In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the words Magnum Hunter, company, we, our, and us refer to Magnum Hunter Resources, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of Magnum Hunter Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2003, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders equity and comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2003, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) have been made to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2003, results of operations for the three and six month periods, changes in stockholders equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for the six month periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our December 31, 2002 annual report and on our Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company and our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain items have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation.
During the first quarter of 2002, we merged with Prize Energy Corp. (Prize), a publicly traded independent oil and gas development and production company. The merger with Prize closed on March 15, 2002, but for operating and financial reporting purposes, was effective as of March 1, 2002.
Subsequent to the Prize merger, we have divested of approximately 83.6 billion cubic feet equivalent of non-strategic proved producing oil and gas reserves for total proceeds of approximately $115 million. Almost all of the properties sold were acquired in the Prize merger, and the proceeds have been used to reduce our overall indebtedness and fund our capital program. These proceeds include the $13.4 million package of non-strategic South Louisiana oil and gas properties which closed June 9, 2003.
Magnum Hunter is a holding company with no significant assets or operations other than our investments in our subsidiaries. The wholly owned subsidiaries of the company, except for Canvasback Energy, Inc. and Redhead Energy, Inc., collectively referred to as Canvasback, are direct guarantors of each of our 10% Senior Notes and 9.6% Senior Notes, and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed these Senior Notes on a joint and several basis. The guarantors comprise all of our direct and indirect subsidiaries (other than Canvasback), and we have presented separate condensed consolidating financial statements and other disclosures concerning each guarantor and Canvasback (See Note 10). Except for Canvasback, there is no restriction on the ability of consolidated or unconsolidated subsidiaries to transfer funds to the company in the form of cash dividends, loans, or advances.
SFAS No. 143 SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, became effective beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 143 requires the recognition of a fair value liability for any retirement obligation associated with long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be
5
made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and depreciated over the assets useful life. See Note 5 for additional information on our asset retirement obligations. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 143, we recorded an addition to oil and gas properties of $25.4 million, an asset retirement obligation of $30.4 million, a reduction of accumulated depletion of $5.6 million, and a pre-tax gain of $643 thousand.
SFAS No. 145 SFAS No. 145 Recission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections, became effective beginning January 1, 2003. The Statement rescinds, updates, clarifies and simplifies various existing accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, which required all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax effect. As a result, SFAS No. 145 requires us to reclassify as additional expense, any extraordinary items for debt extinguishment costs which did not meet the criteria as described in APB Opinion No. 30 Reporting the Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, as additional expense.
SFAS No. 146 In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 supercedes EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). Statement 146 is to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.
SFAS No. 148 The FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment to FASB Statement No. 123, in December 2002. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123. Effective June 1, 2003, we began expensing the fair market value of stock options newly granted, modified or settled pursuant to SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and as allowed under the prospective method of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an amendment to SFAS No. 123. The fair value of each option granted after December 31, 2002 is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded stock compensation expense of $433 thousand which is reflected in our general and administrative expenses. For options granted prior to January 1, 2003, we continue to use the intrinsic method under APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and Related Interpretations, whereby no compensation expense is recognized for stock options granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of our stock on the grant date. For additional information on our stock compensation, please see Note 3.
FIN No. 45 FIN No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, was issued in November 2002. This interpretation addresses the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under guarantees. It also clarifies the requirements related to the recognition of a liability by a guarantor at the inception of a guarantee for the obligations the guarantor has undertaken in issuing that guarantee. We adopted this statement in January 2003.
In the past we have provided trade guarantees on behalf of our 30% owned affiliate, NGTS, LLC. In the event that NGTS, LLC is unable to fulfill its obligations with certain vendors, we would be obligated for cash payments of up to $600 thousand to these vendors. We have not recorded these as a liability on our books at June 30, 2003 because we do not expect to have to perform under these guarantees. The last of these guarantees expires in July 2003, and we do not intend to issue any additional guarantees on behalf of NGTS, LLC. Further, we have elected to sell our interest in NGTS, LLC (see Note 11). We have provided no other guarantees on behalf of any unconsolidated entities and do not intend to issue any.

In June 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, which requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. In July 2001, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which discontinues the practice of amortizing goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets and initiates an annual review of impairment. Intangible assets with a determinable useful life will continue to be amortized over that period. The amortization provisions apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 and 142 clarify that more assets should be distinguished and classified between tangible and intangible. We did not change or reclassify contractual mineral rights included in proved and unproved oil and gas properties on our balance sheet upon adoption of SFAS No. 142. We believe the treatment of such mineral rights as tangible assets under the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties is appropriate. An issue has been raised regarding whether these mineral rights should be classified as tangible or intangible assets. If it is determined that reclassification is necessary, we would have reduced our proven properties by $352.7 million, decreased unproved properties by $154.5 million and reported intangible mineral rights related to proved properties of $352.7 million and intangible mineral rights related to unproved properties of $154.5 million at December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, we would have reduced our proven properties by $336.4 million, reduced our unproved properties by $165.6 million, and reported intangible mineral rights related to proved properties of $336.4 million and intangible mineral rights related to unproved properties of $165.6 million. These reclassifications represent the cost of acquiring proved and unproved mineral use rights from the effective date of June 30, 2001. The provisions of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 impact only the balance sheet and any associated footnote disclosures. Any reclassifications potentially required would not impact our cash flows or statements of income.
Beginning June 1, 2003, we began expensing the fair market value of stock options newly granted, modified or settled pursuant to SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and as allowed under the prospective method of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an amendment to SFAS No. 123. The fair value of each option granted after December 31, 2002 is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded stock compensation expense of $433 thousand, which is reflected in our general and administrative expenses. For options granted prior to January 1, 2003, we continue to use the intrinsic method under APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and Related Interpretations, whereby no compensation expense is recognized for stock options granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of our stock on the grant date.
If we had recorded stock option expense under the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 for all grants, our net income and EPS would have been as shown in the below pro forma tables (in thousands):

In June 2001, SFAS No. 141 Business Combinations and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and other Intangible Assets were issued to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules in these statements, goodwill is no longer amortized, but is subject to annual impairment tests. We completed the first of these tests at December 31, 2002 and found no impairment. Changes to the carrying value of goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2003 are as follows:
Balance at December 31, 2002 | $ | 50,710 | |||
Purchase price adjustments | 7,753 | ||||
Balance at June 30, 2003 | $ | 58,463 | |||
Our goodwill results from our merger with Prize, and the purchase price allocation was finalized as of June 30, 2003. The goodwill has been fully allocated to our Exploration and Production segment.
SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, became effective beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 143 requires the recognition of a fair value liability for any retirement obligations associated with long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and depreciated over the assets useful life. Prior to adopting SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003, we accounted for asset retirement obligations in accordance with SFAS No. 19.
Our long-lived assets captured under SFAS No. 143 are developed oil and gas properties, production and distribution facilities, and natural gas processing plants. Our asset retirement obligations include plugging, abandonment, decommission and remediation costs.

The following pro forma data summarizes our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as if we had adopted SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2002. The associated pro forma asset retirement obligation was $16.9 million on January 1, 2002 and an additional asset retirement obligation of $12.9 million would have been recorded at March 1, 2002 in conjunction with the Prize acquisition.

On January 27, 2003, we redeemed $30 million in principal of our 10% Senior Notes at a redemption price of 105% of par. We paid the holders of the redeemed Notes $31.5 million plus accrued and unpaid interest of $467 thousand. Of the $30 million redeemed, Canvasback received $2.3 million. On June 2, 2003, we redeemed an additional $50 million in principal of our 10% Senior Notes at a redemption price of 103.333% of par. We paid the holders of the redeemed Notes $51.7 million including accrued and unpaid interest of $14 thousand. Of the $50 million redeemed during the second quarter, Canvasback received $3.7 million.
We amended our Senior Bank Credit Facility (the Facility) on May 2, 2003. The amended Facility provides for a borrowing base increase of $50 million to $300 million, up from $250 million previously. Additionally, the expiration date of the Facility was extended to May 2, 2006. We used the increased borrowing capacity to fund the June 2, 2003 Note redemption.
We amended our term note payable (the Term Loan) on July 2, 2003. The amended Term Loan allows for additional advances of up to $5 million for the purpose of additional Note repurchases. The maturity date was also extended to May 31, 2005.
SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as extended by SFAS No. 137 (June 1999) and amended by SFAS No. 138 (June 2000), was effective beginning January 2001. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires the recognition of derivatives in the balance sheet and the measurement of those instruments at fair value.
We were obligated to nine crude oil derivatives, thirteen natural gas derivatives, and two interest rate derivatives on June 30, 2003. All outstanding derivatives qualify for cash flow hedge accounting treatment as defined within SFAS No. 133, which requires derivative assets and liabilities to be recorded at their fair value on the balance sheet with an offset to other comprehensive income. Hedge ineffectiveness on cash-flow hedges is recorded in earnings.

At June 30, 2003, the fair value of the companys derivatives were as follows (in thousands):
Derivative Liabilities |
|||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Natural gas collars | $ | 37,658 | |||
Natural gas swaps | 3,854 | ||||
Crude oil collars | 3,670 | ||||
Crude oil swaps | 1,784 | ||||
Interest rate swaps | 392 | ||||
Total derivative liabilities | $ | 47,358 | |||
Of the $47.4 million derivative liability, $39.6 million is included in trade payables and accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2003.
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, the statement of operations includes a non-cash hedging ineffectiveness loss of $157 thousand and $112 thousand, respectively, related to the crude oil and natural gas derivatives. Additionally, during this similar period, our statement of operations includes a non-cash gain of $324 thousand and $648 thousand, respectively, related to the amortization of hedge contracts acquired in the Prize merger. The remaining amortization amounts relating to hedge contracts acquired in the Prize merger that will be reclassified into the operations statement in years 2003 and 2004 are a $0.6 million gain and $0.8 million gain, respectively. It is estimated at this time that $26.6 million of other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into the income statement during the next 12 months.
On May 1, 2003, we closed out 20,000 Mmbtu/d of natural gas collar hedges for the period June through December 2003. In closing these contracts, we locked in a $5.7 million loss which will be recognized in earnings with the underlying forecasted commodity sales transactions for the months of June through December 2003. At June 30, 2003, the remaining balance was $5.0 million.
We have three reportable segments. The Exploration and Production segment is engaged in exploratory and developmental drilling and acquisition, production, and sale of crude oil, condensate, and natural gas. The Gas Gathering, Marketing and Processing segment is engaged in the gathering and compression of natural gas from the wellhead, the purchase and resale of natural gas which it gathers, and the processing of natural gas liquids. The Oil Field Services segment is engaged in the managing and operation of producing oil and gas properties for interest owners.
Our reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different technology and marketing strategies. The Exploration and Production segment has six geographic areas that are aggregated. The Gas Gathering, Marketing and Processing segment includes the activities of the three gathering systems and four natural gas liquids processing plants in four geographic areas that are aggregated. The Oil Field Services segment has six geographic areas that are aggregated. The reason for aggregating the segments, in each case, is due to the similarity in nature of the products, the production processes, the type of customers, the method of distribution, and the regulatory environments.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those for the company as a whole. We evaluate performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes. The accounting for intersegment sales and transfers is done as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices.

The company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, except Canvasback, are direct guarantors of our 10% Senior Notes and 9.6% Senior Notes and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Notes on a joint and several basis. In addition to not being a guarantor of the companys 10% Senior Notes and 9.6% Senior Notes, Canvasback cannot be included in determining compliance with certain financial covenants under the companys credit agreements. We have concluded that separate financial statements related to the guarantors are not included because management has determined that they are not material to investors. Condensed consolidating financial information for Magnum Hunter Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, was as follows:

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes associated with them contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment by our management.
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 except for accounting for asset retirement obligations, accounting for gains and losses from extinguishment of debt, and accounting for stock-based compensation. SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, became effective for us beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 143 requires the recognition of a fair value liability for any retirement obligations associated with long-lived assets. The offset to any liability recorded is added to the recorded asset, and the additional amount is depreciated over the same period as the long-lived asset for which the retirement obligation is established. SFAS No. 145, Recission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections, was effective for us beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 145 requires us to classify gains and losses from debt extinguishment as additional interest expense. In June 2003, we began expensing stock-based compensation expense pursuant to SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as allowed under the prospective method of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an amendment to SFAS No. 123. Under these statements, all stock options granted, modified or settled after December 31, 2002 will be expensed based on their fair values determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For a discussion of our other critical accounting policies, refer to our Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2002.
During the first quarter of 2002, we merged with Prize Energy Corp. (Prize), an independent oil and gas development and production company based in Grapevine, Texas. The merger with Prize closed on March 15, 2002, but for operating and financial reporting purposes, was effective as of March 1, 2002. As such, the results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 include three months and four months of operating contributions from Prize, respectively.
Subsequent to the Prize merger, we have divested of approximately 83.6 billion cubic feet equivalent of non-strategic proved producing oil and gas reserves for total proceeds of approximately $115 million. Almost all of the properties sold were acquired in the Prize merger, and the proceeds have been used to reduce our overall indebtedness and fund our capital program. These proceeds include the $13.4 million package of non-strategic South Louisiana oil and gas properties which closed June 9, 2003. The impact of these non-strategic divestitures are described below in our results of operations.
Throughout this document, we make statements that are classified as forward-looking. Please refer to the Forward-Looking Statements section of this document for an explanation of these types of assertions.
Our results of operations have been significantly affected by our past success in acquiring oil and gas properties at the bottom of the commodity price cycles and our ability to maintain or increase oil and natural gas production through our exploration and exploitation activities. Fluctuations in oil and gas prices have also significantly affected the results of operations.

We reported net income of $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, as compared to net income of $2.3 million for the same period in 2002, an increase of 83%. Total operating revenues increased 3% to $78.4 million in 2003 from $76.2 million in 2002. Operating profit increased 2% to $21.4 million in 2003 from $21.1 million in 2002, and net income before income tax increased 89% to $6.8 million in 2003 from $3.6 million in 2002. The growth in operating revenues and operating profit was predominately generated by our gathering, marketing, and processing segment. This was offset by small declines in operating revenues and operating profit recorded in our exploration and production and oil field services segments due to non-strategic divestitures. The growth in pretax income was caused by a $167 thousand non-cash hedging adjustment gain in the 2003 period versus a $3.3 million loss recorded in the 2002 period, a valuation adjustment loss of $621 thousand recorded in the 2002 period versus none in the 2003 period, and a $2.2 million cost associated with early retirement of debt in the 2003 period versus none in the 2002 period. We recorded an 86% increase in deferred income tax expense of $2.6 million for the three months in 2003 versus $1.4 million for the same period in 2002, due to the increase in pre-tax income. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.06 in the 2003 period versus basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.03 in the 2002 period, a gain of 100%. The increase in net income was the primary factor causing the increase in basic and diluted earnings per share. Common shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation declined by 4% in the 2003 period compared to the 2002 period, principally due to our stock repurchase program.
Exploration and Production Operations:
For the three months ended June 30, 2003, we reported oil production of approximately one million barrels and gas production of 12.5 billion cubic feet, which represents a decrease of 12% in oil produced and a decrease of 7% in gas produced from the comparable period in 2002. Our reported equivalent daily rate of production, on a million cubic feet per day basis (Mmcfe/day), decreased 8% to 203.5 Mmcfe/day in the 2003 period from 222.2 Mmcfe/day
19
in the 2002 period. These decreases were primarily the result of the sale of non-strategic oil and gas properties which were initiated after the Prize acquisition which closed in March 2002. These non-strategic property sales continued into June 2003. The impact of these property sales on reported production was a decrease of 32.4 Mmcfe/day in the 2003 period compared to the similar 2002 period.
Oil revenues decreased 5% to $26.3 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $27.6 million for the same period in 2002. The oil price received, after hedging effects, was $26.35 per Bbl in the 2003 period compared to $24.40 per Bbl in the 2002 period, an increase of 8%. Gas revenues decreased 2% to $42.1 million in the second quarter of 2003 versus $42.9 million for the same period in 2002. The gas price received, after hedging effects, was $3.37 per Mcf in 2003 compared to $3.20 per Mcf for the same period in 2002, an increase of 5%. Total oil and gas revenues decreased 3% to $68.5 million in 2003 from $70.5 million in 2002. The decline in oil and gas revenues is attributable to the production loss as a result of the sale of non-strategic oil and gas properties.
From time to time, we enter into various commodity hedging contracts in order to reduce our exposure to the possibility of declining oil and gas prices which provides a basic level of cash flow to fund capital expenditures. During the 2003 period, hedging decreased the average price we received for oil by $1.75 per Bbl and decreased the average price we received for gas by $1.20 per Mcf. During the second quarter of 2003, we had approximately 60.0 MMcf/day of gas hedged through fixed price swaps with a weighted average price of $3.01 per MMbtu and approximately 40.0 MMcf/day of gas hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $3.06 per MMbtu and a weighted average ceiling price of $4.30 per MMbtu. Approximately 73% of second quarter 2003 natural gas production was hedged. On the crude side, we had approximately 1,000 Bbls/day hedged through fixed price swaps with a weighted average price of $21.25 per barrel and approximately 6,000 Bbls/day hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $23.00 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of $27.00 per Bbl. Approximately 64% of second quarter 2003 crude oil production was hedged. For the remainder of 2003, we have approximately 10.0 MMcf/day hedged through fixed price swaps with a weighted average price of $3.65 per MMbtu and approximately 70.0 MMcf/day hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $2.82 and a weighted average ceiling price of $3.78. In addition, for the remainder of 2003, we have hedged 1,000 Bbls/day of crude oil production through a fixed price swap with a price of $21.25 per Bbl and 6,000 Bbls/day of crude oil production hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $23.00 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of $27.00 per Bbl.
On May 1, 2003, we closed out 20,000 Mmbtu/day of natural gas collar hedges for the period June through December 2003. In closing these contracts, we locked in a $5.7 million loss which will be recognized in earnings with the underlying forecasted commodity sales transactions for the months of June through December 2003. At June 30, 2003, the remaining balance was $5.0 million.
Lease operating expense consists of lifting costs and production tax as well as other costs. For the 2003 period, lifting costs were $13.5 million versus $15.4 million in the 2002 period, a decrease of 13%. Production taxes and other costs were unchanged at $7.9 million in both the 2003 period and the 2002 period. The decreases in lifting costs were primarily attributable to the sale of non-strategic oil and gas properties and due to lower costs associated with workover and remedial operations in the 2003 period compared to the 2002 period. For the 2003 period, lifting costs, on a unit of production basis, were $0.73 per Mcfe as compared to $0.76 per Mcfe in the 2002 period, a decrease of 4%. Production tax and other costs were $0.43 per Mcfe in the 2003 period compared to $0.39 per Mcfe in the 2002 period, an increase of 10%. The increase in production taxes was caused by an increase in commodity prices received during the 2003 period.
Our gross margin realized from exploration and production operations (oil and gas revenues less lease operating expenses) for the 2003 period was $47.0 million, or $2.54 per Mcfe, compared to $47.2 million, or $2.34 per Mcfe in the 2002 period, an increase of 9% on a per unit of production basis, as a result of a 6% increase in revenue per Mcfe, offset by a 1% increase in lease operating expense per Mcfe.
Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion of oil and gas properties was $24.1 million in 2003 versus $22.5 million in 2002. The 2003 period included accretion expense related to asset retirement obligations (due to the adoption of SFAS No. 143) of $601 thousand. On a unit of production basis, depreciation and depletion expense was $1.27 per Mcfe produced in the 2003 period versus $1.11 per Mcfe produced in the 2002 period. This 14% increase in the equivalent unit cost was due primarily to an increase in development costs and shorter reserve life properties associated with our activities in the Gulf of Mexico.
20
Segment profit for exploration and production operations was $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 versus $24.7 million for the same period in 2002, a decrease of 7%, principally due to the increase in depreciation, depletion and accretion expense.
Gathering, Marketing and Processing Operations:
For the three months ended June 30, 2003, our gas gathering system throughput was 16.4 MMcf/day versus 15.2 MMcf/day for the same period in 2002, an increase of 8%, due to increased production from development drilling activities conducted by the company behind the gathering system. Gas processing throughput was 26.8 MMcf/day in 2003 versus 21.3 MMcf/day in 2002, an increase of 26%. This increase is primarily due to increased production from new well hookups behind two of our processing plants and to the shutdown of one processing plant for most of one month in the 2002 period for scheduled maintenance.
Revenues from gas gathering, marketing and processing increased 97% to $9.1 million in 2003 versus $4.6 million in 2002. Operating costs for the gas gathering, marketing and processing segment increased 99% to $6.9 million in 2003 from $3.5 million in 2002. Both the revenues and operating cost increases were the result of increased gas processing throughput and higher commodity prices.
The gross margin realized from gas gathering, marketing and processing for the 2003 period was $2.2 million versus $1.1 million in the 2002 period, an increase of 92%. The gas gathering margin was $0.06 per Mcf gathered in 2003 versus $0.11 per Mcf in 2002 due to lower gas marketing profits. The gas processing margin was $0.84 per Mcf in 2003 compared to $0.48 per Mcf in 2002, due to improved plant processing economics.
Depreciation expense for gas gathering, marketing and processing operations for the 2003 period was $577 thousand versus $544 thousand for the same period in 2002, an increase of 6% due to capital additions.
Segment profit for gas gathering, marketing and processing operations was $1.6 million in the 2003 period versus $586 thousand for the 2002 period, an increase of 172%, principally due to higher throughput and improved processing economics at our natural gas processing plants.
Oil Field Management Services Operations:
Revenues from oil field management services decreased 13% to $913 thousand in the first quarter of 2003 versus $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2002. This decrease is primarily due to a reduction in the operating fees under our operating agreements associated with the sale of non-strategic oil and gas properties subsequent to the Prize merger. Operating costs increased 9% to $593 thousand in 2003 from $543 thousand in 2002, due to higher overhead costs. The gross margin for this segment in 2003 was $320 thousand versus $508 thousand in 2002, a decrease of 37%, due to increased overhead costs. Depreciation expense was $149 thousand in the 2003 period versus $133 thousand in the 2002 period, an increase of 12%, due to capital additions. Segment profit was $173 thousand for the three months in 2003 versus $375 thousand for the same period in 2002.
Other Income and Expenses:
Total depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense was $25.0 million in the 2003 period versus $23.5 million in the similar 2002 period, an increase of 6%. This is primarily the result of the increased depletion and accretion rates in our exploration and production segment.
General and administrative expense for 2003 decreased 25% to $3.2 million from $4.2 million in 2002. The principal reason for this decrease was the costs associated with the Prize merger that were recorded in the 2002 period. We recorded equity in losses of affiliate of $525 thousand in 2003 versus earnings of $81 thousand in 2002. This decrease was mainly due to the reduction of the carrying value of our investment in NGTS by $719 thousand to state it at its realizable value. Other income was $260 thousand for 2003 versus $108 thousand in 2002, caused by an increase in interest income. The company recognized a $167 thousand gain in other non-cash hedging adjustments in 2003 versus a $3.3 million loss in 2002. In the 2003 period, $324 thousand of the hedging gain relates to the amortization of commodity hedge assets acquired in the Prize merger, while a loss of $157 thousand was due to recording hedge ineffectiveness.
21
We incurred costs associated with the early retirement of debt of $2.2 million in the three months of 2003 versus none in the same period of 2002. The 2003 period costs were associated with the $50 million early redemption of our 10% Senior Notes in June 2003 at 103.333% of par.
Interest expense was $12.4 million for 2003 versus $13.7 million for 2002, as a result of a decrease in our 10.0% Senior Notes outstanding and lower interest rates on our senior bank credit facility. Our weighted average interest rate paid under our senior bank credit facility was 3.4% in the 2003 period versus 3.9% in the 2002 period.
The effective tax rate was 38.2% and 37.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The variance from the statutory rate of 35% was primarily due to state income taxes.
We reported net income of $12.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, as compared to net income of $9.7 million for the same period in 2002, an increase of 26%. Total operating revenues increased 33% to $158.5 million in 2003 from $119.3 million in 2002. Operating profit increased 56% to $47.4 million in 2003 from $30.4 million in 2002, and net income before income tax increased 352% to $19.0 million in 2003 from $4.2 million in 2002, due primarily to the Prize merger and increases in commodity prices in the 2003 period compared to the 2002 period. We recorded deferred income tax expense of $7.2 million for the first six months of 2003 versus a deferred tax benefit of $5.5 million for the same period in 2002. The 2002 period income tax benefit resulted from the elimination of the $7.1 million valuation allowance that had been carried against deferred tax assets derived from net operating loss carryovers by Magnum Hunter. As a result of the Prize merger, we believe that this tax asset can be fully realized. Additionally, the 2003 period includes the cumulative effect on prior years of a change in accounting principle due to the adoption of SFAS No. 143 relating to asset retirement obligations. The cumulative effect was a gain of $399 thousand, net of income tax expense of $244 thousand, or $0.01 per share, both basic and diluted. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.18 in the 2003 period versus basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.18 and $0.17, respectively, in the 2002 period. Basic and diluted shares outstanding increased 20% and 19%, respectively, in the 2003 period primarily as a result of new shares issued in the Prize merger. The change in basic and diluted earnings per share was a result of increased net income reduced by the effect of an increase in total shares outstanding.
Exploration and Production Operations:
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, we reported oil production of approximately two million barrels and gas production of 23.8 billion cubic feet, which represents an increase of 9% in oil produced and an increase of 6% in gas produced from the 1.8 million barrels of oil and 22.5 billion cubic feet of gas reported in the comparable period during 2002. Our reported equivalent daily rate of production on a million cubic feet per day basis (Mmcfe/day) increased 7% to 196.6 Mmcfe/day in the 2003 period from 184.0 Mmcfe/day in the 2002 period. These increases were primarily the result of the merger with Prize and the success of our drilling program offsetting both normal production declines and the sale of non-strategic oil and gas properties subsequent to the Prize merger.
Oil revenues increased 26% to $52.5 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to $41.7 million for the same period in 2002. The oil price received, after hedging effects, was $26.85 per Bbl in the 2003 period compared to $23.15 per Bbl for the same period in 2002, an increase of 16%. Gas revenues increased 26% to $85.5 million in the first six months of 2003 versus $68.0 million for the same period in 2002. The gas price received, after hedging effects, was $3.59 per Mcf in the 2003 period compared to $3.02 per Mcf for the same period in 2002, an increase of 19%.
From time to time we enter into various commodity hedging contracts in order to reduce our exposure to the possibility of declining oil and gas prices which provides a base level of cash flow to fund capital expenditures. During the 2003 period, hedging decreased the average price we received for oil by $3.37 per Bbl and decreased the average price we received for gas by $1.68 per Mcf. During the first half of 2003, we had approximately 60.0 MMcf/day of gas hedged through fixed price swaps with a weighted average price of $3.01 per MMbtu and approximately 40.0 MMcf/day of gas hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $3.06 per MMbtu and a weighted average ceiling price of $4.30 per MMbtu. Approximately 76% of the first six months of 2003 natural gas production was hedged. On the crude side, we had approximately 1,000 Bbls/day hedged through fixed price swaps with a weighted average price of $21.25 per barrel and approximately 6,000 Bbls/day
22
hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $23.00 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of $27.00 per Bbl. Approximately 65% of the first six months of 2003 crude oil production was hedged. For the remainder of 2003, we have approximately 10.0 MMcf/day hedged through fixed price swaps with a weighted average price of $3.65 per MMbtu and approximately 70.0 MMcf/day hedged through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $2.82 and a weighted average ceiling price of $3.78. In addition, for the remainder of 2003, we have hedged 1,000 Bbls/day of crude oil production through a fixed price swap with a price of $21.25 per Bbl and 6,000 Bbls/day of crude oil production through cost-less collars with a weighted average floor price of $23.00 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of $27.00 per Bbl.
On May 1, 2003, we closed out 20,000 Mmbtu/day of natural gas collar hedges for the period of June through December 2003. In closing these contracts, we locked in a $5.7 million loss which will be recognized in earnings with the underlying forecasted commodity sales transactions for the months of June through December 2003. At June 30, 2003, the remaining balance was $5.0 million.
Lease operating expense consists of lifting costs and production tax and other costs. For the 2003 period, lifting costs were $26.4 million versus $24.4 million in the 2002 period, an increase of 8%. Production taxes and other costs were $17.1 million in the 2003 period versus $12.2 million in the 2002 period, an increase of 40%. Both increases were primarily attributable to the Prize merger and increased commodity prices. For the 2003 period, lifting costs, on a unit of production basis, were $0.74 per Mcfe as compared to $0.73 per Mcfe in the 2002 period, an increase of 1%. Production tax and other costs were $0.48 per Mcfe in the 2003 period compared to $0.37 per Mcfe in the 2002 period, an increase of 30%. The increase in production taxes was caused by an increase in commodity prices received during the 2003 period.
Our gross margin realized from exploration and production operations (oil and gas revenues less lease operating expenses) for the first half of 2003 was $94.5 million, or $2.66 per Mcfe, compared to $73.1 million, or $2.19 per Mcfe in the 2002 period, an increase of 21% on a per unit of production basis. This is the result of an 18% increase in revenue per Mcfe, offset by a 11% increase in lease operating expense per Mcfe.
Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion of oil and gas properties was $44.7 million in the first half of 2003 versus $37.1 million in 2002. The 2003 period included accretion expense related to asset retirement obligations (due to the adoption of SFAS No. 143) of $1.2 million. On a unit of production basis, depreciation and depletion expense was $1.22 per Mcfe produced in the 2003 period versus $1.11 per Mcfe produced in the 2002 period. This 10% increase in the equivalent unit cost was due primarily to an increase in development costs and shorter reserve life properties associated with our activities in the Gulf of Mexico.
Segment profit for exploration and production operations was $49.8 million for the first six months of 2003 versus $36.0 million for the same period in 2002, an increase of 38%, primarily due to properties acquired in the Prize merger.
Gathering, Marketing and Processing Operations:
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, our gas gathering system throughput was 15.9 MMcf/day versus 15.2 MMcf/day for the same period in 2002, an increase of 5%. Gas processing throughput was 24.8 MMcf/day in 2003 versus 19.6 MMcf/day in 2002, an increase of 27%. This increase is primarily due to the acquisition of a 100% owned interest in the Elmore City processing plant as a result of the Prize merger.
Revenues from gas gathering, marketing and processing increased 125% to $18.4 million in 2003 versus $8.2 million in 2002. Operating costs for the gas gathering, marketing and processing segment increased 118% to $13.4 million in 2003 from $6.1 million in 2002. Both the revenues and operating cost increases were the result of increased gas processing throughput and higher commodity prices.
The gross margin realized from gas gathering, marketing and processing operations for the 2003 period was $5.0 million versus $2.0 million in the 2002 period, an increase of 147%. The gas gathering margin was $0.12 per Mcf gathered in both 2003 and in 2002. The gas processing margin increased 134% to $1.03 per Mcf in 2003 compared to $0.44 per Mcf in 2002, due to the addition of the Elmore City plant and improved plant processing economics.
23
Depreciation expense for gas gathering, marketing and processing operations for the 2003 period was $1.2 million versus $914 thousand for the same period in 2002, an increase of 26% due to the addition of the Elmore City plant which came from the Prize merger.
Segment profit for gas gathering, marketing and processing operations was $3.9 million in the first half of 2003 versus $1.1 million for the 2002 period, an increase of 265%, principally due to assets acquired in the Prize merger and improved natural gas processing economics.
Oil Field Management Services Operations:
Revenues from oil field management services increased 38% to $2.0 million in the 2003 period versus $1.4 million in the 2002 period. This increase is primarily due to an increase in the number of properties operated as a result of the Prize merger. Operating costs increased 77% to $1.5 million in 2003 from $819 thousand in 2002, also due to costs associated with the Prize merger. The gross margin for this segment in 2003 was $542 thousand versus $624 thousand in 2002, a decrease of 13%, due to overhead costs charged. Depreciation expense was $295 thousand in the 2003 period versus $238 thousand in the 2002 period, an increase of 24% due to capital additions. Segment profit was $248 thousand for the 2003 period versus $386 thousand for the same period in 2002.
Other Income and Expenses:
Total depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense was $46.5 million in the 2003 period versus $38.6 million in the 2002 period, an increase of 20% primarily as a result of increased production due to the Prize merger.
General and administrative expense for 2003 decreased 6% to $6.3 million from $6.7 million in 2002. The 2002 period included costs related to the merger with Prize. We recorded equity in losses of affiliate of $237 thousand in 2003 versus earnings of $382 thousand in 2002, mainly due to the reduction of the carrying value of our investment in NGTS by $719 thousand to state it at its realizable value. Other income was $378 thousand for 2003 versus $165 thousand in 2002, caused by an increase in interest income. The company recognized a $536 thousand gain in other non-cash hedging adjustments in 2003 versus a $3.9 million loss in 2002. In the 2003 period, $648 thousand of the hedging gain relates to the amortization of commodity hedge assets acquired in conjunction with the Prize merger, while a loss of $112 thousand was due to recording hedge ineffectiveness.
We incurred costs associated with the early retirement of debt of $4.1 million during the first six months of 2003 versus $1.0 million in the same period of 2002. The 2003 period costs were associated with the $30 million and $50 million redemption of our 10% Senior Notes at 105% of par and 103.333% of par in January and June 2003, respectively. The 2002 period costs were associated with the amendment of our senior bank credit facility in connection with the Prize merger.
Interest expense was $25.0 million for 2003 versus $21.2 million for 2002, an increase of 18%, principally due to the placement of $300 million of 9.6% Senior Notes in March 2002 as a result of the Prize merger. Our weighted average interest rate paid under our senior bank credit facility was reduced to 3.4% in the 2003 period from 4.1% in the 2002 period.
The effective tax rate was 38.1% and (132.0)% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The variance from the statutory rate of 35% was primarily due to state income taxes in the 2003 period and to the release of the valuation allowance on previously reserved deferred tax assets in the 2002 period.
CASH FLOW AND WORKING CAPITAL. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six month periods in 2003 and 2002 was $101.4 million and $537 thousand, respectively. The substantial increase in our operating cash flows in 2003 over 2002 was primarily the result of large payments in the first quarter of 2002 on trade payables which had accumulated at year-end as well as current liability balances acquired in the merger with Prize. We also benefited in the 2003 period from the return of $8.9 million in margins we had been required to post on certain commodity hedged positions and another $7.8 million received in net state and federal tax refunds. Our net working capital position at June 30, 2003 was a deficit of $56.7 million. On that date, we had $84.5 million available to be drawn under our $300 million Senior Bank credit facility. A large factor in our working capital deficit at June 30,
24
2003 is our current derivative liability of $39.6 million, partially offset by current deferred tax assets of $15 million, which we have recorded on our hedged positions for the next twelve months due to continued increases in commodities prices over our hedged prices. If actual commodities prices realized remain higher than our hedged prices on these positions, our resulting higher cash proceeds received on our production will offset any actual amounts paid out related to these liabilities.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES. Net cash used in investing activities was $88 million in the 2003 six month period. We made capital expenditures of $97.3 million under our capital budget during 2003. Our capital expenditures are discussed in further detail below. For 2003, we also received proceeds from the sale of assets of $9 million, net of certain purchase price adjustments related to both 2002 and 2003 divestitures.
In the 2002 six month period, net cash used in investing activities was $98 million. We made cash expenditures of $56.2 million under our capital budget during 2002. Additionally, during 2002, we made a loan of $2.4 million to an affiliate, received proceeds from sale of assets of $1.7 million, and used $41.1 million associated with the Prize merger.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES. Net cash used by financing activities was $7.2 million in the 2003 six month period. We borrowed a total of $248.6 million, of which we repaid $167.6 million. We paid $450 thousand in fees related to the amended Senior Bank credit facility, loaned $2.7 million to the ESOP to purchase shares for the plan, purchased treasury stock for $7.4 million, made a loan to an unconsolidated affiliate of $225 thousand, had an increase in restricted cash of $262 thousand, purchased common stock for our deferred compensation plan of $295 thousand, paid $76.9 million (net of Canvasback redemption) to redeem $80 million in principal of our 10% Notes, and received net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $75 thousand. Our financing activities are discussed in further detail below.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $102.6 million in the 2002 six month period. We borrowed a total of $592.2 million, including $300 million in new 9.6% Senior Notes during the period. We also repaid borrowings of $461.4 million, including $155.7 million to pay off the previous bank credit facility, $245.8 million to pay off the Prize bank credit facility in connection with the merger, and the remainder to pay off other indebtedness. We paid $11.8 million in fees related to the newly issued 9.6% Senior Notes and the new Senior Bank credit facility (the Facility), loaned $2.7 million to the ESOP, purchased treasury stock for $13.8 million, purchased warrants for $98 thousand, and made a loan to a stockholder and executive officer for $175 thousand.
CAPITAL RESOURCES. The following discussion of Magnum Hunters capital resources refers to the company and our affiliates. Internally generated cash flow and the borrowing capacity under our Facility are our major sources of liquidity. From time to time, we may also sell non-strategic properties in order to increase liquidity. In addition, we may use other sources of capital, including the issuance of additional debt securities or equity securities, as sources to fund acquisitions or other specific needs. In the past, we have accessed both the public and private capital markets to provide liquidity for specific activities and general corporate purposes.
We amended our Facility in May 2003. The amended Facility provides for total borrowings of $300 million, up $50 million from the prior $250 million borrowing base. Additionally, the expiration date of the Facility was extended to May 2, 2006. The increase in borrowing capacity was used to retire an additional $50 million of our 10% Senior Notes at 103.333% of par plus accrued interest, or approximately $51.7 million on June 2, 2003. At June 30, 2003, we had $84.5 million available under this Facility.
On June 9, 2003, we sold certain oil and gas properties considered to be non-strategic assets for $13.4 million, subject to certain purchase price adjustments.
On March 7, 2002, Canvasback entered into a $10.0 million revolving credit agreement with a financial institution. This loan is collateralized by the 10% Senior Notes Canvasback owns. During 2002, this revolving loan was converted into a $7 million term loan. The proceeds of $6.1 million received by Canvasback as a result of the bond redemptions were used to reduce the outstanding balance to $932 thousand. In July 2003, Canvasback amended its term loan to allow for additional advances of up to $5 million for the purpose of additional repurchases of our 10% Senior Notes. The maturity date was also extended to May 31, 2005.
On May 1, 2002, our Board of Directors announced an expansion of our existing stock repurchase program originally established in June 2001. The company or our affiliates were authorized to repurchase up to two million
25
shares of our common stock. On October 17, 2002, our Board of Directors approved a new three million share repurchase program. Approximately 4.2 million shares have been purchased through June 30, 2003 under these programs, and approximately 818 thousand shares remain available for repurchase.
On a semi-annual basis, our borrowing base under our Facility is redetermined by the financial institutions who have committed to the company based on their review of our proved oil and gas reserves and other assets. If the outstanding senior bank debt exceeds the redetermined borrowing base, the company must repay the excess. The next redetermination date will have an effective date of June 30, 2003 and will be completed no later than November 10, 2003. We do not anticipate a downward redetermination.
Our internally generated cash flow, results of operations, and financing for our operations are substantially dependent on oil and gas prices. To the extent that oil and gas prices decline, our earnings and cash flows may be adversely affected in spite of our commodity hedging activities. We believe that our cash flow from operations, existing working capital and availability under our Facility will be sufficient to meet interest payments and to fund the capital expenditure budget for the year 2003.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. During the 2003 six month period, our total capital expenditures were $97.3 million. Our management intentionally front end loaded the 2003 budget in an effort to capture low service costs and high commodity prices. Exploration activities accounted for $14.3 million, development activities accounted for $70.2 million, unproved property acquisitions accounted for $11.1 million, proved property acquisitions accounted for $1.4 million, and additions to other assets accounted for $402 thousand of the capital expenditures. We participated in the drilling of 60 wells during the 2003 period, of which 55 were deemed commercial, for a 92% overall success rate. Of the 60 wells drilled, 12 were exploratory wells, of which 7 were successful, and 48 were development wells, all of which were successful. As of June 30, 2003, we had total unproved oil and gas property costs of $180 million.
For calendar year 2003, we have budgeted approximately $115 million for exploration and development activities. We are not contractually obligated to proceed with any of our material budgeted capital expenditures. The amount and allocation of future capital expenditures will depend on a number of factors that are not entirely within our control or ability to forecast, including drilling results, oilfield service costs, and changes in oil and gas prices. As a result, actual capital expenditures may vary significantly from current expectations. In the normal course of business, we review opportunities for the possible acquisition of oil and gas reserves and activities related thereto. When potential acquisition opportunities are deemed consistent with our growth strategy, bids or offers in amounts and with terms acceptable to us may be submitted. It is uncertain whether any such bids or offers which may be submitted by us from time to time, will be acceptable to the sellers. In the event of a future significant acquisition, utilizing cash, we may require additional financing in connection therewith.

During the 2003 period, we experienced substantial increases in the price for both oil and gas compared to the same period in the previous year. The results of operations and cash flow of the company have been, and will continue to be, affected by the volatility in oil and gas prices. Should the company experience a significant increase in oil and gas prices that is sustained over a prolonged period, we would expect that there would also be a corresponding increase in oil and gas finding costs, lease acquisition costs, and operating expenses. Periodically, the company enters into futures, options, and swap contracts to reduce the effects of fluctuations in crude oil and gas prices. At inception, commodity hedge positions may not exceed 75% of the natural gas and 90% of the crude oil forecasted current (18 months) commodity production. For non-current (greater than 18 months) commodity production, at inception, commodity hedge positions for natural gas and crude oil may not exceed 75%. A portion of our oil and natural gas production will be subject to price fluctuations unless we enter into additional hedging transactions. For the remainder of 2003, we have approximately 60% of our combined crude oil and natural gas production hedged.
We market oil and gas for our own account, which exposes us to the attendant commodities risk. A significant portion of our gas production is currently sold to a 30% owned affiliate, NGTS, LLC, or end-users either on the spot market on a month-to-month basis at prevailing spot market prices, or under long-term contracts based on current spot market prices. We have elected to sell our interest in NGTS, LLC. Our ability to market our natural gas will not be impacted. We normally sell our oil under month-to-month contracts to a variety of purchasers.
SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as extended by SFAS No. 137 (June 1999) and amended by SFAS No. 138 (June 2000), was effective for the company beginning January 2001. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires the recognition of derivatives in the balance sheet and the measurement of those instruments at fair value.
We were obligated to nine crude oil derivatives, thirteen natural gas derivatives, and two interest rate derivatives on June 30, 2003. All outstanding derivatives qualify for cash flow hedge accounting treatment as defined within SFAS No. 133, which requires derivative assets and liabilities to be recorded at their fair value on the balance sheet with an offset to other comprehensive income. Hedge ineffectiveness on cash-flow hedges is recorded in earnings.
At June 30, 2003, the fair value of the companys derivatives was as follows (in thousands):
Derivative Liabilities |
|||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Natural gas collars | $ | 37,658 | |||
Natural gas swaps | 3,854 | ||||
Crude oil collars | 3,670 | ||||
Crude oil swaps | 1,784 | ||||
Interest rate swaps | 392 | ||||
Total derivative liabilities | $ | 47,358 | |||
Of the $47.4 million derivative liability, $39.6 million is included in trade payables and accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2003.
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, the statement of operations includes a non-cash hedging ineffectiveness loss of $157 thousand and $112 thousand, respectively, related to the crude oil and natural gas derivatives and a non-cash gain of $324 thousand and $648 thousand, respectively, related to the amortization of hedge contracts acquired in the Prize merger. The remaining amortization amounts relating to hedge contracts acquired in the Prize merger that will be reclassified into the operations statement in years 2003 and 2004 are a $0.6 million gain and $0.8 million gain, respectively. It is estimated at this time that $26.6 million of other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into the income statement during the next 12 months.
27
SFAS No. 143 SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, became effective beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 143 requires the recognition of a fair value liability for any retirement obligation associated with long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and depreciated over the assets useful life. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 143, we recorded an addition to oil and gas properties of $25.4 million, an asset retirement obligation of $30.4 million, a reduction of accumulated depletion of $5.6 million, and a pre-tax gain of $643 thousand.
SFAS No. 145 SFAS No. 145, Recission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections, became effective beginning January 1, 2003. The Statement rescinds, updates, clarifies and simplifies various existing accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, which required all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax effect. As a result, SFAS No. 145 requires us to reclassify as additional expense extraordinary items for debt extinguishment costs which did not meet the criteria as described in APB Opinion No. 30 Reporting the Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions.
SFAS No. 146 In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 supercedes EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). Statement 146 is to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.
SFAS No. 148 The FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment to FASB Statement No. 123, in December 2002. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123. Beginning June 1, 2003, we began expensing the fair market value of stock options newly granted, modified or settled pursuant to SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and as allowed under the prospective method of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an amendment to SFAS No. 123. The fair value of each option granted after December 31, 2002 is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded stock compensation expense of $433 thousand which is reflected in our general and administrative expenses. For options granted prior to January 1, 2003, we continue to use the intrinsic method under APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and Related Interpretations, whereby no compensation expense is recognized for stock options granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of our stock on the grant date.
If we had recorded stock option expense under the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 for all grants, our net income and EPS would have been as shown in the below pro forma tables (in thousands):

FIN No. 45 FIN No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, was issued in November 2002. This interpretation addresses the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under guarantees. It also clarifies the requirements related to the recognition of a liability by a guarantor at the inception of a guarantee for the obligations the guarantor has undertaken in issuing that guarantee. We adopted this statement in January 2003.
In the past we have provided trade guarantees on behalf of our 30% owned affiliate, NGTS, LLC. In the event that NGTS, LLC is unable to fulfill its obligations with certain vendors, we would be obligated for cash payments of up to $600 thousand to these vendors. We have not recorded these as a liability on our books at June 30, 2003 because we do not expect to have to perform under these guarantees. The last of these guarantees expires in July 2003, and we do not intend to issue any additional guarantees on behalf of NGTS, LLC. On July 29, 2003, we exercised our option to sell our 30% interest in NGTS, LLC. We have provided no other guarantees on behalf of any unconsolidated entities and do not intend to issue any.
In June 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, which requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. In July 2001, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which discontinues the practice of amortizing goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets and initiates an annual review of impairment. Intangible assets with a determinable useful life will continue to be amortized over that period. The amortization provisions apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 and 142 clarify that more assets should be distinguished and classified between tangible and intangible. We did not change or reclassify contractual mineral rights included in proved and unproved oil and gas properties on our balance sheet upon adoption of SFAS No. 142. We believe the treatment of such mineral rights as tangible assets under the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties is appropriate. An issue has been raised regarding whether these mineral rights should be classified as tangible or intangible assets. If it is determined that reclassification is necessary, we would have reduced our proven properties by $352.7 million, decreased unproved properties by $154.5 million and reported intangible mineral rights related to proved properties of $352.7 million and intangible mineral rights related to unproved properties of $154.5 million at December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, we would have reduced our proven properties by $336.4 million, reduced our unproved properties by $165.6 million, and reported intangible mineral rights related to proved properties of $336.4 million and intangible mineral rights related to unproved properties of $165.6 million. These reclassifications represent the cost of acquiring proved and unproved mineral use rights from the effective date of June 30, 2001. The provisions of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 impact only the balance sheet and any associated footnote disclosures. Any reclassifications potentially required would not impact our cash flows or statements of income.

Our operations are exposed to market risks primarily as a result of changes in commodity prices and interest rates. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
Commodity Price Swaps and Options
We produce, purchase, and sell crude oil, natural gas, condensate, and natural gas liquids. As a result, our financial results can be significantly impacted as these commodity prices fluctuate widely in response to changing market forces and conditions. We have previously engaged in oil and gas hedging activities and intend to continue to consider various hedging arrangements to realize commodity prices which we consider favorable. The company engages in hedging contracts for a portion of its oil and gas production through various contracts (Swap Agreements). The primary objective of these activities is to protect against significant decreases in price during the term of the hedge.
The Swap Agreements provide for separate contracts tied to the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) light sweet crude oil and Henry Hub natural gas, and the Inside FERC natural gas index price posting (Index). We have contracts which contain specific contracted prices (Swaps) that are settled monthly based on the differences between the contract prices and the specified Index prices for each month applied to the related contract volumes. To the extent the Index exceeds the contract price, we pay the spread, and to the extent the contract price exceeds the Index price, we receive the spread. In addition, we have combined option contracts which have agreed upon price floors and ceilings (Costless collars). To the extent the Index price exceeds the contract ceiling, we pay the spread between the ceiling and the Index price applied to the related contract volumes. To the extent the contract floor exceeds the Index, we receive the spread between the contract floor and the Index price applied to the related contract volumes.
To the extent we receive the spread between the contract price and the Index price applied to related contract volumes, we have a credit risk in the event of nonperformance of the counterparty to the agreement. We do not anticipate any material impact to our results of operations as a result of nonperformance by such parties.
We are contractually obligated to a counter-party to provide a margin deposit in the form of cash or bank letter of credit should the aggregate fair value of hedge contracts held with the counter-party exceed a predetermined value. Margins posted at June 30, 2003 totaled $400 thousand.

Based on future market prices at June 30, 2003, the fair value of open commodity hedging contracts was a liability of $47.0 million. If future market prices were to increase 10% from those in effect at June 30, 2003, the fair value of open contracts would be a liability of $85.5 million. If future market prices were to decline 10% from those in effect at June 30, 2003, the fair value of the open contracts would be a liability of $24.4 million.
At inception, commodity hedge positions may not exceed 75% of natural gas and 90% of crude oil forecasted current (18 months) commodity production. For non-current (greater than 18 months) commodity production, at inception, commodity hedge positions for natural gas and crude oil may not exceed 75%. Unhedged portions of our natural gas and crude oil production will be subject to market price fluctuations.

Interest Rate Swaps
On August 9, 2001, the company entered into two interest rate swaps in order to shift a portion of its variable rate bank debt to fixed rate debt. The following table reflects the terms of these swaps:
Type |
Notional Amount |
Termination Date |
Pay Rate |
Receive Rate |
---|---|---|---|---|
Pay Fixed/Receive Variable |
$50,000,000 | 8/23/03 | 4.25% Fixed | 3 month LIBOR (currently 1.27%) |
Based on the set rates at June 30, 2003, the fair value of outstanding contracts to the company was a liability of $392 thousand.
Fixed and Variable Rate Debt. The company uses fixed and variable rate debt to partially finance budgeted expenditures. These agreements expose the company to market risk related to changes in interest rates.
The following table presents the carrying and fair value of the companys debt along with average interest rates. Fair values are calculated as the net present value of the expected cash flows of the financial instruments, except for the fixed rate Senior Notes, which are valued at their last traded value before June 30, 2003.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the companys disclosure controls and procedures [as defined in Rules 240.13a-14 (c) and 15d-14 (c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934] as of a date within ninety days before the filing date of this quarterly report. Based on that review and evaluation, which included inquiries made to certain other employees of the company, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures, as designed and implemented, are reasonably adequate to ensure that they are provided with material information relating to the company required to be disclosed in the reports the company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There have not been any significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses and, therefore, no corrective actions were taken.
