PENN VIRGINIA RESOURCE PARTNERS, L.P.
ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2009 RESULTS
RADNOR, PA (BusinessWire) August 5, 2009 – Penn Virginia Resource Partners, L.P. (NYSE: PVR) today reported financial and operational results for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and provided an update of full-year 2009 guidance.
Second Quarter 2009 Highlights
Second quarter 2009 highlights and results, with comparisons to second quarter 2008 results, included the following:
| · | Distributable cash flow (DCF), a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) measure, of $34.6 million, as compared to a quarterly record $40.6 million in the prior year quarter; |
| · | Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure which excludes the effects of the non-cash change in derivatives fair value, of $17.9 million, or $0.22 per limited partner unit, as compared to a quarterly record $31.2 million, or $0.52 per limited partner unit, in the prior year quarter; |
| · | Net income of $13.3 million, or $0.13 per limited partner unit, as compared to $9.5 million, or $0.08 per limited partner unit; |
| · | Coal production by lessees of 8.7 million tons, as compared to 8.8 million tons; |
| · | Coal royalties revenue, net of coal royalties expense, of $28.4 million, or $3.25 per ton, as compared to $28.2 million, or $3.20 per ton; |
| · | Quarterly natural gas midstream system throughput volumes of 31.3 billion cubic feet (Bcf), or 344 million cubic feet (MMcf) per day, as compared to 23.9 Bcf, or 262 MMcf per day; |
| · | Midstream gross margin, prior to the cash impact of derivatives, of $20.9 million, or $0.67 per Mcf, as compared to a record $32.0 million, or $1.34 per Mcf; and |
| · | Midstream gross margin, adjusted for the cash impact of midstream derivatives, of $24.3 million, or $0.77 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf), as compared to $23.8 million, or $1.00 per Mcf. |
Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP-based measures appear in the financial tables later in this release.
DCF for the second quarter of 2009 of $34.6 million was $5.9 million, or 15 percent lower, than $40.6 million of DCF in the second quarter of 2008 primarily due to:
| · | a $3.0 million decrease in operating income (before depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense) from the coal and natural resource management segment (PVR Coal & Natural Resource Management) primarily due to decreases in oil and gas royalties, timber and other revenue and increased general and administrative (G&A) expense; |
| · | a $3.7 million decrease in operating income (adjusted for the cash impact of midstream derivatives and before DD&A expense) from the natural gas midstream segment (PVR Midstream), primarily due to a decrease in other revenues and increased operating and G&A expense; |
| · | a $1.8 million increase in cash paid to settle interest rate derivatives. |
These decreases in DCF were partially offset by a $2.6 million decrease in maintenance capital expenditures. DCF in the second quarter of 2009 was $3.1 million, or 10 percent, higher than the $31.6 million of DCF in the first quarter of 2009 primarily due to improved midstream segment gross margin.
The $13.3 million, or 43 percent, decrease in adjusted net income as compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to a $7.7 million decrease in operating income from PVR Midstream adjusted for the cash impact of midstream derivatives, a $3.7 million decrease in operating income from PVR Coal & Natural Resource Management and the $1.8 million increase in cash paid to settle interest rate derivatives.
The $3.9 million, or 41 percent, increase in net income as compared to the prior year quarter was due to a $27.9 million decrease in derivatives expense resulting from changes in the valuation of unrealized derivative positions, partially offset by a $22.9 million decrease in operating income, a $1.0 million increase in interest expense and a $0.1 million decrease in other income.
Cash Distribution
As previously announced, on August 14, 2009, we will pay to unitholders of record as of August 3, 2009 a quarterly cash distribution of $0.47 per unit, or an annualized rate of $1.88 per unit, covering the period of April 1 through June 30, 2009. On an annualized basis, this represents an approximate two percent increase over the annualized distribution of $1.84 per unit with respect to the same quarter of 2008 and is unchanged from the distribution paid with respect to each of the previous three quarters.
Management Comment
A. James Dearlove, Chief Executive Officer of PVR, said, “While comparisons to our record second quarter of 2008 are generally unfavorable primarily due to lower commodity prices, we are pleased to report that distributable cash flow generated by our two business segments increased by $3.1 million, or 10 percent, over the first quarter of 2009.
“The significant improvement in sequential quarter results was largely due to PVR Midstream, as fractionation spreads improved over the first quarter of 2009 due to higher natural gas liquids (NGLs) prices and lower costs for purchased natural gas.
“Coal royalties revenue net of coal royalties expense, which accounted for approximately 85 percent of the Coal and Natural Resource Management segment’s second quarter revenues, remained relatively stable with respect to production and within our expectations with respect to average coal royalties per ton. Other revenues, which accounted for the remaining 15 percent of the segment’s second quarter revenues, were adversely impacted by decreases in the prices of timber and natural gas. We continue to benefit from the long-term contract prices our lessees previously negotiated with their customers, although spot prices and prices for metallurgical coal – a small proportion of our royalties revenue – have weakened considerably.
“As of June 30, 2009, we had approximately $200 million of unused borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility, which we believe provides adequate capital to support modest growth opportunities. For example, we recently announced a $28 million expansion of our largest midstream gathering and processing system, which increased our overall processing capacity by one-third. We continue to review growth projects for both segments and, despite recent challenges and the uncertainty in the market, we remain confident in the long-term fundamental characteristics of our business.”
Coal and Natural Resource Management Segment Review
During the second quarter of 2009, operating income for PVR Coal & Natural Resource Management decreased by $3.7 million, or 15 percent, to $20.3 million from $24.0 million in the prior year quarter. Total revenues, net of coal royalties expense, decreased by $2.2 million, or six percent, to $33.5 million from
$35.7 million in the prior year quarter primarily due to a $1.0 million, or 65 percent, decrease in oil and gas royalties revenue resulting from lower commodity prices, as well as reduced timber and other revenues. As compared to the first quarter of 2009, total revenues, net of coal royalties expense, decreased by $3.5 million, or nine percent, primarily due to a $2.3 million decrease in forfeited minimum rentals and a $1.0 million, or three percent, decrease in coal royalties revenue, net of coal royalties expense.
Coal royalties revenue, net of coal royalties expense, was relatively flat compared to the prior year quarter as a 0.1 million ton, or one percent, decrease in lessee production to 8.7 million tons from 8.8 million tons in the prior year quarter was offset by in increase in average net coal royalties per ton of $0.05, or two percent, to $3.25 in the second quarter of 2009 as compared to $3.20 in the prior year quarter. Lessee production decreased in Central Appalachia, partially offset by a lessee production increase in the San Juan Basin. While total lessee production in Central Appalachia decreased from 10.0 to 9.3 million tons, most of the decrease occurred on subleased properties from which we make lower margins per ton produced. Lessee production in Northern Appalachia and the Illinois Basin remained flat as compared to the prior year quarter. Operating expenses, excluding coal royalties expense, increased by 13 percent to $13.2 million primarily due to higher G&A and DD&A expenses.
Natural Gas Midstream Segment Review
During the second quarter, operating income for PVR Midstream decreased to $1.1 million from $20.3 million in the prior year quarter. Midstream gross margin decreased by 35 percent to $20.9 million, or $0.67 per Mcfe, from $32.0 million, or $1.34 per Mcf, in the prior year quarter primarily due to a significant decrease in the price of NGLs as a result of reduced demand, partially offset by a significant increase in system throughput volumes. Adjusted for the cash impact of derivatives, midstream gross margin was $24.3 million, or $0.77 per Mcf, up two percent from $23.8 million, or $1.00 per Mcf, in the prior year quarter and up 18 percent from $20.6 million, or $0.64 per Mcf, in the first quarter of 2009.
System throughput volumes at our gas processing plants and gathering systems increased 31 percent to 31.3 Bcf, or approximately 344 MMcf per day, in the second quarter of 2009 from 23.9 Bcf, or approximately 262 MMcf per day, in the prior year quarter. The volumes increased primarily as a result of contributions from expansions and acquisitions completed in 2008, as well as successful results by producers connected to our gathering systems. System throughput volumes in the second quarter were 15 MMcf per day, or three percent, lower than the 359 MMcf per day in the first quarter of 2009. Other expenses increased by $6.8 million, or 47 percent, to $21.1 million, primarily due to higher operating, G&A and DD&A expenses resulting from acquisitions and increased system throughput volumes.
Capital Resources and Impact of Derivatives
As of June 30, 2009, we had outstanding borrowings of $597.1 million under our $800 million revolving credit facility and $7.5 million of cash and equivalents, with remaining revolver borrowing capacity of approximately $200 million. The $29.0 million increase in outstanding borrowings as compared to the $568.1 million outstanding as of December 31, 2008 was primarily due to capital expenditures during the first half of 2009. Interest expense increased from $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2008 to $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2009 due to the higher level of outstanding borrowings during the quarter as compared to the prior year quarter.
For the second quarter of 2009, derivatives expense was $2.0 million, as compared to derivatives expense of $29.9 million in the prior year quarter. Cash settlements of derivatives included in these amounts resulted in net cash receipts of $1.6 million during the second quarter of 2009 related to commodity and interest rate derivatives, as compared to $9.7 million of net cash payments in the prior year quarter, an $11.3 million improvement. See the Natural Gas Midstream Segment Review in this release for a discussion of the impact of derivatives on PVR Midstream’s gross margin. See the Guidance Table included in this release for details of derivative positions as of June 30, 2009.

(a) | Distributable cash flow represents net income plus depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, plus impairments, plus derivative losses (gains) included inoperating income and other income, plus cash received (paid) for derivative settlements, less equity earnings in joint ventures, plus cash distributions from joint ventures, less maintenance capital expenditures. Distributable cash flow is a significant liquidity metric which is an indicator of our ability to generate cash flows at a level that can sustain or support an increase in quarterly cash distributions paid to our partners. Distributable cash flow is also the quantitative standard used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, ratings and investment recommendations of publicly traded partnerships. Distributable cash flow is presented because we believe it is a useful adjunct to net cash provided by operating activities under GAAP. Distributable cash flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, as an indicator of cash flows, as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income. |
(b) | In accordance with our partnership agreement, incentive distribution rights represent the right to receive an increasing percentage of quarterly distributions ofavailable cash from operating surplus after the minimum quarterly distribution and the target distribution levels have been achieved. |
(c) | Net income as adjusted represents net income adjusted to exclude the effects of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives. We believe thispresentation is commonly used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies in the natural gas midstream industry. Management uses this information for comparative purposes within the industry. Net income as adjusted is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income. |

We estimate that, excluding the derivative positions described above, for every $1.00 MMBtu increase or decrease in the natural gas price, natural gas midstream gross margin and operating income for the remainder of 2009 would decrease or increase by approximately $2.5 million. In addition, we estimate that for every $5.00 per barrel increase or decrease in the crude oil price, natural gas midstream gross margin and operating income for the remainder of 2009 would increase or decrease by approximately $2.4 million. This assumes that crude oil prices, natural gas prices and inlet volumes remain constant at anticipated levels. These estimated changes in gross margin and operating income exclude potential cash receipts or payments in settling these derivative positions.
(1) | A three-way collar is a combination of options: a sold call, a purchased put and a sold put. The sold call establishes the maximum price thatwe will receive for the contracted commodity volumes. The purchased put establishes the minimum price that we will receive for the contracted volumes unless the market price for the commodity falls below the sold put strike price, at which point the minimum price equals the reference price (i.e., NYMEX) plus the excess of the purchased put strike price over the sold put strike price. |
(2) | Our frac spread is the spread between the purchase price for the natural gas we purchase from producers and the sale price for NGLs thatwe sell after processing. We hedge against the variability in the frac spread by entering into swap derivative contracts to sell NGLs forward at a predetermined swap price and to purchase an equivalent volume of natural gas forward on an MMBtu basis. |
