FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP (NYSE: KRP) ("Kimbell" or the "Company"), a leading owner of oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in more than 96,000 gross wells across 28 states, today announced financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. 

Third Quarter 2020 Highlights

• Q3 2020 daily production of 14,160 barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe") per day (6:1)
• Q3 2020 production was composed of approximately 59% from natural gas and approximately 41% from liquids (28% from oil and 13% from natural gas liquids ("NGL")) (6:1)
• Q3 2020 oil, natural gas and NGL revenues of $24.3 million, an increase of 45% from Q2 2020, reflecting improved realized commodity prices
• Q3 2020 realized hedging gains of approximately $675,000; substantial portion of projected oil and natural gas production hedged through Q3 2022
• Q3 2020 net loss of $25.7 million and Q3 2020 net loss attributable to common units of $17.8 million. The Q3 2020 net loss amount was primarily due to a non-cash ceiling test impairment expense of $22.2 million related to continued substantial weakness in commodity prices
• Q3 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $17.1 million
• As of September 30, 2020, Kimbell's major properties had 794 gross (2.62 net) drilled but uncompleted wells ("DUCs") and 573 gross (1.84 net) permitted locations on its acreage
• As of September 30, 2020, Kimbell had 30 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, which represented 12.0%¹ market share of all rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time
• Announced a Q3 2020 cash distribution of $0.19 per common unit, reflecting a payout ratio of 75% of cash available for distribution; implies a 12.4% annualized yield based on the November 4, 2020 closing price of $6.11 per common unit; Kimbell intends to utilize the remaining 25% of its cash available for distribution to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's revolving credit facility

¹ Based on Kimbell rig count of 30 and Baker Hughes U.S. land rig count of 251 as of October 2, 2020.

Robert Ravnaas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kimbell's general partner commented, "I am very pleased with our third quarter 2020 results, once again proving the resilience of our business model.  Production curtailments, which were put in place by certain operators during the height of the pandemic earlier this year, were largely reversed in the Permian and Eagle Ford during the third quarter of 2020.  However, curtailments were still largely in place on our Bakken assets as of the end of the third quarter of 2020.  We are hopeful that these will also reverse in the fourth quarter of 2020 given improved differentials and commodity prices. 

We are very excited to see the forecasted improvement in natural gas prices both in the fourth quarter of 2020 and full year 2021 based on the futures curve.  With approximately 59% of our daily production from natural gas, this price improvement could have a meaningful positive impact on our future cash flows and quarterly distribution payments.  To put this in perspective, natural gas prices have averaged $2.02 per Mcf so far this year.  The average forecasted natural gas price for full-year 2021 based on the futures curve is $3.03, which if it materializes would be a 50% improvement over 2020 year-to-date natural gas prices.  We have a substantial amount of drilling inventory located across the major natural gas basins in the United States, with a concentration in the core areas of the Haynesville and Marcellus.  We hope to benefit from this significant natural gas drilling inventory for years to come. "

Third Quarter 2020 Distribution and Debt Repayment

On October 23, 2020, the Board of Directors of Kimbell Royalty GP, LLC, Kimbell's general partner (the "Board of Directors"), approved a cash distribution payment to common unitholders of 75% of cash available for distribution for the third quarter of 2020, or $0.19 per common unit.  The distribution will be payable on November 9, 2020 to common unitholders of record at the close of business on November 2, 2020.  The Board of Directors will review the distribution policy quarterly.  Kimbell plans to utilize the remaining 25% of cash available for distribution for the third quarter of 2020 to pay down a portion of the outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's revolving credit facility.

Kimbell expects that substantially all of its third quarter distribution will not constitute taxable dividend income and instead will generally result in a non-taxable reduction to the tax basis of unitholders' common units.  The reduced tax basis will increase unitholders' capital gain (or decrease unitholders' capital loss) when unitholders sell their common units.  Furthermore, Kimbell expects that substantially all distributions paid to common unitholders from 2020 through 2023 will not be taxable dividend income and less than 25% of distributions paid to common unitholders for the subsequent two years (2024 to 2025) will be taxable dividend income. 

Financial Highlights

Kimbell's third quarter 2020 average realized price per Bbl of oil was $38.36, per Mcf of natural gas was $1.76, per Bbl of NGLs was $13.42 and per Boe combined was $18.67.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company's total revenues were $18.4 million, net loss was $25.7 million and net loss attributable to common units was $17.8 million, or $0.50 per common unit.  The net loss during the third quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a $22.2 million non-cash ceiling test impairment expense recorded during the quarter related to the continued substantial weakness in commodity prices.  This non-cash ceiling test impairment is not expected to impact the cash flow available for distribution generated by Kimbell or its liquidity or ability to make acquisitions in the future.

Total third quarter 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $17.1 million (consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measures at the end of this news release). 

In the third quarter of 2020, G&A expense was $6.1 million, $3.7 million of which was Cash G&A expense, or $2.81 per Boe (Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are non-GAAP financial measures.  Please see definition under Non-GAAP Financial Measures at end of this news release).  Unit-based compensation in the third quarter of 2020, which is a non-cash G&A expense, was $2.4 million or $1.88 per Boe. 

In spite of further stabilization in the oil and natural gas markets and improved differentials and commodity prices, Kimbell believes that the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and potential supply/demand imbalances in the oil and natural gas markets could continue to have an adverse effect on Kimbell's business, production, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations in the fourth quarter of 2020.

At September 30, 2020, Kimbell had approximately $169.7 million in debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility, total debt to third quarter 2020 trailing twelve month consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of approximately 2.2x and was in compliance with all financial covenants under its revolving credit facility. 

At the end of the third quarter, Kimbell had approximately $55.3 million in undrawn capacity (or approximately $130.3 million if aggregate commitments were equal to Kimbell's current borrowing base, which is $300.0 million).  Increases in commitments pursuant to the accordion feature of the revolving credit facility are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including obtaining additional commitments from new or existing lenders. 

Production

Third quarter 2020 average daily production was 14,160 Boe per day (6:1), composed of approximately 59% from natural gas (6:1) and approximately 41% from liquids (28% from oil and 13% from NGLs).

Operational Update

As of September 30, 2020, Kimbell's major properties had 794 gross (2.62 net) DUCs and 573 gross (1.84 net) permitted locations on its acreage.  In addition, as of September 30, 2020, Kimbell had 30 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, which represents an approximate 12.0% market share of all land rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time.

Supplemental Schedules

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA and Cash G&A are used as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measures by management and external users of Kimbell's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.  Kimbell believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate Kimbell's operating performance and compare the results of Kimbell's operations period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure.  In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate cash flow available to pay distributions to Kimbell's unitholders.  Kimbell defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, non-cash unit-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivative instruments, equity income from affiliates, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, income taxes and depreciation and depletion expense, and adjusted for distributions from equity investments.  Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) or net cash provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP.  Kimbell excludes the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within Kimbell's industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.  Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA 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 historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA.  Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids revenues, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.  Kimbell's computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.  Kimbell expects that cash available for distribution for each quarter will generally equal its Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations and fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate.

Kimbell believes Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are useful metrics because they isolate cash costs within overall G&A expense and measure cash costs relative to overall production, which is a widely utilized metric to evaluate operational performance within the energy sector.  Cash G&A is defined as general and administrative expenses less unit-based compensation expense.  Cash G&A per Boe is defined as Cash G&A divided by total production for a period.  Cash G&A should not be considered an alternative to G&A expense presented in accordance with GAAP. Kimbell's computations of Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP (NYSE: KRP) ("Kimbell" or the "Company"), a leading owner of oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in more than 96,000 gross wells across 28 states, today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. 

Second Quarter 2020 Highlights

• Q2 2020 run-rate daily production of 14,069 barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe") per day (6:1)
• Including a full quarter of the production attributable to the Springbok assets, Q2 2020 run-rate daily production of 14,090 Boe per day (6:1), down 7% from Q1 2020 record production of 15,188 Boe per day (6:1)
• Substantially all of the decrease in production between Q1 2020 and Q2 2020 was due to curtailments that occurred in Q2 2020
• Q2 2020 production was comprised of approximately 41% from liquids (28% from oil and 13% from natural gas liquids ("NGL")) and approximately 59% from natural gas (6:1)
• Q2 2020 oil, natural gas and NGL revenues of $16.8 million, reflecting impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and related supply/demand imbalances in the U.S. oil and natural gas markets that significantly depressed production prices
• Q2 2020 realized hedging gains of $2.9 million; substantial portion of projected oil and natural gas production hedged through Q2 2022
• Q2 2020 net loss of $76.8 million and Q2 2020 net loss attributable to common units of $48.0 million. The Q2 2020 net loss amount was primarily due to a non-cash ceiling test impairment expense of $65.5 million related to the substantial weakness in commodity prices
• Q2 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $12.1 million
• As of June 30, 2020, Kimbell had 806 gross (2.98 net) drilled but uncompleted wells ("DUCs") and 611 gross (2.25 net) permitted locations on its acreage
• As of June 30, 2020, Kimbell had 29 rigs actively drilling on our acreage, which represented 11.6%¹ market share of all rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time
• Announced a cash distribution of $0.13 per common unit and an increase in the pay-out ratio of cash available for distribution from 50% in Q1 2020 to 75% in Q2 2020; implies a 5.8% annualized yield based on the August 5, 2020 closing price of $9.00 per common unit; Kimbell intends to utilize the remaining 25% of its available cash to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's credit facility
• On June 1, 2020, Kimbell received unanimous reaffirmation of its $300.0 million borrowing base and total commitments of $225.0 million

Robert Ravnaas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kimbell's general partner commented, "We are encouraged by what we see as a gradual recovery in both commodity prices and the U.S. economy and are cautiously optimistic that the worst is behind us with regard to production curtailments.  Despite challenges during the second quarter, we believe we benefited from the full integration of the Springbok assets and increased our Q2 2020 payout ratio from 50% to 75% of cash available for distribution.  We believe the Kimbell business model is highly differentiated from most companies in the U.S. energy sector given our pure royalty model, diverse asset base, mix of commodities, substantial hedges and low PDP decline rate, which is among the best in the industry.  While many risks and uncertainties remain in the economy and surrounding the continuing COVID-19 crisis, we believe Kimbell is well-positioned to manage its business through these challenges."

Second Quarter 2020 Distribution and Debt Repayment

On July 24, 2020, the Board of Directors of Kimbell Royalty GP, LLC, Kimbell's general partner (the "Board of Directors"), approved a cash distribution payment to common unitholders of 75% of cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2020, or $0.13 per common unit.  The cash distribution will be payable on August 10, 2020 to common unitholders of record at the close of business on August 3, 2020.  The Board of Directors will review the distribution policy quarterly.  Kimbell expects to utilize the remaining 25% of cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2020 to pay-down $2.5 million of outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's credit facility. 

Kimbell expects that substantially all of its second quarter distribution will not constitute taxable dividend income and instead will generally result in a non-taxable reduction to the tax basis of unitholders' common units.  The reduced tax basis will increase unitholders' capital gain (or decrease unitholders' capital loss) when unitholders sell their common units.  Furthermore, Kimbell expects that substantially all distributions paid to common unitholders from 2020 through 2023 will not be taxable dividend income and less than 25% of distributions paid to common unitholders for the subsequent two years (2024 to 2025) will be taxable dividend income. 

Financial Highlights

Kimbell's second quarter 2020 average realized price per Bbl of oil was $24.89, per Mcf of natural gas was $1.44, per Bbl of NGLs was $7.87 and per Boe combined was $13.09.

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company's total revenues were $12.8 million, net loss was $76.8 million and net loss attributable to common units was $48.0 million, or $1.39 per common unit.  The net loss during the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a $65.5 million non-cash ceiling test impairment expense recorded during the quarter related to the substantial weakness in commodity prices.  This non-cash ceiling test impairment is not expected to impact the cash flow available for distribution generated by Kimbell or its liquidity or ability to make acquisitions in the future.

Total second quarter 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $12.1 million (consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measures at the end of this news release).  Our second quarter 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was reduced by a one-time $300,000 expense related to the transition services agreement entered into in connection with our acquisition of the Springbok assets.

G&A expense was $6.9 million in Q2 2020, $4.3 million of which was Cash G&A expense, or $3.48 per Boe (Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are non-GAAP financial measures.  Please see definition under Non-GAAP Financial Measures at end of this news release).  Unit-based compensation in Q2 2020, which is a non-cash G&A expense, was $2.5 million or $2.04 per Boe.  Cash G&A expense per Boe was increased by a one-time $300,000 expense related to the transition services agreement entered into in connection with our acquisition of the Springbok assets.

Although there has been stabilization in the oil and natural gas markets since the second quarter, Kimbell believes that the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and potential supply/demand imbalances in the oil and natural gas markets could continue to have an adverse effect on Kimbell's business, production, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations in the second half of 2020.

At June 30, 2020, Kimbell had approximately $171.7 million in debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility, total debt to Q2 2020 trailing twelve month consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of approximately 2.3x and was in compliance with all financial covenants under its revolving credit facility. 

After giving effect to $477,051 in borrowings to fund acquisitions under Kimbell's micro investment strategy so far in Q3 2020 and the repayment of $2.5 million in outstanding borrowings discussed above, which is anticipated to occur in Q3 2020, Kimbell expects to have approximately $169.7 million in outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and approximately $55.3 million in undrawn capacity (or approximately $130.3 million if aggregate commitments were equal to Kimbell's current borrowing base, which is $300.0 million).  Increases in commitments pursuant to the accordion feature of the revolving credit facility are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including obtaining additional commitments from new or existing lenders. 

Production

Second quarter 2020 average daily production was 14,254 Boe per day (6:1), which consisted of 185 Boe per day relating to prior period production recognized in Q2 2020 and 14,069 Boe per day of run-rate production.  The 14,069 Boe per day of run-rate production for Q2 2020 was comprised of approximately 41% from liquids (28% from oil and 13% from NGLs) and approximately 59% from natural gas (6:1).  The prior period production recognized in Q2 2020 was primarily due to new wells outperforming estimates.

Operational Update

As of June 30, 2020, Kimbell had 806 gross (2.98 net) DUCs and 611 gross (2.25 net) permitted locations on its acreage.  In addition, as of June 30, 2020, Kimbell had 29 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, which represents an approximate 11.6% market share of all land rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time.

Supplemental Schedules

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA and Cash G&A are used as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measures by management and external users of Kimbell's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.  Kimbell believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate Kimbell's operating performance and compare the results of Kimbell's operations period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure.  In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate cash flow available to pay distributions to Kimbell's unitholders.  Kimbell defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, non-cash unit-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivative instruments, equity income from affiliates, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, income taxes and depreciation and depletion expense, and adjusted for distributions from equity investments.  Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) or net cash provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP.  Kimbell excludes the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within Kimbell's industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.  Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA 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 historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA.  Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids revenues, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.  Kimbell's computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.  Kimbell expects that cash available for distribution for each quarter will generally equal its Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations and fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate.

Kimbell believes Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are useful metrics because they isolate cash costs within overall G&A expense and measure cash costs relative to overall production, which is a widely utilized metric to evaluate operational performance within the energy sector.  Cash G&A is defined as general and administrative expenses less unit-based compensation expense.  Cash G&A per Boe is defined as Cash G&A divided by total production for a period.  Cash G&A should not be considered an alternative to G&A expense presented in accordance with GAAP. Kimbell's computations of Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

FORT WORTH, Texas, July 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP (NYSE: KRP) ("Kimbell"), a leading owner of oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in more than 96,000 gross wells across 28 states, today announced that the Board of Directors of Kimbell Royalty GP, LLC, Kimbell's general partner (the "Board of Directors") approved a cash distribution payment of 75% of projected cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2020, or $0.13 per common unit.  The distribution will be payable on August 10, 2020 to common unitholders of record at the close of business on August 3, 2020.

"Since our last quarterly distribution declaration in April 2020, we are encouraged by the gradual recovery in both commodity prices and the U.S. economy, including gasoline demand, retail sales and new home starts.  We are also hopeful that the worst is behind us with regard to production curtailments, which appear to have peaked in May and early June 2020.  However, many risks remain in the economy, including, but not limited to, significant recent increases in COVID-19 cases across the country, additional potential shut-downs related to COVID-19 and the related effects on U.S. employment.  In addition, significant uncertainties remain in the U.S. energy sector, primarily related to the pace of new drilling and completions for the remainder of 2020.  However, we believe the Kimbell business model is highly differentiated from most companies in the U.S. energy sector given our pure royalty model, diverse asset base, mix of commodities, substantial hedges and low PDP decline rate, which is among the best in the industry.  As a result, management recommended and the Board of Directors approved an increase in the payout ratio of projected cash available for distribution from 50% in Q1 2020 to 75% in Q2 2020.  We intend to utilize the remaining 25% of Q2 2020 projected cash available for distribution to pay down a portion of the outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's credit facility.  We look forward to reporting operational and financial results and providing additional commentary on the U.S. minerals sector when we release earnings, which we expect to do on August 6, 2020," commented Robert Ravnaas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kimbell's general partner.

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP (NYSE: KRP) ("Kimbell" or the "Company"), a leading owner of oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in more than 96,000 gross wells across 28 states, today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020. 

First Quarter 2020 Highlights

• Q1 2020 oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids ("NGL") revenues of $25.6 million, up 12% as compared to Q1 2019
• Q1 2020 run-rate daily production of 12,602 barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe") per day (6:1), up 5% as compared to Q1 2019
• Including a full quarter of production attributable to the Springbok assets, record Q1 2020 run-rate daily production of 15,188 Boe per day (6:1), up 27% as compared to Q1 2019
• Q1 2020 net loss of $59.8 million and Q1 2020 net loss attributable to common units of $39.3 million, compared to Q1 2019 net loss attributable to common units of $3.7 million. The Q1 2020 net loss amount was primarily due to a non-cash ceiling test impairment expense of $70.9 million related to the substantial weakness in commodity prices
• Q1 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $18.8 million, up 17% as compared to Q1 2019
• Including a full quarter of revenues attributable to the Springbok assets, Q1 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $23.3 million¹, up 44% compared to Q1 2019 and a new record
• Including the Springbok assets¹, 2.96 net (882 gross) drilled but uncompleted wells ("DUCs") and 2.35 net (476 gross) permitted locations on Kimbell's acreage as of March 31, 2020
• Q1 2020 cash distribution of $0.17 per common unit (50% of Q1 2020 cash available for distribution); implies a 10.1% annualized yield based on the May 6, 2020 closing price of $6.75 per common unit; Kimbell intends to pay down $15 million of debt in Q2 2020
• Completed a public offering of 5 million common units for net proceeds of approximately $73.6 million, which were used to pre-fund the cash portion of the Springbok acquisition, which closed on April 17, 2020
• Completed the redemption of 50% of Kimbell's outstanding Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Units for an aggregate redemption price of $61.1 million on February 12, 2020

Robert Ravnaas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kimbell's general partner commented, "We are pleased with our first quarter performance and, after giving effect to a full quarter of production and revenues attributable to the Springbok acquisition, we had record production and consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.  Despite the positive start to this year, we are all responding and adjusting to the unprecedented global economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainties related to the U.S. oil market and the potential for production curtailments.  We believe that we are well-positioned to weather this storm, with approximately 60% of our first quarter production coming from natural gas, for which the outlook appears increasingly strong, one of the lowest PDP decline rates in the industry, our robust fixed-price hedges for oil and natural gas and a strong balance sheet and liquidity position."

First Quarter 2020 Distribution and Debt Repayment

On April 24, 2020, the Board of Directors of Kimbell Royalty GP, LLC, Kimbell's general partner (the "Board of Directors"), approved a cash distribution payment to common unitholders of 50% of cash available for distribution for the first quarter of 2020, or $0.17 per common unit.  The Board of Directors also approved a $15 million repayment of outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's revolving credit facility.  The cash distribution will be payable on May 11, 2020 to common unitholders of record at the close of business on May 4, 2020.  The Board of Directors will review the distribution policy quarterly.

Kimbell expects that substantially all of its first quarter distribution will not constitute taxable dividend income and instead will generally result in a non-taxable reduction to the tax basis of unitholders' common units.  The reduced tax basis will increase unitholders' capital gain (or decrease unitholders' capital loss) when unitholders sell their common units.  Furthermore, Kimbell expects that substantially all distributions paid to common unitholders from 2020 through 2023 will not be taxable dividend income and less than 25% of distributions paid to common unitholders for the subsequent two years (2024 to 2025) will be taxable dividend income. 

Financial Highlights

Total first quarter 2020 revenues were $35.9 million, compared to $17.9 million in the first quarter of 2019.  First quarter 2020 net loss was $59.8 million, and net loss attributable to common units was $39.3 million, or $1.29 per common unit, compared to net loss attributable to common units of $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2019.  The increase in net loss during the first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a $70.9 million non-cash ceiling test impairment recorded during the quarter related to the substantial weakness in commodity prices driven by recent production disagreements among members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries ("OPEC") and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, coupled with decreased demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and increasing supply by domestic producers.  This non-cash ceiling test impairment is not expected to impact the cash flow available for distribution generated by Kimbell or its liquidity or ability to make acquisitions in the future.

Total first quarter 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA grew to $18.8 million, compared to $16.1 million in the first quarter of 2019 (consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Please see a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measures at the end of this news release).  During the first quarter of 2020, average realized price per Bbl of oil was $44.48, per Mcf of natural gas was $1.75, per Bbl of NGLs was $12.22 and per Boe combined was $19.83. 

G&A expense was $6.5 million in Q1 2020, $4.4 million of which was Cash G&A expense, or $3.85 per Boe (Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are non-GAAP financial measures.  Please see definition under Non-GAAP Financial Measures at end of this news release).  Unit-based compensation in Q1 2020, which is a non-cash G&A expense, was $2.1 million or $1.84 per Boe.  Cash G&A expense including a full quarter of the Q1 2020 production attributable to the Springbok assets was $3.20 per Boe.

Kimbell believes that the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and OPEC disagreements have generated a supply/demand imbalance in the oil and natural gas markets, and Kimbell expects that as the supply/demand imbalance continues, and as oil storage facilities reach capacity and/or purchasers of crude products cancel previous orders, more of its operators may adjust or reduce their drilling activities, which could have an adverse effect on Kimbell's business, production, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations in the second quarter of 2020.

As of March 31, 2020, Kimbell had outstanding 34,378,849 common units and 20,644,047 Class B units.  As of May 7, 2020, Kimbell had outstanding 36,602,811 common units and 23,141,181 Class B units. 

Production

First quarter 2020 average daily production was 13,358 Boe per day (6:1), which consisted of 756 Boe per day relating to prior period production recognized in Q1 2020 and 12,602 Boe per day of run-rate production.  The 12,602 Boe per day of run-rate production for Q1 2020 was comprised of approximately 40% from liquids (27% from oil and 13% from NGLs) and approximately 60% from natural gas (6:1).  The prior period production recognized in Q1 2020 was primarily due to new wells outperforming estimates.  Including a full quarter of production attributable to the Springbok assets, Q1 2020 run-rate daily production was 15,188 Boe per day and was comprised of approximately 41% from liquids (28% from oil and 13% from NGLs) and approximately 59% from natural gas (6:1).

Operational Update

As of March 31, 2020, Kimbell had 882 gross (2.96 net) drilled but uncompleted wells ("DUCs") and 476 gross (2.35 net) permitted locations on its acreage.  In addition, as of April 17, 2020, Kimbell had 70 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, which represents an approximate 13.7%² market share of all land rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time, up from 11.9%³ at year-end 2019.⁴

Liquidity

At March 31, 2020, Kimbell had approximately $101.2 million in debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility and was in compliance with all financial covenants under its revolving credit facility. 

On May 7, 2020, after taking into account the previously disclosed drawdown to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for the Springbok acquisition, Kimbell had approximately $186.7 million in borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility.  After giving effect to the repayment of $15 million in outstanding borrowings discussed above, which is anticipated to occur in Q2 2020, Kimbell expects to have approximately $171.7 million in outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and approximately $53.3 million in undrawn capacity (or approximately $128.3 million if aggregate commitments were equal to Kimbell's current borrowing base, which is $300 million) and pro forma total debt to Q1 2020 annualized consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, including a full quarter of the Springbok assets, of approximately 1.8x.  Increases in commitments pursuant to the accordion feature of the revolving credit facility are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including obtaining additional commitments from new or existing lenders.
