“Over the last year, Quicksilver has reduced debt, enhanced liquidity, and advanced projects,” said Glenn Darden, Quicksilver's Chief Executive Officer. “We have more work to do, but with the improvements made, and what we believe will be more to come, 2014 is shaping up to be a significant year for this company.”
Financial Results
Fourth-quarter 2013
Reported net loss for the fourth quarter 2013 was $32 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to a reported net loss of $548 million, or $3.22 per diluted share, in the 2012 quarter.
Adjusted net loss for the fourth quarter 2013, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $9 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the 2012 quarter. Fourth-quarter 2013 adjusted net loss excludes a $13 million mark-to-market gain on commodity derivatives and $4 million charge related to strategic transaction costs, among other miscellaneous items. Details of adjusted net income are included in the tables accompanying this earnings release.
Full-year 2013
Reported net income for full-year 2013 was $162 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, compared to a reported net loss of $2.4 billion, or $13.83 per diluted share, for full-year 2012. The reported net loss in 2012 was mainly impacted by non-cash impairments of $2.6 billion.
Full-year 2013 adjusted net loss, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $32 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net loss of $8 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, for full-year 2012.
Production
Fourth-quarter 2013 production was 24.5 Bcfe, or an average of 266 million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent per day (MMcfed) compared to 31.5 Bcfe, or an average of 342 MMcfed in the 2012 quarter. Full-year 2013 production was 108 Bcfe, or an average of 296 MMcfed.
Pro forma for asset sales, 2013 production was approximately 101 Bcfe, or an average of 276 MMcfed, compared to pro forma production of approximately 105 Bcfe, or an average of 288 Bcfe in 2012. The decline in pro forma production is mainly attributable to the impact of curtailed capital spending across the company's asset base.
Inclement weather in North Texas and Canada negatively impacted fourth quarter 2013 production by approximately 2.4 MMcfed.
Revenue
Production revenue and realized cash derivative gain/loss for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $112 million compared to $166 million in the 2012 quarter, which excludes approximately $3 million and $6 million, respectively, of cash proceeds from certain derivatives that will not be recognized until future periods to match their original settlement dates.
The average realized price for the fourth quarter of 2013 and full-year 2013 was $4.59 and $4.49, respectively, which excludes approximately $0.12 and $0.20 per Mcfe, respectively, of cash proceeds from derivatives described above.
Production revenue and realized cash derivative gain/loss in the fourth quarter of 2013 and full-year 2013 was 33% and 28% lower than the 2012 quarter and full-year 2012, respectively, due mainly to lower production volumes as described above and the expiration at the end of 2012 of approximately 100 MMcfe per day of commodity swaps at an average floor price of $6.91/Mcfe.
Expenses
Consolidated lease operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $19 million, or $0.76 per Mcfe, compared to $23 million, or $0.73 per Mcfe in the 2012 quarter. The absolute decline is mainly attributable to asset sales, cost containment efforts and lower production volumes. The increase in the rate per Mcfe is the effect of the fixed portion of lease operating expenses amid declining volume.
Consolidated gathering, processing and transportation ("GPT") expense for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $37 million, or $1.49 per Mcfe compared to $39 million, or $1.25 per Mcfe in the 2012 quarter. The
absolute decline is attributable to asset sales and lower production volumes, offset by higher unused committed capacity charges in the Horn River Basin.
Production and ad valorem taxes for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $2 million compared to $5 million in the 2012 quarter. The decline is attributable to asset sales and reductions to expected tax expenses recognized in the fourth quarter of 2013 which were related to reduced appraisal values for properties within the Barnett Asset.
General & Administrative expense for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $12 million, or $0.48 per Mcfe compared to $21 million, or $0.66 per Mcfe in the 2012 quarter. Excluding the impact of strategic transaction costs in each period, G&A would have been $8 million, or $0.31 per Mcfe, in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to $13 million, or $0.42 per Mcfe, in the 2012 quarter. The reduction is related to the company's continued aggressive focus on cost containment and lower executive incentive compensation in 2013.
Cash Flow, Debt and Liquidity
Operating cash flow for the fourth quarter was $29 million. Investing cash flow was a net outflow of $18 million before purchases and maturities of marketable securities.
As of December 31, 2013, the company had approximately $252 million utilized under its Combined Credit Agreements, which includes $41 million of outstanding letters of credit. Long-term debt was
$2 billion consisting of the Combined Credit Agreements and long-term notes, all with an average weighted maturity of approximately 5 years.
Total liquidity at December 31, 2013 is approximately $353 million in the form of $255 million of cash and marketable securities, and $98 million of availability under the Combined Credit Agreements.
2013 Capital Spending
The company incurred approximately $26 million of capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2013, of which $18 million was for drilling and completion activities, $3 million for leasehold and midstream, and $5 million for capitalized costs ($4 million for capitalized G&A and $1 million for capitalized interest).
Capital incurred for the full-year 2013 was $99 million, which is $21 million below the capital budget due to lower than anticipated spending in the West Texas Asset and lower capitalized overhead.
2014 Capital Budget and Outlook
The company intends to invest a total of $136 million in 2014, which includes $98 million for drilling and completion activities, primarily in the Fort Worth Basin and the Horseshoe Canyon, $15 million for leasehold and seismic, and approximately $23 million for overhead and interest expense that is expected to be capitalized in the ordinary course of business.
The capital budget does not factor in proceeds from potential strategic partnerships and assumes the completion of the Niobrara Asset sale. It also does not include any acquisition spending which may occur during the year.
Full-year production volume is expected to be 245 - 255 MMcfe per day. First-quarter 2014 average daily production volume is expected to be 240 - 245 MMcfe per day. Average daily production volumes are expected to consist of 85% natural gas and 15% natural gas liquids and crude oil.
For the first quarter of 2014, expected costs, on an absolute and Mcfe basis, are as follows:
Dollar Amount | Per Mcfe | ||
• | Lease operating expense | $18.5 - $19.2MM | $0.84 - $0.88 |
• | Gathering, processing & transportation | $31.3 - $31.8MM | $1.43 - $1.45 |
• | Production and ad-valorem taxes | $3.5 - $4.0MM | $0.16 - $0.18 |
• | General & administrative | $12.0 - $13.0MM | $0.55 - $0.59 |
• | Depletion, depreciation & accretion | $13.0 - $13.7MM | $0.59 - $0.63 |
Hedging
The company's derivative portfolio is as follows: Natural gas swaps of 170 MMcfd for 2014 at a weighted average price of $5.08 per Mcf, 150 MMcfd for 2015 at $5.23 per Mcf, and 40 MMcfd for 2016-2021 at $4.48 per Mcf, and NGL swaps of 4,000 BBld at a weighted average price of $30.52 for January 2014 - September 2014.
The company estimates that approximately 75% of its expected 2014 equivalent production is covered by fixed price swaps. Expected sales at the AECO hub in 2014 are covered approximately 70% at a weighted average discount of $0.46 per Mcf to NYMEX.
Reserves
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires proved reserve volumes to be calculated using an average of the spot prices for sales of gas and crude oil, respectively, on the first calendar day of each month during the reporting year. On this basis, the prices for gas and crude oil for 2013 reserves reporting purposes were $3.67 per million British thermal units (MMbtu) at NYMEX and $97.18 per barrel at WTI.
Quicksilver's preliminary year-end 2013 SEC proved reserves based on SEC pricing total approximately 1,330 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalents (Bcfe), as outlined below.
In Bcfe | United States | Canada | Consolidated | ||
Proved Reserves @ 12/31/12 | 1,200 | 267 | 1,467 | ||
Barnett 25% sale | (337) | — | (337) | ||
Montana sale | (15) | — | (15) | ||
Other | (5) | — | (5) | ||
Pro forma Proved Reserves @ 12/31/12 | 843 | 267 | 1,110 | ||
Production | (70) | (39) | (109) | ||
Revisions | 240 | 28 | 268 | ||
Extensions | 51 | 10 | 61 | ||
Proved Reserves @ 12/31/13 | 1,064 | 266 | 1,330 | ||
Proved Developed | 910 | 260 | 1,170 | ||
Proved Undeveloped | 154 | 6 | 160 | ||
Year-end 2013 proved reserves are 20% higher compared to pro forma 2012 reserves as a result of 221 Bcfe of price revisions, 47 Bcfe of technical revisions, and 61 Bcfe of additions resulting from the Barnett and Horseshoe Canyon capital programs. Reserves by product are 82% natural gas and 18% NGLs and oil.
Operational Update
United States - Barnett Shale
Production from the Barnett Shale in the fourth quarter of 2013 was an average of 166.7 MMcfe per day. The company invested approximately $6 million in the fourth quarter to drill 11 gross (4 net) wells in the Barnett including 6 gross (3 net) wells in its Alliance leasehold. These wells are expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2014.
For full-year 2014, the company expects to drill up to 30 gross (16 net) wells and complete up to 47 gross (26 net) wells.
Along with partners Tokyo Gas and Eni, Quicksilver leases approximately 135,000 gross acres in the Fort Worth Basin which is prospective of the Barnett Shale.
United States - West Texas
Quicksilver, with its partners, are focused on evaluating and developing approximately 52,500 gross acres in Pecos County, Texas which is believed to be prospective of the Wolfcamp and Bone Springs formations. The joint venture with Eni calls for Eni to spend up to $52 million to fund 100% of the drilling and completion of up to three wells, the first of which is expected to be spud by June 2014.
United States - Niobrara Asset
The company announced the sale of its interest in the Niobrara Asset along with SWEPI LP's interest to Southwestern Energy Co. for gross proceeds of $180 million, expected to be split equally between Quicksilver and SWEPI. The transaction is expected to close May 1, 2014.
Fourth-quarter 2013 average net production from the Niobrara Asset was approximately 32 Bbld. Proved reserves at year-end 2013 was approximately 70 MBbl.
Canada - Horn River Basin
Production from the Horn River Basin in the fourth quarter of 2013 was an average of 50 MMcfe per day.
In March 2014, the company executed an agreement with KKR, its partner in Fortune Creek, to reduce the rate assessed on Horn River gathered volumes and to amend the ending date of the remaining $120 million capital spending requirement. As part the amendment, Quicksilver pays C$28 million to Fortune Creek to apply against the gathering agreement requirement, thus lowering the Fortune Creek gathering rate by $0.13 per Mcf until at least 2016. The amendment also provides that the remaining capital spending requirement be deferred to the later of June 30, 2016 or 12 months following consummation of a transaction involving a material portion of the Horn River Asset. The agreement also broadens the eligibility of allowable spending to meet the capital spending requirement to include acquisitions of properties that utilize partnership assets. Additionally, as a result of the amendment, KKR no longer is required to fund the capital required for construction of a proposed gas treatment facility, but at their option can provide funding for any facility to be constructed by the Partnership, including the proposed gas treatment facility. The amendment provides the company with immediate cash flow relief by the reduction to the gathering fee paid to Fortune Creek, and provides additional time and flexibility to complete a transaction involving the company's Horn River Asset.
The company has acquired a site for potential LNG exports off the British Columbia coast and is working toward completing a transaction with one or more potential partners for its integrated Horn River project. The company anticipates minimal capital spending in the Horn River until it completes this process.
Quicksilver leases approximately 130,000 net acres in the Horn River Basin in British Columbia which is believed to hold 14Tcf of natural gas resource potential.
Canada - Horseshoe Canyon
Production from the Horseshoe Canyon in the fourth quarter of 2013 was an average of 49 MMcfe per day.
The company expects to invest approximately $20 million in 2014 to drill and complete up to 100 gross (50 net) wells.
Quicksilver leases approximately 353,000 net acres in its Horseshoe Canyon Asset in Alberta.
