- Third quarter 2026 production increased 298% to 538,231 Boe (average 5,850 Boe/d), compared to 135,266 Boe (1,471 Boe/d) in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting contribution from the asset base acquired in the Q4 2025 merger.
- Oil and gas revenue increased 411% to $35.5 million, compared to $7.0 million in the prior year period, driven by significantly higher production volumes and a 31% increase in the average realized oil price to $83.81 per barrel.
- Third quarter 2026 net loss of $9.2 million or $(0.70) per common share, compared to a net loss of $0.3 million or $(0.07) per share in the third quarter of 2025. Higher operating income from the expanded asset base, including a $4.7 million net gain on the sale of oil and gas properties, was more than offset by a $16.6 million net loss on derivative contracts, of which $12.0 million was non-cash and unrealized.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 239% to $14.7 million, compared to $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting higher production volumes from the expanded asset base and a higher average realized oil price.
- Development activity accelerated during the quarter with the completion of a previously drilled well in the D-J Basin, the drilling of a new well in the Powder River Basin and the addition of Mowry acreage through a BLM lease sale. With post-merger optimization well advanced, the Company is increasingly focused on developing its extensive Rockies inventory, which it expects will drive meaningful production growth in 2027 while preserving balance sheet strength.
- Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company’s borrowing base and elected commitments under its revolving credit facility were reaffirmed at $125 million in October 2026.
- The Chief Executive Officer search is active and the Company is considering a wide variety of qualified candidates to best lead the organization into the season of growth ahead. The Company hopes to make an announcement soon.
2026 Guidance
- Full-year 2026 guidance for net capital expenditures: The Company is updating its full-year 2026 guidance for net capital expenditures to a range of $37 million to $42 million. This compares to prior guidance of up to $20 million, which reflected only first-half activity. The increase is primarily driven by lease acquisitions that expanded the Company’s position in the Mowry Shale and by development activity through the fourth quarter.
- Full-year 2026 guidance for Adjusted EBITDA: The Company is reiterating its full-year 2026 guidance for Adjusted EBITDA of $60 million to $70 million(3).
(3) The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it is unable to do so without unreasonable efforts. Net income (loss) includes items that cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty and that may be significant, including unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts, which depend on future commodity prices; impairment of oil and gas properties; gains and losses on the sale of oil and gas properties; severance and merger-related costs; and income taxes. The variability of these items could have a significant impact on the Company’s net income (loss) as reported under GAAP. The reiterated guidance reflects the revised definition of Adjusted EBITDA described in footnote (1) above, which excludes severance costs. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.
Management Commentary
Reagan (R.T.) Dukes, Interim President, Interim Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Operating Officer of PEDEVCO, commented:
“Over the past year, we have assembled a Rockies-focused platform with the scale, operating control and inventory depth to support years of organic development. With substantial progress made integrating our assets and our optimization program well underway, PEDEVCO is entering its next phase: translating that inventory into production growth.
“Our actions over the last few months have reflected our priorities. We have expanded our position in some of the most attractive areas of our Rockies portfolio while accelerating development and optimization activity. Although these optimizations temporarily weighed on third-quarter production, the affected wells have since returned online, and we expect sequentially stronger production results in the fourth quarter. Our future budgets will reflect our commitment to concentrating capital where we see the greatest potential for growth and returns, which is in the Rocky Mountain region. These efforts are laying the foundation for a more focused, higher-growth business capable of creating meaningful long-term shareholder value.”
Third Quarter Financial Summary
Revenue. Total crude oil, natural gas and NGL revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026 increased 411% to $35.5 million, compared to $7.0 million for the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher production volumes reflecting the consolidation of the assets acquired in the October 2025 merger with certain portfolio companies controlled by Juniper Capital Advisors, L.P. (the “Juniper Merger”), together with a higher average realized oil price. Of the $28.6 million increase, $26.7 million was attributable to higher sales volumes and $1.9 million to higher realized pricing.
Lease Operating Expenses. Lease operating costs were $14.3 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $2.1 million for the prior year period, primarily as a result of operating costs from the acquired assets, compared to no costs from those assets in the prior year period, as the Juniper Merger closed on October 31, 2025.
General and Administrative Expenses. Total G&A expenses (including share-based compensation) were $4.9 million, compared to $1.5 million for the prior year period, primarily due to $2.1 million of severance costs incurred in September 2026 in connection with the Company’s leadership transition and additional payroll expenses associated with the Juniper Merger.
Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion. DD&A was $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $4.0 million in the prior year period, driven by higher production volumes and a significantly expanded asset base following the Juniper Merger.
Net Loss on Derivative Contracts. The Company recognized a net loss of $16.6 million on its derivative contracts during the three months ended September 30, 2026, consisting of $4.6 million in realized settlement losses and a non-cash unrealized loss of $12.0 million, primarily due to the increase in commodity pricing from June 30, 2026 to September 30, 2026 related to unsettled periods.
Interest Expense. The Company incurred $1.7 million of interest expense, consisting of $1.5 million in interest on borrowings under its credit facility and $0.2 million in amortization of deferred financing costs, compared to $0.1 million of interest expense in the prior year period.
Net Income (Loss). The Company reported a net loss of $9.2 million or $(0.70) per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $0.3 million or $(0.07) per share for the prior year period, as higher operating income, including a $4.7 million net gain on the sale of oil and gas properties, was more than offset by a $16.6 million net loss on derivative contracts and $1.6 million of higher interest expense.
Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA was $14.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $4.3 million in the prior year period, reflecting a significant increase driven by higher production volumes from the assets acquired in the Juniper Merger and a higher average realized oil price.

Operational Update
Third quarter 2026 production of 538,231 Boe, or 5,850 Boe/d, declined 14% on an average daily basis compared to the second quarter, primarily as a result of temporary offset shut-ins associated with drilling and completion activity in the D-J Basin and the Powder River Basin, together with the Company’s decision to accelerate into the third quarter a series of rod conversions originally planned for the fourth quarter, and the Company’s sale of non-core acreage in the Northern PRB and related crude oil production. The temporary shut-ins and accelerated rod conversions curtailed over 200 barrels of oil per day of production during the quarter, and the affected wells have since returned to production.
D-J Basin. The Company holds approximately 85,898 net acres and holds interests in 74 gross (66.9 net) operated wells and 110 gross (12.5 net) non-operated wells in the D-J Basin. During the third quarter, the Company completed its previously disclosed D-J Basin drilled but uncompleted (“DUC”) well and accelerated several rod conversions into the quarter. In addition, in July 2026, the Company sold its interests in certain properties in Weld County, Colorado, for $2.5 million.
Powder River Basin (“PRB”). The Company holds approximately 183,829 net acres and holds interests in 39 gross (28.2 net) wells in the PRB, of which 8 gross (0.3 net) are non-operated. During the quarter, the Company drilled a new operated well, which is not expected to be brought online before year-end. The Company also acquired approximately 5,678 net acres of leasehold for approximately $5.9 million through a BLM lease sale, nearly doubling its Mowry position in this specific prospect area to approximately 12,000 net acres, one of the highest-growth areas in its portfolio. The Company is also participating in additional non-operated development, including three recently completed wells that began contributing production in early November and additional wells that were spud prior to quarter-end.
Permian Basin. The Company holds approximately 14,505 net acres and holds interests in 38 gross (34.5 net) wells in the Permian Basin, all of which the Company operates.
Liquidity and Capital Structure
As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash of $4.7 million and restricted cash of $1.1 million. During the quarter, revolver borrowings under the Company’s Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility declined to $80.0 million from $85.0 million as of June 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2026, the Company also had $45.0 million of additional availability under the facility.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release includes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are presented as supplemental measures of the Company’s performance. These are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance.
EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, impairment of oil and gas properties, unrealized (gain) loss on derivative contracts, gain on sale of oil and gas properties, net, merger acquisition costs, note receivable – credit loss and severance costs. The Company believes these measures provide additional useful information to investors and are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the oil and gas industry. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and cash-generating capacity across periods on a consistent basis, to assist in capital allocation decisions and to facilitate comparisons with other companies in the oil and gas industry, some of which calculate similarly titled measures differently. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, the Company’s calculation of these measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided at the end of this release. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net (loss) income, which is presented with equal or greater prominence in this release.

| (1) On July 31, 2026, the Company purchased crude oil put options with a strike price of $45.00 per Bbl, with premiums deferred and paid monthly as each period settles, covering the same volumes as its producer three-way collars for September 2026 through March 2027. The purchased puts offset the puts sold under those collars. Accordingly, the put sold price is presented as nil for the fourth quarter of 2026 and the first quarter of 2027, and the full year 2027 put sold price is a volume-weighted average that includes those offset volumes. | |||||||||||
