Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”) contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in this document, the words “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “continue,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “future,” “potential,” “estimate” or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to Pioneer Natural Resources Company (“Pioneer” or the “Company”) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the Company and the industry in which the Company operates. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, in many cases, beyond the Company’s control.

These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, volatility of commodity prices, product supply and demand, competition, the ability to obtain environmental and other permits and the timing thereof, other government regulation or action, the ability to obtain approvals from third parties and negotiate agreements with third parties on mutually acceptable terms, litigation, the costs and results of drilling and operations, availability of equipment, services and personnel required to complete the Company’s operating activities, access to and availability of transportation, processing and refining facilities, Pioneer’s ability to replace reserves, implement its business plans or complete its development activities as scheduled, access to and cost of capital, the financial strength of counterparties to Pioneer’s credit facility and derivative contracts and the purchasers of Pioneer’s oil, NGL and gas production, uncertainties about estimates of reserves and the ability to add proved reserves in the future, the assumptions underlying production forecasts, quality of technical data, environmental and weather risks, including the possible impacts of climate change, international operations and acts of war or terrorism. These and other risks are described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, this and other Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In addition, the Company may be subject to currently unforeseen risks that may have a materially adverse effect on it. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that the actual events and results will not be materially different than the anticipated results described in the forward-looking statements. See “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Part 1, Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” and “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Report and “Part I, Item 1. Business — Competition, Markets and Regulations,” “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors,” “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for a description of various factors that could materially affect the ability of Pioneer to achieve the anticipated results described in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no duty to publicly update these statements except as required by law.

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

Definitions of Certain Terms and Conventions Used Herein

Within this Report, the following terms and conventions have specific meanings:

• “AOCI - Hedging” means accumulated other comprehensive income – net deferred hedge gains, net of tax, a component of the Company’s consolidated stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

• “Bbl” means a standard barrel containing 42 United States gallons.

• “Bcf” means one billion cubic feet.

• “BOE” means a barrel of oil equivalent and is a standard convention used to express oil and gas volumes on a comparable oil equivalent basis. Gas equivalents are determined under the relative energy content method by using the ratio of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one Bbl of oil or natural gas liquid.

• “BOEPD” means BOE per day.

• “Btu” means British thermal unit, which is a measure of the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit.

• “DD&A” means depletion, depreciation and amortization.

• “GAAP” means accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States of America.

• “LIBOR” means London Interbank Offered Rate, which is a market rate of interest.

• “MBbl” means one thousand Bbls.

• “MBOE” means one thousand BOEs.

• “Mcf” means one thousand cubic feet and is a measure of gas volume.

• “MMBbl” means one million Bbls.

• “MMBOE” means one million BOEs.

• “MMBtu” means one million Btus.

• “MMcf” means one million cubic feet.

• “MMcfpd” means one million cubic feet per day.

• “Mont Belvieu–posted-price” means the daily average natural gas liquids components as priced in Oil Price Information Service (“OPIS”) in the table “U.S. and Canada LP – Gas Weekly Averages” at Mont Belvieu, Texas.

• “NGL” means natural gas liquid.

• “NYMEX” means the New York Mercantile Exchange.

• “NYSE” means the New York Stock Exchange.

• “Pioneer” or the “Company” means Pioneer Natural Resources Company and its subsidiaries.

• “Pioneer Southwest” means Pioneer Southwest Energy Partners L.P. and its subsidiaries.

• “Proved reserves” mean the quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible – from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations – prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.

(i) The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes: (A) The area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any, and (B) Adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data.

(ii) In the absence of data on fluid contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known hydrocarbons (“LKH”) as seen in a well penetration unless geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establishes a lower contact with reasonable certainty.

(iii) Where direct observation from well penetrations has defined a highest known oil (“HKO”) elevation and the potential exists for an associated gas cap, proved oil reserves may be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir only if geoscience, engineering or performance data and reliable technology establish the higher contact with reasonable certainty.

(iv) Reserves which can be produced economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including, but not limited to, fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when: (A) Successful testing by a pilot project in an area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir as a whole, the operation of an installed program in the reservoir or an analogous reservoir, or other evidence using reliable technology establishes the reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based; and (B) The project has been approved for development by all necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities.

(v) Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price shall be the average during the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.

• “Standardized Measure” means the after-tax present value of estimated future net cash flows of proved reserves, determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, using prices and costs employed in the determination of proved reserves and a ten percent discount rate.

• “U.S.” means United States.

• With respect to information on the working interest in wells, drilling locations and acreage, “net” wells, drilling locations and acres are determined by multiplying “gross” wells, drilling locations and acres by the Company’s working interest in such wells, drilling locations or acres. Unless otherwise specified, wells, drilling locations and acreage statistics quoted herein represent gross wells, drilling locations or acres.

• Unless otherwise indicated, all currency amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.

NOTE A.    Organization and Nature of Operations

Pioneer Natural Resources Company (“Pioneer” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation whose common stock is listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company is a large independent oil and gas exploration and production company with continuing operations in the United States and South Africa.

NOTE B.    Basis of Presentation

Presentation. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2011 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring accrual adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in this report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Discontinued operations. During December 2010, the Company committed to a plan to divest 100 percent of the Company’s share holdings in Pioneer Natural Resources Tunisia Ltd. and Pioneer Natural Resources Anaguid Ltd. (referred to in the aggregate as “Pioneer Tunisia”). In February 2011, the Company completed the sale of Pioneer Tunisia to an unaffiliated third party. Accordingly, the Company classified the assets and liabilities of Pioneer Tunisia as discontinued operations held for sale in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and has classified the results of operations of Pioneer Tunisia as discontinued operations, net of tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations (representing a recasting of the Pioneer Tunisia results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, which were originally classified as continuing operations). See Note Q for more information regarding the sale of Pioneer Tunisia.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement (the “BOEMRE”) paid the Company $2.0 million and $35.3 million, respectively, of interest on excess royalty payments associated with properties that were sold by the Company during 2006. Accordingly, the Company has classified the interest income as components of income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Allowances for doubtful accounts. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company’s allowances for doubtful accounts totaled $1.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively. Changes in the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are summarized in the following table:

	Three Months  Ended June 30, 2011			Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
	(in thousands)
Beginning allowance for doubtful accounts balance	$	3,535		$	3,674
Amount recorded in other expense for bad debt recoveries		(1,815	)		(1,797	)
Other net decreases		(306	)		(463	)
Ending allowance for doubtful accounts balance	$	1,414		$	1,414

Inventories. Inventories used in continuing operations consisted of $247.9 million and $183.4 million of materials and supplies and $4.1 million and $3.9 million of commodities as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company’s materials and supplies inventory was net of $2.5 million and $3.6 million, respectively, of valuation reserve allowances. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company estimated that $17.9 million and $13.7 million, respectively, of its materials and supplies inventory would not be utilized or sold within one year. Accordingly, those inventory values have been classified as other noncurrent assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2010, the Company also had inventory in Tunisia totaling $13.6 million that is classified as discontinued operations held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010.

Derivatives and hedging. All derivatives are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at estimated fair value. See Note D for further information regarding the fair value of the Company’s derivatives. Effective February 1, 2009, the Company discontinued hedge accounting on all of its then-existing hedge contracts. Changes in the fair value of effective cash flow hedges prior to the Company’s discontinuance of hedge accounting were recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income – net deferred hedge gains, net of tax (“AOCI – Hedging”), in the stockholders’ equity section of the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and are being transferred to earnings during the same periods in which the hedged transactions are recognized in the Company’s earnings. Since February 1, 2009, the Company has recognized all changes in the fair values of its derivative contracts as gains or losses in the earnings of the periods in which they occur.

The Company classifies the fair value amounts of derivative assets and liabilities executed under master netting arrangements as net current or noncurrent derivative assets or net current or noncurrent derivative liabilities, whichever the case may be, by commodity and counterparty. Net derivative asset values are determined, in part, by utilization of the derivative counterparties’ credit-adjusted risk-free rate curves and net derivative liabilities are determined, in part, by utilization of the Company’s and Pioneer Southwest Energy Partners L.P.’s (“Pioneer Southwest,” a majority-owned and consolidated subsidiary) credit-adjusted risk-free rate curves. The credit-adjusted risk-free rate curves for the Company and the counterparties are based on their independent market-quoted credit default swap rate curves plus the United States Treasury Bill yield curve as of the valuation date. Pioneer Southwest’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate curve is based on independent market-quoted forward London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) curves plus 250 basis points, representing Pioneer Southwest’s estimated borrowing rate.

Goodwill. Goodwill is assessed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment of the carrying value of goodwill is likely, but no less often than annually. If the carrying value of goodwill is determined to be impaired, it is reduced for the impaired value with a corresponding charge to pretax earnings in the period in which it is determined to be impaired. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company performed its annual assessment of goodwill impairment and determined that there was no impairment.

Noncontrolling interest in consolidated subsidiaries. The Company owns a 0.1 percent general partner interest and a 61.9 percent limited partner interest in Pioneer Southwest. Pioneer Southwest owns interests in certain oil and gas properties in the Spraberry field in the Permian Basin of West Texas. The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Pioneer Southwest are consolidated with those of the Company.

The Company also owns a majority interest in Sendero Drilling Company, LLC (“Sendero”), which owns and operates land-based drilling rigs in the United States. In addition, the Company owns the majority interests in certain other subsidiaries with operations in the United States.

Noncontrolling interest in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries totaled $101.0 million and $105.4 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The Company recorded net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $20.1 million and $15.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively (principally related to Pioneer Southwest), compared to net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $21.1 million and $36.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

Investment in unconsolidated affiliate. The Company owns a 50.1 percent interest in EFS Midstream LLC (“EFS Midstream”), which owns and operates natural gas and liquids gathering, treating and transportation assets in the Eagle Ford Shale area of South Texas.

The Company accounts for the EFS Midstream investment under the equity method of accounting for investments in unconsolidated affiliates. Under the equity method, the Company’s investment in unconsolidated affiliates is increased for investments made and the investor’s share of the investee’s net income, and decreased for distributions received, the carrying value of investor’s interests sold and the investor’s share of the investee’s net losses. The Company’s equity interest in the net income of EFS Midstream is recorded in interest and other income in the Company’s accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Stock-based compensation. For stock-based compensation equity awards granted or modified, compensation expense is being recognized in the Company’s financial statements on a straight line basis over the awards’ vesting periods based on their fair values on the dates of grant. The amount of compensation expense recognized at any date is at least equal to the portion of the measurement date (normally the grant date) value of the award that is vested at that date. The Company utilizes (i) the Black-Scholes option pricing model to measure the fair value of stock options,

12

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2011

(Unaudited)

(ii) the prior day’s closing stock price on the date of grant for the fair value of restricted stock, restricted stock units, partnership unit awards or phantom unit awards that are expected to be settled wholly in the Company’s common stock or Pioneer Southwest common units (“Equity Awards”), (iii) the Monte Carlo simulation method for the fair value of performance unit awards and (iv) a probabilistic forecasted fair value method for series B unit awards issued by Sendero.

Stock-based compensation liability awards are awards that are expected to be settled wholly or partially in cash on their vesting dates, rather than in shares or units (“Liability Awards”). Stock-based Liability Awards are recorded as accounts payable – affiliates based on the fair value of the services that have been rendered on the unvested portions of the awards on the balance sheet date. The fair values of Liability Awards are updated at each balance sheet date and changes in the fair values of the unvested portions of the awards for which services have been rendered are recorded as increases or decreases to compensation expense. As of June 30, 2011, accounts payable – due to affiliates includes $3.9 million of liabilities attributable to the Liability Awards.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $13.8 million and $26.4 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation costs for all plans, as compared to $10.5 million and $20.6 million for the same respective periods of 2010. As of June 30, 2011, there was $93.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share- and unit-based compensation plan awards, including $21.6 million attributable to Liability Awards. This compensation will be recognized over the remaining vesting periods of the awards, which on a weighted average basis is a period of less than three years.

The Company’s issued shares, as reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, do not include 536,775 and 825,796 common shares, respectively, associated with unvested stock-based compensation awards that have voting rights.

The following table summarizes the activity that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2011, for each type of share-based incentive award issued by Pioneer:

	Restricted Stock Equity Awards			Restricted Stock Liability Awards			Performance Units			Stock Options			Pioneer Southwest LTIP Restricted Units			Pioneer Southwest LTIP Phantom Units
Outstanding at December 31, 2010		2,559,779			215,134			263,729			507,539			12,212			35,118

New accounting pronouncements. During December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-28, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350).” ASU No. 2010-28 modifies step one of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, requiring that an entity perform step two of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists for those reporting units. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2010-28 effective January 1, 2011. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-28 had no effect on the Company’s goodwill balance. See “Goodwill” above for more information about the Company’s policy for assessing impairment of its goodwill.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” ASU 2011-04 amended ASC 820 to converge the fair value measurement guidance in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Certain of the amendments clarify the application of existing fair value measurement requirements, while other amendments change a particular principle in ASC 820. In addition, ASU 2011-04 requires additional fair value disclosures. The amendments will be applied prospectively and are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

(Unaudited)

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05 “Presentation of Comprehensive Income (Topic 220).” To increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income, ASU 2011-05 requires comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income to be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE C.    Exploratory Costs

The Company capitalizes exploratory well and project costs until a determination is made that the well or project has either found proved reserves, is impaired or is sold. The Company’s capitalized exploratory well and project costs are presented in proved properties in the consolidated balance sheets. If the exploratory well or project is determined to be impaired, the impaired costs are charged to exploration and abandonments expense.

The following table reflects the Company’s capitalized exploratory well and project activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011:

	Three Months Ended June  30, 2011			Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
	(in thousands)
Beginning capitalized exploratory costs	$	80,530		$	96,193

	$	85,111	$	96,193
Number of projects with exploratory costs that have been suspended for a period greater than one year		1		3

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has one project with exploratory costs that has been suspended for a period of one year or more, which is described below. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had three Tunisian projects with exploratory costs that had been suspended for a period of one year or more, all of which were included in the Pioneer Tunisia assets sold during February 2011.

South Texas Project. As of June 30, 2011, the Company has $8.0 million of suspended exploratory costs associated with a formation test well in South Texas. The well is currently awaiting finalization of the project’s ongoing fracture stimulation and completion designs. The Company successfully completed one other test well in the project and plans to drill a third test well during the second half of 2011. Information gained from the wells is being utilized to finalize the project’s fracture stimulation and completion designs. Future production from the project would utilize existing production and marketing infrastructure.

NOTE D.    Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with GAAP, fair value measurements are based upon inputs that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, which are classified into two categories: observable inputs and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs represent market data obtained from independent sources, whereas unobservable inputs reflect a company’s own market assumptions, which are used if observable inputs are not reasonably available without undue cost and effort. These two types of inputs are further prioritized into the following fair value input hierarchy:

• Level 1 – quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

• Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates) and inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

• Level 3 – unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The fair value input hierarchy level to which an asset or liability measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety. The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2011, for each of the fair value hierarchy levels:

	Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using

Trading securities and deferred compensation plan assets. The Company’s trading securities represent securities that are both actively traded and not actively traded on major exchanges. The Company’s deferred compensation plan assets represent investments in equity and mutual fund securities that are actively traded on major exchanges plus unallocated contributions as of the measurement date. As of June 30, 2011, all significant inputs to these asset exchange values represented Level 1 independent active exchange market price inputs except inputs for certain trading securities that are not actively traded on major exchanges, which were corroborated broker quotes representing Level 2 inputs.

Interest rate derivatives. The Company’s interest rate derivative assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2011 represent swap contracts for $470 million notional amount of debt, whereby the Company pays a variable LIBOR-based rate and the counterparty pays a fixed rate of interest. The net derivative values attributable to the Company’s

16

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2011

(Unaudited)

interest rate derivative contracts as of June 30, 2011 are based on (i) the contracted notional amounts, (ii) LIBOR rate yield curves provided by counterparties and corroborated with forward active market-quoted LIBOR rate yield curves and (iii) the applicable credit-adjusted risk-free rate yield curve. The Company’s interest rate derivative asset and liability measurements represent Level 2 inputs in the hierarchy priority.

Commodity derivatives. The Company’s commodity derivatives represent oil, NGL, gas and diesel swap contracts, collar contracts and collar contracts with short puts (which are also known as three-way collar contracts). The Company’s oil, gas and diesel swap, collar and three-way collar derivative contract asset and liability measurements represent Level 2 inputs in the hierarchy priority and NGL derivative contract asset and liability measurements represent Level 3 inputs in the hierarchy priority.

Oil derivatives. The Company’s oil derivatives are swap, collar and three-way collar contracts for notional barrels (“Bbls”) of oil at fixed (in the case of swap contracts) or interval (in the case of collar and three-way collar contracts) New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”) West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) oil prices. The asset and liability values attributable to the Company’s oil derivatives were determined based on (i) the contracted notional volumes, (ii) independent active NYMEX futures price quotes for WTI oil, (iii) the applicable estimated credit-adjusted risk-free rate yield curve and (iv) the implied rate of volatility inherent in the collar and three-way collar contracts. The implied rates of volatility inherent in the Company’s collar contracts were determined based on average volatility factors provided by certain independent brokers who are active in buying and selling oil options and were corroborated by market-quoted volatility factors.

NGL derivatives. The Company’s NGL derivatives include swap and collar contracts for notional blended Bbls of Mont Belvieu-posted-price NGLs, Conway-posted-price NGLs or NGL component prices per Bbl. The asset and liability values attributable to the Company’s NGL derivatives were determined based on (i) the contracted notional volumes, (ii) independent active market-quoted NGL component prices and (iii) the applicable credit-adjusted risk-free rate yield curve. The implied rates of volatility inherent in the Company’s collar contracts were determined based on average volatility factors provided by certain independent brokers who are active in buying and selling NGL options and were corroborated by market-quoted volatility factors.

Gas derivatives. The Company’s gas derivatives are swap, collar and three-way collar contracts for notional volumes of gas (expressed in millions of British thermal units “MMBtus”) contracted at various posted price indexes, including NYMEX Henry Hub (“HH”) contracts coupled with basis swap contracts that convert the HH price index point to other price indexes. The asset and liability values attributable to the Company’s gas derivative contracts were determined based on (i) the contracted notional volumes, (ii) independent active NYMEX futures price quotes for HH gas, (iii) independent market-quoted forward index prices, (iv) the applicable credit-adjusted risk-free rate yield curve and (v) the implied rate of volatility inherent in the collar and three-way collar contracts. The implied rates of volatility inherent in the Company’s collar contracts and three-way collar contracts were determined based on average volatility factors provided by certain independent brokers who are active in buying and selling gas options and were corroborated by market-quoted volatility factors.

Diesel derivatives. The Company’s diesel derivatives are comprised of swap contracts for notional Bbls posted as Gulf Coast Ultra Low Sulfur (Pipeline) diesel by a posting service. The asset and liability values attributable to the Company’s diesel derivatives were determined based on (i) the contracted notional volumes, (ii) independent active market-quoted diesel prices and (iii) the applicable credit-adjusted risk-free rate yield curve.

Credit facility. The fair value of the Company’s credit facility and Pioneer Southwest’s credit facility is based on (i) forecasted contractual interest and fee payments, (ii) forward active market-quoted LIBOR rate yield curves and (iii) the applicable credit-adjusted risk-free rate yield curve.

Senior notes. The Company’s senior notes represent debt securities that are actively traded on major exchanges. The fair values of the Company’s senior notes are based on their periodic values as quoted on the major exchanges.

NOTE E.    Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, which requires that the Company continually assess both positive and negative evidence to determine whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets can be realized prior to their expiration.

NOTE F.    Long-term Debt

Credit Facility. During March 2011, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated 5-Year Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of financial institutions that matures in March 2016, unless extended in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility replaces the Company’s Amended and Restated 5-Year Revolving Credit Agreement entered into in April 2007 (the “Expired Credit Facility”) and provides for aggregate loan commitments of $1.25 billion. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and $65.1 million of undrawn letters of credit, all of which were commitments under the Credit Facility, leaving the Company with $1.2 billion of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be in the form of revolving loans or swing line loans. Aggregate outstanding swing line loans may not exceed $150 million. Revolving loans under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the option of the Company, based on (a) a rate per annum equal to the higher of the prime rate announced from time to time by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association or the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System during the last preceding business day plus 0.5 percent plus a defined alternate base rate spread margin (“ABR Margin”), which is currently one percent based on the Company’s debt rating or (b) a base Eurodollar rate, substantially equal to LIBOR, plus a margin (the “Applicable Margin”), which is currently two percent and is also determined by the Company’s debt rating. Swing line loans under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the “ASK” rate for Federal funds periodically published by the Dow Jones Market Service plus the Applicable Margin. Letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility are subject to a per annum fee, representing the Applicable Margin plus 0.125 percent. The Company also pays commitment fees on undrawn amounts under the Credit Facility that are determined by the Company’s debt rating (currently 0.375 percent).

The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, which include the maintenance of a ratio of total debt to book capitalization less intangible assets, accumulated other comprehensive income and certain noncash asset impairments not to exceed .60 to 1.0. The covenants also include the maintenance of a ratio of the net present value of the Company’s oil and gas properties to total debt of at least 1.75 to 1.0 until the Company achieves an investment grade rating by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poors Ratings Group, Inc.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company and Pioneer Southwest were in compliance with all of their debt covenants.

In accordance with GAAP, the Company accounted for the entry into the Credit Facility as an extinguishment of the Expired Credit Facility. Associated therewith, the Company recorded a $2.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt to write off the unamortized issuance costs of the Company’s Expired Credit Facility, which is included in other expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 (see Note P).

Convertible senior notes. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had $480 million of 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes outstanding. The 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes are convertible under certain circumstances, using a net share settlement process, into a combination of cash and the Company’s common stock pursuant to a formula.

The Company’s stock price during March 2011 caused the Company’s 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes to become convertible at the option of the holders during the three months ended June 30, 2011. Associated therewith, holders of the 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes tendered $70 thousand principal amount of the notes for conversion during the three months ended June 30, 2011. During July and August 2011, the Company paid the holders a total of $71 thousand of cash and issued 340 shares of the Company’s common stock.

During June 2011, the Company’s stock price performance did not qualify the 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes for conversion at the option of the holders for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The Company’s 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes may become convertible in future quarters depending on the Company’s stock price performance or under certain other conditions. If all of the 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes had been converted on June 30, 2011, the note holders would have received $479.9 million of cash and approximately 1.8 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which was calculated over the last 20 trading days of June and valued at $158.8 million.

AOCI - Hedging. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, AOCI – Hedging represented net deferred gains of $2.9 million and $7.4 million, respectively. The AOCI – Hedging balance as of June 30, 2011 was comprised of $13.4 million of net deferred gains on the effective portions of discontinued commodity hedges, $1.8 million of net deferred losses on the effective portions of discontinued interest rate hedges and $1.8 million of associated net deferred tax provisions, reduced by $6.9 million of AOCI – Hedging net deferred gains attributable to and classified as noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries.

During the twelve months ending June 30, 2012, the Company expects to reclassify $15.0 million of AOCI – Hedging net deferred gains to oil revenues (including $7.0 million related to noncontrolling interests) and $299 thousand of AOCI – Hedging net deferred losses to interest expense. The Company also expects to reclassify $2.8 million of net deferred income tax provisions associated with hedge derivatives during the twelve months ending June 30, 2012 from AOCI – Hedging to income tax expense. For the remaining six months of 2011, the Company expects to reclassify deferred gains on discontinued commodity hedges of $16.6 million to oil revenues. During 2012, the Company expects to reclassify deferred losses on commodity hedges of $3.2 million to oil revenues. The aforementioned $1.8 million of net deferred hedge losses on the effective portion of interest rate hedges will be transferred from AOCI-Hedging to interest expense ratably through April 2018.

NOTE H.    Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company’s asset retirement obligations primarily relate to the future plugging and abandonment of wells and related facilities. Market risk premiums associated with asset retirement obligations are estimated to represent a component of the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate that is utilized in the calculations of asset retirement obligations.

NOTE J.    Commitments and Contingencies

Legal actions. In addition to the legal action described below, the Company is a party to other proceedings and claims incidental to its business. While many of these matters involve inherent uncertainty, the Company believes that the amount of the liability, if any, ultimately incurred with respect to such other proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position as a whole or on its liquidity, capital resources or future annual results of operations. The Company will continue to evaluate its litigation on a quarter-by-quarter basis and will establish and adjust any litigation reserves as appropriate to reflect its assessment of the then current status of litigation.

Investigation by the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (the “AOGCC”). During the second quarter of 2010, the AOGCC commenced an investigation into allegations by a former Pioneer employee regarding the Company’s Oooguruk facility on the North Slope of Alaska. Among the allegations are claims that the Company did not have authorization to inject certain non-hazardous substances into its enhanced oil recovery well, that the Company mishandled disposal of waste products and that the Company’s operating practices are harmful to the project’s oil reservoirs. Upon initially becoming aware of the allegations, the Company informed the AOGCC and other relevant federal, state and local agencies and commenced its own investigation, which confirmed injections of non-hazardous fluids into the Oooguruk enhanced oil recovery well without prior authorizations to do so. The results of the Company’s investigation were reported to the agencies. In December 2010, the AOGCC investigator submitted a report outlining its findings, which (i) found that the Company’s operating practices have not harmed the project’s oil reservoirs and (ii) raised certain regulatory compliance issues, all of which the Company previously reported or has since taken actions to remedy. Although the Company does not know at this time what action the AOGCC will take in response to the report, based on the facts as known to date, the Company believes that compliance with any order or other action of the AOGCC will not materially affect the Company’s liquidity, financial position or future results of operations.

Obligations following divestitures. In April 2006, the Company provided the purchaser of its Argentine assets certain indemnifications. The Company remains responsible for certain contingent liabilities related to such indemnifications, subject to defined limitations, including matters of litigation, environmental contingencies, royalty obligations and income taxes. The Company has also retained certain liabilities and indemnified buyers for certain matters in connection with other divestitures, including the sale in 2007 of its Canadian assets and the February 2011 sale of Pioneer Tunisia. The Company does not believe that these obligations are probable of having a material impact on its liquidity, financial position or future results of operations.

NOTE K.    Net Income (Loss) Per Share

In accordance with GAAP, the Company uses the two-class method of calculating net income (loss) per share because certain of the Company’s and its consolidated subsidiaries’ unvested share-based awards qualify as participating securities. Participating securities participate in the Company’s dividend distributions and are assumed to participate in the Company’s undistributed income proportionate to weighted average outstanding common shares, but are not assumed to participate in the Company’s net losses because they are not contractually obligated to do so. Accordingly, allocations of earnings to participating securities are included in the Company’s calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income attributable to common stockholders.

During periods in which the Company realizes a loss from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders, securities or other contracts to issue common stock would be dilutive to loss per share from continuing operations; therefore, conversion into common stock is assumed not to occur.

NOTE M.     Volumetric Production Payments

The Company’s remaining VPP represents a limited-term overriding royalty interest in oil reserves that: (i) entitles the purchaser to receive production volumes over a period of time from specific lease interests, (ii) is free and clear of all associated future production costs and capital expenditures associated with the reserves, (iii) is nonrecourse to the Company (i.e., the purchaser’s only recourse is to the reserves acquired), (iv) transfer title of the reserves to the purchaser and (v) allow the Company to retain the remaining reserves after the VPP’s volumetric quantities have been delivered.

At the inception of the VPP agreement, the Company (i) removed the proved reserves associated with the VPP, (ii) recognized VPP proceeds as deferred revenue which are being amortized on a unit-of-production basis to oil revenues over the remaining term of the VPP, (iii) retained responsibility for 100 percent of the production costs and capital costs related to VPP interests and (iv) no longer recognizes production associated with the VPP volumes.

The following table provides information about changes in the deferred revenue carrying values of the Company's VPP for the six months ended June 30, 2011 (in thousands):

Deferred revenue at December 31, 2010	$	87,020

NOTE N.    Gain (Loss) on Disposition of Assets, Net

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $296 thousand and $2.5 million of net losses on disposition of assets from continuing operations, respectively, as compared to $7.6 million and $24.6 million, respectively, of net gains from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

The Company’s net losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are primarily associated with sales of excess materials and supplies inventory. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company’s net gains are primarily attributable to the Company’s Eagle Ford Shale joint venture transaction that was completed during June 2010, and the sale of proved and unproved oil and gas properties in the Uinta/Piceance area.

See Note Q for information about the Company’s gains and losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 from the sale of its Tunisia subsidiaries that are included in discontinued operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Financial and Operating Performance

The Company’s financial and operating performance for the second quarter of 2011 included the following highlights:

• Earnings attributable to common stockholders were $245.6 million ($2.03 per diluted share), as compared to $167.6 million ($1.41 per diluted share) for the second quarter of 2010. The increase in earnings attributable to common stockholders is primarily due to (i) an increase in oil and NGL sales volumes and commodity prices, offset by increases in associated production costs, depletion expense and income taxes, and (ii) a $52.0 million increase in mark-to-market derivative gains.

• Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $421.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to $393.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The $27.3 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to an increase in earnings as noted above, partially offset by working capital changes.

• Net debt to book capitalization decreased to 32 percent at June 30, 2011, as compared to 37 percent at December 31, 2010, principally due to the cash proceeds received from the sale of Pioneer Tunisia and the associated gain recorded on the sale.

• Average reported oil, NGL and gas prices increased during the second quarter of 2011 to $104.35 per Bbl, $48.16 per Bbl and $4.31 per Mcf, respectively, as compared to respective prices of $89.21 per Bbl, $34.40 per Bbl and $4.05 per Mcf during the second quarter of 2010.

• During the second quarter of 2011, daily sales volumes increased by 10 percent to 118,585 BOEPD, as compared to 107,834 BOEPD during the second quarter of 2010. The increase in second quarter 2011 sales volumes, as compared to the second quarter of 2010, was primarily due to the Company’s successful drilling program in 2010 and the first half of 2011.

• Average per-BOE oil and gas production costs (including production and ad valorem taxes and transportation costs) increased during the second quarter of 2011 to $12.82, as compared to $12.17 per BOE during the second quarter of 2010, as a result of higher production taxes associated with the increase in commodity prices and cost inflation, primarily associated with oilfield services.

Third Quarter 2011 Outlook

Based on current estimates, the Company expects that third quarter 2011 production will average 125,000 to 131,000 BOEPD. The Company’s South Africa production was shut in during late-July due to unplanned third-party gas-to-liquids plant downtime. The third quarter production guidance does not reflect the potential for this downtime to extend beyond four weeks, which is a possibility.

Third quarter production costs (including production and ad valorem taxes and transportation costs) are expected to average $12.00 to $14.00 per BOE based on current NYMEX strip prices for oil, NGLs and gas. Depletion, depreciation and amortization (“DD&A”) expense is expected to average $13.50 to $15.00 per BOE.

Total exploration and abandonment expense for the quarter is expected to be $25 million to $35 million. General and administrative expense is expected to be $45 million to $50 million. Interest expense is expected to be $44 million to $48 million, and other expense is expected to be $20 million to $30 million. Accretion of discount on asset retirement obligations is expected to be $2 million to $4 million.

Noncontrolling interest in consolidated subsidiaries’ net income, excluding noncash mark-to-market adjustments, is expected to be $9 million to $12 million, primarily reflecting the public ownership in Pioneer Southwest.

The Company’s third quarter effective income tax rate is expected to range from 35 percent to 45 percent, assuming current capital spending plans and no significant mark-to-market changes in the Company’s derivative position. Cash income taxes are expected to range from $5 million to $10 million, principally related to South African income taxes.

Permian Basin area. During the first half of 2011, the Company drilled 278 wells in the Spraberry field, of which 273 were successful. The Company had 35 rigs operating as of June 30, 2011, and plans to increase its rig count to 45 rigs by the end of the year. The Company’s drilling program continues to include the deepening of wells to the Lower Wolfcamp formation, and in certain drilling areas, to the Strawn interval with positive production results. In addition, the Company has recently drilled two successful wells to the Atoka interval and one successful well to the Mississippian interval.

The Company continues to expand its integrated services to control drilling costs and support the execution of its accelerating drilling program. The Company has increased its owned drilling rigs to 14 and has four Company-owned fracture stimulation fleets currently operating in the Spraberry field. One additional fracture stimulation fleet is being built and is expected to be operational during the fourth quarter of 2011. To support its growing operations, the Company also owns other field service equipment, including pulling units, fracture stimulation tanks, water transport trucks, hot oilers, blowout preventers, construction equipment and fishing tools. In addition, the Company has contracted for forecasted fracture stimulation sand supply requirements through 2015, tubular and pumping unit requirements through 2012 and well cementing services through 2016.

The Company believes that vertical integration equipment will provide approximately one third of Pioneer’s drilling rig requirements and two thirds of fracture stimulation requirements in the Spraberry field during 2011. The Company’s growing fracture stimulation capacity in the Spraberry field is accelerating the pace at which wells are being placed on production and providing significant savings as compared to similar services provided by third-party contractors.

The Company has completed 85 wells in the Strawn interval since the testing program began in the first quarter of 2010. Initial peak production rates from this interval, when tested alone, have averaged 70 BOEPD. Early results suggest an increase of up to 20 percent in cumulative production over the first 12 months compared to production from offset Lower Wolfcamp wells over the same time period. The incremental cost per well for this deeper drilling and one additional fracture stimulation stage is approximately $60 thousand. The Company believes that the Strawn interval is prospective in 40 percent of its Spraberry acreage and expects to complete this interval in 25 percent of the wells in its 2011 Spraberry drilling program.

The Company has completed two Atoka wells in 2011. The initial peak production rate from this interval, when tested alone, averaged 150 BOEPD. The Company plans to test the Atoka interval for up to six months and then comingle this production with production from upper intervals in the Spraberry and Wolfcamp zones. The incremental cost to drill an Atoka well is estimated to be $250 thousand to $750 thousand, with the higher end of the range reflecting the addition of an intermediate casing string and either a water or carbon dioxide fracture stimulation. The Company plans to drill approximately 10 Atoka wells during 2011 to further evaluate the interval’s development potential. The Company believes that the Atoka interval is prospective in 25 percent to 50 percent of its Spraberry acreage.

The Company has completed its first Mississippian well in 2011. The first vertical test had an initial peak production rate of 105 BOEPD. The Company plans to test the interval for at least six months and then commingle the production with production from upper intervals in the Spraberry and Wolfcamp. The incremental cost per well for this deeper interval and one additional fracture stimulation stage is approximately $150 thousand to $250 thousand. The Company believes the Mississippian interval is prospective in 10 percent to 20 percent of its Spraberry acreage. The Company plans to drill approximately 10 Mississippian wells during 2011.

The Company has also dedicated one drilling rig towards research and development of horizontal drilling applications in multiple intervals of the Spraberry field. The first well to test the Lower Wolfcamp shale interval was a 3,500-foot lateral with a 15-stage fracture stimulation completion. The well had an initial production rate of 200 barrels of oil per day (“BOPD”) and 120 MCFPD with less than 50 percent of the load water recovered.

36

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

The Company plans to drill six additional horizontal wells during the second half of 2011, targeting the Tippett shale (Middle Wolfcamp) and Jo Mill (Middle Spraberry) intervals. The first Tippett shale well, with a planned lateral section of 6,000 feet and a 30-stage fracture stimulation completion, is currently being drilled.

The Company continues to test downspacing in the Spraberry field from 40 acres to 20 acres. Eighteen 20-acre wells were drilled in 2010, and all of these wells are on production. These 20-acre wells are capturing pay from the Lower Wolfcamp, Strawn and shale/silt intervals, with encouraging results. The Company plans to drill 10 to 20 additional 20-acre downspaced wells in 2011.

South Texas and Eagle Ford Shale area. The Company’s drilling activities in the South Texas area during 2011 continue to be primarily focused on delineation and development of Pioneer’s substantial acreage position in the Eagle Ford Shale play. The Company has increased its drilling rigs in the Eagle Ford Shale play from nine during the second quarter of 2011 to 12 drilling rigs currently, with plans to increase the Eagle Ford Shale rig count to 14 rigs in 2012, 16 rigs in 2013 and 19 rigs in 2014.

The Company has drilled and completed 39 horizontal Eagle Ford Shale wells during the first six months of 2011. On June 30, 2011, 23 Eagle Ford Shale wells were in progress or awaiting completion and hookup. Completion of wells in the first quarter of 2011 had been delayed primarily due to limited third-party fracture stimulation fleet availability.

To improve the execution of its drilling and completions program and reduce costs, the Company has purchased two fracture stimulation fleets for Eagle Ford Shale operations. One fleet was placed in service in April 2011 and the other is expected to be operational during the fourth quarter of 2011. The Company also entered into a two-year contract for a dedicated third-party fracture stimulation fleet, which commenced operating in April 2011. The increases in available fracture stimulation fleets has resulted in a reduction in wells awaiting completion,

The unconsolidated affiliate formed by the Company to operate gathering facilities in the Eagle Ford Shale area, EFS Midstream, is obligated to construct midstream assets in the Eagle Ford Shale area. Construction of the midstream assets is underway, with the majority of the construction expected to be completed by 2013. Five of the 12 planned central gathering plants (“CGPs”) were completed as of June 30, 2011. EFS Midstream plans to build three additional CGPs during the remainder of 2011, including two during the third quarter of 2011. As construction of CGPs is completed, EFS Midstream will provide gathering, treating and transportation services for the Company during a 20-year contractual term. The Company has invested $155.7 million of capital in EFS Midstream, $82.9 million of which was contributed during the six months ended June 30, 2011. During June 2011, EFS Midstream entered into a $300 million, five-year revolving credit facility that will be used to fund infrastructure investments that are in excess of operating cash flow.

Alaska. The Company owns a 70 percent working interest and is the operator of the Oooguruk development project. The Company has drilled 12 production wells and seven injection wells of the estimated 17 production and 16 injection wells planned to fully develop this project. The Company drilled a horizontal exploration well in the Torok formation during 2010 and completed a second Torok well in the first quarter of 2011. Based on the performance to date, the Company plans to drill and fracture stimulate an additional Torok well in early 2012 to further evaluate the productivity of the formation and the feasibility of future development expansion.

Barnett Shale. During the first half of 2011, the Company operated two drilling rigs and drilled and completed 16 Barnett Shale wells. The Company plans to increase its drilling rigs in the Barnett Shale to four rigs during 2012. A Pioneer-owned fracture stimulation fleet commenced operating in the Barnett Shale during the second quarter of 2011. As of June 30, 2011, 27 Barnett Shale wells were in progress. In addition, the Company has acquired 160 square miles of 3-D seismic covering its acreage and expects to increase this coverage by 190 square miles by year end. The Company is utilizing the 3-D seismic to high-grade future drilling location selections.

Results of Operations

Oil and gas revenues. Oil and gas revenues totaled $583.9 million and $1.1 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $422.0 million and $894.1 million for the same respective periods of 2010.

The increase in oil and gas revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period of 2010, is reflective of increases in worldwide average reported oil, NGL and gas prices and United States oil,

37

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

NGL and gas sales volumes, partially offset by decreases in average South Africa oil and gas sales volumes. The increase in oil and gas revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period of 2010, is reflective of increases in worldwide average reported oil and NGL prices and United States oil, NGL and gas sales volumes, partially offset by decreases in worldwide average reported gas prices and average South Africa oil and gas sales volumes.

During March 2011, a third-party fractionator for the Company’s Mid-Continent NGL production experienced a longer-than-anticipated turnaround. As a result, the NGL production was inventoried in March and was fractionated and sold during the second quarter of 2011. The impact of the fractionator’s turnaround increased second quarter NGL sales by approximately 1 MBOEPD.

The following table provides average daily sales volumes from continuing operations, by geographic area and in total, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

In the United States, average daily BOE sales volumes increased by 11 percent and eight percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to the same respective periods of 2010 due to results from the Company’s successful drilling programs and declines in scheduled VPP deliveries. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, average South Africa daily BOE sales volumes decreased by 15 percent and 22 percent, respectively, as compared to the same respective periods of 2010, due to normal well decline rates. See “Third Quarter Outlook” for information about South Africa production curtailment due to unplanned third-party gas-to-liquid plant downtime.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, oil volumes delivered under the Company’s VPPs decreased by 45 percent for each period. The Company completed its oil delivery obligations under one of the VPP agreements at the end of 2010.

Derivative activities. The Company utilizes commodity swap contracts, collar contracts and collar contracts with short puts in order to (i) reduce the effect of price volatility on the commodities the Company produces, sells and consumes, (ii) support the Company’s annual capital budgeting and expenditure plans and (iii) reduce commodity price risk associated with certain capital projects. See Note G of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for the scheduled amortization of net deferred gains and losses on discontinued commodity hedges that will be recognized as increases or decreases to future oil revenues.

The following table provides the transfers of deferred hedge gains from AOCI-Hedging associated with oil, NGL and gas price cash flow hedges to oil, NGL and gas revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

	Three Months Ended June  30,				Six Months Ended June  30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
	(in thousands)
Increase to oil revenue from AOCI-Hedging transfers	$	8,208	$	19,792	$	16,332	$	40,209

Total	$	8,208	$	22,532	$	16,332	$	45,658

Deferred revenue. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company’s amortization of deferred VPP revenue increased oil revenues by $11.2 million and $22.3 million, respectively, as compared to an increase of $22.6 million and $45.1 million during the same respective periods of 2010. See Note M of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for specific information regarding the Company’s VPPs.

Interest and other income. Interest and other income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $18.5 million and $51.1 million, respectively, as compared to $17.0 million and $35.0 million for the same respective periods in 2010. The $1.5 million increase in interest and other income during the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was primarily due to a $12.7 million increase in third-party income from vertical integration services and $1.8 million in Eagle Ford Shale land fee receipts, partially offset by a $13.6 million decrease in Alaskan Petroleum Production tax credit recoveries. The $16.1 million increase in interest and other income during the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was primarily due to a $15.1 million increase in third-party income from vertical integration services and the aforementioned $1.8 million in Eagle Ford Shale land fees. See Note O of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information regarding interest and other income.

Gain (Loss) on disposition of assets, net. The Company recorded net losses on the disposition of assets of $296 thousand and $2.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to net gains on the disposition of assets of $7.6 million and $24.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The 2011 net losses were primarily associated with sales of excess materials and supplies inventory. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded gains associated with the Company’s Eagle Ford Shale joint venture transaction and the sale of proved and unproved oil and gas properties in the Uinta/Piceance area. See Note N of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the Company’s gains and losses on dispositions of assets.

Oil and gas production costs. The Company recorded oil and gas production costs of $102.5 million and $202.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $94.0 million and $180.1 million during the same respective periods of 2010. In general, lease operating expenses and workover expenses represent the components of oil and gas production costs over which the Company has management control, while third-party transportation charges represent the cost to transport volumes produced to a sales point. Net natural gas plant/gathering charges represent the net costs to gather and process the Company’s gas, reduced by net revenues earned from gathering and processing of third party gas in Company-owned facilities.

Total oil and gas production costs per BOE from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were consistent with the three months ended June 30, 2010, while they increased by six percent during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The increase in United States production costs per BOE during the six months ended June 30, 2011 is primarily due to repairs associated with severe winter weather disruptions encountered during the first quarter of 2011 and inflation in well servicing costs, partially offset by the reduction in VPP delivery commitments.

Production and ad valorem taxes. The Company recorded production and ad valorem taxes of $35.9 million and $69.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $25.3 million and $52.4 million for the same respective periods of 2010. In general, production and ad valorem taxes are directly related to commodity price changes; however, Texas ad valorem taxes are based upon prior year commodity prices, whereas production taxes are based upon current year commodity prices. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company’s production and ad valorem taxes per BOE have, in the aggregate, increased 28 percent and 24 percent, primarily reflecting increasing commodity prices during the relevant periods, partially offset by a decline in per-BOE ad valorem taxes.

The following table provides the Company’s production and ad valorem taxes per BOE from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

	Three Months Ended June  30,				Six Months Ended June  30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
Ad valorem taxes	$	1.35	$	1.58	$	1.39	$	1.53
Production taxes		1.97		1.01		1.93		1.14
Total ad valorem and production taxes	$	3.32	$	2.59	$	3.32	$	2.67

Depletion, depreciation and amortization expense. The Company’s total DD&A expense was $153.9 million ($14.26 per BOE) and $294.3 million ($14.15 per BOE) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $144.3 million ($14.71 per BOE) and $288.7 million ($14.72 per BOE) during the same respective periods of 2010. The decrease in DD&A expense per BOE during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same respective periods of 2010, is primarily due to a decrease in depletion expense per BOE on oil and gas properties.

Depletion expense on oil and gas properties was $13.10 per BOE and $13.06 per BOE during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $13.89 per BOE and $13.95 per BOE during the same respective periods of 2010. The six percent decreases in per-BOE depletion expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are primarily due to increases in proved reserves as a result of the Company’s successful drilling program and higher first-day-of-the-month commodity prices during the 12-month period ending on June 30, 2011, which had the effect of extending the economic lives of proved properties.

Impairment of oil and gas properties. The Company reviews its long-lived assets to be held and used, including oil and gas properties, whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable from their estimated future cash flows.

The Company’s primary assumptions of the estimated future cash flows attributable to oil and gas properties are based on (i) proved reserves and risk-adjusted probable and possible reserves and (ii) management’s commodity price outlooks, which are based in part on forward market quotes.

Exploration and abandonments expense. The following tables provide the Company’s geological and geophysical costs, exploratory dry holes expense and lease abandonments and other exploration expense by geographic area for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands):

Leasehold abandonments and other		8,582			—		8,582
	$	39,465		$	126	$	39,591

The Company’s exploration and abandonment expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 is primarily comprised of acquisitions of 3-D seismic, geological and geophysical personnel costs and unproved property abandonments in the United States.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company drilled and evaluated 64 exploration/extension wells, all of which were successfully completed as discoveries. During the same period in 2010, the Company drilled and evaluated 11 exploration/extension wells, all of which were successfully completed as discoveries.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $44.6 million and $88.8 million, respectively, as compared to $40.4 million and $78.7 million during the same respective periods of 2010. The increase in general and administrative expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same periods of 2010, was primarily due to an increase in compensation expense related to hiring activities since June 30, 2010 in support of the Company’s capital expansion initiatives and vertical integration efforts, partially offset by an increase in producing, drilling, and other overhead recoveries. In support of these strategic growth initiatives, the Company anticipates continued growth in total employees and compensation-related expenses.

Accretion of discount on asset retirement obligations. Accretion of discount on asset retirement obligations was $2.7 million and $5.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $2.5 million and $5.4 million during the same respective periods of 2010. See Note H of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for information regarding the Company’s asset retirement obligations.

Interest expense. Interest expense was $45.8 million and $91.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $45.4 million and $92.9 million during the same respective periods of 2010. The $1.9 million decrease in interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period of 2010, is primarily due to a decrease in credit facility borrowings, partially offset by an increase in the weighted average interest rate. The weighted average interest rate on the Company’s indebtedness for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, including the effects of capitalized interest, was 7.3 percent, as compared to 7.0 percent and 6.9 percent for the same respective periods of 2010.

Derivative (gains) losses, net. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $229.5 million of net derivative gains on commodity price and interest rate derivatives. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, $221.2 million represented unrealized gains and $8.3 million represented realized gains. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $15.0 million of net derivative losses on commodity price and interest rate derivatives. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, $54.6 million represented unrealized losses and $39.6 million represented realized gains. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded $177.5 million and $443.0 million of net derivative gains. Derivative gains and losses result from changes in the fair values of the Company’s derivative contracts. See Notes D and G of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” and “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for additional information regarding the Company’s derivative activities and market risks associated with those activities.

Hurricane activity, net. Hurricane activity is associated with the Company’s East Cameron platform facility, located on the Gulf of Mexico shelf, which was destroyed during 2005 by Hurricane Rita. Operations to reclaim and abandon the East Cameron 322 facility began in 2006 and are substantially complete.

Other expense. Other expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $14.4 million and $32.3 million, respectively, as compared to $14.2 million and $30.1 million for the same respective periods of 2010. The increase in other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, is primarily attributable to a $5.7 million increase in unused gas transportation costs, partially offset by a $4.9 million decrease in charges recorded for the difference between Pioneer contracted rig rates and market rig rates that are charged to joint operations. The increase in other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, is primarily attributable to a $11.0 million increase in unused gas transportation costs and a $2.4 million charge associated with renewing the Company’s credit facility, partially offset by a $10.0 million decrease in above market drilling rig related costs. See Note P of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information.

Income tax provision. The Company recorded income tax provisions from continuing operations of $144.7 million and $97.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $83.2 million and $227.2 million during the same respective periods of 2010. The changes in the income tax provisions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same periods of 2010, are primarily due to noncash derivative gains and losses associated with mark-to-market accounting. The Company’s effective tax rate of 37 percent and 35 percent during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, excluding net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, are consistent with the Company’s combined United States federal and state statutory rate of approximately 37 percent.

See Note E of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the Company’s income taxes.

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax. The Company reported a loss from discontinued operations, net of tax of $1.6 million and income from discontinued operations, net of tax of $413.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to income from discontinued operations, net of tax of $41.9 million and $45.7 million for the same respective periods of 2010.

During February 2011, the Company completed the sale of 100 percent of the Company’s share holdings in Pioneer Tunisia to an unaffiliated party for net cash proceeds of $853.7 million, including normal post-closing adjustments, resulting in a pretax gain of $645.3 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, post-closing adjustments reduced the net gain on the transaction by $4.6 million.

The loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 is primarily comprised of the after tax impact of the aforementioned adjustment to net gain on the sale of Pioneer Tunisia. Discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 include the historical results of operations of Pioneer Tunisia. See Note Q of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for specific information regarding the Company’s discontinued operations.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $20.1 million and $15.3 million, respectively, as compared to net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $21.1 million and $36.5 million for the same respective periods of 2010. The $1.0 million and $21.2 million decreases in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the same respective periods in 2010, are primarily due to fluctuations in Pioneer Southwest’s mark-to-market derivative gains and losses. See Note B of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information regarding Pioneer Southwest and the Company’s noncontrolling interests.

Capital Commitments, Capital Resources and Liquidity

Capital commitments. The Company’s primary needs for cash are for capital expenditures and acquisition expenditures on oil and gas properties and related vertical integration assets and facilities, payment of contractual obligations, including EFS Midstream capital funding commitments, dividends/distributions and working capital obligations. Funding for these cash needs may be provided by any combination of internally-generated cash flow, proceeds from the disposition of nonstrategic assets or external financing sources as discussed in “Capital resources” below. The Company expects that it will be able to fund its needs for cash (excluding acquisitions) with internally-generated cash flows, cash on hand and with its liquidity under its credit facility, although no assurances can be given that such funding sources will be adequate to meet the Company’s future needs.

The Company generally strives to limit its capital expenditures to a level that allows the Company to deliver net cash flow from operating activities in excess of capital requirements in order to enhance and preserve financial flexibility. However, during 2011, the Company will redeploy a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Pioneer Tunisia to accelerate drilling in the Eagle Ford Shale, Spraberry and Barnett Shale Combo areas. During 2011, the Company’s capital budget will continue to focus on oil- and liquid-rich-gas drilling activities with total expenditures forecasted to be $2.1 billion (excluding effects of acquisitions, asset retirement obligations, capitalized interest, geological and geophysical administrative costs and EFS Midstream investments), consisting of $1.8 billion for drilling operations and $300 million for vertical integration and facilities. Based on results for the first half of 2011 and the forecasted production volumes and NYMEX commodity prices for the second half of 2011, the Company expects its cash flows from operating activities plus a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Pioneer Tunisia to be sufficient to fund its planned capital expenditures and contractual obligations. During the first six months of 2011, the Company’s costs incurred (excluding effects of acquisitions, asset retirement obligations, capitalized interest, geological and geophysical administrative costs and EFS Midstream investments) were $801.8 million, as compared to $399.0 million during the first six months of 2010. In addition, during the first six months of 2011, the Company paid $215.4 million for additions to other assets and other property and equipment, net, which includes amounts associated with vertical integration and facilities, as compared to $74.1 million during the fisrt six months of 2010.

Investing activities. Investing activities used $241.9 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to $238.4 million used during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The $3.5 million increase in net cash used by investing activities for the six months ending June 30, 2011, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to a $516.2 million increase in proceeds from disposition of assets due to the sale of Pioneer Tunisia, substantially offset by a $295.6 million increase in additions to oil and gas properties due to the Company’s increased drilling activities in 2011, a $141.3 million increase in additions to other assets and other property and equipment, primarily comprising purchases of drilling rigs, fracture stimulation equipment and well servicing

44

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

equipment, and an $82.7 million increase in investments in unconsolidated affiliates. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company’s expenditures for additions to oil and gas properties were funded by net cash provided by operating activities and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Pioneer Tunisia. During the same period in 2010, the Company’s expenditures for additions to oil and gas properties were funded by net cash provided by operating activities.

Dividends/distributions. During February of both 2011 and 2010, the Company’s board of directors (“the Board”) declared semiannual dividends of $0.04 per common share. Associated therewith, the Company paid $4.8 million of aggregate dividends during each of the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Future dividends are at the discretion of the Board, and, if declared, the Board may change the current dividend amount based on the Company’s liquidity and capital resources at the time.

During January 2011 and April 2011, the Pioneer Southwest board of directors (the “Pioneer Southwest Board”) declared quarterly distributions of $0.50 and $0.51 per limited partner unit, respectively, compared to the $0.50 per limited partner unit quarterly distribution declared in January and April 2010. Associated therewith, Pioneer Southwest paid aggregate distributions to noncontrolling unitholders of $12.7 million and $12.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. During July 2011, the Pioneer Southwest Board declared a quarterly distribution of $0.51 per limited partner unit for unitholders of record on August 1, 2011, payable August 11, 2011. Future distributions are at the discretion of the Pioneer Southwest Board, and, if declared, the Pioneer Southwest Board may change the current distribution amount based on Pioneer Southwest’s liquidity and capital resources at the time.

Contractual obligations, including off-balance sheet obligations. The Company’s contractual obligations include long-term debt, operating leases, drilling commitments, derivative obligations, other liabilities, transportation commitments, VPP obligations and EFS Midstream capital funding commitments. Additionally, the Company has entered into a gathering, treating and transportation agreement with EFS Midstream. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is obligated to deliver production from substantially all of the properties that the Company operates in the Eagle Ford Shale play to EFS Midstream for gathering, treating and transportation services over a 20-year contractual term, contingent upon EFS Midstream constructing the equipment necessary to perform the services. From time-to-time, the Company enters into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give rise to material off-balance sheet obligations of the Company. As of June 30, 2011, the material off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that the Company has entered into included (i) undrawn letters of credit, (ii) operating lease agreements, (iii) transportation commitments, (iv) open purchase commitments (v) VPP obligations (to physically deliver volumes and pay related lease operating expenses in the future) and (vi) contractual obligations for which the ultimate settlement amounts are not fixed and determinable, such as derivative contracts that are sensitive to future changes in commodity prices or interest rates. During June 2011, EFS Midstream entered into a $300 million, five-year revolving credit facility to fund infrastructure investments that are in excess of operating cash flow. Other than the off-balance sheet arrangements described above, the Company has no transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s liquidity or availability of or requirements for capital resources. Since December 31, 2010, the material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations include (i) a $30.7 million decrease in outstanding long-term debt, (ii) a $22.3 million decrease in the Company’s VPP obligations and (iii) a $46.5 million increase in the Company’s derivative liabilities.

In accordance with GAAP, the Company periodically measures and records certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The assets and liabilities that the Company periodically measures and records at fair value include trading securities, deferred compensation plan assets, commodity derivative contracts and interest rate derivative contracts. See Note D of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information regarding these assets and liabilities and the valuation techniques used to measure their fair values.

The Company’s commodity and interest rate derivative contracts that are periodically measured and recorded at fair value represent those derivatives that continue to be subject to market or credit risk. As of June 30, 2011, these contracts represented net assets of $112.4 million. The ultimate liquidation value of the Company’s commodity and interest rate derivatives that are subject to market risk will be dependent upon actual future commodity prices and interest rates, which may differ materially from the inputs used to determine the derivatives’ fair values as of June 30, 2011. See Note G of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” and “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for additional information about the Company’s derivative instruments and market risk.

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

Capital resources. The Company’s primary capital resources are net cash provided by operating activities, proceeds from sales of nonstrategic assets and proceeds from financing activities (principally borrowings under the Company’s credit facility). If internal cash flows and cash on hand do not meet the Company’s expectations, the Company may reduce its level of capital expenditures, reduce dividend payments, and/or fund a portion of its capital expenditures using borrowings under its credit facility, issuances of debt or equity securities or from other sources, such as asset sales.

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $564.5 million as compared to $693.2 million during the same period of 2010. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to the 2010 recovery of $119.3 million of excess royalty payments associated with properties that were sold by the Company during 2006, plus $35.3 million of associated interest, and operating cash flow from Pioneer Tunisia during 2010, partially offset by an increase in oil and NGL production and prices.

Asset divestitures. During February 2011, the Company completed the sale of 100 percent of the Company’s share holdings in Pioneer Tunisia to an unaffiliated third party for net cash proceeds of $853.7 million, including normal post-closing adjustments, resulting in a pretax gain of $645.3 million. The net cash proceeds from the sale of Pioneer Tunisia were determined in accordance with the sale and purchase agreement that the Company entered into with the purchaser, which provided for certain customary adjustments for matters occurring after the effective date of the sale, such as capital contributions and distributions, and working capital adjustments. Adjustments to net cash proceeds involve management’s best estimate about the realizable value of working capital items, including that the amounts are reasonably assured of collection. Differences between actual working capital amounts and management’s estimates recorded as of June 30, 2011, if any, will be recorded as income or loss from discontinued operations in future periods. See Note Q of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for information regarding the Company’s discontinued operations.

During the first six months of 2010, the Company’s asset divestitures included the completion of the Eagle Ford Shale joint venture transactions for net proceeds of $272.0 million, the sale of certain Uinta/Piceance proved and unproved oil and gas properties for $11.8 million of net proceeds and the collection of certain Tunisia past cost receivables. See Note N of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for information regarding the Company’s divestitures.

Financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $81.3 million and $284.5 million, respectively. The $203.2 million decrease in cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to (i) a $197.9 million decline in net payments on long-term debt and (ii) a $23.8 million increase in excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements, partially offset by (iii) a $25.8 million increase in treasury shares purchased to satisfy withholding tax payments related to the vesting of employee share-based awards.

During March 2011, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated 5-Year Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of financial institutions that matures in March 2016, unless extended in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility replaces the Company’s Amended and Restated 5-Year Revolving Credit Agreement entered into in April 2007 (the “expired Credit Facility”) and provides for aggregate loan commitments of $1.25 billion. See Note F of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for information about the available loans, interest rates and debt covenant terms of the Credit Facility.

The Company’s stock price during March 2011 caused the Company’s 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes to be convertible at the option of the holders during the three months ended June 30, 2011. Associated therewith, holders of 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes tendered $70 thousand principal amount of the notes for conversion during the three months ended June 30, 2011. During July and August 2011, the Company paid the holders a total of $71 thousand of cash and issued 340 shares of the Company’s common stock. During June 2011, the Company’s stock price performance did not qualify the 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes for conversion at the option of the holders for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The Company’s 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes may become convertible in future quarters depending on the Company’s stock price performance or under certain other conditions. The Company intends to fund the cash portion of future conversion payments, if any, with cash on hand and borrowings under the Credit Facility. See Note F of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for more information about the Company’s 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes.

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

As the Company pursues its strategy, it may utilize various financing sources, including, to the extent available, fixed and floating rate debt, convertible securities, preferred stock or common stock. The Company may also issue securities in exchange for oil and gas properties, stock or other interests in other oil and gas companies or related assets. Additional securities may be of a class preferred to common stock with respect to such matters as dividends and liquidation rights and may also have other rights and preferences as determined by the Board.

Liquidity. The Company’s principal sources of short-term liquidity are cash on hand and unused borrowing capacity under its Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its Credit Facility and was in compliance with all of its debt covenants. After adjusting for $65.1 million of undrawn and outstanding letters of credit under its Credit Facility, the Company had approximately $1.2 billion of unused borrowing capacity as of June 30, 2011. If internal cash flows and cash on hand do not meet the Company’s expectations, the Company may reduce its level of capital expenditures, reduce dividend payments, and/or fund a portion of its capital expenditures using borrowings under its Credit Facility, issuances of debt or equity securities or from other sources, such as asset sales. The Company cannot provide any assurance that needed short-term or long-term liquidity will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Although the Company expects that internal operating cash flows, cash on hand and borrowing capacity under the Company’s Credit Facility will be adequate to fund 2011 capital expenditures and dividend/distribution payments and provide adequate liquidity to fund other needs, no assurances can be given that such funding sources will be adequate to meet the Company’s future needs. For instance, the amount that the Company may borrow under the Credit Facility in the future could be reduced as a result of lower oil, NGL or gas prices, among other items.

Debt ratings. The Company receives debt credit ratings from several of the major ratings agencies, which are subject to regular reviews. The Company believes that each of the rating agencies considers many factors in determining the Company’s ratings including: production growth opportunities, liquidity, debt levels, asset composition and proved reserve mix. A reduction in the Company’s debt ratings could negatively impact the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing or the interest rate, fees and other terms associated with such additional financing.

Book capitalization and current ratio. The Company’s net book capitalization at June 30, 2011 was $7 billion, consisting of $352.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, debt of $2.6 billion and stockholders’ equity of $4.8 billion. The Company’s net debt to net book capitalization was 32 percent and 37 percent at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The Company’s ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.42 to 1.00 at June 30, 2011 as compared to 1.56 to 1.00 at December 31, 2010.

New accounting pronouncements. The effects of new accounting pronouncements are discussed in Note B of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements.”

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The following quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are supplementary to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures provided in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. As such, the information contained herein should be read in conjunction with the related disclosures in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The primary objective of the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about the Company’s potential exposure to market risks. The term “market risks,” insofar as it relates to currently anticipated transactions of the Company, refers to the risk of loss arising from changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. These disclosures are not meant to be precise indicators of expected future losses, but rather indicators of reasonably possible losses. This forward-looking information provides indicators of how the Company views and manages ongoing market risk exposures. All of the Company’s market risk sensitive instruments are entered into for purposes other than speculation.

The following table reconciles the changes that occurred in the fair values of the Company’s open derivative contracts during the six months ending 2011:

	Derivative Contract Net Assets
	Commodities			Interest Rates			Total
	(in thousands)
Fair value of contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2010	$	167,567		$	17,552		$	185,119

Contract maturities		(52,729	)		(5,029	)		(57,758	)
Fair value of contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2011	$	87,461		$	24,946		$	112,407

(a) At inception, new derivative contracts entered into by the Company had no intrinsic value.

Interest rate sensitivity. See Note F of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” and Capital Commitments, Capital Resources and Liquidity included in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for information regarding debt transactions.

PIONEER NATURAL RESOURCES COMPANY

The following table provides information about financial instruments to which the Company was a party as of June 30, 2011 and that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For debt obligations, the table presents maturities by expected maturity dates, the weighted average interest rates expected to be paid on the debt given current contractual terms and market conditions and the debt’s estimated fair value. For fixed rate debt, the weighted average interest rate represents the contractual fixed rates that the Company was obligated to periodically pay on the debt as of June 30, 2011. For variable rate debt, the average interest rate represents the average rates being paid on the debt projected forward proportionate to the forward yield curve for LIBOR on August 2, 2011.

(a) Represents maturities of principal amounts excluding debt issuance discounts and premiums and net deferred fair value hedge losses. The Company’s $480.0 million of 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes do not qualify for redemption during the third quarter of 2011, as disclosed in Note F of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements.”

(b) During July 2011, the Company terminated the $470 million notional amount of fixed-for-variable interest rate derivatives and received $26.1 million of proceeds.

(c) Represents weighted average notional contract amounts of interest rate derivatives.

Commodity derivative instruments and price sensitivity. The following table provides information about the Company’s oil, NGL, gas and diesel derivative financial instruments that were sensitive to changes in oil, NGL, gas and diesel fuel prices as of June 30, 2011. Although mitigated by the Company’s derivative activities, declines in oil, NGL and gas prices would reduce the Company’s revenues and increases in diesel prices would increase the Company’s internally-provided workover, capital and related services costs.

The Company manages commodity price risk with derivative contracts, such as swap contracts, collar contracts and collar contracts with short put options. Swap contracts provide a fixed price for a notional amount of sales volumes. Collar contracts provide minimum (“floor” or “long put”) and maximum (“ceiling”) prices on a notional amount of sales volumes, thereby allowing some price participation if the relevant index price closes above the floor price. Collar contracts with short put options differ from other collar contracts by virtue of the short put option price, below which the Company’s realized price will exceed the variable market prices by the long put-to-short put price differential.

See Note G of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for a description of the accounting procedures followed by the Company relative to its derivative financial instruments and for specific information regarding the terms of the Company’s derivative financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in oil, NGL, gas or diesel prices.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated, as required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to the legal proceeding described in Note J of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements.” The Company is also party to other proceedings and claims incidental to its business. While many of these other matters involve inherent uncertainty, the Company believes that the amount of the liability, if any, ultimately incurred with respect to such other proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position as a whole or on its liquidity, capital resources or future annual results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K under the headings “Part I Item 1. Business – Competition, Markets and Regulations,” “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” which risks could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results. Except as set forth below, there has been no material change in the Company’s risk factors from those described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recently Proposed Rules Regulating Air Emissions from Oil and Gas Operations Could Cause the Company to Incur Increased Capital Expenditures and Operating Costs

On July 28, 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) proposed rules that would establish new air emission controls for oil and gas production and gas processing operations. Specifically, the EPA’s proposed rule package includes New Source Performance Standards to address emissions of sulfur dioxide and volatile organic compounds (“VOCs”) and a separate set of emission standards to address hazardous air pollutants frequently associated with oil and gas production and processing activities. The EPA’s proposal would require the reduction of VOC emissions from oil and gas production facilities by mandating the use of “green completions” for hydraulic fracturing, which requires the operator to recover rather than vent the gas and NGLs that come to the surface during completion of the fracturing process. The proposed rules also would establish specific requirements regarding emissions from compressors, dehydrators, storage tanks and other production equipment. In addition, the rules would establish new leak detection requirements for gas processing plants. The EPA will receive public comment and hold hearings regarding the proposed rules and must take final action on them by February 28, 2012. If finalized, these rules could require a number of modifications to the Company’s operations including the installation of new equipment. Compliance with such rules could result in significant costs, including increased capital expenditures and operating costs, and could adversely impact the Company’s business.

The Company is growing production in areas of high industry activity, which may impact its ability to obtain the personnel, equipment, services, resources and facilities access needed to complete its development activities as planned or result in increased costs.

The Company’s strategy is to expand drilling activity in areas in which industry activity has increased rapidly, particularly in the Spraberry Trend area, the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas and the Barnett Shale Combo play in North Texas. As a result, demand for personnel, equipment, hydraulic fracturing, water and other services and resources, as well as access to transportation, processing and refining facilities in these areas has increased, as has the costs for those items. A delay or inability to secure the personnel, equipment, services, resources and facilities access necessary for the Company to complete its development activities as planned could result in a rate of oil and gas production below the rate forecasted, and significant increases in costs would impact the Company’s profitability.

These risks are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that it currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results.
