Goodrich Petroleum Announces Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results and an Operational Update

HOUSTON, Aug. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (NYSE American: GDP) (the "Company") today announced financial results and an operational update for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

  • Adjusted EBITDA increased by 142% over the prior year period and 42% sequentially to $21.5 million despite lower natural gas prices versus the prior year and first quarter of 2019.
  • Net income was $11.8 million in the quarter ($0.96 per basic and $0.82 per diluted share). Net income was positively impacted by a gain of $10.7 million, representing the change of fair value of the Company's derivative contracts, and negatively impacted by a loss of $1.8 million on early extinguishment of debt.
  • Production increased by 128% over the prior year period and 35% sequentially to average 138,200 Mcfe per day for the quarter.
  • Per unit cash operating expenses decreased by 35% versus the prior year period and 23% sequentially to $1.02 per Mcfe for the quarter, as follows.
    • Lease operating expense ("LOE") decreased by 33% sequentially to $0.24 per Mcfe
    • Production and other taxes expense decreased by 29% sequentially to $0.05 per Mcfe
    • Transportation and processing expense decreased by 8% sequentially to $0.46 per Mcfe
    • General and Administrative ("G&A") expense (payable in cash) decreased by 33% to $0.27 per Mcfe  
  • Return on Capital Employed ("ROCE"), defined as annualized second quarter earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") divided by total assets less current liabilities, was 18% for the quarter.

(See accompanying table at the end of this press release that reconciles ROCE, a non-US GAAP financial measure, to its most directly comparable US GAAP financial measure.)

OPERATIONAL UPDATE

The Company has recently completed its Melody Jones et al 20H No. 1 (89% WI) well in the Bethany-Longstreet field of DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. The well, which has a lateral length of approximately 4,600 feet, had an average 24-hour initial production rate of approximately 22,000 Mcfe per day. The Company is running one rig with current plans to complete its next well late in the third quarter.

BALANCE SHEET

The Company exited the quarter with $1.7 million of cash, $84.4 million outstanding under the Company's senior credit facility, which had a borrowing base of $115 million, and $12.1 million outstanding under the Company's second lien notes.

OTHER INFORMATION

In this press release, the Company refers to several non-US GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA and DCF. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are good financial indicators of the Company's performance and ability to internally generate operating funds. DCF should not be considered an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities, as defined by US GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net loss applicable to common stock, as defined by US GAAP. Management believes that all of these non-US GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they are monitored and used by Company management and widely used by professional research analysts in the valuation and investment recommendations of companies within the oil and gas exploration and production industry.

Initial production rates are subject to decline over time and should not be regarded as reflective of sustained production levels. In particular, production from horizontal drilling in shale oil and natural gas resource plays and tight natural gas plays that are stimulated with extensive pressure fracturing are typically characterized by significant early declines in production rates.

Unless otherwise stated, oil production volumes include condensate.

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, such as financial market conditions, changes in commodities prices and costs of drilling and completion, 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 for the year ended December 31, 2018 and other subsequent 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.

Goodrich Petroleum is an independent oil and natural gas exploration and production company listed on the NYSE American under the symbol "GDP".

(1) Discretionary cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities. Management believes that the non-US GAAP measure of discretionary cash flow is useful as an indicator of an oil and natural gas exploration and production company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt. The company has also 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. Operating cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities prepared in accordance with US GAAP. 











(2) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income and similar taxes, DD&A, share based compensation expense and impairment of oil and natural gas properties. In calculating adjusted EBITDA, reorganization gains/losses and gains/losses on commodity derivatives not designated as hedges net of cash received or paid in settlement of derivative instruments are also excluded. Other excluded items include interest income and other, adjustments per our 2019 Senior Credit Facility agreement for operating leases under ASC 842 and any other extraordinary non-cash gains/losses.











(3) Fully diluted shares excludes approximately 4.0 million potentially dilutive instruments that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and approximately 3.9 million potentially dilutive instruments that were anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
