HOUSTON, Aug. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Yuma Energy,
Inc. (NYSE American: YUMA) (the "Company" or "Yuma") today
announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.
Second Quarter 2017 Highlights
- Net average production was 2,553 Boe/d for the second quarter
of 2017, a 39.1 percent increase over the second quarter of
2016.
- Cash provided by operations was $2,889,407 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to cash used in
operations of $2,442,876 in the same
period in 2016.
- The Company sold non-core properties in Brazos County, Texas for $5.5 million (prior to purchase price
adjustments) and reduced its debt by $7.5
million from $39.5 million at
the end of the first quarter of 2017 to $32.0 million at the end of the second quarter of
2017.
- The Company increased its Permian Basin acreage position to
2,491 acres (2,180 net acres) in Yoakum
County, Texas to horizontally develop the San Andres Oil
Play. This acreage is within the Area of Mutual Interest ("AMI")
covering approximately 33,280 acres that was established as part of
a joint development agreement entered into earlier this year with
two privately held energy firms. Yuma is the operator of the
acreage with an 87.5 percent working interest and intends to spud
its first joint venture well in 2017, as well as continue to
acquire additional acreage within the AMI.
Recent Developments
- Yuma spud the Weyerhaeuser 14-1 well in Livingston Parish,
which is referred to as the Glacier Prospect, on July 29, 2017. Drilling is currently at 13,058
feet, with total depth projected to be 15,098 feet, which the
Company intends to reach before the end of August.
Management Comments
Sam L. Banks, CEO of Yuma Energy,
Inc., commented, "During the second quarter we were able to
increase our acreage position in the Permian Basin at very
attractive prices and look forward to continuing to expand our
position in the San Andres horizontal play and spudding our first
well there in 2017. In addition, we are excited about our
recently spudded well in our Glacier Prospect. We believe our
business strategy of generating organic opportunities through the
drill bit and increasing our exposure to the Permian Basin will
lead to significant shareholder value over time. As can be
seen in our first and second quarter results, 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.
