Explanatory Note:  This amendment is being filed to correct a typographical error contained in the press release dated November 3, 2011 filed as Exhibit 99 to the original Form 8-K filed on November 3, 2011.
 
 

 
 
Item 2.02.                      Results of Operations and Financial Condition
 
In the news release attached as Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K as originally filed on November 3, 2011, Swift Energy Company (the “Company”) announced preliminary unaudited financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, provided updated quarterly and 2011 guidance and announced a conference call to discuss such results.  During the course of that conference call held on November 3, 2011, management of Swift Energy corrected an inadvertent transposition of two numbers in the press release comprising the low end of the currently anticipated range for fourth quarter 2011 crude oil production, which properly should have been a range of between 0.94 million and 0.96 million barrels of oil as opposed to the “0.49 – 0.96” million barrels reflected in the press release.
 
The Company will make the same correction to the version of the news release available on its website.  Swift Energy Company does not intend for this Item 2.02 to be incorporated by reference into its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
