HOUSTON, TX – (PR Newswire – November 13, 2017) –
Yuma Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: YUMA) (the
“Company” or “Yuma”) today announced its financial results for the
quarter ended September 30, 2017.
Third Quarter 2017 Highlights
●
Net average
production of 2,348 Boe/d for the third quarter of 2017, a 53.5
percent increase over the third quarter of 2016.
●
Cash provided by
operations of $4,472,028 for the nine months ended September 30,
2017, compared to cash used in operations of $927,802 in the same
period in 2016.
●
Yuma’s
Permian Basin acreage position has increased to 3,068 acres (2,685
net acres) in Yoakum County, Texas to horizontally develop the San
Andres Oil Play. Yuma is the operator of the acreage with an 87.5
percent working interest, and has spud its salt water disposal well
and intends to drill its first joint venture well in 2017, as well
as continue to acquire additional acreage within its 33,280 acre
Area of Mutual Interest (“AMI”).
●
Yuma’s
borrowing base on its credit facility was reaffirmed on September
8, 2017 at $40.5 million, with the next scheduled redetermination
set for April 1, 2018.
Recent Developments
●
Yuma closed its common stock offering of
9,600,000 shares of common stock on October 3, and subsequently on
October 31, 2017, the Underwriters exercised their overallotment
option and purchased 500,000 additional shares of common stock to
bring the total gross proceeds of the offering to $10,100,000
before deducting underwriters’ fees and offering
expenses.
Management Comments
Sam L.
Banks, CEO of Yuma Energy, Inc., commented, “We have
continued to increase our acreage position in the Permian Basin at
very attractive prices and are currently preparing to drill our
first horizontal well and salt water disposal well in the San
Andres horizontal oil play. We intend to finish drilling operations
for both wells in 2017 and to establish commercial production
during the first quarter of 2018. We continue to believe that
increasing our exposure to the Permian Basin, and more specifically
the San Andres horizontal oil play, will lead to significant
shareholder value over time. As can be seen in the results of our
first three quarters, the merger with Davis has improved our cash
flows and financial position and significantly increased our
production.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This
release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Statements that are not strictly historical statements constitute
forward-looking statements and may often, but not always, be
identified by the use of such words such as “expects,”
“believes,” “intends,”
“anticipates,” “plans,”
“estimates,” “potential,”
“possible,” or “probable” or statements
that certain actions, events or results “may,”
“will,” “should,” or “could” be
taken, occur or be achieved. The forward-looking statements include
statements about future operations, and estimates of reserve and
production volumes. Forward-looking statements are based on current
expectations and assumptions and analyses made by the Company in
light of experience and perception of historical trends, current
conditions and expected future developments, as well as other
factors appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether
actual results and developments will conform with expectations is
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not
limited to: the risks of the oil and gas industry (for
example, operational risks in exploring for, developing and
producing crude oil and natural gas); risks and uncertainties
involving geology of oil and natural gas deposits; the uncertainty
of reserve estimates; revisions to reserve estimates as a result of
changes in commodity prices; the uncertainty of estimates and
projections relating to future production, costs and expenses;
potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or
development projects or capital expenditures; health, safety and
environmental risks and risks related to weather; further declines
in oil and natural gas prices; inability of management to execute
its plans to meet its goals, shortages of drilling equipment, oil
field personnel and services, unavailability of gathering systems,
pipelines and processing facilities and the possibility that
government policies may change. The Company’s
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,
recent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, recent current reports on
Form 8-K, and other Securities and Exchange Commission filings
discuss some of the important risk factors identified that may
affect its business, results of operations, and financial
condition. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update
publicly any forward-looking statements, except as required by
law.
