Operational Results & Update

Subsequent to closing the sale of its North Park Basin assets in the first quarter of 2021, all of SandRidge’s operations are focused in the Mid-Continent region of

Oklahoma

and

Kansas

.

Production

Production totaled 1,733 MBoe (19.0 MBoed, 13.1% oil, 35.4% NGLs and 51.5% natural gas) for the three-months ended June 30, 2021. Production totaled 3,374 MBoe (18.6 MBoed, 15.3% oil, 33.6% NGLs and 51.1% natural gas) for the six-months ended June 30, 2021.

Production in the Mid-Continent totaled 1,733 MBoe (19.0 MBoed, 13.1% oil, 35.4% NGLs and 51.5% natural gas) or the three-months ended June 30, 2021. Production in the Mid-Continent totaled 3,307 MBoe (18.3 MBoed, 13.5% oil, 34.3% NGLs and 52.2% natural gas) for the six-months ended June 30, 2021.

Well Reactivation Program

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company began returning wells to production that were previously curtailed due to the commodity price downturn in the first half of 2020 and, in many cases, improving their production potential through modest capital improvements. Focused efforts to improve operating costs, along with commodity prices rebounding from their 2020 lows, have bolstered the economics of these well reactivation projects. High rates of return and low execution risk support the Company’s belief that these projects represent an efficient use of capital. As of

June 30, 2021

, the Company brought forty-nine wells back online, resulting in average incremental production of 0.8 MBoed in the first half of 2021. Approximately thirty of these wells required workovers to return to service and accounted for capital expenditures of

$0.6 million

and expense dollars of

$0.8 million

. The balance of the wells required little to no expense to reactivate.

Proved Developed PV-10

Management believes the unaudited proved developed PV-10 reserve value of SandRidge’s Mid-Continent assets to be approximately

$321 million

,
⁽¹⁾
with an effective date of

July 1, 2021

, as routinely updated for the quarter from the Company’s engineered year-end 2020 reserves, consistent with standard industry reserve practice, including performance and commercial updates for price differentials, operating expenses and other commercials, based on the historical trailing 12 month averages, using NYMEX strip pricing as of

July 30, 2021

.

Natural Gas Flaring Mitigation

Subsequent to the 1Q21 sale of its North Park Basin assets in

Colorado

, SandRidge is no longer engaged in the routine flaring of produced natural gas.

Overriding Royalty Interest Acquisition

On

April 22, 2021

, the Company announced the acquisition of all the overriding royalty interest assets of SandRidge Mississippian Trust I (the “Trust”). The gross purchase price was

$4.9 million

(net

$3.6 million

, given the Company’s 26.9% ownership of the Trust).


(1)	Management’s internal unaudited proved developed reserve PV-10 for second quarter 2021, utilizing forward-looking pricing and other assumptions, do not reflect audited or engineered SEC historical price-based reserves, as routinely updated from the Company’s year-end 2020 reserves, consistent with industry practice, for performance, price differentials, operating expenses, and other commercial factors. Pricing assumptions include July 30, 2021 NYMEX strip pricing (average WTI of $70.53 per Bbl and average Henry Hub of $3.77 per Mcf) as well as price realizations and lease operating expense, based on a historical twelve-month trailing average.

2021 Guidance Update

Due to the incorporation of the aforementioned well reactivation program into its 2021 plans, the Company is updating production, expense, and capital expenditures guidance for 2021. The Company is also updating 2021 commodity price realization guidance to midpoints of 95% and 27% of WTI for oil and NGLs, respectively, and 60% of Henry Hub for natural gas. All other guidance figures remain unchanged from the Company’s

May 11, 2021

update.

	Prior Guidance	Updated Guidance
Production
Oil (MMBbls)	0.6 – 0.9	0.8 – 1.0
Gas (Bcf)	15.0 – 19.0	18.0 – 22.0
NGLs (MMBbls)	1.7 – 2.1	2.0 – 2.4
Total Production (MMBoe)	4.8 – 6.2	5.8 – 7.1
Daily Production (MBoed)	13.2 – 16.9	15.9 – 19.4

LOE+Expense Workovers ($MM)	$28.0 – $34.0	$33.0 – $38.0

Total Capital Expenditures ($MM)	$5.0 – $10.0	$9.0 – $15.0

Liquidity and Capital Structure

As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s total liquidity was

$98.3 million

, based on

$88.3 million

of cash, excluding restricted cash and

$10.0 million

available under its credit facility. As of

August 6, 2021

, the Company’s cash on hand, including restricted cash, was approximately

$104

.9 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to GAAP measures, and you should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Below is additional disclosure regarding each of the non-GAAP measures used in this press release, including reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Operating Cash Flow

The Company defines operating cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities as shown in the following table. Operating cash flow is a supplemental financial measure used by the Company’s management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others who follow the industry as an indicator of the Company’s ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt. The Company also uses this measure because operating cash flow relates to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements that the Company may not control and may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred. Further, operating cash flow allows the Company to compare its operating performance and return on capital with those of other companies without regard to financing methods and capital structure. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization – other and depreciation and depletion – oil and natural gas. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented herein, is EBITDA excluding items that management believes affect the comparability of operating results such as items whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring, as shown in the following tables.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides useful additional information used by the Company’s management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, ratings agencies and others who follow the industry for analysis of the Company’s financial and operating performance on a recurring basis and the Company’s ability to internally fund exploration and development and to service or incur additional debt. In addition, management believes that adjusted EBITDA is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas industry. The Company’s adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Stockholders to Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Stockholders

The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) excluding items that management believes affect the comparability of operating results and are typically excluded from published estimates by the investment community, including items whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring, as shown in the following tables.

Management uses the supplemental measure of adjusted net income (loss) as an indicator of the Company’s operational trends and performance relative to other oil and natural gas companies and believes it is more comparable to earnings estimates provided by securities analysts. Adjusted net income (loss) is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) available to common stockholders.

Reconciliation of G&A to Adjusted G&A

The Company reports and provides guidance on Adjusted G&A per Boe because it believes this measure is commonly used by management, analysts and investors as an indicator of cost management and operating efficiency on a comparable basis from period to period and to compare and make investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas industry. This non-GAAP measure allows for the analysis of general and administrative spend without regard to stock-based compensation programs and other non-recurring cash items, if any, which can vary significantly between companies. Adjusted G&A per Boe is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for general and administrative expense per Boe. Therefore, the Company’s Adjusted G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other companies’ similarly titled measures.

The Company defines adjusted G&A as general and administrative expense adjusted for certain non-cash stock-based compensation and other non-recurring items, if any, as shown in the following tables:

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2021				Three Months Ended June 30, 2020
