News Explained

The authorization is not a completed repurchase, while revised 2026 guidance lowers the production and lease-cost upper bounds.

The board authorized up to $15.0 million of share repurchases through December 31, 2026, and Amplify Energy had bought $6.9 million by November 6, 2026.

The $15.0 million authorization is a ceiling, not reported spending: actual purchases were $6.9 million through November 6, 2026.

For 2026, the company lowered the high end of oil-production guidance from 7.5 MBbls/d to 7.3 MBbls/d and reduced the upper end of lease-operating-expense guidance to $90 million.

Key Terms

irr, non-gaap financial measure, commodity derivatives, lease operating expenses

4 terms

irr financial

"expected payout of 10 months and an IRR in excess of 150%"

IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is the annualized percentage return an investment is expected to produce based on its projected series of cash outflows and inflows; mathematically, it’s the rate that makes the present value of those cash flows balance to zero. Investors use IRR to compare and rank projects or investments—similar to comparing the interest rates on savings accounts—to judge which offers the best return for the time and risk involved.

View in glossary

non-gaap financial measure financial

"A non-GAAP financial measure"

A non-GAAP financial measure is a way companies present their financial results that excludes certain expenses or income to show how they believe their core business is performing. It matters because it can give a clearer picture of how the company is really doing, but it can also be used to make results look better than they actually are.

commodity derivatives financial

"non-cash unrealized loss on commodity derivatives during the period"

Commodity derivatives are financial contracts whose value is tied to the price of a physical raw material—such as oil, gold, wheat or copper—and they let parties lock in or bet on future prices without necessarily owning the actual goods. For investors, they matter because they offer ways to protect profits from wild price swings (like locking the price of fuel ahead of a trip) or to gain exposure and potential returns through leverage, but they also carry higher risk and require close attention to market supply, demand and storage factors.

lease operating expenses financial

"lease operating expenses were approximately $22.7 million"

Costs required to keep a leased property or asset running, including routine maintenance, repairs, utilities, insurance, property taxes and management fees that the lessee or lessor must pay while the lease is active. Investors care because these recurring outlays reduce net income and cash flow from the lease—like owning a rental where you still pay for upkeep—so they affect profitability, yield and the true return on an investment tied to leased assets.

HOUSTON, Nov. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amplify Energy Corp. (NYSE: AMPY) (“Amplify,” the “Company,” “us,” or “our”) today announced operating and financial results for the third quarter of 2026.

Recent Developments and Third Quarter Highlights

• Recently, Amplify achieved the following:
  • Effective November 1, 2026, Amplify secured Special Case Royalty Relief (“SCRR”) at Beta, reducing the royalty rate on all Beta production to approximately 12.4%
  • Through November 4, 2026, Amplify has repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares of common stock, representing approximately 4.0% of shares outstanding, for approximately $6.9 million at a weighted-average purchase price of $4.35 per share
• Continued to generate strong results from the Beta development:
  • The C29 well, completed in June 2026, averaged approximately 380 gross Bopd in the third quarter with an expected payout of 10 months and an IRR in excess of 150%
  • The C16 well, completed in July 2026, averaged approximately 360 gross Bopd in the third quarter with an expected payout of 10 months and an IRR in excess of 150%
• Reduced Bairoil lease operating expenses by $3.0 million versus the prior quarter and $5.2 million versus third quarter 2025
  • Averaged 58 MMcfd of CO₂ injections in the third quarter, approximately 80% higher than the minimum contracted amount
• During the third quarter of 2026, the Company:
  • Averaged total production of 7.4 MBopd (100% oil), an increase of approximately 9% compared to the prior quarter and 15% from the first quarter of 2026, driven by development activity and royalty relief at Beta and production growth at Bairoil
  • Reported a net loss of $18.9 million in the third quarter compared to net income of $17.3 million in the second quarter, primarily driven by changes in commodity derivative instruments
  • Generated net cash provided by operating activities of $3.1 million
  • Delivered Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $10.8 million and Adjusted Net Income⁽¹⁾ of $0.7 million, an increase of $2.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, compared to the prior quarter, despite approximately $9.7 million of realized commodity derivative losses. The Company's average hedge prices are higher in 2027, which, together with the operating improvements described below, are expected to support stronger cash flow generation

      (1) A non-GAAP financial measure; see the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this release for more information including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

• As of September 30, 2026, Amplify had no outstanding debt under its revolving credit facility and liquidity of $25.0 million, consisting of $10.0 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of approximately $15.0 million
  
  

Dan Furbee, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our third-quarter results demonstrate tangible progress in unlocking the value of Amplify’s asset base, with growing production across both assets and significantly lower costs at Bairoil. During the third quarter, strong performance from the recently drilled C29 and C16 wells, together with End of Life royalty relief, meaningfully increased net production, revenue and cash flow at Beta. Special Case Royalty Relief further enhances future development economics and supports extension of the field’s economic life. At Bairoil, our amended CO₂ purchase agreement was expected to reduce annual lease operating expenses by more than $10 million compared with 2025. However, in the third quarter, due to increased CO₂ deliveries above the contract minimum, our estimated annualized savings are forecasted to be greater than $20 million compared to the prior year, significantly increasing the profitability of the field. Moreover, the increased delivery of CO₂ highlights the current and future value associated with Bairoil’s available pore space for carbon storage.”

Mr. Furbee continued, “In addition to the positive operational developments at Bairoil and Beta, we are also pleased with the share repurchase program we commenced in August. To date, we have bought back approximately 4.0% of our shares outstanding at a weighted-average purchase price of $4.35 per share, which we believe is well below intrinsic value. We believe buying back shares at these levels is accretive to shareholders, and we intend to continue allocating capital to the share repurchase program.”

Mr. Furbee concluded, “We believe buying back shares, investing in development drilling at Beta with Special Case Royalty Relief, and pursuing opportunities to monetize our available pore space at Bairoil present us with a myriad of opportunities for value creation.”

Enhanced Beta Royalty Relief

Building upon the End of Life (“EOL”) royalty relief secured in May 2026, Amplify obtained SCRR at Beta effective November 1, 2026. As a result, the royalty rate on all Beta production is approximately 12.4% (down from 24.8% prior to EOL royalty relief and SCRR). Additionally, under SCRR, the commodity price threshold for suspension has increased to approximately $92 per BOE, based on a trailing 12-month average (up from approximately $80 per BOE in EOL royalty relief).

Unlike the prior royalty framework, which reduced the economic benefits of incremental production as volumes increased, SCRR allows the Company to retain a greater share of the value generated from future development projects. As a result, Amplify expects the enhanced royalty structure to improve drilling economics, which is expected to increase development opportunities at Beta while extending the field’s economic life. Royalty relief remains subject to certain thresholds, which are discussed further in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Share Repurchase Program

In August, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $15.0 million of the Company’s common stock through December 31, 2026. Through November 6, 2026, the Company repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares for approximately $6.9 million at a weighted-average purchase price of $4.35 per share.

The Company believes repurchasing shares at prices significantly below its assessment of intrinsic value represents an attractive use of capital and increases the value of Amplify’s underlying assets and future cash flows attributable to each remaining share. The program reflects Amplify’s capital allocation discipline and its focus on pursuing opportunities offering what the Company believes to be the most compelling risk-adjusted returns for shareholders.

Key Financial Results – Third Quarter

During the third quarter of 2026, the Company reported a net loss of approximately $18.9 million compared to net income of $17.3 million in the prior quarter. Net loss in the quarter was primarily attributable to a $24.6 million non-cash unrealized loss on commodity derivatives during the period. Excluding the impact of the non-cash unrealized loss on commodity derivatives and additional other one-time items, Amplify generated Adjusted Net Income of $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2026. Third-quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA was $10.8 million and Free Cash Flow was $2.0 million, both in line with expectations. Third quarter results included approximately $9.7 million of realized commodity derivative losses; the Company's average hedge prices are higher in 2027, which should improve cash flow relative to the third quarter, assuming comparable commodity prices and operating performance.

Corporate Production and Pricing

During the third quarter of 2026, average daily production was approximately 7.4 MBopd, consisting entirely of crude oil. Compared to the prior quarter, total Company production increased approximately 9%, driven by an approximately 11% increase at Beta and an 8% increase at Bairoil. In total, third quarter production was up 15% from the first quarter 2026.

Total oil revenues for the third quarter of 2026 were approximately $51.4 million, before the impact of derivatives. The Company realized a net loss on commodity derivatives of $9.7 million during the quarter.

The following table sets forth information regarding average realized crude sales prices for the periods indicated:

		Crude Oil ($/Bbl)
		Three				Three
		Months				Months

Marketing Update

Over the past several quarters at Beta, Amplify has navigated changing market dynamics as refining capacity in California has declined, reducing the number of available outlets for locally produced crude oil and placing pressure on realized pricing. The Company continues to pursue multiple paths to expand available markets and improve pricing, including offshore buoys, new pipeline connections and trucking options. Although market pressure remains, fourth-quarter differentials have improved, and Amplify has updated its guidance to reflect the stronger realized pricing outlook.

Costs and Expenses

In the third quarter of 2026, lease operating expenses were approximately $22.7 million. Driven by the amended CO₂ purchase agreement, Bairoil lease operating expenses declined approximately 30% from $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2026 to $7.8 million in the third quarter of 2026. In total, we expect full-year 2026 lease operating expenses of approximately $80.0 million to $90.0 million, which represents a slight improvement from prior guidance.

Severance and ad valorem taxes in the third quarter of 2026 were approximately $3.2 million, which was slightly higher than the prior quarter due to higher production partially offset by lower physical prices. Severance and ad valorem taxes as a percentage of revenue were approximately 6.2% in the third quarter of 2026 and were in line with guidance.

Amplify incurred approximately $1.0 million, or $1.52 per Bbl, of gathering, processing and transportation (“GP&T”) expenses in the third quarter of 2026.

Cash G&A expenses in the third quarter of 2026 were approximately $4.6 million, compared to $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2026. The Company expects full-year cash G&A expenses of approximately $20.0 million to $22.0 million, within its previously announced guidance range.

In the third quarter of 2026, depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense totaled approximately $5.6 million, and net interest expense was $0.9 million. Interest expense is primarily related to surety bond premiums for the Beta assets. Amplify recorded a $3.5 million deferred income tax benefit for the third quarter of 2026.

Third Quarter Capital Investments

Capital investment during the third quarter of 2026 was approximately $8.0 million. The Company’s capital allocation in the quarter was primarily invested in development drilling with the completion of the C16 well in July and waterflood enhancement projects at Beta.

The following table details Amplify’s capital invested during the third quarter of 2026:

		Third Quarter			Year to Date
		2026 Capital			2026 Capital
		($ MM)			($ MM)
Bairoil		$	0.7		$	1.7
Beta			7.3		$	48.0
Total Capital Invested		$	8.0		$	49.7

Operations Update

Beta

At Beta, Amplify continues to focus on development drilling, waterflood optimization and operating cost reductions to enhance the long-term value of the asset. The C29 and C16 wells continued to perform well during the third quarter, contributing to an approximately 11% increase in Beta production compared to the prior quarter. These results build on the success of the Company’s recent development program and reinforce management’s confidence in Beta’s remaining drilling inventory and future development potential.

Amplify expects to continue development drilling at Beta in 2027. Importantly, the recently approved SCRR further enhances the economics of future development by reducing the royalty rate on incremental production above specified volume thresholds to approximately 12.4%. Unlike the prior royalty structure, which reduced the benefit of incremental production as volumes increased, SCRR allows Amplify to retain a greater share of the value generated from future development projects. Management believes the combination of demonstrated well performance, improved royalty economics and continued operating efficiencies supports additional production growth, attractive development returns and a longer economic life for Beta.

In parallel with development drilling, Amplify continues to advance its waterflood enhancement and pressure maintenance program. During the third quarter, the Company focused on restoring and improving injection support in portions of the reservoir that had experienced reduced pressure support. Management expects these initiatives to improve reservoir performance and support more consistent and sustainable production from both existing wells and future development locations. The Company also continues to pursue targeted workovers and other field optimization projects intended to improve production reliability and reduce operating costs.

Bairoil

At Bairoil, Amplify is experiencing a significant improvement in field-level profitability as the benefits of its amended CO₂ purchase agreement and broader cost-reduction initiatives are being realized. As a reminder, the agreement provides increasing 45Q rebates on volumes above the minimum commitment, generating a higher credit to LOE as CO₂ deliveries increase. Lease operating expenses declined approximately 30% sequentially, from $10.8 million in the second quarter to $7.8 million in the third quarter, reaching the lowest quarterly level since Amplify acquired the asset in 2014. A comparison of third quarter 2026 to 2025 lease operating expenses represents annualized savings of more than $20 million.

The combination of lower CO₂ costs, increased CO₂ volumes and continued operating efficiencies is fundamentally improving the profitability and cash flow profile of Bairoil. Importantly, these improvements are being achieved while production increased approximately 8% from the prior quarter, demonstrating the benefit of pairing lower costs with continued optimization of the field’s enhanced oil recovery operations. Bairoil is a long-life, low-decline asset with significant fixed infrastructure, thus lower operating costs, increased production and improved pricing can translate into substantial incremental free cash flow and extend the field’s economic life.

Beyond improvements in the underlying oilfield economics, Amplify continues to evaluate opportunities to unlock additional value from Bairoil’s existing CO₂ infrastructure and available pore space. The Company believes these attributes could support future carbon storage and other low-carbon initiatives, providing potential sources of value beyond Bairoil’s traditional oil production and enhanced recovery operations.

Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2026, Amplify had no outstanding debt under its revolving credit facility. As of such date, Amplify’s liquidity was approximately $25.0 million, consisting of $10.0 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of approximately $15.0 million.

The Company is currently in the process of completing its regularly scheduled semi-annual borrowing base redetermination, with results expected later in the quarter.

Driven by strong operating performance, internally generated free cash flow and lower capital investment in the third and fourth quarters, Amplify expects to exit 2026 with a strengthened balance sheet and a net cash position.

Full-Year 2026 Guidance

The 2026 guidance is subject to the cautionary statements and limitations described under the "Forward-Looking Statements" caption at the end of this press release. Amplify's 2026 guidance is based on its current expectations regarding capital investment levels and flat commodity prices for crude oil of $90/Bbl (WTI) and assumes market demand and prices that support economic production. As year-end approaches, the Company tightened guidance ranges for production, GP&T, cash G&A and capital investment and reduced the upper end of lease operating expense guidance to $90.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA guidance remains in line with the Company's prior outlook issued in August 2026.

Hedging

Amplify maintains a robust hedge portfolio designed to support cash flows and provide downside protection during periods of commodity price volatility, further enhancing cash flow visibility. During the third quarter of 2026 and subsequent to quarter-end, the Company entered into additional costless collars covering portions of 2027 production, including WTI crude oil collars with weighted average floor and ceiling prices of $75.00/Bbl and $87.50/Bbl, respectively, and Brent crude oil collars with weighted average floor and ceiling prices of $78.59/Bbl and $93.99/Bbl, respectively. The Company also entered into Brent crude oil swaps covering a portion of expected production for the full-year 2028 at a weighted average price of $75.50/Bbl. As of November 6, 2026, the Company has hedged approximately 60-70% of its expected PDP oil production for the remainder of 2026 and for full-year 2027, and 20-25% for full-year 2028. Amplify has posted an updated investor presentation containing additional hedging information on its website, www.amplifyenergy.com, under the Investor Relations section.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Free Cash Flow and cash G&A. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures 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, standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, 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 (loss) plus Interest expense, net; Income tax expense (benefit); DD&A; Impairment expense; Accretion of AROs; Loss or (gain) on commodity derivative instruments; Cash settlements received or (paid) on expired commodity derivative instruments; Amortization of gain associated with terminated commodity derivatives; Losses or (gains) on sale of properties; Share-based compensation expenses; Exploration costs; Acquisition and divestiture related costs; Loss on settlement of AROs; Bad debt expense; Severance payments; Pipeline incident loss and other non-routine items that we deem appropriate. 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 measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA are net income and net cash provided by operating activities.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss). Amplify defines Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for unrealized loss (gain) on commodity derivative instruments, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, impairment expense, unusual and infrequent items, and the income tax expense or benefit of these adjustments using our federal statutory tax rate. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) excludes the impact of unusual and infrequent items affecting earnings that vary widely and unpredictably. This measure is not meant to disassociate these items from management's performance but rather is intended to provide helpful information to investors interested in comparing our performance between periods. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is not considered to be an alternative to net income (loss) reported in accordance with GAAP.

Free Cash Flow. Amplify defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and 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 measures most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow are net income and net cash provided by operating activities.

Cash G&A. Amplify defines cash G&A as general and administrative expense, less share-based compensation expense; acquisition and divestiture costs; bad debt expense; severance payments; and other non-routine items that we deem appropriate. Cash G&A is an important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify’s investors since it allows for analysis of G&A spend without regard to share-based compensation and other non-recurring expenses which can vary substantially from company to company. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to cash G&A is total G&A expense.

FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

How much stock has Amplify Energy repurchased under its 2026 program?

Through November 4, 2026, Amplify repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares for approximately $6.9 million at a weighted-average price of $4.35 per share. Those shares represented approximately 4.0% of shares outstanding. The board authorized repurchases of up to $15.0 million through December 31, 2026.

What price threshold applies to Amplify Energy's enhanced Beta royalty relief?

The commodity price threshold for suspending Beta royalty relief is approximately $92 per barrel of oil equivalent, based on a trailing 12-month average. That is up from approximately $80 under the earlier End of Life relief program. Relief remains subject to certain thresholds.

How does Amplify Energy's Bairoil CO2 agreement reduce operating costs?

The amended agreement provides increasing 45Q rebates on CO2 volumes above the minimum commitment, increasing credits against lease operating expenses as deliveries rise. Third-quarter CO2 injections averaged 58 million cubic feet daily, approximately 80% above the minimum contracted amount.
