NATCHEZ, Miss.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Callon Petroleum Company (NYSE: CPE) today reported results of operations for both the three and 12-month periods ended December 31, 2010.
Highlights for 2010 include:
- Increased proved reserves to 13.6 million barrels of oil equivalent as of December 31, 2010, a 41% increase, and the PV-10 value, a non-GAAP financial measure, using SEC pricing, increased by 50% to $206 million. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of PV-10 value to the standardized measure value of $198.9 million.)
- Grew the percentage of proved reserves associated with onshore assets to 50%, up from 0% at year-end 2008. Proved reserves at December 31, 2010 are 49% proved, developed/producing and proved/developed/non-producing, and are 60% crude oil and 40% natural gas.
- Drilled 20 gross oil wells in the Permian Basin of West Texas, 11 were completed and producing at year-end and 9 were awaiting fracture stimulation, which increased our Permian net production to 550 barrels of oil equivalent per day at the end of 2010 – a 69% increase over the 2009 year-end production rate.
- Drilled and completed the company’s first well in the Haynesville Shale play in northern Louisiana. This successful well now holds all of Callon’s acreage in the play by production, with six additional drilling locations, four net wells, in inventory awaiting more favorable natural gas prices.
“Continued execution of the business strategy we adopted in late 2009 made 2010 a transformational year for Callon Petroleum Company,” Fred Callon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer explains. “In the Permian Basin, we’ve instituted a two-rig continuous drilling program with a goal of drilling 43 net wells during 2011, and have recently signed a hydraulic fracturing contract which should mitigate completion delays and improve our ability to execute our plan. In less than two years, our new business strategy including property acquisitions and their development have resulted in the rapid growth of onshore oil and gas reserves and production. As a result of the investment community’s recognition of our progress, the price of our common shares increased 295% during 2010 from January 1 to December 31. In February of 2011, we approached the equity market to raise additional growth capital, and were encouraged by the positive response received by our equity offering. Our 2010 achievements create a strong foundation for continued operational success in 2011.”
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2010 Net Income. The company reported fourth quarter net income of $0.7 million, or $0.02 per fully-diluted share, compared to a net income of $53.9 million or $2.27 per fully-diluted share for the 2009 fourth quarter. For the year ended December 31, 2010, Callon’s net income was $8.4 million or $0.28 per fully-diluted share, as compared to $54.4 million or $2.45 per share for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net income for the full-year 2009 includes $51.5 million or $2.32 per share related to a one-time recoupment of royalties and related interest.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2010 Operating Results. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2010 include oil and gas sales of $24.4 million from average production of approximately 5,100 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boe/d). These results compare with oil and gas sales of $30.1 million from average production of approximately 5,900 Boe/d during the comparable 2009 period. The average price received per barrel of oil (Bbl) in the fourth quarter of 2010, after the impact of hedging, increased to $82.58, compared to $77.94 during the same period in 2009. The average price received per thousand cubic feet of natural gas (Mcf) in the fourth quarter of 2010, after the impact of hedging, decreased to $4.49, compared to $5.01 during the fourth quarter of 2009. Oil and natural gas sales for full year 2010 totaled $89.9 million from average production of approximately 4,600 Boe/d. This corresponds to oil and natural gas sales of $101.3 million from average production of approximately 5,400 Boe/d during 2009, which excludes the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) royalty recoupment of $40.9 million related to 2003 through 2008 production. The average price received per Bbl during full year 2010, after the impact of hedging, increased to $75.97, compared to $73.00 during the same period in 2009. The average price received per Mcf for full year 2010, after the impact of hedging, increased to $5.04, compared to $4.78 during the full year of 2009.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2010 Discretionary Cash Flow. Discretionary cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, for the three-month period ended December 31, 2010 totaled $10.7 million compared to $63.1 million during the comparable prior year period, which included $40.9 million attributable to the royalty recoupment related to 2003 through 2008 production. Net cash flow provided by operating activities, as defined by U.S. GAAP, was $17.7 million in the fourth quarter 2010, and $8.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. Discretionary cash flow for full year 2010 totaled $40.6 million, compared to $93.1 million in 2009. Net cash flow provided by operating activities, as defined by U.S. GAAP, totaled $99.9 million and $19.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” that follows and the accompanying reconciliation of discretionary cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, to net cash flow provided by operating activities.)
Liquidity. At December 31, 2010 the company’s cash balance was $17.4 million. On October 26, 2010, Regions Bank increased the company’s borrowing base from $20 million to $30 million as a component of its $100 million Third Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement. The $30 million borrowing base will be reviewed and re-determined on a semi-annual basis. As of March 14, 2011, there was nothing drawn on the facility, which matures on September 25, 2012. During February, 2011, the Company received $73.7 million in net proceeds through the public offering of 10.1 million shares of its common stock, which included the issuance of 1.1 million shares pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option. In March, 2011, the Company plans to utilize approximately $35 million of the proceeds to redeem $31 million of the face value of its Senior Notes due 2016, plus the 13% call premium. The remaining proceeds from the offering are intended to fund a portion of its 2011 capital budget and for general corporate purposes, including possible future acquisitions.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures. This news release refers to non-GAAP financial measures as “discretionary cash flow” and “PV-10 value.” Callon believes that the non-GAAP measure of discretionary cash flow is useful as an indicator of an oil and gas exploration and production company’s ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt. The company also has included this information because changes in operating assets and liabilities relate to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements which the company may not control and may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred. We also use the non-GAAP financial measure PV-10 value. PV-10 value is the present value of future net pre-tax cash flows attributable to estimated net proved reserves, discounted at 10% per annum. PV-10 value is computed on the same basis as standardized measure, a GAAP financial measure, but does not include a provision for future income taxes. We believe PV-10 value to be an important measure for evaluating the relative significance of our oil and gas properties, because it excludes income taxes which may vary materially among companies. PV-10 is not, however, a substitute for standardized measure.
