Callon Petroleum Company Announces First Quarter 2015 Results and Increases Annual Production Guidance
NATCHEZ, Miss., May 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Callon Petroleum Company (NYSE: CPE) ("Callon" or the "Company") today reported results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2015. Presentation slides accompanying this earnings release are available on the Company's website at www.callon.com located within the Investors (Events and Presentations) section of the site.
The Company highlighted financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2015:
- Net daily production of 8,567 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("BOE/d"), an increase of 18% over the fourth quarter of 2014, comprised of 83% oil volume
- Lease operating costs, including workovers, of $9.03 per barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE"), a decrease of 20% compared to the fourth quarter of 2014
- Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure(i), of $26.7 million
- Adjusted income available to common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure(i), of $0.00 per diluted share based on total average diluted shares outstanding of 57.5 million shares
- Financial flexibility enhanced by the completion of a common equity offering for $65.6 million in net proceeds and reaffirmation of the $250 million borrowing base under its credit facility
"We are pleased to report another quarter of record Permian production at over 8,500 barrels of oil per day, up nearly 20% over last quarter, thanks to a variety of operational successes including placing nine new horizontal wells on production," commented Fred Callon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to enjoy strong well performance from multiple producing zones, including recent Lower Spraberry wells in Midland County, and Wolfcamp B wells in the Southern Midland Basin at our well-established East Bloxom development and steadily improving Garrison Draw field. In addition, our drilling program continues to benefit from incremental capital cost reductions which put us on a path to realize a 30% decrease in total completed well costs in the second half of 2015 compared to 2014 levels. As we progress into 2015 and beyond, we plan to overlay this competitive cost structure on an operating plan that will include the shifting of capital to the Lower Spraberry zone, enhancing our capital efficiency and production growth potential."

Total Revenue. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, Callon reported total revenues of $30.4 million, excluding the $10.3 million impact of settled derivative contracts, comprised of oil revenues of $27.9 million and natural gas revenues of $2.5 million. Average daily production for the quarter was 8,567 BOE/d compared to average daily production of 7,270 BOE/d in the fourth quarter of 2014. Average realized prices, including and excluding the effects of hedging, are detailed below.
Hedging impacts. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, Callon recognized the following hedging-related items:

Impact of cash-settled derivatives | 13.41 | ||
Total (per BOE) (including impact of cash-settled derivatives) | $ | 52.83 |
Lease Operating Expenses, including workover expense ("LOE"). LOE for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $9.03 per BOE, compared to LOE of $11.23 per BOE in the fourth quarter of 2014. Higher production volumes and lower workover expenses contributed to the 20% per BOE decrease in the first quarter.
Production Taxes, including ad valorem taxes. Production taxes were $2.94 per BOE in the first quarter of 2015, representing approximately 7.5% of total revenue before the impact of derivative settlements. While severance taxes correlate directly with commodity prices, ad valorem taxes are linked to underlying assessed property values, which are based on historical prices and which have increased with the additional horizontal wells placed onto production in our Garrison Draw, East Bloxom and Carpe Diem fields. Consequently, adjustments to this tax rate lag changes in commodity prices. As property values are adjusted downward over time in a lower commodity price environment, we expect this component to trend down.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization ("DD&A"). DD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $23.48 per BOE compared to $27.05 per BOE in the fourth quarter of 2014, with the decrease in per unit DD&A being attributable to our increase in proved reserves relative to our depreciable asset base and reductions in assumed future development costs.
General and Administrative, net of amounts capitalized ("G&A"). G&A excluding certain non-recurring items and non-cash incentive share-based compensation valuation adjustments ("Adjusted G&A", a non-GAAP measure(i)) was $4.7 million, or $6.15 per BOE, for the current period compared to $3.9 million, or $5.89 per BOE, for the fourth quarter of 2014. The cash component of Adjusted G&A, which excludes the amortization of equity-settled share-based incentive awards and corporate depreciation and amortization, was $4.1 million, or $5.37 per BOE, compared to $2.9 million or $4.35 per BOE for the fourth quarter of 2014. G&A and Adjusted G&A for the first quarter of 2015 are calculated as follows:

The Company recorded a one-time expense related to the early retirement of approximately 20% of its employee base with the reductions occurring in the Natchez and Houston offices. The Company expects the initiative will reduce future Adjusted G&A (including expensed and capitalized amounts) by approximately $5 million per year, starting in the second quarter of 2015.
Income (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders. The Company reported a net loss available to common shareholders of $12.2 million in the first quarter of 2015 and Adjusted income available to common shareholders ("Adjusted Income"), a non-GAAP measure(i), of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share.

The Company has updated its operational capital guidance, on an accrual basis, that was established at $150 million to $165 million earlier this year. The update guidance of $160 million to $165 million reflects a higher than expected pace of drilling and completion due to operational efficiencies, combined with additional capital that has been budgeted to fund anticipated non-consenting working interest partners during the year. These increases are offset by higher than anticipated capital cost reductions realized to date. The revised operational guidance does not include any further assumed well costs reductions above those received to date. Callon currently anticipates drilling 26.9 net horizontal wells in 2015, an increase of approximately three net wells over previous estimates. As part of the new operational plan, the Company also plans to reallocate a portion of capital to drill an increased proportion of Lower Spraberry horizontal wells, targeting the drilling of 9.1 net wells during the year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations
This news release refers to non-GAAP financial measures as "discretionary cash flow," "Adjusted Income," "Adjusted G&A" and "Adjusted EBITDA." These measures, detailed below, 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.
- Callon believes that the non-GAAP measure of discretionary cash flow is useful as an indicator of an oil and gas exploration and production company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt. The Company also has included this information because changes in operating assets and liabilities relate to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements which the company may not control and may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred. Discretionary cash flow and discretionary cash flow per diluted share are calculated using net income (loss) adjusted for certain items including depreciation, depletion and amortization, the impact of financial derivatives (including the mark-to-market effects, net of cash settlements and premiums paid or received related to our financial derivatives), remaining asset retirement obligations related to our divested offshore properties, restructuring and other non-recurring costs, deferred income taxes and other non-cash income items.
- Callon believes that the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted G&A is useful to investors because it provides readers with a meaningful measure of our recurring G&A expense and provides for greater comparability period-over-period. The table below details all adjustments to G&A on a GAAP basis to arrive at Adjusted G&A.
- We believe that the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted income available to common shareholders ("Adjusted Income") and Adjusted Income per diluted share are useful to investors because they provide readers with a meaningful measure of our profitability before recording certain items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably determined. These measures exclude the net of tax effects of certain non-recurring items and non-cash valuation adjustments, which are detailed in the reconciliation provided below. Prior to being tax-effected and excluded, the amounts reflected in the determination of Adjusted Income and Adjusted Income per diluted share below were computed in accordance with GAAP.
- We calculate Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") as Adjusted income plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, it should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flow provided by operating activities or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. However, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information with respect to our performance or ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Because Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income (loss) and may vary among companies, the Adjusted EBITDA we present may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
