Amplify Exits Haynesville and Cotton Valley

Thursday,October 30,2025

Amplify Energy announced a series of transactions that will result in a complete exit from its interests in East Texas for total anticipated combined consideration of $127.5 million.

The transactions include two components. First, Amplify closed the sale of its remaining interest in certain units with rights in the Haynesville Basin in Harrison County, Texas, generating $5.5 million of net proceeds. That transaction closed on October 24, 2025.

Second, Amplify entered into a definitive agreement to sell its remaining Haynesville and Cotton Valley interests for a contract price of $122.0 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The Company expects this transaction to close by the end of the fourth quarter.

Together, the transactions represent a full monetization of Amplify’s Haynesville and Cotton Valley position and are a key step in management’s strategic plan to simplify the portfolio and enhance liquidity.

Amplify intends to use proceeds from the transactions to pay down debt, which management believes will improve the Company’s balance sheet and allow for greater focus on its highest-upside opportunities. Following the closing of the East Texas Transaction, Amplify also expects to materially reduce G&A costs.

CEO Dan Furbee said the transactions are consistent with Amplify’s strategy of simplifying the portfolio, enhancing liquidity, and concentrating resources on unlocking value across the Company’s most promising areas, including Beta and Bairoil.

TenOaks Energy Advisors served as financial advisor to Amplify.
