REVISED 2023 PRODUCTION GUIDANCE

As announced on March 8 and April 11, 2023, GeoPark’s 2023 net production year to date has been below its potential of approximately 39,500-40,500 boepd, mainly due to: (i) temporarily shut-in production of the Indico 6 and Indico 7 wells in the CPO-5 block in Colombia for approximately 2,400-3,300 bopd net to GeoPark, and to a lesser extent (ii) shut-in production of approximately 400 bopd in Chile due to ongoing commercial negotiations with ENAP, the oil offtaker, and (iii) the delay of certain drilling activities in Ecuador.

GeoPark’s previous 2023 production guidance was based on the CPO-5 block’s operator expectation that shut-in barrels were going to be back on production in early 2Q2023. Now, those barrels are not expected to be back before July 2023.

As a result, GeoPark had to revise its 2023 annual average production guidance down to 38,000-40,000 boepd (from 39,500-41,500 boepd). Assuming production in the CPO-5 block is normalized in early 3Q2023, GeoPark’s production in 2H2023 is expected to average 39,000-42,000 boepd.

The Indico 6 and Indico 7 wells were drilled in late 2022 and together tested over 11,000 bopd gross (or 3,300 bopd net to GeoPark) and are expected to stabilize production at approximately 8,000 bopd gross (or 2,400 bopd net to GeoPark). These two wells were shut-in (Indico 6 in December 2022 and Indico 7 in early January 2023) after the regulator (ANH) requested that the CPO-5 block operator temporarily suspend production from these wells until definite surface facilities are completed.

GeoPark also adjusted its 2023 capital expenditures down to $180-200 million (from $200-220 million) combining cost efficiencies and the deferral of certain projects in Colombia and Ecuador, which allows GeoPark to maintain its free cash flow guidance.

The table below provides further details about GeoPark’s revised 2023 guidance compared to its previous 2023 guidance.

	May 3, 2023 Revision	Previous 2023 Guidance
Brent Assumption ($ per bbl)	$80-90^7	$80-90
2023 Annual Average Production (boepd)	38,000-40,000	39,500-41,500
Adjusted EBITDA^8	$490-560 million	$510-580 million
2023 Capital Expenditures	$180-200 million	$200-220 million
Cash Income Taxes*	$150-210 million	$150-210 million
Interest Payments	$27-30 million	$27-30 million
Free Cash Flow	$120-140 million	$120-140 million

(*) Cash taxes include GeoPark’s estimates of the impact of the new tax reform in Colombia, irrespective of the timing of its cash impact, expected in 2023 or early 2024.

Production: Oil and gas production in 1Q2023 was 36,578 boepd. Adjusting for divestments in Argentina (completed on January 31, 2022), consolidated oil and gas production decreased by 4% compared to 1Q2022, due to lower production in Colombia, Chile and Brazil, partially offset by higher production in Ecuador.

Since early March 2023, GeoPark shut-in approximately 400 bopd of its oil production in Chile due to ongoing commercial negotiations with the Company’s off-taker, and as a result, Chile is currently producing approximately 1,600-1,800 boepd compared to an average production of 1,988 boepd in 1Q2023.

Oil represented 92% and 89% of total reported production in 1Q2023 and 1Q2022, respectively.

For further details, please refer to the 1Q2023 Operational Update published on April 11, 2023.

Reference and Realized Oil Prices: Brent crude oil prices decreased by 15% to $82.5 per bbl during 1Q2023, and the consolidated realized oil sales price decreased by 21% to $66.7 per bbl in 1Q2023.

Income Tax: Income taxes totaled $37.1 million in 1Q2023 compared to $5.9 million in 1Q2022, mainly resulting from higher profits before income taxes plus the effect of fluctuations of the Colombian peso and the effects of the tax reform in Colombia applicable in fiscal year 2023.

Net Profit: Net profit decreased to $26.3 million in 1Q2023 compared to $31.0 million in 1Q2022.

BALANCE SHEET

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents totaled $145.4 million as of March 31, 2023, compared to $128.8 million as of December 31, 2022.

NOTICE

Additional information about GeoPark can be found in the Invest with Us section on the website at www.geo-park.com.

Rounding amounts and percentages: Certain amounts and percentages included in this press release have been rounded for ease of presentation. Percentage figures included in this press release have not in all cases been calculated on the basis of such rounded figures, but on the basis of such amounts prior to rounding. For this reason, certain percentage amounts in this press release may vary from those obtained by performing the same calculations using the figures in the financial statements. In addition, certain other amounts that appear in this press release may not sum due to rounding.

This press release contains certain oil and gas metrics, including information per share, operating netback, reserve life index and others, which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation 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.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Many of the forward-looking statements contained in this press release can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘could,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘plan,’’ ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘estimate’’ and ‘‘potential,’’ among others.

Forward-looking statements that appear in a number of places in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations, regarding various matters, including, revised 2023 guidance as it relates to annual average production, Adjusted EBITDA, capital expenditures, cash income taxes and free cash flow, as well as tax obligations to be paid during 2023. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions, and on information currently available to the management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to various factors.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update them in light of new information or future developments or to release publicly any revisions to these statements in order to reflect later events or circumstances, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. For a discussion of the risks facing the Company which could affect whether these forward-looking statements are realized, see filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Oil and gas production figures included in this release are stated before the effect of royalties paid in kind, consumption and losses. Annual production per day is obtained by dividing total production by 365 days.

Information about oil and gas reserves: The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proven, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. GeoPark uses certain terms in this press release, such as “PRMS Reserves” that the SEC's guidelines do not permit GeoPark from including in filings with the SEC. As a result, the information in the Company’s SEC filings with respect to reserves will differ significantly from the information in this press release.

NPV10 for PRMS 1P, 2P and 3P reserves is not a substitute for the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flow for SEC proved reserves.

The reserve estimates provided in this release are estimates only, and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual reserves may eventually prove to be greater than, or less than, the estimates provided herein. Statements relating to reserves are by their nature forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Measures: The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and operating netback per boe, which are each non-GAAP measures, are useful because they allow the Company to more effectively evaluate its operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and operating netback per boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as profit for the period before net finance costs, income tax, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash items such as impairments and write-offs of unsuccessful exploration and evaluation assets, accrual of stock options stock awards, unrealized results on commodity risk management contracts and other non-recurring events. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of profit or cash flow as determined by IFRS. The Company excludes the items listed above from profit for the period in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flow from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure and significant and/or recurring write-offs, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the IFRS financial measure of profit for the year or corresponding period, see the accompanying financial tables.

Operating Netback per boe: Operating netback per boe should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flow from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from operating netback per boe are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure and significant and/or recurring write-offs, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of operating netback per boe. The Company’s calculation of operating netback per boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of operating netback per boe to the IFRS financial measure of profit for the year or corresponding period, see the accompanying financial tables.

Net Debt: Net debt is defined as current and non-current borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.

_____________________________

^1 Return on average capital employed is defined as last twelve-month operating profit divided by average total assets minus current liabilities.

^2 Based on GeoPark’s market capitalization as of May 2, 2023.

^3 Scopes 1 and 2.

^4 Brent assumption from May to December 2023.

^5 Assuming a Brent to Vasconia differential averaging $4-5 per bbl from May to December 2023.

^6 Free cash flow is used here as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, mandatory interest payments and cash taxes. 2023 cash taxes include GeoPark’s preliminary estimates of the full impact of the new tax reform in Colombia, irrespective of the timing of its cash impact, expected in 2023 or early 2024. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the 2023 Adjusted EBITDA which is a forward-looking non-GAAP measure, because the Company cannot reliably predict certain of its necessary components, such as write-off of unsuccessful exploration efforts or impairment loss on non-financial assets, etc. Since free cash flow is calculated based on Adjusted EBITDA, for similar reasons, the Company does not provide a quantitative reconciliation of the 2023 free cash flow forecast.

^7 Brent assumption from May to December 2023.

^8 Assuming a Brent to Vasconia differential averaging $4-5 per bbl from May to December 2023.
