SECOND QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Kolibri's President and Chief Executive Officer, Wolf Regener commented:
"We are pleased that the Company was able to generate positive adjusted funds flow of $1.5 million during the second quarter of 2021 without any new capital expenditures due to the low decline rates of our existing wells. The Company has already made principal repayments of $2.8 million so far in 2021, including payments made after the end of the quarter, which has reduced our interest expense by almost 40%. The $18.3 million outstanding balance on the credit facility is down from a peak debt of $30.0 million in 2019. Going forward this year, the Company expects its low decline rates to allow the Company to continue to generate positive cash flow from its operations. Without the unrealized losses from commodity hedges in 2021, the Company would have recognized positive net income.
The Company's $0.3 million PPP loan was forgiven by the SBA in the second quarter of 2021, so this amount was recognized into income.
Adjusted funds flow was $1.5 million in the second quarter 2021 compared to $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. The decrease was mainly due to lower production and realized losses on the commodity contracts in 2021 partially offset by the average price increase.
Net revenue increased by 131% in the second quarter of 2021 as average prices increased by 166% which was partially offset by production decreases of 15% compared to the prior year quarter.
Netback from operations for the second quarter of 2021 increased to $30.30/boe compared to $8.41/boe, an increase of 260% from the prior year second quarter due to higher prices in 2021. Netback including commodity contracts for the second quarter of 2021 was $23.49/boe which was 11% higher than the prior year second quarter amount of $21.15/boe.
Interest expense decreased by 29% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the comparable prior year period due to principal payments on the credit facility during the second half of 2020 and 2021 which reduced the outstanding loan balance and lower interest rates.
The Company's G&A expenses increased by 4% due to higher advisor fees in the second quarter of 2021 which offset cost cutting measures.
Operating expenses averaged $8.81 per BOE for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $6.07 per BOE for the same period in 2020. The increase was mainly due to higher production taxes in the second quarter of 2021 which were $2.67 per BOE compared to $0.81 per BOE in the prior year second quarter. Operating expense per boe excluding production taxes for the second quarter of 2021 increased by 16% compared to the prior year quarter due to one-time field maintenance costs incurred in 2021.
Average production was 994 BOEPD in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 1,163 BOEPD in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 15%. The decrease was due to the normal production decline of the Company's existing wells.
The Company incurred a net loss in the second quarter of 2021 of $1.4 million, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2020. The Company recorded an unrealized loss from commodity contracts of $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to an unrealized loss of $2.3 million recorded in the second quarter of 2020."
