  - Period: first quarter of 2024
  - Net income: net loss of approximately $9.4 million
  - Guidance: raised
  - Result: reported results
  source text: the Company reported a net loss of approximately $9.4 million compared to net income of $43.6 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to non-cash unrealized losses on commodity derivatives during the period. Due to stronger crude oil prices and reduced downtime at Beta, Amplify generated $24.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter. As projected, capital investment in the first quarter increased significantly compared to the prior quarter. Despite this increase, Amplify generated net cash provided by operating activities of $7.7 million and $2.3 million of free cash flow in the first quarter of 2024, which exceeded internal projections. Amplify has now generated positive free cash flow in 15 of the last 16 fiscal quarters.
