UNIT CORPORATION REPORTS 2015 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Tulsa, Oklahoma . . . Unit Corporation (NYSE - UNT) today reported its financial and operational results for the second quarter of 2015. Highlights for the quarter include:
• | Total production of 5.1 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBoe), a 9% increase over the second quarter of 2014 |
• | Oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs) production increased 8% over the second quarter of 2014 |
• | Placed three BOSS drilling rigs into service during the quarter |
• | Gas gathered and gas processed volumes per day increased 11% and 15%, respectively, over the second quarter of 2014 |
SECOND QUARTER AND FIRST SIX MONTHS 2015 RESULTS
Because of significantly lower commodity prices, Unit’s second quarter of 2015 results include the following pre-tax non-cash write downs: $410.5 million ceiling test write down in the carrying value of the company’s oil and natural gas properties and an $8.3 million pre-tax write down for the decline in the carrying value of certain drilling rigs and other assets removed from service. As a result, Unit recorded a net loss of $274.4 million, or $5.58 per share, compared to net income of $54.4 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014. Adjusted net loss for the quarter (which excludes the effect of non-cash commodity derivatives and the effects of the write-downs) was $5.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures below). Total revenues for the quarter were $214.4 million (50% oil and natural gas, 26% contract drilling, and 24% mid-stream), compared to $405.4 million (49% oil and natural gas, 28% contract drilling, and 23% mid-stream) for the second quarter of 2014.
For the first six months of 2015, Unit recorded an $811.1 million pre-tax non-cash ceiling test write down in the carrying value of the company’s oil and natural gas properties and an $8.3 million pre-tax write down for the drilling rigs and other assets discussed above. As a result, Unit recorded a net loss of $522.7 million, or $10.66 per share, compared to net income of $111.3 million, or $2.27 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2014. Adjusted net loss for the first six months (which excludes the effect of non-cash commodity derivatives and the effects of the write-downs) was $2.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures below). Total revenues for the first six months were $469.5 million (45% oil and natural gas, 32% contract drilling, and 23% mid-stream), compared to $793.4 million (49% oil and natural gas, 28% contract drilling, and 23% mid-stream) for the first six months of 2014.

Currently, two Unit drilling rigs are operating for this segment. One is operating in the Southern Oklahoma Hoxbar Oil Trend (SOHOT) and one is drilling in the Wilcox play, located in southeast Texas. The current plan is to have two Unit drilling rigs operating through the end of the third quarter at which time adjustments may be made depending on factors such as commodity pricing, service costs and/or well results. Unit’s expectations are to be at the top end of the production guidance of 2% to 4%. Well service cost reductions and operating efficiencies are resulting in current AFE’s being approximately 28% lower as compared to 2014.

In the SOHOT area, production increased 5% during the quarter as compared to the first quarter of 2015. During the first half of 2015, three horizontal operated Hoxbar wells were completed in the first quarter and five horizontal Hoxbar wells were completed in the second quarter for a total of eight wells. Six of the eight new wells were completed in the Medrano member of the Hoxbar and two wells in the Marchand member. The 30 day initial production rate for the six Medrano wells averaged 7 MMcfe per day of which approximately 32% consisted of liquids. The two Marchand wells had a 30 day average initial production rate of approximately 1,571 Boe per day with 84% of the production mix being oil. The current plan for 2015 is to utilize one to two Unit rigs drilling in the prospect for the remainder of 2015, which should equate to approximately 12 to 14 new horizontal Hoxbar completions.
In the Wilcox area, production was essentially unchanged during the quarter as compared to the first quarter 2015 after accounting for a reduction of 0.75 Bcfe due to a third party processing plant being shut in for maintenance. Without the reduction, Wilcox production would have increased approximately 11% for the quarter. For the first half 2015, three Wilcox wells were completed in the first quarter and five Wilcox wells were completed in the second quarter for a total of eight wells (five vertical and three horizontal). Because of a lack of sufficient production history and pending lease acquisition opportunities, we have elected not to discuss the performance of the horizontal wells at this time. Two additional horizontal wells are scheduled to be drilled late in the fourth quarter of 2015. Development of the Gilly Downthrown fault block is progressing favorably. Four vertical Wilcox wells have been drilled and logged an average of approximately 200 feet of potential oil and gas pay from multiple Wilcox sands. Completion operations have begun on all four wells and current plans are to drill two to three additional vertical delineation wells this year. The preliminary field size based on the four wells is estimated at approximately 1,000 acres. In the Wilcox project, the current plan is to utilize one to two Unit drilling rigs in 2015, which should result in approximately 11 vertical and five horizontal Wilcox completions.
In the Granite Wash, a horizontal “C1” well was completed with an extended lateral of approximately 6,600 feet. The well, which is the first extended lateral drilled in this sand, had an average IP 30 rate of 10.7 MMcfe per day consisting of 42% natural gas, 35% oil, and 23% NGLs production. This was a 39% increase in the IP 30 rate over the typical “C1” well with a lateral length of 4,600 feet.
Larry Pinkston, Unit’s Chief Executive Officer and President, said: “Due to the unexpected shut in of some of the production in East Texas because of maintenance of a third party processing facility, production for the quarter was negatively impacted by approximately 125,000 Boe. We have reduced our drilling activities during the quarter because of the continued lower commodity prices. Despite the slowdown, we are pleased with the quality of the wells that we are drilling and completing. In the two core areas where we are allocating capital we have a multi-year inventory of potential drilling locations that can meet or exceed our profitability hurdles in this challenging commodity price environment.”
CONTRACT DRILLING SEGMENT INFORMATION
The average number of drilling rigs used in the quarter was 30.7, a decrease of 58% from the second quarter of 2014, and a decrease of 39% from the first quarter of 2015. Per day drilling rig rates for the quarter averaged $19,881, essentially unchanged from the second quarter of 2014 and a 1% decrease from the first quarter of 2015. Average per day operating margin for the quarter was $6,821 (before elimination of intercompany drilling rig profit and bad debt expense of $0.5 million). This compares to $8,317 (before elimination of intercompany drilling rig profit and bad debt expense of $7.8 million) for the second quarter of 2014, a decrease of 18%, or $1,496. As compared to $10,253 (before elimination of intercompany drilling rig profit and bad debt expense of $2.9 million) for the first quarter of 2015, second quarter 2015 operating margin decreased 33% or $3,432 (in each case regarding eliminating intercompany drilling rig profit and bad debt expense - see Non-GAAP Financial Measures below). Average operating margins for the second quarter of 2015 included early termination fees of approximately $1.6 million, or $594 per day, from the cancellation of certain long-term contracts, compared to no early termination fees during the second quarter of 2014 and $12.7 million for the first quarter of 2015.
Larry Pinkston said: “Drilling rig demand continued to decline during the second quarter because of the significant decrease in commodity prices. During the quarter, our sixth, seventh, and eighth BOSS drilling rigs began operating. With adding these three BOSS drilling rigs, our current drilling rig fleet now totals 94 drilling rigs, of which 32 are now working under contract. We have recently been notified of a customer's intent to terminate early the contracts on two BOSS drilling rigs both of which are under term contracts that contain early termination penalties. Long-term contracts (contracts with original terms ranging from six months to two years in length) are in place for 14 of the 32 drilling rigs. Of the 14 long term contracts, three are up for renewal during the third quarter, one in the fourth quarter, seven in 2016 and three in 2017.”
