- Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $10.0 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 31%. The increase was due to the production increase and an increase in average prices of 7%
- Revenue, net of royalties was $13.9 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $10.1 million for second quarter of 2023, an increase of 38%, due to higher average production and prices
- Net income in the second quarter of 2024 was $4.1 million and EPS was $0.11/share compared to $4.3 million and EPS of $0.12/share in the second quarter of 2023.

Kolibri’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Wolf Regener commented:
“We are pleased that the Company continues to increase production and Adjusted EBITDA as we demonstrate the growth potential of the Tishomingo field. Average production increased by 30% and Adjusted EBITDA increased 31% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023 demonstrating our continued growth. We are excited to enter into a new phase of the Company’s development where we believe the most economic and efficient strategy is to drill longer laterals. We just started drilling the three Alicia Renee wells (all 100% working interest) that will each have a 1.5 mile lateral and we expect to bring those wells on production early in the fourth quarter of 2024.”

Second Quarter 2024 versus Second Quarter 2023
Oil and gas gross revenues totaled $17.7 million in the quarter versus $12.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 39%. Oil revenues increased $4.7 million or 39% as average oil prices increased by $7.15 per barrel or 10% and oil production increased by 27% to 2,309 bopd. Natural gas revenues decreased $0.1 million or 37% to $0.1 million as average natural gas prices decreased by $0.99/mcf or 54% to $0.84/mcf partially offset by a natural gas production increase of 37% to 1,916 mcfpd. Natural gas liquids (NGLs) revenues increased $0.3 million or 58% as average NGL prices increased 14% to $18.24/boe and NGL production increased 39% to 500 boepd.
Average production for the second quarter of 2024 was 3,128 BOEPD, an increase of 30% compared to the second quarter of 2023 average production of 2,415 BOEPD due to production from the wells that were drilled and completed in the last six months of 2023 and the first six months of 2024.
Production and operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $2.1 million compared to $1.1 million in the prior year comparable period. The increase was partially due to natural gas and NGL processing costs of $0.2 million, or $0.50 per BOE, related to prior years as the purchaser reassessed prior year gathering and processing costs in 2024. Under the terms of the Company’s contract with the purchaser, adjustments to fee billings over the last 24 months are permissible. The adjustments received to date cover 2022 and 2023. In addition, the second quarter of 2024 included rework costs for wells that were impacted by offset fracture stimulations at the end of 2023 which totaled $0.31 per BOE. Without these fees and costs, operating expense per barrel would be $7.67 per BOE for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 27% due to higher water hauling costs.
General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.5 million compared to $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 50%. The increase was due to higher accounting fees and public company costs that resulted from listing on the NASDAQ stock market at the end of 2023 which increased by $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 as well as higher payroll and director fees mainly related to additional personnel and higher investor relations and marketing costs.
Finance expense increased $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year second quarter due to higher interest expense as a result of higher interest rates and an increase in the outstanding bank loan balance in 2024.

- Net income in the first six months of 2024 was $7.4 million compared to $12.2 million in the first six months of 2023.

Netback from operations and netback including commodity contracts are considered non-GAAP ratios. Refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Measures” of this earnings release. |
The information outlined above is extracted from and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and the related management’s discussion and analysis thereof, copies of which are available under the Company’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
NON-GAAP MEASURES
Netback from operations, netback including commodity contracts and adjusted EBITDA (collectively, the “Company’s Non-GAAP Measures“) are not measures or ratios recognized under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP“) and do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Management of the Company believes that such measures and ratios are relevant for evaluating returns on each of the Company’s projects as well as the performance of the enterprise as a whole. The Company’s Non-GAAP Measures may differ from similar computations as reported by other similar organizations and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures and ratios as reported by such organizations. The Company’s Non-GAAP Measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income, cash flows related to operating activities, working capital or other financial measures and ratios determined in accordance with IFRS, as an indicator of the Company’s performance.
An explanation of how the Company’s Non-GAAP Measures provide useful information to an investor and the purposes for which the Company’s management uses the Non-GAAP Measures is set out in the management’s discussion and analysis under the heading “Non-GAAP Measures” which is available under the Company’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca and is incorporated by reference into this earnings release.
Netback from operations per barrel and its components are calculated by dividing revenue, less royalties and operating expenses by the Company’s sales volume during the period. Netback including commodity contracts is calculated by adjusting netback from operations by the realized gains or losses received from commodity contracts during the period. Netback is a non-GAAP ratio but it is commonly used by oil and gas companies to illustrate the unit contribution of each barrel produced. The Company believes that the netback is a useful supplemental measure of the cash flow generated on each barrel of oil equivalent that is produced in its operations. However, non-GAAP measures and non-GAAP ratios do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures or ratios used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons.
The following is the reconciliation of the non-GAAP ratio netback from operations to net income (loss) from continuing operations, which the Company considers to be the most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the Company’s financial statements:

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before interest, taxes, depletion and depreciation and other non-cash and non-operating gains and losses. The Company considers this a key measure as it demonstrates its ability to generate cash from operations necessary for future growth excluding non-cash items, gains and losses that are not part of the normal operations of the Company and financing costs. The following is the reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure adjusted EBITDA:

PRODUCT TYPE DISCLOSURE
This news release includes references to sales volumes of “oil”, “natural gas”, and “barrels of oil equivalent” or “BOEs”. “Oil” refers to light crude oil and medium crude oil combined, and “natural gas” refers to shale gas, in each case as defined by NI 51-101. Production from our wells, primarily disclosed in this news release in BOEs, consists of mainly oil and associated wet gas. The wet gas is delivered via gathering system and then pipelines to processing plants where it is treated and sold as natural gas and NGLs.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
In this news release and the Company’s other public disclosure:
|
(a) |
|
The Company’s natural gas production is reported in thousands of cubic feet (“Mcfs“). The Company also uses references to barrels (“Bbls“) and barrels of oil equivalent (“Boes“) to reflect natural gas liquids and oil production and sales. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A Boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. |
|
(b) |
|
Discounted and undiscounted net present value of future net revenues attributable to reserves do not represent fair market value. |
|
(c) |
|
Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves. |
|
(d) |
|
The Company discloses peak and 30-day initial production rates and other short-term production rates. Readers are cautioned that such production rates are preliminary in nature and are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. |
Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information
