Strong Cash Flow Generation

Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.147 Per Share

GeoPark Limited ("GeoPark" or the "Company") (NYSE:GPRK), a leading independent Latin American oil and gas explorer, operator, and consolidator, reports its consolidated financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 ("Third Quarter" or "3Q2024"). A conference call to discuss these financial results will be held on November 7, 2024, at 10:00am (Eastern Standard Time).

THIRD QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL SUMMARY

In 3Q2024, GeoPark delivered solid financial performance with $99.8 million Adjusted EBITDA,¹ a margin of 63% and $25.1 million net profit, amidst a softer price environment and operational challenges. Net profit was 1.2% higher than 3Q2023, demonstrating resilient profitability in the context of lower oil prices. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the same period in 2023, underscoring the strength and consistency of our financial results year-to-date.

GeoPark invested $45.9 million in capital expenditures in 3Q2024, focused on: i) facilities upgrades and advancing development and appraisal activities in the Llanos 34 Block (GeoPark operated, 45% WI) in Colombia, including an ongoing water-flooding campaign and facility expansions; ii) drilling two exploration wells in the CPO-5 Block (GeoPark non-operated, 30% WI) in Colombia; iii) ongoing delineation and exploration in the Toritos and Bisbita fields in the Llanos 123 Block (GeoPark operated, 50% WI) in Colombia; iv) exploration and workover activities in the Espejo (GeoPark operated, 50% WI) and Perico (GeoPark non-operated, 50% WI) Blocks in Ecuador; and v) infrastructure development, with the construction of drilling pads in the Put-8 Block (GeoPark operated, 50% WI) in Colombia.

Underscoring its ongoing commitment to disciplined financial management, GeoPark concluded 3Q2024 with a growing cash balance that reached $123.4 million at end-September, while net leverage remained low at 0.8x. GeoPark's debt profile remains resilient, with no principal maturities scheduled until January 2027.

Each dollar invested in capital expenditures yielded $2.2 in Adjusted EBITDA, and the return on average capital employed (ROACE) reached 34%. These financial achievements and discipline allowed GeoPark to reward its shareholders once again with a quarterly dividend of $7.5 million ($0.147 per share), representing an annualized dividend of $30 million and a yield of approximately 7%.

Quarterly average oil and gas production in 3Q2024 was 33,215 boepd,² down 4% compared to 3Q2023 mainly due to the divestment of the Chilean business in 1Q2024, suspended operations at the Manati gas field in Brazil (GeoPark non-operated, 10% WI), production in the Llanos 34 Block not offsetting the natural base decline, and continued blockades affecting operations in the Llanos 34 and CPO-5 Blocks. These factors were previously identified as risks, and their realization has impacted production within the anticipated 1,500-2,500 boepd average range for the year.

GeoPark's acquisition of four unconventional hydrocarbon blocks in Vaca Muerta, Argentina became effective on July 1, 2024, with the transaction expected to close (pending regulatory approvals) by the end of 2024.³ During 3Q2024, the development wells in the Mata Mora Norte Block (GeoPark non-operated, 45% WI) achieved a gross average production of 12,621 boepd, demonstrating the high productivity of these assets. The operator is now initiating production from three exploration wells in the Confluencia Norte Block (GeoPark non-operated, 50% WI), aimed at unlocking and de-risking the substantial growth potential of this block. The Group's Argentine subsidiary, GeoPark Argentina, S.A., has secured crucial capital markets approvals, including bank credit lines, an AA+(arg) credit rating from Fitch Ratings' local Argentine affiliate FIX, and authorization from Argentina's securities regulator (Comisión Nacional de Valores or "CNV") to issue up to $500 million in debt securities over the next five years, providing strategic financial flexibility to support the future development of these assets.

Looking ahead, GeoPark plans to release its 2025 Work Program and Investment Guidelines before year-end. This upcoming framework will outline GeoPark's strategic initiatives and capital allocation priorities, setting the stage for sustainable growth and enhanced value creation across its asset portfolio.

Andrés Ocampo, Chief Executive Officer of GeoPark, said: "In the third quarter, we continued to build on our strengths, generating robust cash flow and efficiently advancing our strategic initiatives with a disciplined $45.9 million investment in capital expenditures. This investment focused on key development, appraisal, and exploration activities across our core assets in Colombia and Ecuador. Our expansion into Vaca Muerta also took an important step forward with a recent field trip, where alongside our partner, Phoenix Global Resources, we hosted a group of fixed income and equity investors. This visit provided an invaluable opportunity to showcase our growth strategy first hand and highlight the scalable, efficient growth potential of our unconventional assets in Vaca Muerta. We remain committed to disciplined capital allocation and maximizing shareholder value as we unlock further potential in our core assets and prepare for sustained, long-term growth in Argentina."

Rounding amounts and percentages: Certain amounts and percentages included in this press release and its supplementary information have been rounded for ease of presentation. Percentage figures included in this press release and its supplementary information have not in all cases been calculated on the basis of such rounded figures, but on the basis of such amounts prior to rounding. In addition, certain other amounts that appear in this press release and its supplementary information may not sum due to rounding.

This press release and its supplementary information contain certain oil and gas metrics, including information per share, operating netback, reserve life index and others, which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This press release and its supplementary information contain statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Many of the forward-looking statements contained in this press release can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as ‘‘anticipate,'' ‘‘believe,'' ‘‘could,'' ‘‘expect,'' ‘‘should,'' ‘‘plan,'' ‘‘intend,'' ‘‘will,'' ‘‘estimate'' and ‘‘potential,'' among others.

Forward-looking statements that appear in a number of places in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations, regarding various matters, including production, timing for closing of the acquisition transaction, Work Program and Investment Guidelines, strategic initiatives, growth and capital allocation. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs and assumptions, and on information currently available to the management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to various factors.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update them in light of new information or future developments or to release publicly any revisions to these statements in order to reflect later events or circumstances, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. For a discussion of the risks facing the Company which could affect whether these forward-looking statements are realized, see filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Oil and gas production figures included in this press release and its supplementary information are stated before the effect of royalties paid in kind, consumption and losses. Annual production per day is obtained by dividing total production by 365 days.

Non-GAAP Measures: The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and operating netback per boe, which are each non-GAAP measures, are useful because they allow the Company to more effectively evaluate its operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and operating netback per boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as profit for the period before net finance costs, income tax, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash items such as impairments and write-offs of unsuccessful exploration and evaluation assets, accrual of stock options and stock awards, unrealized results on commodity risk management contracts and other non-recurring events. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of profit or cash flow as determined by IFRS. The Company excludes the items listed above from profit for the period in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flow from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. 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 and significant and/or recurring write-offs, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the IFRS financial measure of profit, see the accompanying financial tables and the supplementary information.

Operating Netback per boe: Operating netback per boe should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flow from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from operating netback per boe are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure and significant and/or recurring write-offs, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of operating netback per boe. The Company's calculation of operating netback per boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
