Again, during this period, we realized short-term results while making long-term investments for the future – always operating within and funded by our own cashflow. We believe this relentless and disciplined drive to become better in every way is a powerful intangible asset that differentiates GeoPark and positions us to become the leading Latin American independent. We are excited by the big new high potential acreage we acquired surrounding the rich Llanos 34 block – and honored to be partnering with and operating for the national oil company of Colombia in its home basin. We now have 5 drilling rigs operating across our asset platform – and are encouraged about completing 2019 with even better results and extending our growth track-record to a hard-earned 17^th year. From our shareholders’ perspective, GeoPark has been returning value to shareholders by its leading share price performance (up more than 330% since 2017) and an ambitious share buyback program during the year – which has now been expanded to include our first quarterly cash dividend.”

1. Includes government royalties paid in kind in Colombia for approximately 1,419, 1,196 and 1,175 bopd in 3Q2019, 2Q2019 and 3Q2018 respectively. No royalties were paid in kind in Chile, Brazil or Argentina.
2. Production and operating costs include operating costs, royalties paid in cash and share-based payments.
3. Capital expenditures is net of $7.1 million collected in 3Q2019 related to remaining amounts for the divestiture of the La Cuerva and Yamu blocks that was completed on July 1, 2019.

Production: Oil and gas production grew by 6% to 39,619 boepd in 3Q2019 due to increased production in Colombia, Chile and Argentina, partially offset by lower production in Brazil. Adjusting for the sale of the La Cuerva and Yamu blocks in Colombia (1,007 bopd in 3Q2018), the Company’s consolidated oil and gas production increased by 9% in 3Q2019 and Colombian production increased by 12%.

Oil represented 85% of total reported production compared to 84% in 3Q2018.

For further details, please refer to the 3Q2019 Operational Update published on October 17, 2019.

Reference and Realized Oil Prices: Brent oil prices averaged $62.1 per bbl in 3Q2019, 18% or $13.9 per bbl less than in 3Q2018. The realized oil price was just 14% lower at $49.3 per bbl, $7.7 per bbl lower than in 3Q2018. This significant improvement reflected both a lower Vasconia discount and real improvements in commercial and transportation discounts. Please also refer to the selling expenses section below.

The tables below provide a breakdown of Brent oil and realized oil prices in Colombia, Chile and Argentina in 3Q2019 and 3Q2018:

3Q2019 - Realized Oil Prices ($ per bbl)	Colombia	Chile	Argentina
Brent oil price	62.1	62.1	62.1
Vasconia differential	(1.7)	-	-

Revenue: Lower Brent oil prices affected consolidated revenues which decreased by 9% to $151.2 million in 3Q2019 versus $166.8 million in 3Q2018. The lower Brent oil prices were partially offset by higher deliveries and lower discounts.

Sales of crude oil: Consolidated oil revenues decreased by 9% to $138.2 million in 3Q2019, driven by a 14% fall in realized oil prices, partially offset by a 6% increase in oil deliveries. Oil revenues were 91% of total revenues in both 3Q2019 and 3Q2018.

• Colombia: In 3Q2019, oil revenues decreased by 6% to $129.0 million following lower realized oil prices, partially offset by higher deliveries. Realized prices decreased by 12% to $49.3 per bbl following 18% lower Brent oil prices, partially offset by a lower Vasconia differential and improved commercial and transportation discounts. Oil deliveries increased by 8% to 29,788 bopd. Colombian earn-out payments increased to $6.0 million in 3Q2019, compared to $5.5 million in 3Q2018.

• Chile: In 3Q2019, oil revenues decreased by 47% to $2.3 million, due to lower volumes sold and lower realized oil prices. Oil deliveries decreased by 35% to 458 bopd due to the natural decline of the fields whereas realized oil prices decreased by 19% to $54.3 per bbl, in line with lower Brent prices.
• Argentina: In 3Q2019, oil revenues decreased by 34% to $6.7 million, due to lower volumes sold and lower realized oil prices. Oil deliveries decreased by 10% to 1,490 bopd due to the natural decline of the fields whereas realized oil prices decreased by 26% to $48.9 per bbl, lower than Brent oil prices due to oil price controls implemented in the second half of 3Q2019.

Sales of gas: Consolidated gas revenues decreased by 11% to $13.0 million in 3Q2019 compared to $14.6 million in 3Q2018. Gas revenues declined due to a 15% decrease in gas prices, partially offset by a 4% increase in gas deliveries.

• Chile: In 3Q2019, gas revenues increased by 17% to $5.8 million reflecting a significant increase in gas deliveries, partially offset by lower gas prices. Deliveries increased by 60% in 3Q2019 to 15,535 mcfpd (2,589 boepd), resulting from the successful discovery and development of the Jauke gas field. Gas prices were 27% lower, or $4.1 per mcf ($24.4 per boe) in 3Q2019 due to lower methanol prices.
• Brazil: In 3Q2019, gas revenues decreased by 22% to $5.7 million, due to lower deliveries, partially offset by higher gas prices. Gas deliveries in Manati decreased by 27% to 12,428 mcfpd (2,071 boepd), resulting from lower industrial and power plant consumption and availability of other gas sources. Gas prices increased by 7% to $4.9 per mcf ($29.7 per boe), following the annual price inflation adjustment of approximately 6%, effective in January 2019.

The long-term gas sales contract in the Manati gas field contains a take or pay (ToP) clause that significantly reduces demand risk below certain levels. Net gas production during the 9M2019 period was below minimum annual ToP levels applicable for the year 2019. In case full-year 2019 production levels are below annual ToP levels, GeoPark is allowed to collect cash amounts for the difference between actual deliveries and ToP levels.

• Argentina: In 3Q2019, gas revenues decreased by 51% to $1.0 million from $2.0 million, resulting from both lower deliveries and gas prices. Deliveries decreased by 4% to 3,653 mcfpd (609 boepd) while prices fell by 49% to $2.9 per mcf ($17.4 per boe) due to lower local gas prices.

Commodity Risk Management Contracts: Consolidated commodity risk management contracts contributed a $4.4 million gain in 3Q2019 compared to a $0.6 million loss in 3Q2018. Commodity risk management contracts have two different components, a realized and an unrealized portion.

The realized gain of $1.4 million in 3Q2019 compared to a $3.4 million loss in 3Q2018 reflected Brent oil prices and commodity risk management contracts effective during the respective periods.

The unrealized gains were $3.0 million in 3Q2019 and $2.9 million in 3Q2018. Unrealized gains during 3Q2019 resulted from changes in the forward Brent oil price curve compared to June 2019.

The Company uses risk management contracts to minimize the impact of oil price fluctuations on its work program. (Refer to the "Commodity Risk Oil Management Contracts” section below for details of the contracts in place.)

Production and Operating Costs⁴: Consolidated operating costs per boe decreased by 4% to $8.1 per boe from $8.4 per boe. Overall, consolidated production and operating costs decreased by 14% to $41.7 million in 3Q2019 compared to $48.7 million in 3Q2018, as a result of lower royalties and operating costs.

The table below provides a breakdown of production and operating costs in 3Q2019 and 3Q2018:

(In millions of $)	3Q2019	3Q2018
Operating costs	26.6	27.3
Royalties	15.1	21.1
Shared based payments	-	0.3
Production and operating costs	41.7	48.7

Consolidated operating costs decreased by 3% or $0.7 million to $26.6 million in 3Q2019 compared to $27.3 million in 3Q2018, despite a 6% increase in deliveries. Consolidated operating costs per boe decreased by 4% to $8.1 in 3Q2019 compared to $8.4 in 3Q2018.

The breakdown of operating costs is as follows:

• Colombia: Operating costs per boe decreased by 10% to $5.6 in 3Q2019 compared to $6.2 in 3Q2018 mainly due to the impact of fixed costs over 8% higher deliveries and the sale of the La Cuerva and Yamu blocks⁵, mature oil fields with higher operating costs. Total operating costs decreased by 5% to $15.1 million.

• Chile: Operating costs per boe increased by 10% to $19.3 in 3Q2019 compared to $17.5 in 3Q2018, reflecting higher well-intervention activities. Total operating costs increased to $5.4 million in 3Q2019 from $3.7 million in 3Q2018.
• Brazil: Operating costs per boe increased by 7% to $5.3 in 3Q2019 compared to $4.9 in 3Q2018, mainly due to the impact of fixed costs over 22% lower deliveries in Manati and to a lesser extent, due to costs associated with initial testing activities in the Praia dos Castelhanos oil field. These were partially offset by the adoption of IFRS 16 for approximately $0.5 million (or $2.7 per boe) in 3Q2019. IFRS 16 changes the treatment and valuation of operating leases, that are, as from 2019, recorded as depreciation charges, which were recorded as operating costs in 3Q2018. Total operating costs decreased by 21% to $1.0 million in 3Q2019 from $1.3 million in 3Q2018.

• Argentina: Operating costs per boe decreased to $27.0 in 3Q2019 compared to $30.0 in 3Q2018. Total operating costs decreased by 20% to $5.1 million in 3Q2019 from $6.3 million in 3Q2018.

Consolidated royalties decreased by $6.0 million to $15.1 million in 3Q2019 compared to $21.1 million in 3Q2018, resulting from lower realized prices in 3Q2019. Consolidated royalties were 10% of revenue in 3Q2019 and 13% in 3Q2018.

Selling Expenses: Consolidated selling expenses increased by $1.1 million to $2.4 million in 3Q2019 (of which $2.1 million correspond to Colombia), compared to $1.3 million in 3Q2018.

The increase in selling expenses in Colombia reflects the difference in accounting for different points of sale and costs associated with the operation of the flowline connecting Llanos 34 block to the ODL regional pipeline. Sales at the wellhead are deducted from revenues whereas transportation costs for sales to other delivery points are accounted for as selling expenses.

Commercial and transportation discounts in Colombia improved by $2.9 per bbl during 3Q2019, positively impacting realized oil prices. This was partially offset by approximately $0.9 per bbl of higher selling expenses, thus improving net margins by approximately $2.0 per bbl. Please also refer to the "Evolution of Transportation and Commercial Discounts and Selling Expenses in Colombia” section below.

Administrative Expenses⁶: Total consolidated G&A increased by 17% to $14.5 million in 3Q2019 compared to $12.3 million in 3Q2018 due to higher staff costs associated with an increased scale of operations and other administrative costs related to new business efforts.

Geological & Geophysical Expenses⁷: Total consolidated G&G expenses increased by 9% to $4.3 million in 3Q2019 compared to $3.9 million in 3Q2018 due to an increased scale of operations and continuing investments to expand GeoPark’s technical capabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA: Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA⁸ decreased by 12% to $86.7 million. The Adjusted EBITDA per boe was $25.3 per boe in 3Q2019, compared to $30.3 per boe in 3Q2018.

By country, 3Q2019 Adjusted EBITDA was:

• Colombia: Adjusted EBITDA of $92.5 million
• Chile: Adjusted EBITDA of $1.3 million
• Brazil: Adjusted EBITDA of $2.7 million
• Argentina: Adjusted EBITDA of negative $1.7 million
• Corporate, Peru and Ecuador: Adjusted EBITDA of negative $8.1 million

The table below shows production, volumes sold and the breakdown of the most significant components of Adjusted EBITDA for 3Q2019 and 3Q2018, on a per country and per boe basis:

1. RIK (Royalties in kind). Includes royalties paid in kind in Colombia for approximately 1,419 and 1,175 bopd in 3Q2019 and 3Q2018 respectively. No royalties were paid in kind in Chile, Brazil or Argentina.
2. Conversion rate of $mcf/$boe=1/6.
3. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as if IFRS 16 has not been adopted, so the figures included in the table above for 3Q2019 figures are comparable to those of prior periods. See the "Adoption of IFRS 16” and "Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Profit (Loss) Before Income Tax” sections included in this press release.

Depreciation⁹: Consolidated depreciation charges increased by 9% to $26.5 million in 3Q2019, compared to $24.3 million in 3Q2018. The 6% increase in volumes delivered explained the change in addition to the adoption of IFRS 16.

Write-off of Unsuccessful Exploration Efforts: The consolidated write-off of unsuccessful exploration efforts was $8.4 million in 3Q2019 compared to $3.5 million in 3Q2018. Amounts recorded in 3Q2019 mainly refer to unsuccessful exploration wells and other exploration costs incurred in the CN-V (GeoPark non-operated, 50% WI) and Sierra del Nevado (GeoPark non-operated, 18% WI) blocks in Argentina.

Other Income (Expenses): Other operating expenses amounted to $1.4 million in 3Q2019, compared to $1.2 million in 3Q2018.

CONSOLIDATED NON-OPERATING RESULTS AND PROFIT FOR THE PERIOD

Financial Expenses: Net financial expenses decreased slightly to $8.6 million in 3Q2019, compared to $8.7 million in 3Q2018.

Foreign Exchange: Net foreign exchange charges were a gain of $0.8 million in 3Q2019 compared to a loss of $2.9 million in 3Q2018. The comparative period was affected by the devaluation of the Brazilian real and its impact on US dollar-denominated intercompany debt which was cancelled in 4Q2018.

Income Tax: Income tax expenses were $41.8 million in 3Q2019 compared to $29.7 million in 3Q2018, in line with higher taxable income in 3Q2019. Current income taxes accrued in 3Q2019 amounted to $25.3 million.

Profit: Profit of $6.8 million in 3Q2019 compared to $29.7 million in 3Q2018, reflecting lower operating profits mainly derived from lower Brent oil prices and higher income taxes, partially offset by lower operating costs and royalties.

BALANCE SHEET

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents totaled $81.6 million as of September 30, 2019 compared to $127.7 million as of December 31, 2018. Cash generated from operating activities equaled $156.9 million and was partially offset by cash used in investing activities of $81.1 million and in financing activities of $121.7 million.

Cash generated from operating activities was $156.9 million after income tax payments of $88.6 million paid in 1H2019.

ADOPTION OF IFRS 16

(UNAUDITED)

GeoPark adopted IFRS 16 accounting rules in January 2019, but did not restate comparative figures for 2018, as permitted by the accounting standard. IFRS 16 requires the recognition of certain charges related to operating leases as depreciation charges, that in comparative periods were recorded in production and operating costs, administrative and geophysical expenses. Please refer to Note 1 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for further details.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as if IFRS 16 had not been adopted, making the figures included in the table on page 6, "Adjusted EBITDA per boe” comparable to those of prior periods.

The following adjustments have been made to production and operating costs, administrative and geological and geophysical expenses to calculate Adjusted EBITDA:

(In millions of $)	3Q2019	9M2019
Gain (Loss)
Production and operating costs	-1.0	-2.6
Administrative expenses	-0.3	-1.5

NOTICE

Additional information about GeoPark can be found in the "Investor Support” section on the website at www.geo-park.com.

Rounding amounts and percentages: Certain amounts and percentages included in this press release have been rounded for ease of presentation. Percentage figures included in this press release have not in all cases been calculated on the basis of such rounded figures, but on the basis of such amounts prior to rounding. For this reason, certain percentage amounts in this press release may vary from those obtained by performing the same calculations using the figures in the financial statements. In addition, certain other amounts that appear in this press release may not sum due to rounding.

This press release contains certain oil and gas metrics, including information per share, Operating Netback, reserve life index and others, which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. Many of the forward- looking statements contained in this press release can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘could,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘plan,’’ ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘estimate’’ and ‘‘potential,’’ among others.

Forward-looking statements that appear in a number of places in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations, regarding various matters, including expected 2019, 2020 or future production, production growth and operating and financial performance, Operating Netback per boe and capital expenditures plan. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions, and on information currently available to the management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to various factors.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update them in light of new information or future developments or to release publicly any revisions to these statements in order to reflect later events or circumstances, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. For a discussion of the risks facing the Company which could affect whether these forward-looking statements are realized, see filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Oil and gas production figures included in this release are stated before the effect of royalties paid in kind, consumption and losses. Annual production per day is obtained by dividing total production for 365 days.

Information about oil and gas reserves: The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proven, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. GeoPark uses certain terms in this press release, such as "PRMS Reserves" that the SEC's guidelines do not permit GeoPark from including in filings with the SEC. As a result, the information in the Company’s SEC filings with respect to reserves will differ significantly from the information in this press release.

NPV10 for PRMS 1P, 2P and 3P reserves is not a substitute for the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flow for SEC proved reserves.

The reserve estimates provided in this release are estimates only, and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual reserves may eventually prove to be greater than, or less than, the estimates provided herein. Statements relating to reserves are by their nature forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Measures: The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and operating netback per boe, which are each non-GAAP measures, are useful because they allow the Company to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. The Company’s computation of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, return on capital employed and operating netback per boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as profit for the period before net finance costs, income tax, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash items such as impairments and write-offs of unsuccessful exploration and evaluation assets, accrual of stock options stock awards, unrealized results on commodity risk management contracts and other non-recurring events. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of profit or cash flow as determined by IFRS. The Company excludes the items listed above from profit for the period in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flow from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure and significant and/or recurring write-offs, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the IFRS financial measure of profit for the year or corresponding period, see the accompanying financial tables.

Free cash flow: Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure and does not have a standardized meaning under GAAP. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less cash used in investing activities excluding Argentina acquisition and cash advances from disposal of long-term assets.

Operating Netback per boe: Operating netback per boe should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flow from operating activities as determined in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Operating Netback per boe are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure and significant and/or recurring write-offs, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Operating Netback per boe. The Company’s computation of Operating Netback per boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of Operating Netback per boe to the IFRS financial measure of profit for the year or corresponding period, see the accompanying financial tables.

Net Debt: Net debt is defined as current and non-current Borrowings less Cash and Cash equivalents.
