HOUSTON, May 2, 2018 — Apache Corporation (NYSE: APA) (Nasdaq: APA) today announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter of 2018.

Apache reported earnings of $145 million or $0.38 per diluted common share for the first quarter of 2018. These results include a number of items outside of core earnings that are typically excluded by the investment community in their published earnings estimates. When adjusted for these and certain additional items that impact the comparability of results, Apache’s first-quarter earnings were $124 million or $0.32 per share. Net cash provided by operating activities in the quarter was $615 million. Before working capital changes, Apache generated $799 million in operating cash flow. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and exploration expenses (adjusted EBITDAX) was $1.1 billion.

John J. Christmann IV, Apache’s chief executive officer and president, said, “During the first quarter, Apache delivered strong operational results and U.S. production significantly above guidance. Outperformance in the United States was driven by a combination of shorter completion cycle times, improving efficiencies and excellent performance from new wells.

“Internationally, production was in line with our guidance, and our exposure to Brent oil pricing contributed to high margins, high cash returns and strong free cash flow. The first quarter was very good from an execution and cost-control standpoint, and we are seeing continued momentum into the second quarter,” said Christmann.

First-quarter operational summary

Highlights from the company’s three principal areas include:

• United States — U.S. production averaged 232,000 BOE per day. The company averaged 17 rigs and drilled and completed 60 gross-operated wells.

• Permian Basin —First-quarter production in the Permian Basin averaged 183,000 BOE per day, with oil up 14 percent and total production up 24 percent year over year.

• Midland Basin — Apache has transitioned primarily to multiwell pad development utilizing optimized pattern and spacing configurations. Across three pads, the company placed 12 wells on production in the Wolfcamp formation with an average peak30-day initial production (IP) rate of 173 BOE per day per 1,000 lateral feet and consisting of 75 percent oil. Notably, Apache tested its first Wolfcamp C producer, which achieved a30-day IP of 196 BOE per day per 1,000 lateral feet and consisting of 70 percent oil. Based on conservative early-stage assessments, this result could lead to the addition of several hundred Wolfcamp C locations.

Apache has implemented a new completion design with more optimal stage and cluster spacing, which is contributing to improved early-time well performance. The company is fracture stimulating more lateral feet per day, completing wells faster and more efficiently, and realizing significant cost savings.

• Delaware Basin —The company averaged 10 rigs and drilled and completed 29 gross-operated wells in the Delaware.

At Alpine High, production averaged 26,000 BOE per day, a33-percent increase over fourth-quarter 2017. Apache has begun the transition to pattern and spacing testing as well as development drilling on multiwell pads. Pad operations and well design changes are driving increased efficiencies and lower well costs. The company made significant progress toward its cost reduction target during the first quarter, with well costs down 20 percent over 2017 average well costs.

During the quarter, Apache brought online its first multiwell test in the wet gas window of the play, the four-well Chinook pad, which contains 1,350 British thermal units wet gas and oil. The average30-day IP rates for these wells was 1,366 BOE per day.

• Egypt — Apache averaged 14 rigs during the quarter and drilled and completed 28 gross-operated wells with an86-percent success rate. Adjusted production in Egypt, which excludes minority interest and the impact of tax barrels, averaged 80,000 BOE per day. During the quarter, Apache completed seven wells with24-hour IP rates exceeding 1,000 BOE per day. The company has completed approximately 20 percent of its2.6-million-acre, high-resolution, high-density 3D seismic survey in the Western Desert, which it believes will uncover impactful oil growth opportunities on its newly awarded concessions and legacy acreage.

• North Sea — Apache averaged three rigs during the quarter and produced 54,000 BOE per day. The company announced a significant discovery at the Garten prospect in the Beryl area, which encountered more than 700 feet of net oil pay in stacked, high-quality, Jurassic-aged sandstone reservoirs. The recoverable resource is expected to exceed 10 million barrels of light oil, which is at the high end of predrill estimates. Apache has a100-percent working interest in the Garten discovery. The company will revisit its 2019 and 2020 international production guidance as well tieback and development activities progress.

Capital investment and financial position

Oil-and-gas capital investment was $857 million during the quarter, with $115 million for Alpine High midstream. More thantwo-thirds of the capital spend in the quarter was focused on the Permian Basin.

In March 2018, the company entered into a new five-year revolving credit facility with commitments totaling $4 billion. Apache retired $150 million of notes that matured in February and ended the quarter with $1.1 billion of cash and net debt of $7.3 billion.

2018 outlook and guidance update

Solid operational execution and strong well performance in the first quarter is prompting Apache to raise its 2018 U.S. production guidance range to 250,000 BOE to 258,000 BOE per day from a previous range of 245,000 BOE to 255,000 BOE per day and expects a slight increase in its U.S. oil mix for the year. Capital guidance of $3 billion remains unchanged for the year.

Further details on other financial and operational guidance items for the second quarter and full year 2018 can be found in the First-Quarter 2018 Financial and Operational Supplement.

“We are very pleased with our results year to date, as our methodical approach to delineation and development is generating improved capital efficiency, higher returns and attractive production growth. I believe 2018 will be a year in which Apache differentiates itself operationally, particularly in the Permian Basin, where our measured pace is enabling the timely integration of key learnings and the ability to more effectively manage the inflationary service cost environment,” Christmann concluded.

Cautionary note to investors

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable, and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. Apache may use certain terms in this earnings release, such as “resources,” “potential resources,” “resource potential,” “estimated net reserves,” “recoverable reserves,” and other similar terms that the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit Apache from including in filings with the SEC. Such terms do not take into account the certainty of resource recovery, which is contingent on exploration success, technical improvements in drilling access, commerciality and other factors, and are therefore not indicative of expected future resource recovery and should not be relied upon. Investors are urged to consider carefully the disclosure in Apache’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2017, available from Apache at www.apachecorp.com or by writing Apache at: 2000 Post Oak Blvd., Suite 100, Houston, TX 77056 (Attn: Corporate Secretary). You can also obtain this report from the SEC by calling1-800-SEC-0330 or from the SEC’s website atwww.sec.gov.

Reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to adjusted EBITDAX

Management believes EBITDAX, or earnings before income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation, amortization and exploration expense is a widely accepted financial indicator, and useful for investors, to assess a company's ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures, and make distributions to shareholders. We define adjusted EBITDAX, a non-GAAP financial measure, as EBITDAX adjusted for certain items presented in the accompanying reconciliation. Management uses adjusted EBITDAX to evaluate our ability to fund our capital expenditures, debt services and other operational requirements and to compare our results from period to period by eliminating the impact of certain items that management does not consider to be representative of the Company’s on-going operations. Management also believes adjusted EBITDAX facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing EBITDAX from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain operating expenses that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

Reconciliation of income attributable to common stock to adjusted earnings

Our presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures because they exclude the effect of certain items included in Income Attributable to Common Stock. Management believes that adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share provides relevant and useful information, which is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry as well as by our management in assessing the Company’s operational trends and comparability of results to our peers.

Management uses adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share to evaluate our operating and financial performance because it eliminates the impact of certain items that management does not consider to be representative of the Company’s on-going business operations. As a performance measure, adjusted earnings may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company’s industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, capital structure and asset sales and other divestitures, among other factors. Management believes excluding these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Reconciliation of Debt to Net debt

Net debt, or outstanding debt obligations less cash and cash equivalents, is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses net debt as a measure of the Company's outstanding debt obligations that would not be readily satisfied by its cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Reconciliation of Costs incurred and GTP capital investments to Oil and gas capital investment

Management believes the presentation of oil and gas capital investments is useful for investors to assess Apache's expenditures related to our oil and gas capital activity. We define oil and gas capital investments as costs incurred for oil and gas activities and GTP activities, adjusted to exclude asset retirement obligations revisions and liabilities incurred, while including amounts paid during the period for abandonment and decommissioning expenditures. Capital expenditures attributable to a one-third noncontrolling interest in Egypt are also excluded. Management believes this provides a more accurate reflection of Apache's cash expenditures related to oil and gas capital activity and is consistent with how we plan our capital budget.

Reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to cash flows from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities

Cash flows from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities is a non-GAAP financial measure. Apache uses it internally and provides the information because management believes it is useful for investors and widely accepted by those following the oil and gas industry as a financial indicator of a company's ability to generate cash to internally fund exploration and development activities, fund dividend programs, and service debt. It is also used by research analysts to value and compare oil and gas exploration and production companies and is frequently included in published research when providing investment recommendations. Cash flows from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities, therefore, is an additional measure of liquidity but is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities.
