Chad L. Stephens, President and CEO, commented, “PHX delivered solid results in 2024. Notably, we achieved our highest total corporate production volumes for a full calendar year since 2019. We also recorded our two highest royalty production volume quarters in company history during 2024, specifically the second and third calendar quarters. The strength of our asset base allowed us to generate strong cash flow, reduce debt and return capital to stockholders through our dividend.” Mr. Stephens added, “We are continuing our previously announced process with RBC to evaluate possible strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value.
“As referenced in our subsequent events, we closed on the sale of approximately 165,000 net mineral acres for $8.0 million. These minerals are old legacy minerals located in the U.S. on the margins of various basins with little to no near-term developmental resource potential, have no cash flow or reserve value associated with them and have had no leasing activity over the last 6 years,” concluded Mr. Stephens.

Quarter Ended Dec. 31, 2024 Results
The Company recorded net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2024, as compared to net income of $2.5 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023. The change in net income was principally the result of an increase in losses associated with our derivative contracts, and an increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expenses, partially offset by an increase in natural gas, oil, and NGL sales, a decrease in production and ad valorem taxes, a decrease in interest expense, and a decrease in general and administrative (G&A) expenses.
Natural gas, oil and NGL revenue increased $0.3 million, or 4%, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2024, compared to the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023, due to an increase in natural gas and oil volumes of 7% and 10%, respectively, and an increase in natural gas prices of 4%, partially offset by decreases in oil, and NGL prices of 11%, and 4%, respectively, and a decrease in NGL volumes of 9%.
The increase in royalty production volumes during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2024, as compared to the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023, resulted primarily from new wells being brought online in the Haynesville Shale and SCOOP plays.
The Company had a net loss on derivative contracts of ($1.0) million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2024, comprised of a ($1.5) million unrealized non-cash loss on derivatives and a $0.5 million gain on settled derivatives, as compared to a net gain of $3.2 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023. The change in net loss on derivative contracts was due to the Company’s settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in Dec. 31, 2024 pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.
Year Ended Dec. 31, 2024 Results
The Company recorded net income of $2.3 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, as compared to a net income of $13.9 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the year ended Dec. 31, 2023. The change in net income was principally the result of a decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales, a decrease in gains associated with our derivative contracts, a decrease in gains on asset sales, an increase in transportation, gathering and marketing expenses, and an increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, partially offset by a decrease in the income tax provision.
Natural gas, oil and NGL revenue decreased $2.8 million, or 8%, for the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, compared to the year ended Dec. 31, 2023, due to a decreases in natural gas, oil, and NGL prices of 16%, 3%, and 1%, respectively, and decreases in oil and NGL volumes of 2% and 3%, respectively, partially offset by an increase in gas volumes of 7%.
The production increase in royalty volumes during the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, as compared to the year ended Dec. 31, 2023, resulted primarily from new wells in the Haynesville Shale and SCOOP plays coming online. The production decrease in working interest volumes during the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, as compared to the year ended Dec. 31, 2023, resulted from natural production decline and 2023 working interest divestitures.
The Company had a net gain on derivative contracts of $0.3 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, comprised of a $4.3 million gain on settled derivatives and a $4.0 million non-cash loss on derivatives, as compared to a net gain of $6.9 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2023. The change in net gain on derivative contracts was due to the Company’s settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in Dec. 31, 2024 pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.
Operations Update
During the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2024, the Company converted 71 gross (0.22 net) wells to producing status, including 21 gross (0.03 net) wells in the Haynesville and 43 gross (0.18 net) wells in the SCOOP, compared to 46 gross (0.10 net) wells converted in the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023.
At Dec. 31, 2024, the Company had a total of 225 gross (0.91 net) wells in progress and permits across its mineral positions, compared to 278 gross (0.93 net) wells in progress and permits at Sept. 30, 2024. As of Feb. 3, 2025, 16 rigs were operating on the Company’s acreage and 62 rigs were operating within 2.5 miles of its acreage.

Royalty Reserves Update
At Dec. 31, 2024, proved royalty reserves decreased 9% to 52.5 Bcfe compared to 57.8 Bcfe at Dec. 31, 2023. Proved developed royalty reserves increased by 0.1 Bcfe from Dec. 31, 2023 to Dec. 31, 2024 due to execution of our acquisition strategy and conversion of high interest undeveloped reserves to producing in the Haynesville and SCOOP. Proved undeveloped royalty reserves decreased by 5.4 Bcfe from Dec. 31, 2023 to Dec. 31, 2024 primarily due to transfers to proved developed royalty reserves, and those transferred proved undeveloped royalty reserves were not replaced due to reduced permitting activity in the Haynesville shale as a result of lower gas prices.

Total Reserves Update
At Dec. 31, 2024, proved reserves were 63.7 Bcfe, as calculated by Cawley, Gillespie and Associates, Inc. (“CG&A”), the Company’s independent consulting petroleum engineering firm. This was an 11% decrease, compared to the 71.2 Bcfe of proved reserves at Dec. 31, 2023. Total proved developed reserves decreased 4% to 56.2 Bcfe, as compared to Dec. 31, 2023 reserve volumes, mainly due to pricing. SEC prices used for the Company’s Dec. 31, 2024 reserve report prepared by CG&A averaged $2.05 per Mcf for natural gas, $73.48 per barrel for oil and $20.97 per barrel for NGL, compared to $2.67 per Mcf for natural gas, $76.85 per barrel for oil and $21.98 per barrel for NGL for the Company’s Dec. 31, 2023 reserve report prepared by CG&A. These prices reflect net prices received at the wellhead.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation
This press release includes certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including Regulation G. These non-GAAP financial measures are calculated using GAAP amounts in the Company’s financial statements. These measures, detailed below, are provided in addition to, not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes thereto), included in the Company’s SEC filings and posted on its website.
Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
The Company defines “adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, excluding non-cash gains (losses) on derivatives and gains (losses) on asset sales and including cash receipts from (payments on) off-market derivatives and restricted stock and deferred directors’ expense. The Company has included a presentation of adjusted EBITDA because it recognizes that certain investors consider this amount to be a useful means of measuring the Company’s ability to meet its debt service obligations and evaluating its financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA for the quarters indicated:

Adjusted Pretax Net Income (Loss) Reconciliation
“Adjusted pretax net income (loss)” is defined as earnings before taxes, excluding non-cash gains (losses) on derivatives. The Company has included a presentation of adjusted pretax net income (loss) because it recognizes that certain investors consider this amount to be a useful means of measuring the Company’s ability to meet its debt service obligations and evaluating its financial performance. Adjusted pretax net income (loss) has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA (TTM) Reconciliation
“Debt-to-adjusted EBITDA (TTM)” is defined as the ratio of long-term debt to adjusted EBITDA on a trailing 12-month (TTM) basis. The Company has included a presentation of debt-to-adjusted EBITDA (TTM) because it recognizes that certain investors consider such ratios to be a useful means of measuring the Company’s ability to meet its debt service obligations and for evaluating its financial performance. The debt-to-adjusted EBITDA (TTM) ratio has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of debt-to-adjusted EBITDA (TTM) may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies.
