Recent material events (merger, financing, earnings) have produced mixed price reactions, with both aligned and divergent moves versus the apparent news tone.

Recent Company History

In late 2025 PEDEVCO executed a merger with Juniper-controlled portfolio companies, creating a Rockies-focused operator with over 6,500 BOEPD and roughly 320,000–328,000 net acres. The deal introduced significant Series A Convertible Preferred stock and increased borrowing capacity to a $120M base. Q3 2025 results, reported pre-merger close, showed revenue of $7.0M, a small net loss and Adjusted EBITDA $4.3M, with production of 1,471 BOEPD. Today’s year-end 2025 proved reserves update reflects the post-combination asset base, effectively resetting the reserve baseline after this transformational period.

Analysis

This announcement establishes an updated reserve baseline after PEDEVCO’s recent business combination, citing total proved reserves of about 32.12 MMBoe and a PV-10 of $357.7M under SEC pricing as of year-end 2025. The split between 16.38 MMBoe proved developed and 15.74 MMBoe proved undeveloped reserves, along with 71 planned horizontal locations, highlights both current production capacity and future development commitments. Investors may watch future filings for the Standardized Measure reconciliation and progress on converting undeveloped reserves.

8 terms

pv-10 financial

"Total Proved Reserves of 32.1 MMBoe with PV-10 of $357.7 Million at SEC Pricing"

PV-10 is a valuation metric that estimates the present value of future oil and gas production cash flows, discounted at 10% and stated before income taxes. Think of it as the current price tag on a company’s proven reserves, calculated by shrinking future revenue streams to today’s dollars using a 10% rate. Investors use PV-10 to compare the relative worth of reserves and assess how much future production could contribute to a company’s value, much like comparing the upfront price of different rental properties based on expected future rent.

sec pricing regulatory

"with PV-10 of $357.7 Million at SEC Pricing as of Year-End 2025"

SEC pricing is the final price set for a public offering of stocks or bonds that is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and disclosed to investors. It matters because that price determines how much money the company raises, how much existing shareholders are diluted, and how the market may react — similar to setting a ticket price that affects both revenue and crowd size.

regulation s-k regulatory

"conforms to Item 1202(a)(8) of Regulation S-K and other rules of the SEC."

A set of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that tell public companies which narrative and qualitative details must be disclosed in filings, such as risk factors, management discussion, executive pay, legal proceedings and business description. Think of it as a standardized checklist or blueprint that ensures investors get the same types of background information from every company so they can compare risks, management quality and strategy before making investment decisions.

mmbbl technical

"total proved reserves were 22.99 million barrels (“MMBbl”) of oil"

mmbbl stands for "million barrels" and is used to quantify large volumes of liquid hydrocarbons like crude oil. Investors see it on production, reserve and shipment reports; it’s a quick way to gauge scale—think of it like reporting a company’s inventory in millions of bottles rather than single units, which helps compare output, storage or revenue potential at a glance.

bcf technical

"28.78 billion cubic feet (“Bcf”) of natural gas"

bcf stands for billion cubic feet, a unit that measures the volume of natural gas; one bcf is the amount of gas that would fill a billion one-foot cubes. Investors watch bcf figures because they quantify production, reserves and consumption—like tracking how many tanks of fuel a company has or uses—so changes in bcf affect revenue, asset value and market supply-demand dynamics for energy firms and commodities.

ngls technical

"4.34 MMBbl of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”)"

Natural gas liquids (NGLs) are the heavier, liquid hydrocarbons—like ethane, propane, butane and natural gasoline—removed from raw natural gas during processing. For investors, NGLs matter because they are sold separately from gas and crude oil, can be stored and transported differently, and their prices and demand move with fuel, petrochemical and seasonal heating markets, affecting producers’ revenue and profit margins.

mmbtu technical

"$3.387 per MMBtu of natural gas, calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines."

A MMBtu is a unit of energy equal to one million British thermal units, commonly used to measure natural gas and other fuel quantities for trading and contracts. For investors, it translates raw energy into a standardized price metric—think of it like gallons for gasoline—so changes in the MMBtu price affect producer revenues, utility costs, commodity derivatives, and the profitability of energy-related investments.

non-gaap financial measure financial

"PV-10 may be considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC."

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.

Total Proved Reserves of 32.1 MMBoe with PV-10 of $357.7 Million at SEC Pricing as of Year-End 2025

Year-End 2025 Reserves Reflect Full Post-Combination Asset Base

HOUSTON, Feb. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PEDEVCO Corp. (NYSE American: PED) (“PEDEVCO” or the “Company”) today reported the results of its independent year-end 2025 proved reserves evaluation for all of the Company’s oil and gas properties in Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico. These include properties from its recently completed transformative merger with certain portfolio companies controlled by Juniper Capital Advisors, L.P.

“This independent reserve evaluation underscores the scale and multi-year runway of our newly fortified asset base,” said President & CEO J. Douglas Schick. “With over $357 million in PV-10 value, a substantial proved developed foundation, and clearly defined future drilling inventory that has been bolstered by our recent merger, we believe PEDEVCO is well positioned to generate consistent cash flow and long-term value for our shareholders.”

The Company’s proved reserves were evaluated by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. (“CG&A”), an independent petroleum engineering firm, in a report completed January 22, 2026, with an effective date of December 31, 2025. The evaluation was prepared using constant prices and costs and conforms to Item 1202(a)(8) of Regulation S-K and other rules of the SEC. The evaluation covers 100% of the Company’s interests in properties located in Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico. The estimates are for proved reserves only and do not include any probable or possible reserves.

At year-end 2025, PEDEVCO’s total proved reserves were 22.99 million barrels (“MMBbl”) of oil, 28.78 billion cubic feet (“Bcf”) of natural gas, and 4.34 MMBbl of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”), for a combined total of approximately 32.12 million barrels of oil equivalent (“MMBoe”). Of the total proved reserves, approximately 16.38 MMBoe were classified as proved developed and 15.74 MMBoe were classified as proved undeveloped.

SEC pricing as of December 31, 2025, was $65.34 per barrel of oil and $3.387 per MMBtu of natural gas, calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines. These prices were adjusted for applicable differentials, including transportation, local basis differentials, crude quality and gravity corrections, gas shrinkage, and gas heating value, resulting in net realized prices of $62.92 per barrel of oil, $3.04 per Mcf of natural gas and $25.77 per barrel of NGLs over the life of the proved properties.

Estimated future net cash flows before federal income taxes attributable to total proved reserves were approximately $674.8 million. The present value of these future net cash flows discounted at an annual rate of 10% (“PV-10”) was approximately $357.7 million, of which approximately $257.4 million, or 72%, is attributable to proved developed reserves.

Proved undeveloped reserves reflect the Company’s multi-year development plan, including 71 horizontal drilling locations: 49 in Colorado targeting the Niobrara formation, 17 in Wyoming targeting the Codell formation and five in New Mexico targeting the San Andres formation. Additionally, there are11 proved developed non-producing locations (10 in Colorado targeting the Niobrara and one in Wyoming targeting the Codell) representing completed wells with capital costs fully paid.

PV-10 Value
PV-10 may be considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows (“Standardized Measure”). PV-10 is computed on a pre-tax basis and is equal to the Standardized Measure before deducting future income taxes, discounted at 10%. The Company believes PV-10 is useful to investors because it presents discounted future net cash flows prior to future corporate income taxes, enabling comparison across companies regardless of tax position. PV-10 is not a substitute for the Standardized Measure. Neither PV-10 nor the Standardized Measure purport to represent the fair market value of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves. A reconciliation of PV-10 to the Standardized Measure will be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

These year-end 2025 proved reserves represent the full scope of the Company’s current asset base following its business combination and supersede any previously referenced reserve estimates, including pre-combination year-end 2024 figures. Investors and analysts should use these year-end 2025 reserves as the current authoritative baseline for the Company.
