(1) Calculated as total production since
the acquisition date divided by 90.
- Revenues up 75%: Total revenues increased to US$89.8 million in 1Q2013 from US$51.3 million in 1Q2012, mainly as a result of
a significant increase in oil production and the incorporation of
new production from Colombia. Oil
revenues from Chilean operations increased by 5.3% to US$39.4 million and Colombian operations
contributed additional oil revenues of US$43.8 million. Oil revenues represented 93% of
total revenues.
- Adjusted EBITDA up 45% reaching US$49.7
million compared to US$34.3
million in 1Q2012, again mainly due to the incorporation of
Colombian operations and a higher oil composition in our
production. As at 31 March 2013,
Colombian operations accounted for 44% of Adjusted EBITDA.
- Netbacks increased 6% to US$41
per boe compared to US$38.9 per boe
in 1Q2012 reflecting the higher weighting of oil in the production
mix, as well as the incorporation of Colombian operations into the
portfolio.
