Penn Virginia Reports Third Quarter 2019 Results

--- Exceeded Mid-point of Third Quarter Production Guidance ---

--- Expects to Drill Within Cash Flow in Fourth Quarter 2019 ---

HOUSTON, November 7, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Penn Virginia Corporation (“Penn Virginia” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:PVAC) today announced its financial and operational results for the third quarter 2019.

Significant Operational and Financial Highlights

• Produced 29,003 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“BOEPD”) (73% crude oil) for the third quarter of 2019;

• Reported net income of $54.4 million, or $3.59 per diluted share, and adjusted net income⁽¹⁾ of $29.8 million, or $1.97 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019;

• Generated adjusted EBITDAX⁽²⁾ of $87.1 million for the third quarter of 2019; and

• Realized oil price of $57.12 per barrel, a $0.68 per barrel premium over the West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) average price for the third quarter of 2019.

John A. Brooks, President and Chief Executive Officer of Penn Virginia commented, “We reported another solid quarter with production exceeding the mid-point of guidance, low total cash direct operating costs, and strong cash margins. This resulted in higher adjusted EBITDAX⁽²⁾ both sequentially and year-over-year, despite lower realized pricing over the same periods.”

Mr. Brooks continued, “Generating sustainable free cash flow remains Penn Virginia’s top priority and we continue to focus on driving down our capital costs and increasing operational efficiencies. During the third quarter, we successfully turned in-line 18.3 net wells, which was 4.8 net wells - or more than 35% - higher than previously anticipated as a result of our strong drilling and completion performance during the quarter. Given these additional wells were brought on-line late in the period, we have momentum heading into the fourth quarter. Combined with our ongoing cost reduction efforts and operational enhancement initiatives, we expect to drill within cash flow in the fourth quarter of 2019. More importantly, we expect to generate free cash flow in 2020.”

Third Quarter 2019 Operating Results

Total production increased approximately 27% from the third quarter of 2018 to 2.668 million barrels of oil equivalent (“MMBOE”), or 29,003 BOEPD (73% crude oil). Penn Virginia turned to sales 20 gross (18.3 net) wells during the third quarter of 2019, which is 4.8 net wells more than originally planned.

Third Quarter 2019 Financial Summary 

Adjusted cash direct operating expenses⁽³⁾, which consist of LOE, gathering, processing, and transportation (“GPT”) expenses, production and ad valorem taxes, and cash general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses, were $31.7 million, or $11.88 per BOE, in the third quarter of 2019.  Total G&A expenses for the third quarter of 2019 were $6.9 million, or $2.58 per BOE, which included $1.0 million of non-cash share-based compensation.  For the third quarter of 2019, adjusted cash general and administrative expenses, which excludes non-cash share-based compensation⁽⁴⁾, were $2.18 per BOE. LOE was $4.45 per BOE.

Net income for the third quarter of 2019 was $54.4 million, or $3.59 per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.3 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2018.  Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾ was $29.8 million, or $1.97 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2019, versus $41.7 million, or $2.72 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2018.

Adjusted EBITDAX⁽²⁾ was $87.1 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $85.1 million in the third quarter of 2018.

Hedging Update

Penn Virginia enters into oil hedges on a portion of its production to help mitigate commodity price risk. 

The table below sets forth Penn Virginia’s current oil hedge positions:

	WTI - Oil Volumes (Bbls Per Day)	WTI - Average Swap Price ($/barrel)		LLS - Oil Volumes (Bbls Per Day)	LLS - Average Swap Price ($/barrel)		MEH - Oil Volumes (Bbls Per Day)	MEH - Average Swap Price ($/barrel)
Q4 2019	11,400	$	55.97	5,000	$	59.17	1,000	$	64.00
2020	10,100	$	54.97	—	$	—	2,000	$	61.03

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company incurred $99.1 million of capital expenditures (excluding acquisitions), of which 98% was associated with drilling and completion capital.

As of September 30, 2019, Penn Virginia had cash of $11.4 million and total debt of $570.4 million, including borrowings under its revolving credit facility of $370.4 million. Liquidity was $140.6 million, including cash and $129.2 million available under the Company’s revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s net debt to adjusted EBITDAX ratio was approximately 1.7x⁽⁵⁾.

Acreage and Drilling Inventory

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had approximately 100,200 gross (87,300 net) acres.  Penn Virginia’s acreage is approximately 91% held by production.

Penn Virginia had an estimated 500 gross (440 net) drilling locations on September 30, 2019, of which 100% are Company-operated.

Outlook

The Company is committed to maintaining financial discipline and a strong balance sheet.  Penn Virginia is targeting year-over-year production growth of approximately 25% to 30% for 2019, assuming a two-rig development program. The Company currently plans on maintaining its two-rig program throughout 2020.

The table below sets forth the Company’s operational and financial guidance:

Exhibit 99.1

	2019	% Oil
Production (BOEPD)	27,400 - 27,700	74%
Realized Price Differentials
Oil (WTI, per barrel)	$0.00 - $1.00
Natural gas (Henry Hub, per MMBtu)	$(0.10) - $0.10
Direct Operating Expenses
Lease operating expenses (per BOE)	$4.10 - $4.60
GPT expenses (per BOE)	$2.25 - $2.75
Ad valorem and production taxes (percent of product revenue)	6.25% - 6.50%
Cash G&A expenses (per BOE)	$2.00 - $2.50
Capital Expenditures (millions)	$350 - $360

The Company’s capital guidance (excludes acquisitions) was increased due to faster than expected drilling and an acquisition, which increased Penn Virginia's working interest in several wells that were recently drilled. Penn Virginia anticipates having five (gross) drilled but not yet completed wells on December 31, 2019.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Reserves

The estimates and guidance presented in this release are based on assumptions of capital expenditure levels, prices for oil, natural gas, and NGLs, current indications of supply and demand for oil, well results and operating costs. The guidance provided in this release does not constitute any form of guarantee or assurance that the matters indicated will be achieved. While we believe these estimates and the assumptions on which they are based are reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and are subject to, among other things, significant business, economic, operational and regulatory risks and uncertainties and are subject to material revision. Actual results may differ materially from estimates and guidance. Please read the “Forward-Looking Statements” section below, as well as “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K, which are incorporated herein.

Readers are reminded that non-GAAP measures are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, or superior to financial measures prepared according to GAAP. They should be evaluated in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. It should be noted as well that our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

Reconciliation of GAAP “Net income” to Non-GAAP “Adjusted net income”

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income adjusted to include net cash settlements of derivatives and exclude the effects, net of income taxes, of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, net gains and losses on the sales of assets, acquisition, divestiture and strategic transaction costs, executive retirement costs, other net items and alternative minimum tax credit adjustments. We believe that Non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income per share amounts provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance. This information facilitates management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results as well as to the operating results of our competitors. Since management finds this measure to be useful, the Company believes that our investors can benefit by evaluating both non-GAAP and GAAP results. Adjusted net income non-GAAP is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income.

Exhibit 99.1

Reconciliation of GAAP “Net income” to Non-GAAP “Adjusted EBITDAX”

Adjusted EBITDAX represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense, further adjusted to include the net cash settlements of derivatives and exclude the effects of gains and losses on sales of assets, non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, and special items including acquisition, divestiture and strategic transaction costs, executive retirement costs and other items. We believe this presentation is commonly used by investors and professional research analysts for the valuation, comparison, rating, investment recommendations of companies within the oil and gas exploration and production industry. We use this information for comparative purposes within our industry. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDAX as defined by Penn Virginia may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) and other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as operating income or cash flows from operating activities. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of Penn Virginia’s results as reported under GAAP.

Reconciliation of GAAP “Operating expenses” to Non-GAAP “Adjusted direct operating expenses and Adjusted direct

operating expenses per BOE”

Adjusted direct operating expenses and adjusted direct operating expenses per BOE are a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain non-recurring expenses and non-cash expenses. We believe that the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted total direct operating expense per BOE is useful to investors because it provides readers with a meaningful measure of our cost profile and provides for greater comparability period-over-period.

Reconciliation of GAAP “General and administrative expenses” to Non-GAAP “Adjusted cash general and administrative expenses”

Adjusted cash general and administrative expenses is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain non-recurring expenses and non-cash share-based compensation expense. We believe that the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted cash general and administrative expenses is useful to investors because it provides readers with a meaningful measure of our recurring G&A expense and provides for greater comparability period-over-period.
