QUICKSILVER RESOURCES REPORTS THIRD-QUARTER 2014 RESULTS
FORT WORTH, TEXAS (November 10, 2014) - Quicksilver Resources Inc. (NYSE: KWK) today announced preliminary 2014 third-quarter results.
Third-quarter highlights:
• | Global borrowing base reaffirmed at $325 million with unanimous lender approval; received favorable covenant changes |
• | Revealed strong results in first two West Texas wells completed with joint venture partner, Eni |
• | Maintained Barnett Shale production compared to Q3 2013 due to 17 net wells brought online in first nine months of 2014 |
“Quicksilver has made significant progress on our stated goals since our last earnings call. Oil discoveries in West Texas, improved well results and cost structure in the Barnett and affirmation of our borrowing base and the covenant changes with our banks are all positive developments," said Glenn Darden, CEO of Quicksilver Resources. “These achievements have not only strengthened the company's asset base, but should also be very helpful in our marketing process and other negotiations.”
Financial Results
Reported net income for the third-quarter 2014 was $24 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to reported net income of $11 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the 2013 quarter.
Reported net income includes the following significant, non-operational items:
• | $40 million unrealized gain from commodity derivatives in the 2014 quarter compared to a $25 million unrealized gain in the 2013 quarter |
• | $8 million adjustment to the gain on sale related to the TG Transaction in the 2013 quarter |
• | $2 million for strategic transaction costs in the 2014 quarter |
• | $2 million for other non-cash impairments in the 2013 quarter |
Excluding the impact of the items noted above and other miscellaneous non-operational items, adjusted net loss for the third-quarter 2014, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $12 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $8 million or $0.05 per diluted share, in the 2013 quarter.
A reconciliation of reported net income to adjusted net loss is included in the tables accompanying this earnings release.
Production
Third-quarter 2014 production was 22.6 Bcfe, or an average of 246 million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent per day (MMcfed), compared to 25.2 Bcfe, or an average of 274 MMcfed, in the 2013 quarter. The decline is primarily attributable to natural decline in Canadian volumes due to minimal capital activity, a scheduled plant outage at a third-party facility in the Horn River Asset, and lower sales volume in the Barnett Shale due to the rejection of ethane volumes in September 2014. These declines were partially offset by new natural gas volumes from the Barnett Shale related to the company's ongoing
completion and workover programs, despite curtailed volume from wells adjacent to completion operations.
Production from the Barnett Shale was 15.2 Bcfe in the third-quarter 2014, or an average of 165 MMcfed, compared to 15.4 Bcfe, or an average of 167 MMcfed in the 2013 quarter. Wells completed in 2014 contributed 21 MMcfed in the third quarter, though approximately 2 MMcfed of volume was temporarily shut-in due to adjacent completion operations during the third quarter.
In September 2014, in light of weak ethane prices, the company rejected ethane volumes from the liquids-rich Barnett Shale and sold it as natural gas. As a result, the loss of equivalent sales volume was approximately 2 MMcfed, on average, in the third-quarter 2014. Despite the loss of sales volume, wellhead production was not impacted and net cash margins were slightly improved. Going forward, the company will continue to evaluate the economics of producing and selling ethane on a month-to-month basis.
Revenue
Production revenue and realized cash derivative gain/loss for the third quarter of 2014 was $105 million compared to $113 million in the 2013 quarter, which excludes approximately $3 million in each quarter of cash proceeds from certain derivatives that will not be recognized until future periods to match their original settlement dates. The decline in revenue is caused by volume impacts as described above, but is partially offset by higher prices for natural gas, net of derivatives.
The average realized price for the third quarter of 2014 compared to the 2013 quarter improved $0.20 per Mcfe to $4.67 per Mcfe, which excludes approximately $0.13 per Mcfe of cash proceeds in each quarter from derivatives described above. The improved average realized price is mainly attributable to higher natural gas prices in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the 2013 quarter.
Expenses
Consolidated lease operating expense ("LOE") for the third quarter of 2014 was $17 million, or $0.76 per Mcfe, compared to approximately $19 million, or $0.74 per Mcfe in the 2013 quarter. The absolute reduction is the result of the sale of the Montana and Colorado assets, lower rates for gas lift in the Barnett Shale resulting from a recent amendment with third-party midstream providers, and a non-recurring $2 million impairment in the 2013 quarter. These declines were partially offset by higher gas lift volume in the Barnett Shale compared to the 2013 quarter due to completion activity. On a unit basis, the $0.02 per Mcfe increase compared to the 2013 quarter is primarily due to fixed charges applied to lower overall volumes. Additionally, unit costs are also impacted by the loss in sales volume resulting from ethane rejection during the 2014 quarter.
Consolidated gathering, processing and transportation ("GPT") expense for the third quarter of 2014 was $35 million, or $1.54 per Mcfe compared to approximately $36 million, or $1.41 per Mcfe in the 2013 quarter. The $1 million reduction is the result of lower sales volume partially offset by higher volumes originating from the dry gas areas in the Barnett Shale, which carry higher gathering fees compared to the company's liquids-rich acreage. The per Mcfe increase compared to the 2013 quarter is primarily the impact of higher unused treating and transportation in the Horn River as a result of declining volume amid minimal capital activity, the production mix in the Barnett Shale as noted above, and fixed NGL
reservation fees in the Barnett Shale resulting from the loss of sales volume associated with ethane rejection.
Production and ad valorem taxes for the third quarter of 2014 was $4 million, or $0.18 per Mcfe, compared to approximately $5 million, or $0.19 per Mcfe, in the 2013 quarter. The majority of the decline is related to reduced appraisal values across the company's assets.
Excluding the impact of non-recurring items and equity compensation, general & administrative ("G&A") expense for the third quarter of 2014 was $6 million compared to $7 million in the 2013 quarter. The decline is attributable to the company's aggressive cost containment efforts over the last 24 months. A reconciliation of non-recurring items is included in the tables accompanying this earnings release.
Capital Spending
The company incurred approximately $29 million of costs related to the capital program in the third quarter of 2014, of which $19 million was for drilling and completion activities, $4 million for leasehold and $6 million for capitalized costs.
Fourth-quarter 2014 capital spending is expected to be in the range of $22 million to $27 million, bringing full-year capital spending to $130 million to $135 million.
Strategic Transactions Update
In September 2014, Quicksilver appointed John Little as Strategic Alternatives Officer pursuant to an engagement agreement between Quicksilver and Deloitte Transactions and Business Analytics LLP. Mr.
Little reports to the Board and, in collaboration with Quicksilver’s management team, assists Quicksilver in exploring, evaluating and implementing strategic and tactical initiatives including the company's Combined Credit Agreements’ semi-annual redetermination, other matters involving the company's capital structure including the maturity of the Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016, the marketing of Quicksilver's assets and maximizing of liquidity in the present environment.
The company also retained Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc. to lead a broad and more formalized process to market Quicksilver's assets. This process covers any or all of the company's operating assets and is flexible with regard to structure of any transaction proposal. The marketing process calls for receipt of bids in the fourth-quarter 2014, with a targeted closing date on any transaction in the ordinary course following successful execution of sales agreements, which aligns with the company's other strategic activities.
The company continues to explore several avenues to address its capital structure, including the stated and springing maturities. The company is in frequent discussions with certain of the security holders regarding possible paths to be undertaken.
Borrowing Base Redetermination and Credit Agreement Amendment
In November 2014, the company's global borrowing base under its Combined Credit Agreements was reaffirmed at $325 million and the Combined Credit Agreements were amended to eliminate the requirement to meet the minimum interest coverage ratio requirement beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014 through and including the fourth quarter of 2015. A minimum EBITDAX (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Exploration expense) covenant was added beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014 through and including the fourth quarter of 2015. Also, certain definitions that impact the calculation of EBITDAX were amended.
The required minimum EBITDAX levels are as follows:
Minimum EBITDAX covenant | |||
(in millions) | |||
Three months ending December 31, 2014 | $ | 30.0 | |
Six months ending March 31, 2015 | 59.0 | ||
Nine months ending June 30, 2015 | 87.3 | ||
Twelve months ending September 30, 2015 | 120.5 | ||
Twelve months ending December 31, 2015 | 122.0 | ||
Liquidity
Total liquidity at October 31, 2014 was approximately $230 million, of which most was in the form of cash and cash equivalents.
Fourth-quarter 2014 Guidance
Fourth-quarter 2014 total company average daily production volume is expected to be 238 - 242 MMcfe per day. At current ethane prices, the company expects to continue to reject ethane volumes during the fourth-quarter 2014, which is included in the production guidance as a negative impact of 6 MMcfe per day.
For the fourth quarter of 2014, expected costs are as follows:
Lease operating expense | $0.76 - $0.80 |
Gathering, processing & transportation | $1.50 - $1.54 |
Production and ad-valorem taxes | $0.17 - $0.19 |
Depletion, depreciation & accretion | $0.63 - $0.66 |
General & Administrative | $11MM - $12MM |
Hedging
The company's derivative portfolio is as follows:
Commodity Swaps | Natural Gas (MMbtud) | Weighted Average Price | |||
Q4 2014 | 170 | $5.08 | |||
2015 | 150 | $5.23 | |||
2016 - 2021 | 40 | $4.48 | |||
Basis Swaps - AECO | |||||
Q4 2014 | 40 | $(0.46) | |||
The company estimates that approximately 80% of its expected fourth-quarter 2014 natural gas production is covered by fixed price swaps.
Approximately 50% of expected sales at the AECO hub for the fourth quarter of 2014 are covered by fixed-price swaps at a weighted-average discount of $0.46 per Mcf to NYMEX.
The value of the derivative portfolio at October 31, 2014 is estimated to be $110 million.
Operational Update
United States - Barnett Shale
The company invested approximately $14 million in the third quarter to drill 4 gross (3 net) wells and complete 5 gross (3 net) wells, and invested approximately $2 million for leasing activity. As a result of the leasing effort, the company added approximately 8,000 net acres to its position in the southern Barnett Shale which creates unified acreage blocks and is expected to drive improved drilling economics.
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 143,300 gross (93,000 net) acres in the Fort Worth Basin, which is prospective for the Barnett Shale.
United States - West Texas
In mid-August 2014, the Stallings #1H, the first joint venture well drilled and completed with Eni, began flow back up casing at a rate of 750 Boed. Tubing was later installed and the average 83-day flow rate is approximately 535 Boed (90% oil) from a 3,700-foot lateral in the Third Bone Springs interval.
In late October, the Mitchell #1H, the second joint venture well, was drilled 4 miles north of the Stallings #1H and completed in the Third Bone Springs interval in a 5,200-foot lateral. The well is in early stages of flowback and is currently producing approximately 700 Boed (75% oil) on a restricted choke after recovering approximately 15% of the fracture fluid. Oil volumes have improved daily and continue to increase.
Quicksilver is the operator of the joint venture and owns a 50% working interest. As part of the exploration agreement with Eni, Quicksilver will be fully carried for up to $52 million of land, drilling and completion costs on its 52,500 acre tract in Pecos County. The joint venture expects to commence drilling two additional wells in the fourth quarter.
In late August 2014, a farm-out well was completed by a third-party on the joint venture's additional 7,500 acre tract. The well was drilled in a location approximately 20 miles west of the Stallings #1H. The joint venture owns a 25% interest in the well, which had an initial production rate of approximately 250 Boed from a 5,500 foot lateral completed in the Wolfcamp formation.
In the third-quarter 2014, Quicksilver finalized a joint exploration agreement involving its assets in the Midland Basin in Crockett and Upton counties. As part of the agreement, Quicksilver will be fully carried for the drilling and completion of up to five wells to be operated by a third party. Quicksilver will retain a 12.5% interest in the project.
Together with its partners, the company is focused on approximately 90,000 gross acres in Pecos, Crockett and Upton counties in West Texas.
Canada - Horseshoe Canyon
The company invested approximately $5 million in the third quarter to drill 16 gross (10 net) wells and complete 5 gross (5 net) wells.
Production from the Horseshoe Canyon was 4.2 Bcf in the third-quarter 2014, or an average of 45.8 MMcfd, compared to 4.6 Bcf, or an average of 49.5 MMcfd in the 2013 quarter. The decline is the result of a delay in the commencement of the drilling and completion program due to an extended break-up period.
For full-year 2014, the company expects to invest $12 million to drill and complete up to 50 gross (30 net) wells.
Quicksilver leases approximately 528,000 gross (353,000 net) acres in its Horseshoe Canyon Asset in Alberta.
Canada - Horn River
Production from the Horn River Basin was 3.2 Bcf in the third-quarter 2014, or an average of 34.8 MMcfd, compared to 5.1 Bcf, or an average of 55.7 MMcfd in the 2013 quarter. The decline is primarily attributable to natural decline as capital spending has been deferred until the successful completion of a strategic transaction. In addition, a maintenance outage at a third party facility in the Horn River impacted production by approximately 35 MMcfd for a period of five days during the third-quarter 2014.
The company was notified that a second maintenance outage at a third-party facility serving the Horn River Asset is required during the fourth quarter, and thus, production is expected to be curtailed by approximately 10 MMcfd for a period of 10 days. During this time, the company expects to sell a portion of its Horn River volumes at the Station 2 sales hub through a separate third-party treating facility.
Quicksilver leases approximately 140,000 gross (130,000 net) acres in the Horn River Basin in British Columbia, which is believed to hold 14 Tcf of natural gas resource potential.
