Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1—Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2009. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited consolidated financial statements as reported in the 2008 annual report on Form 10-K have been omitted.
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment to ARB No. 51, (“SFAS 160”). This standard changed the accounting for and reporting of minority interest (now called noncontrolling interest) in the unaudited consolidated financial statements. The adoption of SFAS 160 has resulted in the reclassification of amounts previously attributable to noncontrolling interest to a separate component of stockholders’ equity on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest is shown separately from net loss in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.
Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Note 2 – New Accounting Pronouncements
Effective this quarter, the Company implemented SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”). This standard establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. The adoption of SFAS 165 did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2009 up through August 14, 2009, the date the Company issued these financial statements. During this period, the Company did not have any material recognizable subsequent events. However, the Company did have nonrecognizable subsequent events as disclosed in Footnote 9.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. SFAS 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board (APB) 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, (FAS 107-1) to amend SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments and APB 28, Interim Financial Reporting. SFAS 107-1 changes the reporting requirements on certain fair value disclosures of financial instruments to include interim reporting periods. The Company adopted FAS 107-1 in the second quarter of 2009. There was no impact on the Company’s operating results, financial position or cash flows; however additional disclosures were added for the Company’s fair value of financial instruments. See Note 3 “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” for more details.
Note 3 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value measurements, for all its financial instruments. SFAS 157 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
● | Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets |
| |
● | Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable |
| |
● | Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable |
The following describes the valuation methodologies we used to measure financial instruments at fair value.
Derivative Instruments
The follow table provides a summary of the fair value of our derivative liabilities measured on a recurring basis under SFAS 157:

At June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had commodity derivative financial instruments in place that are accounted for under SFAS 133. The Company does not apply hedge accounting as allowed by SFAS 133, therefore, the changes in fair value subsequent to the initial measurement are recorded in income. The estimated fair value amounts of the Company’s derivative instruments have been determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information which resulted in the Company classifying such derivatives as Level 2. Although the Company’s derivative instruments are valued using public indexes, the instruments themselves are traded with third-party counterparties and are not openly traded on an exchange.
As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company’s derivative contracts were with major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings which are believed to have a minimal credit risk. As such, the Company is exposed to credit risk to the extent of nonperformance by the counterparties in the derivative contracts discussed above; however, the Company does not anticipate such nonperformance.
The estimated fair value of short-term financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature. The estimated fair value of the Company’s Senior Credit Agreement approximates carrying value because the facility’s interest rate approximates current market rates.
Note 4 —Derivative Financial Instruments
We entered into commodity derivative financial instruments intended to hedge our exposure to market fluctuations of oil and natural gas prices. As of June 30, 2009, we had commodity swaps for the following oil volumes:
| | Barrels per quarter | | | Barrels per day | | | Price per barrel | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
2009 | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Third quarter | | | 8,400 | | | | 91 | | | $ | 72.55 | |
Fourth quarter | | | 8,400 | | | | 91 | | | $ | 72.55 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

First quarter | | | 14,825 | | | | 165 | | | $ | 93.50 | |

Third quarter | | | 15,000 | | | | 163 | | | $ | 105.45 | |
Fourth quarter | | | 15,000 | | | | 163 | | | $ | 105.45 | |

Fourth quarter | | | 13,500 | | | | 147 | | | $ | 105.45 | |
As of June 30, 2009, the fair value of the above commodity swaps amounted to $3,096,630.
On June 5, 2008, the Company purchased a floor at $110 per barrel for 100 bbls per day for the calendar year 2009 for a price of $363,175. As of June 30, 2009 the fair value of the floor was $825,122.
On October 6, 2008, the Company purchased a floor at $7.75 per MCF for 20,000 MCF per month for the calendar year 2009 for a price of $200,400. As of June 30, 2009 the fair value of the floor was $332,898.

General
Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation and subsidiaries (“Magnum Hunter”) is a Houston, Texas based independent exploration and production company engaged in the acquisition and development of producing properties, secondary enhanced oil recovery projects and production of oil and natural gas in the United States.
We develop and produce low to medium risk projects that have the potential for multiple producing horizons, and offer repeatable success allowing for meaningful production and reserve growth. We currently own interests in approximately 286,282 gross (50,611 net) leasehold acres, of which 261,147 gross (43,281 net) acres are classified as undeveloped acreage.
In 2007, we acquired oil and gas producing assets in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota and added mineral acreage in the Permian Basin located in West Texas. In 2008, we participated in new prospects located in southwest Louisiana as well as in east Texas. During 2009, the Company began to operate several of our projects with the intention of operating a much larger portion of our projects in the future. In May 2009, Messrs. Gary C. Evans and Ronald D. Ormand joined the Company as Chairman of the Board and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.
As of June 30, 2009, we held interests in approximately 238 producing wells in Texas, Louisiana and North Dakota. Our current drilling inventory includes prospects located in Texas, Louisiana, New Mexico, North Dakota and Kentucky.
We recognize the value of hedging oil and gas production through both derivative and physical contracts to help stabilize future cash flow. During the second and third quarters of 2008, we entered into three separate hedging agreements. In June 2008, we purchased put options for crude oil at a price of $110 per bbl for 100 bbls per day of production during 2009. The cost of these crude oil put options was $363,175. We also entered into swap agreements in September covering 207,400 barrels of crude oil at a price of $105 per bbl for the period of October 2008 to December 2011. We incurred no cost in entering into these swap agreements. In addition to crude oil hedges, we hedged natural gas production in October 2008. We purchased natural gas put options at a strike price of $7.75 per mcf for 658 mcf per day (240,000 total mcf) of production during 2009. The cost of these natural gas put options was $200,400.
As of June 30, 2009, our total proved reserves were 3,726 mboe, a gain of 608,000 Boe from year end 2008 of 3,118 mboe. This gain in proved reserves was primarily the result of gains from North Dakota proved reserves of 402 mboe. The total June 30, 2009 mid-year 2009 proved reserves is comprised of 2,910 mbbls of crude oil and NGLs and 816 mboe of natural gas. All mid-year reserve estimations were calculated internally by Magnum Hunter Resources engineering personnel.

Results of Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008
The Company’s net production increased by 20,426 boe from 48,798 boe to 69,224 boe for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Production during this period included 36,882 barrels of oil, 127,778 mcf of natural gas, and 11,046 barrels of natural gas liquids for a barrel-equivalent total of 67,100 boe compared to 30,670 barrels of oil, 75,637 mcf of natural gas, and 5,522 barrels of natural gas liquids for a barrel-equivalent total of 48,798 boe for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the average daily production was approximately 761 boe per day compared to average daily production of 536 boe per day for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
The Company's realized commodity prices for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 were approximately $51.19 per barrel of oil, $2.55 per mcf of natural gas, and $19.44 per barrel of natural gas liquids compared to $113.58 per barrel of oil, $7.91 per mcf of natural gas, and $51.95 per barrel of natural gas liquids for the comparable prior year period.
Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 consisted $2,428,891 of oil and gas sales compared to oil and gas sales of $4,368,442 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in revenue from oil and gas sales was due primarily to significantly lower commodity prices.
Lease operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 totaled $1,273,205 compared to lease operating expenses of $1,346,708 for the prior year comparable period. While lease operating expenses have not come off as quickly as the drop in commodity prices in the initial months of 2009, the industry has begun to see a retreat in these costs reflecting the current market conditions.
Exploration costs for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 were $19,201 compared to $37,654 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Exploration costs represent our drilling costs associated with dry holes and the carrying costs of properties. The decrease in exploration costs is the result of fewer dry hole expenses due to our curtailment of exploratory drilling.
We incurred no expenses related to the impairment of oil and gas properties in the quarters ended June 30, 2009 or 2008. Impairment expenses represent the write-down of previously capitalized expenses for productive wells. We take an impairment charge for a productive well when there is an indication that we may not receive production payments equal to the net capitalized costs. No wells needed to be written down in either quarter.
Our expenses for depreciation, depletion, and accretion for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 totaled $799,335 compared to $612,021 for the same period in the prior year. This was due to our increased production as well as an increase in depletion rates.
General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 totaled $1,445,062 compared to general and administrative expenses of $894,329 for the prior year period. General and administrative expenses for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 included expenses of $519,498 and $296,682, respectively, for new common stock grants for compensation and common stock options granted under our Stock Incentive Plan. Without giving effect to expenses for common shares and stock options, our general and administrative expenses for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 were $925,564 and $597,647, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses (other than expenses for options and common shares) between reporting periods was due to the increased number of employees and additional office space in conjunction with the expansion of the Company's operations.
We incurred a net loss from operations of $1,500,084 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to net income from operations of $1,477,730 during the same period in the prior year. The increase in net loss is due to lower revenue because of lower commodity prices and higher depletion because of increased production.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, interest expense totaled $607,509, compared to $590,819 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The increase in interest expense was principally due to decreased capitalization of interest and a LIBOR floor of 2.5% being placed on our long term debt that did not exist in the 2008 period.
Beginning in March 2007, we entered into commodity derivative financial instruments for purposes of hedging our exposure to market fluctuations of oil prices. During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we incurred a loss on derivative contracts of $1,774,419 compared to a loss of $2,778,056 for the comparable period in 2008. Our loss on derivative contracts include both $756,342 in gains on the actual settlement of certain derivative financial instruments during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and the unrealized loss of $2,530,761 based on the changes in the fair value of derivative instruments covering positions beyond June 30, 2009.
We incurred a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $3,393,576 ($.10 per share) during the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to a net loss of $1,882,826 ($.05 per share) to common shareholders for the same period in 2008. The increase in net loss was primarily the result of a decrease in commodity prices leading to lower revenue and an increase in depletion due to higher production rates.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008
The Company’s net production for the six months ended June 30, 2009 included 70,251 barrels of oil, 249,651 mcf of natural gas, and 23,147 barrels of natural gas liquids for a barrel-equivalent total of 135,007 boe. This compared to 60,857 barrels of oil, 122,523 mcf of natural gas, and 9,557 barrels of natural gas liquids for a barrel-equivalent total of 90,834 boe for the six months ended June 30, 2008.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the average daily production was approximately 746 boe per day compared to average daily production of 499 boe per day for the six months ended June 30, 2008.
The Company's realized commodity prices for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $42.95 per barrel of oil, $2.89 per mcf of natural gas, and $21.95 per barrel of natural gas liquids compared to $99.87 per barrel of oil, $7.09 per mcf of natural gas, and $50.31 per barrel of natural gas liquids for the comparable prior year period.
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $4,445,927 compared to revenues of $7,526,443 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 consisted $4,245,927 of oil and gas sales compared to oil and gas sales of $7,426,443 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in revenue from oil and gas sales was due primarily to a decrease in commodity prices partially offset by increased production due to our successful secondary enhanced oil recovery operations in North Dakota and our drilling results in Crockett County, Texas.
Lease operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $2,517,767 compared to lease operating expenses of $2,569,106 for the prior year comparable period. The slight decrease in lease operating expenses is due primarily to the fact that operating expenses are beginning to come down as commodity prices decrease.
Exploration costs for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $113,676 compared to $610,164 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Exploration costs represent our drilling costs associated with dry holes and the carrying costs of properties. The decrease in exploration costs is the result of fewer dry hole expense due to our curtailment of exploratory drilling.
We incurred no expenses related to the impairment of oil and gas properties in the six months ended June 30, 2009 as well as during the prior year comparable period. Impairment expenses represent the write-down of previously capitalized expenses for productive wells. We take an impairment charge for a productive well when there is an indication that we may not receive production payments equal to the net capitalized costs.
Our expenses for depreciation, depletion, and accretion for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $2,106,862, compared to $1,137,193 for the same period in the prior year. This was due to our increased production as well as an increase in depletion rates.
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $2,191,675 compared to general and administrative expenses of $2,187,772 for the prior year period. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 included expenses of $712,273 and $891,317, respectively, for new common stock grants for compensation and common stock options granted under our Stock Incentive Plan. Without giving effect to expenses for common shares and stock options, our general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 were $1,479,402 and $1,296,455, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses (other than expenses for options and common shares) between reporting periods was due to the increased number of employees and additional office space in conjunction with the expansion of the Company's operations.
We realized a loss from operations of $2,484,053 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to net income from operations of $1,022,208 during the same period in the prior year. The decrease is due to lower revenue because of lower commodity prices and higher depletion because of increased production.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, interest expense totaled $1,178,186, compared to $1,105,780 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The increase in interest expense was principally due to decreased capitalization of interest and a LIBOR floor of 2.5% being placed on our long term debt that did not exist in the 2008 period.
Beginning in March 2007, we entered into commodity derivative financial instruments for purposes of hedging our exposure to market fluctuations of oil prices. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we incurred a loss on derivative contracts of $1,218,104 compared to a loss of $3,463,650 for the comparable period in 2008. Our loss on derivative contracts include both $1,811,074 in gains on the actual settlement of certain derivative financial instruments during six months ended June 30, 2009 and the unrealized losses related to unsettled swap contracts and the floors of $3,029,178. Unrealized losses are based on the changes in the fair value of derivative instruments covering positions beyond June 30, 2009.
We incurred a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $4,764,859 ($.13 per share) during the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to a net loss of $3,517,031 ($.10 per share) for the same period in 2008. The increase in net loss was primarily the result of a decrease in commodity prices leading to lower revenue and an increase in depletion due to higher production rates.
Reserves
Our natural gas and crude oil reserves have been estimated internally as of June 30, 2009 by Magnum Hunter engineering personnel based predominantly on third party prepared engineering reports. Natural gas and crude oil reserves and the estimates of the present value of future net revenues therefrom, were determined based on then current prices and costs. Since January 1, 2009, we have not filed, nor were we required to file, any reports concerning our oil and gas reserves with any federal authority or agency.
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and estimates of reserve quantities and values must be viewed as being subject to significant change as more data about the properties becomes available.
The following table sets forth our estimated proved reserves as of June 30, 2009.

Plan of Operations
Magnum Hunter’s plan of operations is to capitalize on market opportunities to acquire leveraged and underperforming producing assets. The Company intends to grow its asset base with a focus on acquiring distressed assets, increasing the percentage of operated assets, increasing exposure to resource plays and unconventional areas and leveraging management’s operating experience. We plan to continue further exploration and development of oil and natural gas prospects that we currently own while concentrating on those with the lowest development and lifting costs. Consistent with our plans is our structuring and staffing of our company towards increased operations of oil and gas properties anywhere in the U.S.
The continued development of our properties and prospects and the pursuit of new opportunities will require that we maintain access to adequate levels of capital. We strive for an optimal balance between our property portfolio and our capital structure that allows for growth and benefit to our shareholders. The balancing of capital needs and property holdings will be challenging during times of lower commodity prices, the access to capital markets and the complex global economic picture.
The business of oil and natural gas property acquisition, exploration and development is capital intensive. The level of success attainable by an oil and gas company is directly linked to and limited by the amount of available capital. A principal part of our plan of operations is to raise the additional capital to finance future acquisitions and the exploration and development of our current oil and natural gas prospects and the acquisition of additional properties. As explained under “Financial Condition and Liquidity” below, based on our present working capital, borrowings and borrowing available under the credit facility and expected cash flow from operations, we believe we have sufficient working capital to fund our operations and expected commitments through at least June 30, 2010.
We intend to use the services of independent consultants and contractors to perform various professional services, including reservoir engineering, land, legal, environmental, audit and tax services. We believe that by limiting our management and employee costs, we are able to better control overall costs and retain flexibility in terms of project management.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The Company’s cash flow from operations increased $481,396 from $722,850 at June 30, 2008 to $1,254,246 at June 30, 2009. This increase was due to increases in accounts payable, revenue payable, accrued expenses and accounts receivable partially offset by decreased revenue due to decreased commodity prices. Our cash used in investing activities increased from $7,145,762 at June 30, 2008 to $7,830,600 at June 30, 2009. This was due to increased investment activity on our Cinco Terry property. Net cash provided by financing activity was $1,133,507 at June 30, 2009 compared to $1,444,610 at June 30, 2008. The Company borrowed less money because it was able to generate funds from results of operations during the period.
As of the date of this report, we estimate our capital budget for fiscal 2009 to be approximately $11.6 million of which, $5.7 million has been expended during the first two quarters of 2009, including:
| · | Up to $3.8 million to be deployed for drilling in Cinco Terry of which $2.9 million has been expended during the first two quarters of 2009. |
| · | Approximately $1.0 million for drilling and completion operations in the Surprise Prospect that has been expended during the first two quarters of 2009. |
| · | Approximately $300,000 to be used for new drilling and salt water disposal facilities in the East Chalkley Prospect and Leblanc Prospect. |
| · | Approximately $4.5 million to drill new production wells and maintain secondary recovery efforts in North Dakota of which $400,000 has been committed to date. |
| · | Approximately $2.0 million to be used in connection with other prospect areas including $1.4 million deployed in the first two quarters of 2009. |
As of June 30, 2009, we had total assets of $56,913,540 and working capital of $2,265,645. In addition, we have $65.0 million in credit facilities, of which $15.0 million was outstanding on the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement and $7.5 million was outstanding on the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2009. We have currently drawn down the remaining credit available under the current borrowing base of $12 million. The borrowing base under our current credit facilities will be re-determined based on mid-year reserves. Based on our present working capital and current rate of cash flow from operations, we believe that we have available to us sufficient working capital to fund our operations and expected commitments for exploration and development through at least June 30, 2010. However, in the event we receive calls for capital greater than, or generate cash flow from operations less than, we expect, we may require additional working capital to fund our operations and expected commitments for exploration and development prior to June 30, 2010.
We may seek to obtain additional working capital through the sale of our securities and, subject to the successful deployment of our cash on hand, we will endeavor to obtain additional capital through bank lines of credit, private equity investors, hedge funds and project financing. However, other than our existing credit facilities, we have no agreements or understandings with any third parties at this time for our receipt of additional working capital and we have no history of generating significant cash from existing oil and gas operations. Further, as described below, under the terms of our existing credit facilities, we are prohibited from incurring any additional debt from third parties. Our ability to obtain additional working capital through bank lines of credit, private equity investors, hedge funds and project financing may be subject to the repayment of our credit facilities. Consequently, there can be no assurance we will be able to obtain continued access to capital as and when needed or, if so, that the terms of any available financing will be subject to commercially reasonable terms. If we are unable to access additional capital in significant amounts as needed, we may not be able to develop our current prospects and properties, may have to forfeit our interest in certain prospects and may not otherwise be able to develop our business. In such an event, our stock price may be materially adversely affected.
CIT Credit Facility
On September 9, 2008, we entered into a $50.0 million Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with CIT Capital USA Inc., as administrative agent for the lenders, and a $15.0 million Second Lien Term Loan Agreement (the "Second Lien Term Loan Agreement") with CIT Capital USA Inc., as administrative agent for the lenders.
The Credit Agreement provides for a $50.0 million first lien revolving credit facility, with an initial borrowing base availability of $17.0 million. The maturity date of the Credit Agreement is September 9, 2011. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either a fluctuating base rate or a rate equal to LIBOR plus, in each case, a margin determined based on our utilization of the borrowing base.
The Credit Agreement was amended on March 19, 2009. The amended terms include the adjustment of negative covenants, the addition of a LIBOR floor of 2.5%, a fifty basis point increase to the margin and a reduction of the borrowing base to $12.0 million from $17.0 million.
The Second Lien Term Loan Agreement provides for a $15 million second lien term loan facility. The maturity date of the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement is September 9, 2012. Borrowings under the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either a fluctuating base rate plus 6.50% per annum or a rate equal to LIBOR plus 7.50% per annum.
PRC Williston LLC, our subsidiary, has guaranteed the performance of all of our obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement and related agreements pursuant to a Guaranty and Collateral Agreement and a Second Lien Guaranty and Collateral Agreement each dated as of September 9, 2008. Subject to certain permitted liens, our obligations have been secured by the grant of a first priority lien on no less than 80% of the value of our and PRC Williston's existing and to-be-acquired oil and gas properties and the grant of a first priority security interest in related personal property of ours and PRC Williston. We also granted a first priority security interest in our ownership interest in PRC Williston, subject only to certain permitted liens.
As of June 30, 2009, we had drawn $22.5 million on the CIT facility, of which $15.0 million was drawn on the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement and $7.5 million was drawn on the Credit Agreement. Subsequent to June 30, 2009 and in light of CIT Capital USA Inc.’s recent financial situation, we have drawn down the $4.5 million remaining under the current borrowing base on the Credit Agreement that is maintained as cash in a financial institution.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
Glossary of Oil and Natural Gas Terms
The following is a description of the meanings of some of the oil and natural gas industry terms used in this report.
bbl. Stock tank barrel, or 42 U.S. gallons liquid volume, used in this report in reference to crude oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.
bcf. Billion cubic feet of natural gas.
boe. Barrels of crude oil equivalent, determined using the ratio of six mcf of natural gas to one bbl of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids.
boe/d. boe per day.
Completion. The process of treating a drilled well followed by the installation of permanent equipment for the production of natural gas or oil, or in the case of a dry hole, the reporting of abandonment to the appropriate agency.
Condensate. Hydrocarbons which are in the gaseous state under reservoir conditions and which become liquid when temperature or pressure is reduced. A mixture of pentanes and higher hydrocarbons.
Development well. A well drilled within the proved area of a natural gas or oil reservoir to the depth of a stratigraphic horizon known to be productive.
Drilling locations. Total gross locations specifically quantified by management to be included in the Company’s multi-year drilling activities on existing acreage. The Company’s actual drilling activities may change depending on the availability of capital, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, drilling results and other factors.
Dry hole. A well found to be incapable of producing either oil or gas in sufficient quantities to justify completion as an oil or gas well.
Exploratory well. A well drilled to find and produce natural gas or oil reserves not classified as proved, to find a new reservoir in a field previously found to be productive of natural gas or oil in another reservoir or to extend a known reservoir.
Field. An area consisting of either a single reservoir or multiple reservoirs, all grouped on or related to the same individual geological structural feature and/or stratigraphic condition.
Formation. An identifiable layer of rocks named after its geographical location and dominant rock type.
Lease. A legal contract that specifies the terms of the business relationship between an energy company and a landowner or mineral rights holder on a particular tract of land.
Leasehold. Mineral rights leased in a certain area to form a project area.
mbbls. Thousand barrels of crude oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.
mboe. Thousand barrels of crude oil equivalent, determined using the ratio of six mcf of natural gas to one bbl of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids
mcf. Thousand cubic feet of natural gas.
mcfe. Thousand cubic feet equivalent, determined using the ratio of six mcf of natural gas to one bbl of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids.
mmbbls. Million barrels of crude oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.
mmboe. Million barrels of crude oil equivalent, determined using the ratio of six mcf of natural gas to one bbl of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids.
mmbtu. Million British Thermal Units.
mmcf. Million cubic feet of natural gas.
Net acres, net wells, or net reserves. The sum of the fractional working interest owned in gross acres, gross wells, or gross reserves, as the case may be.
ngl. Natural gas liquids, or liquid hydrocarbons found in association with natural gas.
Overriding royalty interest. Is similar to a basic royalty interest except that it is created out of the working interest. For example, an operator possesses a standard lease providing for a basic royalty to the lessor or mineral rights owner of 1/8 of 8/8. This then entitles the operator to retain 7/8 of the total oil and natural gas produced. The 7/8 in this case is the 100% working interest the operator owns. This operator may assign his working interest to another operator subject to a retained 1/8 overriding royalty. This would then result in a basic royalty of 1/8, an overriding royalty of 1/8 and a working interest of 3/4. Overriding royalty interest owners have no obligation or responsibility for developing and operating the property. The only expenses borne by the overriding royalty owner are a share of the production or severance taxes and sometimes costs incurred to make the oil or gas salable.
Plugging and abandonment. Refers to the sealing off of fluids in the strata penetrated by a well so that the fluids from one stratum will not escape into another or to the surface. Regulations of all states require plugging of abandoned wells.
Present value of future net revenues (PV-10). The present value of estimated future revenues to be generated from the production of proved reserves, before income taxes, of proved reserves calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board guidelines, net of estimated production and future development costs, using prices and costs as of the date of estimation without future escalation, without giving effect to hedging activities, non-property related expenses such a general and administrative expenses, debt service and depreciation, depletion and amortization, and discounted using an annual discount rate of 10%.
PV-10. Pre–tax present value of estimated future net revenues discounted at 10%.
Production. Natural resources, such as oil or gas, taken out of the ground.
Proved oil and gas reserves. Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, i.e., prices and costs as of the date the estimate is made. Prices include consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual arrangements, but not on escalations based upon future conditions.
(i) | Reservoirs are considered proved if economic producibility is supported by either actual production or conclusive formation test. The area of a reservoir considered proved includes (A) that portion delineated by drilling and defined by gas-oil and/or oil-water contacts, if any; and (B) the immediately adjoining portions not yet drilled, but which can be reasonably judged as economically productive on the basis of available geological and engineering data. In the absence of information on fluid contacts, the lowest known structural occurrence of hydrocarbons controls the lower proved limit of the reservoir. |
(ii) | Reserves which can be produced economically through application of improved recovery techniques (such as fluid injection) are included in the "proved" classification when successful testing by a pilot project, or the operation of an installed program in the reservoir, provides support for the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based. |
(iii) | Estimates of proved reserves do not include the following: (A) oil that may become available from known reservoirs but is classified separately as "indicated additional reserves"; (B) crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, the recovery of which is subject to reasonable doubt because of uncertainty as to geology, reservoir characteristics, or economic factors; C) crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, that may occur in undrilled prospects; and (D) crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, that may be recovered from oil shales, coal, gilscnite , and other such sources. |
Proved developed oil and gas reserves. Proved developed oil and gas reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Additional oil and gas expected to be obtained through the application of fluid injection or other improved recovery techniques for supplementing the natural forces and mechanisms of primary recovery should be included as "proved developed reserves" only after testing by a pilot project or after the operation of an installed program has confirmed through production response that increased recovery will be achieved.
Proved undeveloped reserves. Proved undeveloped oil and gas reserves are reserves that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. Reserves on undrilled acreage shall be limited to those drilling units offsetting productive units that are reasonably certain of production when drilled. Proved reserves for other undrilled units can be claimed only where it can be demonstrated with certainty that there is continuity of production from the existing productive formation. Under no circumstances should estimates for proved undeveloped reserves he attributable to any acreage for which an application of fluid injection or other improved recovery technique is contemplated, unless such techniques have been proved effective by actual tests in the area and in the same reservoir.
Probable Reserves. Probable reserves are those additional reserves which analysis of geoscience and engineering data indicate are less likely to be recovered than proved reserves but more certain to be recovered than possible reserves. It is equally likely that actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater than or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves (2P). In this context, when probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 50-percent probability that the actual quantities recovered will equal or exceed the 2P estimate.
Possible Reserves. Possible reserves are those additional reserves which analysis of geoscience and engineering data suggest are less likely to be recoverable than probable reserves. The total quantities ultimately recovered from the project have a low probability to exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves (3P), which is equivalent to the high estimate scenario. In this context, when probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 10-percent probability that the actual quantities recovered will equal or exceed the 3P estimate.
Productive well. A well that is found to be capable of producing either oil or gas in sufficient quantities to justify completion as an oil or gas well.
Project. A targeted development area where it is probable that commercial gas can be produced from new wells.
Prospect. A specific geographic area which, based on supporting geological, geophysical or other data and also preliminary economic analysis using reasonably anticipated prices and costs, is deemed to have potential for the discovery of commercial hydrocarbons.
Recompletion. The process of re-entering an existing well bore that is either producing or not producing and completing new reservoirs in an attempt to establish or increase existing production.
Reserves. Oil, natural gas and gas liquids thought to be accumulated in known reservoirs.
Reservoir. A porous and permeable underground formation containing a natural accumulation of producible nature gas and/or oil that is confined by impermeable rock or water barriers and is separate from other reservoirs.
Secondary Recovery. A recovery process that uses mechanisms other than the natural pressure of the reservoir, such as gas injection or water flooding, to produce residual oil and natural gas remaining after the primary recovery phase.
Shut-in. A well that has been capped (having the valves locked shut) for an undetermined amount of time. This could be for additional testing, could be to wait for pipeline or processing facility, or a number of other reasons.
Standardized measure. The present value of estimated future cash inflows from proved oil and natural gas reserves, less future development, abandonment, production and income tax expenses, discounted at 10% per annum to reflect timing of future cash flows and using the same pricing assumptions as were used to calculate PV-10. Standardized measure differs from PV-10 because standardized measure includes the effect of future income taxes.
Successful. A well is determined to be successful if it is producing oil or natural gas, or awaiting hookup, but not abandoned or plugged.
Undeveloped acreage. Lease acreage on which wells have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production of commercial quantities of oil and natural gas regardless of whether such acreage contains proved reserves.
Water flood. A method of secondary recovery in which water is injected into the reservoir formation to displace residual oil and enhance hydrocarbon recovery.
Working interest. The operating interest that gives the owner the right to drill, produce and conduct operating activities on the property and receive a share of production and requires the owner to pay a share of the costs of drilling and production operations.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable.
ITEM 4(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our chairman and chief financial officer have reviewed and continue to evaluate the effectiveness of our controls and procedures over financial reporting and disclosure (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. This term refers to the controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chairman and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating our controls and procedures over financial reporting and disclosure, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chairman and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our chairman and chief financial officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2009.
Changes in Internal Control. We made no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
