EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1

General information

GeoPark Limited (the “Company”) is a company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda. The Registered Office address is Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton HM11, Bermuda.

The principal activity of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group” or “GeoPark”) is the exploration, development and production for oil and gas reserves in Latin America.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 5, 2024.

Basis of Preparation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of GeoPark Limited are presented in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies applied in the most recent annual consolidated financial statements. The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. The amendments and interpretations detailed in the annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, that apply for the first time in 2024, do not have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Whenever necessary, certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to changes in presentation in the current period.

Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.

The activities of the Group are not subject to significant seasonal changes.

Estimates

The preparation of interim financial information requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Financial risk management

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: currency risk, price risk, credit risk concentration, funding and liquidity risk, interest risk and capital risk. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Note 1 (Continued)

Financial risk management (Continued)

The Group is continually reviewing its exposure to the current market conditions and adjusting its capital expenditures program which remains flexible and quickly adaptable to different oil price scenarios.

Note 2

Segment information

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Executive Committee. This committee is integrated by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Technical Officer, Chief Exploration Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Strategy, Sustainability and Legal Officer and Chief People Officer. This committee reviews the Group’s internal reporting to assess performance and allocate resources. Management has determined the operating segments based on these reports. The committee considers the business from a geographic perspective.

The Executive Committee assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit (loss) for the period (determined as if IFRS 16 Leases has not been adopted), before net finance cost, income tax, depreciation, amortization, certain non-cash items such as impairments and write-offs of unsuccessful exploration efforts, accrual of share-based payment, unrealized result on commodity risk management contracts, geological and geophysical expenses allocated to capitalized projects, and other non-recurring events. Other information provided to the Executive Committee is measured in a manner consistent with that in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 4

Commodity risk management contracts

The Group has entered into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to oil price risk. These derivatives are zero-premium collars and were placed with major financial institutions and commodity traders. The Group entered into the derivatives under ISDA Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes, which provide credit lines for collateral posting thus alleviating possible liquidity needs under the instruments and protect the Group from potential non-performance risk by its counterparties.

The Group’s derivatives are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of changes in the fair values of these derivative contracts are recognized in Other Reserve within Equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion, if any, is recognized immediately as gains or losses in the results of the periods in which they occur. The amount accumulated in Other Reserves is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss as part of the Revenue line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

The following table summarizes the Group’s production hedged during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, and for the following periods as a consequence of the derivative contracts in force as of September 30, 2024:

(a)

Royalties and economic rights in Colombia are payable to the Colombian National Hydrocarbons Agency (“ANH”) and are determined on a field-by-field basis depending on different variables such as crude quality and price levels, among others. During 2023 and 2024, the mix of royalties and economic rights paid “in-kind” increased as compared to royalties and economic rights paid ‘in-cash”. These changes caused variations in the ‘royalties in cash’ and ‘economic rights in cash’ line items from period to period, which are compensated by variations in the quantities of oil sales impacting the ‘Revenue’ line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

(b)

Consumables include energy costs of US$ 5,945,000 and US$ 7,473,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and US$ 18,607,000 and US$ 18,204,000 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These costs were driven by a drought that affected the energy matrix in Colombia as a result of decreased availability of hydroelectric power.

The fluctuation in transportation costs is mainly attributed to deliveries at different sales points in the CPO-5 Block in Colombia. Sales at the wellhead incur no selling costs but yield lower revenue, while transportation expenses for sales to alternative delivery points are recognized as selling expenses.

Income tax

The Group calculates income tax expense using the tax rate that would be applicable to the expected total annual earnings. The main components of income tax expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income are:


	Three-month	Three-month	Nine-month	Nine-month
	period ended	period ended	period ended	period ended
	September 30,	September 30,	September 30,	September 30,
Amounts in US$ '000	2024	2023	2024	2023
Current income tax expense	(23,063)	(30,119)	(103,625)	(104,598)
Deferred income tax benefit (expense)	1,513	(11,045)	(24,560)	9,669
	(21,550)	(41,164)	(128,185)	(94,929)

The effective tax rate was 46% and 62% for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 61% and 53% for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, the statutory income tax rate in Colombia was 35%, though a tax surcharge is also applicable, impacting companies engaged in the extraction of crude oil like GeoPark. The tax surcharge varies from zero to 15%, depending on different Brent oil prices. The Group currently estimates a tax surcharge of 10% for 2024, and therefore, the applicable statutory income tax rate in Colombia for 2024 would be 45%.

The Group’s consolidated effective tax rate of 46% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, which was in line with the statutory income tax rate in Colombia as noted above, includes the net effect of the positive impact of the re-estimation of the tax surcharge for 2024 (from 15% to 10%, as a result of a lower price environment) and the negative impact of tax losses in non-taxable jurisdictions or entities.
