August 10, 2020 5:25 PM

Ring Energy (NYSE: REI) reported Q2 EPS of ($1.99), $1.99 worse than the analyst estimate of $0.00. Revenue for the quarter came in at $10.64 million versus the consensus estimate of $14.98 million.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kelly Hoffman, stated, “While volatility continued in the energy space in the second quarter, we began to see some improvement and stability in the commodity price itself. We had essentially shut-in all of our production and in early June began bringing the wells back on line. Currently we are producing approximately 9,000 net BOEs per day. With production curtailed in the 2nd quarter, we made the necessary decisions to reduce costs and improve efficiencies wherever possible. Operationally, in combination with the revenue derived from the hedges we had in place, not only did we operate profitably, but we continued to be cash flow positive for the third consecutive quarter. In June, we completed the spring redetermination on the Company’s senior credit facility. The immediate borrowing base was reduced to $375 million and the current outstanding balance on our facility is $375 million. We will continue to operate within cash flow and pay down our debt through a combination of excess cash flow and strategic asset sales. Commodity prices are continuing to strengthen and the economy is showing signs of improvement. We are anxious to resume our drilling and development program once we see sustainable received prices in the low to mid $40’s per BOE. We are confident that Ring will continue to grow and prosper in this extremely challenging environment.”
