CALIFORNIA bry FOCUSED OIL DRIVEN Investor Presentation October 2019 BRY NasdaQ Listed October 2019


 
bry Disclaimer This presentation includes forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties that could materially affect our expected results of operations, liquidity, cash flows and business prospects. Such statements specifically include our expectations of our future financial position, liquidity, cash flows, results of operations and business strategy, potential acquisition opportunities, other plans and objectives for operations, maintenance capital requirements, expected production and costs, reserves, hedging activities, capital investments, return of capital, improvement of recovery factors and other guidance. Actual results may differ from expectations, sometimes materially, and reported results should not be considered an indication of future performance. You can typically identify forward-looking statements by words such as anticipate, achievable, believe, budget, continue, could, effort, estimate, expect, forecast, goal, guidance, intend, likely, may, might, objective, outlook, plan, potential, predict, project, seek, should, target, will or would and other similar words that reflect the prospective nature of events or outcomes. For any such forward-looking statement that includes a statement of the assumptions or bases underlying such forward-looking statement, we caution that, while we believe such assumptions or bases to be reasonable and make them in good faith, assumed facts or bases almost always vary from actual results, sometimes materially. Material risks that may affect us appear in Risk Factors in our current Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Factors (but not all the factors) that could cause results to differ include: • volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices; • price and availability of natural gas; • our ability to obtain permits and otherwise to meet our proposed drilling schedule and to successfully drill wells that produce oil and natural gas in commercially viable quantities; • changes in laws or regulations; • our ability to use derivative instruments to manage commodity price risk; • inability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to obtain adequate financing to fund capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements; • the impact of environmental, health and safety, and other governmental regulations, and of current, pending or future legislation; • uncertainties associated with estimating proved reserves and related future cash flows; • our ability to replace our reserves through exploration and development activities; • untimely or unavailable drilling and completion equipment or crew unavailability or lack of access to necessary resources for drilling, completing and operating wells; • our ability to make acquisitions and successfully integrate any acquired businesses; and • market fluctuations in electricity prices and the cost of steam. Except as required by law, we undertake no responsibility to publicly revise our forward-looking statements after the date they are made. All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue. This presentation includes management’s projections of certain key operating and financial metrics. Key assumptions underlying these projections include forecasted average ICE (Brent) oil sales prices based on the average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months in accordance with SEC guidance. The unweighted arithmetic average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months ending December 31 which were $71.54 per Bbl ICE (Brent) for oil and NGLs and $3.10 per MMBtu NYMEX (Henry Hub) for natural gas at December 31, 2018. The volume-weighted average prices over the lives of the properties were $66.49 per Bbl of oil and condensate, $32.87 per Bbl of NGLs and $2.806 per Mcf. Material assumptions also include a consistent and stable regulatory environment; timely and available drilling and completion equipment and crew availability and access to necessary resources for drilling, completing and operating wells; availability of capital; and accessibility to transport and sell oil and natural gas product to available markets. While Berry believes that these assumptions are reasonable in light of management’s current expectations concerning future events, the estimates underlying these assumptions are inherently uncertain and speculative and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties discussed above. This presentation has been prepared by Berry and includes market data and other statistical information from sources believed by it to be reliable, including independent industry publications, government publications or other published independent sources. Some data is also based on Berry’s good faith estimates, which are derived from its review of internal sources as well as the independent sources described above. Although Berry believes these sources are reliable, it has not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness. While Berry currently expects that its actual results will be within the ranges described herein, there will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially greater or less than those contained in these projections. The type curves provided in this presentation are prepared solely by Berry’s internal reserve engineers without third-party verification, by conducting a decline curve analysis of production results from Berry’s wells to generate an arithmetic mean of historical production for each project. Berry relied on the production results through April 2019 for its own wells that it submitted to the Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources of the California Department of Conservation (“DOGGR”), which results are publicly available at maps.conservation.ca.gov/doggr/wellfinder/#openModal, to generate the type curves. . Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on Berry’s type curves presented herein, and Berry’s actual production results and ultimate recoveries may differ substantially.
