NEWS RELEASE

 

Halcón Resources Announces Third Quarter 2014 Results and Provides Preliminary 2015 Outlook

 

Company Preliminarily Guiding to 15-20% Pro Forma Production Growth in 2015 with Reduced Drilling & Completion Budget of $750-800 Million

 

Halcón Cutting Five Rigs Originally Planned for 2015

 

HOUSTON, TEXAS — November 10, 2014 — Halcón Resources Corporation (NYSE:HK) (“Halcón” or the “Company”) today announced its third quarter 2014 results and provided a preliminary 2015 outlook.

 

Halcón generated revenues of $306.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  Production increased 16% quarter over prior year quarter to an average of 43,554 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boe/d).  Third quarter 2014 production was 82% oil, 8% natural gas liquids (NGLs) and 10% natural gas.

 

Excluding the impact of hedges, the Company realized 90% of the average NYMEX oil price, 34% of the average NYMEX oil price for NGLs and 88% of the average NYMEX natural gas price during the period.

 

Total operating costs per unit, after adjusting for selected items (see Selected Operating Data table for additional information), decreased by 17% to $23.50 per Boe in the third quarter of 2014, compared to the third quarter of 2013.

 

Halcón reported net income available to common stockholders of $186.9 million, or $0.36 per diluted share for the quarter.  After adjusting for selected items primarily related to the non-cash impact of derivatives (see Selected Item Review and Reconciliation table for additional information), net income was $10.9 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Floyd C. Wilson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We had another solid quarter in both of our core plays and announced our preliminary outlook for 2015 today.  That outlook is driven by our view that the service cost side of our business is out-of-sync with crude oil prices.  As a result, we are electing to reduce spending next year while still preserving our

 



 

ability to grow production year-over-year.  While we are substantially hedged through 2015 and into 2016, we believe that the precipitous drop in crude prices calls for conservatism.  We will remain flexible and are prepared to adjust our 2015 capital program as future events dictate.”

 

Liquidity and Capital Spending

 

As previously disclosed, the borrowing base on the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility was increased by $350 million to $1.05 billion during the third quarter of 2014.   This increase was driven by positive results from Halcón’s ongoing drilling program in the Williston Basin and the El Halcón area.

 

The Company’s liquidity as of September 30, 2014 was approximately $815 million, which consisted of cash on hand plus undrawn capacity on its senior secured revolving credit facility.

 

During the third quarter of 2014, Halcón incurred capital costs of $322.0 million on drilling and completions, $11.3 million on infrastructure/seismic and $2.9 million for leasehold acquisitions, net of $14.3 million in divestiture proceeds largely related to post-closing adjustments for the East Texas assets sold in the second quarter of 2014.  In addition, the Company incurred $49.8 million for capitalized interest, G&A and other.

 

Operational Update

 

Halcón is currently operating eight rigs across its holdings and expects to deliver annual production towards the high end of the previously disclosed full year 2014 production guidance range of 40 – 42 MBoe/d.  Drilling and completion results continue to improve, and there are currently 18 wells being completed or waiting on completion.

 

Bakken/Three Forks — Up and to the Right

 

Halcón operated an average of three rigs in the Williston Basin during the quarter.  The following table contains detailed third quarter 2014 operated well data related to the Company’s Williston Basin assets:

One of the wells put online in the Fort Berthold area during the quarter had an initial production rate of 4,381 Boe/d, yet another new record in the play for Halcón.  The Company

also participated in 60 non-operated wells with an average working interest of approximately 4% during the quarter.  On average, wells put online during the third quarter of 2014 are outperforming Halcón’s type curves for each area (801 MBoe in Fort Berthold/477 MBoe in Williams County).

 

The Company continues to focus on improving economics in the play.  Halcón is lowering completed well costs without impacting initial production or estimated ultimate recoveries, via efficiencies associated with pad drilling/simultaneous operations and completion modifications (proppant type, fluid type, pumping services).

 

Based on the ongoing implementation of drilling and completion modifications combined with successful downspacing tests, results continue to improve and the Company is moving forward with spacing of 660’ to 880’ between wells, depending on location within the field.

 

Halcón is an active participant in the North Dakota gas flaring discussions.  The Company continues to make progress towards increasing gas capture.  Halcón reduced the amount of gas it flared by approximately 50% during the third quarter.  The Company is currently flaring approximately 25% of its gas production in the Williston Basin and expectations are for continued improvement over time.

 

Halcón is the operator of 169 producing Bakken wells and 51 Three Forks wells.  The Company currently has 7 Bakken wells and 3 Three Forks wells being completed or waiting on completion on its operated acreage.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2014, Halcón expects to spud 8 to 10 gross operated wells in the Williston Basin with three rigs and plans to participate in 65 to 70 non-operated wells with an average working interest of approximately 5%.

 

“El Halcón” - East Texas Eagle Ford Exceeding Expectations

 

The Company operated an average of three rigs in El Halcón during the third quarter.  The following table contains detailed third quarter 2014 operated well data related to Halcón’s East Texas Eagle Ford assets:

Drilling efficiencies continue to be realized and completion modifications are ongoing.  Halcón continues to work to find the most economic completed lateral length and is currently targeting 7,000’ to 8,000’, where the unit configuration allows.

 

Industry activity remains high in the play and there are currently more than 25 rigs running.  Based on its own results combined with results from offset operators, the Company believes its entire acreage position has been de-risked.  Halcón’s current drilling program is designed to capture leases and hold acreage over the next 12 to 18 months.  Completed well costs are expected to decrease by up to $1 million per well once the Company transitions into development mode.

 

Halcón has approximately 101,000 net acres leased in El Halcón, all of which are believed to be located in the core of the play.  There are currently 78 Halcón-operated East Texas Eagle Ford wells producing and 6 Halcón-operated wells being completed or waiting on completion.

 

The Company expects to spud 10 to 12 gross operated wells in the play with an average of three rigs during the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

Tuscaloosa Marine Shale (“TMS”) — Delineation Ongoing

 

Halcón operated an average of two rigs in the TMS and participated in six wells (three operated/three non-operated) that were brought online during the third quarter.  These six wells had an average lateral length of approximately 6,150’ and achieved an average initial production rate of approximately 1,165 Boe/d (89% oil).  The average 30-day production rate for these six wells was approximately 895 Boe/d (90% oil).

 

During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company expects to spud two gross operated wells (~88% avg. WI) in the play with two rigs and plans to participate in four to five non-operated wells (~10% avg. WI).

 

Hedging Strategy and Update

 

Halcón’s hedging strategy is designed to support its capital program and protect its cash flow.  The Company continues to target a hedge portfolio in which approximately 80% of expected production is hedged in an opportunistic manner for the next 18 to 24 months.  The table below sets forth Halcón’s current hedge positions.

Preliminary 2015 Outlook

 

In response to lower oil prices, the Company expects to operate six rigs in 2015, five rigs less than originally planned.  Halcón’s preliminary drilling and completion budget for 2015 is $750 to $800 million.  Despite the reduced capital budget, the Williston Basin and El Halcón assets are expected to drive year-over-year pro forma production growth of 15% to 20% in 2015.

(1)    Represents charges related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with decreases in the Company’s borrowing base under its senior revolving credit facility.

(2)    For the 2014 columns, represents the tax impact using an estimated tax rate of 36.16%.  These columns also include an adjustment for the change in the valuation allowance of $(78.9 million) and $(27.7 million) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. For the 2013 columns, included is $84.2 million associated with the writeoff of goodwill which is non-deductible for income tax purposes.

(3)    Net income (loss) and earnings per share excluding selected items and cash flow from operations before changes in working capital adjusted for selected items are non-GAAP measures. These financial measures are presented based on management’s belief that they will enable a user of the financial information to understand the impact of these items on reported results. Additionally, this presentation provides a beneficial comparison to similarly adjusted measurements of prior periods.  These financial measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, earnings per share and cash flow from operations, as defined by GAAP.  These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures that other companies may use and may not be useful in comparing the performance of those companies to Halcón’s performance.

(4)    The impact of selected items for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 was calculated based upon weighted average diluted shares of 427.8 million and 423.0 million, respectively, due to the adjusted net income available to common stockholders, excluding selected items. The impact of selected items for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was calculated based upon weighted average diluted shares of 462.8 million and 450.7 million, respectively, due to the adjusted net income available to common stockholders, excluding selected items.
