RAM ENERGY RESOURCES REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2010 RESULTS

-  
RAM Reports 2Q 2010 Net Income of $2.7 Million, or $0.03 per share
-  
2Q 2010 Free Cash Flow of $7.2 Million, or $0.09 Per Share

Tulsa, Oklahoma – RAM Energy Resources, Inc. (Nasdaq: RAME) today announced second quarter 2010 earnings and financial highlights.

RAM Reports 2Q 2010 Net Income of $2.7 Million

For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, RAM reported net income of $2.7 million, or $0.03 per share, based on 78.4 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding compared to a loss of $13.3 million, or $0.18 a share, on 74.7 million shares outstanding in the year-ago quarter.  Adjusted net income for the second quarter was $889,000, or $0.01 per share.  The calculation of adjusted net income excludes the after tax impact of unrealized, non-cash, mark-to-market (MTM) gains associated with oil and natural gas derivatives covering future periods and non-cash legal reserve valuation changes.  Adjusted net income in the last year’s second quarter totaled $1.5 million, or $0.02 per share, after excluding the tax affected impact of unrealized MTM losses.

Modified EBITDA and Free Cash Flow

Modified EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $12.5 million for the second quarter, compared with $20.3 million in last year’s quarter which was aided by realized derivative gains of $10.7 million. Similarly, free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) was $7.2 million, or $0.09 per share, for this year’s second quarter compared to $16.9 million, or $0.23 per share, in last year’s second quarter.

Commodity Prices and Revenues

Second quarter production totaled 549 thousand barrel of oil equivalents (BOE),  down 3% sequentially from first quarter 2010 production of 566 thousand BOE, principally the result of a shortage of fracturing and stimulation crews and equipment which delayed initiation of production from wells drilled in South Texas, combined with natural production declines and weather related disruptions.  Second quarter 2010 production was down 16% compared to the 652 thousand BOE in the second quarter 2009.

The company’s realized price for oil increased 35% to an average of $75.57 per barrel in the second quarter of 2010 compared with last year’s second quarter average realized price of $55.98 per barrel.  Similarly, the company’s realized price for natural gas rose 28% to an average of $3.92 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) compared to an average of $3.06 per Mcf  in the second quarter of 2009.  In addition, the price of NGLs grew 44%, averaging $36.04 per barrel for this year’s second quarter.  The positive impact from the 38% increase in total average price per BOE in the second quarter of 2010 more than offset the decline in production, allowing oil and gas revenue for the second quarter to grow to $27.2 million, compared to $ 23.5 million in the year ago second quarter.

Net derivative activity was relatively modest, resulting in a net $1.7 million gain in the second quarter 2010 and was comprised of realized losses from contract settlements and premium costs of $707,000 and unrealized MTM gains of $2.4 million. As a result, total revenues for the quarter rose to $29.0 million compared to total revenues of $10.4 million in last year’s second quarter.  Net derivative activity in last year’s second quarter totaled a net $13.1 million loss, as the combination of $10.7 million of realized gains was more than offset by unrealized losses of $23.8 million.  These net derivative losses effectively offset a substantial portion of the 2009 quarter’s oil and gas revenue of $23.5 million, reducing total revenues to $10.4 million .

Costs and Expenses

Production expenses were $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2010, 5% below the $9.1 million in the previous year’s quarter.  Production taxes were $1.5 million in this year’s second quarter, up 57% compared to production taxes of $927,000 in the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher hydrocarbon prices during 2010 and due to retroactive severance tax refunds granted during the year-ago quarter.  General and administrative expenses of $4.0 million were 7% higher than those expenses in last year’s second quarter of $3.7 million principally due to higher employee-related costs.  The company continues to focus on the containment of administrative costs despite a higher level of oilfield activity and capital budget in the current yea r.

Long-Term Debt and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2010, RAM’s outstanding borrowings under its credit facility totaled $245.0 million, of which term debt was $112.5 million and $132.5 million was drawn on its revolver, which is currently subject to a $175.0 million borrowing base.  Outstanding borrowings at June 30 last year totaled $255.4 million.

Interest expense for the second quarter 2010 was $5.7 million compared to $3.6 million in the year-ago quarter.  Similarly, the blended interest rate on borrowings was 8.2% in the second quarter compared to the blended rate in last year’s quarter of 5.7%.   The increase in interest expense and higher blended interest rate is due to the company entering into an amendment to its credit facility in June 2009 which increased the interest rate of its term and revolver debt in exchange for increased financial flexibility.

Six Month 2010 Results

Six month production totaled 1.1 million BOE, down 15% from production in the first half of 2009 of 1.3 million BOE, resulting primarily from weather-related interruptions in both the first and second quarters of 2010, natural production declines and a shortage of fracturing and stimulation crews and equipment which delayed bringing South Texas wells online.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $5.1 million, or $0.07 per share compared to a loss of $42.6 million, or $0.56 per share in the year-ago period. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) for the first half of 2010 was $18.5 million, or $0.24 per share, compared to $25.0 million, or $0.33 per share, for the same period last year.

Free cash flow funded capital expenditures of $18.7 million made during the first six months of the year.  Similarly, modified EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $28.2 million for the first half of 2010 compared to $32.1 million for the same period last year.

Modified EBITDA Revision to Range of $55 - $58 Million

Weather-related production interruptions combined with the delays in bringing South Texas production online in a timely manner as a result of a shortage of crews and equipment to provide fracture and stimulation services in the first half of the year has contributed to a revision in production expectations to a range of 2.2 – 2.3 million BOE for the year from prior expectations of a range of 2.5 – 2.6 million BOE.  Because of these reduced expectations for volumes and the company’s outlook for hydrocarbon prices and cost of operations for the second half of the current year, RAM is also reducing its guidance for modified EBITDA to a range of $55 - $58 million  for the 2010 year from the previously disclosed range of $65 - $68 million.

RAM Energy Resources, Inc.
Modified EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Net Income
 ( non-GAAP measures)
(unaudited)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Modified EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is determined by adding the following to net income (loss): interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, accretion, share-based compensation, impairment charges, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives and legal settlement changes.  Free cash flow is also a non-GAAP measure representing Modified EBITDA after adjustments for the cash portion of interest and income taxes.  Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure which excludes the income tax affected impact of unrealized derivative gains or losses, MTM settlement charges and impairment charges on GAAP income. These non-GAAP measures are presented because management believes it is a useful adjunct to cash provided by operating activities under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP).  ; These non-GAAP measures are widely accepted as financial indicators of an oil and gas company’s ability to generate cash used to internally fund exploration and development activities and fund debt service costs. These non-GAAP measures are not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash provided (used) by operating, investing, or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows, or as a measure of liquidity.
