Shareholder Return Framework
The Company's board of directors approved a dividend of $1.95 per share, payable on December 30, 2022 to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2022. The total reflects the combination of a new, higher quarterly base dividend of $0.50 per share and a quarterly variable dividend of $1.45 per share. Additional details regarding the calculation of the variable dividend can be found in the Company's new investor presentation located on its website.
Civitas CEO Chris Doyle said, “Civitas reported outstanding results this quarter, with production and cash flow exceeding expectations at lower-than-expected capital investments. Our business plan is focused on four pillars that are proven to create value and position us for future success: generating significant free cash flow, maintaining a premier balance sheet, returning cash to shareholders, and leading on ESG. This approach has been and will continue to be a winning formula for our shareholders, our employees, and the communities in which we operate.”

Capital expenditures during the quarter were $237.2 million, which included $16.0 million of land and midstream investments. The Company drilled 47 gross (39.4 net) operated wells, completed 35 gross (28.5 net) operated wells, and turned to sales 52 gross (44.7 net) operated wells during the third quarter.
Net crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids revenue in the third quarter of 2022 was $1.0 billion, compared to $1.2 billion in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily related to lower crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids realized prices, partly offset by an increase in sales volumes. Crude oil accounted for approximately 65% of total revenue for the quarter. Differentials for the Company's crude oil production, relative to WTI, averaged approximately negative $2.68 per barrel in the quarter.
Lease operating expense for the third quarter of 2022, on a unit basis, increased to $2.78 per Boe from $2.63 per Boe in the second quarter of 2022.
Rocky Mountain Infrastructure (“RMI”) net effective cost for the third quarter 2022 was $0.52 per Boe, which consists of $0.57 per Boe of midstream operating expense offset by $0.05 per Boe of RMI operating revenue from working interest partners. RMI operating revenue from working interest partners is based on production volumes, and the fees are not tied to crude oil or natural gas prices.
The Company's general and administrative ("G&A") expenses for the third quarter were $37.3 million, which included $10.2 million in non-cash stock-based compensation and $5.5 million of other non-recurring G&A expenses. Recurring cash G&A, which excludes non-recurring and non-cash items, was $21.6 million for the third quarter of 2022. On a per unit basis, the Company's recurring cash G&A increased 6% sequentially from $1.26 per Boe in the second quarter of 2022 to $1.33 per Boe in the third quarter of 2022.
Recurring cash G&A and RMI net effective cost are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see Schedule 7 and Schedule 8 at the end of this release for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure.
2022 Outlook
The table below provides updated guidance on production, expenses and realized prices. The Company expects to pay $75-125 million in cash income taxes for 2022 assuming $90.00/Bbl WTI oil for the remainder of the year.

Announces Governance Enhancements
Following a careful review by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company’s governance profile, Civitas today announced a series of governance enhancements intended to further increase the Board’s accountability to shareholders:
The Board adopted and approved, effective immediately, amendments to the Company’s bylaws, which provide, among other things:
- for majority voting in uncontested director elections, and
- for “proxy access” that allows a stockholder, or a group of stockholders to nominate and include in our annual meeting proxy materials director nominees, subject to certain conditions.
In addition, the Board approved and recommended for adoption by our stockholders at our 2023 annual meeting amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation that would, among other things:
- allow special meetings to be called at request of stockholders, subject to certain conditions;
- allow stockholders to act by written consent, subject to certain conditions;
Further information on the foregoing governance changes is detailed in the Company’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2022.

(1) Realized prices exclude $0.8 million, $1.6 million, $2.6 million, and $3.3 million of oil transportation and gas gathering revenues from third parties, which do not have associated sales volumes for three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Alternatively, the aforementioned oil transportation and gas gathering revenues from third parties have been netted against the midstream operating expense to arrive at the RMI net effective cost. See Schedule 8 for a reconciliation from GAAP midstream operating expense to RMI net effective cost. |

(2) Recurring cash general and administrative expense excludes stock-based compensation, cash severance costs, and other non-recurring fees. Please see Schedule 7 for a reconciliation from GAAP G&A to recurring cash G&A. |

Schedule 5: Adjusted Net Income (in thousands, except per share amounts, unaudited) |
Adjusted net income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management to present a more comparable, recurring profitability between periods. Management believes adjusted net income provides external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies with additional information to assist in their analysis of the Company. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income after adjusting for (1) the impact of certain non-cash items and one-time transactions and correspondingly (2) the related tax effect in each period. Adjusted net income is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net income to the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted net income.

Schedule 6: Adjusted EBITDAX (in thousands, unaudited) |
Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management to provide a metric of the Company's ability to internally generate funds for exploration and development of oil and gas properties. The metric excludes items which are non-recurring in nature. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies with additional information to assist in their analysis of the Company. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, impairment, exploration expenses and other similar non-cash and non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net income to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDAX.

Schedule 7: Recurring Cash G&A (in thousands, unaudited) |
Recurring cash G&A is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management to provide only the cash portion of its G&A expense, which can be used to evaluate cost management and operating efficiency on a comparable basis from period to period. Management believes recurring cash G&A provides external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies with additional information to assist in their analysis of the Company. The Company defines recurring cash G&A as GAAP general and administrative expense exclusive of the Company's stock-based compensation and one-time charges. The Company refers to recurring cash G&A to provide typical recurring cash G&A costs that are planned for in a given period. Recurring cash G&A is not a fully inclusive measure of general and administrative expense as determined by GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of general and administrative expense to the non-GAAP financial measure of recurring cash G&A.

Schedule 8: RMI Net Effective Cost (in thousands, unaudited) |
RMI net effective cost is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management to assess only the net cash impact the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Rocky Mountain Infrastructure, LLC, has on the Company’s consolidated financials.
