This press release includes non-GAAP financial
measures, including Adjusted Net (Loss) Income, Adjusted EBITDA,
Free Cash Flow and Net Debt, which are described and reconciled to
the most comparable GAAP financial measures below in the
accompanying tables under “Non-GAAP Information.”
Key highlights for the third quarter of 2024 and

thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (“MBoe/d”) (52% liquids)
within the Company’s third quarter guidance despite impacts from
hurricanes and downtime;

operating expenses (“LOE”) of $72.4 million, 6% lower than the
bottom end of the Company’s third quarter guidance range;

of $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, marking the 27th
consecutive quarter of positive Free Cash Flow;
- Reported net
loss of $36.9 million, or $(0.25) per diluted share;
- Adjusted Net
Loss totaled $25.7 million, or $(0.17) per share, which primarily

contracts, non-ARO plugging and abandonment (“P&A”) costs and
related tax effect;

EBITDA of $26.7 million;
- Increased cash
and cash equivalents to $126.5 million and lowered Net Debt to

consecutive quarterly dividend of $0.01 per common share in August
2024;

full year capital expenditure budget from $35 to $45 million to $25

- Named as one of
five finalists for the Best Proxy Statement in the small cap
category at the 18th Annual Corporate Governance Awards hosted by
Governance Intelligence (formerly Corporate Secretary) which
recognizes outstanding achievements in governance, risk and
compliance.
Tracy W. Krohn, W&T’s Board Chair and Chief
Executive Officer, commented, “We remain committed to executing our
strategic vision focused on free cash flow generation, maintaining
solid production and maximizing margins. This commitment enabled
W&T to deliver another quarter of solid results despite
production being temporarily impacted by approximately 3.5 MBoe/d
of shut-ins associated with hurricanes and other unplanned
downtime, but production was still within our guidance range for
the quarter. In October, we have seen production levels recover to
around 34.0 Mboe/d. We continue to make progress integrating our
2024 acquired assets into W&T with four of the six fields
online, but we still have more work to do to return the remaining
two fields to production, which provides additional upside.
Additionally, we continue to reduce costs and capture synergies
associated with our asset acquisitions with LOE 6% below the bottom
end of our guidance range. We remain focused on generating Adjusted
EBITDA and Free Cash Flow and the third quarter 2024 marked the
27th consecutive quarter of positive Free Cash Flow. Our proven and
successful strategy and operational excellence should help us
continue to produce strong results both operationally and
financially for the remainder of 2024 and into 2025.”
“We continue to demonstrate our commitment to a
high quality, comprehensive ESG effort by issuing our 2023 ESG
report. This is our fourth sustainability report, and we continue
to make strides regarding shareholder rights, board structure and
oversight, human rights, labor, health and safety and environmental
initiatives. We are constantly seeking to improve our capabilities
to better allow us to report on an increasing number of SASB
standards and GRI standards for the oil and gas sector. W&T’s
culture of success and sustainability is built on environmental
stewardship, sound corporate governance, and contributing
positively to our employees and the communities where we work and
operate. In 2023, we added a new Board member, Dr. Nancy Chang, who
is the chair of our Environmental, Safety and Governance committee
that oversees our ESG efforts. Dr. Chang has helped to guide
W&T in its ongoing commitment to high standards of ESG and
corporate governance. We invite you to review this report to learn
more about our sustainability program and our plans for improvement
in the future. In addition, W&T was named as one of five
finalists for the Best Proxy Statement in the small cap category at
the 18th Annual Corporate Governance Awards. Our proxy statement
clearly demonstrated our ongoing commitment to excellence and high
standards of transparency and corporate governance.”
Production, Prices and
Revenue: Production for the third quarter of 2024 was
31.0 MBoe/d, within the Company’s third quarter guidance and down
compared with 34.9 MBoe/d for the second quarter of 2024 and 35.9
MBoe/d for the corresponding period in 2023. Production in the
third quarter of 2024 was temporarily reduced by approximately 3.5
MBoe/d mainly due to hurricanes and third party downtime. The
year-over-year decrease was partially offset by increased
production from wells acquired in January 2024. Third quarter 2024
production was comprised of 13.2 thousand barrels per day
(“MBbl/d”) of oil (43%), 2.8 MBbl/d of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”)
(9%), and 90.1 million cubic feet per day (“MMcf/d”) of natural gas
(48%). Two of the six fields acquired in early 2024 remain shut-in.
W&T continues to work on returning these fields to production,
either through existing third-party sales routes or alternative
Company-owned sales routes.
W&T’s average realized price per Boe before
realized derivative settlements was $41.92 per Boe in the third
quarter of 2024, a decrease of 6% from $44.40 per Boe in the second
quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 1% from $42.48 per Boe in the
third quarter of 2023. Third quarter 2024 oil, NGL and natural gas
prices before realized derivative settlements were $75.09 per
barrel of oil, $21.51 per barrel of NGL and $2.79 per Mcf of
natural gas.
Revenues for the third quarter of 2024 were
$121.4 million, which was approximately 15% lower than the second
quarter of 2024 revenue of $142.8 million driven by lower realized
prices for liquids and lower production volumes. Third quarter 2024
revenue was approximately 15% lower than $142.4 million of revenue
in the third quarter of 2023 due to lower average realized prices
and lower production volumes.
Lease Operating Expense: LOE,
which includes base lease operating expenses, insurance premiums,
workovers and facilities maintenance expenses, was $72.4 million in
the third quarter of 2024, which was below the bottom end of the
previously provided guidance range of $77.0 to $85.0 million. LOE
came in lower than expected as the Company continued to realize
synergies from asset acquisitions in late 2023 and early 2024. LOE
for the third quarter of 2024 was approximately 2% lower compared
to $74.0 million in the second quarter of 2024 and up approximately
17% from $61.8 million for the corresponding period in 2023
primarily due to higher base lease operating expenses related to
the asset acquisitions in late 2023 and early 2024. On a component
basis for the third quarter of 2024, base LOE and insurance
premiums were $58.5 million, workovers were $0.9 million, and
facilities maintenance and other expenses were $13.0 million. On a
unit of production basis, LOE was $25.37 per Boe in the third
quarter of 2024. This compares to $23.29 per Boe for the second
quarter of 2024 and $18.72 per Boe for the third quarter of 2023,
reflecting a decrease in production in the periods.
Gathering, Transportation Costs and
Production Taxes: Gathering, transportation costs and
production taxes totaled $6.1 million ($2.15 per Boe) in the third
quarter of 2024, compared to $8.6 million ($2.70 per Boe) in the
second quarter of 2024 and $6.7 million ($2.03 per Boe) in the
third quarter of 2023. Gathering, transportation costs and
production taxes decreased in the third quarter of 2024 from the
prior quarter due to higher processing fees for W&T’s
Mobile Bay production that had to be re-routed to a different
processing plant in the second quarter of 2024.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
(“DD&A”): DD&A was $11.99 per Boe in the third
quarter of 2024. This compares to $11.55 per Boe and $9.15 per Boe
for the second quarter of 2024 and the third quarter of 2023,
respectively.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Accretion: Asset retirement obligations accretion was
$2.75 per Boe in the third quarter of 2024. This compares to $2.64
per Boe and $1.94 per Boe for the second quarter of 2024 and the
third quarter of 2023, respectively.
General & Administrative Expenses
(“G&A”): G&A was $19.7 million for the third
quarter of 2024, which decreased from $21.4 million in the second
quarter of 2024 primarily due to the decrease in non-recurring
professional and legal fees incurred in the second quarter of 2024
partially offset by an increase in non-cash compensation expense in
the third quarter of 2024 associated with the annual equity grant.
G&A totaled $20.0 million in the third quarter of 2023. On a
unit of production basis, G&A was $6.91 per Boe in the third
quarter of 2024 compared to $6.72 per Boe in the second quarter of
2024 and $6.05 per Boe in the corresponding period of 2023. These
differences are primarily related to production variances.
Derivative (Gain) Loss, net: In
the third quarter of 2024, W&T recorded a net gain of $3.2
million related to commodity derivative contracts comprised of a
$1.8 million unrealized gain related to the increase in fair value
of open contracts and $1.4 million of realized gains. W&T
recognized a net loss of $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2024
and a net gain of $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2023 related
to commodity derivative activities.
A summary of the Company’s outstanding
derivative positions is provided in the investor presentation
posted on W&T’s website.
Interest Expense: Net interest
expense in the third quarter of 2024 was $10.0 million
compared to $10.2 million in the second quarter of 2024 and $9.9
million in the third quarter of 2023.
Other
Expense: During 2021 and 2022, as a
result of the declaration of bankruptcy by a third party that is
the indirect successor in title to certain offshore interests that
were previously divested by the Company, W&T recorded a
contingent loss accrual related to anticipated non-ARO P&A
costs. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company reassessed its
existing obligations and recorded an additional $16.6 million.
Income Tax (Benefit) Expense:
W&T recognized an income tax benefit of $4.5 million in the
third quarter of 2024. This compares to the recognition of an
income tax benefit of $4.6 million and an income tax expense of
$4.8 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and
September 30, 2023, respectively.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity: As
of September 30, 2024, W&T had available liquidity of
$176.5 million comprised of $126.5 million in unrestricted cash and
cash equivalents and $50.0 million of borrowing availability under
W&T’s first priority secured revolving facility provided by
Calculus Lending LLC. As of September 30, 2024, the
Company had total debt of $392.6 million and Net Debt of $266.0
million. Of W&T’s total debt of $392.6 million, only $278.4
million is recourse to W&T. The remaining $114.2 million is
held at W&T’s wholly owned subsidiary, Aquasition Energy LLC,
and is non-recourse to W&T. As of September 30, 2024,
Net Debt to TTM Adjusted EBITDA was 1.6x.
Capital Expenditures and Asset
Retirement Settlements: Capital expenditures on an accrual
basis (excluding acquisitions) in the third quarter of 2024 were
$4.5 million, and asset retirement settlement costs totaled $8.3
million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, capital
expenditures on an accrual basis (excluding acquisitions) totaled
$16.4 million and asset retirements costs were $20.3 million.
Investments related to acquisitions in the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 totaled $80.6 million, which included
$77.3 million for the Cox acquisition and $3.3 million of final
purchase price adjustments related to W&T’s acquisition of
properties in September 2023.
OPERATIONS UPDATE
Well Recompletions and
Workovers
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company
performed one workover and three recompletions that positively
impacted production for the quarter. W&T plans to continue
performing these low cost and low risk short payout operations that
impact both production and revenue.
Cash Dividend Policy
The Company paid its third quarter 2024 dividend
of $0.01 per share on August 29, 2024 to stockholders of record on
August 21, 2024.
The Board of Directors declared a fourth quarter

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024
Production and Expense Guidance
The guidance for the fourth quarter and full
year 2024 in the table below represents the Company’s current
expectations. Please refer to the section entitled “Forward-Looking
and Cautionary Statements” below for risk factors that could impact
guidance.
W&T plans to spend more on LOE in the fourth
quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2024 to undertake
some of the projects deferred earlier in the year. Full year
estimated LOE was reduced in August 2024 by approximately 5% at the
midpoint, to a range of $280 million to $315 million, which
demonstrates W&T’s commitment to lowering costs and reflects
the Company’s ability to capture the benefit of synergies from
recent acquisitions. The Company reduced its 2024 full year capital
expenditure budget from $35 to $45 million to $25 to $35
million.

(1) MBoe is determined using the
ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of crude oil, condensate
or NGLs (totals may not compute due to rounding). The conversion
ratio does not assume price equivalency and the price on an
equivalent basis for oil, NGLs and natural gas may differ
significantly. The realized prices presented above are
volume-weighted for production in the respective period.

W&T OFFSHORE, INC. AND
SUBSIDIARIESNon-GAAP Information
Certain financial information included in
W&T’s financial results are not measures of financial
performance recognized by accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures
are “Net Debt,” “Adjusted Net (Loss) Income,” “Adjusted EBITDA” and
“Free Cash Flow” or are derivable from a combination of these
measures. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its
analysis of performance. These disclosures may not be viewed as a
substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are
not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which
may be reported by other companies. Prior period amounts have been
conformed to the methodology and presentation of the current
period.
We calculate Net Debt as total debt (current and
long-term portions), less cash and cash equivalents. Management
uses Net Debt to evaluate the Company’s financial position,
including its ability to service its debt obligations.
Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to
Adjusted Net Loss
Adjusted Net (Loss) Income adjusts for certain
items that the Company believes affect comparability of operating
results, including items that are generally non-recurring in nature
or whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. These
items include unrealized commodity derivative gain, net, allowance
for credit losses, write-off of debt issuance costs, non-recurring
legal and IT-related costs, non-ARO P&A costs, and other which
are then tax effected using the Federal Statutory Rate.

W&T OFFSHORE, INC. AND
SUBSIDIARIESNon-GAAP Information
Adjusted EBITDA/ Free Cash Flow
Reconciliations
The Company also presents non-GAAP financial
measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. The Company defines
Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income plus net interest expense,
income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, depletion and
amortization, ARO accretion, excluding the unrealized commodity
derivative loss (gain), allowance for credit losses, non-cash
incentive compensation, non-recurring legal and IT-related costs,
non-ARO P&A costs, and other. Company management believes this
presentation is relevant and useful because it helps investors
understand W&T’s operating performance and makes it easier to
compare its results with those of other companies that have
different financing, capital and tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA
should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for
net income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows
from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted
EBITDA, as W&T calculates it, may not be comparable to Adjusted
EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, Adjusted
EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary
use.
The Company defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted
EBITDA (defined above), less capital expenditures, P&A costs
and net interest expense (all on an accrual basis). For this
purpose, the Company’s definition of capital expenditures includes
costs incurred related to oil and natural gas properties (such as
drilling and infrastructure costs and the lease maintenance costs)
and equipment but excludes acquisition costs of oil and gas
properties from third parties that are not included in the
Company’s capital expenditures guidance provided to investors.
Company management believes that Free Cash Flow is an important
financial performance measure for use in evaluating the performance
and efficiency of its current operating activities after the impact
of accrued capital expenditures, P&A costs and net interest
expense and without being impacted by items such as changes
associated with working capital, which can vary substantially from
one period to another. There is no commonly accepted definition of
Free Cash Flow within the industry. Accordingly, Free Cash Flow, as
defined and calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to
Free Cash Flow or other similarly named non-GAAP measures reported
by other companies. While the Company includes net interest expense
in the calculation of Free Cash Flow, other mandatory debt service
requirements of future payments of principal at maturity (if such
debt is not refinanced) are excluded from the calculation of Free
Cash Flow. These and other non-discretionary expenditures that are
not deducted from Free Cash Flow would reduce cash available for
other uses.
The following table presents a reconciliation of
the Company’s net (loss) income, a GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA
and Free Cash Flow, as such terms are defined by the Company:
