SOURCE EnerCom, Inc.
FORT WORTH, Texas, May 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "While our first quarter 2019 results represented significant improvement over the year prior, it represented a temporary pause in what the market has come to expect in terms of our ongoing financial growth and maturation. In fact, very little of our planned completion activity contributed to our first quarter results. Just 3 of our planned 20 completions for the year added to first quarter production, and those completions represented just 11% of the total perforated interval we plan to bring onstream over the course of 2019. The quarter was also impacted by an unprecedented number of frac hits from offset wells. I am pleased to report that Lonestar's wells not only weathered those hits but now have been restored to full rate. In the second quarter, completion activity has accelerated significantly, with 6.0 gross / 5.2 net wells commencing flowback in May. These wells represent total perforated interval of 47,600 feet, or 27% of our anticipated total for 2019. Current net production is a record 14,000 BOE/d, and accordingly, we expect the second quarter to reflect significant sequential growth in production and Adjusted EBITDAX, which will accelerate in the third quarter, when we expect to set an all-time record for both."
OPERATIONAL UPDATE
GUIDANCE
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- WESTERN REGION
In our Western Region, production for the first quarter of 2019 averaged approximately 5,722 BOE per day, a 74% increase over the prior year. During 1Q19, Lonestar was hit by third party fracs across 9 of its pads, a total of 23 wells in its Western and Central regions. These offset frac hits led to curtailed production of approximately 330 BOE/d during the quarter and will also modestly impact sales in April. In aggregate, these wells have since recovered and returned to their third-party type curves. After completing 3 gross / 2.9 net wells at Burns Ranch during the first quarter, the Company focused its Western Region drilling activities to its Horned Frog region, which has some of the highest internal rate of returns ("IRR") in the Company's profile.
In April, the Company began flowback operations on the Horned Frog NW #4H and #5H. The Company holds a 100% working interest ("WI") / 75% net revenue interest ("NRI") in these wells. These wells were drilled to an average total measured depth of 19,716 and 19,672 feet and were fracture-stimulated using diverters with an average proppant concentration of 2,030 pounds per foot over 33 stages. Perforations and test rates for the for wells are:
These wells are our second set at our Horned Frog NW property and immediately offset the Horned Frog NW #2H and #3H, which were placed onstream last year. Early indications are that we have demonstrated two important technical achievements. First, we believe we have demonstrated the Company's capability to maximize lateral length while maintaining productivity per foot (these wells are 50% longer than our first pair). On a per foot basis, the new wells are producing at nearly identical rates compared to the 'parent' wells drilled last year. Additionally, we believe that we have demonstrated our ability to not damage productivity and recovery of the parent wells. After shut-in for fracture stimulation of our new #4H and #5H wells, the #2H and #3H have reestablished rates of production that exceed rates prior to shut-in.
In late April, the Company completed drilling operations on the Horned Frog F #1H and #2H. These wells were drilled to total measured depths of 22,675 and 22,520 feet, respectively, and are expected to have perforated intervals averaging 12,350 feet. Fracture stimulation operations are expected to begin in May with an average proppant concentration exceeding 2,000 pounds per foot. These wells are expected to begin flowback operations on or around July 1. Lonestar holds a 100% WI / 78% NRI in these wells.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- CENTRAL REGION
In our Central Region, 1Q19 production averaged approximately 5,391 BOE per day, a 33% increase over the prior year. On March 22, 2019, we completed the divestiture of our Pirate assets in Wilson County for $12.3 million, before closing adjustments, to a private operator. This asset contributed approximately 200 BOE/d. Despite this sale, the continued growth of the region was largely driven by the Sooner acquisition which occurred in November 2018.
The Company did not place any new wells onstream in the Central Region during the first quarter of 2019 but did complete drilling operations on the Georg #3H, Georg #4H, Georg #5H, and Georg #6H. These wells were drilled to average total measured depths ranging from 16,396 feet and 16,475 feet. Completion operations finished last week. The wells were fracture-stimulated using diverters with an average proppant concentration of 2,000 pounds per foot over 25 stages with average perforated intervals of 7,210 feet. Lonestar has an 80% WI / 61% NRI in these wells.
Completion operations on this four-well pad concluded last week. The wells were fracture-stimulated using diverters with an average proppant concentration of 2,000 pounds per foot over 25 stages. In the past week, these four wells were placed into flowback operations. Perforations and test rates for the for wells are:
At the end of the first quarter, the Company commenced drilling 3 gross / 3.0 net wells at its Sooner property, the Buchhorn #4H, Buchhorn #5H and Buchhorn #6H. These wells, our first at Sooner, have planned total measured depths of approximately 20,300 feet and expected perforated intervals of 6,000 feet. Lonestar expects to commence flowback operations on these wells in August 2019. Lonestar has a 100% WI / 78% NRI in these wells.
Lonestar is also currently drilling 2 gross / 2.0 net wells on assets in Fayette County acquired from Sanchez Energy in 2017. These wells, the Five Mile Creek E&B #A1H and the Five Mile Creek E&B #B2H are projected to be the longest laterals drilled by the Company to date, with projected perforated intervals of 13,000 feet.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- EASTERN REGION
In our Eastern Region, production for the first quarter of 2019 averaged approximately 259 BOE per day, a 41% decrease over the prior year. The Company did not complete any wells in this region in the first quarter. However, Lonestar has permitted a horizontal well intended to have a 10,000' perorated interval in western Brazos County. This well is on-strike with its Wildcat B#1H wells, which has produced a cumulative 460,000 BOE in 24 months of production. Lonestar plans to spud the well in June and expects to have a 50% WI / 38% NRI in the well.
CONFERENCE CALL DETAILS
Lonestar will host a live conference call on Monday, May 13, 2019 at 9:00 AM CDT to discuss the first quarter 2019 results and operational highlights.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense), unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
Adjusted net income (loss) comparable to analysts' estimates as set forth in this release represents income or loss from operations before income taxes adjusted for certain non-cash items (detailed in the accompanying table) less income taxes. We believe adjusted net income (loss) is calculated on the same basis as analysts' estimates and that many investors use this published research in making investment decisions and evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and gas producing companies. Diluted earnings per share (adjusted) as set forth in this release represents adjusted net income (loss) comparable to analysts' estimates on a diluted per share basis.

FORT WORTH, Texas, March 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") today reported financial and operating results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018.
HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "2018 was another year of tremendous per-share growth for Lonestar, coming from a balanced program of drilling and acquisitions. We generated a 81% increase in production and a 99% increase in Adjusted EBITDAX. We extended our track-record of low-cost reserve growth, registering all-sources finding and development costs of $9.07 per BOE while increasing our Proved reserves by 27%. In 2018, we demonstrated substantial improvements in productivity and returns in our core areas, and the focus of our 2019 and 2020 drilling programs will be in these core areas, and additionally on our recently-acquired Sooner property. We have designed our 24-month plan to focus our drilling on areas where we have demonstrated the highest IRR's in our portfolio, which are in both the crude oil window (Cyclone/Hawkeye and Karnes County), which are 85% oil / 7% NGL's / 5% gas, and condensate windows (Horned Frog and Sooner), which are 16% oil / 45% NGLs / 39% gas. This returns-focused program is expected to generate 20+% growth in production and EBITDAX through 2020. Importantly, this program is designed to allow the Lonestar to become cash flow self-sufficient in the second half of 2019 and for the full-year in 2020. As a result, we believe that Lonestar will be one of the few companies among its peers who can generate these levels of growth while doing so with internally generated cash flow."
OPERATIONAL UPDATE
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- WESTERN REGION
In our Western Region, production for the fourth quarter of 2018 averaged approximately 6,825 Boe per day, a 141% increase over the prior year. In October 2018, the Company completed drilling operations on the Asherton #1HN and Asherton #3HN. Through their first 90 days of production, these wells have produced on average 50,000 barrels of oil and 112,550 Mcf of natural gas, or 75,800 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis, or an average of 843 Boe/d per well over the first 90 days of production.
During 2019 the Company plans to drill 7 gross / 6.9 net wells in its Western region. In La Salle County, the first three wells, the Burns Ranch #11H, Burns Ranch #12H, and Burns Ranch #13H, began flowback operations and are the only wells being brought onstream during the first quarter of 2019. These wells were drilled to average total measured depths of 15,020, 15,030, and 15,036 feet, respectively. The Burns Ranch #11H, #12H, and #13H wells were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions using diverters with an average proppant concentration of 1,485 pounds per foot over 11 stages, 22 stages, and 22 stages, respectively. Lonestar has a 96% WI and 72% NRI in these wells.
Our second set of wells in our Western Region, the Horned Frog NW #4H and Horned Frog NW #5H, finished drilling operations last week and were drilled to total measured depths of 19,716 and 19,672 feet, respectively. Fracture stimulation operations are to begin next week with average proppant concentrations of 2,000 pounds per foot. These wells should begin flowback operations in mid-late April. Lonestar has a 100% WI and 75% NRI in these wells.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- CENTRAL REGION
In our Central Region, production for the fourth quarter of 2018 averaged approximately 5,991 Boe per day, a 56% increase over the prior year. The continued growth of the region was driven by the drilling and completion 2 gross / 1.3 net wells in the Hawkeye area in addition to production acquired in our Sooner Acquisition.
The acquisition, which occurred in November 2018, is 95% operated, included approximately 3,071 gross acres (2,693 net acres) and approximately 800 BOE/d of production on the date of the acquisition. It provides the Company with 26 drilling locations and expands Lonestar's Eagle Ford footprint into its 11th county, DeWitt. The Company plans to drill its first 3 gross / 3.0 net wells during the third quarter of 2019.
In December, the Company began flowback operations on the Hawkeye #24H and Hawkeye #25H. These wells were drilled to total measured depths of 20,050 and 19,665 feet, respectively. The Hawkeye #24H and #25H wells were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions using diverters with an average proppant concentration of 1,517 pounds per foot over 37 stages and 33 stages, respectively. The Hawkeye #24H was completed with a perforated interval of 10,407 feet and tested 937 Bbls/d of oil and 444 Mcf/d of natural gas, or 1,038 Boe/d (three-stream) on a 28/64'' choke. The Hawkeye #25H was completed with a perforated interval of 9,901 feet and tested 912 Bbls/d of oil and 385 Mcf/d of natural gas, or 1,000 Boe/d (three-stream) on a 26/64'' choke. Collectively, these wells have average Max-30 IP's of 764 Bbls/d oil and 397 Mcf/d of natural gas, or 855 Boe/d (three-stream) on a 32/64'' choke. Lonestar holds a 68% WI / 53% NRI in these wells.
During 2019 the Company plans to drill 12 gross / 11.2 net wells in its Central region. Lonestar is currently drilling its first set of wells in the region for 2019, the Georg #3H, Georg #4H, Georg #5H, and Georg #6H. These wells have planned total measured depths of approximately 16,400 feet and expected perforated intervals of 7,250 feet. Lonestar has an 80% WI / 61% NRI in these wells.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- EASTERN REGION
In our Eastern Region, production for the fourth quarter of 2018 averaged approximately 336 Boe per day, a 43% decrease over the prior year. The Company did not complete any wells in this region in 2018. Lonestar plans to return to Brazos during 2Q19 to drill a 1 gross / 0.5 net well. Lonestar will have a 50% WI / 39% NRI in this well.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense), unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
Adjusted net income (loss) comparable to analysts' estimates as set forth in this release represents income or loss from operations before income taxes adjusted for certain non-cash items (detailed in the accompanying table) less income taxes. We believe adjusted net income (loss) is calculated on the same basis as analysts' estimates and that many investors use this published research in making investment decisions and evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and gas producing companies. Diluted earnings per share (adjusted) as set forth in this release represents adjusted net income (loss) comparable to analysts' estimates on a diluted per share basis.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) before taxes for each of the periods indicated.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) announced its two-year capital plan and associated guidance.
A pillar of Lonestar's strategy is to use commodity derivatives to provide predictability of cash flows and returns. Accordingly, the Company has significantly augmented its crude oil and natural gas hedge book:
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III commented, "2018 was another year of tremendous per-share growth for Lonestar, coming from a balanced program of drilling and acquisitions. We generated a 73% increase in production and a 100% increase in Adjusted EBITDAX. We extended our track-record of low-cost reserve growth, registering all-sources finding and development costs of $8.80 per BOE while increasing our Proved reserves by 27%. In 2018, we demonstrated substantial improvements in productivity and returns in our core areas, and the focus of our 2019 and 2020 drilling programs will be in these core areas, and additionally on our recently-acquired Sooner property. While the 2019 commodity futures are lower than those we realized in 2018, the significant reduction in key energy service costs are expected to give our 2019 program more bang for our buck. Given our excellent 2018 results, we are very well-positioned to continue our track record of disciplined per-share growth in 2019 and as well as 2020."

FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) announced that its proved reserves at December 31, 2018 increased 27% to 93.3 million barrels of oil equivalent ("MMBOE") calculated using SEC guidelines. All of the Company's proved reserves are located in the Eagle Ford Shale.
Lonestar's proved reserves at December 31, 2018 are comprised of 53.4 million barrels of crude oil and condensate, 19.9 million barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGL's"), and 120.2 billion cubic feet of natural gas. By energy content, Lonestar's proved reserves are weighted 79% to crude oil, condensate and NGL's. See Table 1 for details.
Lonestar has also calculated reserves information at an alternate price deck of $55.00/bbl for West Texas Intermediate crude oil and $2.75/MMBTU for Henry Hub natural gas ("$55 Flat Price Deck"), which closely mirrors current forward benchmark prices. On this basis, the PV-10 associated with Lonestar's Proved reserves was $782.5 million and the PV-10 associated with the Company's Proved & Probable reserves was $919.9 million.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III commented, "2018 was another year of tremendous growth for Lonestar, coming from a balanced program of drilling and acquisitions. We extended our track-record of low-cost reserve growth, registering exceptional all-sources finding and development costs of $8.80 per BOE while increasing our Proved reserves by 27%. This reserve growth, which was prudently financed, positions Lonestar to significantly increase shareholder value in 2019 and beyond."
Bracken added, "At Lonestar, our objective is to deliver demonstrable growth in the value of our reserves on a per-share basis, while continually improving our balance sheet and financial flexibility. In 2018, we have delivered on that objective again. Our internal value benchmark, which is $55 Flat Price Deck PV-10, net of debt, increased 20% to $8.89 per fully diluted share based on Proved reserves and increased 22% to $12.33 per fully diluted share based on Proved & Probable reserves. I believe our growth in per-share value is even more impactful when we consider the fact that in the same time period, Lonestar reduced its Debt/EBITDAX ratio from 3.6x to 2.6x at year-end 2018."
The table below summarizes Lonestar's year-end proved reserves and PV-10 by region as determined by the Company's independent petroleum engineers, W.D. Von Gonten & Co. Petroleum Engineers. Based on rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, for the year ended December 31, 2018, Lonestar's proved reserves were estimated using the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the spot price on the first day of each month preceding the 12 months prior to the end of the reporting period. This methodology resulted in an average oil price of $65.56 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $3.10 per million British Thermal Units ("MMBTU"), an increase of 28% for crude oil and an increase of 5% for natural gas, as compared to an average of oil price of $51.34 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.96 per MMBTU used to estimate Lonestar's proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Total | 53.4 | 19.9 | 120.2 | 93.3 | $1,117.9 |
At December 31, 2018, based on SEC Pricing, Lonestar's PV-10 was $1.1 billion. PV-10 of the Proved Developed reserves calculated on the same basis was $464.9 million while PV-10 from our Proved Undeveloped reserves was $653.1 million.

Lonestar's capital expenditures totaled $209.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. These expenditures included $158.1 million for drilling and completion costs, $6.3 million for leasehold acquisition costs, $38.8 for the acquisition of producing properties acquisitions, $0.6 million for 3-D seismic data and $6.0 million for the construction of fieldwide infrastructure and included in development costs below.

Total | 67.4 | 27.0 | 162.7 | 121.5 | $1,335.8 |
Because the pricing utilized in the SEC methodology is higher than current benchmark market prices for crude oil, NGL's and natural gas, Lonestar has also calculated the PV-10 of its Proved reserves at a flat pricing deck of $55.00 for crude oil and $2.75 for natural gas (as described below, "$55 flat deck pricing"). On this basis, the Company's proved reserves were 92.0 MMBOE and PV-10 was $782.5 million. See Table 5 for details.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Dec. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") is updating its hedge position for recent transactions. Lonestar has taken advantage of recent strength in the natural gas markets to establish a swap position for 2019. To date, the Company has entered into NYMEX swaps for the first quarter of 2019 for 15,000 Mcf/d at an average price of $3.78 per MMBTU. Lonestar has also entered into NYMEX swaps for the fourth quarter of 2019 for 15,000 Mcf/d at an average price of $2.87 per MMBTU.
Lonestar also updated its crude oil hedge book for 2019. The Company currently has a WTI swap position totaling 6,000 bbl/d at an average price of $53.88/bbl. Lonestar has also entered into WTI/LLS basis swaps for an identical volume at an average positive basis of $5.05/bbl. Based on its previously released 2019 production outlook, these swaps provide price certainty for roughly 75% of Lonestar's 2019 oil production at an effective hedge price which exceeds $59.00/bbl and a premium to WTI.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III remarked, "Systematic hedging of a significant portion of our forward production has been an important element of Lonestar's strategy to grow net asset value per share while reducing risk. The high degree of cash flow certainty provided by our crude oil and natural gas hedges provide substantial insulation from commodity price volatility, creating a higher level of certainty to our financial results."
Lonestar also announced that it has entered into an agreement for a dedicated frac spread for 2019 with a leading energy service company. Bracken added, "A dedicated frac spread in 2018 was a critical component to Lonestar's ability to execute at a high level, allowing us to repeatedly exceed Street expectations. Entering into a similar agreement should ensure continued execution, and current market conditions for pressure pumping and sand should deliver considerable savings in our 2019 fracture stimulation costs when compared to 2018."
About Lonestar
Lonestar is an independent oil and natural gas company, focused on the development, production and acquisition of unconventional oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas properties in the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we,", "us," "our" or "the Company") announced that it has closed an acquisition of producing properties in the Eagle Ford Shale play (the "Acquisition"). Lonestar paid $38.7 million for a 3,084 gross / 2,706 net acres in the Sugarkane Field in DeWitt County, Texas from Sabine Oil & Gas Corporation (and an affiliate) and Alerion Gas AXA, LLC. The properties, 95% of which are operated, currently produce 800 boe/d from 20 wells. Estimated annualized EBITDAX from this level of production is $6 million. The effective date of the acquisition is August 1, 2018. Lonestar has identified 26 Lower Eagle Ford drilling locations, with additional drilling potential in the Upper-Lower Eagle Ford, the Upper Eagle Ford and the Austin Chalk.
Lonestar internally estimates that Proved reserves associated with the acquisition total 13.0 MMBOE, 3.2 MMBOE of which is Proved Developed Producing. 100% of these reserves are associated with the Lower Eagle Ford Shale. Based on the NYMEX Strip on November 15th (the day of closing), the Proved reserves have PV-101 of $77.0 million.
To account for the additional volumes associated with the acquired producing wells, Lonestar is raising its 2019 outlook. The Company is increasing its 2019 production outlook from a range of 13,000 – 14,000 boe/d to 13,700-14,700 boe/d and increasing its 2019 EBITDAX outlook from a range of $140-$160 million to $145-$165 million.
Lonestar also announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lonestar Resources America Inc., has closed an upsized and enhanced Senior Secured Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility"). Lonestar's borrowing base was increased from $190 million to $275 million. As of September 30, 2018, and proforma for the Acquisition, borrowings under the Credit Facility were $163.9 million, leaving $111.1 million of liquidity available under the new borrowing base. Lonestar's Credit Facility has also been amended favorably to the Company in that: 1) the interest rate grid that the Company pays has been reduced by 0.5%; and 2) the term of the Credit Facility was extended from July 2020 to November 2023.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "This acquisition is a continuation of Lonestar's core strategy of accretively expanding its Eagle Ford Shale position while maintaining a returns-focused investment approach. We have added meaningfully to our position in DeWitt County, in an area that features some of the thickest Lower Eagle Ford Shale in the Sugarkane Field. We believe the application of our Geo-Engineered drilling and completion process can yield highly productive wells that yield attractive rates of return on invested capital. As is typically the case with our acquisitions, we see potential to increase lateral lengths and further enhance returns."
Bracken concluded, "In combination with our expanded and enhanced Credit Facility, we have financed the Acquisition in a manner that leaves Lonestar with the highest level of liquidity in the Company's history while expanding our Eagle Ford Shale position in an attractive part of the play."
UBS Investment Bank acted as exclusive transaction advisor to Sabine.

1 PV‐10 is a non‐GAAP financial measure and represents the present value of estimated future cash inflows from proved crude oil and natural gas reserves, less future development and production costs, discounted at 10% per annum to reflect timing of future cash inflows and using the unweighted arithmetic average of the first‐day‐of‐the‐month price for each of the preceding twelve months. PV‐10 differs from the Standardized Measure because it does not include the effect of future income taxes.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 5, 2018 PRNewswire -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "In the second quarter, we achieved a production increase of 98% and a 131% increase in Adjusted EBITDAX. Our record-setting second quarter results also represent sharp sequential improvements of 43% for production and 25% for Adjusted EBITDAX. Our second quarter results begin to more fully reflect the outstanding drilling results we have generated thus far in 2018 and have generated operating metrics which continue to exceed guidance. Equally important to Lonestar's improved outlook is the considerable progress we have made in improving our debt metrics and liquidity. Since 2Q17, we have reduced Debt / EBITDAX (Last Quarter Annualized) from 5.4x to 2.8x in 2Q18"
Bracken further remarked, "Our momentum in the Eagle Ford Shale continues to build, and our technical, operational and financial achievements are delivering high price realizations, high margins and outstanding returns to our shareholders, giving us the confidence to augment our 2018 drilling and completion program. Not only can the expanded 2018 program be executed with drilling, completion and fracture stimulation equipment currently under contract, but extending that program deeper into 2018 provides seamless transition into our 2019 program. The visibility provided by a continuous drilling and completion program gives us the confidence to issue a preliminary 2019 Outlook, which sees production increasing by 24% over 2018 levels and Adjusted EBITDAX increasing by a similar amount. Importantly, this 2019 program can be executed with a single rig and can be essentially funded by internally generated cash flow."
OPERATIONAL UPDATE
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- WESTERN REGION
Asherton – In July 2018, Lonestar commenced drilling the Asherton #1H and Asherton #3H with planned total measured depths of approximately 17,680 feet. We project that these wells will have perforated intervals of approximately 10,800 feet. Drilling operations are underway and fracture stimulation operations are scheduled for October 2018. Lonestar owns a 99% working interest ("WI") and 75% Net Revenue Interest ("NRI") in these two wells.
Beall Ranch – In Dimmit County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended June 30, 2018. The Beall Ranch leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Burns Ranch Area – At the Burns Ranch leasehold in La Salle County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended June 30, 2018. The Burns Ranch leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here as part of its 2018 drilling and completion budget.
Horned Frog – In La Salle County, the Company further expanded its Eagle Ford Shale footprint by completing its first two locations at Horned Frog North West. The Horned Frog North West #2H and #3H commenced flowback operations in June, 2018. Results of these wells have been encouraging and have a substantially higher oil mix (+125% per foot) than the legacy Horned Frog acreage located to the South. The #2H and #3H wells were drilled to measured depths of 17,560 feet and 17,440 feet, respectively and were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions with an average proppant concentration of 2,030 pounds per foot across an average of 25 stages per well utilizing diverters. The Horned Frog NW #2H, which has a perforated interval of 7,489 feet, continues to be choke-managed, and produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 1,110 Boe/d, consisting of 573 barrels of oil per day, 185 barrels of natural gas liquids per day, and 2,113 Mcf/d of natural gas on a 22/64" choke. The Horned Frog NW #3H, which has a perforated interval of 7,331 feet, continues to be choke-managed, and produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 1,050 Boe/d, consisting of 551 barrels of oil per day, 172 barrels of natural gas liquids per day, and 1,964 Mcf/d of natural gas. Both of these wells are outperforming internal projections, particularly with respect to higher-than-expected oil rates. Lonestar holds a 100% WI and 75% NRI in these wells and has an additional 5 drilling locations offsetting these wells.
Lonestar owns a 100% WI in the Horned Frog G #1H and Horned Frog H #1H, which were placed onstream in March 2018. These wells have now been producing for in excess of four months and the results continue to outperform projections. After registering Max-30 IP's averaging 2,155 Boe/d, these wells continue to exhibit robust deliverability on a constant choke. During the first 120 days of production, the Horned Frog G #1H has produced cumulative production of 47,820 barrels of oil and 818,390 Mcf of natural gas, or 240,975 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis, an average of 2,008 Boe/d over its first 120 days of production. Over the same period, the Horned Frog H #1H has produced cumulative production of 44,235 barrels of oil and 753,898 Mcf of natural gas, or 222,171 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis, an average of 1,865 Boe/d over its first 120 days of production. To date, these are the two highest producing wells through the first 120 days of production in the Company's history and have outperformed third-party projections by 15%.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- CENTRAL REGION
Cyclone – In July 2018, the Company completed drilling operations on the Cyclone DM #13H and Cyclone DM #14H to total measured depths of 20,205 feet and 19,685 feet, respectively. The Cyclone DM #13H and #14H wells were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions with an average proppant concentration of 1,590 pounds per foot over 35 stages and 34 stages, respectively. The Cyclone DM #13H was completed with a perforated interval of 10,056 feet and tested 577 Bbls/d of oil and 329 Mcf/d of natural gas, or 652 Boe/d (three-stream) on a 28/64'' choke. The Cyclone DM #14H was completed with a perforated interval of 9,600 feet and tested 635 Bbls/d of oil and 362 Mcf/d of natural gas, or 718 Boe/d (three-stream) on a 28/64'' choke. Lonestar owns a 100% WI and 78.5% NRI in these wells.
Hawkeye – Lonestar owns an 87.5% WI in the Hawkeye #1H and Hawkeye #2H, which were placed onstream in January 2018. In May, these wells were put on artificial lift which actually increased production by an average of 17% vs. the prior 30 day period. The Hawkeye wells have continued to break away from forecast, outperforming third-party projections by 23%. Now online for 180 days, the Hawkeye #1H has produced a cumulative 115,800 barrels of oil and 63,517 Mcf of natural gas, or 130,356 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis, or an average of 727 Boe/d over its first 180 days of production. Over the same period, the Hawkeye #2H has produced a cumulative 99,335 barrels of oil and 53,615 Mcf of natural gas, or 111,620 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis, or an average of 617 Boe/d. The Company continues to grow its leasehold position in the Hawkeye area, having recently acquired approximately 976 gross / 976 net acres which is contiguous to our existing leasehold, which can accommodate 7 additional locations. Lonestar plans to drill two laterals on this newly acquired leasehold which are projected to average approximately 8,700' of perforated interval. We expect to place these wells onstream in November, 2018.
Karnes County – In May 2018, Lonestar completed the Georg EF #18H, Georg EF #19H, and Georg EF #20H to an average total measured depth of 15,450 feet. The Georg EF #18H, which has a perforated interval of 5,896 feet, produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 895 Boe/d, consisting of 775 barrels of oil per day, 64 barrels of natural gas liquids per day, and 336 Mcf per day of natural gas. The Georg EF #19H, which has a perforated interval of 6,116 feet, produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 898 Boe/d, consisting of 781 barrels of oil per day, 62 barrels of natural gas liquids per day, and 327 Mcf per day of natural gas. The Georg EF #20H, which has a perforated interval of 5,979 feet, produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 1,052 Boe/d, consisting of 925 barrels of oil per day, 68 barrels of natural gas liquids per day, and 356 Mcf per day of natural gas. Lonestar owns an 80% WI and 61% NRI in these wells. To date, these wells have outperformed the projections of our independent petroleum engineer.
Pirate – In Wilson County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended June 30, 2018. The Pirate leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Current Operations – Lonestar plans to bring six more wells in the Central Region onstream during the third quarter of 2018. In Karnes County, the Georg #24H, Georg #25H, and Georg #26H have total measured depths of 15,450 feet, 15,500 feet and 15,495 feet, respectively. Fracture stimulation operations have been completed and these wells are expected to begin flowback operations in mid-August. Lonestar owns an 80% WI and 61% NRI in these wells. In Gonzales County, the Culpepper #3-2H, Culpepper #3-3H, and Culpepper #4-4H, which were also drilled on leasehold obtained in the Battlecat acquisition, were drilled to total measured depths of 15,380 feet, 15,325 feet and 15,280 feet, respectively. Fracture stimulation is set to begin in August and flowback operations are forecast to begin in mid-September. Lonestar owns an 80% WI and 60% NRI in these wells.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- EASTERN REGION
Brazos & Robertson Counties – In Brazos County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended June 30, 2018. Lonestar is currently discussing drilling one well on our partners leasehold. Lonestar does not currently have drilling activity budgeted here in 2018.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net loss for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted Loss
Adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates as set forth in this release represents income or loss from operations before income taxes adjusted for certain non-cash items (detailed in the accompanying table) less income taxes. We believe adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates is calculated on the same basis as analysts' estimates and that many investors use this published research in making investment decisions and evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and gas producing companies. Diluted earnings per share (adjusted) as set forth in this release represents adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates on a diluted per share basis. A table is included which reconciles income or loss from operations to adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates and diluted earnings per share (adjusted).
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income to the GAAP financial measure of net loss for each of the periods indicated.

DENVER, Aug. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Regardless of whether your area of interest in the U.S. energy sector is the shale plays and companies drilling the U.S. basins, offshore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, oil pipelines, LNG exports, Texas-sourced frac sand, oilfield services or new oilfield technologies, the 23rd annual EnerCom conference will deliver the best of the industry to the Denver Downtown Westin Hotel Denver Aug. 19-22, 2018.
The combined market value of the presenting public companies is more than $220 billion and the publicly-traded energy companies represent a combined enterprise value of more than $275 billion—55% higher than last year.
Several privately held E&Ps and related energy service companies will be at the conference in force as well this year, participating in a variety of panels at the conference. Conference attendees have a rare opportunity to hear from several large private operators who—unlike their publicly traded counterparts—often say nothing in public about their operations.
Among the private oil companies participating in the conference is Anschutz Exploration, a large operator with assets in the Powder River and Washakie Basins of Wyoming, the Piceance and DJ Basins of Colorado and the Unita Basin of Utah. Other private drillers include Permian producer Felix Energy, DJ Basin producer Great Western Oil & Gas, conventional Piceance gas producer Caerus Oil and Gas, and Powder River and Green River Basin operator Samson Resources II.
Who Attends the Conference: More than 2,000 institutional, private equity and hedge fund investors, energy research analysts, retail brokers, trust officers, high net worth investors, investment bankers and energy industry professionals gather in Denver for the conference.
One-on-One Meetings: EnerCom works in advance with presenting company management teams to arrange one-on-one meetings with the attending institutional investors and research analysts at the conference venue. In 2017, EnerCom managed more than 2,100 one-on-one meeting requests. Buyside investors may request meetings on the conference website or contact EnerCom for more information at 303-296-8834.
How to Register: Investment professionals and oil and gas companies can register for the event through the conference website.

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
RECENT HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "In the first quarter, production increased by 48% and realized prices after hedging rose 24%, resulting in a 103% increase in EBITDAX. While we are pleased with the progress that our first quarter represents, our second quarter results will more fully reflect the outstanding drilling results we have generated thus far in 2018. The midpoint of our 2Q18 guidance reflects significant increases in production and EBITDAX over our 1Q18 results. Importantly, these results are expected to significantly strengthen our financial position. Since 2Q17, we have reduced Debt / EBITDAX (Last Quarter Annualized) from 5.4x to 3.4x, and expect that this ratio will improve to 3.0x or better in 2Q18. Our stronger financial position has allowed us to secure dedicated drilling and pressure pumping services, which is greatly enhancing our ability to control the quality, timing and costs of our capital program. Given the excellent start, we have increased our 2018 full-year production guidance to 10,300 to 11,000 Boe/d, which represents 65% growth versus 2017. We have also raised our full year 2018 Adjusted EBITDAX guidance to $110 to $125 million, representing a similar growth rate. While encouraged by our drilling results to date, we are highly focused on delivering exceptional results for our shareholders as we move through 2018 and beyond."
OPERATIONAL UPDATE
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- WESTERN REGION
Asherton – In Dimmit County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Asherton leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Beall Ranch – In Dimmit County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Beall Ranch leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Burns Ranch Area – In La Salle County, Lonestar was hit by offset fracs that negatively impacted production during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and the beginning of the three months ended March 31, 2018. Oil and gas rates have since rebounded above the production trend lines. The Company did not drill or complete any new wells during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Burns Ranch leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Horned Frog – In La Salle County, the Company completed the Horned Frog G #1H and H #1H, and commenced flowback operations on March 19, 2018. These wells were drilled to total measured depths of approximately 22,800 and 20,950 feet, respectively and were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions with an average proppant concentration of 1,650 pounds per foot across an average of 40 stages per well utilizing diverters. The Horned Frog G #1H, which has a perforated interval of 12,280 feet, produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 2,243 Boe/d, consisting of 467 barrels of oil per day, 643 barrels of natural gas liquids, and 6,799 Mcf per day of natural gas. The H #1H, which has a perforated interval of 10,445 feet, produced at a Max 30-day production rate of 2,067 Boe/d, consisting of 427 barrels of oil per day, 592 barrels of natural gas liquids, and 6,286 Mcf per day of natural gas. The Horned Frog G #1H rate marks the highest 30-day rate in the Company's history, exceeding the 2,123 Boe/d rates at Wildcat established in June 2017. As it has successfully done at Wildcat, Lonestar plans to stringently choke manage these wells to optimize the total liquids recovery over the life of these wells. Lonestar is encouraged by the early performance of its newest wells at Horned Frog. Lonestar has a 100% WI and 80% NRI in these wells. Lonestar has completed drilling operations on the Horned Frog North West #2H and #3H, in which it holds a 100% WI and 75% NRI. These wells have been drilled to measured depths of 17,560 feet and 17,440 feet, respectively and estimated perforated intervals of approximately 7,700 feet, each. Lonestar plans to initiate fracture stimulations on these wells in May 2018.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- CENTRAL REGION
Gonzales County – In April 2018, Lonestar commenced drilling the Cyclone #13H and Cyclone #14H with planned total measured depths of 20,150 feet and 19,650 feet, respectively. We project that these wells will have perforated intervals of approximately 11,000 feet. Completion of drilling operations is expected this week. Fracture stimulation operations are scheduled for June 2018. Lonestar owns a 100% WI and 78.5% NRI in these two wells.
Hawkeye – Lonestar owns an 87.5% WI in the Hawkeye #1H and Hawkeye #2H, which were placed onstream in January 2018. These wells have now been producing for in excess of three months and the results continue to be encouraging. After registering Max-30 IP's averaging 938 Boe/d, these wells continue to exhibit robust performance. During the first 90 days of production, the Hawkeye #1H has produced cumulative production of 65,600 barrels of oil, 37,250 Mcf, or 74,136 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis or 824 Boe/d over its first 90 days of production. Over the same period, the Hawkeye #2H has produced cumulative production of 57,020 barrels of oil, 30,655 Mcf, or 64,045 barrels of oil equivalent on a three-stream basis or 712 Boe/d over its first 90 days of production. Through 90 days of production, the Hawkeye wells are 28% better than the average Cyclone well and 19% better than our best Cyclone well, on a per-foot basis. To date, our initial Hawkeye wells are outperforming Third-Party projections by 16%.
Karnes County – In March 2018, the Company completed drilling operations on the Georg EF #18H, Georg EF #19H, and Georg EF #20H to an average total measured depth of approximately 15,450 feet. These wells have perforated intervals of approximately 6,300 feet with an average proppant concentration of 2,040 pounds per foot. Lonestar owns an 80% WI and 61% NRI in these wells. Fracture stimulation of these wells was completed with our dedicated frac spread in April, 2018 and flowback operations commenced on May 7, 2018. With 1% of their load recovered, the three wells are currently flowing on a 22/64" choke at an average of 1,121 barrels of oil per day and 639 Mcfpd, or 1,269 Boe/d on a three-stream basis.
Pirate – In Wilson County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Pirate leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- EASTERN REGION
Brazos & Robertson Counties – In Brazos County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended March 31, 2018. Generally speaking, this area is not an area where we have a clear line of site on meaningful acquisitions, and while our results here have augmented returns, we are reviewing our options on this asset with our partner. Lonestar does not currently have drilling activity budgeted here in 2018.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted Loss
Adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates as set forth in this release represents income or loss from operations before income taxes adjusted for certain non-cash items (detailed in the accompanying table) less income taxes. We believe adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates is calculated on the same basis as analysts' estimates and that many investors use this published research in making investment decisions and evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and gas producing companies. Diluted earnings per share (adjusted) as set forth in this release represents adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates on a diluted per share basis. A table is included which reconciles income or loss from operations to adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates and diluted earnings per share (adjusted).
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

FORT WORTH, Texas, April 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") today updated investors on its new completions at its Horned Frog property. In La Salle County, we previously reported the completion of the Horned Frog G #1H and H #1H. These wells were drilled to total measured depths of approximately 22,800 and 20,950 feet, respectively and were drilled from spud to total depth in an average of 12 days. These wells were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions with an average proppant concentration of 1,650 pounds per foot across an average of 40 stages per well utilizing diverters.
As it has successfully done at Wildcat, Lonestar plans to stringently choke manage these wells to optimize the total liquids recovery over the life of these wells. Lonestar has a 100% WI and 80% NRI in these wells. Additionally, Lonestar continues to expand its leasehold position via primary term leasing activity in the Horned Frog area at costs that are in-line with its historically low leasehold costs. Ongoing leasing efforts prevent the Company from disclosing commercial terms at this time, but we believe that our efforts to date will allow Lonestar to replace 200% of our estimated 2018 production. Lonestar has commenced drilling operations on the Horned Frog North West #2H and #3H, in which it holds a 100% WI.

Cautionary & Forward Looking Statements
Lonestar Resources US Inc. cautions that this press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to; Lonestar's execution of its growth strategies; growth in Lonestar's leasehold, reserves and asset value; and Lonestar's ability to create shareholder value. These statements involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; inability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required for exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; our limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from our proved reserves and the current market value of our estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; and the other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our on our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 29, 2018 our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, as well as other documents that we may file from time to time with the SEC. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. The forward-looking statements in this press release represent our views as of the date of this press release. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release.
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Estimates of reserves in this press release are based on economic assumptions with regard to commodity prices that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, reserve engineering is a complex and subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves in this press release were prepared by the Company's internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds and are subject to confirmation and revision from the Company's independent reserve engineering firm. The Company's internal estimates of reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the year-end estimates of the Company's reserves prepared by a third party as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in the Company's filings with the SEC, which you can obtain from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

FORT WORTH, Texas, March 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") today reported its financial and operating results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017.
RECENT HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "Over the past two years, we have dramatically strengthened our balance sheet and have made significant technical advancements to drilling, completing and producing our Eagle Ford Shale wells. As a result, 2018 will be a breakout year for Lonestar. Our 2018 full-year production guidance remains at 10,000 to 10,700 Boe/day, and represents approximately a 65% increase versus 2017. Our Adjusted EBITDAX guidance of $100 to $110 million represents similar growth versus 2017 results. The combination of significantly higher cash flows and our currently contemplated capital spending are expected to drive down our Debt to EBITDAX ratio to below 3.0x by year-end 2018. Our stronger financial position has allowed us to secure dedicated drilling and pressure pumping services, which in turn will greatly enhance our ability to control the quality and timing of our operations with a goal of delivering production more quickly. The impact of our progress is already evident, as our first four wells of 2018 are outperforming our expectations. Additionally, we have drilled our first three wells in Karnes County and have scheduled to begin fracture stimulation operations in early April. We are excited about the success and momentum we are created to date in 2018, with first quarter exit rates approaching 10,000 Boe/day, providing us increased confidence that we will fully deliver on our 2018 guidance. Most importantly, we are now well-positioned to consistently increase shareholder value in 2018 and in the years ahead."
OPERATIONAL UPDATE
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- WESTERN REGION
Asherton – In central Dimmit County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Asherton 9HS, the Company's longest flowing well, which had been flowing unassisted since March, 2014, was put on gas lift after it was hit by an offset frac. Production rates have since recovered, and the production rates from all four producing wells continued to outperform the third-party engineering projections. Asherton leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Beall Ranch – In Dimmit County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Beall Ranch leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2018.
Burns Ranch Area – On November 23, 2017, Lonestar commenced flowback operations of the Burns Ranch Eagle Ford #B 1H and B #2H wells with lateral lengths of approximately 9,470 and 9,450 feet, respectively. These wells were drilled to an average measured depth of 17,950 feet and were drilled from spud to total depth in an average of 19.5 days. Lonestar has a 92.4% WI and 69.3% NRI in these wells. These wells are tracking our type curves. With the additions of these wells, Lonestar has increased its acreage that is Held By Production from approximately 2,770 gross / 2,673 net acres to approximately 4,632 gross / 3,817 net acres, which means Burns Ranch is now 100% HBP'd.
Horned Frog – In La Salle County, we recently completed the Horned Frog G #1H and H #1H. These wells were drilled to total measured depths of approximately 22,800 and 20,950 feet, respectively and were drilled from spud to total depth in an average of 12 days. These wells were fracture-stimulated in engineered completions with an average proppant concentration of 1,650 pounds per foot across an average of 40 stages per well utilizing diverters. Flowback operations commenced on March 20th and productivity is promising. With only 6 days since first production and 2% of load recovered, the Horned Frog G#1H, which has a perforated interval of 12,280 feet, is testing at three-stream rates of 1,944 Boe/d, consisting of 442 Bbls/d of oil, 518 Bbls/d of natural gas liquids and 5,900 Mcf/d on a 28/64'' choke. With only 2% of load recovered, the Horned Frog H #1H has been in flowback for 8 days. The H #1H has a perforated interval of 10,445 feet, and is testing at three-stream rates 1,938 Boe/d, consisting of 426 Bbls/d of oil, 522 Bbls/d of natural gas liquids and 5,943 Mcf/d, on a 26/64'' choke. As it has successfully done at Wildcat, Lonestar plans to stringently choke manage these wells to optimize the total liquids recovery over the life of these wells. Lonestar has a 100% WI and 80% NRI in these wells. Additionally, Lonestar continues to expand its leasehold position via primary term leasing activity in the Horned Frog area at costs that are in-line with its historically low leasehold costs. Ongoing leasing efforts prevent the Company from disclosing commercial terms at this time, but we believe that our efforts to date will allow Lonestar to replace 200% of our estimated 2018 production. Lonestar has commenced drilling operations on the Horned Frog North West #2H and #3H, in which it holds a 100% WI.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- CENTRAL REGION
Cyclone – 2017 was a significant year for Lonestar in Southern Gonzales County, Texas. The Company increased its acreage from 3,488 gross / 2,798 net acres to 10,663 gross / 5,299 net acres, its total drilling locations from 26 to 46, and its average lateral length of its drilling locations from 7,800 to 8,100 year over year. In addition, with the drilling and completion of the Cyclone #4H, Cyclone #5H, Cyclone #26H, and Cyclone #27H, the Company increased its acreage which is Held By Production to approximately 86%. Our operations team was also able to make significant strides by further optimizing our fracture-stimulated engineered completions that utilize diverters and better refining our geo-targeting with each additional well we drill. Our first two wells, the Cyclone #9H and Cyclone #10H, drilled and completed in 2016, averaged 90-day initial production rates of 368 Bbls and 187 Mcf, or 411 Boe/d (three-stream). Our second set of wells, the Cyclone #4H and Cyclone #5H, drilled and completed in July 2017, averaged 90-day initial production rates of 469 Bbls and 281 Mcf, or 555 Boe/d (three-stream), an increase of 35% over the Cyclone #9H and Cyclone #10H. Our most recent set of wells, the Cyclone #26H and Cyclone #27H, drilled and completed in September 2017, averaged 90-day initial production rates of 499 Bbls and 250 Mcf, or 576 Boe/d (three-stream), a 40% increase over the #9H and #10H. With these successes, the Company is planning to continue to develop this acreage in 2018 by drilling an additional 4 gross / 4.0 net wells in the Cyclone/Hawkeye area over the remainder of the year.
Hawkeye – The Hawkeye property was acquired by Lonestar in the fourth quarter of 2017 for $3.4 million and consists of 6,257 gross / 1,655 net acres in Gonzales County, Texas. The Hawkeye leasehold contains 15 additional Eagle Ford Shale locations, most of which range in lateral length from 8,000 to 11,000 feet. Under Lonestar's operatorship, production from the existing producing wells has increased from 49 Boe per day to 219 Boe per day. In January 2018, Lonestar completed its first two wells on the Hawkeye property.
Karnes County – In February 2018, the Company drilled the Georg EF #18H, Georg EF #19H, and Georg EF #20H to total measured depths of approximately 15,450 feet. We project that these wells will have perforated intervals of approximately 6,300 feet. Lonestar owns an 80% WI and 61% NRI in these wells. Fracture stimulation of these wells is scheduled for early April with our dedicated frac spread with flowback operations expected to begin in May. These wells mark the first three development wells on properties we acquired in Karnes County in June, 2017, and are the first of 9 wells we plan to be drill and complete on the properties this year.
Pirate – In Wilson County, no new wells were completed during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Pirate leasehold is held by production, and Lonestar does not currently plan any drilling activity here in 2017.
EAGLE FORD SHALE TREND- EASTERN REGION
Brazos & Robertson Counties – Lonestar owns a 50% WI/ 39% NRI in the Wildcat B#1H, which was placed onstream in May 2017. The Wildcat B#1H has now been producing for 10 months and the Company continues to be encouraged by the productivity of the well, with cumulative production having eclipsed 320,000 barrels of oil equivalent, which is 66% greater than the average cumulative production from the 20 offset wells drilled by another operator and 21% higher than the most prolific producing offset well. The results of the Wildcat B#1H are encouraging, as Lonestar has a sizable leasehold position in the Wildcat Area in the deep Eagle Ford section in Brazos County, and notably, has not yet booked any proved reserves to the area. Lonestar has 9,555 gross / 6,420 net acres in the Wildcat area, which holds 38 extended-reach drilling locations, based on 800-foot spacing.

Cautionary & Forward Looking Statements
Lonestar Resources US Inc. cautions that this press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to; Lonestar's execution of its growth strategies; growth in Lonestar's leasehold, reserves and asset value; and Lonestar's ability to create shareholder value. These statements involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; inability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required for exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; our limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from our proved reserves and the current market value of our estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; and the other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our on our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 23, 2017 our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, as well as other documents that we may file from time to time with the SEC. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. The forward-looking statements in this press release represent our views as of the date of this press release. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release.
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Estimates of reserves in this press release are based on economic assumptions with regard to commodity prices that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, reserve engineering is a complex and subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves in this press release were prepared by the Company's internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds and are subject to confirmation and revision from the Company's independent reserve engineering firm. The Company's internal estimates of reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the year-end estimates of the Company's reserves prepared by a third party as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in the Company's filings with the SEC, which you can obtain from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
RESERVES DISCLOSURES
Based on rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, for the year ended December 31, 2017, Lonestar's proved reserves were estimated using the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the spot price on the first day of each month preceding the 12 months prior to the end of the reporting period. This methodology resulted in an average oil price of $51.34 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.96 per million British Thermal Units ("MMBTU"), an increase of 20% for both crude oil and natural gas, as compared to an average of oil price of $42.75 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.46 per MMBTU used to estimate Lonestar's proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2016.
The average future prices for benchmark commodities used in determining our Strip Pricing for the year ended December 31, 2017 reserves were $59.55 for oil for 2018, $56.22 for 2019, $53.79 for 2020, $52.29 for 2021, $51.70 for 2022, $51.59 for 2023, $51.76 for 2024, $52.07 for 2025, $52.47 for 2026, and escalated 3% thereafter and $2.87/MMBtu for natural gas for 2018, $2.81 for 2019, $2.82 for 2020, $2.85 for 2021, $2.89 for 2022, $2.93 for 2023, $2.97 for 2024, $3.01 for 2025, $3.07 for 2026, and escalated 3% thereafter.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted Income
Adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates as set forth in this release represents income or loss from operations before income taxes adjusted for certain non-cash items (detailed in the accompanying table) less income taxes. We believe adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates is calculated on the same basis as analysts' estimates and that many investors use this published research in making investment decisions and evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and gas producing companies. Diluted earnings per share (adjusted) as set forth in this release represents adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates on a diluted per share basis. A table is included which reconciles income or loss from operations to adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates and diluted earnings per share (adjusted).
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

PV-10
Certain of our oil and natural gas reserve disclosures included in this release are presented on a PV-10 basis. PV-10 is the estimated present value of the future cash flows, less future development and production costs from our proved reserves before income taxes, discounted using a 10% discount rate. PV-10 is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because it does not include the effects of future income taxes, as is required in computing the Standardized Measure. We believe that the presentation of a pre-tax PV-10 value provides relevant and useful information because it is widely used by investors and analysts as a basis for comparing the relative size and value of our proved reserves to other oil and gas companies. Because many factors that are unique to each individual company may impact the amount and timing of future income taxes, the use of a pre-tax PV-10 value provides greater comparability when evaluating oil and gas companies. The PV-10 value is not a measure of financial or operating performance under U.S. GAAP, nor is it intended to represent the current market value of proved oil and gas reserves. The definition of PV-10 value, as defined above, may differ significantly from the definitions used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, the PV-10 value, as defined, may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) announced initial production results from the first Eagle Ford Shale wells on its Hawkeye property in Gonzales County, Texas. The Hawkeye property consists of 6,257 gross / 1,655 net acres. Hawkeye was acquired by Lonestar in the fourth quarter of 2017 for $3.4 million. Under Lonestar's operatorship, production from the existing producing wells has increased from 49 BOE per day to 219 BOE per day. Lonestar has now completed its first two wells on the Hawkeye property, the initial results of which are detailed below. The Hawkeye leasehold contains 15 additional Eagle Ford Shale locations, most of which range in lateral length from 8,000 to 11,000 feet.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "The early results of our first two wells on our recently acquired Hawkeye property are extremely encouraging. The rates achieved thus far are 52% better than our six-well average at Cyclone on an absolute basis and 31% better than the best well at Cyclone. Moreover, measured by rates per 1,000 feet of lateral, the rates achieved at Hawkeye are on average, 26% better than the six-well average at Cyclone and 14% better than our best well at Cyclone. Importantly, initial production rates on our new Hawkeye wells are considerably outperforming the projections of our recently-issued third party reserve report."
Bracken added, "Our diligent work over the past two years has set up 2018 as a breakout year for Lonestar. We have provided full-year guidance of 10,000 to 10,700 BOE per day, which equates to approximately 65% growth over 2017 results. The production results from our extended-reach Hawkeye wells represent an excellent start to our 2018 program. Our completions calendar is on schedule-- we are now fracture stimulating our 10,000-foot and 12,000-foot laterals at Horned Frog and expect turn these wells to sales before the end of the first quarter. Getting off to an exceptional start to the year gives us increased confidence that we will deliver on our 2018 plan, resulting in a material increase in shareholder value."

FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) announced that its proved reserves at December 31, 2017 increased 82% to 73.6 million barrels of oil equivalent ("MMBOE") calculated using SEC guidelines. All of the Company's proved reserves are located in the Eagle Ford Shale.
Lonestar's proved reserves at December 31, 2017 are comprised of 50.7 million barrels of crude oil and condensate, 10.9 million barrels of natural gas liquids, and 71.9 billion cubic feet of natural gas. By energy content, Lonestar's proved reserves are weighted 84% to crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids. See Table 1 for details.
2017 Highlights Include:
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III commented, "2017 was a year of tremendous growth for Lonestar from both our drilling program and from acquisitions. We continued our track-record of low-cost reserve growth, registering exceptional all-sources finding and development costs of $6.07 per BOE while boosting our Proved reserves by 82%, which brings considerable scale to the Company. This reserve growth, which was prudently financed, positions Lonestar to significantly increase shareholder value in 2018 and beyond."
The table below summarizes Lonestar's year-end proved reserves and PV-10 by region as determined by the Company's independent petroleum engineers, W.D. Von Gonten & Co. Petroleum Engineers. Based on rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, for the year ended December 31, 2017, Lonestar's proved reserves were estimated using the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the spot price on the first day of each month preceding the 12 months prior to the end of the reporting period. This methodology resulted in an average oil price of $51.34 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.96 per million British Thermal Units ("MMBTU"), an increase of 20% for both crude oil and natural gas, as compared to an average of oil price of $42.75 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.46 per MMBTU used to estimate Lonestar's proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Because the pricing utilized in the SEC methodology is significantly lower than current market prices for crude oil, NGL's and natural gas, Lonestar has also presented its Proved reserves PV-10 at NYMEX strip prices, as of December 31, 2017 (as described below, "Strip Pricing"). On this basis, the Company's proved reserves were 76.2 MMBOE and PV-10 was $647.6 million. See Table 4 for details.

The net proceeds of the Notes offering will be used to fully retire Lonestar's existing 8 ¾% Senior Unsecured Notes due April, 2019, which bear principal, interest and prepayment premium of approximately $162 million. The remaining net proceeds of the Notes offering will be used to reduce borrowings under the Company's Senior Secured Credit Facility (the "Facility").
Lonestar also announced today that it, with its lenders, have amended the Facility to maintain the existing borrowing base at $160 million. In addition, by operation of the transactions described above and the existing terms of the Facility, the maturity date of the Facility has been extended from October, 2018 to July, 2020. Lonestar will have approximately $60 million outstanding on the Facility, proforma December 31, 2017. As a result, Lonestar has approximately $100 million of liquidity under the Facility.
Frank D. Bracken, III, Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer commented, "Closing our Notes offering and amending our Senior Secured Credit Facility (collectively, "the Transactions") represent the culmination of our efforts to financially reposition Lonestar. First, the Transactions meaningfully extend the profile of both our secured and unsecured debt maturities. Second, the Transactions greatly expand our liquidity to approximately $100 million. Looking to 2018, we are now fully focused on executing our plan to increasing annual average production to 10,000-10,700 BOE per day and increasing EBITDAX by approximately 60% to $100-$110 million. This growth is expected to reduce our Net Debt / EBITDAX ratio to below 3.0x by year-end 2018. Most importantly, Lonestar is now positioned to increase shareholder value by driving up production, reserves and cash flow on a per-share basis."

THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "The third quarter results represent a significant step forward for Lonestar. Our 3Q17 results are the first results that fully reflect the positive impact of our Acquisitions, which have brought significant scale to our business, as reflected in our dramatically improved cash margins. Moreover, I applaud our operations team, who have quickly and proactively assumed control of operations, and associated lease operating expenses. Our ability to reduce costs has added significant value to the Acquisitions."
Bracken further commented, "On an annualized basis, our Adjusted EBITDAX increased sequentially from $50.8 million in 2Q17 to $81.2 million in 3Q17, driven by significant growth in production, most particularly oil production while keeping our cash expenses in check. The growth in our third quarter results will serve as a platform for continued in 2018. We forecast that 2018 production will range between 10,000 to 10,700 Boe/d and we currently anticipate that Adjusted EBITDAX will total between $100 and $110 million. Importantly, we expect to achieve this significant growth in production and EBITDAX while also significantly enhancing our credit metrics. We currently anticipate that Debt / EBITDAX will improve to between 2.7x and 2.9x by year-end 2018."

The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Estimates of reserves in this press release are based on economic assumptions with regard to commodity prices that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, reserve engineering is a complex and subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves in this press release were prepared by the Company's internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds and are subject to confirmation and revision from the Company's independent reserve engineering firm. The Company's internal estimates of reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the year-end estimates of the Company's reserves prepared by a third party as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in the Company's filings with the SEC, which you can obtain from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") has provided an operations update following Hurricane Harvey.
As the storm approached, Lonestar received notice from its crude oil purchasers regarding suspended operations on August 24, 2017, and evacuated their field personnel from the Eagle Ford Shale producing region, and terminals which receive the bulk of Lonestar's crude oil via truck were shut-in. Additionally, refineries in Houston, Texas and Corpus Christi were shut down, and the Ports of Houston and Corpus Christi have been closed.
Lonestar elected to continue producing the vast majority of its Eagle Ford Shale wells, and has been largely successful in maintaining production wherever adequate crude oil tankage is available. Lonestar has experienced reduced gas sales at Horned Frog due to an outage at its amine plant, shut-in certain of its wells in Gonzales County due to lack of availability of trucking capacity, and certain of its producing wells at Marquis have been shut-in due to power outages. Generally, we expect these outages to be short in duration. However, the bulk of the Company's operated wells continue to produce, and in Dimmit and LaSalle Counties, trucking operations have already resumed and crude oil sales have recommenced this morning. Additionally, Lonestar ceased drilling operations at Burns Ranch, and delayed frac operations at Cyclone as a result of evacuations by its service providers. Lonestar currently anticipates resumption of drilling and completion operations later in the week.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "Most importantly, our employees and their families are safe. Additionally, our operations team here in Fort Worth coordinated with our field personnel to come up with resourceful solutions to keep most of our wells producing through the storm and its aftermath. We are grateful to the tireless work of our operations group to maintain high levels of uptime while preserving safety in the work environment. Lastly, our hearts go out to our friends in the Houston area, who are bearing a heavy burden in the wake of this storm, and we wish them the best in their efforts to recover and rebuild."
Cautionary & Forward Looking Statements
Lonestar Resources US Inc. cautions that this press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements about the new chairman's expertise, ability and anticipated contributions to Lonestar; Lonestar's execution of its growth strategies; growth in Lonestar's leasehold, reserves and asset value; and Lonestar's ability to create shareholder value. These statements involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; inability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required for exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; our limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from our proved reserves and the current market value of our estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; and the other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on June 9, 2016, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, as well as other documents that we may file from time to time with the SEC. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. The forward-looking statements in this presentation represent our views as of the date of this presentation. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation.
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Estimates of reserves in this press release are based on economic assumptions with regard to commodity prices that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, reserve engineering is a complex and subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves in this press release were prepared by the Company's internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds and are subject to confirmation and revision from the Company's independent reserve engineering firm. The Company's internal estimates of reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the year-end estimates of the Company's reserves prepared by a third party as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in the Company's filings with the SEC, which you can obtain from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") reported today its financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2017.
SECOND QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "The second quarter is a springboard for Lonestar. While the 2Q17 results minimally reflect the positive impact of our Eagle Ford Shale acquisitions, 3Q17 results will fully reflect their impact, as well as newly-completed wells. Moreover, as we assimilate our new acquisitions, we are increasingly confident in our ability to enhance the value of these assets by better managing the current producing assets and by applying Lonestar's technical abilities to drilling new wells on the properties. We are also encouraged by the apparent coming slowdown in drilling and completion activity disclosed by a number of industry participants which should result in more pliable energy service costs and better availability at a time when Lonestar expects to scale-up our drilling and completion program. In summary, we accomplished much in the first half of 2017, as we significantly grew Lonestar through acquisitions, had exceptional drilling results, and greatly strengthened our financial position and locked-in cash flow and returns by hedging. As a result, we are well-positioned to build shareholder value into the second half of 2017 and beyond."

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

FORT WORTH, Texas, July 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") announced today the addition of new crude oil hedges.
Lonestar has added to its hedge position for 2018, as well as initiating positions for 2019 and 2020. Giving effect for these new hedges, Lonestar's crude oil positions stand as follows:
Lonestar has meaningful price protection for the remainder of 2017, with daily crude oil hedge volumes of 2,947 barrels hedged at an average price of $53.84 per barrel, equating to 50% to 55% of our expected crude oil production during the period. Additionally, for calendar 2018, Lonestar has daily crude oil hedge volumes of 3,300 barrels at an average price of $52.26 per barrel, equating to 50% to 55% of our expected crude oil production during the period
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "Our recent transactions in the futures market are a continuation of Lonestar's strategy of maintaining significant levels of price protection for crude oil, the Company's principal product. After closing our recent acquisitions in the Eagle Ford Shale play, we boosted our hedge positions to account for the 40% increase in our current production rates." Bracken added, "Lonestar's long-standing policy of opportunistic hedging has served the Company well. Our current hedge book provides insulation to the current softness in the crude oil markets and delivers higher certainty to our cash flows and our ability to internally fund our Eagle Ford growth program."
Cautionary & Forward Looking Statements
Lonestar Resources US Inc. cautions that this press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements about the new chairman's expertise, ability and anticipated contributions to Lonestar; Lonestar's execution of its growth strategies; growth in Lonestar's leasehold, reserves and asset value; and Lonestar's ability to create shareholder value. These statements involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; inability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required for exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; our limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from our proved reserves and the current market value of our estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; and the other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on June 9, 2016, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, as well as other documents that we may file from time to time with the SEC. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. The forward-looking statements in this presentation represent our views as of the date of this presentation. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation.
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Estimates of reserves in this press release are based on economic assumptions with regard to commodity prices that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, reserve engineering is a complex and subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves in this press release were prepared by the Company's internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds and are subject to confirmation and revision from the Company's independent reserve engineering firm. The Company's internal estimates of reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the year-end estimates of the Company's reserves prepared by a third party as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in the Company's filings with the SEC, which you can obtain from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

FORT WORTH, Texas, June 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") provided an update on its Wildcat B #1H well located in Brazos County, Texas. The well was drilled and completed to a total measured depth of 19,800 feet (approximately 11,000 feet true vertical depth). Lonestar owns a 50% working interest in the Wildcat B #1H well. The well was fracture stimulated with a total of 16.6 million pounds of proppant over a perforated interval of 8,166 feet (2,028 pounds per foot) in 41 stages. Previously, Lonestar announced initial test rates of 1,475 BOE per day. The Wildcat B1H has now been on production for 40 days.
Today, the Company announced that the Wildcat B1H well has established a 30-day production rate of 2,123 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boe/d), consisting of 890 barrels of oil per day (42%), 764 barrels of natural gas liquids (36%) and 2,815 Mcf per day of natural gas (22%). These rates were achieved on a 20/64-inch choke. Lonestar has leases covering 9,555 gross / 6,420 net acres in the Wildcat area, which holds 46 drilling locations, based on 800-foot spacing. At year-end 2016, Lonestar had not recorded any proved reserves to this area.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "The early results of our first well in the Brazos Deep portion of the Eagle Ford Shale play are extremely encouraging. The rates achieved thus far are considerably higher than the average for the area. I believe this a testament to the quality of our technical team. We are currently interpreting our 3-D seismic over our leasehold.

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") announced that it has entered into definitive agreements with unaffiliated parties to acquire oil and gas properties in the Eagle Ford Shale play for a total purchase price of approximately $116.6 million, consisting of $105 million in cash and 2.6 million Lonestar Class A common shares. The properties, which are located in Karnes, Gonzales, DeWitt, Lavaca and Fayette Counties, Texas, have Proved reserves of approximately 25.4 million barrels of crude oil, 3.1 million barrels of natural gas liquids, and 17.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas, equating to 31.4 million barrels of oil equivalent ("MMBOE"), as estimated by Lonestar, as of December 31, 2016. Based on the NYMEX Strip at December 31, 2016, these Proved reserves have PV-101 of $260 million. Lonestar currently expects to close the acquisitions in late June. Lonestar has also entered into definitive agreements that fully fund the purchase of the properties.
Upon closing of the purchases, Lonestar will acquire 115 gross / 80.3 net producing oil and gas wells, and estimates Proved Developed Producing reserves associated with these wells of 6.3 MMBOE. Lonestar will own an average 70% working interest in the producing wells, and operates 81 of them with a 93% working interest. Based on information provided by the sellers, the Company estimates that the production for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 2,052 BOE per day (89% of which is crude oil and NGL's).
The leasehold to be acquired totals 30,219 gross / 21,238 net acres, of which 94% is Held By Production. Upon closing of the acquisitions, Lonestar will own an average 70% working interest in this leasehold. Lonestar has identified 85 gross / 73 net Proved Undeveloped drilling locations in the Lower Eagle Ford Shale which Lonestar internally estimates contain Proved Undeveloped reserves of 25.1 MMBOE. The Company has identified an additional 34 gross / 24 net drilling locations in the Lower Eagle Ford Shale to which Proved reserves have not been assigned.
We believe the acquisition of these properties meaningfully increases Lonestar's scale and value. The transactions have the following impact on Lonestar, on a Proforma basis, based on internal estimates, assuming that the transactions had closed as of December 31, 2016:
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, commented, "The acquisitions announced today are transformational for Lonestar. We have scaled our business with Eagle Ford Shale properties that are located in our core area which our technical team understands extremely well. Despite increasing our asset base by over fifty percent on most metrics, we expect to add little to no overhead to integrate these assets. Importantly, we have fully financed the acquisitions in a manner that significantly reduces the Company's leverage metrics. We estimate that on a proforma basis, Lonestar's Debt/EBITDAX ratio will be reduced from 3.9x to 3.2x, for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We plan to increase our Eagle Ford Shale drilling rig activity from 1 rig to 2 rigs no later than January 1, 2018, which will allow us to scale our drilling program and obtain a dedicated frac spread, which we believe will afford us greater economies of scale, cost savings, and better precision and timing of execution. In summary, we are acquiring high quality Eagle Ford properties located in our core area that significantly increase the size and scale of our Company. Importantly, we have arranged to finance the acquisitions in a way that significantly reduces our leverage, increases our liquidity and affords us the ability to drive up production and reserves for the benefit of our shareholders."
After consummating these acquisitions, Lonestar reaffirms its spending plan of $62 to $72 million on drilling and completion operations in 2017. Importantly, the acquisitions also provide Lonestar with the visibility to set an initial drilling plan for 2018 of 18 gross / 16 net wells, with an estimated cost of $85 to $95 million. The 2017 capital budget will be funded by cash flow and proceeds from the financing. Looking to 2018, based on current strip prices and budgets currently in place, we expect our projected capital budget will be fully funded by internally generated cash flow.
Lonestar's financing for the acquisitions is fully committed with the private placement of Convertible Preferred Stock and borrowings from its Senior Secured Credit Facility. In conjunction with the financing of the acquisitions, Lonestar plans to retire the remaining $17.0 million of its Second Lien Notes. The details of each are as follows:
Convertible Preferred Stock- Pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement, Lonestar has agreed to issue at par value of $80 million of its newly created Series A-1 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock the "Series A-1 Stock") and Series A-2 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock (the "Series A-2 Stock") to Chambers Energy Capital. The Series A-1 Stock is immediately convertible into shares of Common Stock. Upon approval of the Company's stockholders ("Stockholder Approval") shares of the Series A-2 stock will automatically convert into Series A-1 Stock. The Preferred Stock has the following features:
The securities purchase agreement is expected to close simultaneously with the acquisition transactions. However, the closing is subject to various conditions, and there is no guarantee that closing will occur in the timeframe Lonestar expects.
Senior Secured Credit Facility. Lonestar currently has a senior secured credit facility with seven banks (as amended prior to the date hereof, the "Senior Secured Facility"). The current borrowing base is $112 million. The Company has received commitments from certain of its banks to amend the Senior Secured Facility upon completion of the acquisitions, to among other things, increase the borrowing base to $160 million. Citibank NA and ABN Amro Bank N.V. have fully underwritten the amended $160 million borrowing base. At closing of the acquisitions in June, the Company anticipates having approximately $105 million drawn on the Senior Secured Facility. This outstanding amount also assumes the full repayment of the Company's remaining $17.0 million 12% Second Lien Notes. The Senior Secured Facility will contain an amended leverage covenant that offers the Company substantial flexibility. As so amended, the ratio of Total Debt to EBITDAX (as in each case as defined in the Senior Secured Facility) may not exceed 4.0 to 1.0 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2017. However, the Senior Secured Facility will be amended to provide that EBITDAX shall be calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter using the results of the twelve-month period ending with that fiscal quarter end; provided, that EBITDAX shall be calculated (i) at the end of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2017 using an amount equal to the EBITDAX for such fiscal quarter, multiplied by four, (ii) at the end of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 using an amount equal to the EBITDAX for the two fiscal quarter period ended on such date, multiplied by two, (iii) at the end of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2018 using an amount equal to the EBITDAX for the three fiscal quarter period ended on such date, multiplied by four-thirds.

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") reported today its financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "2017 is off to a strong start, as Lonestar has resumed production growth in the Eagle Ford Shale play with a 15% increase in production over 4Q16 results. Not only is production back in a growth mode, but Lonestar is exerting stringent cost control that is resulting in sharp reductions in cash costs, particularly on a unit-of-production basis, which is resulting in expanding margins." Bracken added, "Our well results, discussed in this release, are validation of our highly technical approach to the Eagle Ford. I believe that we are on-track to accelerate production growth in the second half of the year, which should achieve improved liquidity and an expanded borrowing base heading into 2018."

All statements contained in this press release that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, beliefs and expectations with respect to: discovery and development of crude oil, NGLs and natural gas reserves; drilling and completion of wells and the size of Lonestar's leasehold; cash flows and liquidity, including statements regarding the expected benefits of the Company's crude oil hedging; availability and terms of capital; timing, amount and rate of future production of crude oil, NGLs and natural gas; Lonestar's business strategy, including its partnership with Schlumberger and the GECA; and the expected benefits from the GECA.
These forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; ability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations, which could increase costs and materially alter the occurrence or timing of their drilling; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization, which could materially adversely affect Lonestar's crude oil, natural gas and NGLs reserves and future production; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; Lonestar's limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; customer concentration risk; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from Lonestar's proved reserves and the current market value of Lonestar's estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; covenant restrictions related to the revolving credit facility and the indenture that governs 8.75% Senior Notes due 2019; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing, which has recently come under increased scrutiny; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; recent federal legislation that may have adverse impact on ability to use derivative instruments to reduce the effects of commodity prices, interest rates and other risks associated with the business; and risks in connection with acquisitions and integration. These and other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on June 9, 2016, along with our other reports filed with the SEC could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this press release.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

FORT WORTH, Texas, March 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (including its subsidiaries, "Lonestar," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") reported today its financial and operating results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2016.
2016 HIGHLIGHTS
2017 HIGHLIGHTS
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III, stated, "2016 was a transformational year for Lonestar. We moved the Company's listing to the NASDAQ exchange. We sold our non-core Conventional assets. We completed our first U.S. stock offering that provided equity capital to restart our Eagle Ford Shale development program. Most importantly, we reduced long-term debt outstanding by $115.2 million in the last six months of the year, representing a 34% reduction. We anticipate increasing production sequentially in each quarter of 2017 by drilling extended reach laterals on our existing leasehold. Already in 2017, we have entered into a series of transactions that increase our reserves and drilling inventory and provide additional growth opportunities. With this excellent start to the year, we believe Lonestar is well-positioned to generate significant growth in shareholder value in 2017 and beyond."

These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; ability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations, which could increase costs and materially alter the occurrence or timing of their drilling; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization, which could materially adversely affect Lonestar's crude oil, natural gas and NGLs reserves and future production; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; Lonestar's limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; customer concentration risk; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from Lonestar's proved reserves and the current market value of Lonestar's estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; covenant restrictions related to the revolving credit facility and the indenture that governs 8.75% Senior Notes due 2019; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing, which has recently come under increased scrutiny; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; recent federal legislation that may have adverse impact on ability to use derivative instruments to reduce the effects of commodity prices, interest rates and other risks associated with the business; and risks in connection with acquisitions and integration. These and other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on June 9, 2016, along with our other reports filed with the SEC could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this press release. Any such forward-looking statements represent management's estimates as of the date of this press release. While we may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

SOURCE Lonestar Resources US, Inc.
FORT WORTH, Texas, March 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") announced that its proved reserves at December 31, 2016 increased to 40.5 million barrels of oil equivalent ("MMBOE") calculated using SEC guidelines. The Company sold its conventional assets during 2016, which comprised 2.2 MMBOE at December 31, 2015. Lonestar's proved reserves associated with its Eagle Ford Shale assets increased from 38.0 MMBOE to 40.5 MMBOE. See Table 1 for details.
Lonestar's proved reserves at December 31, 2016 are comprised of 24.3 million barrels of crude oil and condensate, 7.5 million barrels of natural gas liquids, and 52.7 billion cubic feet of natural gas. By energy content, Lonestar's proved reserves are weighted 78% to crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids.
2016 Highlights Include:
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D. Bracken, III commented, "In a year in which Lonestar was highly focused on strengthening its balance sheet, Lonestar registered solid reserve replacement at highly attractive finding and development costs. With substantial balance sheet improvement achieved, Lonestar is well positioned to achieve growth in reserves and production both through the drillbit and acquisitions."
The table below summarizes Lonestar's year-end proved reserves and PV-10 by region as determined by the Company's independent petroleum engineers, W.D. Von Gonten & Co. Petroleum Engineers. Based on rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, for the year ended December 31, 2016, Lonestar's proved reserves were estimated using the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the spot price on the first day of each month preceding the 12 months prior to the end of the reporting period. This methodology resulted in an average oil price of $42.75 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.46 per million British Thermal Units ("MMBTU"), a decrease of 15% and 5%, respectively, as compared to an average of oil price of $50.28 per barrel and an average natural gas price of $2.59 per MMBTU used to estimate Lonestar's proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Because the pricing utilized in the SEC methodology is significantly lower than current market prices for crude oil, NGL's and natural gas, Lonestar has also presented its Proved reserves PV-10 at NYMEX strip prices, as of December 31, 2016 (as described below, "Strip Pricing"). On this basis, the Company's proved reserves were 44.9 MMBOE and PV-10 was $382.0 million. See Table 3 for details.

SOURCE Lonestar Resources US, Inc.
FORT WORTH, Texas, Jan. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") announced today the initial production test results on its Burns Ranch wells and the addition of new crude oil hedges.
Lonestar recently commenced flowback operations on its Burns Ranch #8H, #9H and #10H wells. While an average of 5% of the frac load has been recovered from each of these wells thus far, preliminary production data from these wells is encouraging. In its recently-completed wells ("Gen 5"), Lonestar utilized longer lateral lengths, engineered completions using diverters, and in two of the wells, higher proppant concentrations than its first set of wells drilled at Burns Ranch in 2015 ("Gen 3"). The Company has registered 24-hour test rates of 723 barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOE per day) on the #8H well, which has a perforated lateral length of 9,518 feet and was fracture stimulated with a proppant concentration of 1,487 pounds per foot. The #9H well, which has a perforated lateral length of 9,449 feet and was fracture stimulated with a proppant concentration of 2,005 pounds per foot, registered a 24-hour test rate of 831 BOE per day. 24-hour test rates on the #10H well were 789 BOE per day, which has a perforated lateral length of 8,456 feet and was fracture stimulated with a proppant concentration of 2,025 pounds per foot. It should be noted that oil cuts currently average 35% among the three wells, and the wells are being choke-managed to restrict gas-oil ratios.
While the production results are preliminary, Lonestar is encouraged by the fact that the oil produced thus far on its three new Gen 5 wells exceeds the oil produced of its offsetting Gen 3 wells by 25%, on average, despite being currently produced on a smaller choke. Further, oil produced per lateral foot thus far on its Gen 5 wells exceeds the oil produced per lateral foot of its offsetting Gen 3 wells by 12%, on average.
Since December 31, 2016, Lonestar has added to its hedge positions for both 2017 and 2018. For calendar 2017, the Company added 377 barrels per day of crude oil swaps at an average price of $56.00 per barrel. For calendar 2018, the Company added 1,000 barrels per day of crude oil swaps at an average price of $55.60 per barrel. The Company also entered into a costless collar for 500 barrels per day at a floor of $50.00 per barrel and a ceiling of $59.45 per barrel. Table 1 below provides a detailed schedule of Lonestar's hedge positions, which total 2,877 barrels per day in 2017 and 2,500 barrels per day in 2018. Lonestar's current natural gas hedge positions are comprised of a swap for 7,000 MMBTU per day at a price of $3.36 for 2017.

(NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") is pleased to announce continued, significant reductions its long-term debt. At December 31, 2016, Lonestar's long-term debt stood at $212.3 million, a reduction of $107.2 million as compared to $319.5 million at June 30, 2016 and a $74.1 million reduction as compared to $286.4 million at September 30, 2016. At December 31, 2016, Lonestar's long-term debt was comprised of $43.5 million under the revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") of Lonestar Resources Americas, Inc., Lonestar's wholly owned subsidiary ("LRAI"), $17.0 million of LRAI's 12% second lien senior notes (the "Second Lien Senior Notes"), and $151.8 million of LRAI's 8 ¾% senior notes (the "8 ¾ Unsecured Notes").
On December 30, 2016, Lonestar applied a portion of the proceeds of its recent $79.4 million equity offering to repurchase $21.0 million of its 12% second lien senior notes at a price of 101% of par, while also repaying $49.0 million of its Revolving Credit Facility, and retiring the $2.1 million Seaport Repurchase Facility.
Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, Frank D.

The significant improvement in the balance sheet repositions the Company to accelerate the development of its inventory of extended reach laterals in the Eagle Ford Shale to deliver strong production growth while also positioning Lonestar to pursue additional asset opportunities."

FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") announced that effective November 23, 2016, the Company received notification that the borrowing base under its Revolving Credit Facility was reduced from $120.0 million to $112.0 million. This reduction gives effect to Lonestar's recent sale of our non-core Conventional Assets, which generated $15.8 million of proceeds. The Company views this redetermination as favorable, considering that at its last redetermination, the Conventional Assets contributed an estimated $11 million to the borrowing base. At September 30, 2016, and prior to the sale of the Conventional Assets, Lonestar had $94.5 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility.
Additionally, its redeterminations are now scheduled semi-annually to occur on May 1 and November 1 of each year. The Company's next borrowing base redetermination is scheduled for May 1, 2017.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this press release that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, beliefs and expectations with respect to: discovery and development of crude oil, NGLs and natural gas reserves; drilling and completion of wells and the size of Lonestar's leasehold; cash flows and liquidity, including statements regarding the expected benefits of the Company's crude oil hedging; availability and terms of capital; timing, amount and rate of future production of crude oil, NGLs and natural gas; Lonestar's business strategy, including its partnership with Schlumberger and the GECA; and the expected benefits from the GECA.
These forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and potential write-down of the carrying values of crude oil and natural gas properties; ability to successfully replace proved producing reserves; substantial capital expenditures required exploration, development and exploitation projects; potential liabilities resulting from operating hazards, natural disasters or other interruptions; risks related using the latest available horizontal drilling and completion techniques; uncertainties tied to lengthy period of development of identified drilling locations, which could increase costs and materially alter the occurrence or timing of their drilling; unexpected delays and cost overrun related to the development of estimated proved undeveloped reserves; concentration risk related to properties, which are located primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale of South Texas; loss of lease on undeveloped leasehold acreage that may result from lack of development or commercialization, which could materially adversely affect Lonestar's crude oil, natural gas and NGLs reserves and future production; inaccuracies in assumptions made in estimating proved reserves; Lonestar's limited control over activities in properties Lonestar does not operate; customer concentration risk; potential inconsistency between the present value of future net revenues from Lonestar's proved reserves and the current market value of Lonestar's estimated oil and natural gas reserves; risks related to derivative activities; covenant restrictions related to the revolving credit facility and the indenture that governs 8.75% Senior Notes due 2019; losses resulting from title deficiencies; risks related to health, safety and environmental laws and regulations; additional regulation of hydraulic fracturing, which has recently come under increased scrutiny; reduced demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs resulting from conservation measures and technological advances; inability to acquire adequate supplies of water for our drilling operations or to dispose of or recycle the used water economically and in an environmentally safe manner; climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of "greenhouse gases" that may increase operating costs and reduce demand for the crude oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the differential between benchmark prices of crude oil and natural gas and the reference or regional index price used to price actual crude oil and natural gas sales; recent federal legislation that may have adverse impact on ability to use derivative instruments to reduce the effects of commodity prices, interest rates and other risks associated with the business; and risks in connection with acquisitions and integration. These and other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on June 9, 2016, along with our other reports filed with the SEC could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this press release. Any such forward-looking statements represent management's estimates as of the date of this press release. While we may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments and unrealized (gain) loss on warrants.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) (together with its subsidiaries, "Lonestar") is pleased to announce continued progress in its efforts to reduce its long-term debt. At September 30, 2016, Lonestar's long-term debt stood at $284.4 million, a reduction of $35.0 million as compared to its long-term debt of $319.5 million at June 30, 2016. At September 30, 2016, Lonestar's long-term debt was comprised of $94.5 million under the revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") of Lonestar Resources Americas, Inc., Lonestar's wholly owned subsidiary ("LRAI"), $38.0 million of LRAI's 12% second lien senior notes (the "Second Lien Notes"), and $151.8 million of LRAI's 8 ¾% senior notes (the "Unsecured Notes").
As of September 30, 2016, Lonestar had repurchased a total of $68.2 million of its Unsecured Notes, which it financed with the issuance of $38.0 million of Second Lien Notes and, subject to the final approval of a majority of Lonestar's outstanding stockholders, the issuance of 222,821 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $9.26 per share. Lonestar has filed Current Reports on Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission detailing these financings.
Lonestar is also pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its remaining conventional oil and gas assets to a private company for $14.0 million, bringing the total proceeds expected from its conventional asset divestiture process to $16.2 million. The closing of this sale is scheduled for October 31, 2016. Upon the application of the proceeds of this sale to amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, Lonestar's long-term debt as of September 30, 2016 would have been $270.4 million.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Lonestar Resources US, Inc. (NASDAQ: LONE) is pleased to announce that, effective immediately, John H. Pinkerton, a Director of the Company since March, 2015, has assumed the role of Chairman of the Board.
Mr. Pinkerton became a director of Range Resources Corporation in 1988 and was elected Chairman of the Board of Directors in 2008. He joined Range Resources as President in 1990 and was appointed Chief Executive Officer in 1992. In 2012, Mr. Pinkerton retired as Chief Executive Officer and stepped down as Chairman on January 1, 2015 and as a Director on April 11, 2016. Previously, Mr. Pinkerton served in various capacities at Snyder Oil Corporation for twelve years, including the position of Senior Vice President. Mr. Pinkerton received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration from Texas Christian University, where he now serves on the board of trustees, and a Master's degree from the University of Texas at Arlington.
During his 27-year tenure at Range Resources, Mr. Pinkerton was responsible for guiding it from its small cap origins to be the $9 billion dollar enterprise (by market capitalization plus debt) it is today with a strong position in the Marcellus Shale, one of the Unite States' most attractive unconventional natural gas basins. As its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Pinkerton transformed Range Resources by establishing the technical expertise to enable a drilling-led strategy complemented by bolt-on acquisitions where synergies would enhance growth. Since 2004, John focused on expanding Range Resource's acreage and reserves in the Marcellus Shale. Under his leadership, Range experienced a substantial increase in the scale of the business, and seven consecutive years of double-digit growth in both production volume and reserves (adjusted for debt).
Mr. Pinkerton has experience in the management, acquisition and divestiture of oil and gas properties—including related corporate financing activities—hedging, risk analysis and the evaluation of drilling programs. He has represented the industry in policy matters, serving on the executive committee of America's Natural Gas Alliance. Frank D. Bracken, III, Lonestar's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We believe John's industry experience and leadership will be an enormous benefit as Lonestar continues to execute its growth strategy. We are delighted that John shares our vision of growing Lonestar's leasehold, reserves and asset value and am confident that having John as our Chairman will be a difference-maker to our Company." Bernard Lambilliotte, Lonestar's director and retiring Chairman, added, "John has contributed meaningfully to Lonestar's ability to emerge stronger from the tough oil markets of the past eighteen months. We believe the Company is now well-positioned to create shareholder value and I look forward to John helping Lonestar to unlock its full potential."

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company's operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company's operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company's computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.
