CARRIZO OIL & GAS, INC. ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS AND RAISES 2015 CRUDE OIL PRODUCTION GROWTH TARGET TO 19%

HOUSTON, August 6, 2015 - Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRZO) today announced the Company’s financial results for the second quarter of 2015 and provided an operational update, which included the following highlights:
 
Record Oil Production of 22,284 Bbls/d, 21% above the second quarter of 2014

Total Production of 36,118 Boe/d, 8% above the second quarter of 2014

Loss From Continuing Operations of $47.0 million, or ($0.92) per diluted share, and Adjusted Net Income (as defined below) of $20.4 million, or $0.39 per diluted share

Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) of $127.5 million

Raising 2015 crude oil production growth target to 19%

Carrizo reported a second quarter of 2015 loss from continuing operations of $47.0 million, or ($0.92) per basic and diluted share compared to income from continuing operations of $3.2 million, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2014. The loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2015 includes certain items typically excluded from published estimates by the investment community. Adjusted net income, which excludes the impact of these items as described in the statements of operations included below, for the second quarter of 2015 was $20.4 million, or $0.40 and $0.39 per basic and diluted share, respectively, compared to $32.4 million, or $0.72 and $0.70 per basic and diluted share, respectively, in the second quarter of 2014.

For the second quarter of 2015, adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, as described in the statements of operations included below (“Adjusted EBITDA”), was $127.5 million, a decrease of 12% from the prior year quarter as the impact of lower commodity prices more than offset the impact of higher production volumes.

Production volumes during the second quarter of 2015 were 3,287 MBoe, or 36,118 Boe/d, an increase of 8% versus the second quarter of 2014. The year-over-year production growth was driven primarily by strong results from the Company’s Eagle Ford Shale assets. Oil production during the second quarter of 2015 averaged 22,284 Bbls/d, an increase of 21% versus the second quarter of 2014; natural gas and NGL production averaged 83,006 Mcfe/d during the second quarter of 2015. Second quarter of 2015 production exceeded the high end of Company guidance for both oil and natural gas and NGLs due primarily to strong performance from the Company’s Eagle Ford Shale assets, an earlier-than-expected tie-in to sales for wells in the Utica Shale, and a lower-than-expected amount of voluntary production curtailments from its Marcellus Shale assets.

Drilling and completion capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2015 were $117.5 million. More than 90% of the second quarter drilling and completion spending was in the Eagle Ford Shale. Net land and seismic expenditures during the quarter were $18.8 million, as the company was able to increase its Eagle Ford Shale, Delaware Basin, and Area 1 Niobrara positions. As a result of drilling efficiencies, Carrizo now plans to drop one of its Eagle Ford rigs during the third quarter. Despite this, the Company expects to drill approximately 5% more wells in the play during 2015 than it initially planned with a three-rig program. The Company does not currently plan to increase its 2015 pace of completion activity in the Eagle Ford Shale in the present commodity price environment, and will instead add to its backlog of wells in the play. Carrizo is maintaining its full-year 2015 drilling and completion capital expenditure guidance of $470.0-$490.0 million as cost savings and efficiencies offset the impact of the additional drilling





activity. The Company is revising its 2015 land and seismic capital expenditure guidance to $45.0 million from $35.0 million to account for the larger-than-expected acreage acquisitions during the second quarter; Carrizo currently expects to allocate the majority of the remaining capital to acreage acquisitions in the Eagle Ford Shale and Delaware Basin.

Carrizo is tightening its 2015 oil production guidance to 22,350-22,500 Bbls/d from 22,100-22,500 Bbls/d. Using the midpoint of this range, the Company’s 2015 oil production growth guidance increases to 19% from 18% previously. For natural gas and NGLs, Carrizo is tightening its 2015 guidance to 74-76 MMcfe/d from 70-76 MMcfe/d. For the third quarter of 2015, Carrizo expects oil production to be 22,400-22,700 Bbls/d and natural gas and NGL production to be 64-70 MMcfe/d. A summary of Carrizo’s production, commodity price realization, and cost guidance is provided in the attached tables.

S.P. “Chip” Johnson, IV, Carrizo’s President and CEO, commented on the results, “The second quarter provided another challenging environment for our industry given depressed commodity prices combined with significant rainfall and flooding in South Texas. Despite these challenges, we were once again able to deliver crude oil production that exceeded our forecast. Additionally, we continued to expand our acreage position in several of our core plays, which further enhances our strong inventory of undrilled locations. We believe our combination of high return assets, operational flexibility, and strong balance sheet have us well positioned to manage the current environment and quickly ramp up production once we get an appropriate commodity price signal.

“During this period, we are focused on driving down costs and improving efficiencies throughout our operations. In the Eagle Ford Shale, we have been able to increase our drilling efficiency by approximately 25% since the first quarter of the year, and performance continues to improve. Combined with service cost reductions, this has resulted in more than a 35% decline in Eagle Ford Shale well costs since late last year. As a result of the efficiency gains, we now expect to drill approximately as many wells during a year with two rigs as we previously drilled with three. The increased drilling efficiencies combined with the backlog of wells we expect to have at year end should provide us with significant flexibility in 2016. With two rigs running in the Eagle Ford, we should be able to grow crude oil production by at least 10% in 2016, and maintain the ability to materially increase the growth rate if commodity prices warrant.

“We continue to test multiple spacing initiatives in the Eagle Ford Shale. To date, we have production from 17 pads drilled on 330 ft. spacing and we plan to complete our first stagger-stack pad testing 165 ft. effective lateral spacing later this quarter. We remain pleased with the performance of our spacing initiatives and are confident that our drilling inventory and resource potential in the Eagle Ford Shale will continue to expand.

“Recently, we spudded our first operated well in the Delaware Basin, the Mustang State 1H. We are excited to get the well drilled and completed as it is located nearby strong industry wells. We have also continued to expand our footprint in the Delaware Basin, and currently hold the rights to more than 26,000 net acres in the Wolfcamp Shale trend. We continue to add acreage in the Delaware Basin and believe it could become another growth driver for the Company.”

Operational Update

In the Eagle Ford Shale, Carrizo drilled 20 gross (16.8 net) operated wells during the second quarter, and completed 17 gross (14.1 net) wells. Crude oil production from the play rose to more than 18,900 Bbls/d for the quarter, up from approximately 18,700 Bbls/d in the prior quarter. At the end of the quarter, Carrizo had 26 gross (21.6 net) operated Eagle Ford Shale wells waiting on completion, equating to net crude oil production potential of approximately 8,100 Bbls/d. The Company is operating three rigs in the Eagle Ford Shale, but plans to reduce this to two by the end of the quarter. Carrizo currently expects to drill approximately 69 gross (62 net) operated wells and complete 65 gross (58 net) operated wells in the play during 2015.

With the addition of the two newbuild rigs that the Company took delivery of earlier this year, Carrizo has been able to dramatically improve its drilling efficiency in the Eagle Ford Shale, and is now drilling approximately 2.5 longer-lateral wells per rig per month, up from approximately 2.0 in the first quarter. These incremental efficiency gains coupled with further service cost reductions have allowed the Company to reduce well costs more than anticipated. Carrizo currently expects completed well costs for a 6,100 ft. lateral well to average $4.8 million in the play, down from $5.6 million previously.

Carrizo is currently testing multiple initiatives aimed at significantly increasing its drilling inventory on its existing acreage position. The Company’s undrilled and uncompleted Eagle Ford Shale inventory assumes a combination of 330 ft. and 500 ft. spaced wells. Carrizo is currently drilling all wells at 330 ft. spacing and is testing this tighter spacing in the areas currently spaced at 500 ft. in its inventory count. The Company currently has production from 17 pads on 330 ft. spacing, including seven pads on acreage that is still spaced at 500 ft. in its inventory count. Performance from the Company’s 330 ft. spaced wells in the Eagle Ford Shale continues to look very similar to wells drilled at wider spacing in each of the areas. Additionally, Carrizo is testing a stagger-stack concept in the Lower Eagle Ford Shale, which may allow it to further reduce effective lateral spacing in the Lower Eagle Ford below 330 ft. Carrizo has drilled or is drilling four pads to test various stagger-stack configurations down to effective lateral spacing





of approximately 165 ft. within the Lower Eagle Ford. Stagger stacking has the potential to increase undrilled inventory by up to 80% relative to a single layer development plan at 330 ft. spacing. Carrizo is also currently drilling its first infill well between existing, mature wells. Downspacing between existing, more widely spaced wells could add over 50 additional net locations. In the Upper Eagle Ford, the Company is drilling its first well which should be completed early in the fourth quarter. The Upper Eagle Ford is prospective across as much as 25% of the Company’s acreage position.

During 2015, Carrizo is also testing a number of completion techniques aimed at improving recovery from its existing undrilled inventory, including engineered completions, diversion systems (Biovert), advanced microseismic and fiber optic flow monitoring, increased proppant concentrations, and modified fluid and proppant formulations.

Carrizo has continued to add bolt-on acres to its position in the Eagle Ford Shale, with the added acreage located within the volatile oil window primarily in LaSalle County. The Company’s position in the trend now stands at more than 84,000 net acres. Carrizo continues to target additional acreage acquisitions in the core volatile oil window of the Eagle Ford Shale.

In the Utica Shale, Carrizo did not drill or complete any operated wells during the second quarter. Oil and condensate production during the quarter was more than 600 Bbls/d, a material increase from the first quarter as the two-well Wagler pad was hooked-up to sales during the quarter. While Carrizo does not currently plan to drill or complete any additional Utica Shale wells this year, it is actively working on ways to reduce costs in the play once it resumes drilling operations. Carrizo currently believes it will be able to drill wells in some parts of the condensate window of the play using two strings of casing, versus its previous well design that included three strings of casing. The Company currently expects that drilling a well with two strings of casing versus three would save approximately $0.8 million. In areas where the Company can drop a string of casing, Carrizo believes that it can reduce completed well costs for an 8,000 ft. lateral well to below $8.5 million.
 
During the second quarter, the Company signed a temporary marketing agreement with a midstream provider. As a result, Carrizo was able to hook its Wagler pad in northern Guernsey County, Ohio, to sales earlier than expected. The Company continues to be pleased with the performance of the wells, as they averaged more than 470 Bbls/d of condensate and approximately 2.0 MMcf/d of rich natural gas per well on restricted chokes over the first 90 days of production, and were still flowing at an average rate of nearly 500 Bbls/d of condensate per well after approximately 93 days of production. Carrizo operates the Wagler wells with an approximate 83% working interest.

Carrizo added bolt-on acres to its position in the Utica Shale during the quarter, with the added acreage located within the condensate window in Guernsey County. The Company’s position in the trend now stands at more than 28,900 net acres.

In the Delaware Basin, Carrizo spudded its first operated well to test the Wolfcamp Shale, the Mustang State 1H, earlier this quarter. The well is located in eastern Culberson County, TX, and is targeting the Wolfcamp A bench with a planned 7,500 ft. lateral. The Company currently expects to complete the well later this quarter. Carrizo expects to have an approximate 80% working interest in the well. Carrizo currently plans to spud four additional operated Wolfcamp Shale wells this year.

The Company has continued to build its position in the oil and condensate windows of the Wolfcamp Shale trend within the Delaware Basin, and currently holds more than 26,000 net acres. The Company is actively seeking to further expand its acreage position in the Delaware Basin.

In the Niobrara Formation, Carrizo drilled 5 gross (3.0 net) operated wells and completed 3 gross (1.5 net) operated wells during the second quarter. Crude oil production from the Niobrara was more than 2,600 Bbls/d for the quarter, an increase of approximately 11% versus the prior quarter. During the second quarter, Carrizo laid down the rig it was operating in the Niobrara. The Company’s current plans do not call for additional operated drilling or completion activity within the play during 2015. For the year, Carrizo expects to drill 13 gross (5 net) operated wells and complete 3 gross (2 net) operated wells in the play. The Company also expects to continue to participate in non-operated wells drilled by Whiting and Noble within its core area.

Well costs in the Niobrara have continued to benefit from service cost reductions and efficiency gains. As a result, the Company now expects completed well costs in the play to average $2.8 million, down from $3.1 million previously.

Carrizo is monitoring nearby industry wells targeting the deeper Codell formation, and plans to participate in a non-operated Codell test on its acreage later this year. Nearby industry wells have targeted Codell thickness of approximately 10-13 ft. of pay, and Carrizo estimates that approximately 10,900 net acres, or more than 30%, of its Niobrara position has Codell thickness of at least 10 ft.

During the second quarter, Carrizo added to its acreage position in the Niobrara trend. The Company added approximately 1,900 net acres, located entirely in Area 1, bringing its total position in the play to approximately 36,200 net acres. The Company’s partners have the right to participate in the acquired acreage, and Carrizo currently expects them to participate for a 30% interest, which





would leave the Company with approximately 35,600 net acres in the play. Carrizo estimates that the additional acreage should add more than 45 net locations to its Area 1 drilling inventory.

In the Marcellus Shale, Carrizo did not complete any operated wells during the second quarter. Natural gas production from the Marcellus was 36.3 MMcf/d in the second quarter, roughly flat with the prior quarter. Due to continued voluntary production curtailments owing to weak local market prices, Carrizo continues to produce well below its productive capacity in the play. Carrizo does not currently plan to drill or complete any wells in the Marcellus during 2015.

Financial Position and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2015, Carrizo had total debt outstanding of $1,371.4 million and cash and cash equivalents of $2.0 million. Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined by the agreement governing the revolving credit facility and based on the trailing four quarters) was 2.6x for the second quarter.

Hedging Activity

Carrizo currently has hedges in place for over 70% of estimated crude oil production for the balance of 2015 (based on the midpoint of guidance). For the remainder of the year, the Company has collars on approximately 16,200 Bbls/d of crude oil at a weighted average floor price of $50.00/Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of $67.34/Bbl. In addition to its current crude oil hedge position, Carrizo will also continue to get the benefit from the offsetting hedge transactions it entered into during the first quarter of 2015; these transactions locked in an additional $78.9 million of cash flows for the second half of 2015.

During the quarter, the Company added additional hedges for the first quarter of 2016. Carrizo now has collars on approximately 10,000 Bbls/d of crude oil at a weighted average floor price of $52.13/Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of $72.60/Bbl for the first quarter of 2016.

Carrizo also has hedges in place for approximately 60% of estimated natural gas production for the balance of 2015 (based on the midpoint of guidance). For the remainder of the year, the Company has swaps on approximately 30,000 MMBtu/d at a weighted average price of $4.29/MMBtu.
