First Quarter Highlights
•Lonestar Resources registered an 18% increase in net oil and gas production to 6,553 BOEPD in 1Q16, vs. 5,547 BOEPD in 1Q15. In the first quarter, 74% of the Company's production was crude oil and NGL's.
•The Company continues to focus its technical and capital resources on the Eagle Ford Shale, where it generated a 23% increase in net oil and gas production over 1Q15 results, to 5,954 BOEPD.
•EBITDAX was $13.6 million for 1Q16 vs. $21.7 million for 1Q15, as increased production volumes and incremental revenues from crude oil hedges helped offset a 31% decrease in West Texas Intermediate oil prices.
•Lonestar reported a net loss of $11.3 million for 1Q16 vs. a net loss of $0.7 million in 1Q15. Excluding a $8.4 million unrealized loss on commodity derivative and the associated non-cash expense, Lonestar would have reported a net loss of $2.9 million for 1Q16.
•At March 31, 2016, $86 million was outstanding on the facility on its $180 million Senior Secured facility, currently leaving $94 million undrawn and available.
•Lonestar is making progress towards its corporate objective of moving the Company's domicile and public equity listing to the United States. On March 10, 2016 Lonestar received overwhelming approval from its shareholders in support of this objective. The Company continues to respond to comments from the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and believes that it is close to receiving clearance from the SEC. Upon clearance from the SEC, Lonestar will schedule a second Court hearing in Australia to gain final approval of the move to the United States. Lonestar filed an application for listing on the NASDAQ: NMS and reserved the ticker "LONE" for trading in the United States, which when effective, will coincide with a delisting from the Australian Stock Exchange.
