Jericho Oil Announces 33% 2018 Total Production Growth

Company Production Hits an All-Time Yearly Record, Reduced Operating Expenses by 30%

TULSA, OK, Feb. 28, 2019 – Jericho Oil Corporation (“Jericho”) (TSX-V: JCO; OTC PINK: JROOF) announces that preliminary 2018 full-year partnership production totaled approximately 297,000 barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”) up 33% from 2017 full-year partnership production of 222,000 BOE.  The Company’s 2018 partnership production is an all-time yearly high.

In addition to record production, the Company continued to drive down production operating expenses with an approximately $17.00 / BOE cost in 2018, a reduction of 30% from the last year. A combination of lower absolute expenses and efficient production growth from our STACK asset produced outstanding per unit results for Jericho shareholders further demonstrating the dedication of our team and the quality of our world-class STACK asset.

In 2019, Jericho is committed to maintaining balance sheet and capital spend flexibility (with low leverage and a prudent hedging program), allocating capital based on strategic and rate-of-return metrics, prioritizing the Company’s high-return STACK asset and potential acquisition opportunities near our concentrated position.  A continued improvement in commodity prices through the remainder of Q1 2019 will see Jericho move back into a development mode and also accelerate its return to production program for shut-in wells in its existing fields. 

Industry activity has focused on the low-cost, high-return Osage and Meramec formations within the STACK play of Oklahoma. Deep-pocketed public operators including ExxonMobil, Chesapeake Energy, Sandridge Energy and Chaparral Energy continue to put considerable capital resources in and around Jericho’s largely held-by-production STACK acreage position.  To-date, the Company has participated in multiple successful STACK wells with many of our offset operators, gleaning valuable information that drives our confidence in the underlying value of our investment.    

“These outstanding and record results confirm our 2018 strategy to successfully prove and develop our premier STACK acreage position,” stated Brian Williamson, CEO of Jericho Oil, adding, “the resulting production growth provides our shareholders confidence in the exceptional quality of our high-impact STACK resource.  Looking forward to 2019, we are excited in our unique ability to drive further competitive performance through the quality of our investments and our capital and operating discipline. While we are pleased with our 2018 results, we were just starting to see our patience be rewarded as we began to drill our STACK asset, return existing shut-in wells to production and move to develop some of our other high potential assets when oil prices turned down 40% in the end of 2018.  We are hopeful that oil prices will continue their upward trend and provide us the opportunity to expand upon 2018’s success.”

In addition to Jericho’s steady base of low-decline production, its STACK JV has an interest in four currently producing Osage and Meramec formation wells.

Jericho also announces that effective March 1, 2019, Brian Williamson, CEO, assumes the additional position of President and Ben Holman, CFO, assumes the additional position of Secretary. The roles of President and Secretary were previously held by Allen Wilson, Jericho’s founder, who continues with the Company as a director, consultant and shareholder.

Continued Offset Investment and Activity Surrounds Jericho’s STACK Position

Geology Team Continues Study of STACK Rocks Ahead of Next Drilling Program

TULSA, OK, and VANCOUVER, BC, June 3, 2019 – Jericho Oil Corporation (“Jericho”) (TSX-V: JCO; OTC PINK: JROOF) announces positive offset operator well results in conjunction with our Geology Team’s revealing geochemical study.

Jericho’s strategy of steady patience since entering the prolific, low-cost STACK Play of Oklahoma in September 2017 continues to build Company confidence.  With a primary focus on the Osage formation, we saw surrounding activity from multiple, well-known offset operators converge upon our position allowing our Company to prudently evaluate production results and compare them against various drilling and completion techniques observed. Public production data from recent horizontal wells targeting the Osage in the Northern STACK have impressive results which are associated with focused lateral landing and improved stimulation design. Wells completed by Gastar (LUKE 1909 21-1LOH, BIGGIO 1909 7-1LOH), Fairway (BURSON 1-33H) and Alta Mesa (TERMINUS 2109 3-10MH) surround the Company acreage with a combined average 6-month cumulative oil production of 63,000 barrels of oil demonstrating the vast potential for high-return wells in the Osage formation on Company acreage.

As a result, we are very pleased with the validation of our resource and acreage value on the backs of strong well results and offset operator capital.  While the pace of operated drilling activity by Jericho has been slow, we believe this is for good reason and a part of our overall strategy for Jericho’s long-term shareholder base.  Allowing surrounding operators to spend their capital while converging upon our position will yield the strongest return on investment for Jericho as we minimize our capital outlay.

Jericho’s Geochemical Study

Jericho’s Geology Team, in conjunction with its neighboring operators, have been working with Advanced Hydrocarbon Stratigraphy (“AHS”) over the last several months to harvest additional subsurface data to analyze the potential of various STACK formations around its Northern Stack acreage. AHS has worked with leading companies in the Northern STACK identifying the productive nature of the Meramec and Osagean deposits.

Utilizing cuttings captured during the drilling process, AHS’ technology allows for a high-resolution image indicating changes in hydrocarbon content, permeability and mechanical strength for better understanding of perforation cluster placement and stimulation consideration.

Shane Matson, Jericho’s Lead Geologist noted, “In the most recent well analysis adjacent to Jericho’s Acreage AHS’ testing shows outstanding oil storage capacity, high permeability and outstanding rock mechanics.”

This data will be a part of our location selection process as we consider a new drilling program for the second half of 2019.   Mike Smith, PhD, President of AHS commented “significant producible Hydrocarbons, chiefly oil, and remarkably good quality reservoir rocks are indicated throughout the Mississippian (Meramec and Osage) in this well.” Mr. Smith also noted that “results are specific to a given location, as other well locations nearby, could have varying prognoses.  All other geological, geochemical and nearby production need to be considered in any evaluation.”

Jericho’s CEO, Brian Williamson, said, “Our geology team is all about data capture and data sharing.  The Northern Stack needs good wells in all formations and cooperation with our neighbors is key.  Strong results across the operating teams is good for the basin and ultimately all STACK value.  Jericho holds ~16,000 acres in the North STACK Play and is looking to grow that position as well as considering new drilling in the second half of 2019.” Mr. Williamson further stated, “Our geology team continues to do an outstanding job of digging, digesting and extrapolating data into usable information for our organization.  We look forward to the selection of future STACK locations.”

Mr. Williamson stated, “I look forward to updating listeners on Jericho’s solid balance sheet positioned for growth, our current operations and the state of the challenged oil and gas industry, at large. With the continued backing of key long-term shareholders, our Company has been extremely active in looking at distressed and complementary acquisition opportunities that would provide significant growth, value creation and potential synergies for Jericho. Given investor apathy towards many oil companies, valuations remain well below what many view as sustainable and the current lack of attention and investment dollars for the space presents significant dislocations in value. We are well suited to take advantage during these turbulent times.”

Jericho Oil Publishes CEO Letter Addressing Current Market Conditions

$

TULSA, OK, and VANCOUVER, BC, March 10, 2020 – Jericho Oil Corporation (“Jericho” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: JCO; OTC PINK: JROOF) today has published a letter to shareholders from Brian Williamson, CEO:

I felt it was important, particularly at this moment in time, to apprise our shareholders of Jericho’s plan going forward as we face these difficult market conditions.

Over the past several weeks, we have seen negative effects both in the oil industry, and the market at large, as the world’s largest consumers of oil have dramatically slowed economic activity while they look to contain and manage the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak.  As the world works to combat this virus and contain the spread, the oil market has been doubly challenged by a simultaneous price war and supply shock.

OPEC+, led by Saudi Arabia and Russia failed to broker an agreement on constraining output in the face of lower global demand to support prices.  This move, by all accounts, has essentially started an oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia with far-reaching consequences in the U.S.  As a result, we have seen the price of oil collapse into the $30’s (WTI) with no line of sight on a quick recovery.  How low the price goes and how long it stays there will determine the impact on future supply and demand.  All these issues combined will help determine and guide Jericho’s future strategy.

Jericho’s team has had in place, a contingency plan that was generated back in 2016 when the market saw similar pricing.  Although we had hoped to never need to implement, we have prepared for this and are now shifting it into place to meet the new realities of the industry.  We currently believe that our plan should allow our operating joint ventures to remain cash flow neutral and still be deal-opportunistic, leaving Jericho in an advantaged position moving forward. As has been our practice, we will sustain best business and safety practices while operating the company at the highest and best standards.

Sincerely,

 

Brian Williamson

Chief Executive Officer

TULSA, OK, and VANCOUVER, BC, April 23, 2020 – Jericho Oil Corporation (“Jericho”) (TSX-V: JCO) announces that it intends to raise approximately $5 Million CAD through a non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) of approximately 50,000,000 units (“Units”) at a price of C$0.10 per Unit, with each such Unit consisting of one common share of the Corporation (each, a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant”), with each Warrant being exercisable for one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.13 CAD for a period of 36 months from the date of issuance.

Net proceeds from the Offering, which is being led by existing shareholders, will be used primarily for the acquisition of assets during the current market downturn. Jericho will continue to be opportunistic in the present environment and look to acquire what it perceives to be high-quality assets in dislocated situations. While Jericho does not currently have any binding agreement to enter into any such transaction, having cash on hand will allow it to be nimble as market opportunities arise.

No finders’ fees or commissions are being paid in connection with the Offering. Closing of the Offering is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four month and one day hold period from the date of issuance.

TULSA, OK, and VANCOUVER, BC, June 12, 2020 — Further to its news release dated April 23, 2020, Jericho Oil Corporation (“Jericho”) (TSX-V: JCO) announces that it has closed a fully subscribed non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) of 50 million units (the “Units”) at $0.10 CAD per Unit for gross proceeds of $5 Million.

Each Unit is comprised of one Common Share (a “Share”) and one Warrant (a “Warrant”), with each Warrant being exercisable for one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.13 CAD for a period of 36 months from the date of issuance.

Net proceeds from the Offering, which was led by existing shareholders and insiders, will be used for the acquisition of assets during the current market downturn and working capital.  Jericho will seek to acquire what it believes to be high-quality assets in special situations. While Jericho does not currently have any binding agreements to enter into any such transaction, having cash on hand allows it to be nimble as opportunities may present themselves.

 Brian Williamson, CEO, said, “We are grateful for the strong support of our long term, major investors, who despite these very challenging times, share our belief that the current situation could present tremendous growth opportunities for the Company.”

 All securities issued pursuant to the Offering are subject to a four month and one day hold period from the date of issuance. As a result, all Shares and Warrants that were issued are subject to a hold period expiring October 13, 2020.  The Offering remains subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V“). No finders’ fees or commissions were paid in connection with the Offering.

Insiders of Jericho acquired a total of 17,197,023 Units in the Offering (the “Insider Participation“). The Insider Participation is exempt from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“) by virtue of the exemptions contained in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 based on that the fair market value of such Insider Participation does not exceed 25% of Jericho’s market capitalization.

The securities referred to herein will not be or have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
