Range Announces First Quarter 2016 Results

FORT WORTH, TX--(Marketwired - Apr 28, 2016) - RANGE RESOURCES CORPORATION (NYSE: RRC) today announced its first quarter financial results. 

Highlights -

• Unit costs reduced by 10%, or $0.29 per mcfe compared to prior-year quarter
• Completed and contracted asset sales announced totaling approximately $190 million of proceeds
• Absolute debt levels reduced by $631 million over the last twelve months
• Existing $3 billion bank credit facility borrowing base unanimously reaffirmed by all 29 banks
• Marcellus production up 17% over prior-year quarter
• Well productivity drives production towards high-end of annual guidance
• Range becomes the first North American company to export ethane to Europe
• Peer-leading Marcellus well costs driven by operational improvements
• Recently completed Utica dry gas well appears to be one of the best in the play based on early data

Commenting, Jeff Ventura, the Company's CEO said, "Range continues to achieve excellent operational results with unit costs declining by 10% year-over-year and significant operational efficiency gains being realized. The improvements in our unit cost structure combined with our best-in-class well costs make Range resilient in the continued challenging commodity price environment. As testament to that, Range's 29 member bank group unanimously reaffirmed our $3 billion borrowing base, despite Range selling our Nora assets at the end of 2015, which represented approximately 9% of our total company reserves at the time. 

"The start of Mariner East during the quarter was a monumental event for Range, as the first North American company to export ethane to Europe. Range's ability to export NGLs will be increasingly valuable during periods of local oversupply like we saw in 2015 and periods when international prices are more favorable. Since the beginning of the year, we have seen improved pricing for condensate and NGLs, and sentiment seems to be more optimistic regarding potential improvements in natural gas fundamentals and pricing. Range's shallow decline base of Marcellus production and concentrated, stacked-pay acreage allows for capital efficient drilling opportunities throughout the commodity price cycle and positions us well to drive shareholder value for years to come."

Financial Discussion

Except for generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") reported amounts, specific expense categories exclude non-cash impairments, unrealized mark-to-market gain or loss on derivatives, non-cash stock compensation and other items shown separately on the attached tables. "Unit costs" as used in this release are composed of direct operating, transportation, gathering and compression, production and ad valorem taxes, general and administrative, interest and depletion, depreciation and amortization costs divided by production. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a definition of each of the non-GAAP financial measures and the tables that reconcile each of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Asset Sales

Range closed the sale of its Bradford County non-operated Marcellus assets on March 28, 2016 and received approximately $110 million of proceeds. The Company sold an average working interest of 23% covering approximately 10,900 net acres with net production of approximately 22 Mmcf per day, which is included in our reported first quarter results through closing.

In April, Range signed a purchase and sale agreement for certain assets located in central Oklahoma for approximately $77 million, which is expected to close in the second quarter. The assets consist of approximately 9,200 net acres and approximately 5 Mmcfe per day of net production from approximately 200 wells in Blaine, Canadian and Kingfisher Counties. Following the closing of this sale, the Company will still own approximately 19,000 net acres in central Oklahoma. The retained acreage, which is primarily held by production, is in the northern extension of the STACK play and includes Osage and other reservoir targets. Multiple tests are currently being drilled near Range's acreage. 

Bank Credit Facility

The Company's existing $3 billion borrowing base and $2 billion commitment amount under its $4 billion bank credit facility were unanimously reaffirmed by its 29 lenders with no changes to the financial covenants. The credit facility matures on October 16, 2019 and is subject to annual redeterminations, which are required to be completed by May of each year. The balance drawn under the credit facility at March 31, 2016 was $31 million. 

First Quarter 2016

GAAP revenues for the first quarter of 2016 totaled $331 million (28% decrease compared to first quarter 2015), GAAP net cash provided from operating activities including changes in working capital was $87 million (a 58% decrease as compared to first quarter 2015) and GAAP earnings were a loss of $92 million ($0.55 loss per diluted share) versus earnings of $28 million ($0.16 per diluted share) in the prior-year quarter. First quarter 2016 results included a $43 million proved property impairment related to legacy assets in Oklahoma. First quarter 2016 also included $87 million in derivative gains due to decreased commodity prices, compared to a $123 million gain in 2015 and deferred compensation plan expense of $16 million compared to $6 million of gains in the prior-year quarter. 

Non-GAAP revenues for first quarter 2016 totaled $354 million (19% decrease compared to first quarter 2015), cash flow from operations before changes in working capital, a non-GAAP measure, was $99 million. Adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates, a non-GAAP measure, was a loss of $17 million ($0.10 loss per diluted share) for the first quarter 2016 compared to earnings of $31 million ($0.19 per diluted share) in the prior-year quarter. The Company's total unit costs decreased by $0.29 per mcfe, or 10%, compared to the prior-year quarter, as shown below:

Expenses			1Q 2016 (per mcfe)		1Q 2015 (per mcfe)		Increase (Decrease)

	Total unit costs(a)		$ 2.71		$ 3.00		(10%)
(a) Totals may not add due to rounding

First quarter 2016 natural gas, NGLs and oil price realizations (including the impact of cash-settled hedges and derivative settlements which correspond to analysts' estimates) averaged $2.54 per mcfe, a 28% decrease from the prior-year quarter. Additional detail on commodity price realizations can be found in the Supplemental Tables provided on the Company's website. 

• Production and realized prices by each commodity for first quarter 2016 were: natural gas - 933 Mmcf per day ($2.69 per mcf), NGLs - 65,656 barrels per day ($10.22 per barrel) and crude oil and condensate - 9,278 barrels per day ($35.49 per barrel). Total first quarter production was 1,382 Mmcfe per day ($2.54 per mcfe). 
  
  
• The first quarter average natural gas price, before all hedging settlements, was $1.68 per mcf as compared to $2.84 per mcf in the prior-year quarter. NYMEX natural gas financial hedges increased realizations $0.90 per mcf in the first quarter of 2016. The average Company natural gas price differential including the impact of basis hedges for the first quarter was ($0.31) per mcf compared to ($0.24) per mcf in the prior-year quarter.
  
  
• Total NGL pricing per barrel including ethane and processing expenses before realized cash-settled hedging improved to 25% of WTI ($8.40 per barrel) compared to 23% of WTI ($11.16 per barrel) in the prior-year quarter. Hedging increased NGL prices by $1.82 per barrel in the first quarter. 
  
  
• Crude oil and condensate price realizations, before realized hedges, for the first quarter averaged $20.00 per barrel, or $13.56 below WTI, compared to $16.19 below WTI in the prior-year quarter. Hedging added $15.49 per barrel in the first quarter.
  
  

Capital Expenditures

First quarter 2016 drilling expenditures of $130 million funded the drilling of 24 (22 net) wells. A 100% success rate was achieved. In addition, during the quarter, $5 million was incurred on acreage purchases, $1 million on gas gathering systems and $4 million on exploration expense. Range is on target with its $495 million capital budget for 2016. The Company expects to average three rigs running throughout 2016.

Operational Discussion

Range has updated its investor presentation with first quarter financial and operational results. Please see www.rangeresources.com under the Investors tab, "Company Presentations" area, for the presentation entitled, "Company Presentation - April 28, 2016."

Marcellus Shale

Production for the first quarter averaged approximately 1,330 net Mmcfe per day for the Marcellus Shale divisions, a 17% increase over the prior-year quarter. The Southern Marcellus Shale Division averaged 1,097 net Mmcfe per day during the quarter, a 24% increase over the prior-year quarter. The Northern Marcellus Shale Division averaged 233 net Mmcf per day during the quarter, an 8% decrease over the prior-year quarter.

The table below summarizes first quarter activity and the number of wells expected to be turned in line (TIL) for the remainder of 2016:

			Wells TIL - First Quarter 2016		Remaining 2016 Wells to sales		Planned Total Wells to sales in 2016
Super-Rich area			8		5		13
Wet area			9		29		38
Dry- SW			10		28		38
Dry- NE			12		3		15
	Total Marcellus/Utica		39		65		104

Operational efficiency gains continued in the first quarter. In the southern division, Range completed 1,324 stages during the quarter averaging over 7 stages per day per crew, which is a 9% improvement compared to the prior-year quarter. During the quarter, the Company drilled 50% more lateral feet per day per rig, on average, when compared to the prior-year quarter. This drilling improvement helped lower drilling costs per foot by 20%. These and other efficiencies have driven Range's normalized (per 1,000 feet of lateral) well costs, including surface facility costs, lower than any other Marcellus peer, as shown in the latest Company presentation.

Range also completed its third dry gas Utica well in southwestern Pennsylvania during the quarter. After producing to sales for approximately 30 days, the well is currently shut-in, waiting for completion of surface facilities and allowing for extended bottom-hole pressure buildup. Early data suggests this well is more productive and lower cost compared to the Company's first two Utica wells. After the installation of the production facilities is complete, the well is expected to be brought back on line at a constant, constrained rate of production. Range has approximately 400,000 acres in southwest Pennsylvania which it considers prospective for Utica development. While results from the Company's dry Utica wells are encouraging, Range will continue to focus capital on its prolific Marcellus acreage position that has been de-risked by thousands of wells, some with up to 10 years of production history. 

Marcellus Shale Marketing and Transportation

The Mariner East project continued to progress in the first quarter, as the first ethane ship, the JIS INEOS Intrepid, was loaded in March. The Company is now selling ethane under a long-term contract at Marcus Hook to INEOS for use in its European petrochemical facilities. As part of the finalization of Mariner East, the propane-loading facilities have also been upgraded, which will allow larger VLGC carriers to load liquefied propane gas (LPG) at Marcus Hook. The first VLGC shipment of Range propane also occurred in March, making Range a first-mover amongst producers in waterborne propane and expanding the Company's international marketing opportunities. By utilizing larger LPG carriers, the Company expects to lower the cost of shipping to international markets, realizing better netback pricing for its propane. In addition, Range has hedged the premium spread between the Mont Belvieu propane index and the respective European and Asian propane market indexes on approximately one-third of anticipated propane sales for the remainder of 2016. 

Range's marketing team was able to optimize the Company's firm transportation as well as released capacity from other producers to improve cash flow during the first quarter. This is reflected in the income statement through improved Brokered natural gas, marketing and other net revenue for the quarter. This improved cash flow helped to partially offset natural gas basis differentials that were weaker than anticipated given the record warm winter. Range expects full-year natural gas differentials to range between $0.40 and $0.45 for 2016. Brokered natural gas marketing net expense could approximate $3 million for the second quarter, driven by periodic opportunities in the market.

Guidance

Production per day Guidance

Production for the entire 2016 year has been increased to the high-end of previous guidance to average 1,410 to 1,420 Mmcfe per day after all announced asset sales. Production for the second quarter of 2016 is expected to be approximately 1,410 Mmcfe per day with 32% to 35% liquids.

Natural Gas:		NYMEX minus $0.40 - $0.45
Natural Gas Liquids (including ethane):		23% - 25% of WTI
Oil/Condensate:		WTI minus $13 - $14

Hedging Status

Range hedges portions of its expected future production volumes to increase the predictability of cash flow. Range currently has approximately 80% of its expected 2016 natural gas production hedged at a weighted average floor price of $3.24 per mcf. Similarly, Range has hedged approximately 60% of its 2016 projected crude oil production at a floor price of $59.92 and approximately 50% of its composite NGL production. In addition, Range has begun hedging its 2017 and 2018 production. Please see Range's detailed hedging schedule posted at the end of the financial tables below and on its website at www.rangeresources.com. 

Range has hedged Marcellus and other basis differentials covering 143,452 Mmbtu per day for April 2016 through March 2017. The fair value of the basis hedges based upon future strip prices as of March 31, 2016 was a gain of approximately $640,000. 

Range has also hedged the premium spread between the Mont Belvieu propane index and the respective European and Asian propane market indexes on approximately one-third of anticipated LPG sales for the remainder of 2016. The fair value of these hedges based upon future strip prices as of March 31, 2016 was a gain of approximately $2.5 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income or loss comparable to analysts' estimates as set forth in this release represents income or loss before income taxes adjusted for certain non-cash items (detailed in the accompanying table) less income taxes. We believe adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates is calculated on the same basis as analysts' estimates and that many investors use this published research in making investment decisions and evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and gas producing companies. Diluted earnings per share (adjusted) as set forth in this release represents adjusted net income comparable to analysts' estimates on a diluted per share basis. A table is included which reconciles income or loss to adjusted net income (loss) comparable to analysts' estimates and diluted earnings per share (adjusted). On its website, the Company provides additional comparative information on prior periods along with non-GAAP revenue disclosures. 

Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital (sometimes referred to as "adjusted cash flow") as defined in this release represents net cash provided from operating activities before changes in working capital and exploration expense adjusted for certain non-cash compensation items. Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital is widely accepted by the investment community as a financial indicator of an oil and gas company's ability to generate cash to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service debt. Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital is also useful because it is widely used by professional research analysts in valuing, comparing, rating and providing investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry. In turn, many investors use this published research in making investment decisions. Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, investing, or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows, or as a measure of liquidity. A table is included which reconciles Net cash from operating activities to Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital as used in this release. On its website, the Company provides additional comparative information on prior periods for cash flow, cash margins and non-GAAP earnings as used in this release.

The cash prices realized for oil and natural gas production including the amounts realized on cash-settled derivatives and net of transportation, gathering and compression expense is a critical component in the Company's performance tracked by investors and professional research analysts in valuing, comparing, rating and providing investment recommendations and forecasts of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry. In turn, many investors use this published research in making investment decisions. Due to the GAAP disclosures of various derivative transactions and third-party transportation, gathering and compression expense, such information is now reported in various lines of the statement of operations. The Company believes that it is important to furnish a table reflecting the details of the various components of each statement of operations line to better inform the reader of the details of each amount and provide a summary of the realized cash-settled amounts and third-party transportation, gathering and compression expense which historically were reported as natural gas, NGLs and oil sales. This information is intended to bridge the gap between various readers' understanding and fully disclose the information needed.

The Company discloses in this release the detailed components of many of the single-line items shown in the GAAP financial statements included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company believes that it is important to furnish this detail of the various components comprising each line of the Statements of Operations to better inform the reader of the details of each amount, the changes between periods and the effect on its financial results.
