Generated Adjusted EBITDA of $46 million that was at the high end of the guidance range of $41 million to $47 million

“During the second quarter of 2018, Amplify pivoted to reassess its strategic plans and direction,” said Ken Mariani, President and Chief Executive Officer of Amplify. “While our operating and financial results remain strong, we made the decision to suspend drilling activity in East Texas while we undertake a thorough review of all of the Company’s internal and external growth opportunities. The Company’s strategy going forward will be driven by strong alignment with our shareholders and will balance cash flow generation with a disciplined approach to capital spending. As an integral part of that strategy, Amplify’s management continues to work closely with our Board to evaluate growth strategies, manage operating costs and enhance shareholder value.”

Divestiture of South Texas Properties

On May 30, 2018, the Company announced that it closed the previously announced transaction to sell certain assets located in South Texas for cash consideration of approximately $18.4 million, including estimated post-closing adjustments. The proceeds from the sale were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Net production for the South Texas properties was approximately 15 MMcfe/d derived from over 500 gross producing wells with proved developed producing reserves of 52.4 Bcfe (88% natural gas), as of year-end 2017. Second quarter capital expenditures for the properties were approximately $60,000.

Suspension of California Royalty Relief

Due to low oil and gas prices, Amplify’s California properties were granted royalty relief by the U.S. Department of Interior in July 2016. This relief reduced the average royalty rate on the Company’s California production from 24.8% to 12.4%, subject to certain production and price tests. One of those tests stipulated that if trailing twelve-month weighted average prices exceeded $55.16 per BOE, or 25% above the prices when royalty relief was granted, the royalty relief would be suspended. Through the period ending June 2018, the average price for the trailing twelve months exceeded $55.16 per BOE, and as such the royalty rate for the Company’s California properties reverted to 24.8%.

Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity

As of August 6, 2018, Amplify had total debt of $303 million under its revolving credit facility, with a current borrowing base of $400 million. Amplify’s liquidity was $101 million as of August 6, 2018, consisting of $6 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of $95 million (including the impact of $2.4 million in outstanding letters of credit).

Production and Drilling Program Update

During the second quarter of 2018, Amplify produced 168.9 MMcfe/d, which was below quarterly guidance due to the impact of the previously mentioned South Texas divestiture.

In regards to the 2018 East Texas capital program, since the start of the year Amplify has completed three wells drilled in 2017 and drilled and completed an additional well from the 2018 drilling program. The four wells were completed in the Cotton Valley formation in the Joaquin Field in Panola County, TX, and produced an average IP30 of 5.5 MMcfe/d, which was below expectations. Due to these results and a recent decline in forecasted natural gas prices, the Company made the decision to suspend its 2018 East Texas drilling program in the second quarter of 2018. The Company is currently evaluating these drilling results and future East Texas activity will be considered as part of the Company’s overall asset exploitation plan.

In the Eagle Ford, first production from 13 gross (0.6 net) new non-operated Eagle Ford shale wells in the second quarter of 2018 performed above expectations with average IP 30 rates of 1,631 Boe/d per well (90% liquids). The Company expects these wells to have rates of return in excess of 100% and payout in less than 11 months at current commodity prices.

Capital Spending Update and Outlook

Amplify’s capital spend for the second quarter was approximately $23 million, and in-line with quarterly guidance. Second quarter capital was allocated 84% in East Texas, 6% in the Eagle Ford, with the remainder focused primarily on workover and infrastructure related projects in California, the Rockies and South Texas.

Due to the suspension of the East Texas drilling program, the Company’s capex program for the third quarter of 2018 has been reduced to approximately $5 to $7 million.

Third Quarter and Full Year 2018 Guidance

The following guidance included in this press release is subject to the cautionary statements and limitations described under the “Forward-Looking Statements” caption at the end of this press release. Amplify’s updated 2018 guidance is based on its current expectations regarding capital expenditure levels and on the assumption that market demand and prices for oil and natural gas will continue at levels that allow for economic production of these products.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that Amplify expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Terminology such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “project,” “intend,” “estimate,” “believe,” “target,” “continue,” “potential,” the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Amplify believes that these statements are based on reasonable assumptions, but such assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Such statements are also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of Amplify, which may cause Amplify’s actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. Please read the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, and if applicable, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other public filings and press releases for a discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those in such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release. All forward-looking statements in this press release are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Amplify undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future results or otherwise.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Amplify does.

Adjusted EBITDA. Amplify defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, plus interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization; impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments; losses on sale of assets; unit-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; acquisition and divestiture related expenses; amortization of gain associated with terminated commodity derivatives, bad debt expense; and other non-routine items, less interest income; gain on extinguishment of debt; income tax benefit; gains on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements paid on expired commodity derivative instruments; gains on sale of assets and other, net; and other non-routine items. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of Amplify’s financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) its operating performance as compared to other companies in Amplify’s industry without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support Amplify’s indebtedness; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative

investment opportunities. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net cash provided by operating activities.

Free Cash Flow. Amplify defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash income taxes; cash interest expense; and total capital expenditures. Free cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify’s investors since it serves as an indicator of the Company’s success in providing a cash return on investment. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities.
