FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS

  • Set a fifth consecutive Company annual record for employee and contractor safety, achieving a Total Recordable Incident Rate of 0.40. Over 600,000 man-hours were completed on the Cedar Creek Anticline (“CCA”) CO 2 pipeline and EOR project without a recordable safety incident.
  • Completed the 105-mile CCA CO 2 pipeline ahead of schedule and under budget, which made Denbury the largest operator of CO 2 pipelines in the U.S. by mileage.
  • Received third-party verification of the negative Carbon Intensity (“CI”) of Denbury’s blue oil production at the West Hastings and Bell Creek CO 2 floods, resulting in a CI score ranging between -40 to -20 grams of CO 2 equivalent emitted per megajoule of energy.
  • Acquired the Big Sand Draw and Beaver Creek EOR fields in Wyoming, including surface facilities and a 46-mile CO 2 transportation pipeline.
  • Divested non-producing surface acreage in the Houston area for $15 million, and sold undeveloped deep mineral rights in Wyoming for $18 million.
  • Generated more than $55 million of free cash flow (1) (a non-GAAP measure).
  • Invested $252 million of development capital, at the low end of the Company’s original development capital guidance range.
  • Reduced the Company’s total debt by $103 million over the last year, and exited 2021 with $532 million of financial liquidity (cash on hand and borrowing capacity under the Company’s existing credit facility).

Calculated using weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 55.1 million and 53.8 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

2021 CCUS HIGHLIGHTS

  • Established the Denbury Carbon Solutions team to drive the Company’s CCUS strategy.
  • Executed a term sheet with Mitsubishi Corporation for the transport and storage of CO 2 captured from Mitsubishi’s proposed ammonia project along the U.S. Gulf Coast. The agreement covers a 20-year period, and Mitsubishi’s project is targeted to produce associated CO 2 emissions of approximately 1.8 million metric tons per year, beginning in the latter half of the decade.
  • Commenced a joint evaluation with Mitsui E&P USA LLC of potential opportunities across the U.S. Gulf Coast to develop carbon-negative oil assets utilizing industrial-sourced CO 2 . As part of the evaluation, the parties seek to jointly pursue CO 2 offtake opportunities from Mitsui’s potential projects along the Gulf Coast.
  • Announced joint development of a Texas Gulf Coast sequestration site with Gulf Coast Midstream Partners, with the potential to store up to 400 million metric tons of CO 2 . The EPA Class VI permitting process has been initiated and sequestration is estimated to be available by early 2025.

EXECUTIVE COMMENT

Chris Kendall, Denbury’s President and CEO, commented, “I am incredibly proud of our dedicated employees’ achievements throughout 2021 despite many challenges, including the ongoing pandemic and its impacts. First and foremost, we set another record on safety performance, the top priority for me and the entire Denbury leadership team. We further established the framework upon which we will execute our CCUS vision, placing Denbury as the leader in this evolving industry. Within our core operations, we completed the CCA CO 2 pipeline project on time and under budget, and I thank our employees and contractors for their exceptional efforts in achieving this great outcome. We successfully initiated the CCA CO 2 flood which we expect will be one of the largest CO 2 floods in the world, and I’m pleased to share that we started Phase 1 injection early this month. This important milestone will greatly enhance our EOR business and increase Denbury’s production of carbon negative blue oil, which we believe will become a highly desired commodity. Further and importantly, our strong EOR business will provide significant cash flow with which to fund our CCUS investments.

As we enter 2022, we are extremely excited about what lies ahead for Denbury. Our expansive CO 2 pipeline network and proven track record in all aspects of CO 2 transportation and injection positions Denbury as the ideal partner to provide CCUS solutions. We demonstrate our expertise continuously by safely transporting and injecting the nearly ten thousand tons of CO 2 we receive daily from our industrial partners into underground formations. We built on these strengths in 2021 with the execution and establishment of several new CCUS agreements that further set the stage for even greater success in our CCUS operations. My aspiration is that all of Denbury’s existing and future CCUS customers will recognize Denbury as the experienced and accountable partner upon whom they can rely to safely handle their captured CO 2 for decades to come.”

FOURTH QUARTER 2021 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS

Denbury’s fourth quarter 2021 total revenues and other income totaled $362 million, a five percent increase over third quarter 2021 levels, driven primarily by an improvement in underlying commodity prices and improved oil price differentials. The Company’s fourth quarter 2021 average pre-hedge realized oil price was $75.68 per barrel (“Bbl”), which was $1.22 per Bbl below NYMEX WTI oil prices. Denbury’s average differential improved more than 50 cents per Bbl from the third quarter of 2021 as values for the Company’s Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain region sales volumes both improved relative to WTI.

Oil and natural gas sales volumes averaged 48,882 BOE/d during the fourth quarter of 2021, down modestly from the third quarter of 2021 and lower than expectations primarily as a result of unplanned downtime in December. In addition, lower volumes at CCA were attributed to increased oil prices and profitability resulting in more volumes allocated to the third-party net profits interest in that field. Oil represented 97% of the Company’s fourth quarter 2021 volumes, with 25% of the Company’s oil produced through the injection of industrial-sourced CO 2 , resulting in carbon-negative blue oil.

Lease operating expense in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $116 million, or $25.75 per BOE, consistent with the Company’s expectation. The slight increase on a per BOE basis from the third quarter 2021 was primarily related to higher commodity prices as higher oil prices increase the Company’s CO 2 costs and higher natural gas prices increase power expenses. Transportation and marketing expenses for the quarter totaled $7 million, consistent with the third quarter of 2021 and reflecting improved contractual arrangements for certain of the Company’s Rocky Mountain region oil volumes.

General and administrative expenses were $16 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, in line with expectations and relatively consistent with the third quarter of the year. Depletion, depreciation, and amortization (“DD&A”) expense was $37 million during the fourth quarter of 2021, or $8.25 per BOE, essentially flat with the third quarter of the year.

Commodity derivatives expense totaled $23 million in the final quarter of 2021, comprised of cash payments on hedges that settled in the quarter of $98 million, offset by a $75 million non-cash gain representing mark-to-market changes in the value of the Company’s hedging portfolio. The Company’s effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2021 was negligible, as virtually all of the tax expense/benefit generated is currently fully offset by a change in valuation allowance on its federal and state deferred tax assets.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Fourth quarter 2021 development capital expenditures totaled $78 million, bringing full-year 2021 capital expenditures to a total of $252 million, close to the low end of the Company’s original annual guidance range of $250 million to $270 million. Nearly 60% of the fourth quarter total was dedicated to the CCA EOR project, including the completion of the 105-mile CO 2 pipeline from Bell Creek to CCA, the booster station install, and the infield distribution system to prepare for CO 2 injection. The CCA CO 2 Pipeline was completed ahead of schedule and under budget. Line fill of CO 2 was also completed in 2021, and CO 2 injection into the Cedar Hills South and East Lookout Butte fields commenced in early February 2022. Tertiary oil production response is anticipated in the second half of 2023.

2021 PROVED RESERVES

The Company’s total estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2021, were 192 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBOE), consisting of 189 million barrels of crude oil and 17 billion cubic feet of natural gas. Proved reserves increased by 49 MMBOE during 2021, primarily resulting from increased commodity pricing utilized in determining economic reserves. As of the end of 2021, 95% of proved reserves were proved developed.

Year-end 2021 estimated proved reserves and the discounted net present value of Denbury’s proved reserves, using a 10% per annum discount rate (“PV-10 Value”) (1) (a non-GAAP measure), were computed using first-day-of-the-month 12-month average prices of $66.56 per Bbl for oil (based on NYMEX prices) and $3.60 per million British thermal unit (“MMBtu”) for natural gas (based on Henry Hub cash prices), adjusted for prices received at the field. Comparative prices for 2020 were $39.57 per Bbl of oil and $1.99 per MMBtu for natural gas, adjusted for prices received at the field. The PV-10 Value (1) of Denbury’s proved reserves was $2.7 billion at December 31, 2021, compared to $0.7 billion at December 31, 2020.

Denbury’s estimated proved CO 2 reserves at year-end 2021 were 5.5 trillion cubic feet (“Tcf”), including 4.5 Tcf at Jackson Dome in Mississippi (on a gross basis) and 1.0 Tcf at LaBarge Field in Wyoming (overriding royalty interest). Total CO 2 reserves reflected a slight reduction from year-end 2020 due to 2021 production.

CONFERENCE CALL AND WEBCAST INFORMATION

Denbury management will host a conference call to review and discuss fourth quarter and full-year 2021 financial and operating results, as well as its outlook for 2022, today, Thursday, February 24, at 11:00 a.m. Central Time (12:00 p.m. Eastern Time). Additionally, Denbury will post supporting materials on its website before market open today. The presentation webcast will be available, both live and for replay, on the Investor Relations page of the Company’s website at www.denbury.com . Individuals who would like to participate in the conference call should dial the following numbers shortly before the scheduled start time: 877.705.6003 or 201.493.6725 with confirmation number 13723080.

Denbury is an independent energy company with operations and assets focused on Carbon Capture, Use, and Storage (CCUS) and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) in the Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain regions. For over two decades, the Company has maintained a unique strategic focus on utilizing CO 2 in its EOR operations and since 2012 has also been active in CCUS through the injection of captured industrial-sourced CO 2. The Company currently injects over three million tons of captured industrial-sourced CO 2 annually, and its objective is to fully offset its Scope 1, 2, and 3 CO 2 emissions within this decade, primarily through increasing the amount of captured industrial-sourced CO 2 used in its operations.

Combined results for the year ended December 31, 2020 are provided for illustrative purposes and are derived from the financial statement line items from the Successor and Predecessor periods. Because of the impact of various adjustments to the financial statements in connection with the application of fresh start accounting, including asset valuation adjustments and liability adjustments, certain results of operations for the Successor are not comparable to those of the Predecessor. Management believes that the combined results provide meaningful information to assist investors in understanding the Company’s financial results for the applicable period, but should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, independent results of the Predecessor and Successor periods for the year ended December 31, 2020 reported in accordance with GAAP.

Combined results for the year ended December 31, 2020 are provided for illustrative purposes and are derived from the financial statement line items from the Successor and Predecessor periods. Because of the impact of various adjustments to the financial statements in connection with the application of fresh start accounting, including asset valuation adjustments and liability adjustments, certain results of operations for the Successor are not comparable to those of the Predecessor. Management believes that the combined results provide meaningful information to assist investors in understanding the Company’s financial results for the applicable period, but should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, independent results of the Predecessor and Successor periods for the year ended December 31, 2020 reported in accordance with GAAP.

(2)

Working capital changes during the Successor period from September 19, 2020 through December 31, 2020 and the combined year ended December 31, 2020 include an approximately $52 million cash outflow related to settlement of the Riley Ridge helium supply contract claim with APMTG Helium, LLC (“APMTG”).

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP measure) to adjusted net income (non-GAAP measure)

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure provided as a supplement to present an alternative net income (loss) measure which excludes expense and income items (and their related tax effects) not directly related to the Company’s ongoing operations. Management believes that adjusted net income may be helpful to investors by eliminating the impact of noncash and/or special items not indicative of the Company’s performance from period to period, and is widely used by the investment community, while also being used by management, in evaluating the comparability of the Company’s ongoing operational results and trends. Adjusted net income should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or any other measure reported in accordance with GAAP, but rather to provide additional information useful in evaluating the Company’s operational trends and performance.

The year ended December 31, 2021 was further impacted by $7.0 million gain on land sales, slightly offset by $0.3 million write-off of trade receivables. The year ended December 31, 2020 was further impacted by $5.9 million gain on land sales, offset by $4.2 million write-off of trade receivables, $3.8 million of expense associated with Delta-Tinsley CO 2 pipeline repairs and $1.6 million of expense associated with the APMTG helium supply contract ruling.

(12)

The estimated income tax impacts on adjustments to net income (loss) for the Predecessor period is generally computed based upon a statutory rate of 25% applied to income before tax, which incorporates discrete tax adjustments primarily comprised of the tax effect of the ceiling test and accelerated depreciation, impacts of the CARES Act, valuation allowances, and the periodic tax impacts of a shortfall (benefit) on the stock-based compensation deduction.

DENBURY INC.
SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP measure) to Adjusted EBITDAX (non-GAAP measure)

Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure which management uses and is calculated based upon (but not identical to) a financial covenant related to “Consolidated EBITDAX” in the Company’s senior secured bank credit facility, which excludes certain items that are included in net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Items excluded include interest, income taxes, depletion, depreciation, and amortization, and items that the Company believes affect the comparability of operating results such as items whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX may be helpful to investors in order to assess the Company’s operating performance as compared to that of other companies in its industry, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical costs basis. It is also commonly used by third parties to assess leverage and the Company’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), cash flows from operations, or any other measure reported in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDAX, EBITDAX, or EBITDA in the same manner. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

DENBURY INC.
SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of cash flows from operations (GAAP measure) to adjusted cash flows from operations (non-GAAP measure) and free cash flow (non-GAAP measure)

Adjusted cash flows from operations is a non-GAAP measure that represents cash flows provided by operations before changes in assets and liabilities, as summarized from the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Adjusted cash flows from operations measures the cash flows earned or incurred from operating activities without regard to the collection or payment of associated receivables or payables. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that represents adjusted cash flows from operations less reorganization items settled in cash, interest treated as debt reduction, development capital expenditures and capitalized interest, but before acquisitions. Management believes that it is important to consider these additional measures, along with cash flows from operations, as it believes the non-GAAP measures can often be a better way to discuss changes in operating trends in its business caused by changes in sales volumes, prices, operating costs and related factors, without regard to whether the earned or incurred item was collected or paid during that period. Adjusted cash flows from operations and free cash flow are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to cash flows from operations, investing, or financing activities, nor as a liquidity measure or indicator of cash flows.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of the standardized measure of discounted estimated future net cash flows after income taxes (GAAP measure) to PV-10 Value (non-GAAP measure)

PV-10 Value is a non-GAAP measure and is different from the Standardized Measure in that PV-10 Value is a pre-tax number and the Standardized Measure is an after-tax number. Denbury’s 2021 and 2020 year-end estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves and proved CO 2 reserves quantities were prepared by the independent reservoir engineering firm of DeGolyer and MacNaughton. The information used to calculate PV-10 Value is derived directly from data determined in accordance with FASC Topic 932. Management believes PV-10 Value is a useful supplemental disclosure to the Standardized Measure because the Standardized Measure can be impacted by a company’s unique tax situation, and it is not practical to calculate the Standardized Measure on a property-by-property basis. Because of this, PV-10 Value is a widely used measure within the industry and is commonly used by securities analysts, banks and credit rating agencies to evaluate the estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves on a comparative basis across companies or specific properties. PV-10 Value is commonly used by management and others in the industry to evaluate properties that are bought and sold, to assess the potential return on investment in the Company’s oil and natural gas properties, and to perform impairment testing of oil and natural gas properties. PV-10 Value is not a measure of financial or operating performance under GAAP, nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Standardized Measure. PV-10 Value and the Standardized Measure do not purport to represent the fair value of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves.
