HOUSTON, May 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: GDP) today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.
CASH FLOW
Earnings before interest, taxes, DD&A, non-cash general and administrative expenses and exploration ("EBITDAX"), increased by 41% to $33.7 million for the quarter, compared to $24.0 million in the prior year period (see accompanying table for a reconciliation of EBITDAX, a non-GAAP measure, to net cash provided by operating activities). EBITDAX was 13% higher sequentially.
DCF, defined as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in working capital, was $26.8 million for the quarter, compared to $10.2 million in the prior year period. DCF for the first quarter increased by 17% sequentially compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter was $6.5 million.
See “Selected Cash Flow Data” at the end of this release for a reconciliation of EBITDAX and DCF to the comparable GAAP financial measure, net cash provided by operating activities.
NET INCOME
The Company announced a net loss applicable to common stock of $24.7 million for the quarter, or $0.68 per basic share, versus net income applicable to common stock of $2.8 million, or $0.08 per basic share in the prior year period.
PRODUCTION
Net production volumes in the quarter increased by 14% to 9.1 billion cubic feet equivalent ("Bcfe"), or an average of 100,800 Mcfe per day, versus 8.0 Bcfe, or an average of 88,600 Mcfe per day in the prior year period. Average net daily production volumes for the quarter were up 4% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2010, despite the divestiture of 11,700 Mcfe per day of production in the fourth quarter of 2010.
Production for the second quarter of 2011 is expected to average 104,000 – 108,000 Mcfe per day, with oil production expected to comprise approximately 8 – 10% of total volumes, up from approximately 5.3% in the first quarter.
REVENUES
Revenues for the quarter were $41.2 million versus $40.5 million in the prior year period. Revenues, including realized gain on derivatives not designated as hedges of $7.1 million for the quarter, would have been $48.4 million. Average realized price per unit for the quarter, prior to factoring in the Company’s hedges, was $4.51 per Mcfe, versus $5.07 per Mcfe in the prior year period. When factoring in the Company’s hedges, average realized price was $5.30 per Mcfe, versus $5.27 per Mcfe in the prior year period.

Per unit LOE for the quarter decreased by 25% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2010. Lower per unit LOE continued to be driven by the Company’s Haynesville Shale wells, which comprised 66% of Company volumes and averaged $0.18 per Mcfe for the quarter.

DD&A expense for the quarter on a per unit basis increased by 16% sequentially due to the Company capturing production but not DD&A expense from its properties sold in the fourth quarter of 2010.

OTHER INFORMATION
In this press release, the Company refers to two non-GAAP financial measures, EBITDAX and discretionary cash flow. Management believes that each of these measures is a good financial indicator of the Company's ability to internally generate operating funds. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures of cash flow provide useful information to investors because they are widely used by professional research analysts in the valuation and investment recommendations of companies within the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry. Neither discretionary cash flow nor EBITDAX should be considered an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities, as defined by GAAP.
Certain statements in this news release regarding future expectations and plans for future activities may be regarded as "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Securities Litigation Reform Act. They are subject to various risks and uncertainties, such as availability of drilling rigs and completion crews and equipment, financial market conditions, operating hazards, drilling risks, and the inherent uncertainties in interpreting engineering data relating to underground accumulations of oil and gas, as well as other risks discussed in detail in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.
Initial production rates stated in this release are expected to differ substantially from longer term average production rates. Forward looking estimates of production growth assume drilling results comparable to recent prior periods, which may not be realized. The Company is commencing its initial operations in the Eagle Ford Shale and the success of its drilling and completion strategy is subject to more uncertainty relative to areas where the Company has already established drilling and production history.
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation is an independent oil and gas exploration and production company listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Substantially all of its properties are located in Louisiana and Texas.
