MANAGEMENT
COMMENTARY
Ryan
Smith, U.S. Energy’s Chief Executive Officer, commented “We are pleased to report strong operational performance during the
second quarter of 2023, reflecting the dedication and hard work of the U.S. Energy team. Our focus on increased efficiency resulted in
solid production growth, demonstrating our commitment to delivering value to our shareholders. Sequentially, compared to first quarter
2023, oil volumes were up 26% and lease operating expenses per unit were down 24%, providing further evidence that the Company has successfully
integrated its previous acquisitions and is benefitting from earlier capital allocation decisions across its asset base.
“The
U.S. Energy platform continues to provide geographic and commodity price diversity, enabling us to navigate various market conditions.
Further, the low decline rates of our assets allow us to allocate capital flexibly, investing both in asset-level projects that offer
strong economic returns as well as expanded shareholder returns. We are pleased with the initial results of our newly implemented share
repurchase program and going forward see immediate value in allocating a higher portion of the Company’s free cash flow towards
accelerating the program. As we move forward, we maintain our commitment to prudent capital allocation and disciplined investment, both
in our day-to-day operations and potential M&A opportunities.”

UPDATE
During
the second quarter of 2023, the Company produced 178,303 Boe, or an average of 1,959 Boe/d, a 10% increase compared to 162,230 Boe, or

SECOND
QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Total
oil and gas sales during the second quarter of 2023 were approximately $8.0 million, compared to $13.5 million in the second quarter
of 2022. The decline in revenue was primarily due to a 46% decline in realized prices. Sales from oil production represented 88% of total
revenue during the quarter, up from 84% in the second quarter of 2022.
Lease
operating expense (“LOE”) for the second quarter of 2023 was approximately $3.9 million, or $21.75 per Boe, as compared to
$4.6 million, or $28.61 per Boe, in the seconds quarter of 2022. The decrease in LOE was due primarily to the successful integration
of acquired assets and the completion of necessary workover programs.
Severance
and Ad Valorem taxes in the second quarter of 2023 were approximately $0.5 million, as compared to approximately $0.9 million in the
second quarter of 2022.
Cash
general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were approximately $2.8 million during the second quarter of 2023, as compared
to approximately $2.0 million during the prior period. The increase in G&A was due to professional fees incurred during the quarter
related to finalizing our annual audit.
Adjusted
EBITDA, excluding the impact of hedges, was $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $5.1 million in
the second quarter of 2022. The Company reported a net loss of $2.5 million, or a loss of $0.10 per diluted share, in the second quarter
of 2023, compared to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.
SHAREHOLDER
RETURNS UPDATE
Consistent
with the Company’s shareholder returns strategy, during the second quarter of 2023, the Company announced that its board of directors
authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may purchase up to $5.0 million of its outstanding shares of common stock
in the open market, in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934.
During
the second quarter of 2023, U.S. Energy repurchased 163,300 shares of common stock at an average share price of $1.48 for a total cost
of approximately $0.2 million. U.S. Energy intends to purchase common stock under the common stock repurchase program opportunistically
with cash on hand, free cash flow from operations and proceeds from potential liquidity events such as the sale of assets. Any common
stock purchased as part of this program will be retired.
Additionally,
the Company’s board of directors paid a $0.0225 per share dividend to shareholders of record on May 19, 2023. Subsequently, the
Board of Directors has suspended the Company’s dividend payment policy, with the associated capital planned to go towards accelerating
the Company’s share repurchase program.
BALANCE
SHEET UPDATE
As
of June 30, 2023, the Company had debt outstanding of $12.0 million on its revolving credit facility with availability of $8.0 million
and a cash balance of approximately $1.2 million.

ADJUSTED
EBITDA RECONCILIATION
In
addition to our results calculated under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), in this
earnings release we also present Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a “non-GAAP financial measure” presented as supplemental
measures of the Company’s performance. It is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States, or GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), plus net interest expense, net unrealized loss (gain) on change
in fair value of derivatives, income tax (benefit) expense, deferred income taxes, depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization,
one-time costs associated with completed transactions and the associated assumed derivative contracts, non-cash share-based compensation,
transaction related expenses, transaction related acquired realized derivative loss (gain), and loss (gain) on marketable securities.
Company management believes this presentation is relevant and useful because it helps investors understand U.S. Energy’s operating
performance and makes it easier to compare its results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures.
Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it provides additional useful information to investors due to the various noncash items
during the period. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute
for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash expenditures,
or future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements
for, working capital needs; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to
service interest or principal payments, on debt or cash income tax payments; although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges,
the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash
requirements for such replacements; and other companies in this industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than the Company does,
limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
The
Company’s presentation of this measure should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual
or nonrecurring items. We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable
GAAP measure, below. We encourage investors and others to review our business, results of operations, and financial information in their
entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view this non-GAAP measure in conjunction with the most directly comparable
GAAP financial measure.
