Williams (NYSE: WMB) | 3Q 2010 Financial Results — Oct. 28, 2010 | Page 1 of 11 |
TULSA, Okla. — Williams (NYSE: WMB) announced an unaudited net loss attributable to Williams, for third-quarter 2010 of $1,263 million, or a loss of $2.16 per share on a diluted basis, compared with net income of $143 million, or $0.24 per share on a diluted basis for third-quarter 2009.
The net loss for third-quarter 2010 was primarily the result of significant non-cash impairment charges at the company’s Exploration & Production segment. These included pretax charges of approximately $1 billion for an impairment of goodwill and $678 million related to certain proved and unproved natural gas properties, primarily in the Barnett Shale. There is a more detailed discussion of these charges at the end of this news release.
Year-to-date through Sept. 30, Williams reported a net loss of $1,271 million, or a loss of $2.17 per share, compared with net income of $113 million, or $0.19 per share for the same period in 2009.
The year-to-date net loss was due to the previously noted non-cash impairment charges in the third quarter, as well as first-quarter charges in conjunction with the strategic restructuring that transformed Williams Partners L.P. (NYSE: WPZ) into a leading diversified master limited partnership.
All prior-period comparisons in this news release are based on recast 2009 results. The recast results reflect the company’s structure following the strategic restructuring with Williams Partners L.P.
Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations
Adjusted income from continuing operations, including removing the effect of mark-to-market accounting, was $131 million, or $0.22 per share, for third-quarter 2010, compared with $147 million, or $0.25 per share for third-quarter 2009.
The decline in the adjusted results in the third quarter was primarily due to lower results in Exploration & Production.
For the first nine months of 2010, adjusted income from continuing operations, including removing the effect of mark-to-market accounting, was $501 million, or $0.86 per share; compared with $392 million, or $0.67 per share, for the first nine months of 2009.
Williams (NYSE: WMB) | 3Q 2010 Financial Results — Oct. 28, 2010 | Page 2 of 11 |
The improvement in the year-to-date results was driven by increases in the Williams Partners and Other segments. These results are detailed later in this press release.
Adjusted income from continuing operations reflects the removal of items considered unrepresentative of ongoing operations and is a non-GAAP measure. Reconciliations to the most relevant GAAP measure are attached to this news release.
Williams Agrees to Sell Piceance Gathering & Processing Assets to Williams Partners
In a separate announcement today, Williams Partners announced it has agreed to acquire Williams’ gathering and processing assets in Colorado’s Piceance Basin for $782 million. Williams Partners’ total consideration for the assets will include $702 million in cash and $80 million in WPZ limited-partner and general-partner units.
The assets include the Parachute Plant Complex, three other treating facilities with a combined processing capacity of 1.2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d), and a gathering system with approximately 150 miles of pipeline. There are more than 3,300 wells connected to the gathering system, which includes pipelines ranging up to 30-inch trunk lines. The transaction also includes a life-of-lease dedication from Exploration & Production.
CEO Comment
“Year-to-date, our businesses have delivered steady and improved adjusted earnings results,” said Steve Malcolm, chairman, president and chief executive officer.
“We continue to project steady earnings growth and seize opportunities to expand our businesses,” Malcolm said. “For example, the drop-down transaction that we announced today provides attractive fee-based growth for Williams Partners while providing Williams with additional cash.”

Williams Partners
Williams Partners is focused on natural gas transportation, gathering, treating, processing and storage; natural gas liquid (NGL) fractionation; and oil transportation.
For third-quarter 2010, Williams Partners reported segment profit of $343 million, compared with $347 million for third-quarter 2009.
The slight decline in Williams Partners’ segment profit for the third quarter is primarily due to lower NGL equity sales volumes and slightly lower fee-based revenues in the partnership’s midstream business. The decline in NGL equity sales volumes for the third quarter was due to a number of temporary items, including lower gas deliveries in the Gulf region due to disruptions in third-party production unrelated to the drilling moratorium.
Higher per-unit NGL margins in the midstream business, as well as improved results in the gas pipeline business partially offset the negative effect of the lower NGL equity sales volumes in the third quarter.
Williams (NYSE: WMB) | 3Q 2010 Financial Results — Oct. 28, 2010 | Page 5 of 11 |
Year-to-date through Sept. 30, Williams Partners reported segment profit of $1,103 million, compared with $884 million for the same period in 2009.
The 25 percent increase in year-to-date segment profit is due to significantly higher per-unit NGL margins in 2010 compared with 2009.
There is a more detailed description of Williams Partners’ interstate gas pipeline and midstream business results in the partnership’s third-quarter 2010 financial results news release, which is also being issued today.
Exploration & Production
Exploration & Production includes natural gas production and development in the U.S. Rocky Mountains, San Juan Basin, Barnett Shale, Marcellus Shale, and oil and gas development in South America.
The business reported segment loss of $1,603 million for third-quarter 2010, compared with segment profit of $100 million in third-quarter 2009.
The segment loss for third-quarter 2010 resulted from the previously noted non-cash impairment charges for impairments of goodwill and certain proved and unproved properties, primarily in the Barnett Shale.
Exploration & Production’s adjusted segment profit for third-quarter 2010 was $65 million, compared with $96 million in third-quarter 2009 on the same adjusted basis.
The decline in segment profit on an adjusted basis is due primarily to higher exploration expenses associated with the company’s activities in the Paradox basin and higher operating taxes. These items were partially offset by higher net realized average prices for natural gas.
During third-quarter 2010, Williams’ net realized average price for U.S. production, inclusive of hedging gains, was $4.35 per thousand cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (Mcfe), which was 4 percent higher than the $4.18 per Mcfe realized in third-quarter 2009.
The chart below details Williams’ average daily natural gas production for third-quarter 2010.

Williams expects fourth-quarter 2010 natural gas production volumes to be higher than the prior year comparable period. The company’s total third-quarter 2010 production was 2 percent higher than the second-quarter 2010 total. Overall average annual daily production for 2010 is expected to be consistent with 2009 volumes. Additionally, Williams expects average annual daily production to increase by 3 and 7 percent at guidance midpoints in 2011 and 2012, respectively.
For the first nine months of 2010, Exploration & Production reported segment loss of $1,354 million, compared with a segment profit of $290 million for the first nine months of 2009. The previously noted non-cash impairment charges related to goodwill and the carrying value of certain proved and unproved properties drove the segment loss for the year-to-date period.
Exploration & Production’s adjusted segment profit for year-to-date 2010 was $316 million, compared with $326 million for year-to-date 2009 on the same adjusted basis.
The year-to-date decline in adjusted segment profit was primarily due to lower natural gas production volumes in the 2010 period. Higher operating taxes and higher gathering, processing, and transportation expenses also contributed to the lower adjusted results.
These negative effects were nearly offset by an 11 percent increase in net realized average domestic prices on production in year-to-date 2010.
Other
The Other segment reported third-quarter 2010 segment profit of $80 million, compared with segment profit of $31 million for third-quarter 2009.
Higher NGL and olefins production margins and a $30 million third-quarter gain on the previously announced sale of the company’s Accroven interest drove the significant increase in segment profit for the third quarter.
Williams (NYSE: WMB) | 3Q 2010 Financial Results — Oct. 28, 2010 | Page 7 of 11 |
Williams previously announced that it sold its 50-percent interest in Accroven to PDVSA Gas (PDVSA) for $107 million, including $13 million in cash received at closing in June. Williams is recognizing the gains on the sale as cash is received. Williams expects to recognize any further gain on the sale as it receives future cash payments from PDVSA.
For the first nine months of the year, Other’s segment profit was $186 million, compared with a segment loss of $13 million for the first nine months of 2009.
The significant improvement in the Other results for the first nine months of the year is due primarily to the favorable impact of higher NGL and olefin production margins from much higher average per-unit margins and the net impact of recognizing $43 million in gains on the Accroven investment in 2010 while recording a $75 million impairment charge on that investment in 2009.
Impairment of Goodwill and Natural Gas Properties
During the third quarter of 2010, forward natural gas prices through 2025 experienced significant declines.
Because of these price declines, management conducted an impairment evaluation of $1 billion of goodwill at Exploration & Production related to its domestic natural gas production operations, which arose from the 2001 acquisition of Barrett Resources. As a result of the evaluation, the company recognized a full $1 billion impairment charge related to this goodwill.
Also as a result of significant declines in forward natural gas prices during the third quarter of 2010, Williams assessed Exploration & Production’s natural gas-producing properties and acquired unproved reserve costs for impairment. The assessment performed at Sept. 30, 2010, identified certain properties with a carrying value in excess of their calculated fair values — primarily natural-gas producing properties in the Barnett Shale and unproved reserves in the Piceance Highlands that were acquired in 2008. As a result, the company recognized a $503 million pretax impairment charge on the Barnett Shale properties and a $175 million pretax charge on the Piceance Highlands properties.
There is a much more thorough discussion of these impairment charges in Williams’ third-quarter Form 10-Q, which it plans to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release includes certain financial measures, adjusted earnings and adjusted segment profit that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Adjusted earnings and adjusted segment profit exclude items of income or loss that the company characterizes as unrepresentative of its ongoing operations. Both measures provide investors meaningful insight into the company’s results from ongoing operations. This press release is accompanied by a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP financial measures. Management uses these financial measures because they are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare a company’s performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of the company. Neither adjusted earnings nor adjusted segment profit are intended to represent an alternative to net income or segment profit. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Certain financial information in this press release is also shown including mark-to-market adjustments for certain hedges and other derivatives in Exploration & Production, such as adjusted income from continuing operations including mark-to-market adjustments and the related per share measures. This press release is accompanied by a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP financial measures. Management uses the mark-to-market adjustments to better reflect results on a basis that is more consistent with derivative portfolio cash flows and to aid investor understanding. The adjustments reverse forward unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses from derivatives and add realized gains or losses from
Williams (NYSE: WMB) | 3Q 2010 Financial Results — Oct. 28, 2010 | Page 9 of 11 |
derivatives for which mark-to-market income has been previously recognized, with the effect that the resulting adjusted segment profit is presented as if mark-to-market accounting had never been applied to these derivatives. The measure is limited by the fact that it does not reflect potential unrealized future losses or gains on derivative contracts. However, management compensates for this limitation since derivative assets and liabilities do reflect unrealized gains and losses of derivative contracts. Overall, management believes the mark-to-market adjustments provide an alternative measure that more closely matches realized cash flows for these derivatives but does not substitute for actual cash flows. We also apply the mark-to-market adjustment and the adjustments to present measures referred to as adjusted segment profit or income from continuing operations including mark-to-market adjustments.
