PENN VIRGINIA CORPORATION ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2003 RESULTS
PROVIDES 2003 GUIDANCE UPDATE
RADNOR, Pa., (PR Newswire) November 5, 2003 - Penn Virginia Corporation (NYSE: PVA) today reported third quarter 2003 net income of $5.4 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, up 69 percent from $3.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the same period in 2002. Operating cash flow (a non-GAAP measure defined as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities) was $27.9 million during the third quarter of 2003, an increase of 40 percent compared to $19.9 million in the third quarter of 2002. The increases in the Company's net income and operating cash flow resulted primarily from higher realized natural gas and oil prices and increased production, offset in part by related operating expenses.
In the first nine months of 2003, PVA reported net income of $22.3 million, or $2.47 per diluted share, an increase of 130 percent compared to net income of $9.7 million, or $1.09 per diluted share in the same period of 2002. Included in net income for the first nine months of 2003 was after-tax income of $1.4 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, related to the adoption of SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." Revenues of $133.7 million for the first nine months of 2003 were 70 percent higher than revenues of $78.8 million in the corresponding period of 2002. Operating cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was $82.3 million for the first nine months of 2003, an increase of 69 percent from $48.7 million in the same period of 2002.
Oil & Gas Segment Review
As described in more detail in the Company's October 29, 2003 news release, operational highlights and updates for the third quarter of 2003 include:
Production:
- Progress made in establishing initial production for South Louisiana drilling successes
- Broussard field commenced production October 1
- Three wildcat discoveries in Stella field are expected to commence production by mid-November;
- An unsuccessful development well in South Texas and pipeline installation delays in two new fields in South Louisiana are primary reasons PVA now expects full-year production between 23.5 and 24.5 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe), which is lower than previously provided guidance of 24.0 to 26.0 Bcfe;
- PVA expects a year-end 2003 production rate of approximately 70 million cubic feet equivalent (Mmcfe) per day, an increase of 32 percent over 53 Mmcfe per day at year-end 2002;
Drilling Results:
- Drilled 56 wells (42.0 net) in the third quarter, 54 of which were successful. Through the first nine months of 2003, the Company drilled 140 wells with 136 successes, compared to 74 wells with 71 successes during the first nine months of 2002;
- Drilled two exploration successes in South Louisiana, giving the Company five drilling successes in as many attempts in that region during 2003;
Hedging:
- Natural gas price hedge positions were extended through April 2005.
Third quarter 2003 oil and gas production was 6.0 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe) or 65.5 million cubic feet equivalent (MMcfe) per day, an increase of eight percent from 5.6 Bcfe or 60.4 MMcfe per day produced in the same quarter of 2002, and up slightly from 5.8 Bcfe produced in the second quarter of 2003. Oil and gas segment operating income for the third quarter of 2003 was $9.1 million compared to $2.8 million for the same quarter of 2002. The increased operating income was primarily due to significantly higher commodity prices and increased production, offset in part by higher lease operating, exploration, taxes other than income and depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expenses. Approximately 78 percent of the Company's third quarter 2003 production was from natural gas, for which realized prices increased 54 percent to $4.93 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) from $3.20 per Mcf for the same quarter of 2002. The average oil and condensate price realized in the third quarter of 2003 increased nine percent to $24.87 per barrel compared to $22.91 per barrel in the third quarter of 2002.
Capital program expenditures for the third quarter of 2003 totaled $28.2 million, consisting of $19.7 million for development drilling, $4.2 million for exploration drilling, $3.1 million for lease acquisitions and field projects and $1.2 million for seismic and other. See the 2003 Guidance Table included in this release for updated 2003 capital expenditures guidance.
Coal Royalty and Land Management Segment Review (Penn Virginia Resource Partners, L.P. - NYSE: PVR)
PVR reported operating income for the third quarter of 2003 of $6.4 million on revenues of $12.8 million, compared to $7.0 million of operating income on revenues of $10.4 million for the same quarter in 2002. Coal production of 6.2 million tons in the third quarter of 2003 significantly increased from 3.7 million tons in the same period of 2002, due primarily to coal reserve acquisitions made during the second half of 2002 and PVR's West Coal River property (previously referred to as Fork Creek) returning to production. Coal royalty revenues for the third quarter of 2003 increased to $12.0 million from $8.3 million reported in the same quarter of 2002. Timber revenue decreased to $0.1 million in 2003's third quarter from $0.4 million in the same quarter of 2002 due to lower cutting levels, and other revenue decreased to $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2003 from $1.8 million in the same quarter of 2002, reflecting less forfeitures of minimum rental payments. Non-cash DD&A expense increased to $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $1.0 million for the same period of 2002, due primarily to the increased coal production and higher cost basis as a result of acquisitions. Increased operating expense was the result of increased production on PVR's subleased property, offset in part by lower maintenance expense at the West Coal River property. Taxes other than income and general and administrative expense increased primarily due to the 2002 acquisitions. In May 2003, PVR announced that it had obtained a new lessee for the idled West Coal River property in West Virginia. The new lessee began selling coal from the property on July 30, 2003, and royalties paid to PVR from these sales are expected to increase gradually through 2004 as production increases. PVR's construction of a new coal loadout facility on its Coal River property in West Virginia also continued during the third quarter of 2003. The loadout facility is designed for the high-speed loading of 150-car unit trains and is expected to begin operations in December 2003. Royalty income, processing and related fees from these activities have been included in the 2003 Guidance table enclosed.
Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2003, Penn Virginia had borrowed $58.0 million against its $150.0 million credit facility. PVR had outstanding borrowings of $92.2 million as of September 30, 2003, including $2.5 million borrowed against its revolving credit facility. The remaining $89.7 million of debt as of September 30, 2003 consisted of 10-year, 5.77 percent fixed rate senior notes PVR issued in late March 2003. An interest rate swap converted approximately one third of the face amount of the senior notes to a floating interest rate based on the six month London Interbank Offering Rate plus 2.36 percent, for a current rate of 3.60 percent.
Management Comment
Commenting on the third quarter of 2003 and future activities at Penn Virginia, A. James Dearlove, Penn Virginia President and Chief Executive Officer, said "As evidenced by our net income and cash flow, the oil and gas segment continued to benefit from strong commodity prices and increasing production during the third quarter. Operationally, we continued our successful exploratory drilling program in the third quarter, including two discoveries in as many attempts in South Louisiana, and we continue to improve our ability to generate prospects internally. We were disappointed by an unsuccessful development well in South Texas and by delays in establishing first production in our South Louisiana discoveries, causing us to revise our full-year 2003 production guidance downward. However, we expect a year over year production increase of approximately 15 percent, with production of approximately 70 Mmcfe per day as we exit 2003, compared to 53 Mmcfe per day at year-end 2002. We remain committed to successfully executing our 2003 capital expenditures program, currently estimated to be approximately $135 million, which should result in the Company drilling approximately 180 gross wells during 2003. Our financial position remains strong, due to a growing cash flow stream and $92 million available under our credit facility.
"PVR's third quarter results reflect a strengthening of its lessees' operational performance along with an improvement in the coal markets in general. The re-establishment of production at PVR's West Coal River property is expected to provide further cash flow supporting its unit holder distributions. The Partnership expects revenues from its fee-based coal infrastructure projects, such as the West Coal River processing plant and loadout facilities and the Coal River loadout facility to provide increasing distributable cash flow in 2003's fourth quarter and into 2004. PVR continues to look for cash flow-accretive acquisition opportunities in both coal and other natural resource sectors."

Reconciliation of GAAP "Net cash provided by operating activities" | ||||||||||

Operating cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities before changes in assets and liabilities. Operating cash flow is presented because management believes it is a useful adjunct to net cash provided by operating activities under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Management believes that operating cash flow is widely accepted as a financial indicator of an oil and gas company's ability to generate cash which is used to internally fund exploration and development activities, service debt and pay dividends. This measure is widely used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies within the oil and gas exploration and production industry. Operating 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, or as a measure of liqu idity, or as an alternative to net income. | ||||||||||
