“In the second quarter we successfully executed on our strategy to deliver meaningful returns,” said Fernando Araujo, Berry’s CEO. “Our operational and financial performance was strong. We delivered a nearly 7% increase, or more than 1,600 boe per day, in production volumes quarter over quarter with less capital than planned. Additionally, we reduced lease operating expenses, net of hedges, by 23% compared to the first quarter, driven by lower fuel prices and a reduction in lease maintenance costs. As a result, we will pay total dividends this quarter of $0.14 per share, fixed plus variable. We also opportunistically repurchased 1.4 million shares in the open market at an average price of $7.04 per share.
“We are excited about our pending acquisition of Macpherson Energy Corporation, achieving our important strategic objective to acquire accretive, producing bolt-on assets. This transaction provides additional production and improved capital efficiency and will be funded partially through a reallocation of $35 million of capital in 2023. The Macpherson assets are high-quality, low decline oil producing properties, and are a natural fit with our existing rural Kern County portfolio. In addition to the attractive base production, we see upside for near-term production enhancement and development opportunities,” Araujo said.
Second Quarter 2023 Results
Net income was $26 million in the second quarter 2023 compared to a net loss of $6 million in the first quarter 2023 while Adjusted EBITDA was $69 million and $59 million, respectively. The 17% increase in Adjusted EBITDA was largely driven by increased production, coupled with lower fuel prices and lease maintenance costs, slightly offset by lower oil prices.
The Company's average daily production increased in the second quarter 2023 to 25,900 boe/d compared to 24,300 boe/d in the first quarter 2023. Company-wide oil production in the second quarter 2023 was 24,000 bbl/d, accounting for 93% of total Company production, with California production contributing 20,800 boe/d or 80% of total production. Production was nearly 7% higher quarter-over-quarter due to improved base production from optimized steam injection in California, as well as making up for first quarter weather-related production downtime.
Company-wide realized oil price, including hedging effects, was $69.87 per bbl for the second quarter 2023 compared to $71.04 per bbl in the first quarter 2023. Excluding hedging effects, California's average realized oil prices were $72.10 per bbl in the second quarter 2023, 93% of Brent, and $76.24 per bbl in the first quarter 2023, 93% of Brent.
Lease operating expenses, which includes fuel gas costs for California steam operations, decreased in the second quarter 2023 from the first quarter 2023 mostly as a result of lower natural gas (fuel) costs for our California steam generation facilities due to a significant price decrease. Lease operating expense excluding fuel decreased $2 million due to lower lease maintenance costs, which were uncharacteristically high in the first quarter 2023 as a consequence of adverse weather conditions.
Taxes, other than income taxes, increased 22%, in the second quarter 2023 compared to the first quarter 2023 due to higher mark-to-market prices for greenhouse gas (“GHG”) allowances in the second quarter.
General and administrative expenses decreased 29% in the second quarter 2023 compared to the first quarter 2023, in large part due to non-recurring executive transition and workforce reduction costs that occurred in the first quarter 2023. Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses(1), which excludes non-cash stock compensation costs and nonrecurring costs, decreased 3% in the second quarter 2023 compared to the first quarter 2023, as a result of the cost savings initiatives that began in early 2023.
The income for the well servicing and abandonment business, C&J Well Services, increased 129% to $5 million in the second quarter 2023 compared to the first quarter 2023, due to increased activity in the second quarter compared to the first quarter which had been impacted by weather-related customer demand.
For the second quarter 2023, capital expenditures were approximately $21 million, excluding acquisitions, asset retirement obligation spending and well servicing and abandonment capital of $1 million. This represented a 5% increase compared to the first quarter 2023 as a result of increased facilities and workover spending. Additionally, the Company spent approximately $6 million for plugging and abandonment activities in the second quarter 2023.
At June 30, 2023, the Company had liquidity of $186 million, consisting of $9 million cash and $177 million available for borrowings under its revolving credit facilities.
“We increased Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter by 17% over the first quarter and generated solid Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $34 million. Executing on our commitment to return meaningful cash to shareholders, we purchased $10 million of Berry shares in the quarter for an average price of $7.04, and will continue to evaluate opportunities to generate and deliver returns consistent with our shareholder return model,” stated Mike Helm, Berry’s CFO. “Berry is hitting its targets and is well positioned for continued success in maximizing shareholder returns.”
2023 Outlook
We currently anticipate that our full-year results will be in line with previous guidance, before consideration of the Macpherson transaction, except with respect to capital expenditures. We expect 2023 capital expenditures for both Berry and C&J Well Services to be approximately $35 million lower than the $103 million to $113 million initial guidance as a result of the reallocation of capital to fund a portion of the Macpherson purchase price. We will fully update guidance in connection with the transaction close, expected late in the third quarter 2023.
Quarterly Dividends
The Company’s Board of Directors declared dividends totaling $0.14 per share on the Company’s outstanding common stock. The variable portion of $0.02 per share was based on the cumulative Adjusted Free Cash Flow results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 in accordance with the Company's Shareholder Return Model. The fixed portion of $0.12 per share was also declared, and both dividends are payable on August 25, 2023 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2023.

__________
(1) The natural gas we purchase to generate steam and electricity is primarily based on Rockies price indexes, including transportation charges, as we currently purchase a substantial majority of gas needs from the Rockies, with the balance purchased in California at various California indices. SoCal Gas city-gate Index is the relevant index used only for the portion of gas purchases in California. Now that the Company is purchasing a majority of its fuel gas in the Rockies, most of the purchases made in California utilize the SoCal Gas city-gate index, whereas prior to this shift the predominant index for California purchases was Kern, Delivered.
(2) Northwest, Rocky Mountains and Henry Hub are the relevant indices used for gas purchases and sales, respectively, in the Rockies.
Natural gas prices and differentials are strongly affected by local market fundamentals, availability of transportation capacity from producing areas and seasonal impacts. The Company's key exposure to gas prices is in costs. The Company purchases substantially more natural gas for California steamfloods and cogeneration facilities than what is produced and sold in the Rockies. In May 2022, the Company began purchasing most of its gas in the Rockies and transporting it to California operations using the Kern River pipeline capacity. The Company buys approximately 48,000 mmbtu/d in the Rockies, and the remainder comes from California markets. The volume purchased in California fluctuates and averaged 6,000 mmbtu/d in Q2 2023, 3,000 mmbtu/d in Q1 2023 and 13,000 mmbtu/d in Q2 2022. The natural gas purchased in the Rockies is shipped to operations in California to help limit exposure to California fuel gas purchase price fluctuations. The Company strives to further minimize the variability of fuel gas costs for steam operations by hedging a significant portion of gas purchases. Additionally, the negative impact of higher gas prices on California operating expenses is partially offset by higher gas sales for the gas produced and sold in the Rockies.

Overall, management assesses the efficiency of the Company's E&P field operations by considering core E&P operating expenses together with cogeneration, marketing and transportation activities. In particular, a core component of E&P operations in California is steam, which is used to lift heavy oil to the surface. The Company operates several cogeneration facilities to produce some of the steam needed in operations. In comparing the cost effectiveness of cogeneration plants against other sources of steam in operations, management considers the cost of operating the cogeneration plants, including the cost of the natural gas purchased to operate the facilities, against the value of the steam and electricity used in E&P field operations and the revenues received from sales of excess electricity to the grid. The Company strives to minimize the variability of its fuel gas costs for California steam operations with natural gas purchase hedges. Consequently, the efficiency of E&P field operations are impacted by the cash settlements received or paid from these derivatives. The Company also has contracts for the transportation of fuel gas from the Rockies, which has historically been cheaper than the California markets. With respect to transportation and marketing, management also considers opportunistic sales of incremental capacity in assessing the overall efficiencies of E&P operations.
Lease operating expenses include fuel, labor, field office, vehicle, supervision, maintenance, tools and supplies, and workover expenses. Electricity generation expenses include the portion of fuel, labor, maintenance, and tools and supplies from two of the Company's cogeneration facilities allocated to electricity generation expense; the remaining cogeneration expenses are included in lease operating expense. Transportation expenses relate to costs to transport the oil and gas that is produced within the Company's properties or moved to the market. Marketing expenses mainly relate to natural gas purchased from third parties that moves through gathering and processing systems and then is sold to third parties. Electricity revenue is from the sale of excess electricity from two of the Company's cogeneration facilities to a California utility company under long-term contracts at market prices. These cogeneration facilities are sized to satisfy the steam needs in their respective fields, but the corresponding electricity produced is more than the electricity that is currently required for the operations in those fields. Transportation sales relate to water and other liquids that transport on the Company's systems on behalf of third parties and marketing revenues represent sales of natural gas purchased from and sold to third parties.

__________
(1) Production represents volumes sold during the period. We also consume a portion of the natural gas we produce on lease to extract oil and gas.
(2) Natural gas volumes have been converted to boe based on energy content of six mcf of gas to one bbl of oil. Barrels of oil equivalence does not necessarily result in price equivalence. The price of natural gas on a barrel of oil equivalent basis is currently substantially lower than the corresponding price for oil and has been similarly lower for a number of years. For example, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, the average prices of Brent oil and Henry Hub natural gas were $77.73 per bbl and $2.16 per mmbtu respectively.
(3) Includes production for Antelope Creek area from February 2022, when it was acquired, through June 30, 2023.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is not a measure of net income (loss), Adjusted Free Cash Flow is not a measure of cash flow, and Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of either net income (loss) or cash flow, in all cases, as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense; income taxes; depreciation, depletion, and amortization; derivative gains or losses net of cash received or paid for scheduled derivative settlements; impairments; stock compensation expense; and unusual and infrequent items. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information in assessing our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and is widely used by the industry and the investment community. The measure also allows our management to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results between periods without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We also use Adjusted EBITDA in planning our capital allocation to sustain production levels and to determine our strategic hedging needs aside from the hedging requirements of the 2021 RBL Facility.
We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for derivative gains or losses net of cash received or paid for scheduled derivative settlements, unusual and infrequent items, and the income tax expense or benefit of these adjustments using our statutory tax rate. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) excludes the impact of unusual and infrequent items affecting earnings that vary widely and unpredictably, including non-cash items such as derivative gains and losses. This measure is used by management when comparing results period over period. We believe Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is useful to investors because it reflects how management evaluates the Company’s ongoing financial and operating performance from period-to-period after removing certain transactions and activities that affect comparability of the metrics and are not reflective of the Company’s core operations. We believe this also makes it easier for investors to compare our period-to-period results with our peers.
We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as cash flow from operations less regular fixed dividends and maintenance capital. Maintenance capital represents the capital expenditures needed to maintain substantially the same volume of annual oil and gas production and is defined as capital expenditures, excluding, when applicable, E&P capital expenditures that are related to strategic business expansion, such as acquisitions of oil and gas properties and any exploration and development activities to increase production beyond the prior year’s annual production volumes and capital expenditures in our well servicing and abandonment and corporate segments that are related to ancillary sustainability initiatives or other expenditures that are discretionary and unrelated to maintenance of our core business. Management believes Adjusted Free Cash Flow may be useful in an investor analysis of our ability to generate cash from operating activities from our existing oil and gas asset base after maintaining the existing production volumes of that asset base to return capital to stockholders, fund further business expansion through acquisitions or investments in our existing asset base to increase production volumes and pay other non-discretionary expenses. Management also uses Adjusted Free Cash Flow as the primary metric to determine the quarterly variable dividend. In early 2023, we updated our shareholder return model, including to double our quarterly fixed dividend to $0.12 per share. Any dividends actually paid will be determined by our Board of Directors in light of existing conditions, including our earnings, financial condition, restrictions in financing agreements, business conditions and other factors. We also modified the allocations of Adjusted Free Cash Flow. Our goal is to continue maximizing shareholder value through overall returns. The allocation beginning in 2023 will be (a) 80% primarily in the form of opportunistic debt or share repurchases, strategic growth, and acquisitions of producing bolt-on assets; and (b) 20% in the form of variable dividends.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance, and it should not be inferred that the entire amount of Adjusted Free Cash Flow is available for variable dividends, debt or share repurchases, strategic acquisitions or other discretionary expenditures, since we have mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from this measure.
We define Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as general and administrative expenses adjusted for non-cash stock compensation expense and unusual and infrequent costs. Management believes Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses is useful because it allows us to more effectively compare our performance from period to period. We believe Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses is useful to investors because it reflects how management evaluates the Company’s ongoing general and administrative expenses from period-to-period after removing non-cash stock compensation, as well as unusual or infrequent costs that affect comparability of the metrics and are not reflective of the Company’s administrative costs. We believe this also makes it easier for investors to compare our period-to-period results with our peers.
While Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses are non-GAAP measures, the amounts included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses were computed in accordance with GAAP. These measures are provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, income and liquidity measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than income and liquidity measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance, such as our cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic cost of depreciable and depletable assets. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses should be read in conjunction with the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
