Open the filing on EDGARAmplify Energy Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results and Approval of Share Repurchase Program
HOUSTON, August 10, 2026 -- Amplify Energy Corp. (NYSE: AMPY) (“Amplify,” the “Company,” “us,” or “our”) today announced operating and financial results for the second quarter of 2026.
On August 6, 2026, the Company's board of directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $15.0 million of Amplify's common stock, representing approximately 10% of the Company's currently outstanding shares using recent prices. Under the share repurchase program, repurchases may begin after market open on August 11, 2026 and continue through and including December 31, 2026.
Recent Developments and Second Quarter Highlights
- Recently, Amplify achieved the following milestones:
- Received approval from the board of directors to repurchase up to $15.0 million of Amplify’s common stock
Using recent prices, a fully executed program would represent approximately 10% of outstanding shares
- Continued the development program at Beta, drilling two additional wells with promising initial results:
Completed the C29 well in June with a peak IP30 of approximately 525 Bopd
Completed the C16 well in July with a peak IP30 of approximately 550 Bopd
- During the second quarter of 2026, the Company:
- Averaged total production of 6.8 Mbopd (100% oil), an increase of approximately 6% compared to the prior quarter
- Reported net income of $17.3 million in the second quarter compared to a net loss of $38.1 million in the first quarter, primarily driven by changes in commodity derivative instruments.
- Generated net cash provided by operating activities of $2.8 million.
- Delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $8.6 million and Adjusted Net Loss of $1.7 million, an increase of $4.8 million and a decrease of $2.1 million, respectively, compared to the prior quarter
- Obtained royalty relief at the Beta field, effective May 1, 2026, lowering the Company's royalty burden from approximately 25.0% to 12.5%
Since May 1, 2026, royalty relief increased Amplify’s average net production by over 600 bbls/d while improving revenue and cash flow by approximately $3.0 million (approximately $1.5 million per month)
- Continued the strategic evaluation of Bairoil’s potential role in carbon storage and low-carbon initiatives
Effective June 1, 2026, Amplify amended its CO₂ purchase agreement, which increased Amplify’s realized rebate from Section 45Q tax credits, thereby lowering Amplify’s lease operating expenses
As a result of the amended agreement, Amplify expects to further reduce its CO₂ costs at Bairoil by approximately $5.0 million per year
- As of June 30, 2026, Amplify had no outstanding debt under its revolving credit facility and liquidity of $36.2 million, consisting of $21.2 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of approximately $15.0 million
(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.
Dan Furbee, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Amplify continues to focus on activities that we expect will meaningfully enhance shareholder returns. In the past two months, Amplify successfully drilled and completed the C29 and C16 wells at Beta. Both wells were drilled in the Joulters fault block and are producing at expected rates. These two new wells, in combination with royalty relief, have meaningfully increased our net production, revenue and cash flow at Beta.”
Mr. Furbee continued, “At Bairoil, we continued to make progress on our carbon storage initiatives. Effective June 1, we amended our CO₂ purchase agreement to increase the amount of CO₂ delivered to the field. This additional CO₂ also qualifies for Section 45Q tax credits, which will generate a larger rebate from our CO₂ supplier. We expect the amended contract will lower lease operating expenses by approximately $5.0 million per year. This contract amendment helps demonstrate the intrinsic value associated with our existing CO₂ infrastructure and available pore space.”
Mr. Furbee concluded, “In addition to the positive developments at Beta and Bairoil, the Company’s board of directors approved a share repurchase program. We believe the Company’s stock is trading at a meaningful discount to its net asset value and repurchasing up to $15.0 million will be accretive to our shareholders. We also believe returning capital to shareholders demonstrates our commitment to allocating capital to the opportunities demonstrating the highest risk adjusted return.”
Share Repurchase Program
The board of directors believes that the Company's current share price does not adequately reflect the underlying value of its assets, cash flow generation potential, and long-term strategic opportunities. As a result, the Board has approved a share repurchase program, reflecting its confidence in the Company's outlook and commitment to disciplined capital allocation. The Company believes opportunistic repurchases represent an attractive investment and an effective way to enhance long-term shareholder value. The authorization permits the repurchase of up to $15.0 million of Amplify's common stock, representing approximately 10% of the Company's currently outstanding shares using recent prices. Under the share repurchase program, repurchases may begin after market open on August 11, 2026 and continue through and including December 31, 2026.
Repurchases under the share repurchase program may be made from time to time through open market repurchases or through privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other relevant factors. Open market repurchases may be structured to occur in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of shares of its common stock under this authorization. The Company is not obligated under the share repurchase program to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the Company may terminate or suspend the share repurchase program at any time. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased may depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities.
Bairoil CO₂ Agreement
On June 1, 2026, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Carbon Dioxide Sale and Purchase Agreement with its third-party supplier (the “CO₂ Agreement”). Under the CO₂ Agreement, Amplify’s counterparty continues to supply CO₂ for use in the Company’s enhanced oil recovery operations (“EOR”) in the Lost Soldier-Wertz field in Wyoming. The Company expects the amended agreement, together with the initial CO₂ agreement announced in 2025, will generate approximately $10 million in annual cost savings compared to the prior agreement.
Key Financial Results - 2nd Quarter
During the second quarter of 2026, the Company reported net income of approximately $17.3 million compared to a net loss of $38.1 million in the prior quarter. Net income in the quarter was primarily attributable to a $22.6 million non-cash unrealized gain on commodity derivatives during the period. Excluding the impact of the non-cash unrealized gain on commodity derivatives and additional other one-time impacts, Amplify generated an Adjusted Net Loss of $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2026. Second quarter 2026
Adjusted EBITDA was $8.6 million and Free Cash Flow was negative $12.9 million. Both Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow were in line with expectations.
| Second Quarter | First Quarter |
|---|
| $ in millions | 2026 | 2026 |
| Net income (loss) | $17.3 | $(38.1) |
| Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $2.8 | $4.5 |
| Average daily production (MBoe/d) | 6.8 | 6.4 |
| Total revenues excluding hedges | $52.7 | $37.5 |
| Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) | $8.6 | $3.8 |
| Adjusted net income (loss), (a non-GAAP financial measure) | $(1.7) | $(3.9) |
| Total capital | $20.7 | $21.0 |
| Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) | $(12.9) | $(18.1) |
Corporate Production and Pricing
During the second quarter of 2026, average daily production was approximately 6.8 MBopd and 100% crude oil. Compared to the prior quarter, Beta average daily production increased by approximately 11%, while Bairoil average daily production increased by 1%. As previously announced Amplify successfully obtained royalty relief at its Beta field effective May 1, 2026, which reduced the Company’s royalty burden by approximately 50.0% (from 25.0% to approximately 12.5%), resulting in higher production and revenue. Royalty relief is subject to pricing and production thresholds, detailed further in our latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, which Amplify expects to file with the SEC on August 10, 2026.
Total oil revenues for the second quarter of 2026 were approximately $52.6 million, before the impact of derivatives. The Company realized a net loss on commodity derivatives of $13.6 million during the second quarter of 2026.
The following table sets forth information regarding average realized crude sales prices for the periods indicated:
| Crude Oil ($/Bbl) |
|---|
| Three | Three |
|---|
| Months | Months |
|---|
| Ended | Ended |
|---|
| June 30, | March 31, |
|---|
| 2026 | 2026 |

| Average Brent Price | $96.80 | $77.67 |
| Average WTI Price | $92.79 | $71.93 |
| Average sales price exclusive of realized derivatives | $85.41 | $64.93 |
| Realized derivatives | (22.13) | (4.43) |
| Average sales price inclusive of realized derivatives | $63.27 | $60.49 |
Marketing Update
Over the past several quarters at Beta, Amplify has had to navigate changing market dynamics as refining capacity in California declines, reducing the number of available outlets for locally produced crude oil. As a result, marketing deducts have increased, reducing Amplify’s realized oil price. In response, the Company is pursuing multiple paths, including offshore buoys, new pipeline connections, and trucking, to increase its available markets and improve pricing. For the balance of the year, Amplify has updated its guidance to reflect larger deducts in its realized commodity price assumptions.
Costs and Expenses
In the second quarter of 2026, lease operating expenses were approximately $22.7 million, which was in line with expectations. Due to changes in the CO2 agreement and ongoing cost saving initiatives at Beta, full-year 2026 lease operating expense guidance has been reduced to $80.0 to $95.0 million.
Severance and ad valorem taxes in the second quarter of 2026 were approximately $3.0 million, which was higher than the prior quarter due to higher physical prices. Severance and ad valorem taxes as a percentage of revenue were approximately 5.8% in the second quarter of 2026 and were in line with guidance.
Amplify incurred approximately $0.7 million, or $1.11 per Bbl, of gathering, processing and transportation (“GP&T”) expenses in the second quarter of 2026.
Cash G&A expenses in the second quarter of 2026 were approximately $5.1 million compared to $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2026. The Company expects full-year cash G&A to be in line with our previously announced guidance range of $17.0 to $22.0 million.
In the second quarter of 2026, depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense totaled approximately $4.9 million and net interest expense was $0.9 million. As noted in last quarter’s earnings release, interest expense is primarily related to surety bond premiums for the Beta asset. Amplify recorded a $5.9 million deferred income tax expense for the second quarter of 2026.
Second Quarter Capital Investments
Cash capital investment during the second quarter of 2026 was approximately $20.7 million. The Company’s capital allocation in the quarter was primarily invested in development drilling and recompletions at Beta.
The following table details Amplify’s capital invested during the second quarter of 2026:
| Second Quarter | Year to Date |
|---|
| 2026 Capital | 2026 Capital |
|---|
| ($ MM) | ($ MM) |
|---|
| Bairoil | $0.6 | $1.0 |
| Beta | 20.1 | $40.7 |
| Total Capital Invested | $20.7 | $41.7 |
Operations Update
Beta
At Beta, Amplify continued to advance its development program during and shortly after the second quarter, drilling the C29 and C16 wells in the Joulters fault block targeting the D Sand reservoir. The C29 well was completed in June and achieved a peak IP30 rate of approximately 525 Bopd, while the C16 well was completed in July and delivered a peak IP30 rate of approximately 550 Bopd. At current commodity prices, Amplify expects both wells to achieve payout in approximately 15 months and generate an internal rate of return (IRR) of approximately 100%.
Early production performance from both wells remains consistent with the Company's established type curves. These results further demonstrate the quality, predictability, and repeatability of the D Sand development program and reinforce management's confidence in the field's remaining drilling inventory and future development potential.
In addition to the contribution from new wells, Beta began benefiting from royalty relief during the second quarter following the May 1, 2026, effective date of the program. The royalty relief materially increased net production, revenue, and cash flow during the quarter. Because the second quarter reflected only a partial-quarter benefit from royalty relief and only a limited contribution from the C29 and C16 wells, management expects future quarters to benefit from a meaningful increase in net production, revenue and cash flow as both royalty relief and recent development activity are reflected over full reporting periods.
Beyond drilling, Amplify sees additional value creation opportunities through field optimization initiatives. During the second half of 2026, the Company plans to focus on 1) waterflood and pressure maintenance optimization efforts in portions of the reservoir that have experienced reduced injection support, and 2) targeted workover projects designed to restore production from existing wells that have been offline due to pump failures that occurred during the drilling campaign in the first half of 2026. Management believes these lower-capital projects can generate attractive returns while improving overall field performance.
As part of its ongoing capital allocation process, Amplify is evaluating the appropriate level of development activity for the remainder of 2026. While the Company remains confident in the quality of its drilling inventory at Beta, management is considering all alternatives with respect to its go-forward capital allocation. Given the Company's recently approved share repurchase program and management's view that Amplify's shares trade below intrinsic value, the Company may reduce or defer portions of its remaining 2026 drilling activity in order to generate the highest risk adjusted returns for its shareholders.
Bairoil
At Bairoil, Amplify continues to execute a strategy focused on maximizing the value of its extensive CO₂ infrastructure, available pore space and its recently obtained certification under the CSA ANSI/ISO EOR Operations Management Plan. During the second quarter, the Company amended its CO₂ supply agreement, creating an opportunity to receive additional economic benefits associated with CO₂ volumes delivered to the field. Management views this agreement as an important first step in monetizing strategic assets that have historically been undervalued in the Company's market valuation.
The amended agreement not only lowers the Company's net cost of CO₂ but also allows Amplify to participate in value generated from carbon-related incentives associated with CO₂ injected and retained within the reservoir. As a result, the agreement creates a new rebate and cost-saving opportunity that is largely independent of commodity prices and demonstrates how the Company's existing carbon management infrastructure can generate additional shareholder value beyond traditional oil production.
In addition, recent increases in oil prices have improved the economics of operating additional compression capacity at Bairoil. As a result, Amplify has elected to increase CO₂ circulation rates through the reservoir by operating additional compressors following recent repairs and optimization efforts at the CO₂ plant. While this strategy is expected to increase lease operating expenses due to higher power and compression costs, management believes the incremental oil production generated by higher CO₂ circulation rates will more than offset the additional operating expense and enhance field-level free cash flow. This approach reflects Amplify's continued focus on dynamically optimizing operations in response to changing commodity prices and maximizing returns from its enhanced oil recovery program.
Looking forward, management believes the amended CO₂ agreement highlights the broader strategic opportunity at Bairoil. The Company's available pore space, CO₂ infrastructure, and carbon management capabilities create the potential for additional commercial arrangements that could further enhance the value of these assets while simultaneously supporting continued oil production and enhanced recovery operations. Amplify believes this combination of traditional enhanced oil recovery operations and carbon-related value creation provides a differentiated opportunity to generate long-term shareholder value.
Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity
On June 10, 2026, the Company completed its semi-annual borrowing base redetermination, which was reaffirmed at $25.0 million and elected commitments of $15.0 million.
As of June 30, 2026, Amplify had no debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility. As of such date, Amplify’s liquidity was approximately $36.2 million, consisting of $21.2 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of approximately $15.0 million.
Full-Year 2026 Guidance
Based on the aforementioned changes in capital allocation, commodity prices and marketing conditions, Amplify is providing updated guidance for 2026. Despite these changes, the Company’s projected 2026 Adjusted EBITDA remains relatively unchanged from its previous guidance.
The following 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 $75/Bbl (WTI) and on the assumption that market demand and prices for oil will continue at levels that allow for economic production of these products.

(3) Amplify believes that a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking information to the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP cannot be made available without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures would require Amplify to predict the timing and likelihood of future transactions and other items that are difficult to accurately predict. Neither of these forward-looking measures, nor their probable significance, can be quantified with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures is not provided.
(4) Share Repurchases reflect the announced authorization from Amplify's board of directors to repurchase up to $15.0 million of Amplify's common stock. Amplify is not obligated to acquire any particular amount of common stock.
Hedging
Amplify maintains a robust hedge portfolio designed to support cash flows and provide downside protection in periods of commodity price volatility, further enhancing forward cash flow visibility. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company entered into Brent crude oil swaps covering portions of 2027 with a weighted average price of $75.00/Bbl. As of June 30, 2026, the Company was hedged approximately 70 - 75% of its expected PDP oil production for the remainder of 2026 and approximately 55 - 65% of its expected PDP oil production for 2027.
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.
