CARRIZO OIL & GAS, INC. ANNOUNCES CONTINUED TRANSFORMATION TO OIL WITH RECORD OIL PRODUCTION, REVENUE AND EBITDA IN FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2012 FINANCIAL RESULTS

HOUSTON, February 26, 2013 - Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRZO) today announced the Company’s record financial results for the fourth quarter of 2012, which included the following highlights:

Results for the fourth quarter of 2012-

Record Oil Production of 9,033 Bbls/d, a 4% sequential increase over the third quarter of 2012 and a 190% increase over the fourth quarter of 2011

Natural Gas and NGL Production of 100,924 Mcfe/d

Total Production of 2,379 MBoe, or 25,859 Boe/d

Record Oil Revenue of $81.2 million, amounting to 76% of total revenue, a 6% sequential increase over the third quarter of 2012 and a 188% increase over the fourth quarter of 2011

Record Revenue of $107.5 million, or adjusted revenue of $116.7 million, including the impact of realized hedges, a 12% sequential increase over the third quarter of 2012 and a 93% increase over the fourth quarter of 2011

Net Income of $18.5 million, $0.46 per diluted share, or Adjusted Net Income (as defined below) of $21.7 million, $0.54 per diluted share

Record EBITDA (as defined below) of $93.0 million, an 8% sequential increase over the third quarter of 2012 and a 90% increase over the fourth quarter of 2011

Production volumes during the fourth quarter of 2012 were 2,379 MBoe, an increase of 25 MBoe, or 1%, from third quarter of 2012 production of 2,354 MBoe. The 1% sequential increase in production from the third quarter of 2012 to the fourth quarter of 2012 was primarily due to new wells brought on during the quarter primarily in the Eagle Ford and Niobrara partially offset by decreases in the Niobrara due to the sales to affiliates of OIL India Ltd. and Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. in connection with the joint ventures, which closed during the fourth quarter of 2012.

Adjusted revenues were $116.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, which includes oil and gas revenues of $107.5 million and realized hedge gains of $9.2 million, compared to adjusted revenues of $66.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, which includes oil and gas revenues of $55.8 million and realized hedge gains of $10.5 million. The increase in adjusted revenues was primarily driven by the significant increase in oil production partially offset by lower gas production. Including the impact of realized hedges, the Company’s average realized oil price decreased 1% to $99.57 per barrel for





the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $100.26 per barrel for the fourth quarter of 2011 and the average realized gas price decreased 2% to $3.48 per Mcf for the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $3.55 per Mcf for the fourth quarter of 2011. Oil and gas revenues and average realized prices excluding the impact of realized hedges are presented in the table below.

Adjusted net income, which excludes certain non-cash items described in the statements of income included below (“Adjusted Net Income”), was $21.7 million, or $0.55 and $0.54 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the fourth quarter of 2012, as compared to $9.1 million, or $0.23 per basic and diluted share during the fourth quarter of 2011. The Company reported net income of $18.5 million, or $0.47 and $0.46 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to net income of $6.5 million, or $0.17 and $0.16 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2011.

Earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation, and depletion and amortization, as described in the statements of income included below (“EBITDA”), was $93.0 million, or $2.34 and $2.32 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the fourth quarter of 2012, as compared to $48.9 million, or $1.24 and $1.23 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the fourth quarter of 2011.

Lease operating expenses were $8.9 million ($3.73 per Boe) for the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to lease operating expenses of $6.9 million ($3.48 per Boe) for the same period in 2011. The $2.0 million increase in lease operating expenses is primarily due to increased production from new wells partially offset by the sale of Barnett properties to Atlas Resource Partners, L.P. ("Atlas"). The increase in operating cost per Boe is primarily due to the higher operating cost per Boe associated with the increased oil production.

Production taxes were $3.9 million (or 3.6% of oil and gas revenues) for the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $2.0 million (or 3.5% of oil and gas revenues) for the same period in 2011. The increase in production taxes is due primarily to increased oil production. The increase in production taxes as a percentage of oil and gas revenues was primarily due to increased oil production, which has a higher effective production tax rate as compared to our natural gas production.

Ad valorem taxes increased to $1.6 million ($0.66 per Boe) for the three months ended December 31, 2012 from $0.9 million ($0.47 per Boe) for the same period in 2011. The increase in ad valorem taxes is due primarily to new oil wells drilled in 2011. The increase in ad valorem taxes per Boe is due primarily to new oil wells drilled in 2011, which have higher property tax valuations as compared to our natural gas wells.

General and administrative expense was $9.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared to $7.6 million during the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily due to compensation costs related to an increase in personnel in the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) expense for the fourth quarter of 2012 increased $17.2 million to $44.2 million ($18.56 per Boe) from the DD&A expense for the fourth quarter of 2011 of $27.0 million ($13.57 per Boe). The increase in DD&A is attributable to both the increase in production and an increase in the DD&A rate per Boe. The increase in the DD&A rate per Boe is largely due to the impact of the significant decrease in natural gas reserves in the Barnett as a result of the Atlas sale as well as the significant increase in crude oil reserves in the Eagle Ford that were added in 2012, which have a higher finding cost per Boe than our natural gas reserves.

Cash interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, increased to $13.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared to $7.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to interest on the $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.625% Senior Notes issued in the fourth quarter of 2011 as well as interest on the $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 7.50% Senior Notes issued in the third quarter of 2012 partially offset by a decrease in interest expense attributable to reduced borrowings outstanding under the U.S. revolving credit facility during the fourth quarter of 2012.

An unrealized loss on derivatives of $4.4 million was recorded for the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared to an unrealized loss on derivatives of $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 due to the change in fair value of our open derivative positions during those periods.






Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $1.1 million was recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $5.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in the fair value of stock appreciation rights as the stock price decreased during the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared to an increase in stock price during the same period of 2011, partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense due to a higher number of restricted stock awards outstanding during the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011.

The estimated annual effective income tax rates (which are used for purposes of computing Adjusted Net Income) for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were 38.1% and 36.6%, respectively. The actual effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2012 was 32.6%, which was lower than the estimated annual effective income tax rate due to the foreign tax benefit of our U.K. Huntington field development project. Substantially all of the income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was offset by prior period adjustments related to the Company's state and U.K. income tax provisions recorded during the fourth quarter of 2011.

Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2012-

Record Oil Production of 7,820 Bbls/d, an increase of 256% over the same period of 2011

Record Total Production of 9,436 MBoe, or 25,781 Boe/d, an increase of 26% over the same period of 2011

Record Oil Revenue of $286.1 million, amounting to 78% of total revenue, an increase of 279% over the same period of 2011

Record Revenue of $368.2 million, or adjusted revenue of $406.2 million, including the impact of realized hedges, an 82% increase over the same period of 2011

Net Income of $55.5 million, $1.39 per diluted share, or Adjusted Net Income of $67.5 million, $1.69 per diluted share

Record EBITDA of $319.0 million, an 85% increase over the same period of 2011

Production volumes during the year ended December 31, 2012 were 9,436 MBoe, an increase of 1,925 MBoe, or 26%, compared to production of 7,511 MBoe during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in production was primarily due to increased production from new wells, partially offset by normal production decline, the Atlas sale and the sale of substantially all of our non-core area Barnett properties to KKR Natural Resources ("KKR") in May 2011.

Adjusted revenues were $406.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes oil and gas revenues of $368.2 million and realized hedge gains of $38.0 million, compared to $231.9 million for the same period of 2011, which includes oil and gas revenues of $202.2 million and realized hedge gains of $29.7 million. The increase in adjusted revenues was primarily driven by increased oil production and prices partially offset by lower gas prices. Including the impact of realized hedges, the Company’s average realized oil price increased 6% to $100.50 per barrel for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $94.67 per barrel for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the average realized gas price decreased 23% to $2.87 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $3.73 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2011. Oil and gas revenues and average realized prices excluding the impact of realized hedges are presented in the table below.

Adjusted Net Income was $67.5 million, or $1.71 and $1.69 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $38.7 million, or $0.99 and $0.98 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company reported net income of $55.5 million, or $1.40 and $1.39 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to net income of $36.6 million, or $0.94 and $0.92 per basic and diluted share for the same period of 2011.

EBITDA was $319.0 million, or $8.06 and $7.97 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $172.1 million, or $4.40 and $4.34 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the same period of 2011.






Lease operating expenses were $31.5 million ($3.34 per Boe) for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to lease operating expenses of $28.3 million ($3.77 per Boe) for the year ended December 31, 2011. Lease operating expenses increased $3.2 million primarily due to increased production from new wells partially offset by the Atlas and KKR sales. The decrease in operating cost per Boe is due to the Atlas and KKR sales (which were higher operating cost per Boe properties as compared to our remaining Barnett properties) partially offset by the higher operating cost per Boe associated with oil production.

Production taxes were $13.5 million (or 3.7% of oil and gas revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $5.7 million (or 2.8% of oil and gas revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in production taxes is due primarily to increased oil production. The increase in production taxes as a percentage of oil and gas revenues was primarily due to increased oil production, which has a higher effective production tax rate as compared to our natural gas production.

Ad valorem taxes increased to $9.8 million ($1.04 per Boe) for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $3.6 million ($0.48 per Boe) for the same period of 2011. The increase in ad valorem taxes is due primarily to new oil wells drilled in 2011 and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s February 2012 enactment of an “impact fee” on the drilling of unconventional natural gas wells. Because of the retroactive nature of the impact fee, approximately $1.0 million of ad valorem taxes recognized during 2012 is attributable to wells drilled prior to 2012. The increase in ad valorem taxes per Boe is due primarily to new oil wells drilled in 2011, which have higher property tax valuations as compared to our natural gas wells, as well as the recognition of the impact fee in 2012.

General and administrative expense was $32.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $25.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs related to an increase in personnel in the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011.

DD&A expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased $81.0 million to $165.6 million ($17.55 per Boe) from the DD&A expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 of $84.6 million ($11.26 per Boe). The increase in DD&A is attributable to both the increase in production and an increase in the DD&A rate per Boe. The increase in the DD&A rate per Boe is largely due to the impact of the significant decrease in natural gas reserves in the Barnett as a result of the Atlas and KKR sales as well as the increase in crude oil reserves in the Eagle Ford that have been added during 2011 and 2012, which have a higher finding cost per Boe than our natural gas reserves.

Cash interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, increased to $43.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $26.1 million for the same period of 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to interest on the $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.625% Senior Notes issued in the fourth quarter of 2011 as well as interest on the $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 7.50% Senior Notes issued in the third quarter of 2012.

An unrealized loss on derivatives of $7.2 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to an unrealized gain on derivatives of $15.7 million for the same period of 2011 due to the change in fair value of our open derivative positions during those periods.

Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $11.7 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $11.9 million for the same period of 2011. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was primarily due to a decrease in the fair value of stock appreciation rights due to a decrease in stock price during 2012 as compared to an increase in stock price during 2011, partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense due to a higher number of restricted stock awards outstanding during 2012 as compared to 2011.

The estimated annual effective income tax rates (which are used for purposes of computing Adjusted Net Income) for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were 38.1% and 36.6%, respectively. The actual effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 31.8%, which was lower than the estimated annual effective income tax rate due to the foreign tax benefit of our U.K. Huntington field development project. The actual effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2011 was 33.2%, which was lower than the estimated annual effective income tax rate due to revisions of prior period estimates of state income taxes as well as prior period adjustments related to the Company's state and U.K. income tax provisions recorded during the fourth quarter of 2011.






S.P. “Chip” Johnson, IV, President and CEO of Carrizo commented on the quarter's results, "Our fourth quarter performance once again sets new records on a number of fronts, capping off a transformational year for the Company. Thanks to our record oil production, we reported the highest quarterly revenue and EBITDA in the history of the Company. We have now reported sequential revenue growth for the last nine quarters and remain confident that this growth trend will continue. Executing on our approved development plans and using reasonable assumptions for commodity prices, our operations could show sequential quarterly growth in revenue and EBITDA in 2013. As I mentioned in our recent reserves press release, we are seeing dramatic benefits from our transformation to a more oily company. Our EBITDA margin per Boe expanded once again to $39.08 from $36.73 last quarter and from $24.55 for the fourth quarter of 2011. Our EBITDA margin came in at 80% this quarter, even higher than the 74% reported for the fourth quarter of 2011.

“Our staff has done a remarkable job of managing both our rapid growth and our changing production mix. This quarter we exceeded the high end of guidance for both oil and gas production. We grew our EBITDA to $93.0 million for the quarter, an increase of 90% from the fourth quarter of 2011, and to $319.0 million for the year, an increase of 85% from 2011. These exceptional results exclude any adjustment for the loss of approximately 7,572 Boe/d of production associated with the sale of 53.8 MMBoe of reserves during the year.
“We enter 2013 well positioned for continued growth with every drillsite for the year already identified, and currently with over $100.0 million of cash and an undrawn revolving credit facility.”
