NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Burlington Resources Inc. (the
Company") includes certain definitions and a summary of significant
accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. The statements for the periods presented herein are
unaudited, condensed and do not contain all information required by
generally accepted accounting principles to be included in a full set of
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all material
adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations have
been included. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.
Earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number
of common shares outstanding was 127 million and 131 million for the
first three months of 1995 and 1994, respectively.
2. RECLASSIFICATION
The Company's 1995 revenues include amounts from the sale of NGLs, less
the actual costs incurred to gather, treat, process and transport the
hydrocarbons to market. To conform to current presentation, the Company
reclassified approximately $45 million of costs and expenses to revenues
for the first three months of 1994. The reclassification had no effect
on operating income.
- 5 -
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The total long-term debt to capital (total long-term debt and stockholders'
equity) ratio at March 31, 1995, and December 31, 1994, was 35 percent and 34
percent, respectively. In March 1995, the Company issued $150 million of 8.20%
Debentures due March 15, 2025. The net proceeds were used for general
corporate purposes, including acquisition of oil and gas properties, repayment
of commercial paper, capital expenditures and repurchases of the Company's
common stock.
The Company's credit facilities are comprised of a $600 million revolving
credit agreement that expires in July 1999 and a $300 million revolving credit
agreement that expires July 1995, but is renewable annually by mutual consent.
As of March 31, 1995, there were no borrowings outstanding under the credit
facilities although borrowing capacity is reduced by outstanding commercial
paper. At March 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding commercial paper
borrowings of $153 million at an average interest rate of 6.30 percent. The
Company also has the capacity to issue $350 million of debt securities under
shelf registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first three months of 1995
was $101 million compared to $145 million for the first three months of 1994.
The decrease was primarily due to lower operating income.
The Company continued the divestiture of marginal and non-strategic properties
that began in June 1994. During the first quarter of 1995, the Company
divested 1,046 working interest wells for approximately $18 million. In
February 1995, the Company completed the sale of its intrastate natural gas
pipeline systems and its underground natural gas storage facility, including
gas-in-storage inventory, for approximately $80 million.
The Company is involved in certain environmental proceedings and other related
matters. Although it is possible that new information or future developments
could require the Company to reassess its potential exposure related to these
matters, the Company believes, based upon available information, the resolution
of these issues, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a materially
adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations
of the Company.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures for the first three months of 1995 totaled $141 million
compared to $126 million for the same period in 1994. Capital expenditures are
currently projected to be approximately $580 million for all of 1995 and are
expected to be primarily for the development and exploration of oil and gas
properties and reserve acquisitions. Capital expenditures will be funded from
internal cash flow supplemented, as needed, by external financing.
- 6 -
Dividends
On April 6, 1995, the Board of Directors declared a common stock quarterly
dividend of $0.1375 per share, payable July 3, 1995.
Results of Operations - First Quarter 1995 Compared to First Quarter 1994
The Company reported a net loss of $5 million or $.04 per share for the first
quarter of 1995 compared to net income of $48 million or $.37 per share in
1994. Operating income for the first quarter of 1995 was $2 million compared
to $69 million in 1994.
Revenues were $215 million for the first quarter of 1995 compared to $275
million in 1994. Natural gas sales volumes improved 15 percent to 1,145 MMCF
per day which increased revenues $26 million. Average oil sales prices
improved 18 percent to $16.43 per barrel and oil sales volumes improved 11
percent to 47.0 MBbls per day which increased revenues $11 million and $6
million, respectively. Gas and oil sales volumes increased primarily due to
continued development of the Company's oil and gas properties and producing
property acquisitions. The revenue increases were more than offset by a 37
percent decline in 1995 average natural gas sales prices to $1.23 per MCF which
decreased revenues $76 million. Additionally, due to the sale of the
intrastate pipeline systems in February 1995, intrastate natural gas sales
declined $23 million.
Costs and expenses were $213 million for the first quarter of 1995 compared to
$206 million in 1994. The increase was primarily due to a 14 percent
improvement in 1995 production levels which increased production and processing
related expenses $23 million and a $5 million increase in administrative
expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $20 million decrease in
intrastate natural gas purchases primarily due to the sale of the intrastate
pipeline systems in February 1995.
Interest expense was $26 million for the first quarter of 1995 compared to $18
million in 1994. The increase was primarily due to additional debt issued in
May 1994 and higher outstanding commercial paper balances during the first
quarter of 1995.
The effective income tax rate was a benefit of 80 percent for the first quarter
of 1995 compared to an expense of 2 percent for the first quarter of 1994. The
1995 beneficial tax rate is due to a 1995 pre-tax loss plus the effect of non-
conventional fuel tax credits. The 1994 tax expense reflects the tax on lower
1994 pre-tax income relative to non-conventional fuel tax credits.
Other Matters
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed Of, which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.
- 7 -
Other Matters - Continued
SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets to be held and used by an entity
be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes indicate that the
carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would
be recognized if the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and
without interest charges) from the use of the asset is less than the carrying
amount of the asset. SFAS No. 121 also requires that long-lived assets to be
disposed of be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less the
cost to sell. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, SFAS
No. 121 will have on its financial position or results of operations.
