On January 21, 2005, EXCO Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation (“EXCO”), filed a Form 8-K (the “Prior Form 8-K”) under Item 1.01 thereto to announce that EXCO’s Board had approved the Share and Debt Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated effective January 12, 2005, among 1143928 Alberta Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Alberta (“Purchaser”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAL Oil & Gas Trust, an Alberta trust, EXCO and Taurus Acquisition, Inc., a Texas corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of EXCO (“Taurus”).  This Amendment No. 1 to the Prior Form 8-K amends and supplements the Prior Form 8-K as follows:

 

Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

See Item 2.01 below for a discussion of the consummation of the Purchase Agreement on February 10, 2005.  At that closing the Agreement was amended pursuant to that certain First Amending Agreement to the Purchase Agreement (the “First Amending Agreement,” and together with the Agreement, the “Purchase Agreement”), among EXCO, Purchaser and Taurus. The First Amending Agreement amended the Agreement to, among other things, increase the amount of one of the promissory notes Taurus agreed to sell to Purchaser from Cdn. $97,874,177.10 to Cdn. $108,325,788.83 to reflect the principal amount then-outstanding on the note.  A copy of the First Amending Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.01  Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On February 10, 2005, EXCO completed the sale to Purchaser of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Subsidiary Stock”) of its Calgary-based Canadian operating subsidiary, Addison Energy Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Alberta and a wholly-owned subsidiary of EXCO (“Addison”) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.  In addition, Taurus sold to Purchaser a promissory note in the amount of U.S. $98,800,167.66 and a promissory note in the amount of Cdn. $108,325,788.83 (collectively, the “Notes”), each of which were issued by Addison in favor of Taurus.  The closing on February 10, 2005 of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “Addison Disposition”.

 

The aggregate purchase price for the Subsidiary Stock and the Notes paid at closing was approximately Cdn. $553.3 million.  EXCO deposited into escrow approximately Cdn. $56.9 million for Canadian tax withholding.

 

Prior to the closing of the Purchase Agreement, Addison paid an earnings and profits dividend (as calculated under U.S. tax law) to EXCO in an amount equal to Cdn. $74.5 million, subject to Canadian tax withholding, or net proceeds of U.S. $56.6 million.

 

In accordance with the terms of the Indenture, dated as of January 20, 2004, as subsequently amended (as amended, the “Indenture”), among EXCO, as issuer, Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee, and various subsidiaries of EXCO, as guarantors, governing EXCO’s 7¼% Senior Notes due 2011, the security interest of the noteholders in two-thirds of the common stock of Addison was released and a second lien security interest (behind the first lien security interest of EXCO’s U. S. revolving credit facility lenders) was effected in U.S. $120.6 million which represents two-thirds of the net cash proceeds of the sale of the Addison stock.  An additional U.S. $75.9 million of Addison Disposition proceeds were applied to pay down temporarily EXCO’s U.S. credit facility to a nominal amount.  The remaining Addison Disposition proceeds of U.S. $130.3 have been invested in permitted short-term investments.

 

On February 10, 2005, EXCO also issued a press release announcing that the Addison Disposition was complete.  The press release is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

 

                The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2004 is based upon the historical balance sheet of EXCO Resources, Inc. (EXCO) as of September 30, 2004 and gives effect to the sale of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Addison Energy Inc. (our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary)(Addison) and certain promissory notes between Addison and another of our wholly-owned subsidiaries to 1143928 Alberta Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAL Oil & Gas Trust (the Addison Transaction) as if the transaction had occurred on September 30, 2004.

 

                EXCO has currently used the proceeds from the sale of the Addison shares and the promissory notes as follows (in thousands of U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect on February 10, 2005):

 

Repayment of all outstanding bank debt under the Canadian credit agreement

 

$

72,066

 

Repayment of substantially all outstanding bank debt under the U.S. credit agreement

                The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 has been derived from our audited consolidated statement of operations for the 209 day period ended July 28, 2003 (predecessor basis), our audited consolidated statement of operations for the 156 day period ended December 31, 2003 (successor basis) and North Coast’s audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003. The pro forma statement of operations gives effect to the following events as if each occurred on January 1, 2003:

 

                  Our going private transaction, which occurred on July 29, 2003, and pursuant to which a change in control of EXCO was effected through the purchase of each outstanding common share, other than common shares held by EXCO Holdings Inc. (EXCO Holdings) and its affiliates. As a result of the going private transaction, we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of EXCO Holdings, our parent. As a result of the change in control, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires the acquisition by EXCO Holdings to be accounted for as a purchase transaction in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations.” GAAP requires the application of “push down accounting” in situations where the ownership of an entity has changed, meaning that the post-transaction financial statements of the acquired entity reflect a new basis of accounting in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 54. We have recognized increased depreciation, depletion and amortization expense reflecting the stepped up book basis resulting from the allocation of the purchase price.

 

                  Our acquisition of North Coast Energy, Inc. (North Coast) on January 27, 2004 for a purchase price of approximately $225.6 million. The North Coast acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the pro forma results of operations reflects an increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense due to the increase in the basis of the oil and gas properties resulting from the allocation of the purchase price.

 

F-1



 

                  Adjustments to conform North Coast’s historical accounting policies related to oil and natural gas properties from successful efforts to full cost accounting.

 

                  The issuance of the 7 ¼% senior notes on January 20, 2004 and April 13, 2004.  The proceeds from the issuance of these notes were used to acquire all of the outstanding shares of North Coast, to repay substantially all of EXCO’s, Addison’s and North Coast’s outstanding bank debt and to repay in full our senior term loan (collectively, the North Coast Transactions).

 

                  The elimination of Addison’s results of operations for the year.

 

                  The sale of the Addison shares and the promissory notes for a net sales price of approximately $423.6 million (Cdn. $549.4 million).  The sales price has been determined based upon actual amounts received in Canadian dollars for the sale of the shares less estimated transaction costs and have been converted to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at December 31, 2003.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 has been derived from our unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the unaudited historical consolidated statement of operations for North Coast for the 27 day period from January 1 to January 27, 2004. The pro forma statement of operations gives effect to the following transactions as if each had occurred on January 1, 2003:

 

                  Our acquisition of North Coast on January 27, 2004 for a purchase price of approximately $225.6 million. The North Coast acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the pro forma statement of operations reflects an increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense due to the increase in the basis of the oil and gas properties resulting from the allocation of the purchase price.

 

                  Adjustments to conform North Coast’s historical accounting policies related to oil and natural gas properties from successful efforts to full cost accounting for the 27 day period ended January 27, 2004.

 

                  The issuance of the 7 ¼% senior notes on January 20, 2004 and April 13, 2004.  The proceeds from the issuance of these notes were used to acquire all of the outstanding shares of North Coast, to repay substantially all of EXCO's, Addison's and North Coast’s outstanding bank debt and to repay in full our senior term loan.

 

                  The repayment of the Canadian credit facility and the repayment of substantially all of the U.S. credit facility.

 

                  The elimination of Addison’s results of operations for the year.

 

The unaudited pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to unaudited pro forma financial statements, our historical consolidated financial statements and related notes and the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of North Coast, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other financial information contained in the Prospectus for our senior notes exchange offer dated April 22, 2004 and our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2004 . The pro

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed

Consolidated Statement of Operations

 


(a)                                  A change in control of EXCO occurred on July 29, 2003 as a result of the going private transaction. Subsequent to this change in control, the financial statements reflect a new basis of accounting. See “Note 1—The Merger” of the notes to EXCO’s December 31, 2003 consolidated financial statements contained in the Prospectus for our senior notes exchange offer dated April 22, 2004.

 

(b)                                 Represents historical information for North Coast as of December 31, 2003, as reported in or derived from its audited consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2003.

 

(c)                                  Following the going private transaction, EXCO (successor basis) adopted the same accounting policies as EXCO (predecessor basis). Effective July 29, 2003, we no longer account for derivative financial instruments using hedge accounting. Instead, any change in fair value is recognized directly through the statement of operations. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Accounting for Derivatives” contained in the Prospectus for our senior notes exchange offer dated April 22, 2004.  The pro forma statements of operations reflect the historical accounting treatment in effect for all periods presented.

 

(d)                                 Represents reclassifications to conform to EXCO’s presentation.

 

(e)                                  Represents the adjustment to capitalize exploration expense as required under the full-cost method of accounting employed by EXCO.

 

(f)                                    Represents increased depreciation, depletion and amortization primarily relating to the step up in basis of oil and natural gas properties associated with the purchase price allocation for the going private transaction as if it occurred on January 1, 2003.

 

(g)                                 Represents increased depreciation, depletion and amortization primarily relating to the step up in basis of oil and natural gas properties associated with the purchase price allocation for the North Coast transaction as if it occurred on January 1, 2003 and utilizing the report on Proved Reserves prepared by Lee Keeling and Associates, Inc. as of December 31, 2003.

 

(h)                                 Represents additional accretion charges resulting from the revaluation of fair value based upon EXCO management’s assessment of certain factors as they relate to North Coast’s asset retirement obligation.

 

(i)                                     General and administrative pro forma expense adjustments include the following:
