amerisur (see Note 17), which valuation process is ongoing. |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | | | ^(b)^ | | Mainly includes Property, plant and equipment related to the Manati Block, which did not present any impairment indicator as it produces mainly gas, which price is established by a supply agreement. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | If the weighted market price used for the impairment test had been 5% lower in each of the future years, with all other variables held constant, the impairment loss would have been higher by approximately US$ 21,986,000.

Subsequent events
Llanos 94 Block
On April 7, 2020, GeoPark obtained regulatory approval to acquire a 50% working interest in the Llanos 94 Block, which is in Preliminary Phase as of the date of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The investment commitment for the block over the three-years term of Phase 1 will be to acquire and reprocess existing 3D seismic and to drill three exploratory wells for US$ 9,927,000, at GeoPark’s working interest.
Prepayment agreement
In April 2020, the Colombian subsidiaries agreed to enter into an offtake and prepayment agreement with Trafigura, one of their key customers. The prepayment agreement provides GeoPark with access to up to US$ 75,000,000 in the form of prepaid future oil sales and will have a twelve months availability period. Funds committed by Trafigura will be made available to GeoPark upon request and will be repaid by GeoPark, through future oil deliveries over two years after funds are disbursed. As of the date of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, GeoPark has not withdrawn any amount from this prepayment agreement which is subject to final signature of the contracts.
