EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1
General information
GeoPark Limited (the “Company”) is a company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda. The Registered Office address is Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton HM11, Bermuda.
The principal activity of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group” or “GeoPark”) is the exploration, development and production for oil and gas reserves in Colombia, Chile, Brazil, Argentina and Ecuador.
This condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 10, 2022.
Basis of Preparation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of GeoPark Limited are presented in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies applied in the most recent annual consolidated financial statements. The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2022, but do not have an impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group.
Whenever necessary, certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to changes in presentation in the current period.
Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.
The activities of the Group are not subject to significant seasonal changes.
Estimates
The preparation of interim financial information requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Financial risk management
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: currency risk, price risk, credit risk concentration, funding and liquidity risk, interest risk and capital risk. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Note 1 (Continued)
Financial risk management (Continued)
Recent conflict involving Russia and Ukraine has disrupted markets and resulted in volatility in commodities prices. The impact of this situation is uncertain and ongoing.
The Group is continually reviewing its exposure to the current market conditions and adjusting the capital expenditures program which remains flexible, quickly adaptable and expandable as prices increase. The Group also continues to add new oil hedges, increasing its price risk protection within the next twelve months. GeoPark maintained a cash position of US$ 114,139,000 and has available US$ 110,313,000 in uncommitted credit lines as of March 31, 2022.

(1) | GeoPark Peru S.A.C. Sucursal Ecuador holds 50% working interest in the consortiums that operate the Espejo and Perico Blocks. |
Details of the subsidiaries and joint operations of the Group are set out in Note 21 to the annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.
During the three-months period ended March 31, 2021, the following changes have taken place:

Note 2
Segment Information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Executive Committee. This committee is integrated by the CEO, COO, CFO and managers in charge of the Geoscience, Operations, Legal and Corporate Governance, People and Sustainability departments. This committee reviews the Group’s internal reporting in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Management has determined the operating segments based on these reports. The committee considers the business from a geographic perspective.
The Executive Committee assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit (loss) for the period (determined as if IFRS 16 Leases had not been adopted), before net finance cost, income tax, depreciation, amortization, certain non-cash items such as impairments and write-offs of unsuccessful exploration efforts, accrual of share-based payment, unrealized result on commodity risk management contracts, geological and geophysical expenses allocated to capitalized projects and other items. Other information provided to the Executive Committee is measured in a manner consistent with that in the financial statements.

Note 4
Commodity risk management contracts
The Group has entered into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to oil price risk. These derivatives are zero-premium collars and were placed with major financial institutions and commodity traders. The Group entered into the derivatives under ISDA Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes, which provide credit lines for collateral posting thus alleviating possible liquidity needs under the instruments and protect the Group from potential non-performance risk by its counterparties.
The Group’s derivatives that hedge cash flows from the sales of crude oil for periods through December 31, 2022 are accounted for as non-hedge derivatives and therefore all changes in the fair values of these derivative contracts are recognized immediately as gains or losses in the results of the periods in which they occur.
The Group’s derivatives that hedge cash flows from the sales of crude oil for periods from January 1, 2023 onwards are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of changes in the fair values of these derivative contracts are recognized in Other Reserve within Equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion, if any, is recognized immediately as gains or losses in the results of the periods in which they occur. The amount accumulated in Other Reserves is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss.
The following table summarizes the Group’s production hedged during the three-months period ended March 31, 2022 and for the following periods as a consequence of the derivative contracts in force as of March 31, 2022:

Cash distributions
On March 9, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash distribution of US$ 0.082 per share that was paid on March 31, 2022.
Buyback program
On November 4, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new program to repurchase up to 10% of its shares outstanding or approximately 6,062,000 shares. The repurchase program began on November 5, 2020 and was set to expire on November 15, 2021. On November 10, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the renewal of this repurchase program until November 10, 2022. During the three-months period ended March 31, 2022, the Company purchased 231,836 common shares for a total amount of US$ 3,123,000. These transactions have no impact on the Group’s results.
Beginning in 2022, GeoPark applies hedge accounting for the derivative financial instruments entered to manage its exposure to oil price risk. Consequently, the Group’s derivatives that hedge cash flows from the sales of crude oil for periods from January 1, 2023 onwards are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges and therefore the effective portion of changes in the fair values of these derivative contracts and the income tax relating to those results are recognized in Other Reserve within Equity. The amount accumulated in Other Reserves is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss.

Note 12 (Continued)
Borrowings (Continued)
During March 2022, the Company continued its deleveraging process initiated in April 2021, by repurchasing and cancelling with the Trustee a total nominal amount of US$ 23,111,000 of its 2024 Notes in open market transactions at prices below the call option. The difference between the carrying amount of debt that was repurchased and the consideration paid was recognized within financial expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of income. After the balance sheet date, the Company continued repurchasing 2024 Notes for a nominal amount of US$ 9,765,000.
The indentures governing the 2024 Notes and the 2027 Notes include incurrence test covenants that provide, among other things, that the Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio should not exceed 3.25 times and the Adjusted EBITDA to Interest ratio should exceed 2.5 times. Failure to comply with the incurrence test covenants does not trigger an event of default. However, this situation may limit the Company’s capacity to incur additional indebtedness, as specified in the indentures governing the Notes. Incurrence covenants as opposed to maintenance covenants must be tested by the Company before incurring additional debt or performing certain corporate actions including but not limited to dividend payments, restricted payments and others. As of the date of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company is in compliance of all the indentures’ provisions and covenants.
As of the date of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Group has credit lines available for US$ 110,313,000.

Note 15 (Continued)
Fair value measurement of financial instruments (Continued)
Fair value hierarchy (Continued)
There were no transfers between Level 2 and 3 during the period. The Group did not measure any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2022.
Fair values of other financial instruments (unrecognized)
The Group also has a number of financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet. For the majority of these instruments, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amounts, since the interest receivable/payable is either close to current market rates or the instruments are short-term in nature.
Borrowings are comprised primarily of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt with a short term portion where the interest has already been fixed and are measured at their amortized cost. The Group estimates that the fair value of its main financial liabilities is approximately 98% of its carrying amount, including interests accrued as of March 31, 2022. Fair values were calculated based on market price for the Notes and cash flows discounted for other borrowings using a rate based on the borrowing rate and are within Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, respectively.
Capital commitments
Capital commitments are detailed in Note 33.2 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2021. The following updates have taken place during the three-months period ended March 31, 2022:
The Group invested US$ 13,276,000 to fulfil its working interest commitments.
Colombia
GeoPark drilled the 2 exploratory wells committed in the Platanillo Block. These investments require the approval from the Colombian National Hydrocarbons Agency (“ANH”) to fulfil the Group’s commitment.
On March 10, 2022, GeoPark submitted to the ANH a request to withdraw from the PUT-14 E&P contract and transfer the pending commitments to other E&P contracts.
On March 15, 2022, the E&P contracts related to the Llanos 86 and Llanos 104 Blocks entered into exploratory phase 1. The investment commitments for these blocks over the three-years term of this first phase are:
● | Llanos 86 Block: 3D seismic, 2D seismic reprocessing and 1 exploratory well (US$ 9,849,000) |
● | Llanos 104 Block: 3D seismic, 2D seismic reprocessing and 1 exploratory well (US$ 8,752,000) |
On March 25, 2022, the ANH approved the assignment of a 50% non-operated working interest to GeoPark in the CPO-4-1 Block. The block is in a preliminary phase as of the date of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. During this preliminary phase, the operator must request from the Ministry of Interior a certificate that certifies the presence or absence of indigenous communities and develop a previous consultation process, if applicable. Only when this process has been completed and the corresponding regulatory approvals have been obtained, the blocks will enter into Phase 1, where the exploratory commitments are mandatory. The investment commitment for the block over three-years term of Phase 1 would be one exploratory well for a total amount of US$ 2,922,000, at GeoPark’s working interest.

Business transactions
Manati Block (Brazil)
On November 22, 2020, GeoPark signed an agreement to sell its 10% non-operated working interest in the Manati Block in Brazil. The total consideration amounted to Brazilian reais 144,400,000 (equivalent to US$ 30,478,000 as of March 31, 2022), including a fixed payment of Brazilian reais 124,400,000 plus an earn-out of Brazilian reais 20,000,000, which was subject to obtaining certain regulatory approvals. The transaction was subject to certain conditions that should have been met before March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, the required conditions were not met and GeoPark decided not to extend this deadline. As a result, GeoPark will continue to own its 10% interest in the block.
Aguada Baguales, El Porvenir and Puesto Touquet Blocks (Argentina)
In August 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the decision to evaluate farm-out or divestment opportunities to sell its 100% working interest and operatorship in the Aguada Baguales, El Porvenir and Puesto Touquet Blocks in Argentina, including the associated gas transportation license through the Puesto Touquet pipeline.
On November 3, 2021, GeoPark signed a sale and purchase and assignment agreement for a total consideration of US$ 16,000,000, subject to working capital adjustment. At that moment, GeoPark collected an advance payment of US$ 1,600,000.
The closing of the transaction took place on January 31, 2022, after the corresponding regulatory approvals were granted and GeoPark received the remaining outstanding payment from the purchaser. In April 2022, GeoPark paid a working capital adjustment amounting to US$ 370,000. As a consequence of this transaction, GeoPark recognized a gain of US$ 3,983,000 within Other income (expenses) for the three-months period ended March 31, 2022.
