In other recent news, Amplify Energy Corp reported a remarkable earnings per share (EPS) of $3.8 for the first quarter of 2025, far surpassing the forecasted $0.21. Despite a net loss of $5.9 million, this result indicates significant improvement from the previous quarter’s $7.4 million loss. The company’s revenue for the quarter was $72 million, slightly below the anticipated $72.55 million. Amplify Energy’s operational achievements, particularly in the Beta field with new wells, contributed to these positive outcomes. However, the company faces challenges, including a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA to $19.4 million and ongoing negative free cash flow. Amplify Energy has also reduced its capital program due to uncertainties in oil prices. Recent transactions include the monetization of portions of its Haynesville acreage, generating $9.2 million in total proceeds. The company remains focused on cost reduction and portfolio optimization, with plans to resume development projects as market conditions improve.
