The 2025 annual OPEC basket price stood at ***** U.S. dollars per barrel as of June. This would be lower than the 2024 average, which amounted to ***** U.S. dollars. The abbreviation OPEC stands for Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and includes Algeria, Angola, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and the United Arab Emirates. The aim of the OPEC is to coordinate the oil policies of its member states. It was founded in 1960 in Baghdad, Iraq. The OPEC Reference Basket The OPEC crude oil price is defined by the price of the so-called OPEC (Reference) basket. This basket is an average of prices of the various petroleum blends that are produced by the OPEC members. Some of these oil blends are, for example: Saharan Blend from Algeria, Basra Light from Iraq, Arab Light from Saudi Arabia, BCF 17 from Venezuela, et cetera. By increasing and decreasing its oil production, OPEC tries to keep the price between a given maxima and minima. Benchmark crude oil The OPEC basket is one of the most important benchmarks for crude oil prices worldwide. Other significant benchmarks are UK Brent, West Texas Intermediate (WTI), and Dubai Crude (Fateh). Because there are many types and grades of oil, such benchmarks are indispensable for referencing them on the global oil market. The 2025 fall in prices was the result of weakened demand outlooks exacerbated by extensive U.S. trade tariffs.

About the ProjectKAPSARC is analyzing the shifting dynamics of the global gas markets. Global gas markets have turned upside down during the past five years: North America has emerged as a large potential future LNG exporter while gas demand growth has been slowing down as natural gas gets squeezed between coal and renewables. While the coming years will witness the fastest LNG export capacity expansion ever seen, many questions are raised on the next generation of LNG supply, the impact of low oil and gas prices on supply and demand patterns and how pricing and contractual structure may be affected by both the arrival of U.S. LNG on global gas markets and the desire of Asian buyers for cheaper gas.Key PointsIn the past year, global gas prices have dropped significantly, albeit at unequal paces depending on the region. All else being equal, economists would suggest that this should have generated a positive demand response. However, “all else” was not equal. Prices of other commodities also declined while economic growth forecasts were downgraded. Prices at benchmark points such as the U.K. National Balancing Point (NBP), U.S. Henry Hub (HH) and Japan/Korea Marker (JKM) slumped due to lower oil prices, liquefied natural gas (LNG) oversupply and unseasonal weather. Yet, the prices of natural gas in local currencies have increased in a number of developing countries in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, former Soviet Union (FSU) and Asia. North America experienced demand growth while gas in Europe and Asia faced rising competition from cheaper coal, renewables and, in some instances, nuclear. Gains to European demand were mostly weather related while increases in Africa and Latin America were not significant. For LNG, Europe became the market of last resort as Asian consumption declined. Moreover, an anticipated surge in LNG supply, brought on by several new projects, may lead to a confrontation with Russian or other pipeline gas suppliers to Europe. At the same time, Asian buyers are seeking concessions on pricing and flexibility in their long-term contracts. Looking ahead, natural gas has to prove itself a credible and affordable alternative to coal, notably in Asia, if the world is to reach its climate change targets. The future of the gas industry will also depend on oil prices, evolution of Chinese energy demand and impact of COP21 on national energy policies. Current low prices mean there is likely to be a pause in final investment decisions (FIDs) on LNG projects in the coming years.

As of June 2025, the average annual price of Brent crude oil stood at 71.91 U.S. dollars per barrel. This is over eight U.S. dollars lower than the 2024 average. Brent is the world's leading price benchmark for Atlantic basin crude oils. Crude oil is one of the most closely observed commodity prices as it influences costs across all stages of the production process and consequently alters the price of consumer goods as well. What determines crude oil benchmarks? In the past decade, crude oil prices have been especially volatile. Their inherent inelasticity regarding short-term changes in demand and supply means that oil prices are erratic by nature. However, since the 2009 financial crisis, many commercial developments have greatly contributed to price volatility, such as economic growth by BRIC countries like China and India, and the advent of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling in the U.S. The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are examples of geopolitical events dictating prices. Light crude oils - Brent and WTI Brent Crude is considered a classification of sweet light crude oil and acts as a benchmark price for oil around the world. It is considered a sweet light crude oil due to its low sulfur content and low density and may be easily refined into gasoline. This oil originates in the North Sea and comprises several different oil blends, including Brent Blend and Ekofisk crude. Often, this crude oil is refined in Northwest Europe. Another sweet light oil often referenced alongside UK Brent is West Texas Intermediate (WTI). WTI oil prices amounted to 76.55 U.S. dollars per barrel in 2024.

The increasing U.S. energy demands, decreasing conventional crude oil reserves, and decontrol of crude oil prices have resulted in significant numbers of projects in U.S. tar sands. Data are reported for 62 projects involving both in-situ and mining and plant extraction technologies. The data include operator name, project location, project status (completed, current, or planned), project typed (commercial, plot, or research), reservoir and oil characteristics, and estimated product costs. The cost estimates per unit of produced oil provide encouragement for the commercialization of the U.S. tar sand resource.

Although falling oil prices and the generally dismal economic outlook have resulted in many synfuel project cancellations and deferrals, the developers of the New England Energy Park have determined, on the basis of this feasibility study, that a coal based, synthetic fuel facility is environmentally, technically, and politically viable in the New England region. The major area of uncertainty involves the financial/economic issues which relate directly to the construction and operation of a multibillion dollar energy production facility. The NEEP developers are now reasonably confident the products produced by the project can be sold to displace foreign oil products. However, despite its ability to displace foreign oil, the project is subject to operating losses in the first years of operation before unit production costs reach stability. The financial issues that face the NEEP development group center around the risks present in a multibillion dollar pioneer energy production facility and the ability or willingness of the participants to absorb these risks. NEEP has structured a risk mitigation strategy that addresses all of these factors; but real risks remain which require support from the United States Synthetic Fuels Corporation (SFC) to encourage investors to participate in the project.

In August, 1990, Robert H. Gentile, The DOE's Assistant Secretary for Fossil Energy, appointed a Task Force, comprising technical and management expertise, to put into place the Department's new Oil Research Program Implementation Plan. This new plan grew out of DOE's continuing effort to formulate a National Energy Strategy. Research directed toward near- and mid-term results has been added to the previous program emphasis on long-term, high-risk research, in order to address the needs of current conditions in the petroleum industry. The 1986 price collapse, falling domestic production, and increased well abandonments that threaten future access to reservoirs containing a vast potential of recoverable oil were the major factors that led to this new direction.

Amplify Energy has been written three times before and the previous write-ups and related comments give a good overview of the history of the Company and the quality of its asset base. DO EM GO’s write up in October 2020 was particularly well timed and the stock is up over 8X since that time, however the enterprise value is only 20% higher. Ray Palmer wrote it up in April of 2022 and the stock is up 12% since then but the enterprise value is 20% lower. The muted change in enterprise value has occurred as the Company has paid down over $100MM of debt while extending its reserve to production ratio. I believe the stock is cheaper and more derisked now than it has ever been (less than 1X debt/EBITDA) and on the cusp of major catalysts over the next 3-6 months that will uncover the tremendous value of Amplify’s assets. This write-up will focus specifically on two items which we believe haven’t been fully flushed out and create a path to significant cash flow inflection and share price gains which I expect to be above and beyond what has been discussed so far: 1) clarity on the enormous value of Beta and 2) specific actions planned by management to realize the massive undervaluation of its asset base. COMPANY OVERVIEW Amplify’s assets are mature properties that are generally past the higher decline stages typically characterized by newer production. Its production decline rate is only ~6% per year for the next decade, translating to a less capital-intensive business relative to most E&P companies, especially those in the unconventional/shale business that can have corporate decline rates of 25%-35%+. Amplify is more resilient against commodity price volatility and provides for higher FCF. This FCF is highly predictable with 85%-90% hedged for natural gas until year end 2025 and 45%-50% in 2026. The oil hedge position in 70-75% for 2024, 45%-50% in 2025 and 10-15% in 2026. A screenshot of a map Description automatically generated As the slide below shows, the Company is quite cheap based on its current proved, producing assets even with fairly draconian long term commodity price assumptions. The PV 10 analysis is very sensitive to long term strip prices, which for oil prices is currently in the mid $60s, however, I am of the opinion that long term prices will trend higher not lower in the long term. This undervaluation, however, is even more severe when one considers that the Beta PV10 is dinged for decommissioning liabilities that may be delayed by decades as discussed later. Based on a FCF valuation, the Company has guided to $20-$40 million of FCF in 2024 after $33-$40 million of growth expenditures. FCF yield to equity at midpoint is 12% with fully loaded capex and 27%, excluding Beta related growth capex. Amplify is one of the longest reserve lives and highest free cash flow yielding energy Company in my universe based on the just the existing asset base. A screenshot of a screen Description automatically generated THE BETA OPPORTUNITY The following slide gives an overview of the Beta asset: A map of oil and gas waters Description automatically generated Beta is a world-class oilfield initially discovered and developed by Shell in the 1980’s drilling low angle wells through the massive, highly permeable, stacked sandstones. The last significant drilling program in the asset consisted of 7 wells drilled by Amplify’s predecessor company. Three of these wells were drilled horizontally targeting the D-Sand and delivered 1st year average production of approximately 350 gross Bopd per well. The current development plan is designed to sidetrack out of existing, shut-in wells and horizontally target the D-Sand, utilizing the latest in rotary steerable and mapping well drilling technology to optimally place wells in areas with the highest remaining oil saturation. The Beta field has the potential to be a large growth asset for decades as there are still significant resources remaining to be recovered. The original oil in place estimates of the field range from 600 million to 1 billion barrels of oil and, with only approximately 100 million barrels recovered to date, the implied recovery factor is only between 11 to 16%. There are many analogue fields in the southern California basin with very similar reservoir properties that have recovered between 30 to 40% of the original oil in place. Implication being that there is 70 million to 260 million barrels of recoverable oil in place with the midpoint of estimates being 165 million barrels. These analogous fields generally have much tighter well spacing compared to the Beta field, which presents the opportunity for significant infill drilling.

BETA ECONOMICS AND VALUE The Company plans to increase production from Beta starting this year and 66% of its $50-$60 million 2024 capex budget is allocated to the Beta development and one time Beta facility upgrade. The remainder of the budget,...
