Kolibri Global Energy (NASDAQ:KGEI) Issues Quarterly Earnings Results

Kolibri Global Energy (NASDAQ:KGEI) announced its quarterly earnings data on Friday. The company reported $0.15 EPS for the quarter, meeting analysts’ consensus estimates of $0.15, Zacks reports. Kolibri Global Energy had a return on equity of 10.93% and a net margin of 26.87%.

Here are the key takeaways from Kolibri Global Energy’s conference call:

• Current production has risen to approximately 5,700 BOE per day with new wells online, supporting management’s expectation of stronger cash flow into year-end and next year. The company also reported $15.4 million of net debt and $19.5 million of available borrowing capacity.
• Kolibri reported a strong early performance from its first False Caney well, a formation not yet included in its reserves. Management believes the interval may extend across much of its acreage and could expand future drilling opportunities, though results are still early.
• Third-quarter revenue rose 22% to $18.3 million and adjusted EBITDA increased 20% to $13.3 million, largely on higher prices; however, average production fell 9% year over year and net income was flat at $3.6 million. For the first nine months, revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and net income were all higher year over year.
• Operating expense per BOE increased 14% year over year in the quarter, reflecting higher severance taxes, workover costs, and chemical costs. Management said it expects to finish within its prior production guidance range, likely toward the lower end because new wells began producing later than anticipated.
