    Vital Energy

    (Laredo Petroleum)
    NYSE: VTLE
    Permian E&P producer

    Investment Highlights
    November.2023
    Assemble Assets -> Develop -> Sell

     Laredo was founded in October 2006 by Randy A. Foutch.


    Prior to founding Laredo, Mr. Foutch formed, built and sold three private oil
    and gas companies, all of which were focused on the same general areas of the
    Business Permian and Mid-Continent regions in which Laredo currently operates.
    In 1991, Mr. Foutch formed Colt Resources Corporation ("Colt"), with an
    model institutional sponsor. Colt was sold in a private transaction in 1996 for
    approximately $33 million. In 1997, Mr. Foutch formed Lariat Petroleum, Inc.
    ("Lariat") with a large institutional sponsor investing approximately $74 million
    in shale oil and using approximately $100 million of debt. In 2001, Lariat subsequently was
    sold for approximately $333 million. Most recently, in 2002, Mr. Foutch and
    several of our current managers formed Latigo Petroleum, Inc. ("Latigo"), with
    institutional sponsors investing approximately $160 million, and utilizing an
    additional approximately $200 million of debt. Latigo was sold in 2006 for
    approximately $750 million.
    All of these companies executed the same fundamental business strategy in
    the same general operating areas that created significant growth in cash flow,
    production and reserves.
    In potential deals, CEOs look at proved reserves

     Oil producers buy single properties and whole companies in order to


    increase inventory which can be developed and turned into oil.

    They assess properties by minerals which can be profitably extracted


    What basis to from them or, in other words, by proved reserves.

    use for asset Ryan Lance of ConocoPhillips: “...in any M&A we look at how much
    barrels can be profitably produced at mid-cycle prices”.
    valuation  SEC definition of proved reserves:
    Proved oil and gas reserves — Proved oil and gas reserves are the
    estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids
    which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable
    certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs
    under existing economic and operating conditions, i.e., prices and
    costs as of the date the estimate is made.
    The larger the company, the more 1 BOE is worth

    Not all proved


    reserves are
    equal

    Price of 1 BOE of proved reserves implied in market capitalization is correlated with company size.
    Smallest players (proved reserves >100 MMBOE) can be valued at 1 BOE = 2 USD while larger peers
    closer to 1 BOE = 18 USD.
    Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX) are integrated producers. They’re supposed to add more value
    and their BOEs price’s at the top. The largest pure producer is ConocoPhillips (COP).
    Other factors include market sentiment towards energy, oil/gas mix in reserves, basins where assets are
    located.
    No consistency in Standardized Measure

    Standardized
    measure is not
    consistent
    among peers
    and doesn’t
    reflect price in
    M&A
    To help outsiders compare oil and gas companies, the SEC requires disclosure of Standardized Measure (SM) –
    future after tax cash flows from proved reserves discounted at 10%. PV-10 is a similar measure but before tax.
    Price of 1 BOE of proved reserves implied in SM is not indicative of market pricing or company valuation during
    M&A.
    (Definition of Standardized Measure – The present value of estimated future net revenue to be generated from
    the production of proved reserves, determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC (using
    prices and costs in effect as of the date of estimation), less future development, production and income tax
    expenses, and discounted at 10% per annum to reflect the timing of future net revenue.)
    Larger size brings higher valuation
    Oil companies strive to grow.
    They obtain standalone assets at reasonable prices and develop them.
    Single small operators often lack sophistication of a public company so
    more gas and liquids can be extracted from the same assets. They prefer to
    sell to smaller companies in exchange for equity because this way they can
    keep upside.
    How value is With time, proved reserves and cash flows grow significantly and the
    market begins to put higher valuations at a company’s reserves.
    created Larger companies can buy smaller peers increasing the market valuation of
    the same properties.
    Example.
    In October, 2020, Pioneer Natural Resources acquired Parsley Energy for
    $4.5 billion implying 1 BOE = 8 USD for Parsley’s proved reserves.
    In October, 2023, Pioneer Natural Resources was acquired by Exxon Mobil
    for $59.5 billion implying 1 BOE = 25 USD for Pioneer’s proved reserves.
    Case Study – Earthstone Energy

    Earthstone Energy was small and valued at 1-2 USD per BOE before 2021. Then, in 2020-2022 after a series of
    transactions the company increased proved reserves significantly. Together with improved sentiment this brought
    proved reserves valuation first to 3, then to 5 USD per 1 BOE.
    Case Study – Earthstone Energy (1)

    Earthstone Presentation for EnerCom Denver Conference,


    August 2023

    In Summer 2023, Earthstone merged with a peer Novo (1/3 of its size) and then was acquired by Permian Resources.
    In Novo deal, 1 BOE = 14 USD. In Earthstone acquisition by Permian Resources, 1 BOE = 7 USD.

    What could be market cap in 2024?

    In 2023, Vital Energy performed 5 acquisitions which materially improve company position and move it to larger
    category based on proved reserves suggesting higher valuation per BOE.
