CLAYTON WILLIAMS ENERGY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER2015

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Midland, Texas, August 4, 2015 (BUSINESS WIRE) - Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE-CWEI) today reported its financial results for the second quarter 2015.

Summary

• Core drilling suspended in early 2015; resumed at a two-rig pace in July 2015

• Oil and gas production of 16.6 MBOE/d

• Adjusted net loss¹ (non-GAAP) of $12.8 million

• EBITDAX² (non-GAAP) of $37 million

Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2015

The Company reported a net loss for the second quarter of 2015 (“2Q15”) of $23.3 million, or $1.92 per share, as compared to net income of $9.3 million, or $0.77 per share, for the second quarter of 2014 (“2Q14”). Adjusted net loss¹ (non-GAAP) for 2Q15 was $12.8 million, or $1.05 per share, as compared to adjusted net income¹ (non-GAAP) of $18.2 million, or $1.50 per share, for 2Q14. Cash flow from operations for 2Q15 was $9 million as compared to $45.8 million for 2Q14. EBITDAX² (non-GAAP) for 2Q15 was $37 million as compared to $81.5 million for 2Q14.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net loss attributable to Company stockholders was $41.6 million, or $3.42 per share, as compared to net income of $20.7 million, or $1.70 per share, for the same period in 2014. Adjusted net loss¹ (non-GAAP) for the six-month period in 2015 was $33.6 million, or $2.76 per share, as compared to adjusted net income¹ (non-GAAP) of $34.7 million, or $2.85 per share, for the same period in 2014. Cash flow from operations for the six-month period in 2015 was $28.6 million as compared to $125.1 million during the same period in 2014. EBITDAX² (non-GAAP) for the six-month period in 2015 was $62.6 million as compared to $158.4 million for the same period in 2014.

The key factors affecting the comparability of financial results for 2Q15 versus 2Q14 were:

• The downturn in commodity prices continues to have a significant impact on our business and results of operations. We suspended drilling operations in our core resource plays early in 2015 until well costs could adjust to a lower commodity price environment. We resumed drilling activities in July 2015 with one rig in the Delaware Basin and one rig in the Eagle Ford.

• Oil and gas sales for 2Q15, excluding amortized deferred revenues, decreased $44.4 million compared to 2Q14. Price variances accounted for a $53.9 million decrease and production variances accounted for a $9.5 million increase. Average realized oil prices were $53.32 per barrel in 2Q15 versus $96.01 per barrel in 2Q14, average realized gas prices were $2.58 per Mcf in 2Q15 versus $4.49 per Mcf in 2Q14, and average realized natural gas liquids (“NGL”) prices were $15.30 per barrel in 2Q15 versus $31.55 per barrel in 2Q14. Oil and

gas sales in 2Q15 also includes $1.7 million of amortized deferred revenue compared to $1.9 million in 2Q14 attributable to a volumetric production payment (“VPP”). Reported production and related average realized sales prices exclude volumes associated with the VPP.

• Oil, gas and NGL production per barrel of oil equivalent (“BOE”) increased 7% in 2Q15 as compared to 2Q14, with oil production increasing 8% to 12,363 barrels per day, gas production increasing 6% to 16,066 Mcf per day, and NGL production decreasing 1% to 1,560 barrels per day. Oil and NGL production accounted for approximately 84% of the Company’s total BOE production in 2Q15 and 2Q14. See accompanying tables for additional information about the Company’s oil and gas production.

• Production costs in 2Q15 were $23.1 million versus $24.6 million in 2Q14 due primarily to lower production taxes associated with a decrease in oil and gas sales. Production costs on a BOE basis, excluding production taxes, decreased 3% to $13.02 per BOE in 2Q15 versus $13.41 per BOE in 2Q14.

• Loss on derivatives for 2Q15 was $12.3 million (including a $1.8 million loss on settled contracts) versus a loss on derivatives in 2Q14 of $8.3 million (including a $3.5 million loss on settled contracts). See accompanying tables for additional information about the Company’s accounting for derivatives.

• General and administrative expenses for 2Q15 were $11.3 million versus $21.4 million for 2Q14. Of the $10.1 million reduction, changes in compensation expense attributable to the Company’s APO reward plans accounted for a net decrease of $7 million ($6.5 million in 2Q15 versus $13.5 million in 2Q14). The remainder was largely attributable to salary and personnel reductions implemented in the first quarter of 2015.

² See “Computation of EBITDAX (non-GAAP)” below for an explanation of how the Company calculates and uses EBITDAX (non-GAAP) and for a reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP) to EBITDAX (non-GAAP).

COMPUTATION OF ADJUSTED NET INCOME (LOSS) (NON-GAAP)

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except per share)

Adjusted net income (loss) is presented as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure because of its wide acceptance by financial analysts, investors, debt holders, banks, rating agencies and other financial statement users as a tool for operating trends analysis and industry comparisons. Adjusted net income (loss) is not an alternative to net income (loss) presented in conformity with GAAP.
The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) before changes in fair value of derivatives, abandonments and impairments of property and equipment, net gain on sales of assets and impairment of inventory, amortization of deferred revenue from volumetric production payment, certain non-cash and unusual items and the impact on taxes of the adjustments for each period presented.
The following table is a reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP) to adjusted net income (loss) (non-GAAP):

CLAYTON WILLIAMS ENERGY, INC. COMPUTATION OF EBITDAX (NON-GAAP) (Unaudited) (In thousands)
EBITDAX is presented as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure because of its wide acceptance by financial analysts, investors, debt holders, banks, rating agencies and other financial statement users as an indication of an entity's ability to meet its debt service obligations and to internally fund its exploration and development activities. EBITDAX is not an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in conformity with GAAP.
The Company defines EBITDAX as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, exploration costs, net gain on sales of assets and impairment of inventory, and all non-cash items in the Company's statements of operations, including depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment of property and equipment, accretion of asset retirement obligations, amortization of deferred revenue from volumetric production payment, certain employee compensation, changes in fair value of derivatives and certain non-cash and unusual items.
The following table reconciles net income (loss) to EBITDAX:

______

(a) Oil and gas sales includes $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of amortized deferred revenue attributable to a volumetric production payment (“VPP”) transaction effective March 1, 2012. The calculation of average realized sales prices excludes production of 22,503 barrels of oil and 14,750 Mcf of gas for the three months ended June 30, 2015, 25,826 barrels of oil and 10,689 Mcf of gas for the three months ended June 30, 2014, 45,654 barrels of oil and 30,837 Mcf of gas for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 52,421 barrels of oil and 22,622 Mcf of gas for the six months ended June 30, 2014 associated with the VPP.

(b) Hedging gains/losses are only included in the determination of the Company's average realized prices if the underlying derivative contracts are designated as cash flow hedges under applicable accounting standards. The Company did not designate any of its 2015 or 2014 derivative contracts as cash flow hedges. This means that the Company's derivatives for 2015 and 2014 have been marked-to-market through its statement of operations as other income/expense instead of through accumulated other comprehensive income on the Company's balance sheet. This also means that all realized gains/losses on these derivatives are reported in other income/expense instead of as a component of oil and gas sales.

(c) Following is a recap of the average daily production related to interests in producing properties sold by the Company effective March 2014.
