CLAYTON WILLIAMS ENERGY ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS AND OPERATIONS UPDATE
Midland, Texas, October 24, 2013 (BUSINESS WIRE) - Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ-CWEI) today reported its financial results for the third quarter 2013.
Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2013
Net income attributable to Company stockholders for the third quarter of 2013 (“3Q13”) was $11 million, or $0.90 per share, as compared to a net loss of $7.2 million, or $0.59 per share, for the third quarter of 2012 (“3Q12”). Cash flow from operations for 3Q13 was $71 million as compared to $60.6 million for 3Q12.
For the nine-months ended September 30, 2013, net loss attributable to Company stockholders was $31.3 million, or $2.57 per share, as compared to net income of $33.4 million, or $2.75 per share, for the same period in 2012. Cash flow from operations for the nine-month period in 2013 was $153.9 million as compared to $157.9 million during the same period in 2012. The 2013 period included non-cash, pre-tax charges totaling $89.8 million to write down the carrying value of certain proved properties to their estimated fair value. The Company's adjusted net income, excluding the non-recurring charge, was $27.1 million.
The key factors affecting the comparability of financial results for 3Q13 versus 3Q12 were:
• | In April 2013, the Company sold 95% of its oil and gas reserves, leasehold interests and facilities located in Andrews County, Texas for $215.2 million, subject to customary closing adjustments, with $26.5 million being placed in escrow pending resolution of certain title requirements which the Company believes will be cured. As a result, reported oil and gas production, revenues and operating costs for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not comparable to reported amounts for periods in 2012. |
• | Oil and gas sales, excluding amortized deferred revenues, increased $2.7 million in 3Q13 versus 3Q12. Price variances accounted for a $13.3 million increase, and production variances accounted for a $10.6 million decrease. Average realized oil prices were $103.75 per barrel in 3Q13 versus $89.48 per barrel in 3Q12, and average realized gas prices were $3.49 per Mcf in 3Q13 versus $3.29 per Mcf in 3Q12. Oil and gas sales in 3Q13 also include $2.2 million of amortized deferred revenue versus $2.5 million in 3Q12 attributable to a volumetric production payment ("VPP"). Reported production and related average realized sales prices exclude volumes associated with the VPP. |
• | Oil, gas and natural gas liquids ("NGL") production per barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") declined 12% in 3Q13 as compared to 3Q12, with oil production decreasing 10% to 9,674 barrels per day, gas production decreasing 24% to 16,598 Mcf per day, and NGL production increasing 9% to 1,359 barrels per day. Oil and NGL production accounted for approximately 80% of the Company's total BOE production in 3Q13 versus 77% in 3Q12. See accompanying tables for additional information about the Company's oil and gas production. |
• | After giving effect to the Andrews sale discussed above, oil and gas production per BOE increased 4% in 3Q13 as compared to 3Q12, with oil production increasing 587 barrels per day, gas production decreasing 3,511 Mcf per day and NGL production increasing 500 barrels per day. |
• | Production costs decreased 21% to $25.7 million in 3Q13 from $32.6 million in 3Q12. After giving effect to the Andrews sale, production costs declined $1.8 million, or 6%, due primarily to lower salt water disposal costs and other cost savings resulting from infrastructure improvements in the Reeves County Wolfbone area. |
• | Loss on derivatives for 3Q13 was $8.3 million ($7.8 million non-cash mark-to-market loss and $455,000 realized loss on settled contracts) versus a loss in 3Q12 of $21.9 million ($20.5 million non-cash mark-to-market loss and $1.4 million realized loss on settled contracts). See accompanying tables for additional information about the Company's accounting for derivatives. |
• | General and administrative ("G&A") expenses were $10 million in 3Q13 versus $5.8 million in 3Q12. G&A expenses in 3Q12 related to accrued compensation expense from the Company's APO reward plans included a non-cash reversal of previously accrued compensation expense totaling $2.2 million as compared to a charge of $1.2 million in 3Q13. |
Capitalization and Liquidity
In September 2013, we issued an additional $250 million of aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Senior Notes due 2019. The notes were sold at 100% of par to yield 7.75% to maturity. The offering closed on October 1, 2013. The new notes and the 7.75% Senior Notes due 2019 originally issued on March 16, 2011 and April 29, 2011 will be treated as a single class of debt securities under the same indenture. The net proceeds from the offering was used to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
In October 2013, the Company entered into swap agreements with a counterparty covering 1 million barrels of its 2014 oil production at a price of $96.10 per barrel. See accompanying tables.
Operations Update
Delaware Basin
To date, the Company has drilled 70 vertical and 20 horizontal wells in its Delaware Basin resource play in Reeves, Loving, Ward and Winkler Counties, Texas, where the Company currently holds approximately 91,000 net acres and expects to earn up to 10,000 additional net acres under an existing farmout agreement. Presently, the Company is focused on drilling horizontal wells in the Wolfcamp A shale interval in Reeves County, with seven Wolfcamp A wells currently on production, two wells waiting on completion and three wells being drilled. The following table summarizes production and ownership data for the first five of the Company’s Wolfcamp A wells.
Peak 30-Day Rate (BOE/day)(a) | % Oil | % NGL | CWEI Net Revenue Interest | ||
Mean | 501 | 80 | % | 10% | 65% |
Median | 461 | 75 | % | 12% | 76% |
Low | 296 | 82 | % | 10% | 75% |
High | 782 | 84 | % | 8% | 56% |
(a) Oil, residue gas and NGL; gas converted to BOE at 6:1.
The peak 30-day rate for the last two wells included in the above table averaged 684 BOE/day, an increase of 48% over the median well. The Company attributes this improvement in production rates to more efficient hydraulic fracturing procedures based on data obtained through open-hole logs in the laterals.
The sixth Wolfcamp A well has been on production for less than 30 days, and to date has achieved a peak 10-day production rate of 977 BOE/day, and the seventh well is currently flowing back load water.
The Company plans to continue utilizing three drilling rigs in Reeves County with the primary target being the Wolfcamp A shale interval. Recent activity by offset operators suggests that the Wolfcamp B and C intervals could be commercially productive in the region, so the Company may also test those intervals to determine the feasibility of developmental drilling in multiple Wolfcamp shale intervals.
Eagle Ford Shale
The Company is concentrating its Eagle Ford Shale development activities in the northern portion of its legacy Austin Chalk acreage block in Robertson, Brazos, Burleson and Lee Counties, Texas. The following table summarizes production and ownership data for the eight horizontal wells completed by the Company in this area.
Peak 30-Day Rate (BOE/day)(a) | % Oil | CWEI Net Revenue Interest | |
Mean | 554 | 95% | 79% |
Median | 537 | 95% | 80% |
Low | 322 | 100% | 80% |
High | 872 | 93% | 80% |
(a) Oil and casinghead gas; gas converted to BOE at 6:1.
The Company believes that more than 100,000 net acres of its extensive Austin Chalk acreage position is prospective for Eagle Ford Shale development and presently plans to resume drilling in this area with one rig in November 2013 and a second rig in the first quarter of 2014.

CLAYTON WILLIAMS ENERGY, INC. COMPUTATION OF EBITDAX (Unaudited) (In thousands) | |||||||||||||||
EBITDAX is presented as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure because of its wide acceptance by financial analysts, investors, debt holders, banks, rating agencies and other financial statement users as an indication of an entity's ability to meet its debt service obligations and to internally fund its exploration and development activities. | |||||||||||||||
The Company defines EBITDAX as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, exploration costs, net (gain) loss on sales of assets and impairment of inventory, and all non-cash items in the Company's statements of operations, including depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment of property and equipment, accretion of asset retirement obligations, amortization of deferred revenue from volumetric production payment, certain employee compensation and changes in fair value of derivatives. EBITDAX is not an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in conformity with GAAP. | |||||||||||||||

(a) | Oil and gas sales includes $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 of amortized deferred revenue attributable to a volumetric production payment (“VPP”) transaction effective March 1, 2012. The calculation of average realized sales prices excludes production of 28,793 barrels of oil and 8,550 Mcf of gas for the three months ended September 30, 2013, 32,788 barrels of oil and 14,826 Mcf of gas for the three months ended September 30, 2012, 88,897 barrels of oil and 23,589 Mcf of gas for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 77,755 barrels of oil and 32,000 Mcf of gas for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 associated with the VPP. |
(b) | Hedging gains/losses are only included in the determination of the Company's average realized prices if the underlying derivative contracts are designated as cash flow hedges under applicable accounting standards. The Company did not designate any of its 2013 or 2012 derivative contracts as cash flow hedges. This means that the Company's derivatives for 2013 and 2012 have been marked-to-market through its statement of operations as other income/expense instead of through accumulated other comprehensive income on the Company's balance sheet. This also means that all realized gains/losses on these derivatives are reported in other income/expense instead of as a component of oil and gas sales. |
(c) | In April 2013, the Company sold 95% of its interest in certain properties in Andrews County, Texas. Following is a recap of the average daily production related to the sold interest for periods prior to April 1, 2013. |

(d) | Prior to 2013, certain purchasers of the Company's casinghead gas accounted for the value of extracted NGL in the price paid for gas production at the wellhead. During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company began separating these products, when possible. Had these incremental NGL volumes been reported separately during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company estimates that its reported natural gas volumes would have decreased by 2,200 Mcf/day and that its reported NGL volumes would have increased by 600 BOE/day during each of the 2012 periods. |
(e) | Non-cash employee compensation relates to the Company’s non-equity award plans. |
