3) Includes restricted cash balance
  • Returned $2.0 million to shareholders through the quarterly dividend and the repurchase of 125,000 shares during the quarter.
  • Realized gains of $0.5 million on Henry Hub (HH) and TGP Z4 basis swaps totaling 690,000 MMBTU, and losses of $0.02 million on WTI CMA swaps totaling 17 MBbls.

Operations Update:

Epsilon's capital expenditures were $3.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. These were primarily related to the completion of one gross (0.25 net) well in Ector Co., Texas and the drilling of two gross (1 net) wells in Alberta, Canada.

The Marcellus wells (7 gross) completed in Q1 2024 were not turned in line during the quarter. Three of the seven wells were put on flowback during the last week of October and are now producing approximately 60 MMcf per day gross. Our operating partner in PA has maintained production curtailments. We estimate that 3-4 MMcf per day of NRI production was offline during the quarter.

Jason Stabell, Epsilon's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We delivered our fourth consecutive quarter of liquids volume, revenue and cash flow growth from our Permian assets continuing to fill the gap while we wait for an improved natural gas pricing environment. In Pennsylvania, we are expecting increased production and cash flow in the fourth quarter and next year aided by improving natural gas fundamentals. Our diversified and growing asset portfolio is well positioned to produce volume and cash flow growth in 2025.

The recently announced entry into Alberta, Canada provides an attractive new area to deploy capital starting in in the fourth quarter. We will provide an update on our 2025 Canadian investment plans once finalized with our operating partner.

Finally, our diversified assets, strong balance sheet and liquidity continue to differentiate us in the small cap energy space."

Adjusted EBITDA $3,743,922 $3,925,127 $12,242,564 $13,730,636

Epsilon defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before (1) net interest expense, (2) taxes, (3) depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense, (4) impairments of natural gas and oil properties, (5) non-cash stock compensation expense, (6) gain or loss on derivative contracts net of cash received or paid on settlement, and (7) other income. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance as determined under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.

Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Epsilon has included Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that EBITDA provides useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures. It further provides investors a helpful measure for comparing operating performance on a "normalized" or recurring basis with the performance of other companies, without giving effect to certain non-cash expenses and other items. This provides management, investors and analysts with comparative information for evaluating the Company in relation to other natural gas and oil companies providing corresponding non-U.S. GAAP financial measures or that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures for financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
