This is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to the Non-GAAP Reconciliation section. |
Chad L. Stephens, President and CEO, commented, “I am pleased to report another outstanding quarter of financial results including adjusted EBITDA of $7.2 million, a 22% increase over the prior sequential quarter. I would like to thank all of the PHX employees for their hard work that helped the company achieve these excellent third quarter 2022 results.
Consistent with our first and second quarter of 2022 results, we reported an increase in royalty volumes and a further decrease in working interest volumes. This is in line with our corporate strategy. We continue to allocate 100% of our capital to acquiring minerals in the core of the Haynesville in Louisiana and the SCOOP in Southern Oklahoma in high rock quality areas under well capitalized active operators, assuring us of near-term line of sight development. We are keenly focused on executing a successful acquisition strategy and expect our royalty volumes will continue to increase on an annual basis.
In our third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022, and including through Aug. 4th, we have closed on a total of $18.0 million in additional minerals located primarily in the Haynesville with line-of-sight development, which should continue to drive our growing royalty volumes. This brings our fiscal 2022 acquisition program to approximately $42 million. There continues to be a strong set of acquisition opportunities in front of us.
Lastly, I’d like to announce that during our third fiscal quarter we opened our new corporate headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas. This move places our senior management team at the epicenter of the mineral space. We will retain our offices in Oklahoma City where our accounting and technical staff are located and do not anticipate any disruption to the business.

Reports Third Fiscal Quarter 2022 Results …cont.
THIRD FISCAL QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2022, RESULTS
The Company recorded third fiscal quarter 2022 net income of $8,589,010, or $0.25 per share, as compared to a net loss of ($1,356,594), or ($0.05) per share, in the third fiscal quarter 2021. The change in net income was principally the result of increased natural gas, oil and NGL sales, decreased losses associated with our hedge contracts and increased gains on asset sales, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative costs, or G&A, and income tax expense.
Natural gas, oil and NGL revenue increased $8,661,748, or 79%, for the third quarter 2022, compared to the corresponding 2021 quarter due to increases in natural gas, oil and NGL prices of 105%, 65% and 56%, respectively, and an increase in natural gas volumes of 1%, partially offset by a decrease in oil and NGL volumes of 12% and 15%, respectively.
The production increase in royalty volumes during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, resulted from new wells associated with 2021 and 2022 acquisitions in the Haynesville Shale and SCOOP plays coming online. The decrease in working interest volumes resulted from the divestiture of low-value legacy working interests in Oklahoma and the Fayetteville Shale in Arkansas, naturally declining production in high-interest wells in the Arkoma Stack and STACK plays, and legacy wells shut in in the Eagle Ford play while the operator completes new offset wells.
The Company had a net loss on derivative contracts of ($2,387,226) in the third fiscal 2022 quarter, as compared to a net loss of ($5,487,483) in the third fiscal 2021 quarter, of which ($5,670,147) is a realized loss and $3,282,921 is an unrealized gain with respect to the third fiscal 2022 quarter. Realized net loss on derivative contracts for the third fiscal 2022 quarter excludes $1,284,024 of cash paid to settle off-market derivative contracts. The change in net loss on derivative contracts was due to the Company’s settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in June 30, 2022, pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.
The 10% increase in total cost per Mcfe in the third fiscal 2022 quarter, relative to the third fiscal 2021 quarter, was primarily driven by an increase in G&A and production taxes. G&A increased $602,510, or 26%, in the third fiscal 2022 quarter, compared to the corresponding 2021 quarter due to legal expenses associated with reincorporating in the state of Delaware, increased transaction activity and restricted stock expense. Production taxes increased $328,339, or 55%, due to increase in natural gas, oil and NGL revenue, but decreased as a percent of natural gas, oil and NGL revenue in the third fiscal 2022 quarter, compared to the corresponding 2021 quarter from 5.5% to 4.7%.
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022, RESULTS
The Company recorded net income of $11,250,804, or $0.33 per share, in the fiscal nine-month period ended June 30, 2022 (the “fiscal nine-month 2022 period”), as compared to a net loss of ($2,453,037), or ($0.10) per share, in the corresponding 2021 period. The change in net income was principally the result of increased natural gas, oil and NGL sales, gains on asset sales and lease bonuses and rental income, and decreased DD&A, partially offset by an increase in losses on derivative contracts, production taxes, G&A and income tax expense.
Natural gas, oil and NGL sales increased $22,361,973, or 87%, for the fiscal nine-month 2022 period, compared to the corresponding 2021 period, due to increases in natural gas, oil and NGL prices of 103%, 71% and 74%, respectively, and an increase in natural gas volumes of 6%, partially offset by a decrease in oil and NGL volumes of 13% and 1%, respectively.
Natural gas volumes increased during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of new wells associated with recent acquisitions in the Haynesville Shale and SCOOP plays coming online. These gas volumes were partially offset by naturally declining production in high-interest wells in the Arkoma Stack and divestitures in the Fayetteville. NGL production decreased slightly as a result of naturally declining production from liquids-rich gas wells in the STACK. The decrease in oil production was a result of naturally declining production in working interest wells and the Company’s strategy of no longer participating with working interests in new drilling in the Eagle Ford play and reduced drilling activity of royalty wells in the Bakken play, as well as naturally declining production in high-interest wells brought online in the STACK during fiscal year 2021. Oil production decreases were partially offset by new wells in the SCOOP.
The Company had a net loss on derivative contracts of ($12,534,464) in the fiscal nine-month 2022 period, as compared to a net loss of ($8,089,662) in the corresponding 2021 period, of which ($8,595,246) is a realized loss and ($3,939,218) is an unrealized loss with respect to the fiscal nine-month 2022 period. Realized net loss on derivative contracts for the fiscal nine-month 2022 period excludes $6,465,597 of cash paid to settle off-market derivative contracts. The change in net loss on derivative contracts was due to the Company’s settlements of natural gas and oil collars and fixed price swaps and the change in valuation caused by the difference in June 30, 2022, pricing relative to the strike price on open derivative contracts.

PHX Minerals Inc.
Reports Third Fiscal Quarter 2022 Results …cont.
The 8% increase in total cost per Mcfe in the fiscal nine-month 2022 period, relative to the corresponding 2021 period, was primarily driven by an increase in G&A and production taxes, partially offset by a decrease in DD&A. G&A increased $1,651,758, or 27%, in the fiscal nine-month 2022 period, compared to the corresponding 2021 period due to legal expenses associated with reincorporating in the state of Delaware, increased transaction activity and restricted stock expense. Production taxes increased $958,499, or 75%, due to increase in natural gas, oil and NGL revenue, but decreased as a percent of natural gas, oil and NGL revenue in the nine-month 2022 period, compared to the corresponding 2021 period from 5.1% to 4.8%. DD&A decreased $448,465, or 7%, in the fiscal nine-month 2022 period to $0.82 per Mcfe, as compared to $0.90 per Mcfe in the corresponding 2021 period. Of the DD&A decrease, $587,155 was a result of an $0.08 decrease in the DD&A rate per Mcfe, partially offset by an increase of $138,690 resulting from production increasing 2% in the fiscal nine-month 2022 period, compared to the corresponding 2021 period. The DD&A rate per Mcfe decrease was mainly due to an increase in reserves during the fiscal nine-month 2022 period, as compared to the corresponding 2021 period.

During the third fiscal quarter of 2022, the Company converted 96 gross (0.25 net) wells to producing status, including 39 gross (0.19 net) in the SCOOP and 12 gross (0.03 net) in the Haynesville, compared to 108 gross (0.48 net) wells, including 35 gross (0.04 net) in the SCOOP and 31 gross (0.33 net) in the Haynesville, during the second fiscal quarter of 2022.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation
This press release includes certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including Regulation G. These non-GAAP financial measures are calculated using GAAP amounts in the Company’s financial statements. These measures, detailed below, are provided in addition to, not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes thereto), included in the Company’s SEC filings and posted on its website.
Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
We define “adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, excluding unrealized gains (losses) on derivatives and gains (losses) on asset sales and including cash receipts from (payments on) off-market derivatives and restricted stock and deferred directors’ expense. We have included a presentation of adjusted EBITDA because we recognize that certain investors consider this amount to be a useful means of measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations and evaluating our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies.

“Debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM)” is defined as the ratio of long-term debt to adjusted EBITDA on a trailing 12-month (TTM) basis. We have included a presentation of debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) because we recognize that certain investors consider such ratios to be useful means of measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations and for evaluating our financial performance. The debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) ratio has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies. The following table provides a presentation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA on a TTM basis and of the resulting debt to adjusted EBITDA (TTM) ratio:

Pretax Net Income (Loss) Excluding Non-cash Derivative Gains (Losses) Reconciliation
“Pretax net income (loss) excluding non-cash derivative gains (losses)” is defined as earnings before taxes, excluding unrealized gains (losses) on derivatives. We have included a presentation of pretax net income (loss) excluding non-cash derivative gains (losses) because we recognize that certain investors consider this amount to be a useful means of measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations and evaluating our financial performance. Pretax net income (loss) excluding non-cash derivative gains (losses) has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of pretax net income (loss) excluding non-cash derivative gains (losses) may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies.

Exhibit 99.2 PHX MINERALS Investor Presentation August 2022
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell, a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a recommendation to purchase any security of PHX Minerals Inc. (“PHX” or the “Company”). No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this presentation that address activities, events or developments that PHX Minerals Inc. (“PHX” or the “Company”) expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward looking statements. The words “anticipates”, “plans”, “estimates”, “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “will”, “should”, “may” and similar expressions may be used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to: our ability to execute our business strategies; the volatility of realized natural gas and oil prices; the level of production on our properties; estimates of quantities of natural gas, oil and NGL reserves and their values; general economic or industry conditions; legislation or regulatory requirements; conditions of the securities markets; our ability to raise capital; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; financial or political instability; acts of war or terrorism; title defects in the properties in which we invest; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory or technical factors affecting our properties, operations or prices. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in these and other forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company can give no assurance such statements will prove to be correct. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. These forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause the results to differ materially from those expected by the Company’s management. Information concerning these risks and other factors can be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, available on the Company's website or the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Readers are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this presentation are made as of the date hereof, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update the forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA and discretionary cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP measures that are used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. PHX defines “adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, excluding unrealized gains (losses) on derivatives and gains (losses) on asset sales and including cash receipts from (payments on) off-market derivatives and restricted stock and deferred directors’ expense. PHX defines “discretionary cash flow” as Adjusted EBITDA minus interest expense plus gain on sale. PHX references Adjusted EBITDA and discretionary cash flow in this presentation because it recognizes that certain investors consider Adjusted EBITDA and discretionary cash flow useful means of measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations and evaluating our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and discretionary cash flow have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s calculations of Adjusted EBITDA or discretionary cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Oil and Gas Reserves The SEC generally permits oil and gas companies, in filings made with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are reserve estimates that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, and certain probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. The Company discloses only estimated proved reserves in its filings with the SEC. The Company’s estimated proved reserves as of September 30, 2020, referenced in this presentation were prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton, an independent engineering firm, and comply with definitions promulgated by the SEC. Additional information on the Company’s estimated proved reserves is contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC. PHX MINERALS 2
