HOUSTON, Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolution Petroleum Corporation (NYSE MKT: EPM) today reported financial and operating highlights for its first quarter of fiscal 2016 ended September 30, 2015 (the "current quarter"), with comparisons to the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2015 (the "prior quarter") and the quarter ended September 30, 2014 (the "year-ago quarter"). The results for the year-ago quarter did not include the Company's reversionary working interest in the Delhi Field, which became effective November 1, 2014, so most comparisons will focus on sequential results from the prior quarter.
Highlights for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2015
Net income increased to $2.9 million, or $0.09 per share, for the quarter.
Net production increased to 1,698 net barrels of oil per day ("BOPD") from the Delhi field, a 2% increase from the prior quarter. Gross production increased to 6,423 BOPD from 6,328 BOPD in the prior quarter.
Average realized oil prices were $47 per barrel, down from $59 in the prior quarter, resulting in Delhi revenues of $7.3 million, down from $9.0 million in the prior quarter. Realized hedge gains added $0.9 million, or $5.55 per barrel, which are reported as other income and not as revenues.
Net working capital increased to $16.3 million from $14.4 million in the prior quarter on the strength of solid operating results, a $1.5 million refund from the carryback of stock option deductions to prior year's Louisiana state taxes paid and insurance proceeds.
We distributed $1.8 million of cash dividends to our common and preferred shareholders in the current quarter and returned $1.0 million of cash to shareholders with the open market repurchases of common stock.
Capital spending in the Delhi field was $2.6 million, primarily directed towards the NGL plant. Approximately $18.0 million remains to be expended prior to the plant's startup, which is scheduled for next summer.
Randy Keys, President and CFO, said: "Despite lower oil prices, we were able to generate very strong earnings of $0.09 per common share in the quarter. We were aided by unrealized hedge gains of $1.1 million (an estimated $0.7 million after tax, or $0.02 per common share) and other income of $1.1 million from insurance proceeds related to the pre-reversion fluid release event (an estimated $0.7 million after tax, or $0.02 per common share.) Without the benefit of these items, net income would have been $0.05 per common share. Our hedging program has been very beneficial in this price environment as we realized derivative gains of $0.9 million in the quarter. Work on the Delhi NGL plant is continuing and it is scheduled to be online in the summer of 2016. The NGL plant is expected to significantly increase liquid production volumes from the field, provide substantial volumes of methane to power field operations and enhance the efficiency and output of the CO2 flood. Importantly, we have seen operating costs in the Delhi Field decline to $16.37 per barrel, as the operator's cost control efforts continue to show positive results. Our strong balance sheet and working capital position of $16.3 million continue to serve us well."
Robert Herlin, Chairman and CEO, added: "Unlike the majority of our peers, we remain in excellent financial condition and posted net income and earnings per share for the quarter, above expectations, and ended the quarter free of debt. We believe our financial strength gives us the flexibility to take advantage of opportunities that may come our way in this environment, while maintaining our cash dividend to common shareholders. Looking to the future, we are positive about the prospects for the Company, including our ability to continue our growth plan, create long-term value and return increasing amounts of cash to shareholders."
Delhi Field Operations
Financial results for the Delhi Field were positively impacted by increased production levels, which offset the lower oil prices in the current quarter. Net production increased to 1,698 BOPD from 1,673 BOPD in the prior quarter, while average prices dropped from $59 per barrel to $47. Our realized hedge gains added the equivalent of $5.55 per barrel to this lower oil price. We had previously hedged 1,100 BOPD, an estimated two-thirds of our production, at a West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") average floor price of $55 per barrel for the six month period ending December 31, 2015. In early October, the Company entered into a fixed price swap contracts for 1,100 BOPD at a WTI price of $51.45 per barrel, for the three month period ending March 31, 2016. In addition to the WTI price on our hedged volumes, we continue to receive a market price premium for our Delhi production, which is sold as Louisiana Light Sweet ("LLS").
Field operating expenses were $16.37 per barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE"), below previous levels, resulting primarily from lower purchased CO2 costs and other operating cost savings. In the current quarter, our net share of lease operating expenses was approximately $2.6 million, of which $1.4 million was related to CO2 purchases and transportation expenses. Total CO2 costs (net) were down 22% from the prior quarter as a result of both lower oil prices and lower purchased CO2 volumes. Our purchased CO2 costs are directly indexed to realized oil prices received at Delhi.
As of September 30, 2015, we have incurred approximately $6.6 million of cumulative capital costs for the NGL plant, out of a total estimated commitment of $24.6 million. We expect the remaining obligation of $18.0 million will be incurred over the next nine to twelve months prior to completion, which is scheduled for the summer of 2016. The expenditures during calendar 2015, which were estimated to be approximately $14.0 to $15.0 million, are primarily related to engineering, procurement and off-site fabrication of major components of the plant. Installation in the field is expected to commence in the first quarter of calendar 2016.
Gas Assisted Rod Pump (GARP®) Services
During the current quarter, we completed a GARP® installation in the Eagle Ford play for a new third-party customer. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we completed an installation for another new customer in the Barnett Shale. Initial results for both installations look promising. The earlier installation for a customer in the Permian Basin was recently removed due to unrelated production difficulties. Despite the challenging market environment and overall industry conditions, we are diligently working to advance the adoption of the technology and are pleased to have completed these new installations for large operators in new basins. We are also reviewing the best options for accelerating commercial development.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2015, the Company had total liquidity of $21.3 million, which includes $16.3 million of working capital and $5.0 million of availability under our unsecured revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2015, the Company remained debt-free. We believe that current liquidity combined with expected operating cash flows will be sufficient to fund the Company's expected capital requirements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 and allow us to continue our common stock dividend program. At the present time, we do not have any committed capital spending obligations beyond the current fiscal year.
Other Matters
In late September 2015, we received a $1.5 million refund of cash taxes paid to the State of Louisiana during the three years ended June 30, 2014. The refund of taxes resulted from the carryback of income tax losses which arose from the exercise of stock options and incentive warrants in November 2013. For financial reporting purposes, this benefit does not affect our provision for income taxes, but is instead recorded as an increase in additional-paid-in-capital.
In mid-October, in the case of John C. McCarthy, et al versus Evolution Petroleum Corp, et al, related to our purchase of royalty interests in the Delhi Field in 2006, the Supreme Court of Louisiana overturned the appellate court and reinstated the district court's decision to dismiss the case with prejudice.
Expected Tax Treatment of Dividends
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, 100% of cash dividends on preferred shares were treated as qualified dividend income. Approximately 86% of cash dividends on common shares were treated as a return of capital to our stockholders and the remainder of 14% was treated as qualified dividend income. Based on our current projections for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016, we expect 100% of preferred and common dividends to be treated as qualified dividend income.

Fiscal 2016 Capital Budget and Financial Outlook
With the Delhi Field operator's determination that reversion of our 23.9% working interest and 19.0% net revenue interest in Delhi occurred effective November 1, 2014, we began funding our share of capital expenditures in the field as of that date. From the date of reversion through June 30, 2015, our net share of capital expenditures was approximately $10.4 million, including $5.0 million for the NGL recovery plant. Capital expenditures also included the re-drilling of a production well, testing and strengthening of well bore integrity in various wells in the field, including previously plugged wells, and drilling and completion of monitoring wells. The after-tax present value of our proved reserves remains far in excess of our cost basis.
Projected capital expenditures over the next fiscal year are currently expected to total approximately $19.6 million net to our working interest for the balance of the costs of the NGL plant. Based on our current marketing and business plans, we expect that our capital requirements for artificial lift technology operations will be relatively minor over the next fiscal year.
Our liquidity is highly dependent on the realized prices we receive for our production, net of our hedges. In June 2015, we initiated a crude oil price protection program for approximately two-thirds of our expected production that provides an average floor price of $55.00 per barrel for the remainder of the calendar year. At June 30, 2015, the Company had total liquidity of $19.4 million, which includes $14.4 million of working capital and $5.0 million of availability on our unsecured revolving credit facility, and we remained debt-free. We believe that our current liquidity combined with expected operating cash flows will be sufficient to fund the Company's capital requirements for fiscal year 2016.

Delhi Field Operations
Gross production at Delhi in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 was 6,328 barrels of oil per day ("BOPD"), up 2% from the third fiscal quarter's 6,203 BOPD. Production volumes net to the Company were 1,677 BOPD and 1,644 BOPD, respectively. Production from the field is expected to average in excess of 6,000 BOPD until we add projected volumes from the NGL extraction plant in the second half of calendar 2016, and complete the roll-out of the remaining phases of the CO2 project in subsequent years. We expect production growth to continue well into the next decade.
Our ownership in the Delhi field project has served the company well in this challenging industry environment. Oil production from the field receives favorable Light Louisiana Sweet crude oil pricing, which continues to trade at a significant premium to the industry standard WTI price, and our low pipeline transportation costs are also a competitive advantage. Additionally, our cost of purchased CO2 in the Delhi field, the majority component of operating costs, is mostly driven by the price of oil in the field, therefore our major operating cost has dropped substantially with the price of crude. We have also seen reductions in other field operating costs as the operator has focused on initiatives to lower field operating expenses.
The plans and purchases for construction of the NGL plant are underway and we are anticipating startup next summer. The plant has a total estimated cost of $24.6 million net to Evolution, of which approximately $5.0 million had been incurred as of June 30, 2015. Our June 30, 2015 reserves report includes projected peak proved production gross volumes of approximately 1,850 barrels of liquids per day from the NGL plant over the next five years, and peak probable gross volumes of an additional 1,140 barrels of liquids per day later next decade. As previously announced, the methane recovered by the plant will be used to generate electricity and other power requirements for the field, which will substantially reduce field operating costs. The NGL plant is also expected to increase the efficiency of the CO2 flood due to the removal of methane from the recycle gas stream, and our reserves report reflects incremental gross crude oil production volumes of up to 500 BOPD once the plant is operational.
Of particular importance, remaining future development costs amount to only $9.34 per BOE for proved undeveloped reserves and $4.89 for probable undeveloped reserves, making continued development
3
economical even at current oil prices. Looking forward, the timing of plans for continued development of the eastern part of the Delhi field is dependent on the plans for capital allocation by the partners. We continue to believe that these high quality and economically viable projects will be executed as planned, subject to oil price volatility.

Evolution Petroleum Announces Financial Results for Fiscal Year 2015
HOUSTON, Sept. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolution Petroleum Corporation (NYSE MKT: EPM) today reported financial and operating highlights for its fiscal year and fourth quarter ended June 30, 2015, with comparisons to fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2015 (the "prior quarter") and the quarter ended June 30, 2014 (the "year-ago quarter"), as well as the last fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
Highlights:
•
Generated net income of $1.7 million or $0.05 per diluted share, on record revenues of $9.1 million in the current quarter;
•
Generated net income of $4.3 million or $0.13 per diluted share, in the fiscal year;
•
Returned $10.5 million to shareholders in the form of cash dividends during fiscal 2015;
•
Initiated a common stock repurchase program of up to $5.0 million;
•
Commenced construction of a natural gas liquids ("NGL") recovery plant at Delhi;
•
Maintained our strong financial position and debt-free balance sheet.
Randy Keys, President and Chief Financial Officer, said: "We are pleased to report net income for the fourth consecutive fiscal year, despite significantly lower oil prices in fiscal 2015 and a challenging industry environment. During the quarter, we entered into derivative transactions to provide the Company with downside protection on two-thirds of our estimated production for the remainder of the calendar year at an average West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") price of $55 per barrel.
"Our Delhi field continues to add value to the Company as the reversion of our 23.9% working interest became effective on November 1, 2014. As previously announced, our proved reserve volumes totaled 12.4
1
MMBOE and our high quality probable reserves totaled 9.43 MMBOE as of June 30, 2015. The construction of the NGL plant at Delhi is underway and we are anticipating start-up in the second half of calendar 2016. We expect a significant increase in production volumes and cash flow once the plant is operational and the recovered methane is utilized to drive down operating costs in the field."

Delhi Field - Enhanced Oil Recovery Project
Gross production at Delhi in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 averaged 6,203 BOPD, a increase of 1% from the year-ago quarter, and a 5% increase from the prior quarter. Net production averaged 1,640 BOPD, a 259% increase from the year-ago quarter, and a 38% increase from the prior quarter. Gross production continues to be positively impacted by a replacement well that was redrilled and placed into production in January 2015.
In the quarter ending March 31, 2015, our net share of the joint interest billed lease operating expenses was approximately $2.9 million, of which $1.6 million is related to CO2 purchases and transportation expenses. Under our contract with the operator, purchased CO2 is priced at 1% of the oil price in the field per thousand cubic feet (“Mcf”) plus transportation costs of $0.20 per Mcf. Total average CO2 costs per month are down 36% from the prior quarter monthly as result of both lower oil prices and lower purchased CO2 volumes in the quarter. Purchased CO2 volumes in the prior quarter were significantly higher than the expected rates going forward of 90,000 to 95,000 Mcf per day. On a total BOE basis, average CO2 costs were down 29% from $15.33 BOE in the prior quarter to $10.82 BOE, primarily due to increased working interest volumes and lower realized oil prices in the current quarter. Our purchased CO2 costs are directly correlated with realized oil prices.
In late February 2015, we signed an authorization for expenditure for construction of a natural gas liquids ("NGL") recovery plant in the Delhi field, which will extract both NGL and methane from the field. In addition to the value of these hydrocarbon products, according to the operator, the increased purity of the CO2 stream re-injected into the field should result in significant operational benefits to the CO2 flood and potentially increase oil production from existing wells and/or accelerated recovery of oil reserves. The NGL plant has an estimated gross cost of $103 million ($24.6 million net to the Company) projected to be expended through the summer of 2016. Recovered methane will be utilized to generate much, if not all, of the electricity for the operation of the gas plant and other CO2 field operations. This will substantially reduce operating costs for both the existing field operation and the new plant operating costs. The plant is projected by the operator to produce up to approximately 2,000 barrels of NGL's per day when in full operation and NGL volumes potentially may be higher based on performance and yield.
On January 26, 2015, Denbury notified us it had withheld and suspended 2.891545% of our overriding royalty revenue interest in the field for the months of November and December 2014, as previously disclosed. This unilateral suspension of a portion of our overriding royalties by the operator was made without consultation with the Company and, we believe, was without legal basis. On February 26, 2015, we entered into an agreement under which Denbury agreed to reverse the previously disclosed suspension of our overriding royalty interest revenues and release to Evolution amounts previously suspended totaling approximately $712,000. Denbury further agreed not to suspend any future revenues attributable to any of our revenue interests, except under very limited circumstances. This agreement does not settle any of the outstanding litigation
matters with Denbury, including their counterclaim related to the net revenue interest conveyed in the 2006 Purchase and Sale Agreement.

Evolution Petroleum Announces Share Repurchase Program

HOUSTON, May 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolution Petroleum Corporation (NYSE MKT: EPM) ("Evolution" or the "Company") announced today that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program covering up to $5,000,000 of the Company's common stock. Under the program's terms, shares may be repurchased only on the open market and in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The timing and amount of repurchases will depend upon several factors, including financial resources and market and business conditions. There is no fixed termination date for this repurchase program, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Payment for shares repurchased under the program will be funded using the Company's working capital. The Company intends to retire the repurchased shares.
Robert Herlin, Chief Executive Officer, said: "This share repurchase program underscores our confidence in the quality of our assets and ability to generate cash flow across business cycles. Our cash flow forecast through fiscal 2016 and current liquidity exceed our expected financial needs, including projected capital expenditures in the Delhi field, continued commercialization of our artificial lift technology and our current rate of common dividends. At recent market price levels, we consider our common stock to be undervalued and believe that repurchasing shares is a responsible way to return excess cash back to shareholders.
"It is notable that we are not leveraging the balance sheet with debt and increasing our financial risk in this historically cyclical industry to fund the program, and we retain the full flexibility of our undrawn credit facility. We considered the option of increasing our regular common stock dividend, but determined that the current uncertainty of oil prices and our capital commitments for the NGL plant in the Delhi field made this option less attractive than the repurchase program. We look forward to a possible increase in the common stock dividend during calendar 2016 when increased cash flow from the NGL plant should give us greater financial resources and better long-term visibility with respect to our financial performance."
Randy Keys, President and CFO, added: "We do not believe our current stock price adequately reflects the exceptionally long life and quality of our reserves and the predictability of our production profile, nor does it reasonably account for the near term catalysts for growth from the NGL plant and the expansion of the CO2 flood in the eastern part of the field. In addition, we have a strong balance sheet with no debt. Based on our most recent reserves report, production from the Delhi field is forecast to increase and, as a result, so is the expected PV-10* value of the field over the next several years while simultaneously generating significant free cash flow.
"The Delhi field is approximately 70% developed with substantially all the major infrastructure, including the CO2 pipeline, compression facilities and the majority of the CO2 injection and production wells, already in place. Based on the same reserves report, the incremental cost to complete the NGL plant and expand the CO2 flood to the eastern part of the field is estimated to be approximately $8.50 per barrel for remaining development of the proved reserves. The incremental capital cost associated with our probable reserves is only $3.30 per barrel since approximately 45% of our probable reserves are already developed, and there is no incremental capital cost associated with our possible reserves as they are incremental to previous capital expenditures. It is notable that the probable and possible reserves are associated largely with recovering more oil already in place in and around the existing wellbores."

* PV-10 of proved reserves is a pre-tax non-GAAP measure reconciled to the after-tax Standardized Measure of Future Net Cash Flows below. We believe that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure of PV-10 provides useful and relevant information to investors because of its wide use by analysts and investors in evaluating the relative monetary significance of oil and natural gas properties, and as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our reserves to other companies' reserves. We also use this pre-tax measure when assessing the potential return on investment related to oil and natural gas properties and in evaluating acquisition opportunities. Because there are many unique factors that can impact an individual company when estimating the amount of future income taxes to be paid, we believe the pre-tax measure is useful for evaluating our Company. PV-10 is not a measure of financial or operating performance under GAAP, nor is it intended to represent the market value of our estimated oil and natural gas reserves. PV-10 should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Standardized Measure as defined under GAAP, and reconciled below. Probable reserves are not recognized by GAAP, and therefore the PV-10 of probable reserves cannot be reconciled to a GAAP measure.
The following table provides a reconciliation of PV-10 of each of our proved properties to the Standardized Measure.

The Company undertakes no obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are not limited to, those factors that are disclosed under the heading "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in our documents filed from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory authorities. Statements regarding our ability to complete transactions, successfully apply technology applications in the re-development of oil and gas fields, realize future production volumes, realize success in our drilling and development activity and forecasts of legal claims, prices, future revenues and income and cash flows and other statements that are not historical facts contain predictions, estimates and other forward-looking statements.

Important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements.
* PV-10 of proved reserves is a pre-tax non-GAAP measure reconciled to the after-tax Standardized Measure of Future Net Cash Flows below. We believe that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure of PV-10 provides useful and relevant information to investors because of its wide use by analysts and investors in evaluating the relative monetary significance of oil and natural gas properties, and as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our reserves to other companies' reserves. We also use this pre-tax measure when assessing the potential return on investment related to oil and natural gas properties and in evaluating acquisition opportunities. Because there are many unique factors that can impact an individual company when estimating the amount of future income taxes to be paid, we believe the pre-tax measure is useful for evaluating our Company. PV-10 is not a measure of financial or operating performance under GAAP, nor is it intended to represent the market value of our estimated oil and natural gas reserves. PV-10 should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Standardized Measure as defined under GAAP, and reconciled below. Probable reserves are not recognized by GAAP, and therefore the PV-10 of probable reserves cannot be reconciled to a GAAP measure.
The following table provides a reconciliation of PV-10 of each of our proved properties to the Standardized Measure.
