Mid-Con Energy Partners, LP Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2016 Financial and Operating Results, 2016 Year End Proved Reserves, and 2017 Guidance
TULSA, February 28, 2017 - Mid-Con Energy Partners, LP (NASDAQ: MCEP) ("Mid-Con Energy" or the "Partnership") announces financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2016. Also included within the release is the Partnership's guidance for the full year ended December 31, 2017.
"I would like to acknowledge the operational success our team delivered during 2016 in light of challenging market conditions for most in the oil industry," commented Jeff Olmstead, Chief Executive Officer. "In response to lower oil prices, we continued our efforts to reduce costs in the field and office. Cash operating expenses, consisting of lease operating expenses ("LOE"), production taxes, cash general and administrative ("G&A"), and cash interest expense were $25.36/Boe for the full year 2016 and $24.01/Boe during the fourth quarter of 2016. On a per Boe basis, these cash costs declined 11.7% and 13.9% for the comparable periods year-over year, respectively. Full year and fourth quarter 2016 LOE per Boe decreased 21.5% and 23.0% year-over-year, respectively.
"We reduced borrowings outstanding by approximately one-third, or $58.0 million, during the year as a result of cost reductions, combined with assets sales and net proceeds from our preferred equity raise in excess of acquisitions. We ended the year with $18.0 million in accessible borrowings under our revolving credit facility which had a borrowing base of $140.0 million at December 31, 2016. We have positioned Mid-Con Energy for continued success in 2017 and established plans to accelerate key waterflood developments in our Permian and Northeastern Oklahoma core areas."

FOURTH QUARTER 2016 RESULTS
Production - Production for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 353 MBoe, or 3,837 Boe/d. On a daily basis, this represents a 3.0% decrease from the third quarter of 2016 and a 19.6% decrease year-over-year. The decrease in sequential volumes was primarily due to disposition of the Hugoton core area in July 2016, declines in select Permian properties under primary production and recent commitments to add injection in our Permian and Northeastern Oklahoma core areas. During the quarter, the Partnership adjusted the target injection formation for two wells and converted six wells from producers to injectors, effectively sacrificing near-term production to benefit the waterflood response in future periods. In addition to the divestiture of the Hugoton core area, the decrease in year-over-year volumes reflected cost savings initiatives implemented in early 2016 that resulted in the temporary shut-in of 184 uneconomic wells in response to lower oil pricing.
Price Realizations - Oil and natural gas sales were $15.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, or $44.31/Boe. This represents an 11.9% increase from the third quarter of 2016 and a 19.8% increase year-over-year, on a per Boe basis. Cash settlements from matured derivatives, inclusive of net premiums, were $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, or $2.18/Boe. Cash settlements from matured derivatives, inclusive of net premiums, for the third quarter of 2016 and the fourth quarter of 2015 were $3.25/Boe and $13.29/Boe, respectively. The resulting realized prices, including cash settlements from matured derivatives, were $46.49/Boe for the fourth quarter of 2016, $42.84/Boe for the third quarter of 2016, and $50.28/Boe for the fourth quarter of 2015.
2
Operating Revenues - Operating revenues, which include cash settlements from matured derivatives, inclusive of net premiums, were $16.4 million, or $46.49/Boe in the fourth quarter of 2016. This was up 8.5% from the previous quarter and down 7.5% from the fourth quarter of 2015, on a per Boe basis. The positive sequential variance was due to 11.9% higher prices, partially offset by lower production. On a year-over-year basis, the negative variance per Boe was the result of lower production and lower cash settlements from matured derivatives, inclusive of net premiums.
Lease Operating Expenses - LOE was $5.1 million, or $14.56/Boe, in the fourth quarter of 2016, a 7.1% decrease from the third quarter of 2016 and a 23.0% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2015, on a per Boe basis. In addition to ongoing cost reduction initiatives, the decrease in average LOE per Boe, on a sequential and year-over-year basis, reflected the full quarter impact of the divestiture of our higher cost Hugoton core area and lower cost Permian Bolt-On acquisition on a relative basis.
Production Taxes - Production taxes in the fourth quarter of 2016 were $0.8 million, or $2.31/Boe, reflecting an effective tax rate of 5.2%. The effective tax rates for the third quarter of 2016 and the fourth quarter of 2015 were 5.2% and 5.3%, respectively.
Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization Expenses (“DD&A”) - DD&A for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $5.5 million, or $15.65/Boe. On a per Boe basis, fourth quarter of 2016 was flat compared to the previous quarter and decreased 19.0% from the fourth quarter of 2015. The decrease in DD&A per Boe year-over-year was primarily due to the overall decreased book value of the underlying assets in our portfolio due to an impairment charge incurred during the fourth quarter of 2015.
General and Administrative Expenses - G&A during the fourth quarter of 2016 was $1.6 million, or $4.56/Boe, and included $0.2 million in non-cash equity-based compensation expense related to the Partnership’s long-term incentive program. G&A during the third quarter of 2016 was $1.7 million, or $4.71/Boe, and included $0.3 million in non-cash equity-based compensation expense. G&A during the fourth quarter of 2015 was $1.9 million, or $4.28/Boe, and included $0.2 million in non-cash equity-based compensation expense. The sequential decrease in G&A was primarily due to lower professional fees, public reporting expenses, and a reduction in rent expense as the result of the relocation of our Dallas, Texas, headquarters to Tulsa, Oklahoma, in an effort to consolidate office space. The year-over-year decrease in aggregate G&A of $0.3 million was attributable to non-recurring legal and professional expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015, and corporate cost savings that included headcount reductions, office space consolidation, and successful reductions in discretionary G&A spending.
Net Interest Expense - Net interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $1.5 million, or $4.25/Boe, a 10.3% decrease from the third quarter of 2016 and a 1.6% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2015, on a per Boe basis. The sequential and year-over-year decrease in net interest expense was the result of material reductions in borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, partially offset by lower production and a higher average effective interest rate. The Partnership reduced total debt by $5.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2016 and by $58.0 million during the year ended 2016. The average effective interest rate was approximately 3.8% in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to 3.7% in the third quarter of 2016 and 3.3% in the fourth quarter of 2015.
3
Net Loss - For the fourth quarter of 2016, Mid-Con Energy reported a net loss of $3.3 million, or $0.14 per limited partner unit (basic and diluted), based on an average of 29.9 million limited partner units outstanding during the fourth quarter of 2016. Net loss for the third quarter of 2016 was $2.4 million, or $0.09 per limited partner unit (basic and diluted), based on an average of 29.9 million limited partner units outstanding during the period. For the fourth quarter of 2015, net loss was $58.0 million, or $1.93 per limited partner unit (basic and diluted), based on an average of 29.7 million limited partner units outstanding during the period. The negative sequential variance was primarily attributable to lower cash settlements received from matured derivatives and changes in the mark-to-market value of our unsettled derivatives. Additionally, the Partnership recorded a $63.0 million non-cash impairment charge during the fourth quarter of 2015.
Adjusted EBITDA - Adjusted EBITDA, a Non-GAAP measure, for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $9.0 million, a 24.2% decrease sequentially and a 52.6% decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2015. On a per Boe basis, Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $25.50/Boe compared to $32.62/Boe in the third quarter of 2016 and $43.26/Boe in the fourth quarter of 2015. Sequentially and year-over-year, the variance on a per Boe basis was driven by lower production and lower cash settlements from derivatives, inclusive of net premiums, partially offset by lower LOE and G&A.
Distributable Cash Flow (“DCF”) - DCF, a Non-GAAP measure, for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $6.2 million after subtracting $1.1 million in cash interest expense, $1.1 million in estimated maintenance capital expenditures, and $0.5 million in distributions to preferred unitholders from Adjusted EBITDA. Relative to the third quarter of 2016 and the fourth quarter of 2015, DCF decreased 31.4% and 59.6%, respectively.
YEAR END 2016 ESTIMATED NET PROVED RESERVES
Mid-Con Energy’s year end 2016 estimated net proved reserves were 19.2 MMBoe, representing an approximate 13.9% decrease compared to year end 2015 estimated net proved reserves of 22.3 MMBoe. Reserves at year end 2016 were categorized as approximately 95% oil and approximately 65% proved developed, both on a per Boe basis.
At December 31, 2016, the standardized measure of the Partnership’s estimated net proved reserves was $157.3 million. The standardized measure represents the present value of estimated future net revenue to be generated from the production of proved reserves, determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, without giving effect to non-property related expenses, such as general and administrative expenses, debt service and future federal income tax expense, or to depreciation, depletion and amortization, and then discounted using an annual rate of 10 percent. Given Mid-Con Energy’s status as a limited partnership, the calculation of standardized measure does not include any provision for federal income tax expense.
The following table shows estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2016, as prepared by the Partnership’s internal reserve engineers and audited by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc., independent petroleum engineers.

HEDGING SUMMARY
Mid-Con Energy enters into various commodity derivative contracts intended to achieve more predictable cash flows by reducing the Partnership's exposure to short-term fluctuations in the prices of oil and natural gas. We believe this risk management strategy will serve to secure a baseline portion of our revenues and, by retaining some opportunity to participate in upward price movements, may also enable us to realize higher revenues during periods when prices rise.
As of February 28, 2017, the following table reflects volumes of Mid-Con Energy's production hedged by commodity derivative contracts, with the corresponding prices at which the production is hedged:

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release, the financial tables, and other supplemental information include “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Distributable Cash Flow,” each of which are non-generally accepted accounting principles (“Non-GAAP”) measures used by our management to describe financial performance with external users of our financial statements.
The Partnership believes the Non-GAAP financial measures described above are useful to investors because these measurements are used by many companies in its industry as a measurement of financial performance and are commonly employed by financial analysts and others to evaluate the financial performance of the Partnership and to compare the financial performance of the Partnership with the performance of other publicly traded partnerships within its industry.
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered an alternative to net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) plus:
• | Interest expense, net; |
• | Depreciation, depletion and amortization; |
• | Accretion of discount on asset retirement obligations; |
• | (Gain) loss on derivatives, net; |
• | Cash settlements received (paid) for matured derivatives, net; |
• | Cash settlements received for early terminations and modifications of derivatives, net; |
• | Cash premiums received (paid) upon settlement for derivatives, net; |
• | Cash premiums paid at inception of derivatives, net; |
• | Impairment of proved oil and natural gas properties; |
• | Impairment of proved oil and natural gas properties sold; |
• | Non-cash equity-based compensation; |
• | (Gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, net. |
Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less:
• | Cash interest expense; |
• | Estimated maintenance capital expenditures; |
• | Other non-operating cash (income) expense; and |
• | Distributions to preferred unitholders. |
