Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 14, 2015, Earthstone Energy, Inc. ("Earthstone") posted to its website a company presentation (the "Presentation Materials") that management intends to use from time to time about Earthstone's operations and performance.  Earthstone may use the Presentation Materials, possibly with modifications, in presentations to current and potential investors, lenders, creditors, vendors, customers and others with an interest in Earthstone and its business.
The information contained in the Presentation Materials is summary information that should be considered in the context of Earthstone's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other public announcements that Earthstone may make by press release or otherwise from time to time.  The Presentation Materials speak as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.  While Earthstone may elect to update the Presentation Materials in the future or reflect events and circumstances occurring or existing after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, Earthstone specifically disclaims any obligation to do so.  The Presentation Materials are furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
Some of the matters discussed in the Presentation Materials contain forward-looking statements that involve uncertainties and risks related to, intense competition in the oil and gas industry, Earthstone's dependence on its management, volatile oil and gas prices, uncertainties associated with oil and gas reserve estimates, operating and capital costs and Earthstone's need to replace production and
acquire or develop additional oil and gas reserves, among other matters. Actual results could differ materially from those projected and Earthstone cautions readers not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in, or made in connection with, the Presentation Materials.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K furnished pursuant to Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to liability under that section, and they shall not be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K and furnishing this information pursuant to Item 7.01, Earthstone makes no admission as to the materiality of any information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.
