PEDEVCO Announces 2021 Financial Results and Operations Update
HOUSTON, TX, March 11, 2022 (ACCESSWIRE) -- PEDEVCO Corp. (NYSE American: PED)(“PEDEVCO” or the “Company”), an energy company engaged in the acquisition and development of strategic, high growth energy projects in the U.S., today announced its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2021 and provided an operations update.
Key Highlights Include:
| · | Produced an average of 727 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“BOEPD”) (86% oil) in 2021, with 2021 revenue of $15.9 million increasing 97% over 2020 revenue. |
|---|---|
| · | Reported an operating loss of $1.9 million and operating expenses (inclusive of general and administrative expenses, depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses and lease operating expenses) of $19.5 million, decreasing 94% and 53%, respectively, from 2020. When not factoring in the $19.3 impairment expense of oil and gas properties in 2020, operating loss and operating expenses still decreased by 87% and 13%, respectively. |
| · | Reported net loss of $1.3 million or ($0.02) per basic diluted share outstanding, compared to a net loss of $32.7 million, or ($0.45) per diluted basic share outstanding, in 2020. |
| · | Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure (discussed in greater detail below), increased 6,822% to $6.3 million, compared to ($0.09) million in 2020. |
| · | Reported cash (including $3.3 million in restricted cash) of $29.2 million as of December 31, 2021, and zero debt. |
| · | Finalized completion operations on two new horizontal wells in the Permian Basin targeting the upper San Andres zone, with first production from both commencing in March 2022. |
| · | Participated in four non-operated horizontal wells drilled and completed in the D-J Basin in late 2021, and subsequently increased our interest in these wells in 2022 with a bolt-on acquisition. Have received and approved authorization for expenditures (AFEs) for a total of eighteen wells in the D-J Basin to be drilled and completed in 2022 at varying working interests. |
J. Douglas Schick, President of the Company, stated, “We are very pleased with the increasingly strong operational and financial results that we delivered in the past year. We not only delivered higher revenues and production than in the prior year, but we greatly reduced our operating expenses and net loss per share, generated Adjusted EBITDA of $6.3 million, and exited the year with a strong unrestricted cash position of nearly $26 million and zero debt. Combining our recent and continuing Permian Basin development and our increasing activity and participation in what we believe will be lucrative projects in the D-J Basin, we anticipate 2022 will be a transformational year for the Company in terms of production, revenue and profit growth.”
Financial Summary:
For the year ended December 31, 2021, we reported a net loss of $1.3 million, or ($0.02) per basic diluted share outstanding, compared to a net loss of $32.7 million, or ($0.45) per diluted basic share outstanding in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a $19.3 million impairment of our oil and gas properties in 2020, and a $7.8 million increase in revenue, a $1.8 million gain on sale of oil and gas properties, and a $3.0 million decrease in total operating expenses in 2021, compared to 2020.
| 1 |
|---|
We reported operating expenses in 2021 of $19.5 million, compared to $41.9 million in 2020. The decrease was primarily related to lower depletion expense in 2021, due to a decrease in our depletable base related to the impairment of our oil and gas properties at year end 2020. In 2020, we incurred a $19.3 million impairment of our oil and gas properties due to depressed oil and gas prices realized in 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure (discussed in greater detail below), increased 6,822% to $6.3 million in 2021, compared to $(0.09) million in 2020.
Cash was $29.2 million as of December 31, 2021 (including $3.3 million in restricted cash), compared with $11.3 million as of December 31, 2020 (including $3.3 million in restricted cash), which cash amount increased by $17.9 million to $29.2 million following the February 5, 2021 and October 6, 2021 closings of registered direct offerings of our common stock for $8.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively, combined with increased net revenues from operations.
Production, Prices and Revenues:
Production for the year ended December 31, 2021 was 265,302 barrels of oil equivalent (“Boe”), comprised of 228,068 barrels of oil, 192,052 million cubic feet (“Mcf”) of natural gas, and 5,225 barrels of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”). Crude oil production comprised 86% of total production in the year.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, our average realized crude oil sales price was $64.76 per barrel, average realized natural gas price was $4.70 per Mcf, and average realized NGL sales price was $36.09 per barrel. Our combined average realized sales price for the year was $59.78 per Boe, which was an increase of 88% compared with $31.88 per Boe in 2020.
Total crude oil and natural gas revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 increased $7.8 million, or 97%, to $15.9 million, compared to $8.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, due primarily to a favorable price variance of $6.7 million, coupled with a favorable volume variance of $1.1 million. During 2021, despite the natural decline of existing production, a favorable production volume variance was achieved through reduction of downtime and optimization of production efficiency on existing wells, both in our Permian Basin and D-J Basin assets. This was driven by horizontal clean outs and artificial lift conversions in the Permian Basin and improved chemical program in the D-J Basin, coupled with production increases from our participation in four non-operated wells in the D-J Basin in the latter part of 2021.
Lease Operating Expenses (“LOE”):
Total LOE for 2021 was $5.94 million compared to total LOE for 2020 of $4.44 million, an increase of $1.5 million. Multiple factors contributed to the $1.5 million increase in total LOE for 2021 versus 2020. Direct LOE in 2021 increased by $255 thousand from $3.31 million in 2020 to $3.57 million in 2021. This increase was due to increased activity levels in 2021, brought on by a more favorable commodity price environment. Production operations remained online throughout 2021, whereas 2020 saw a shut-in period of 42 days due to the pandemic induced price collapse. Workover expense increased by $694 thousand from $187 thousand in 2020 to $881 thousand in 2021. These costs were incurred to execute workovers and non-recurring lease operating expense projects that were elected to be put on hold due to the poor price environment of 2020. Other LOE expenses primarily driven by production taxes increased by $458 thousand from $957 thousand to $1.4 million. This was the result of the increased price environment in 2021 versus 2020 resulting in higher production taxes paid. There was also an increase in service and materials pricing due to supply chain limitations and increased industry demand throughout 2021. Discounted rates negotiated during the 2020 downturn have now returned to normal or higher levels due to the overall higher industry activity levels.
| 2 |
|---|
Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion (“DD&A”):
DD&A decreased from $11.34 million in 2020 to $7.38 million in 2021. Although production increased during 2021, the $4.0 million decrease in depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion in 2021 was primarily the result of a decrease in our depletable base due to the $19.3 million impairment of our oil and gas properties in 2020.
General and Administrative Expenses (“G&A”):
G&A expense (excluding share-based compensation) decreased $0.2 million from $3.92 million in 2020 to $3.76 million in 2021, primarily due to $0.5 million in costs incurred in 2020 related to a terminated exchange offer to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common units of a trust, offset by $0.3 million in accrued bonuses to officers and employees of the Company in 2021, which were subsequently paid in January 2022.
Share-based compensation, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the Statements of Operations, decreased by $0.4 million primarily due to the forfeiture of certain employee stock-based options and nonvested restricted shares due to certain voluntary employee terminations. Share-based compensation is utilized for the purpose of conserving cash resources for use in field development activities and operations.
Gain on Sale of Oil and Gas Properties:
In 2021 we sold rights to 230 net acres and interests in three non-operated wells located in the D-J Basin for net cash proceeds of $1.9 million and recognized a gain on sale of oil and gas properties of $1.8 million. We had no sales of oil and gas properties during the year ended December 31, 2020.
Interest Expense:
There was minimal interest expense in both 2020 and 2021. The accrued interest in both periods related to our Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan, which was forgiven in 2021.
| 3 |
|---|
Working Capital and Liquidity:
At December 31, 2021, our total current assets of $28.0 million exceeded our total current liabilities of $5.2 million, resulting in a working capital surplus of $22.8 million, and at December 31, 2021, we had approximately $25.9 million cash on hand (excluding $3.3 million in restricted cash) and zero debt.
Operations Update
In February of 2022, the Company completed two new horizontal San Andres wells in its Chaveroo Field in the Permian Basin, with production commencing from both in the first quarter 2022. Completion costs for these two wells is included in our 2022 capital expenditures while most of the drilling costs are included in our 2021 capital expenditures. Our expected net capital expenditures for 2022 are currently estimated to range between $35 million to $40 million. This estimate includes a range of $33 million to $38 million for drilling and completion costs on our Permian Basin and D-J Basin assets and approximately $2 million in estimated capital expenditures for electric submersible pump purchases, rod pump conversions, recompletions, well cleanouts, leasing, facilities, and other miscellaneous capital expenses. This estimate does not include anything for acquisitions or other projects that may arise but are not currently anticipated. We periodically review our capital expenditures and adjust our capital forecasts and allocations based on liquidity, drilling results, leasehold acquisition opportunities, proposals from third party operators, and commodity prices, while prioritizing financial strength and liquidity.
We expect that we will have sufficient cash available to meet our needs over the foreseeable future, including to fund the remainder of our 2022 development program, discussed above, which cash we anticipate being available from (i) projected cash flow from our operations, (ii) existing cash on hand, (iii) equity infusions or loans (which may be convertible) made available from an entity controlled by our Chief Executive Officer and director, which funding he is under no obligation to provide, (iv) public or private debt or equity financings, and (v) funding through credit or loan facilities. In addition, we may seek additional funding through asset sales, farm-out arrangements, and credit facilities to fund potential acquisitions during the remainder of 2022.
More information regarding the Company’s operating results for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, including the Company’s full financial statements and footnotes, can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed earlier today with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is available at www.sec.gov.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This earnings release discusses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA which are presented as supplemental measures of the Company’s performance. These measurements are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of oil and gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, gain on forgiveness of PPP loan, accounts payable settlements and loss on disposal of fixed asset. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because we believe they provide additional useful information to investors due to the various noncash items during the period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplements to GAAP measures of performance to provide investors with an additional financial analytical framework which management uses, in addition to historical operating results, as the basis for financial, operational and planning decisions and present measurements that third parties have indicated are useful in assessing the Company and its results of operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on debt or cash income tax payments. For example, although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. Additionally, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than PEDEVCO Corp. does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. You should not consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. The Company’s presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure. We encourage investors and others to review our business, results of operations, and financial information in their entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section titled “Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) attributable to PEDEVCO Corp., to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA”, included at the end of this release.
