Management Commentary
Thomas L. Carter, Jr., Black Stone Minerals’ Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, commented, "The second quarter was another strong quarter for Black Stone Minerals and we are performing well on a number of fronts. We are raising our production guidance for the full year to a midpoint of 45 MBoe/d, which implies continued production growth in the back half of the year off a very strong first six months. We're seeing a lot of activity on our acreage in the first half of 2018, which puts us on pace to handily beat the number of wells we added in 2017. I'd also add that our undeveloped acreage continues to attract interest from industry as demonstrated by the nearly $12 million in lease bonus we collected in the quarter. Based on our strong operational and financial performance, we are increasing the distribution for both common and subordinated units to an annualized rate of $1.35 per unit while retaining a healthy amount of cash flow to support the growth of the business. Based on our closing price as of Friday, that equates to a current distribution yield of 7.9%, and our distributable cash flow yield is 10.0% which is well in excess of that of our direct peers. I think Black Stone represents a tremendous opportunity for long-term investors who want exposure to diverse, actively managed mineral and royalty assets."
Quarterly Financial and Operating Results
Production
Black Stone reported average production of 44.7 MBoe/d (69% mineral and royalty, 71% natural gas) for the second quarter of 2018. This represents an increase of 20% over average production of 37.3 MBoe/d for the corresponding period in 2017 and is 5% higher than average daily production in the first quarter of 2018. Oil production for the period was essentially flat with record levels reported in the first quarter of 2018. Natural gas production increased by 9% from the first quarter of 2018 due in large part to a significant number of East Texas Haynesville/Bossier wells being turned to sales in the second quarter, including the last wells not covered by the Partnership's farmout arrangements in the Shelby Trough.
Realized Prices, Revenues, and Net Income
The Partnership’s average realized price per Boe, excluding the effect of derivative settlements, was $32.22 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. This represents a 3% decrease from the preceding quarter and is 26% higher than the $25.67 per Boe reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.
Black Stone reported oil and gas revenues of $131.1 million (59% oil and condensate) for the second quarter of 2018, an increase of 50% from $87.2 million for the second quarter of 2017. This increase in oil and gas revenue was driven by the aforementioned increases in reported production volumes and realized pricing. Oil and gas revenue in the first quarter of 2018 was $126.2 million.
The Partnership recognized a loss on commodity derivative instruments of $33.3 million in the second quarter of 2018, composed of a $6.3 million loss from realized settlements during the quarter and a $27.1 million unrealized loss that reflects the change in value of the Partnership’s derivative positions during the quarter. In the second quarter of 2017, the Partnership reported a gain on commodity derivative instruments of $22.0 million which reflected a significant unrealized gain in the quarter.
Black Stone recognized $11.6 million in lease bonus and other income in the second quarter of 2018, led by leasing activity in the Midland and Delaware basins in West Texas with additional leases written in the Bakken/Three Forks in North Dakota, the Austin Chalk in East Texas, and the Louisiana portion of the Haynesville/Bossier trend. The Partnership reported $11.4 million in lease bonus and other income in the same period in 2017.
The Partnership reported net income of $28.7 million, which includes the non-cash derivative loss described above, for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, compared to net income of $54.2 million in the corresponding period in 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow
Black Stone reported new quarterly records as a public company for both Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow in the second quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA was $100.3 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to $74.7 million for the corresponding quarter in 2017 and $95.0 million in the first quarter of 2018. Distributable cash flow for the second quarter of 2018 was $87.2 million, an increase of 32% from the $66.3 million reported in the second quarter of 2017 and a 5% increase from the $83.4 million in the first quarter of 2018. The Partnership expects to distribute approximately $68 million to unitholders with respect to the second quarter with the balance invested in the continued growth of the business.
Financial Position
As of June 30, 2018, the Partnership had $7.1 million in cash and $421.0 million outstanding under its credit facility. As of August 3, 2018 and taking into account the acquisitions closed subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the Partnership had $395.0 million outstanding under the credit facility and $18.9 million in cash, providing $223.9 million in available liquidity. Black Stone Minerals is in compliance with all financial covenants associated with its credit facility.
Hedge Position
Black Stone has commodity derivative contracts in place covering portions of its anticipated production for the remainder of 2018 as well as 2019 and 2020. For the balance of 2018, approximately 72% of expected oil volumes are hedged at prices averaging $55.23 per barrel and approximately 73% of expected gas volumes are hedged at prices averaging $3.01 per Mcf through the use of swaps. For 2019, the Partnership has used swaps to hedge 645 MBbl of oil per quarter at prices averaging $58.43 per barrel and an average of 7,250 MMcf of natural gas per quarter at an average price of $2.86 per Mcf. For 2020, Black Stone has entered into costless collars covering 150 MBbl per quarter at a range of $55.00 to $65.75 per barrel. More detailed information about the Partnership's existing hedge position can be found in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2018, which is expected to be filed on or around August 7, 2018.
Acquisitions
Black Stone acquired $26.5 million of properties for cash in the second quarter of 2018. Included in that amount was a $14.6 million mineral package with assets located in the Midland and Delaware basins. Additionally, the Partnership spent $11.9 million in cash to further consolidate its acreage position in the Shelby Trough area in East Texas.
Subsequent to quarter end, Black Stone closed on the acquisition of approximately $17 million of additional mineral and royalty assets, which included $10.8 million of assets which share common underlying properties as those acquired in the Noble Acquisition that was completed in late 2017. Year to date, the Partnership has acquired over $75 million of mineral and royalty properties.
Development Capital Expenditures
The Partnership invested a net total of $4.4 million in development capital (working interest participation and drilling activities) during the second quarter of 2018, inclusive of $23.0 million in reimbursements from farmout partners. As a result of the previously announced farmouts with Canaan Resource Partners and Pivotal Petroleum Partners, substantially all capital expenditures made by Black Stone to drill and complete Haynesville/Bossier wells in the Shelby Trough area of East Texas are reimbursed by those partners. The vast majority of net development capital for the quarter relates to activity related to the delineation of the PepperJack prospect in Hardin and Liberty counties, Texas.
Through the first six months of 2018, the Partnership invested a total of $32.6 million in net development capital expenditures. Black Stone spent $20.7 million in the first half of 2018 on working interest participation capital related primarily to Haynesville/Bossier development in the Shelby Trough, net of farmout reimbursements. Black Stone also spent $11.9 million in the first half of 2018 delineating its PepperJack prospect targeting the Lower Wilcox formation. The PepperJack A#1 well was drilled and logged during the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2018. The Partnership believes the well is highly prospective and will be completed as a commercially productive well. The PepperJack B#1 well was a significant step-out from the PepperJack A#1 well, and was drilled and logged during the second quarter of 2018. Black Stone does not believe this well will be completed in the near term and accordingly recognized $6.7 million of exploration expense in the second quarter of 2018 for the costs associated with the PepperJack B#1. The Partnership is in active negotiations with industry operating partners for third-party development of the PepperJack prospect.
Given the current farmout agreements in place, the Partnership expects negligible development capital expenditures related to working interest participation for the remainder of 2018.
Distributions
The Board of Directors of the general partner (the "Board") has approved cash distributions attributable to the second quarter of 2018 of $0.3375 per unit for both common and subordinated units. This represents an approximate 8% increase to the distribution for common unitholders from the previous quarter. The quarterly distribution coverage ratio attributable to the second quarter of 2018 was approximately 1.3x for all units. Distributions will be payable on August 23, 2018 to unitholders of record on August 16, 2018.

1 | As a mineral-and-royalty-interest owner, Black Stone Minerals is often provided insufficient and inconsistent data on natural gas liquid ("NGL") volumes by its operators. As a result, the Partnership is unable to reliably determine the total volumes of NGLs associated with the production of natural gas on its acreage. Accordingly, no NGL volumes are included in our reported production; however, revenue attributable to NGLs is included in natural gas revenue and the calculation of realized prices for natural gas. |

Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by our management and external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts, and others, to assess the financial performance of our assets and our ability to sustain distributions over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization adjusted for impairment of oil and natural gas properties, accretion of asset retirement obligations, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivative instruments, and non-cash equity-based compensation. We define distributable cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA plus or minus amounts for certain non-cash operating activities, estimated replacement capital expenditures, cash interest expense, and distributions to noncontrolling interests and preferred unitholders.
Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States as measures of our financial performance.
Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.
