Third Quarter 2024 Highlights:

  • Magnolia reported third quarter 2024 net income attributable to Class A Common Stock of $99.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted share. Third quarter 2024 total net income was $105.9 million and total adjusted net income(1) was $100.3 million. Diluted weighted average total shares outstanding for third quarter 2024 fell by 5% to 198.4 million(2) compared to third quarter 2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDAX(1) was $243.6 million during the third quarter of 2024 and total drilling and completions (“D&C”) capital was $103.1 million, or approximately 42% of adjusted EBITDAX. Capital spending for the quarter was well below our earlier guidance, and mainly the result of lower well costs, ongoing efficiencies, and a small delay in timing of activity moving into the fourth quarter.
  • Lease operating expenses experienced a further sequential decline to $5.33 per barrel oil equivalent in the third quarter of 2024. This represents an 11% decline from first quarter 2024 levels and demonstrates further achievements realized from the Company’s field-level optimization and cost reduction program announced earlier this year.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $217.9 million during the third quarter of 2024 and the Company generated free cash flow(1) of $126.1 million. Magnolia generated operating income as a percentage of revenue (pre-tax margins) of 39% during the third quarter.
  • Total production volumes in the third quarter of 2024 grew by 10% on a year-over-year basis to 90.7 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (“Mboe/d”) including 38.9 thousand barrels of oil per day (“Mbbls/d”) and were supported by continued strong well performance. Overall, our third quarter production was impacted by multiple unplanned third-party midstream facility outages occurring in the period. Production from Giddings was 68.7 Mboe/d in the most recent quarter, providing overall growth of 12% compared to last year’s third quarter, including oil production growth of 24%.
  • The Company repurchased a total of 2.5 million shares of its Class A and Class B Common Stock during the third quarter for $61.7 million. Magnolia has 3.9 million Class A common shares remaining under its current repurchase authorization, which are specifically allocated toward open market share repurchases.
  • As previously announced, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.13 per share of Class A common stock, and a cash distribution of $0.13 per Class B unit, payable on December 2, 2024 to shareholders of record as of November 8, 2024.
  • Magnolia returned approximately $87.8 million(3) to shareholders, or 70% of our free cash flow(1), during the third quarter through a combination of share repurchases and dividends while ending the period with $276.1 million of cash on the balance sheet and an undrawn $450.0 million revolving credit facility.

Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDAX and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. For reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this press release.

(2)

Weighted average total shares outstanding include diluted weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period and shares of Class B Common Stock, which are anti-dilutive in the calculation of weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

(3)

Includes $0.6 million of share repurchases incurred during the third quarter, but settled during the fourth quarter of 2024.

“Magnolia delivered another steady quarter of strong financial results and operational field performance,” said President and CEO Chris Stavros. “We continue to consistently execute our business model which includes disciplined capital spending, delivering moderate production growth, with high pre-tax operating margins, low leverage and significant free cash flow generation. We believe our business model and strategy provides us with a competitive advantage and the ability to serially compound value for our shareholders over time.

“During the third quarter, we continued to grow our production in a highly capitally efficient manner, yielding total volumes of 90.7 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day and 38.9 thousand barrels per day of oil, despite some unplanned third-party midstream outages. Our team’s continued focus on driving down field-level operating costs has also helped our pre-tax margins and improved our free cash flow. I am very proud of the hard work and concerted effort shown by our operating personnel, helping to provide Magnolia with one of the lowest cost structures in the industry.

“Additionally, we continue to see opportunities to bolt-on small royalty, leasehold and working interest deals in both the Giddings and Karnes areas, completing approximately $15 million during the quarter. These transactions increase our position in future high return development areas. As I have often stated, our goal at Magnolia is to improve the overall business, sustain our high-return development and increase our dividend per share payout capacity. This strategy is expected to maximize shareholder value over the long-term. Looking forward to 2025, our steadfast plan is to adhere to this same business model, providing similar discipline to allocating capital which is expected to deliver mid-single digit annual production growth in the current product price environment.”

Operational Update

Third quarter 2024 total company production volumes averaged 90.7 Mboe/d including oil production of 38.9 Mbbls/d. Production from Giddings increased 12% compared to last year’s third quarter to 68.7 Mboe/d with oil production growing 24% over the same period. Total production during the quarter was reduced by approximately 1,000 Boe/d (primarily natural gas and NGLs) resulting from multiple unplanned third-party midstream facility outages which occurred mainly during the latter part of the quarter and were resolved by the end of the quarter. Total Company production volumes benefited from continued strong well performance throughout our assets. Magnolia’s third quarter 2024 capital spending on drilling, completions and associated facilities was $103.1 million. Capital outlays were lower than our earlier guidance due lower well costs, ongoing operational efficiencies and a small amount of activity slipping into the fourth quarter.

Magnolia continues to operate two drilling rigs and one completion crew. Improvements in well costs and ongoing overall spending efficiencies have provided us with spare capacity within our capital budget, which will allow us to drill an additional four well pad in Giddings during the fourth quarter that was not part of our originally planned 2024 capital and activity. We expect this additional pad to be a DUC at year-end with anticipated completion sometime in the first half of 2025. This pad is expected to provide us with some additional operational flexibility into next year.

Additional Guidance

Factoring in the small amount of delayed activity as well as the additional four well pad, we expect fourth quarter D&C capital to be approximately $125 million. This would bring our total capital spending for the year to approximately $470 million and in the middle of the range of our total 2024 capital budget of $450 to $480 million. The modest increase in activity should further benefit Magnolia’s overall capital efficiency and flexibility during 2025. Fourth quarter total production volumes are expected to be approximately 93 Mboe/d providing high single digit total year-over-year production growth during 2024, with this year’s growth in oil production now expected to surpass that rate.

Oil price differentials are anticipated to be approximately a $3.00 per barrel discount to Magellan East Houston and Magnolia remains completely unhedged for all its oil and natural gas production. The fully diluted share count for the fourth quarter of 2024 is expected to be approximately 197 million shares, which is approximately 5% lower than fourth quarter 2023 levels.

Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q

Magnolia's financial statements and related footnotes will be available in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2024, which is expected to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 31, 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDAX

In this press release, we refer to adjusted EBITDAX, 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 before interest (income) expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, exploration expenses, and accretion of asset retirement obligations, adjusted to exclude the effect of certain items included in net income. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income in accordance with GAAP.

Our management believes that adjusted EBITDAX is useful because 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 also believe that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties may use adjusted EBITDAX in the evaluation of our Company. 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 non-recurring 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 net income to adjusted EBITDAX, our most directly comparable financial measure, calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income

Our presentation of adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure because it excludes the effect of certain items included in net income. Management uses adjusted net income to evaluate our operating and financial performance because it eliminates the impact of certain items that management does not consider to be representative of the Company’s on-going business operations. As a performance measure, adjusted net income may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company’s industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, and capital structure, among other factors. Management believes adjusting these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted net income may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reconciliation of revenue to adjusted cash operating margin and operating income margin

Our presentation of adjusted cash operating margin and total adjusted cash operating costs are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management. Total adjusted cash operating costs exclude the impact of non-cash activity. We define adjusted cash operating margin per boe as total revenues per boe less cash operating costs per boe. Management believes that total adjusted cash operating costs per boe and adjusted cash operating margin per boe provide relevant and useful information, which is used by our management in assessing the Company’s profitability and comparability of results to our peers.

As a performance measure, total adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company’s industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, and capital structure, among other factors. Management believes excluding these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted cash operating margin may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operations before net change in operating assets and liabilities less additions to oil and natural gas properties and changes in working capital associated with additions to oil and natural gas properties. Management believes free cash flow is useful for investors and widely accepted by those following the oil and gas industry as financial indicators of a company’s ability to generate cash to internally fund drilling and completion activities, fund acquisitions, and service debt. It is also used by research analysts to value and compare oil and gas exploration and production companies and are frequently included in published research when providing investment recommendations. Free cash flow is used by management as an additional measure of liquidity. Free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities.
