During his tenure as CFO, Mr. Page was a driving force behind Wishbone’s expansion in the Horizontal San Andres play in the Permian Basin’s Northwest Shelf where Wishbone, through organic leasing, tactical acquisitions, and drilling operations grew its position from virtually nothing to 37,000 net acres and net production in excess of 6,100 BOEPD in late 2018. During this time, he navigated two crude price crashes with crude oil hedges and impeccably managed the growth of the company’s balance sheet and capital structure by prudently managing leverage to deliver outsized ROE. Mr. Page was a key architect behind Wishbone’s surge in drilling activity in 2018 to deliver PDP reserves to maximize the value of Wishbone’s assets in a Q4 2018 sales process during which he was a key participant and negotiator.
