NEWS RELEASE
For Immediate Release
COMSTOCK RESOURCES, INC. REPORTS
THIRD QUARTER 2016 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
FRISCO, TEXAS, November 8, 2016 – Comstock Resources, Inc. ("Comstock" or the "Company") (NYSE: CRK) today reported financial and operating results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
On September 6, 2016, Comstock completed a debt exchange with the holders of 98% of the Company's outstanding senior notes. $697.2 million of its senior secured notes were exchanged for the Company's new 10% Senior Secured Toggle Notes due 2020 and warrants exercisable for approximately 1.9 million shares of Comstock's common stock, and $440.3 million of the Company's unsecured senior notes were exchanged for new convertible second lien PIK notes. The transaction freed up the Company's operating cash flow which the Company now intends to invest in its high return Haynesville shale drilling program. Prior to completion of the debt exchange, the Company had retired $236.9 million in principal amount of its long-term debt for shares of the Company's common stock and cash for total consideration of $59.7 million.
Drilling Results
During the first nine months of 2016, Comstock spent $36.7 million on its development and exploration activities. After commencing drilling in March 2016, Comstock drilled three (2.8 net) successful Haynesville shale horizontal gas wells before releasing its operated drilling rig in July 2016. On September 28, 2016, the Company restarted its Haynesville shale drilling program after the completion of the debt exchange. Comstock recently drilled its fourth operated Haynesville shale horizontal well, the James Pace 5-8 #1 well in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. This well was drilled to a total measured depth of 19,452 feet with an estimated 7,500 foot horizontal lateral. The well will be the first well to be completed with a larger stimulation package, which includes 3,800 pounds of proppant per lateral foot as compared to 2,800 pounds on the earlier wells. Completion operations are expected to commence on the well within the next week. Currently, Comstock has two operated rigs drilling two Haynesville shale horizontal wells (2.0 net) and it is participating in two non-operated Haynesville shale wells (0.2 net).
Under its revised drilling program, Comstock expects to drill five additional wells (3.7 net) in the fourth quarter of 2016 and 22 horizontal wells (17.1 net) in 2017. Capital expenditures for this drilling program are currently estimated to be $20.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 and $142.9 million in 2017.
Comstock has also initiated its 2017 hedging program and currently has 12.6 billion cubic feet ("Bcf") of its 2017 natural gas production hedged at approximately $3.27 per thousand cubic feet ("Mcf").
Financial Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2016
Comstock produced 14.1 Bcf of natural gas and 320,388 barrels of oil or 16.0 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent ("Bcfe") in the third quarter of 2016. Natural gas production averaged 153.0 million cubic feet ("MMcf") per day, an increase of 4% over natural gas production in the third quarter of 2015. Oil production in the third quarter of 2016, which averaged 3,482 barrels of oil per day, declined by 50% from the 6,903 barrels per day produced in the third quarter of 2015. The decrease in oil production is primarily due to the sale of the Company's Burleson County, Texas properties in 2015 and the lack of drilling in the South Texas Eagle Ford shale properties in 2015 and 2016.
Natural gas prices improved during the third quarter of 2016 from prices in the second quarter of 2016 and the third quarter of 2015 but oil prices have declined further. Comstock's realized natural gas price, including realized hedging gains, in the third quarter of 2016 improved to $2.62 per Mcf from $1.99 per Mcf in the second quarter of 2016 and increased 4% as compared to the $2.53 per Mcf realized in the third quarter of 2015. Comstock's average oil price declined to $42.07 per barrel in the third quarter of 2016 from the second quarter price of $42.21 per barrel and declined by 4% as compared to $43.63 per barrel in the third quarter of 2015. Oil and gas sales, including realized hedging gains, declined by 18% to $50.3 million as compared to 2015's third quarter sales of $61.8 million. EBITDAX, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, exploration expense and other noncash expenses, was $29.7 million in the third quarter of 2016 as compared to EBITDAX of $36.0 million in the third quarter of 2015.
Comstock reported a net loss of $28.5 million or $2.32 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2016 as compared to a net loss of $545.0 million or $59.05 per share for the third quarter of 2015. The third quarter of 2016 results include impairments on oil and gas properties and undeveloped leases of $76.5 million which primarily relate to the Company's Tuscaloosa Marine shale acreage, a net loss on the pending sale of oil and gas properties of $13.2 million, a net gain on debt extinguishment of $100.5 million related to the debt exchange and an income tax benefit to reflect a change in state law of $0.8 million. Financial results for the third quarter of 2015 included a charge to impair certain producing oil and gas properties and unevaluated leases of $549.8 million, recognition of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets primarily resulting from the large impairment provision of $189.4 million, an unrealized gain from derivative financial instruments of $0.7 million and a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $51.1 million. Excluding these items from each period's results, the net loss for the third quarter of 2016 would have been $40.1 million or $3.27 per share as compared to net loss of $48.9 million or $5.30 per share in the third quarter of 2015.
Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016
Comstock produced 41.4 Bcf of natural gas and 1.1 million barrels of oil, or 48.0 Bcfe, in the first nine months of 2016 compared to 32.7 Bcf of natural gas and 2.6 million barrels of oil or 48.3 Bcfe in the first nine months of 2015. Natural gas production was up 26% over the first nine months of 2015 while oil production declined by 58%. Comstock's average realized natural gas price, including realized hedging gains, decreased 12% to $2.17 per Mcf in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $2.47 per Mcf realized in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Company's average realized oil price decreased by 25% to $36.15 per barrel in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $48.08 per barrel in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Oil and gas sales (including realized gains or losses from hedging) in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 of $129.3 million decreased by 37% as compared to $205.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. EBITDAX decreased 48% to $63.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from EBITDAX of $123.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Comstock reported a net loss of $80.2 million, or $7.13 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to a net loss of $758.6 million, or $82.27 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The 2016 results include impairments on oil and gas properties and unevaluated leases of $108.8 million, a loss on sale and exchanges of oil and gas properties of $14.1 million, an income tax charge to reflect a change in state law of $3.7 million, an unrealized loss from derivative financial instruments of $1.4 million and a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $190.1 million. Financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 included a loss on sale of oil and gas properties of $111.8 million, impairments on oil and gas properties and unevaluated leases of $615.7 million, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets of $189.4 million, drilling rig termination fees of $1.7 million, an unrealized gain from derivative financial instruments of $1.3 million and a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $55.6 million. Excluding these items from each period's results, the net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 would have been $142.3 million, or $12.65 per share, as compared to a net loss of $145.7 million, or $15.80 per share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
