Management Commentary

Allan D. Keel, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The Company entered 2012 with two main objectives. The first objective was to continue our transition to a balanced profile of natural gas and crude oil and NGLs. Second, validate our Woodbine acreage position. I am pleased to say the Company accomplished both tasks. In 2012, crude oil production increased by 90% to 753,980 net barrels, so total liquids production represented 45% of total production, up from 30% in 2011, and our year-end proved reserves were 47% crude oil and NGLs, up from 19% at year-end 2011. In our Woodbine play in Madison and Grimes counties, Texas, Crimson has emerged as an industry leader offering significant exposure to the core parts of the play. Since completing our Mosley #1H well in March 2012, Crimson’s operated properties in the Woodbine have produced over 550,000 gross barrels of oil equivalent and our operated and non-operated wells have achieved an average 24-hr initial production rate of 1,108 boepd and a 30-Day average production rate of 748 boepd. In 2013, we will continue to develop our assets in the Woodbine formation, while concurrently expanding our focus on oil-weighted opportunities to include the crude oil rich Buda formation in South Texas and look to possibly execute a drilling program for the James Lime in East Texas.”
