PR’s Fortress Balance Sheet Allows It To Be Opportunistic During Downturns
Since the Company’s inception,
Importantly, Permian Resources’ low-cost leadership and high-quality asset base have resulted in improved business fundamentals, capable of delivering strong free cash flow generation even at lower oil prices. Combined, these attributes ensure that
Permian Resources’ downturn strategy is focused on three main pillars: maintaining a rock-solid balance sheet, leveraging its cost leadership and investing opportunistically. Given its current position of strength, the Company was able to immediately begin to execute on its downturn playbook during the second quarter, deploying capital in a countercyclical nature to take advantage of lower commodity prices. In April, the Company began to execute on its share repurchase program during heightened market volatility, buying back 4.1 million shares at a weighted average price of
Notably, the Company's balance sheet remains strong pro forma for the transaction, making it well positioned to continue executing upon this playbook, with expected net debt-to-EBITDAX of less than 1x and over

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, including the impact of commodity price declines on the economic producibility of such 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 related to acquisitions we may make from time to time, including the risk that we may fail to integrate such acquisitions on the terms and timing contemplated, or at all, and/or to realize our strategy and plans to achieve the expected benefits of such acquisitions;
- 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, including seasonal weather conditions;
-
regulatory changes, including those that may result from the
U.S. Supreme Court’s decision overturning theChevron deference doctrine and that may impact environmental, energy, and natural resources regulation; - the possibility that the industry in which we operate may be subject to new or volatile local, state, and federal laws, regulations or policies that may affect our business (including additional taxes and changes in regulations and policies related to environmental, health, and safety, climate change, trade policy and tariffs) as a result of existing or developing political, environmental and social movements;

- 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, including embargoes, continued hostilities in the
Middle East and other sustained military campaigns, including the conflict inIsrael and its surrounding areas, the war inUkraine and associated economic sanctions onRussia , conditions inSouth America ,Central America ,China andRussia , and acts of terrorism or sabotage and the effects therefrom; - changes in local, regional, national, and international economic conditions;
- security threats, including evolving cybersecurity risks such as those involving unauthorized access, denial-of-service attacks, third-party service provider failures, malicious software, data privacy breaches by employees, insiders or other with authorized access, cyber or phishing-attacks, ransomware, social engineering, physical breaches or other actions; and
-
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.
1) Adjusted Operating Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Diluted WeightedAverage Shares Outstanding and Net Debt-to-LQA EBITDAX (also referred to as “leverage” in this press release) are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included within the Appendix of this press release for related disclosures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not provide guidance on the items used to reconcile between forecasted Net Debt-to-EBITDAX to forecasted long-term debt, net or forecasted net income due to the uncertainty regarding timing and estimates of certain items. Therefore, we cannot reconcile forecasted Net Debt-to-EBITDAX to long-term debt, net, or net income without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with
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, 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, also referred to as leverage, is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define net debt as total 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

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
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.
