Operating Costs
During the first quarter of 2023, lease operating expense
("LOE") was $11.7 million or
$7.79 per Boe primarily driven by
increased activity over the period in response to winter weather
events, increased costs driven by inflation, and more producing
wells driven by the Company's well reactivation program.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, general and
administrative expense ("G&A") was $2.9
million, or $1.94 per Boe.
Adjusted G&A(1) was $2.5 million, or $1.68 per Boe.
Liquidity and Capital Structure
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $287.6 million of cash and cash equivalents,
including restricted cash, diversified across multiple financial
institutions. The Company has no outstanding term or revolving debt
obligations.
Operational Results & Update
Production
Production totaled 1,500 MBoe (16.7 MBoed, 17% oil, 28% NGLs and
55% natural gas) for the three months ended March 31, 2023
compared to 1,606 MBoe (17.8 MBoed, 13% oil, 33% NGLs, and 54%
natural gas) for the three months ended March 31, 2022. SandRidge's capital development
program has helped increase oil content as a percentage of total
production.
Development Program
SandRidge operated one drilling rig in the first quarter and
successfully drilled and completed two wells targeting the Meramec
formation in the core of the NW Stack play as part of its
previously announced capital development program. The Company plans
to drill and complete two additional operated wells, which will
conclude its program for the year. SandRidge will continue to
monitor opportunities for future development, with its primary
focus being to generate high rates of return. The higher oil
content of its new NW stack wells versus the Company's base
production was the primary driver of SandRidge's oil production
increasing by approximately 22% in the first quarter of 2023 versus
the first quarter of 2022. This increases the Company's oil as a
percentage of total production and enhances its commodity
realizations.
Well Reactivation & Rod Pump Conversion Program
Since the beginning of 2021, the Company has returned 182 wells
to production. During the first quarter, SandRidge also completed
four artificial lift conversions, helping to lower forward-looking
operating costs for this well set. These projects have helped lower
SandRidge's expected annual PDP decline to an average of ~8% over
the next ten years. The Company continues to ensure that all
projects meet high rate of return thresholds and remains capital
disciplined as the commodity price landscape has changed in recent
months. As a result, reactivation activity has decreased in 2023
but could increase again as commodity prices recover.
Outlook
SandRidge will continue to focus on growing the cash value and
generation capability of its asset base in a safe, responsible and
efficient manner, while exercising prudent capital allocations to
projects it believes provide high rates of returns in the current
commodity price outlook. These projects could include well
reactivations, artificial lift conversions to more efficient and
cost effective systems, and remaining drilling in high-graded
areas. The Company will continue to monitor forward-looking
commodity prices, results, costs and other factors that could
influence returns on investments, which will continue to shape its
disciplined development decisions in 2023 and beyond. SandRidge
will also continue to maintain the optionality to execute on value
accretive merger and acquisition opportunities that could bring
synergies, leverage the Company's core competencies, complement its
portfolio of assets, further utilize its approximately $1.6 billion of net operating losses ("NOLs"), or
otherwise yield attractive returns for its shareholders.
Environmental, Social, and Governance ("ESG")
SandRidge maintains its Environmental, Social, and Governance
("ESG") commitment, to include no routine flaring of produced
natural gas and transporting approximately 97% of its produced
water via pipeline instead of truck. Additionally, SandRidge
maintains an emphasis on the safety and training of our workforce.
We have personnel dedicated to the close monitoring of our safety
standards and daily operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes non-GAAP financial
measures. These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to
GAAP measures, and you should not consider
these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute
for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Below is
additional disclosure regarding each of
the non-GAAP measures used in this press release,
including reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP
measure.
Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating
Activities to Adjusted Operating Cash Flow
The Company defines Adjusted operating cash flow as net cash
provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets
and liabilities as shown in the following table. Adjusted Operating
cash flow is a supplemental financial measure used by the Company's
management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, rating
agencies and others who follow the industry as an indicator of the
Company's ability to internally fund exploration and development
activities or incur new debt. The Company also uses this measure
because operating cash flow relates to the timing of cash receipts
and disbursements that the Company may not control and may not
relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred.
Further, Adjusted operating cash flow allows the Company to compare
its operating performance and return on capital with those of other
companies without regard to financing methods and capital
structure. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as
a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities prepared
in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Free Cash Flow
The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by
operating activities plus net cash (used in) provided by investing
activities less the cash flow impact of acquisitions and
divestitures. Free cash flow is a supplemental financial measure
used by the Company's management and by securities analysts,
investors, lenders, rating agencies and others who follow the
industry as an indicator of the Company's ability to internally
fund exploration and development activities or incur new debt. This
measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for net cash provided by operating or investing activities prepared
in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA
The Company defines EBITDA as net income before income tax
(benefit) expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization
- other and depreciation and depletion - oil and natural gas.
Adjusted EBITDA, as presented herein, is EBITDA excluding items
that management believes affect the comparability of operating
results such as items whose timing and/or amount cannot be
reasonably estimated or are non-recurring, as shown in the
following tables.
Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it
provides useful additional information used by the Company's
management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, ratings
agencies and others who follow the industry for analysis of the
Company's financial and operating performance on a recurring basis
and the Company's ability to internally fund exploration and
development activities or incur new debt. In addition, management
believes that adjusted EBITDA is widely used by professional
research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and
investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas
industry. The Company's adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Reconciliation of Net Income Available to Common
Stockholders to Adjusted Net Income Available to Common
Stockholders
The Company defines adjusted net income as net income excluding
items that management believes affect the comparability of
operating results and are typically excluded from published
estimates by the investment community, including items whose timing
and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring,
as shown in the following tables.
Management uses the supplemental measure of adjusted net income
as an indicator of the Company's operational trends and performance
relative to other oil and natural gas companies and believes it is
more comparable to earnings estimates provided by securities
analysts. Adjusted net income is not a measure of financial
performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute
for net income available to common stockholders.

Reconciliation of General and Administrative to Adjusted
G&A
The Company reports and provides guidance on Adjusted G&A
per Boe because it believes this measure is commonly used by
management, analysts and investors as an indicator of cost
management and operating efficiency on a comparable basis from
period to period and to compare and make investment recommendations
of companies in the oil and gas industry. This non-GAAP measure
allows for the analysis of general and administrative spend without
regard to stock-based compensation programs and other non-recurring
cash items, if any, which can vary significantly between companies.
Adjusted G&A per Boe is not a measure of financial performance
under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for general
and administrative expense per Boe. Therefore, the Company's
Adjusted G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other companies'
similarly titled measures.
The Company defines adjusted G&A as general and
administrative expense adjusted for certain non-cash stock-based
compensation and other non-recurring items, if any, as shown in the
following tables:

Cautionary Note to Investors - This press release includes
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking
statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future
performance and reflect SandRidge's current beliefs and
expectations regarding future events and operating performance. The
forward-looking statements include projections and estimates of the
Company's corporate strategies, future operations, development
plans and appraisal programs, drilling inventory and
locations, estimated oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids
production, price realizations and differentials, hedging program,
projected operating, general and administrative and other costs,
projected capital expenditures, tax rates, efficiency and
cost reduction initiative outcomes, liquidity and capital structure
and the Company's unaudited proved developed PV-10 reserve value of
its Mid-Continent assets. We have based these forward-looking
statements on our current expectations and assumptions and analyses
made by us in light of our experience and our perception of
historical trends, current conditions and expected future
developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate
under the circumstances. However, whether actual results and
developments will conform with our expectations and predictions is
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the
volatility of oil and natural gas prices, our success in
discovering, estimating, developing and replacing oil and natural
gas reserves, actual decline curves and the actual effect of adding
compression to natural gas wells, the availability and terms of
capital, the ability of counterparties to transactions with us to
meet their obligations, our timely execution of hedge transactions,
credit conditions of global capital markets, changes in economic
conditions, the amount and timing of future development costs, the
availability and demand for alternative energy sources, regulatory
changes, including those related to carbon dioxide and greenhouse
gas emissions, and other factors, many of which are beyond our
control. We refer you to the discussion of risk factors in Part I,
Item 1A - "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in
comparable "Risk Factor" sections of our Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q filed after such form 10-K. All of the forward-looking
statements made in this press release are qualified by these
cautionary statements. The actual results or developments
anticipated may not be realized or, even if substantially realized,
they may not have the expected consequences to or effects on our
Company or our business or operations. Such statements are not
guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments
may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements.
