SECOND QUARTER OF 2012 AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012

 

Revenues Increased 104% to $60.3 Million

Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Record High of $41.1 Million for Second Quarter 2012

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Houston – (Marketwire) – August 9, 2012 – Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (NYSE: MHR) (NYSE MKT: MHR.PRC) (NYSE MKT: MHR.PRD) (“Magnum Hunter” or the “Company”) announced today financial results for the second quarter of 2012 and six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

 

Magnum Hunter reported an increase in total revenues of 104% to $60.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $29.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Operating margins also improved significantly as lease operating expenses per barrel of oil equivalent (“Boe”) declined approximately 30% from $14.58 per Boe to $10.14 per Boe, primarily due to the addition of new unconventional production and tighter controls on field operating expenses. Recurring cash general and administrative costs per Boe also declined approximately 66% from $15.36 to $5.29 per Boe. The Company anticipates this trend of improving operating margins to continue throughout the second half of 2012 as oil production grows in its unconventional resource plays and the Company’s overhead requirements will have minimal expansion.

 

The Company reported a net loss of $14.6 million or ($0.10) per basic and diluted common shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $18.5 million, or ($0.16) per basic and diluted common shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The Company’s net loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was ($0.04) per basic and diluted common shares outstanding when adjusted for non-cash and non-recurring expenses of $8.0 million (See Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations below).

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, Magnum Hunter’s ‘Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization’ (“Adjusted EBITDA”) was $38.2 million or $0.25 per basic and diluted common shares outstanding. This represents a 198% increase over the Adjusted EBITDA of $12.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Second quarter 2012 Adjusted EBITDAX pro forma for a full quarter of earnings from the Williston Basin acquisition closed on May 22, 2012 would have been $41.1 million (See Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations below).

 

 

Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

 

Magnum Hunter reported an increase in total revenues of 167% to $117.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $44.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Operating margins also improved substantially as lease operating expenses per barrel of oil equivalent (“Boe”) declined from $13.92 per Boe to $9.97 per Boe, primarily due to the addition of new unconventional production and tighter controls on field operating expenses. Recurring cash general and administrative costs per Boe also declined from $15.40 per Boe to $6.14 per Boe.

 

The Company reported a net loss of $31.7 million or ($0.22) per basic and diluted common shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $27.8 million, or ($0.29) per basic and diluted common shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The Company’s net loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was ($0.06) per basic and diluted common shares outstanding when adjusted for non-cash and non-recurring expenses of $23.5 million (See Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations below).

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, Magnum Hunter’s ‘Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization’ (“Adjusted EBITDA”) was $72.5 million or $0.51 per basic and diluted common shares outstanding. This represents a 273% increase over the Adjusted EBITDA of $19.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Adjusted EBITDAX pro forma for a full quarter of earnings from the Williston Basin acquisition closed on May 22, 2012 for the first six months of 2012 would have been $75.4 million (See Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations below).

 

Production Results

 

Oil and gas production increased 162% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to 1.18 million barrels of oil equivalent (“MMBoe”) or 12,984 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“Boepd”) (45% oil/liquids) as compared to the 450,203 barrels of oil equivalent or 4,947 Boepd reported for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The Company exited the second quarter of 2012 with a 50% oil/liquids production mix, and expects to exit 2012 in excess of 18,000 Boepd, with an approximate production mix of 60% oil and liquids.

 

Acquisitions

 

On May 22, 2012, Magnum Hunter closed on certain Bakken/Three Forks Sanish properties located in the Williston Basin of North Dakota from Baytex Energy USA Ltd. (a subsidiary of Baytex Energy Corp. (TSX: BTE) (NYSE: BTE)) for $311 million, as adjusted for certain customary adjustments. The acquisition included 50,414 net mineral acres located primarily in Divide County, North Dakota. Additionally during the second quarter of 2012 the Company acquired 7,272 net acres through freehold leasing and acquiring crown land in the Tableland field of the Williston Basin. The Company now has approximately 132,000 net acres in the Williston Basin.

 

Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the Company has recently closed on the acquisition of 1,885 net acres of leasehold located in Atascosa County, Texas for approximately $2.35 million, implying a net per acre cost of $1,246. The acreage is prospective for both the Eagle Ford and Pearsall shales and gives the Company 10 additional net drilling locations in the Pearsall Shale and 10 - 13 additional net drilling locations in the Eagle Ford Shale. The Company now has approximately 5,212 net acres prospective for the Pearsall Shale and 26,000 net acres in the Eagle Ford Shale.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

Magnum Hunter’s total capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, were $101 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, including $87.5 million for upstream activities and $13.5 million for midstream activities. Second quarter 2012 capital expenditures included drilling capital in the amount of $16 million for wells drilled but not yet completed. These wells will be completed during the third and fourth quarters of this year. The Company’s 2012 capital expenditure budget remains at $325 million for its upstream business and $50 million for its midstream business for a total of $375 million. The Company continues to direct a larger percentage of its capital expenditures to higher margin oil and liquids projects and is delaying completion of its liquids rich natural gas Marcellus wells until later in the year when the Mobley natural gas processing facility is fully operational.

 

 

Liquidity

 

Magnum Hunter announced today that the Company’s borrowing base under its $750 million Senior Bank Facility has been increased by $47.5 million to $260 million. This 22% increase from the previous borrowing base of $212.5 million is due entirely to organic growth derived from the Company’s total proved reserves. As previously reported, Magnum Hunter’s total proved reserves as of June 30, 2012 were 67.7 million Boe, which represents a 51% increase from the proved reserve report at year end 2011.

 

As a result of the Company’s internally generated cash flows, our ability to issue additional Series D preferred stock and existing liquidity available under our Senior Bank Credit Facility, Magnum Hunter currently has the necessary capital to fund its remaining capital expenditure budget program. All of the capital expenditures for our midstream segment are expected to be funded through both the Eureka Hunter Credit Facility and ArcLight’s preferred equity investment. As of August 8, 2012, Magnum Hunter had total available liquidity of over $255 million, including cash and availability under the Company’s Senior Bank Facility of $130 million; and, under the Company’s market registration statement to issue and sell Series D Preferred Stock, subject to market conditions, the Company currently has the ability to issue up to an additional $125 million of Series D Preferred Stock (non-convertible). The Company has sold approximately $72 million of Series D Preferred Stock year to date, and expects to continue issuing Series D Preferred Stock opportunistically throughout the remainder of 2012.

 

 

 

Hedging

 

Magnum Hunter added a significant number of oil hedges during the second quarter of 2012, adding 3,500 Barrels per day (Bblpd) in 2012, 1,000 Bblpd in 2013 and 4,000 Bblpd in 2014.

Management Comments

 

Mr. Gary C. Evans, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Magnum Hunter Resources, commented, “Financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2012 reflect consistent growth in production, revenues and cash flow. At the same time, maintaining cost control has been paramount and our substantial reduction in lease operating expenses and general and administrative expenses per barrel of oil equivalent produced continues to decline. This allows the cash margin expansion that we have been experiencing each quarter over the past year. Our leasehold acreage position in all five of our shale plays continues to expand, most notably in the Williston Basin and the Eagle Ford, our two oil plays. As crude oil prices have moved back well north of $90.00 per barrel, we continue to increase our commodity hedge position to safe guard future volatility and insure cash flow down the road. With over $255 million of current and available liquidity, we are sufficiently funded to meet all our capital needs for the foreseeable future.”

 

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

 

Note: Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial accounting measure and as such, a full reconciliation of the above exhibited Adjusted EBITDA numbers to the Company’s reported net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 using standardized GAAP financial accounting methodology and as reported to and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission can be found and is exhibited in the footnotes of this press release below. Also, a reconciliation of the recurring loss per common share to the reported loss per common share and a reconciliation to recurring cash G&A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are provided in the footnotes of this press release below. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures for financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP that are presented in this release. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures to be important measures for evaluating the relative significance of our financial information used by equity analysts and investors.
