Approach Resources Inc.
Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results
Fort Worth, Texas, August 2, 2012 – Approach Resources Inc.(NASDAQ: AREX) today reported results for second quarter 2012. Highlights for second quarter 2012 include:
• | Production of 702 MBoe (7.7 MBoe/d), an increase of 16% over second quarter 2011 and 7% over first quarter 2012 |
• | Net income of $7.9 million, or $0.23 per share |
• | Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) of $1.6 million, or $0.05 per share |
• | EBITDAX (non-GAAP) of $20.1 million, or $0.60 per share |
Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Second quarter 2012 production totaled 702 MBoe (7.7 MBoe/d), compared to 608 MBoe (6.7 MBoe/d) produced in second quarter 2011, a 16% increase. Estimated second quarter 2012 production increased 7%, compared to first quarter 2012 production of 654 MBoe (7.2 MBoe/d). Oil production for second quarter 2012 increased 120% to 230 MBbls, compared to 104 MBbls produced in second quarter 2011, and increased 20% compared to first quarter 2012 oil production of 191 MBbls. Second quarter 2012 production was 33% oil, 32% NGLs and 35% natural gas, compared to 17% oil, 39% NGLs and 44% natural gas in second quarter 2011.
Net income for second quarter 2012 was $7.9 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, on revenues of $29.9 million. This compares to net income for second quarter 2011 of $8 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, on revenues of $29.1 million. Net income for second quarter 2012 included an unrealized gain on commodity derivatives of $9.4 million and a realized gain on commodity derivatives of $361,000. The decline in net income and net income per diluted share was driven by lower commodity price realizations and higher operating expenses, partially offset by higher production.
Excluding the unrealized gain on commodity derivatives and related income taxes, adjusted net income (non-GAAP) for second quarter 2012 was $1.6 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to $6.5 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for second quarter 2011. See “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial and Other Measures” below for our reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income.
EBITDAX (non-GAAP) for second quarter 2012 was $20.1 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to $21 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, for second quarter 2011. See “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial and Other Measures” below for our reconciliation of EBITDAX to net income.
Average realized prices for second quarter 2012, before the effect of commodity derivatives, were $83.21 per Bbl of oil, $33.75 per Bbl of NGLs and $2.19 per Mcf of natural gas, compared to $97.89 per Bbl of oil, $51.88 per Bbl of NGLs and $4.16 per Mcf of natural gas for second quarter 2011. Our average realized price, including the effect of commodity derivatives, was $43.12 per Boe for second quarter 2012, down 10% compared to $48.01 per Boe for second quarter 2011.
Lease operating expenses trended higher in second quarter 2012 compared to second quarter 2011 due to higher production volumes and oil-weighted growth. Severance and production taxes decreased due to our increase in oil sales as a percentage of total oil, NGL and gas sales, as oil sales are taxed at a lower rate. General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher salaries and benefits resulting from increased staffing, partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation. Depletion, depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily due to higher production and increased investment in our oil-focused, Wolfcamp Shale play, relative to estimated proved developed reserves.
Operations Update
During second quarter 2012, the Company drilled seven wells and completed 10 wells, including eight of 11 wells that were waiting on completion at March 31, 2012. At June 30, 2012, we had eight wells waiting on completion, of which five have since been completed as producers and one has been completed as a water source well. We also recompleted 14 wells during the second quarter of 2012. We currently have two horizontal rigs and one vertical rig working.
In Project Pangea, the University 45 A 703H was completed with 29 stages. The University 45 A 703H targeted the Wolfcamp “B” zone and flowed at maximum 24-hour rate of 875 Boe/d, made up of 743 barrels of oil per day (Bo/d), 73 barrels of NGLs per day and 354 Mcf of natural gas per day (Mcf/d). The University 45 A 703H well has produced at an average 30-day rate of 612 Boe/d, made up of 453 Bo/d, 88 barrels of NGLs per day and 428 Mcf/d. The Company also drilled the University 45 B 2402H and University 45 B 2403H in the Wolfcamp “B” zone. Both wells were recently completed and are in the early stages of flowing back fracture stimulation fluids.
In Pangea West, we tested the Wolfcamp “A” zone with two pilot wells, the Pangea West 6602H and the Pangea West 6601H. These wells were completed with 28 and 29 stages, respectively. The Pangea West 6602H flowed at an initial maximum 24-hour rate of 494 Boe/d, made up of 391 Bo/d, 57 barrels of NGLs per day and 278 Mcf/d. The Pangea West 6601H flowed at an initial maximum 24-hour rate of 461 Boe/d, made up of 388 Bo/d, 40 barrels of NGLs per day and 196 Mcf/d. Both wells are in the early stages of flowing back fracture stimulation fluids, and the daily production rate of each well continues to climb. The Company is encouraged by the production data from the first two pilot wells targeting the Wolfcamp “A” zone and plans to test the “A” zone in Project Pangea during the third quarter of 2012. The Company also plans to test central Project Pangea and northeast Project Pangea with horizontal wells during the third and fourth quarters of 2012.
Management Comment
J. Ross Craft, Approach’s President and CEO, said, “Our continued focus on the oil-rich Wolfcamp play drove production to the highest level in our Company’s history. Significantly, our oil production rose 120% compared to the prior-year period as we continue to shift our product mix from natural gas to oil and liquids. Looking ahead, we have many exciting plans for the second half of the year and beyond. We are pleased to have entered into development drilling in the “B” bench of the Wolfcamp, and we’re encouraged by our initial pilot wells targeting the “A” bench. The Company has plans to drill another test well to the “A” zone in Project Pangea during the third quarter of 2012. In addition, we are working on infrastructure plans that we anticipate will lower our trucking differential costs, as well as water sourcing plans. We expect to begin to realize the impact of adding a second rig in the Wolfcamp during the second half of the year, and believe that we are on track to continue to deliver strong production growth for 2012.”

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial and Other Measures
This release contains certain financial measures that are non-GAAP measures. We have provided reconciliations below of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and on the Non-GAAP Financial Information page in the Investor Relations section of our website atwww.approachresources.com.
Adjusted Net Income
This release contains the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, which excludes (1) unrealized gain on commodity derivatives, (2) gain on sale of oil and gas properties, and (3) related income taxes. The amounts included in the calculation of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share below were computed in accordance with GAAP. We believe adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are useful to investors because they provide readers with a more meaningful measure of our profitability before recording certain items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably determined. However, these measures are provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes), included in our SEC filings and posted on our website. The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (in thousands, except per-share amounts).

EBITDAX
We define EBITDAX as net income, plus (1) exploration expense, (2) depletion, depreciation and amortization expense, (3) share-based compensation expense, (4) unrealized gain on commodity derivatives, (5) gain on sale of oil and gas properties, (6) interest expense, and (7) income taxes. EBITDAX is not a measure of net income or cash flow as determined by GAAP. The amounts included in the calculation of EBITDAX were computed in accordance with GAAP. EBITDAX is presented herein and reconciled to the GAAP measure of net income because of its wide acceptance by the investment community as a financial indicator of a company’s ability to internally fund development and exploration activities. This measure is provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes), included in our SEC filings and posted on our website. The following table provides a reconciliation of EBITDAX to net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively (in thousands, except per-share amounts).

Liquidity
Liquidity is calculated by adding the net funds available under our revolving credit facility and cash and cash equivalents. We use liquidity as an indicator of the Company’s ability to fund development and exploration activities. However, this measurement has limitations. This measurement can vary from year-to-year for the Company and can vary among companies based on what is or is not included in the measurement on a company’s financial statements. This measurement is provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes), included in our SEC filings and posted on our website. The table below summarizes our liquidity at June 30, 2012 (in thousands).
