PEDEVCO Announces Reactivation of Shut-in Production

HOUSTON, TX June 29, 2020 – On June 29, 2020, PEDEVCO Corp. (NYSE American: PED) (“PEDEVCO” or the “Company”) reported that, due to the recent recovery in oil prices, commencing in early June 2020 the Company has reactivated over 90% of its operated wells in the D-J Basin and the Permian Basin that the Company shut-in in response to the sharp decline in oil prices precipitated by decreased demand for oil caused by the COVID-19 outbreak and actions taken globally to stop the spread of the virus. The Company will continue to monitor oil prices with a view to resuming its 2020 development plan should oil prices recover to approximately $50 per barrel (WTI).

PEDEVCO Corp. (NYSE American: PED), is a publicly-traded energy company engaged in the acquisition and development of strategic, high growth energy projects in the United States.

All statements in this press release that are not based on historical fact are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Acts"). In particular, when used in the preceding discussion, the words "estimates," "believes," "hopes," "expects," "intends," "plans," "anticipates," or "may," and similar conditional expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act, and are subject to the safe harbor created by the Act. Any statements made in this news release other than those of historical fact, about an action, event or development, are forward-looking statements. While management has based any forward-looking statements contained herein on its current expectations, the information on which such expectations were based may change. These forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are outside of the Company's control, that could cause actual results to materially differ from such statements.
