Chad L. Stephens, President and CEO, commented, "In 2023, PHX delivered year-over-year royalty volume growth of 23%, expanding 2P royalty reserves by 12%, generating significant operating cash flow and net income. These results enabled us to raise our quarterly dividend by 33% despite another challenging year in the natural gas pricing environment. Our strong balance sheet and strategy of modest leverage enabled us to deliver consistent results despite a historic drop in gas prices and rising interest rates validating our business strategy, which positions us for success in both up and down markets."
"Looking forward, we are optimistic that reduced drilling activity, announced production curtailments, and the expansion of LNG export facilities should balance the market and improve commodity prices," continued Mr. Stephens. "During the past year, PHX deployed more than $30 million to acquire almost 2,400 net royalty acres in the Haynesville and SCOOP plays. The acquisition of these high-quality minerals will further drive our royalty volumes, margin expansion and cash flow over the course of the next two to three years. With our strong financial position and a highly focused acquisition strategy we are poised to unlock value for our shareholders as the commodity pricing environment improves."

Quarter Ended Dec. 31, 2023 Results
The Company recorded net income of $2.5 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023, as compared to net income of $3.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2022. The change in net income was principally the result of a decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales, a decrease in gains on asset sales, and an increase in DD&A, partially offset by decreases in impairment, lease operating expenses, and transportation, gathering and marketing expenses.
Natural gas, oil and NGL revenue decreased $6.3 million, or 43%, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023, compared to the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2022, due to decreases in natural gas, oil and NGL prices of 55%, 5% and 17%, respectively, and a decrease in oil volumes of 24%, partially offset by an increase in natural gas volumes of 6%.
The increase in royalty production volumes during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023 to 1,946 Mmcfe from 1,628 Mmcfe during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2022 resulted from new wells in the Haynesville Shale and SCOOP coming online. The production decrease in working interest volumes during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023, as compared to the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2022, resulted from the divestiture of working interest properties in the Arkoma Stack and Eagle Ford Shale plays.
The Company had a net gain on derivative contracts of $3.2 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023, comprised of a $2.9 million non-cash gain on derivatives and a $0.3 million gain on settled derivatives, as compared to a net gain of $3.3 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2022. The change in net gain on derivative contracts was due to the Company's settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in Dec. 31, 2023 pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.
The Company recorded no impairment and made immaterial divestitures during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2023. Lease operating expenses and transportation, gathering and marketing expenses were lower due to the divestiture of working interest properties in the Arkoma Stack and Eagle Ford Shale plays.
Twelve Months Ended Dec. 31, 2023 Results
The Company recorded net income of $13.9 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023, as compared to net income of $17.1 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2022. The change in net income was principally the result of a decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales and a decrease in gains on asset sales, partially offset by an increase in gains associated with our derivative contracts and decreases in impairment, lease operating expenses, production and ad valorem taxes, and transportation, gathering and marketing expenses.
Natural gas, oil and NGL revenue decreased $34.5 million, or 49%, for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023, compared to the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2022, due to decreases in natural gas, oil and NGL prices of 58%, 18% and 37%, respectively, and decreases in natural gas, oil and NGL volumes of 1%, 10% and 14%, respectively.
The increase in royalty production volumes during the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023 to 8,123 Mmcfe from 6,613 Mmcfe during the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2022 resulted from new wells in the Haynesville Shale and SCOOP coming online. The production decrease in working interest volumes during the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023, as compared to the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2022, resulted from the divestiture of working interest properties in the Fayetteville Shale, Arkoma Stack, and Eagle Ford Shale plays.
The Company had a net gain on derivative contracts of $6.9 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023, comprised of a a $4.3 million non-cash gain on derivatives and a $2.6 million gain on settled derivatives, as compared to a net loss of ($16.3) million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2022. The gain on settled derivative contracts for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023 excludes $0.4 million of cash paid to settle off-market derivative contracts. The total net cash received to settle hedge contracts during the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023 was $2.2 million. The change in net gain on derivative contracts was due to the Company's settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in Dec. 31, 2023 pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.
Lease operating expenses and transportation, gathering and marketing expenses were lower due to the divestiture of working interest properties in the Fayetteville Shale, Arkoma Stack, and Eagle Ford Shale plays. Production and ad valorem taxes decreased due to a 49% decrease in natural gas, oil and NGL sales.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation
This press release includes certain "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including Regulation G. These non-GAAP financial measures are calculated using GAAP amounts in the Company's financial statements. These measures, detailed below, are provided in addition to, not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes thereto), included in the Company's SEC filings and posted on its website.
Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
The Company defines "adjusted EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, excluding non-cash gains (losses) on derivatives and gains (losses) on asset sales and including cash receipts from (payments on) off-market derivatives and restricted stock and deferred directors' expense. The Company has included a presentation of adjusted EBITDA because it recognizes that certain investors consider this amount to be a useful means of measuring the Company's ability to meet its debt service obligations and evaluating its financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA for the quarters indicated:

Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (TTM) Reconciliation
"Debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM)" is defined as the ratio of long-term debt to adjusted EBITDA on a trailing 12-month (TTM) basis. The Company has included a presentation of debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) because it recognizes that certain investors consider such ratios to be a useful means of measuring the Company's ability to meet its debt service obligations and for evaluating its financial performance. The debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) ratio has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA on a TTM basis and of the resulting debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) ratio:
