Adjusted net income, which excludes both the results of discontinued operations and certain other items that affect comparability of results between periods, was $709 million, or $4.52 per diluted share for the same period. Adjustments to net income were primarily attributable to a $17 million write-off of a previously suspended exploration well and $17 million of asset retirement obligation losses, with the remainder totaling $18 million before tax.

CAPITAL ALLOCATION FRAMEWORK

Murphy had approximately $1.1 billion of liquidity on December 31, 2023, with no borrowings on the $800 million senior unsecured credit facility and $317 million of cash and cash equivalents, inclusive of NCI.

In 2023, Murphy executed $500 million of debt reduction transactions through the redemption of the remaining $250 million of senior notes due 2025, as well as the aggregate tender offer of $250 million of senior notes due 2027, 2028 and 2029.

At the end of the fourth quarter, Murphy’s total debt was reduced to $1.3 billion, and consisted of long-term, fixed-rate notes with a weighted average maturity of 8.1 years and a weighted average coupon of 6.2 percent.

During the fourth quarter, Murphy repurchased $75 million, or 1.7 million shares, at an average price of $43.42 per share. This brings the 2023 total share repurchases to $150 million, or 3.4 million shares, at an average price of $43.96 per share, reflecting a 2 percent total reduction in share count for the year. As of year-end 2023, Murphy had $450 million remaining under the share repurchase authorization and 152.7 million shares outstanding.

“I am pleased our ongoing debt reduction efforts are enhancing our balance sheet and extending our debt maturity profile, with the next tranche of senior notes not due until December 2027,” said Jenkins. “Since announcing our capital allocation framework in August 2022, we have reduced long-term debt by approximately $950 million, repurchased $150 million of shares and increased the quarterly dividend by 20 percent. This is an incredible accomplishment and reflects Murphy’s steady commitment to enhance shareholder value.”

YEAR-END 2023 PROVED RESERVES

After producing 68 MMBOE for the year, Murphy’s preliminary year-end 2023 proved reserves were 724 MMBOE, consisting of 36 percent oil and 41 percent liquids. Total reserve replacement was 139 percent in 2023.

The company maintained a consistent reserve life of nearly 11 years with 57 percent proved developed reserves.

OPERATIONS SUMMARY

Onshore

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the onshore business produced approximately 100 MBOEPD, which included 30 percent liquids volumes.

Eagle Ford Shale – Fourth quarter production averaged 31 MBOEPD with 71 percent oil volumes and 86 percent liquids volumes. Three non-operated wells were brought online in Tilden during the quarter as planned.

Tupper Montney – Natural gas production averaged 386 million cubic feet per day (MMCFD) in the fourth quarter, with no new wells brought online.

Kaybob Duvernay – During the fourth quarter, production averaged 4 MBOEPD with 69 percent liquids volumes.

Offshore

Excluding NCI, in the fourth quarter of 2023, the offshore business produced approximately 84 MBOEPD, which included 82 percent oil.

Gulf of Mexico – Production averaged approximately 81 MBOEPD, consisting of 81 percent oil during the fourth quarter. As planned, Murphy brought online the Dalmatian #1 (Desoto Canyon 90) well and drilled and completed the Marmalard #3 (Mississippi Canyon 255) well during the quarter.

Canada – In the fourth quarter, production averaged nearly 4 MBOEPD, consisting of 100 percent oil. The asset life extension project was completed for the non-operated Terra Nova floating, production, storage and offloading vessel, and production from the field resumed during the quarter with volumes expected to ramp up over the coming months.

EXPLORATION

Gulf of Mexico – During the quarter, Murphy concluded drilling the Oso #1 (Atwater Valley 138) exploration well. The well encountered non-commercial hydrocarbons and has been plugged and abandoned. Approximately $62 million of the net well cost before tax was expensed in the fourth quarter. Murphy, as operator, holds a 33.34 percent working interest in the well.

2024 CAPITAL EXPENDITURE AND PRODUCTION GUIDANCE

The 2024 CAPEX plan is expected to be in the range of $920 million to $1.02 billion. Full year 2024 production is expected to be in the range of 180 to 188 MBOEPD, consisting of approximately 96 MBOPD oil and 106 MBOEPD liquids volumes, equating to 52 percent oil and 58 percent liquids volumes, respectively. This forecast includes approximately 2 MBOEPD of assumed annualized Gulf of Mexico storm downtime and accounts for the 2023 divestiture of 1.5 MBOEPD from non-core onshore Canada assets.

Production for first quarter 2024 is estimated to be in the range of 163 to 171 MBOEPD with 89 MBOPD, or 53 percent, oil volumes. This range is impacted by 13 MBOEPD of total Gulf of Mexico downtime, as well as 2 MBOEPD of onshore downtime. Gulf of Mexico downtime in the first quarter includes 6 MBOEPD associated with wells currently offline that are scheduled for workovers and will return to production in the first half of this year. Also included is 5 MBOEPD for planned facility and downstream maintenance, as well as 2 MBOEPD of downtime to repair damaged subsea equipment in the Mormont field. Both production and CAPEX guidance ranges exclude Gulf of Mexico NCI.

Onshore

Approximately $320 million of Murphy’s 2024 CAPEX is allocated to the Eagle Ford Shale, with approximately $240 million designated to drill 30 and bring online 19 operated wells, as well as drill 23 and bring online 18 non-operated wells. The remaining $80 million will support field development.

Murphy plans to spend $130 million of its 2024 CAPEX in Canada onshore. Approximately $65 million is allocated to the Tupper Montney to drill 9 and bring online 13 operated wells, with $35 million allocated to the Kaybob Duvernay to drill 4 and bring online 3 operated wells. The remaining $30 million will support field development in both areas.

Note: All well counts are shown gross. Eagle Ford Shale non-operated working interest averages 41 percent.

Offshore

Murphy plans to spend approximately $300 million of its 2024 CAPEX in the Gulf of Mexico for development drilling and field development projects. This plan includes operated and non-operated subsea tiebacks throughout the year, as well as advancing the non-operated St. Malo waterflood project ahead of its startup in 2024.

Murphy has allocated approximately $25 million of CAPEX to Canada offshore in 2024, with the majority designated for non-operated Hibernia development drilling.

Approximately $45 million of CAPEX has been allocated to other offshore development in 2024, primarily for initial Lac Da Vang field development activities in Vietnam.

Exploration

The company has allocated $120 million to its 2024 exploration program, which includes drilling two exploration wells in Vietnam and two exploration wells in the Gulf of Mexico.

Other

Other capital of approximately $30 million, or 3 percent of CAPEX, consists of capitalized interest costs and corporate CAPEX.

“We are positioned for another great year at Murphy as we continue to Delever, Execute, Explore, Return. With our consistent capital discipline, I look forward to reaching our long-term debt goal of $1.0 billion while continuing to reward shareholders through dividend increases and share repurchases,” said Jenkins.

Detailed guidance for the first quarter and full year 2024 is contained in the attached schedules.

FIXED PRICE FORWARD SALES CONTRACTS

Murphy maintains fixed price forward sales contracts in Canada to lessen its dependence on variable AECO prices. These contracts are for physical delivery of natural gas volumes at a fixed price, with no mark-to-market income adjustments. Details for the current fixed price contracts can be found in the attached schedules.

¹In accordance with GAAP, Murphy reports the 100 percent interest, including a 20 percent noncontrolling interest (NCI), in its subsidiary, MP Gulf of Mexico, LLC (MP GOM). The GAAP financials include the NCI portion of revenue, costs, assets and liabilities and cash flows. Unless otherwise noted, the financial and operating highlights and metrics discussed in this news release, but not the accompanying schedules, exclude the NCI, thereby representing only the amounts attributable to Murphy.

CAPITAL ALLOCATION FRAMEWORK

This news release contains references to the company’s capital allocation framework and adjusted free cash flow. As previously disclosed, the capital allocation framework defines Murphy 1.0 as when long-term debt exceeds $1.8 billion. At such time, adjusted free cash flow is allocated to long-term debt reduction while the company continues to support the quarterly dividend. The company reaches Murphy 2.0 when long-term debt is between $1.0 billion and $1.8 billion. At such time, approximately 75 percent of adjusted free cash flow is allocated to debt reduction, with the remaining 25 percent distributed to shareholders through share buybacks and potential dividend increases. When long-term debt is at or below $1.0 billion, the company is in Murphy 3.0 and begins allocating 50 percent of adjusted free cash flow to the balance sheet, with a minimum of 50 percent of adjusted free cash flow allocated to share buybacks and potential dividend increases.

Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations before working capital change, less capital expenditures, distributions to NCI and projected payments, quarterly dividend and accretive acquisitions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Presented above is a reconciliation of Net income to Adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to Murphy. Adjusted net income excludes certain items that management believes affect the comparability of results between periods. Management believes this is important information to provide because it is used by management to evaluate the Company’s operational performance and trends between periods and relative to its industry competitors. Management also believes this information may be useful to investors and analysts to gain a better understanding of the Company’s financial results. Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered a substitute for Net income as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The pretax and income tax impacts for adjustments shown above are as follows by area of operations and exclude the share attributable to non-controlling interests.
