James F. Park, Chief Executive Officer of GeoPark, said:"During a turbulent year when oil prices continued to plummet, our strong and growing operational results during the fourth quarter, and throughout the year, demonstrated the underlying quality of GeoPark's assets, our agility and financial discipline, and the focus and experience of our team. This is the backbone that has allowed GeoPark to grow from scratch, meet and overcome challenges, and achieve a reliable ten-year performance track record. It is the mix that is successfully carrying us through the current industry downturn and positioning us for accelerated growth during any oil price strengthening. We have used the downturn to beat-down costs, wring out inefficiencies, improve the organization, introduce innovations, increase flexibility, re-prioritize the portfolio, and permanently adapt to thrive in a world of lower oil prices. Our risk-balanced, multi-country asset platform, and the reputation of our team in the region, also give us first-mover advantage in the hunt for and acquisition of new attractively-valued projects. We are excited and motivated by the enduring business we have built, the big opportunities in our industry today, and the important year ahead."

OIL AND GAS RESERVES UPDATE

Oil and Gas Reserves:GeoPark consolidated 2P reserves (in Colombia, Chile and Brazil) increased by 3% in 2015 to 95.1 mmboe compared to 2014 and, including Peru, to 125.3 mmboe. The increase in reserves mainly results from new discoveries in the Llanos 34 Block (GeoPark operated with 45% WI) in Colombia, partially offset by 2015 production and reductions of reserves in Chile as a result of low oil prices and technical revisions. Total consolidated certified 2P and 3P reserves NPV10 in Colombia, Chile, Brazil and Peru, amounted to $1.65 billion and $2.9 billion, respectively.

2P RLI in Colombia, Chile and Brazil equaled 12.9 years and, including Peru, equaled 16.9 years. For each boe produced in 2015, 1.4 boe of 2P reserves were added with a 2P RRI of 141%.

P1 RLI in Colombia, Chile and Brazil equaled 7.1 years and, including Peru, 9.6 years. For each boe produced in 2015, 2.1 boe of P1 reserves were added with a P1 RRI of 211%.

PDP reserves in Colombia, Chile and Brazil increased 25% (3.5 mmboe) to 17.3 mmboe. For each boe produced in 2015, 1.5 boe of PDP reserves were added with a PDP RRI of 150%.

3 

Production:Consolidated production increased by 15% reaching a record production of 23,062 boepd in 4Q2015, compared to 19,984 boepd in 4Q2014.

· Colombia: Average net oil and gas production in Colombia increased by 34% to 15,510 boepd in 4Q2015 mainly resulting from new oil field discoveries, development drilling and reengineering of well completions and operations

· Chile: Average net oil and gas production in Chile decreased by 16% to 4,006 boepd in 4Q2015 (up 25% compared to 3Q2015). The decrease consisted of 39% lower oil production and 13% lower gas production and was mainly the result of natural decline in base production and no drilling activity during 2015. Gas production was increased by 56% compared to 3Q2015 as a result of the put on production of the Ache gas field at the end of 3Q2015

· Brazil: Average net oil and gas production increased by 1% to 3,546 boepd in 4Q2015, primarily attributed to the start-up of the new Manati gas field compression plant to stabilize production and develop the remaining Manati gas reserves (non-operated with 10% WI)

Reference and Realized Oil Prices:Consolidated realized oil sales price averaged $23.6 per barrel in 4Q2015, representing a $21.4 discount from the average Brent crude prices of $45 per barrel. Commercial efforts are underway to improve realized oil prices and reduce discounts, including negotiations in Chile and the new Trafigura offtake agreement in Colombia.

· Colombia: Realized oil price was $22.2 per barrel. Vasconia, the Company’s reference price in Colombia, averaged $38 per barrel during 4Q2015. Discounts include commercial costs related to oil quality, marketing fees and transportation costs (approximately $16 per barrel) related to sales made at wellhead

· Chile: Realized oil price was $33.5 per barrel in 4Q2015 (representing a $11.5 per barrel discount from Brent)

The table below sets forth break-down of reference and net realized oil prices in Colombia and Chile in 4Q2015:

Realized Oil Prices 4Q2015 ($ per bbl)	Colombia	Chile
Brent Oil Price	45.0	45.0
Vasconia Differential	(7.0)	-
Commercial Discounts	(15.8)	(11.5)
Realized Oil Price	22.2	33.5
Weight on Sales Mix	89%	11%

Net Revenues:Consolidated net revenues decreased by 44% to $45.4 million in 4Q2015, compared to $80.8 million in 4Q2014, mainly driven by lower oil and gas prices.

Consolidated Oil Revenues: Consolidated oil revenues decreased by 52% to $33.1 million in 4Q2015 mainly explained by a 57% decrease in realized oil prices. Oil revenues represent 73% of total net revenues as compared to 85% in 4Q2014.

· Colombia: In 4Q2015, oil revenues decreased by 46% to $27.7 million mainly due to lower oil prices. Realized oil prices decreased by 57% to $22.2 per barrel and oil deliveries increased by 16% to 1.3 million barrels. The decrease in realized prices was higher than the decrease in reference prices due to more volumes sold at well-head. During 2015 the Company made effective a change in sales mix: 77% of sales volumes were made at the well-head, compared to approximately 45% in 4Q2014. Well-head sales imply lower realized prices but also lower selling expense

Colombian earn-out payments (deducted from Colombian oil revenues) decreased by 82% to $1.3 million in 4Q2015, compared to $7.2 million in 4Q2014, mainly due to the decline in oil prices

4 

· Chile: In 4Q2015, oil revenues decreased by 69% to $5.1 million due to lower production and lower prices. Realized oil prices decreased 53% to $33.5 per barrel in line with decreased Brent prices. Deliveries decreased by 37% to 0.15 million barrels due to lower production resulting from the natural decline of the fields and no new wells drilled during the year

Consolidated Gas Revenues: Consolidated gas revenues remained stable and amounted to $12.3 million in 4Q2015 compared to $12.5 million in 4Q2014.

· Chile: In 4Q2015, gas revenues increased by 4% to $5.0 million mainly due to increased production, partially offset by lower prices. Gas deliveries increased by 11% and amounted to 1,092 mmcf (0.18 mmboe) mainly resulting from the start-up of the Ache gas field. Gas prices decreased by 6% to $4.6 per mcf ($27.6 per boe) in 4Q2015, resulting from lower international methanol prices that affected the gas price for a portion of the Fell Block gas production

· Brazil: In 4Q2015, gas revenues slightly decreased by 4% to $7.3 million mainly due to lower prices. Gas prices, net of taxes, decreased to $4.1 per mcf ($24.6 per boe), largely generated by the depreciation of the local currency. Gas deliveries slightly decreased by 3% and amounted to 1,800 mmcf (0.3 mmboe)

Production and operating costs:Consolidated production and operating costs decreased by 33% to $22.2 million in 4Q2015, representing savings of $7.1 per barrel.

Consolidated operating costs: Consolidated operating costs (excluding royalties) decreased by 31% to $19.5 million in 4Q2015, compared to $28.4 million in 4Q2014, due to cost reduction initiatives and the impact of the depreciation of the local currencies against the US Dollar, even in consideration of the 15% increase in oil and gas production during the quarter. These factors resulted in reduced well maintenance, consumables, transportation, equipment rental, field camp, staff and other operating costs.

· Colombia: Operating costs decreased by 39% to $11.8 million in 4Q2015. Operating costs per boe decreased by 48% to $9.0 per boe mainly due to cost reduction initiatives, the impact of the depreciation of the Colombian Peso and improved fixed cost absorption from increased production

· Chile: Operating costs decreased by 25% to $5.9 million in 4Q2015. Operating costs per boe decreased by 10% to $18.5 per boe due to cost reduction initiatives and the impact of the depreciation of the Chilean Peso, partially offset by the impact on fixed costs from lower production

· Brazil: As expected, operating costs increased by 11% to $1.7 million mainly due to the impact of higher operating expenses resulting from the start-up of the compression plant in the Manati Field, partially offset by the depreciation of the Brazilian Real. Operating costs per boe increased by 15% to $5.7 per boe

Consolidated Royalties: Consolidated royalties paid in cash (reported in production and operating costs) amounted to $2.7 million in 4Q2015, compared to $4.6 million in 4Q2014, representing 5.9% of total net revenues in 4Q2015 and 5.7% in 4Q2014. The increase in royalties, as a percentage of sales, is mainly due to the Tua and Tigana fields in the Llanos 34 Block (GeoPark operated with 45% WI) in Colombia becoming subject to higher royalties in 2015 after surpassing the production threshold of 5 million barrels of oil.

Selling Expenses: Consolidated selling expenses decreased by 50% to $1.4 million in 4Q2015 compared to $2.8 million in 4Q2014, mainly as the result of lower selling expenses in Colombia and certain reclassifications in the Brazilian Operations.

· Colombia: Selling expenses decreased by 81% to $1.0 million in 4Q2015 resulting from lower transportation costs per boe due to a change in the commercialization mix increasing sales at well-head in 4Q2015, compared to 4Q2014

· Chile: Selling expenses decreased by 28% to $0.3 million in 4Q2015 resulting from lower sales and production in 4Q2015, compared to 4Q2014

Administrative Expenses (G&A):Consolidated administrative expenses decreased by 7% to $10.2 million in 4Q2015 compared to $11.0 million in 4Q2014 mainly due to continuing financial discipline and cost reduction initiatives impacting consultant fees, office expenses, directors fees, share based payments and

5 

other G&A costs. The G&A cost reduction was achieved despite new start-up costs related to the Company’s operations in Peru and lower overhead collected from joint venture partners due to lower capital expenditure.

Adjusted EBITDA:Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA3 decreased by 61% to $10.6 million in 4Q2015 compared to $27.4 million in 4Q2014, mainly caused by the 44% decrease in revenues resulting from lower international oil prices, which was partially offset by a 35% reduction in cash costs (including production and operating costs, G&A and selling expenses).

Adjusted EBITDA per boe decreased by 63% to $5.5 per boe, in 4Q2015, compared to $15.0 per boe in 4Q2014.

· Colombia: Adjusted EBITDA decreased 56% to $9.2 million in 4Q2015 compared to $20.7 million in 4Q2014, mainly due to the decline in realized oil prices and increased royalties, partially offset by lower operating and selling costs. Adjusted EBITDA per boe decreased by 62% to $7.0 per boe in 4Q2015, mainly due to lower oil prices, partially offset by lower operating costs and selling expenses per boe resulting from increased efficiency and the depreciation of the Colombian Peso

· Chile: Adjusted EBITDA was $0.9 million in 4Q2015, compared to $3.0 million in 4Q2014, mainly due to lower production and the impact of lower oil and gas prices, partially offset by lower operating and production costs and G&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA per boe of $2.6, as compared to $7.4 in 4Q2014

· Brazil: Adjusted EBITDA decreased 44% to $4.1 million in 4Q2015 compared to $7.3 million in 4Q2014, mainly due to lower revenues resulting from lower realized prices due to the depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the US Dollar and higher operating costs related to costs associated with the compression plant that started in 3Q2015. Adjusted EBITDA per boe decreased by 42% to $13.6 in 4Q2015 compared to $23.5 in 4Q2014

· Peru, Argentina and Corporate: Adjusted EBITDA amounted to $3.6 million loss in 4Q2015 compared to $3.5 million loss in 4Q2014

Depreciation:Consolidated depreciation charges increased by 13% to $31.2 million in 4Q2015, compared to $27.7 million in 4Q2014, mainly due to higher production during the quarter and higher depreciation costs per boe in Chile and stable depreciation costs per boe in Colombia and Brazil.

Write-off of Unsuccessful Efforts:Consolidated write-off of unsuccessful effort charges amounted to $26.4 million in 4Q2015, compared to $21.8 million in 4Q2014. Charges expensed in 4Q2015 include the write-off of capitalized seismic studies and two exploratory wells (drilled in previous years) in Tierra del Fuego Blocks in Chile.

Impairmentof Non-Financial Assets: Consolidated non-cash impairment of non-financial assets amounted to $149.6 million in 4Q2015 ($104.5 million recorded in Chile and $45.1 million in Colombia) compared to $9.4 million in 4Q2014 (100% in Colombia), resulting from the continuing low oil price environment. A non-cash impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which an asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

CONSOLIDATED NON-OPERATING RESULTS AND PROFIT FOR THE PERIOD

Financial Costs:Net financial costs increased by 26% to $9.6 million in 4Q2015, compared to $7.6 million in 4Q2014 mainly from the impact of lower capitalized interest costs and the increase of other financial costs.

Foreign Exchange Gain/Loss:Net foreign exchange charges amounted to a $10.9 million gain in 4Q2015 compared to $11.5 million loss in 4Q2014, mainly related to the impact of the appreciation and depreciation, respectively, of the Brazilian Real over US Dollar-denominated net debt incurred at the local subsidiary level, where the functional currency is the Brazilian Real.

Income Tax Benefit/Loss:Income tax amounted to a $2.0 million loss in 4Q2015 as compared to a $17.8 million gain in 4Q2014. Income taxes in 4Q2015 were negatively affected by non-recoverable tax loss carry-forwards amounting to $15.5 million with an impact on Chilean operations.

Profit/Loss:Losses for the period amounted to $201.5 million in 4Q2015 compared to $33.7 million in 4Q2014, mainly due to lower revenues resulting from lower realized prices and higher non-cash impairment of non-financial assets, partially offset by lower Production and Operating costs, G&A and Selling expenses.

BALANCE SHEET

Cash and Cash Equivalents:Cash and cash equivalents totaled $82.7 million as of December 31, 2015. Year-end 2014 cash and cash equivalents amounted to $127.7 million, the difference primarily being (i) cash used in investing activities during 2015 amounting to $48.8 million and (ii) $18.0 million of net funds used in financing activities, and (iii) previous two components partially offset by cash generation from operating activities that amounted to $25.9 million.

Total Assets: Total assets amounted to $703.8 million as of December 31, 2015 compared to $1,039 million as of December 31, 2014. The decrease is mainly due to lower PP&E assets derived from non-cash impairment charges and write-offs of non-financial assets and depreciation charges during 2015 as well as lower cash and cash equivalents as explained in the paragraphs above.

Financial Debt: Total financial debt (net of debt issuance costs) amounted to $378.7 million, including mainly the $300 million 2020 Bond and the credit facility denominated in Reais in Brazil for the acquisition of an interest in the Brazilian Manati Field amounting to $70.4 million.

Equity:Equity reached $200.2 million and included non-controlling interests of $53.5 million related to LG International’s participation in the Chilean and Colombian operations. (LG International Corp., the Korean conglomerate, holds a 20% equity interest in GeoPark’s Colombian operations, a 20% equity interest in the Fell Block and a 31% equity interest in the Tierra del Fuego blocks in Chile). Equity as of December 31, 2015 decreased by $278.9 million since December 31, 2014 mainly because of the $284.6 million loss in the year ended December 31, 2015, partially offset by share-based payment charges amounting to $8.2 million.

GeoPark’s consolidated financialincurrence test covenants included in the 2020 Bond Indenture are:

· A leverage Ratio, defined as Gross Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, lower than 2.5x from 2015 onwards; and

· An interest Coverage Ratio, defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Interest Expenses, above 3.5x.

As stated in the table above, as of December 31, 2015 the Company’s Leverage Ratio was above the 2.5 times threshold included in the 2020 Bond Indenture and in addition, the Interest Coverage Ratio was below the 3.5 times threshold included in the 2020 Bond Indenture. These ratios were impacted by the current low oil price environment. Failure to comply with theincurrence test ratios does not trigger by itself an event of default. However, this situation may limit the Company’s capacity to incur additional indebtedness, other than permitted debt, as specified in the indenture governing the Notes.Incurrence covenants as opposed tomaintenance covenants must be tested by the Company before incurring additional debt or performing other specific corporate actions including but not limited to dividend payments, restricted payments, and others.

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.

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 2016 production growth 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.

Oil and gas production figures included in this release are stated before the effect of royalties paid in kind, consumption and losses.

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 flows 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.

Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as profit for the period before net finance cost, 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, bargain purchase gain on acquisition of subsidiaries and other non-recurring events. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of profit or cash flows as determined by IFRS. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us 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 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 flows 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. The Company’s computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the IFRS financial measure of profit for the year or corresponding period, see the accompanying financial tables.

Operating netback per boe should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, profit for the period or cash flows 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.

Prospective Resources are those quantities of petroleum that are estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective Resources have both an associated “chance of discovery” and a “chance of development” (per PRMS). Prospective Resources are further subdivided in accordance with the level of certainty associated with recoverable estimates, assuming their discovery and development, and may be sub-classified based on project maturity. There is no certainty that any portion of the Prospective Resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the resources. Prospective Resource volumes are presented as unrisked.

The accuracy of any resource estimate is a function of the quality of the available data and of engineering and geological interpretation. Results of drilling, testing and production that postdate the preparation of the estimates may justify revisions, some or all of which may be material. Accordingly, resource estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered, and the timing and cost of those volumes that are recovered may vary from that assumed.

Prospective resources include 220-597 mmboe related to the Estratos con Favrella unconventional shale oil in Chile (Fell Block) for which the range of the final oil recovery factor assumed by GeoPark’s management for the calculation above considers: High: 2%, and Mean: 1.35%. The audit did not cover the above recovery factors and only included an evaluation of original oil in place.
