Management Commentary
“In our first full quarter post closing Earthstone, Permian Resources delivered strong operational and financial results, building upon our operational momentum from last year,” said Will Hickey, Co-CEO of Permian Resources. “Outstanding well results and higher operational efficiencies across both legacy Permian Resources and Earthstone assets drove robust production during the quarter. This outperformance provided us with the confidence to increase standalone production guidance and represents a solid start to the year.”
“This quarter’s strong results allowed us to generate $324 million of adjusted free cash flow, or $0.42 per share,” said James Walter, Co-CEO of Permian Resources. “Additionally, we continue to enhance our position through strategic leasehold and bolt-on acquisitions, adding high-quality inventory directly offset our most capital efficient asset that immediately competes for capital. We believe Permian Resources’ leading cost structure, basin knowledge and balance sheet strength will continue to drive attractive opportunities to grow our already deep inventory position in an accretive manner.”
Operational and Financial Results
Permian Resources continued the efficient development of its core Delaware Basin acreage position in the first quarter, delivering excellent well results while successfully integrating the Earthstone acquisition. During the quarter, average daily crude oil production was 151,794 barrels of oil per day (“Bbls/d”), an 11% increase compared to the prior quarter. First quarter total production averaged 319,514 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“Boe/d”). “Our strong first quarter production results were primarily driven by better than expected well performance, strong production runtimes and acceleration from continued operational efficiencies,” said Will Hickey, Co-CEO.
The Company was able to accelerate activity due to strong drilling and completion (“D&C”) synergy capture, driving increased D&C efficiencies program-wide. As of May 1, the Company is no longer utilizing any Earthstone drilling rigs or completion crews, and the Earthstone assets are fully integrated from a D&C perspective. Total cash capital expenditures (“capex”) for the first quarter was $520 million.
Realized prices for the quarter were $76.13 per barrel of oil, $1.24 per Mcf of natural gas and $26.47 per barrel of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”), excluding the effects of hedges and GP&T costs. First quarter total controllable cash costs (LOE, GP&T and cash G&A) were $8.11 per Boe. LOE was $5.80 per Boe, GP&T was $1.34 per Boe and Cash G&A was $0.97 per Boe.
For the first quarter, Permian Resources generated net cash provided by operating activities of $648 million, adjusted operating cash flow1 of $844 million ($1.09 per adjusted basic share) and adjusted free cash flow1 of $324 million ($0.42 per adjusted basic share).
Permian Resources continues to maintain a strong financial position and low leverage profile. At March 31, 2024, the Company had $13 million in cash on hand and $60 million drawn under its revolving credit facility. Net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX1 at March 31, 2024 was approximately 1x. Permian Resources recently completed its spring borrowing base redetermination process, whereby elected commitments increased to $2.5 billion from $2.0 billion, providing an additional $500 million of liquidity. The borrowing base remains unchanged at $4.0 billion. Also subsequent to quarter-end, the Company redeemed the $356 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2027.
Earthstone Integration Update
The integration of Earthstone is complete, and synergy capture is meaningfully ahead of schedule. Overall, the Company’s success in both the acceleration and magnitude of synergies captured to-date has resulted in an increase of $50 million to the previously stated annual synergy target of $175 million, bringing the updated synergy target to $225 million per year.
As a result of the successful integration and synergy realization, during the quarter the Company reduced average spud-to-rig release days by 18% per well and average completion days by 50% per well on legacy Earthstone acreage compared to Earthstone’s results from the first half of 2023. Additionally, Permian Resources has improved legacy Earthstone runtimes, benefiting overall production volumes, and realized approximately $1 per Boe of LOE and margin synergies through workover, compressor and midstream optimization initiatives.
“We are pleased to have achieved our original synergy target ahead of schedule and excited to increase our annual target to $225 million,” said James Walter, Co-CEO. “I’m incredibly proud of both legacy companies’ employees for ensuring such a smooth integration. Their hard work and dedication were key to such an efficient synergy capture.”
Recent Acquisitions
Permian Resources continues to strengthen its acreage position in the core of the Delaware Basin, announcing two bolt-on acquisitions and additional properties acquired through its ongoing grassroots program.
The Company recently executed two separate bolt-on transactions located in Eddy County, New Mexico from undisclosed third-parties. The acquired properties consist of predominantly undeveloped acreage offset Permian Resources’ highly capital efficient Parkway asset. Inventory on the acquired acreage comprises two-mile locations with high NRIs which immediately compete for capital. The Company closed upon the first transaction during the first quarter, and the second transaction is currently pending with closing expected to occur late in the second quarter.
“The acquired acreage is analogous to our high-quality Parkway position. This area represents one of the highest returning assets within our portfolio, with returns driven by reduced D&C costs and strong oil cuts. We are excited to begin development on the acquired acreage later this year,” said Will Hickey, Co-CEO.
Additionally, Permian Resources continues to be highly successful executing upon its ground game, consisting of smaller grassroots acquisitions and leasehold transactions. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company completed approximately 150 grassroots leasing and working interest acquisitions. The majority of these acquisitions are slated for near-term development, making them highly accretive.
Combined, the Company added approximately 11,200 net leasehold acres and 4,500 net royalty acres for total consideration of approximately $270 million, reflecting an acquisition value of approximately $9,500 per net leasehold acre and approximately $5,000 per net royalty acre after adjusting for production value. Permian Resources has identified approximately 110 gross operated locations on the acquired properties. In total, these acquisitions contributed less than 100 Boe/d of total production in the first quarter.
(The transactions referenced in this press release are additive to the Company’s Portfolio Optimization Transactions which were announced on January 30, 2024. For maps and further details summarizing Permian Resources’ recent transactions, please see the presentation materials on its website under the Investor Relations tab.)
2024 Operational Plan and Target Update
Based on recent operational results, Permian Resources increased its 2024 standalone oil and total production targets by approximately 2% to 148-152 MBbls/d and 310-330 MBoe/d, respectively, based on the mid-point of guidance. There are no other changes to the Company’s standalone guidance ranges.
The recent acquisitions noted above are expected to add approximately 3,500 Boe/d (~45% oil) of total production during the second half of 2024. The Company expects approximately $50 million of incremental capital expenditures associated with wells spud on the newly acquired acreage during the second half of 2024. Notably, the potential impact of the recently announced acquisitions is not included in the revised standalone guidance.
(For a detailed table summarizing Permian Resources’ revised 2024 standalone operational and financial guidance, please see the Appendix of this press release.)
Shareholder Returns
Permian Resources announced today that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) declared a quarterly base cash dividend of $0.06 per share of Class A common stock, or $0.24 per share on an annualized basis.

We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, incident to the exploration for and development, production, gathering and sale of oil, natural gas and NGLs. Factors which could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, commodity price volatility (including regional basis differentials), uncertainty inherent in estimating oil, natural gas and NGL reserves and in projecting future rates of production, geographic concentration of our operations, lack of availability of drilling and production equipment and services, lack of transportation and storage capacity as a result of oversupply, government regulations or other factors, risks relating to the Earthstone Merger, competition in the oil and natural gas industry for assets, materials, qualified personnel and capital, drilling and other operating risks, environmental and climate related risks, regulatory changes, restrictions on the use of water, availability to cash flow and access to capital, inflation, changes in our credit ratings or adverse changes in interest rates, changes in the financial strength of counterparties to our credit agreement and hedging contracts, the timing of development expenditures, political and economic conditions and events in foreign oil and natural gas producing countries, changes in local, regional, national, and international economic conditions, security threats and the other risks described in our filings with the SEC.
Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data, the interpretation of such data, and price and cost assumptions made by reserve engineers. In addition, the results of drilling, testing and production activities may justify revisions of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, reserve estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered.
Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this press release occur, or should any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this press release are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.
Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), our earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures as described below.
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income attributable to Class A Common Stock before net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment and abandonment expense, non-cash gains or losses on derivatives, stock-based compensation (not cash-settled), exploration and other expenses, merger and integration expense, gain/loss from the sale of long-lived assets and other non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP.
Our management believes Adjusted EBITDAX is useful as it allows them to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers, without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX 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 EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDAX should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

Net Debt-to-LQA EBITDAX
Net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define net debt as long-term debt, net, plus unamortized debt discount, premium and debt issuance costs on our senior notes minus cash and cash equivalents.
We define net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX as net debt (defined above) divided by Adjusted EBITDAX (defined and reconciled in the section above) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, on an annualized basis. We refer to this metric to show trends that investors may find useful in understanding our ability to service our debt. This metric is widely used by professional research analysts, including credit analysts, in the valuation and comparison of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry. The following table presents a reconciliation of net debt to long-term debt, net and the calculation of net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX for the period presented:

Adjusted Shares
Adjusted basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding ("Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares") are non-GAAP financial measures defined as basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding adjusted to reflect the weighted average shares of our Class C Common Stock outstanding during the period.
Our Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares provide a comparable per share measurement when presenting results such as adjusted free cash flow and adjusted net income that include the interests of both net income attributable to Class A Common Stock and the net income attributable to our noncontrolling interest. Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares are used in calculating several metrics that we use as supplemental financial measurements in the evaluation of our business.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares to basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, which are the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow
Adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define adjusted operating cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted to remove changes in working capital, merger and integration and other non-recurring charges, and estimated tax distributions to our non-controlling interest owners. Adjusted operating cash flows is reduced by total cash capital expenditures to arrive at adjusted free cash flows.
Our management believes adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are useful indicators of the Company’s ability to internally fund its future exploration and development activities, to service its existing level of indebtedness or incur additional debt, without regard to the timing of settlement of either operating assets and liabilities, its merger and integration and other non-recurring costs or estimated tax distributions to noncontrolling interest owners after funding its capital expenditures paid for the period. The Company believes that these measures, as so adjusted, present meaningful indicators of the Company’s actual sources and uses of capital associated with its operations conducted during the applicable period. Our computation of adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our operating performance or liquidity.
Adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are not financial measures that are determined in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted net income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define adjusted net income as net income attributable to Class A Common Stock plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest adjusted for non-cash gains or losses on derivatives, merger and integration expense, other nonrecurring charges, impairment and abandonment expense, gain/loss from the sale of long-lived assets and the related income tax adjustments for these items. Adjusted net income is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP.
Our management believes adjusted net income is useful as it allows them to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers by excluding certain non-cash items that can vary significantly. Adjusted net income should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Our presentation of adjusted net income should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Our computations of adjusted net income may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted net income is not a financial measure that is determined in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:
