George Maxwell, VAALCO's Chief Executive Officer commented, "As shown by these strong 2021 results, we are delivering operationally, benefiting from the improved commodity price environment and generating significant cash flow, firmly placing VAALCO in a financially stronger position and poised to execute on accretive growth initiatives in 2022 and beyond.  In the fourth quarter 2021, we produced 7,554 NRI BOPD, which was above the midpoint of guidance, generated nearly $23 million in Adjusted EBITDAX and maintained a debt free balance sheet with a cash position of $48.7 million, while funding our 2021/2022 drilling campaign and FSO conversion from cash on hand and through cash from operations."

 

"Enhancing our production, reducing our costs and extending the economic life of our assets are key tenets to VAALCO's continued success.  In December 2021, we kicked off the 2021/2022 drilling campaign with the highly successful Etame 8H-ST development well. In early February 2022, we completed and brought that well online with initial flow rates of approximately 5,000 gross BOPD. We are currently drilling the second well in the 2021/2022 program, the Avouma 3H-ST1 development well. We believe that executing another successful drilling campaign with the goal of adding material production and reserves will significantly improve our size and scale, further enhancing our ability to execute on our accretive future growth initiatives. Additionally, we are progressing our FSO solution, which is on track to come online in September 2022. We anticipate that storage and offloading costs will decrease by almost 50% compared to the current FPSO and overall costs are expected to decrease by approximately 17% to 20%.  These cost savings would significantly improve margins, enhance cash flow generation and sustain operational excellence and robust financial performance at Etame through 2030. We are excited with the multi-year accretive growth plan and upside potential at Etame."

 

"Etame is a high-quality asset from which VAALCO has consistently realized upside potential, as demonstrated by the substantial growth of our proved reserve base.  The increase resulted from a combination of positive factors including improved well performance, Etame field life extension resulting from our changeover to a more cost-effective FSO this year, PUD additions, positive oil pricing revisions and acquisitions. We have a strong, stable reserve base with substantial organic upside opportunities and will continue to look for additional accretive acquisitions to further enhance our reserve base." 

 

Maxwell concluded, "Finally, while we are looking to grow VAALCO, we continue to generate significant cash flow and have funded our endeavors with cash on hand and cash from operations.  Additionally, we believe that it is important for E&P companies to return cash to shareholders and we initiated a dividend policy that reflects the strength and sustainability of our business, and the confidence in our near-term outlook.  Our Board believes that the implementation of a sustainable, quarterly cash dividend is the right approach for VAALCO, based on our strong balance sheet and ability to generate meaningful free cash flow.  The present industry tailwinds are particularly strong for VAALCO and we are pleased to be capitalizing on this strong commodity price environment. We also believe that there are many accretive opportunities for VAALCO, both organically and inorganically, that will enhance our ability to generate cash flow and return value to our shareholders.

2021/2022 Drilling Campaign

 

VAALCO began its 2021/2022 drilling campaign in December 2021 with the drilling of the Etame 8H-ST development well. The well came online in February 2022 and had initial flow rates of approximately 5,000 gross BOPD, but was choked back to about 4,200 BOPD for reservoir management purposes. VAALCO moved the contracted jack-up rig to the Avouma platform to drill the Avouma 3H-ST1 development well, which is currently drilling. This is another development well targeting the Gamba reservoir and the first of two planned development wells to be drilled on the Avouma platform. The Company is currently planning to drill four wells as part of its 2021/2022 drilling campaign. VAALCO continues to estimate the total cost of the 2021/2022 drilling campaign at Etame to be between $117.0 million and $143.0 million gross, or between $74.0 million and $91.0 million net to VAALCO's 63.6% participating interest.

Consortium Provisionally Awarded Two Offshore Blocks in Gabon

The consortium of VAALCO, BW Energy and Panoro Energy (the "BWE Consortium") has been provisionally awarded two blocks in the 12th Offshore Licensing Round in Gabon. The award is subject to finalizing the terms of the production sharing contracts ("PSC") with the Gabonese government. BW Energy will be the operator with a 37.5% working interest, with VAALCO (37.5% working interest) and Panoro Energy (25% working interest) as non-operating joint owners. The two blocks, G12-13 and H12-13, are adjacent to VAALCO's Etame PSC as well as BW Energy and Panoro's Dussafu PSC offshore Southern Gabon, and cover an area of 2,989 square kilometers and 1,929 square kilometers, respectively. Both Etame and Dussafu have been highly successful exploration, development and production projects undertaken by the BWE Consortium members over the past 20 years with approximately 250 million barrels discovered to date.

 

The two blocks will be held by the BWE Consortium and the PSCs will provide for two exploration periods totaling eight years which may be extended by two additional years. During the first exploration period, the joint owners intend to reprocess existing seismic and carry out a 3-D seismic campaign and have also committed to drilling one exploration well on each of the two blocks. In the event the consortium elects to enter the second exploration period, the BWE Consortium will be committed to drilling at least one exploration well on each of the awarded blocks. 

FSO Conversion

In August 2021, VAALCO and its co-venturers at Etame approved the Bareboat Contract and Operating Agreement (collectively, the "FSO Agreements") with World Carrier Offshore Services Corp to replace the existing Floating Production, Storage and Offloading unit ("FPSO") with an FSO at the Etame Marin block offshore Gabon for up to eight years with additional option periods available. The current FPSO contract expires in September 2022. VAALCO currently believes that all of the associated engineering, long-lead equipment and significant contracts are proceeding in-line with the anticipated timelines and expected delivery schedules for the deployment of the FSO in the third quarter of 2022.  Field reconfiguration activities are expected to begin in March 2022, as planned.  The Cap Diamant, a double-hull crude tanker built in 2001 that is being re-engineered as the new FSO, entered the shipyard in late February 2022 on schedule in Bahrain, for the final modifications and certifications.  VAALCO expects the vessel will begin sea trials in late June before being mobilized to Gabon. 

 

Compared to the current FPSO agreement, the new FSO is expected to significantly reduce storage and offloading costs by almost 50%, increase effective capacity for storage by over 50%, and lead to an extension of the economic field life, resulting in a corresponding increase in recovery and reserves at Etame.  Current total field level capital conversion estimates are $40 to $50 million gross ($26 to $32 million net to VAALCO).  This capital investment is projected to save approximately $20 to $25 million gross per year ($13 to $16 million net to VAALCO) in operational costs through 2030, which would give the project a very attractive payback period of less than two and a half years.

 

Equatorial Guinea

VAALCO will have a 45.9% WI in Block P offshore Equatorial Guinea, once the Ministry of Mines and Hydrocarbons approves the new amendment to the PSC. VAALCO has completed a feasibility study of a standalone production development opportunity of the Venus discovery on Block P.  The Company is now proceeding to a field development plan and will work closely with the other joint venture owners to complete this over the coming months.  The Block P PSC provides for a development and production period of 25 years from the date of approval of a development and production plan. 

Year-End 2021 Reserves

VAALCO's SEC proved reserves at December 31, 2021 were 11.2 MMBO, with 7.2 MMBO in proved developed reserves and 4.0 MMBO in proved undeveloped reserves. The Company's SEC reserves were fully engineered by its third-party independent reserve consultant, Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc., ("NSAI") who has provided annual independent estimates of VAALCO's year-end SEC reserves for over 15 years.  In 2021, the Company added 2.6 MMBO of SEC proved reserves through the acquisition of Sasol Gabon S.A.'s ("Sasol") interest at Etame, 3.0 MMBO due to positive oil price revisions and 5.0 MMBO due to positive well performance revisions and FSO-related field life extension, and the addition of four PUD locations. These additions were partially offset by 2.6 MMBO due to full year 2021 production. 

The present value of proved reserves discounted at 10% ("PV-10")1 of VAALCO's proved SEC reserves, utilizing SEC pricing of $69.10 per barrel of crude oil (average of monthly Brent prices on the first of each month for calendar year 2021 adjusted for price differentials), increased to $99.3 million at December 31, 2021 from $14.7 million at December 31, 2020.  The SEC pricing utilized for PV-10 for year-end 2020 was $42.46 per barrel.

At year-end 2021, NSAI provided the 2P CPR estimate of proven and probable reserves which was prepared in accordance with the definitions and guidelines set forth in the 2018 Petroleum Resources Management Systems approved by the Society of Petroleum Engineers as of December 31, 2021 using VAALCO's management assumptions for future Brent escalated crude oil pricing and costs shown below under "Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures - 2P CPR Reserves". The 2P CPR reserves attributable to VAALCO's ownership are reported on a WI basis prior to deductions for government royalties.  The year-end 2021 2P CPR estimate of reserves is 19.5 MMBO to VAALCO's WI, an increase of 88% from 10.4 MMBO at December 31, 2020. The PV-10 value of VAALCO's 2P CPR reserves at year-end 2021, utilizing management escalated pricing and cost assumptions, is $183.7 million, up 117% from $84.4 million at December 31, 2020.

Financial Update - Fourth Quarter of 2021

Net income of $34.4 million ($0.58 per diluted share) for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared favorably with net income of $31.7 million ($0.53 per diluted share) in the third quarter of 2021 and a loss of $3.6 million ($0.06 per diluted share) in the fourth quarter of 2020. The fourth quarter of 2021 reflected stronger revenue due to increased sales in the quarter, higher realized pricing and a non-cash deferred tax benefit, compared with the fourth quarter of 2020. The fourth quarter of 2021 included a $16.1 non-cash deferred tax benefit, partially offset by a $1.8 million loss on derivative instruments, while the third quarter 2021 included a $22.7 million non-cash deferred tax benefit, partially offset by a $5.1 million loss on derivative instruments.

Adjusted Net Income for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased to $12.5 million ($0.21 per diluted share) from Adjusted Net Income of $10.0 million or ($0.17 per diluted share) in the third quarter of 2021 primarily as a result of lower production costs and DD&A costs, partially offset by higher realized losses on derivatives. Adjusted Net Income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was a loss of $5.6 million ($0.10 per diluted share).

Adjusted EBITDAX totaled $22.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, a decrease of 3% compared with $23.3 million in the third quarter of 2021 driven by higher realized losses on derivates partially offset by lower production costs. However, fourth quarter 2021 EBITDAX was more than six times the $3.5 million generated in the same period in 2020. Adjusted EBITDAX for the fourth quarter of 2021 was higher compared to the prior year primarily due to improved realized prices and increased sales partially offset by higher production costs and higher realized losses on derivatives.

Production in the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 62% to 7,554 BOPD from 4,662 BOPD in the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily due to the Sasol Acquisition, and was down slightly from 7,694 BOPD in the third quarter of 2021. Sales volumes totaled 709,000 barrels in the fourth quarter of 2021, down 4% compared to 741,000 barrels in the third quarter of 2021, and up 144% compared to 290,000 barrels for the same period in 2020. The increase in volumes year-over year is primarily due to the additional ownership interest in the Etame field following the closing of the acquisition of Sasol's 27.8% working interest on February 25, 2021 (the "Sasol Acquisition"). In the fourth quarter of 2021, realized pricing increased 6% compared to the third quarter of 2021, and 84% compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.

Total production expense, excluding workovers, increased compared to the same period in 2020 primarily due to the increase in working interest associated with the Sasol Acquisition and was lower compared to the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to lower sales and the costs associated with the annual turnaround recorded in the third quarter of 2021.  Production expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 included approximately $0.6 million in additional costs related to proactive employee-related measures taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. VAALCO expects to benefit from production cost savings associated with the FSO conversion in late 2022.  Workover expense incurred in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $4.5 million, and in the third quarter of 2021 totaled $3.8 million.  VAALCO had two planned workovers completed in 2021, one in the fourth quarter and one in the third quarter, both of which were successfully completed.

 

Depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") expense in the fourth quarter of 2021 on a per NRI barrel of crude oil sales basis was higher compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 due to higher depletable costs associated with the Sasol Acquisition.  There was a decrease in DD&A on a per NRI barrel of crude oil sales basis in the fourth quarter 2021 compared to the prior quarter driven by the positive revisions to reserves recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021.

 

General and administrative ("G&A") expense, excluding stock-based compensation, in the fourth quarter of 2021 was lower than both the third quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2020 primarily as a result of lower wages and salaries and lower legal costs.

 

Non-cash stock-based compensation expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $0.4 million. For the fourth quarter of 2021, stock-based compensation expense included non-SARs stock-based expense of $0.3 million and SARs related expense of $0.1 million. For the third quarter of 2021, stock-based compensation expense was not material.  For the fourth quarter of 2020 stock-based compensation expense was $2.2 million and was comprised of non-SARs related expense of $0.3 million and SARs related expense of $1.9 million.

 

Foreign income taxes are attributable to Gabon and are settled by the government taking their oil in-kind. Income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2021 was $(10.9) million . This was comprised of $(16.1) million of deferred tax benefit and a current tax expense of $5.2 million.  Income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $(17.2) million . This was comprised of $(22.7) million of deferred tax benefit and a current tax expense of $5.5 million. The deferred income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2021 included a $(22.3) million deferred tax benefit from the partial reversal of the valuation allowance.   Income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2020 was a benefit of $(0.8) million and included $(2.8) million of deferred tax benefit and a current tax expense of $2.0 million.  For all three periods, the overall effective tax rate was impacted by non-deductible items associated with operations and deducting foreign taxes rather than crediting them for United States tax purposes.  

 

Financial Update - Full Year 2021

 

Reported net income for the full year 2021 of $81.8 million, or $1.37 per diluted share with Adjusted Net Income of $39.6 million, or $0.67 per diluted share. This compares to a net loss for the full year 2020 of $48.2 million, or $0.83 per diluted share while Adjusted Net Income was $9.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share. The year-over-year increase in net income is primarily the result of increased sales and higher oil pricing and change in deferred tax benefits of $66.6 million. Also, in 2020 there was a $30.6 million impairment charge to crude oil and natural gas properties as a result of lower oil prices. The Company generated $85.8 million in Adjusted EBITDAX for the full year 2021 compared to $26.6 million in 2020. The increase was primarily the result of stronger revenues as a result of increased crude oil prices and higher sales volumes.

 

Production increased by 46% to 7,119 NRI BOPD or 2.6 MMBO for full year 2021 compared to the prior year, driven by the additional production associated with the Sasol acquisition. For the full year 2020, production was 4,853 NRI BOPD or 1.8 MMBO. For the full year 2021, VAALCO's realized crude oil sales price was $70.66 per barrel, or 75% higher than $40.29 per barrel that was realized for full year 2020. Sales volumes increased 67% to 2.7 MMBO in 2021 from 1.6 MMBO in 2020.

 

For the full year 2021, total production expense, excluding workovers, increased to $72.6 million compared to $34.8 million in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by higher sales and costs associated with the Sasol acquisition. The production expense rate per barrel of crude oil sales, excluding workover costs, was $26.77 in 2021 and $21.38 in 2020. Workover expense for 2021 totaled $8.7 million and for 2020 totaled $2.5 million.

 

For the full year 2021, G&A, excluding stock-based compensation, was $12.3 million, an increase of 16% compared with full year 2020 G&A, excluding stock-based compensation, of $10.6 million. The increase year-over-year was primarily due to additional severance costs associated with changes in key personnel. G&A includes $2.5 million and $0.1 million of stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, that was primarily expense related to SARs.

 

Capital Investments/Balance Sheet

 

For the fourth quarter of 2021, net capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, totaled $8.1 million on a cash basis which included expenditures related to drilling the Etame 8H-ST well, additional long-lead items for the 2021/2022 drilling program and FSO conversion related costs. VAALCO invested $25.5 million on an accrual basis during the quarter. For the full year 2021, the Company invested $16.6 million in cash basis capital expenditures, and $36.5 million on an accrual basis . Additionally, VAALCO invested $22.5 million in the Sasol Acquisition in early 2021.

 

At the end of the fourth quarter of 2021, VAALCO had an unrestricted cash balance of $48.7 million which includes $3.2 million of cash attributable to net non-operating joint venture owner advances. The year-end cash balance did not include the proceeds from the December 2021 lifting of $22.5 million which were received in January 2022. Working capital at December 31, 2021 was $4.0 million compared with $0.8 million at September 30, 2021 and $11.4 million at December 31, 2020. Adjusted Working Capital(1) at December 31, 2021 was $13.7 million and $13.5 million at September 30, 2021, and $24.3 million at December 31, 2020.

 

Cash Dividend Policy

 

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend policy of $0.0325 per common share per quarter (full year 2022 annualized of $0.13 per share). The first dividend is payable on March 18, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on February 18, 2022. Subject to approval by the Board of Directors, the Company expects another quarterly dividend will be declared for the second quarter of 2022.

 

Hedging

 

The Company entered into several hedging contracts in 2021 with the goal of ensuring cash flow generation to fund the 2021/2022 drilling campaign and FSO conversion. The Company has continued to opportunistically hedge a portion of its expected production in 2022 to lock in strong cash flow generation to assist in funding its capital program and dividend.  At the end of January 2022, legacy hedges of 60,794 barrels of oil ("BO") per month priced at $53.10 per barrel of dated Brent, expired. VAALCO added hedges in January 2022 for 125,000 BO per month for July, August, September 2022 at a dated Brent price of $76.53 per BO, and 78,000 BO per month for April, May and June 2022 at a dated Brent price of $85.01 per BO.

At December 31, 2021, the unexpired commodity swaps were for an underlying quantity of 712 Mbbls and had a fair value of $4.8 million and is reflected in "Accrued liabilities and other" line of the consolidated balance sheet.

Production expense, excluding workovers, is expected to be $17.5 to $19.0 million, or $28.00 to $31.00 per barrel of oil sales for the first quarter, and $73.0 to $83.0 million, or $19.50 to $22.50 per barrel of oil sales for the full year 2022. VAALCO expects to benefit from production cost savings associated with the FSO conversion in late 2022.  The Company is currently projecting one workover for the year, as such, the total cost for workovers is expected to be between $2 and $4 million, net to VAALCO.  Cash G&A is expected to be between $2.5 and $3.5 million for the first quarter and $9.5 to $12.5 million for the full year 2022.

Guidance for capital expenditures net to VAALCO for the first quarter are $36.0 to $44.0 million and $90.0 to $110.0 million for the full year of 2022, which includes its 2022 drilling program and costs associated with the FSO conversion and related field reconfiguration. The Company is expected to complete four wells as part of its 2021/2022 drilling campaign. VAALCO expects to fund its 2022 capital expenditures fully from cash on hand and cash flow from operations.

 

The Company has provided all of its guidance metrics in the Q4 2021 Supplemental Information presentation that will be posted to its website tomorrow morning prior to the conference call.

Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.  VAALCO disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

Inside Information

 

This announcement contains inside information as defined in Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 on market abuse ("MAR") and is made in accordance with the Company's obligations under article 17 of MAR.

 

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release contains crude oil and natural gas metrics which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation as classified by the SEC and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods.

 

PV-10 Value and Probable Reserves

 

PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents the period-end present value of estimated future cash inflows from VAALCO's reserves, less future development and production costs, discounted at 10% per annum to reflect timing of future cash flows.  PV-10 values for both SEC reserves and 2P CPR reserves have been calculated using SEC pricing assumptions in the case of SEC reserves and using VAALCO's management assumptions for escalated crude oil price and cost in the case of 2P CPR reserves. PV-10 generally differs from standardized measure, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it generally does not include the effects of income taxes; however, VAALCO's PV-10 does include the effect of income taxes. PV-10 is a widely used measure within the industry and is commonly used by securities analysts, banks and credit rating agencies to evaluate the estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves on a comparative basis across companies or specific properties. VAALCO's PV-10 on an SEC basis and 2P CPR basis includes the effect of income taxes, and the PV-10 on an SEC basis is the same as its standardized measure for the periods presented herein.  Neither PV-10 nor the standardized measure purports to represent the fair value of the Company's crude oil and natural gas reserves.

 

VAALCO has provided summations of its PV-10 for its proved and probable reserves on a 2P CPR basis in this press release. The SEC strictly prohibits companies from aggregating proved, probable and possible reserves in filings with the SEC due to the different levels of certainty associated with each reserve category. GAAP does not provide a measure of estimated future net cash flows for reserves other than proved reserves and accordingly it is not practicable to reconcile the PV-10 value of 2P CPR reserves to a GAAP measure, such as the standardized measure. Investors should be cautioned that estimates of PV-10 of probable reserves, as well as the underlying volumetric estimates, are inherently more uncertain of being recovered and realized than comparable measures for proved reserves.  Further, because estimates of probable reserve volumes have not been adjusted for risk due to this uncertainty of recovery, their summation may be of limited use. Nonetheless, VAALCO believes that PV-10 estimates for probable reserves present useful information for investors about the future net cash flows of its reserves in the absence of a comparable GAAP measure such as standardized measure.

 

2P CPR Reserves  

2P CPR reserves represent proved plus probable estimates as reported by NSAI and prepared in accordance with the definitions and guidelines set forth in the 2018 Petroleum Resources Management Systems approved by the Society of Petroleum Engineers as of December 31, 2021 using escalated crude oil price and cost assumptions made by VAALCO's management. The SEC definitions of proved and probable reserves are different from the definitions contained in the 2018 Petroleum Resources Management Systems approved by the Society of Petroleum Engineers as of December 31, 2021. As a result, 2P CPR reserves may not be comparable to United States standards. The SEC requires United States oil and gas reporting companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved reserves after the deduction of royalties and production due to others but permits the optional disclosure of probable and possible reserves in accordance with SEC definitions.

 

2P CPR reserves and the PV-10 value for 2P CPR reserves, as calculated herein, may differ from the SEC definitions of proved and probable reserves because:

· Pricing for SEC is the average closing price on the first trading day of each month for the prior year which is then held flat in the future, while the 2P CPR pricing is based on management pricing assumptions for future Brent oil pricing for 2022 : $70.00 escalated 2% per year thereafter through 2031;

· Lease operating expenses are not escalated in the SEC case, while for the 2P CPR reserves case they are escalated at 2% annually beginning on January 1, 2023.

 

Management uses 2P CPR reserves as a measurement of operating performance because it assists management in strategic planning, budgeting and economic evaluations and in comparing the operating performance of the Company to other companies. Management believes that the presentation of 2P CPR reserves is useful to its international investors, particularly those that invest in companies trading on the London Stock Exchange, in order to better compare the Company's reserve information to other London Stock Exchange-traded companies that report similar measures. VAALCO also believes that this information enhances its investors' and securities analysts' understanding of its business. However, 2P CPR reserves should not be used as a substitute for proved reserves calculated in accordance with the definitions prescribed by the SEC. In evaluating VAALCO's business, investors should rely on the Company's SEC proved reserves and consider 2P CPR reserves only supplementally.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

Management uses Adjusted Net Income to evaluate operating and financial performance and believes the measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash and/or other items that management does not consider to be indicative of the Company's performance from period to period. Management also believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors to evaluate and compare the Company's operating and financial performance across periods, as well as facilitating comparisons to others in the Company's industry. Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure and as used herein represents net income before discontinued operations, impairment of proved crude oil and natural gas properties, deferred income tax expense, unrealized commodity derivative loss, gain on the Sasol Acquisition and non-cash and other items.

 

Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by VAALCO's management and by external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, lenders, rating agencies, investors and others who follow the industry, as an indicator of the Company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt. Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure and as used herein represents net income before discontinued operations, interest income net, income tax expense, depletion, depreciation and amortization, exploration expense, impairment of proved crude oil and natural gas properties, non-cash and other items including stock compensation expense, gain on the Sasol Acquisition and unrealized commodity derivative loss.

 

Management uses Adjusted Working Capital as a measurement tool to assess the working capital position of the Company's continuing operations excluding leasing obligations because it eliminates the impact of discontinued operations as well as the impact of lease liabilities.  Under the lease accounting standards, lease liabilities related to assets used in joint operations include both the Company's share of expenditures as well as the share of lease expenditures which its non-operator joint venture owners' will be obligated to pay under joint operating agreements. Adjusted Working Capital is a non-GAAP financial measure and as used herein represents working capital excluding working capital attributable to discontinued operations and current liabilities associated with lease obligations.

 

Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Net Income have significant limitations, including that they do not reflect the Company's cash requirements for capital expenditures, contractual commitments, working capital or debt service. Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Working Capital should not be considered as substitutes for net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Net Income exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income (loss) and operating income (loss) and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, the Company's Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Working Capital may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

 

The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Working Capital.
