PENN VIRGINIA CORPORATION
ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2009 RESULTS
RADNOR, PA (BusinessWire) May 6, 2009 –Penn Virginia Corporation (NYSE: PVA) today reported financial and operational results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and provided an update of full-year 2009 guidance.
First Quarter 2009 Highlights
First quarter 2009 results, with comparisons to first quarter 2008 results, included the following:
• | Quarterly record oil and gas production of 152.3 million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (MMcfe) per day, or 13.7 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (Bcfe), a 32 percent increase as compared to 115.6 MMcfe per day, or 10.5 Bcfe; |
• | Operating cash flow, a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) measure, of $73.4 million as compared to $84.6 million; |
• | Net loss of $7.2 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $3.2 million, or $0.07 per diluted share; and |
• | Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure which excludes the effects of the non-cash change in derivatives fair value, drilling rig standby charges and impairments that affect comparability to the prior year period, of $2.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, as compared to adjusted net income of $19.9 million, or $0.48 per diluted share. |
Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP-based measures appear in the financial tables later in this release.
In the first quarter of 2009, our operating loss was $7.4 million, which was $67.6 million lower than the $60.1 million of operating income in the first quarter of 2008. This decrease was comprised of a $59.0 million decrease in oil and gas segment operating income and a $16.7 million decrease in natural gas midstream segment (PVR Midstream) operating income, offset in part by a $7.4 million increase in operating income from the coal and natural resource management segment (PVR Coal & Natural Resource Management) and a $0.7 million decrease in corporate general and administrative (G&A) expenses.
The $11.2 million decrease in operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower operating income (before depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A), rig standby and impairment expenses), higher interest expense and lower other income. These decreases in operating cash flow were partially offset by an increase in cash received to settle derivatives.
The $10.4 million decrease in net income in the first quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower operating income, higher interest expense and lower other income. These decreases to net income were partially offset by a $36.2 million increase in derivatives income,
resulting mainly from changes in the valuation of unrealized derivative positions, lower net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and lower income tax expense.
The $17.3 million decrease in adjusted net income in the first quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to the decrease in net income, adjustments to exclude the effects of the non-cash changes in the valuation of unrealized derivatives positions, partially offset by the increase in cash received to settle derivatives and adjustments to exclude the effects of rig standby charges and impairments.
Management Comment
A. James Dearlove, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Like many companies in our industry, we have been adversely impacted by the declines in commodity prices and hampered by the turmoil in the financial markets. In spite of these difficult conditions, we are pleased with our performance during the first quarter of 2009. The 32 percent year-over-year growth in oil and gas daily production, and six percent sequential growth, to a new quarterly record together with improving operating and capital cost control are a testimony to the quality of our plays, our people and the experience that we have in our oil and gas segment. In addition, this strong start to 2009 provides the basis for keeping our 2009 production guidance unchanged even as we defer drilling in response to very weak natural gas prices.
“Given the extreme weakness in natural gas prices and poor economic and financial market conditions, we believe it is prudent to maintain a cautious approach to capital spending plans in 2009. As such, we have reduced our full-year 2009 guidance for capital expenditures, excluding rig standby charges, to a range of $130 to $140 million, down $80 million from previous guidance. This capital expenditures plan, which has only $44 to $54 million left to be spent during the final three quarters of the year, is expected to be funded almost entirely by operating cash flows and cash distributions we expect to receive from our investment in Penn Virginia GP Holdings (NYSE: PVG). In spite of the cuts in capital spending, we anticipate year-over-year production growth of two to seven percent in 2009.
“First quarter production growth came from a number of our core plays, led by the Mid-Continent region’s Granite Wash, the East Texas Lower Bossier (Haynesville) Shale, Mississippi’s Selma Chalk and exploration success in the Gulf Coast. While we expect year-over-year production growth in 2009 to be muted, due mainly to the deferral of drilling, we believe we have an ample inventory of drilling locations for growth from existing plays as well as new plays which we expect to explore in coming years.
“PVR Coal & Natural Resource Management continues to provide strong contributions to cash flows, as this segment delivered a solid performance in the first quarter of 2009, with 15 percent higher lessee coal production and 12 percent higher average coal royalties per ton than the prior year quarter. During the first quarter, PVR Midstream recorded throughput volumes 87 percent higher than the prior year quarter and eight percent higher relative to the fourth quarter of 2008. However, the increase in system throughput volumes in the quarter was more than offset by the impact of the dramatic slowdown in the economy, which has reduced the demand for natural gas liquids (NGLs) and has hurt profit margins in the business segment. In the first quarter of 2009, our midstream margins were supported by our hedging program.
“For Penn Virginia Resource Partners, L.P. (NYSE: PVR), which has a capital structure independent of Penn Virginia Corporation, access to capital is critical to continued growth of its coal and midstream business segments. We are pleased, therefore, that during the first quarter PVR was able to increase its revolving credit facility by $100 million and had over $200 million of availability at the end of the first quarter to support working capital needs and some modest growth opportunities.”
Oil and Gas Segment Review
First quarter oil and gas production grew 32 percent to a record 152.3 MMcfe per day, or 13.7 Bcfe, from 115.6 MMcfe per day, or 10.5 Bcfe, in the first quarter of 2008, and was six percent higher than
the previous quarterly record of 143.8 MMcfe per day, or 13.2 Bcfe in the fourth quarter of 2008. See our separate operational update news release dated May 1, 2009 for a more detailed discussion of first quarter 2009 drilling and production operations for the oil and gas segment.
During the first quarter of 2009, oil and gas segment operating income decreased by $59.0 million as compared to the prior year quarter to an operating loss of $22.7 million, including $9.9 million of drilling rig standby charges and $1.2 million of impairment charges. The decrease was due to a $27.7 million, or 30 percent, decrease in revenues and a $31.3 million, or 56 percent, increase in total operating expenses. The decrease in revenues was due to sharp declines in realized commodity prices – a 46 percent decrease in the natural gas price and a 62 percent decrease in the oil price – offset in part by a 32 percent increase in oil and gas production. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to the production increase, $9.9 million of rig standby charges, $6.2 million of increased amortization of unproved properties included in exploration expense, a $13.3 million increase in DD&A expense and $1.2 million of impairments, offset in part by a $1.0 million decrease in taxes other than income as a result of the decrease in commodity prices. Excluding the rig standby and impairment charges discussed below, the segment operating loss was $11.6 million, a decrease of $47.9 million from $36.4 million of operating income in the prior year quarter.
In the first quarter of 2009, total oil and gas segment expenses, excluding the rig standby and impairment charges, increased by $20.2 million, or 36 percent, to $76.2 million, or $5.56 per Mcfe produced, from $55.9 million, or $5.32 per Mcfe produced, in the first quarter of 2008, as discussed below:
• | First quarter 2009 cash operating expenses of $24.7 million, or $1.80 per Mcfe produced, were flat from the $24.7 million, or $2.34 per Mcfe produced, in the first quarter of 2008. The decrease in unit cash operating expenses was primarily due to lower taxes other than income and lower lease operating expense, as discussed below: |
• | Lease operating expense decreased to $1.08 per Mcfe from $1.35 per Mcfe primarily due to decreased overall service costs due to sharply lower commodity prices and reduced water disposal and other costs as compared to the prior year quarter; |
• | Taxes other than income decreased to $0.35 per Mcfe from $0.56 per Mcfe primarily due to decreased severance taxes related to sharply lower commodity prices; and |
• | Segment G&A expense decreased to $0.37 per Mcfe as compared to $0.44 per Mcfe. |
• | Exploration expense, excluding drilling rig standby charges discussed below, increased to $11.4 million in the first quarter of 2009, as compared to $4.7 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to $6.2 million of increased amortization of unproved properties related to higher leasehold acquisition costs in our East Texas, Mid-Continent and Gulf Coast regions. |
• | DD&A expense increased by $13.4 million, or 50 percent, to $40.0 million, or $2.92 per Mcfe, in the first quarter of 2009 from $26.6 million, or $2.53 per Mcfe, in the prior year quarter. The overall increase in DD&A expense was primarily due to the production increase, as well as the higher depletion rate per unit of production a result of higher drilling costs and leasehold acquisitions. |
In the first quarter of 2009, we opted to defer the drilling of wells in several of our plays due to unfavorable economic conditions. As a result, we amended certain drilling rig contracts to delay commencement of drilling until January 2010. In the first quarter of 2009, we expensed approximately $9.9 million for lump sum delay fees, minimum daily standby fees and demobilization fees expected to be paid during the standby period. We will continue to evaluate economic conditions through the remainder of 2009 to determine whether to continue to defer drilling. This decision could result in additional standby expense of up to approximately $14.8 million during 2009.
In addition, during the first quarter of 2009, we incurred approximately $1.2 million of impairments. These charges were primarily related to market declines in the spot and future oil and gas prices.
Coal & Natural Resource Management and
Natural Gas Midstream Segment Review (PVR and PVG)
Operating income for PVR Coal & Natural Resource Management increased by $7.4 million, or 42 percent, to $25.0 million in the first quarter of 2009. This increase was primarily due to a 15 percent increase in lessee coal production and a 12 percent increase in average coal royalties per ton, offset in part by a four percent increase in operating expenses. Operating income for PVR Midstream decreased by $16.7 million to an operating loss of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2009. This decrease was primarily due to a 34 percent decrease in midstream gross margin and a 59 percent increase in operating expenses, offset in part by an 87 percent increase in system throughput volumes. Adjusted for the cash impact of derivatives, PVR Midstream’s midstream gross margin increased 21 percent from $16.9 million in the first quarter of 2008 to $20.6 million in the first quarter of 2009.
Financial and operational results and full-year 2009 guidance for each of these segments are provided in the financial tables later in this release. In addition, operational updates for these segments are discussed in more detail in PVR’s news release dated May 6, 2009. Please visit PVR’s website,www.pvresource.com, under “For Investors” for a copy of the release.
As previously announced, on May 20, 2009, PVG will pay to unitholders of record as of May 4, 2009 a quarterly cash distribution of $0.38 per unit, or an annualized rate of $1.52 per unit, covering the period of January 1 through March 31, 2009. On an annualized basis, this represents a 12 percent increase over the annualized distribution of $1.36 per unit with respect to the same quarter of 2008 and is unchanged from the distribution paid with respect to the third and fourth quarters of 2008. As a result of PVG’s distribution, we will receive a cash distribution of approximately $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2009, which would be approximately $45.7 million on an annualized basis.
PVG owns PVR’s general partner, including the incentive distribution rights, and is PVR’s largest limited partner unitholder. PVG derives its cash flow solely from cash distributions received from PVR. As the owner of the general partner and largest unitholder of PVG, we report our financial results on a consolidated basis with the financial results of PVG.
A conversion of the GAAP-compliant financial statements (“As reported”) to the equity method of accounting (“As adjusted”) is included in the “Conversion to Non-GAAP Equity Method” table in this release. Using the equity method, PVG’s results are reduced to a few line items and the results from oil and gas operations and corporate are therefore highlighted. We believe that this is useful since the oil and gas and corporate segments provide a majority of our cash flow from operations as compared to distributions we receive from PVG. We believe that the financial statements presented using the equity method are less complex and more comparable to those of other oil and gas exploration and production companies.
Capital Resources and Impact of Derivatives
As of March 31, 2009, we had outstanding borrowings of $620.0 million, including $230.0 million ($201.5 million carrying value) of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2012 and $390.0 million of borrowings under our $450.0 million revolving credit facility. The $58.0 million increase in outstanding borrowings as compared to the $562.0 million at December 31, 2008 was primarily due to higher spending to fund our oil and gas capital expenditures during the first quarter.
As of March 31, 2009, PVR had outstanding borrowings of $595.1 million under its $800 million revolving credit facility with remaining revolver borrowing capacity of $203.3 million. The $27.0 million increase in outstanding PVR borrowings as compared to $568.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2008 was primarily due to PVR capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2009.
Consolidated interest expense increased from $10.7 million in the first quarter of 2008 to $12.5 million in the first quarter of 2009. The increase was due to higher average level of outstanding borrowings during the first quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior year quarter.
Due to decreases in natural gas and crude oil prices experienced during the first quarter, the mark-to-market valuation of our and PVR’s open hedging positions resulted in derivatives income of $10.3 million in the first quarter of 2009, as compared to derivatives expense of $25.9 million in the prior year quarter. Included in derivatives income for the first quarter of 2009 was $17.4 million of income related to our oil and gas segment and $7.2 million of expense related to PVR. Cash settlements of derivatives included in these amounts resulted in net cash receipts of $19.1 million during the first quarter of 2009, as compared to $9.0 million of net cash payments in the first quarter of 2008. Included in the cash settlement of derivatives for the first quarter of 2008 was $16.3 million of net cash receipts related to our oil and gas segment and $2.8 million of net cash receipts related to PVR’s commodity and interest rate derivatives.

(a) – Operating cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities. We believe that operating cash flow is widely accepted as a financial indicator of an energy company’s ability to generate cash which is used to internally fund investing activities, service debt and pay dividends. Operating cash flow is widely used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies within the energy industry. Operating cash flow is presented because we believe it is a useful adjunct to net cash provided by operating activities under GAAP. 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, as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income.
(b) – The impact of these adjustments on our income tax expense (benefit) reflects our effective tax rate of 38.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.
(c) – Net income attributable to PVA as adjusted represents net income attributable to PVA adjusted to exclude the effects of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, the effects of drilling rig standby charges, the effects of impairments and the effect of PVR’s net income allocated to PVR units that we own and have awarded under PVR’s long-term incentive compensation plan. We believe this presentation is commonly 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, as well as companies within the natural gas midstream industry. We use this information for comparative purposes within these industries. Net income attributable to PVA 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 attributable to PVA.

We estimate that, excluding the derivative positions described above, for every $1.00 per MMBtu increase or decrease in the natural gas price, oil and gas segment operating income for the remainder of 2009 would increase or decrease by approximately $28.6 million. In addition, we estimate that for every $5.00 per barrel increase or decrease in the crude oil price, oil and gas segment operating income for the remainder of 2009 would increase or decrease by approximately $4.4 million. This assumes that other variables (e.g., 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 that we 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. |

(b) | The costless collar natural gas prices per MMBtu per quarter include the effects of basis differentials, if any. The following table shows current derivative positions for natural gas production in PVR’s natural gas midstream segment as of March 31, 2009: |

We estimate that, excluding the derivative positions described above, for every $1.00 per 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 $3.7 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 $3.8 million. This assumes that other variables (e.g., 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) – PVR’s frac spread is the spread between the purchase price for the natural gas PVR purchases from producers and the sale price for the NGLs that PVR sells after processing. PVR hedges against the variability in its 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
(c) | We capitalize a portion of interest expense incurred to recognize the carrying cost of certain unproved properties as required by GAAP. |
(d) | We control the general partner of PVG and own a 77 percent limited partner interest in PVG. PVG’s operating results are included in our consolidated financial statements and noncontrolling interests reflect the 23 percent of PVG owned by parties other than us. |
(e) | Our federal and state statutory income tax rates, net of federal income tax benefit, approximate 39%. Deferred federal and state income taxes for the remainder of 2009 are expected to comprise approximately 65% to 75% of our income tax expense or benefit for the full year. |
(f) | Amounts received are dependent primarily upon distributions paid by PVG. |
