FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PENN VIRGINIA CORPORATION ANNOUNCES RECORD QUARTERLY OIL PRODUCTION AND

2013 OIL PRODUCTION GROWTH GUIDANCE OF 67 PERCENT

CORE EAGLE FORD SHALE POSITION EXPANDED TO 62,000 NET ACRES

DRILLING INVENTORY INCREASED TO APPROXIMATELY 750 LOCATIONS

EXCELLENT RECENT DRILLING RESULTS IN THE EAGLE FORD SHALE

FINANCIAL LIQUIDITY OF APPROXIMATELY $300 MILLION

RADNOR, PA (Globe Newswire) August 7, 2013 – Penn Virginia Corporation (NYSE: PVA) today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and provided updates of its operations and 2013 guidance.

Second Quarter 2013 Highlights

Second quarter 2013 financial results, as compared to first quarter 2013 results, were as follows:

 

   

Product revenues from the sale of oil, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and natural gas were $109.7 million, or $62.78 per barrel of oil equivalent (BOE), an increase of 34 percent compared to $82.2 million, or $57.61 per BOE;

 

   

Oil and NGL revenues were $94.2 million, or 86 percent of product revenues, an increase of 34 percent compared to $70.2 million, or 85 percent of product revenues;

 

   

Operating margin, a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) measure, excluding acquisition transaction expenses of $2.4 million, was $46.09 per BOE, an increase of 20 percent compared to $38.55 per BOE;

 

   

Operating income, also excluding acquisition transaction expenses, was $5.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.0 million;

 

   

Adjusted EBITDAX, a non-GAAP measure, was $83.1 million, an increase of 38 percent compared to $60.3 million;

 

   

Loss attributable to common shareholders (which includes our preferred stock dividend) was $27.2 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $18.1 million, or $0.33 per diluted share; and

 

   

Adjusted loss attributable to common shareholders (which includes our preferred stock dividend), a non-GAAP measure which excludes the effects of certain costs and other gains or losses that affect comparability to other periods, was $10.9 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $10.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share.

Recent operational highlights were as follows:

 

   

Second quarter production of 1.7 million BOE (MMBOE), or 19,209 BOE per day (BOEPD), up 21 percent compared to 1.4 MMBOE, or 15,857 BOEPD, in the first quarter.

 

   

Second quarter Eagle Ford Shale production of 11,476 BOEPD, up 53 percent compared to 7,523 BOEPD in the first quarter.

 

   

Record quarterly oil production of 9,430 barrels of oil per day (BOPD), an increase of 42 percent over 6,655 BOPD in the first quarter of 2013.

 

   

Including the Eagle Ford Shale assets acquired from Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (NYSE: MHR) in April 2013 (MHR Acquisition), we currently have a total of 139 (94.3 net) Eagle Ford Shale producing wells, with 15 (8.4 net) wells either completing or waiting on completion and five (2.1 net) wells being drilled.


   

The average peak gross production rate per well for the 120 (84.9 net) operated wells completed to date was 1,094 BOEPD. The initial 30-day average gross production rate for the 116 of these 120 wells with a 30-day production history was 702 BOEPD. The average lateral length for these operated wells was approximately 4,475 feet, with an average of 19 fracturing (frac) stages.

 

   

The average peak gross production rate per well for the 22 (13.5 net) most recent operated wells was 1,282 BOEPD. The initial 30-day average gross production rate for the 19 of these 22 wells with a 30-day production history was 787 BOEPD. The average lateral length for these recent wells was approximately 5,520 feet, with an average of 22 frac stages.

 

   

The average stimulation (completion) cost per frac stage was approximately $150,000 in the second quarter of 2013, compared to approximately $200,000 in the first quarter of 2013. This average is expected to decrease further to approximately $110,000 per frac stage beginning in the third quarter of 2013, as we transition to new pumping service providers.

 

   

Currently, we have a total of approximately 110,000 gross (62,000 net) acres in the Eagle Ford Shale.

 

   

Approximately 9,000 net acres in the Eagle Ford Shale have been added recently at a cost of approximately $1,600 per acre; and

 

   

As previously announced in June 2013, approximately 1,300 net acres and associated production were divested pursuant to exercises of preferential rights in connection with the MHR Acquisition, with net proceeds to PVA of approximately $21.4 million before purchase price adjustments.

 

   

We estimate that we currently have approximately 750 undeveloped drilling locations, which is a drilling inventory of approximately 10 years, assuming an ongoing six-rig program.

 

   

This has increased from 645 locations that had been disclosed previously.

 

   

14 of our recently drilled wells were drilled off of six multi-well pads, with effective spacing of between 45 and 70 acres.

Definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP-based measures appear later in this release. Second quarter financial and production results reflect contributions from the MHR acquisition from April 24, 2013 through June 30, 2013.

Management Comment

H. Baird Whitehead, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “In the second quarter, our operating cash flows and margins remained strong as a result of the continued growth in oil production, including contributions from the MHR Acquisition, as well as lower unit operating costs. We expect oil production to increase by approximately 67 percent in 2013 over 2012, comprising approximately 82 percent of product revenues and approximately 53 percent of production. Substantial growth in oil production and cash flows is expected to continue into 2014 and 2015.

“New leasing in the Eagle Ford Shale has materially increased our net acreage at a cost of approximately $1,600 per net acre. As a result and in conjunction with successful downspaced drilling, we have an approximate ten-year drilling inventory at the current pace of drilling. We believe we will be able to continue to add acreage at attractive costs, providing for further increases to our drilling inventory. We expect to see significant reductions in our well costs beginning in the second half of 2013 and expect that our overall Eagle Ford Shale program will contribute substantial production and cash flow growth over the next few years. Our balance sheet remains sound with approximately $300 million of financial liquidity and a leverage ratio of approximately 3.5 times net debt to pro forma Adjusted EBITDAX. We expect to fund our 2013 and 2014 capital programs with increasing operating cash flows and borrowings under our revolver, decreasing our leverage ratio over time. We remain excited about Penn Virginia’s future with an ongoing six-rig program providing estimated annual oil production growth of between 30 and 40 percent over the next two years, with the expectation of self-funding our capital program by the end of 2015 going into 2016.”


Second Quarter 2013 Results

Overview of Financial Results

The $3.2 million operating income in the second quarter was a $6.2 million improvement over the $3.0 million loss in the first quarter, due primarily to a $27.5 million increase in total product revenues. The effect of this increase was partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in total direct operating expenses (including $2.4 million of acquisition transaction expenses), a $12.7 million increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense, a $1.6 million increase in share-based compensation expense, a $1.6 million increase in exploration expense and a $1.1 million decrease in other revenues. The changes in revenue and expense items were attributable primarily to the MHR Acquisition in late April 2013.

Product Revenues

Total product revenues were $109.7 million in the second quarter, a 34 percent increase compared to $82.2 million in the first quarter, due primarily to increased production, as well as a nine percent increase in average product pricing from $57.61 per BOE to $62.78 per BOE. Oil and NGL revenues were $94.2 million in the second quarter, a 34 percent increase compared to $70.2 million in the first quarter, due primarily to increased production. Oil and NGL revenues were 86 percent of product revenues in the second quarter, compared to 85 percent in the first quarter.

Operating Expenses

As discussed below, second quarter total direct operating expenses, excluding $2.4 million of acquisition transaction expenses, increased $2.0 million to $29.2 million, or $16.68 per BOE produced, compared to $27.2 million, or $19.06 per BOE produced, in the first quarter.

 

   

Lease operating expenses increased by $0.8 million to $8.6 million, or $4.94 per BOE, from $7.8 million, or $5.47 per BOE, due to higher production;

 

   

Gathering, processing and transportation expenses decreased by $0.6 million to $3.0 million, or $1.70 per BOE, from $3.6 million, or $2.51 per BOE, due primarily to certain non-recurring charges recorded during the first quarter;

 

   

Production and ad valorem taxes increased by $1.0 million to $7.0 million, or 6.4 percent of product revenues, from $6.0 million, or 7.2 percent of product revenues, due primarily to production increases in the Eagle Ford Shale; and

 

   

General and administrative expenses, excluding share-based compensation and acquisition transaction expenses, increased by $0.7 million to $10.6 million, or $6.05 per BOE, from $9.9 million, or $6.91 per BOE, due primarily to higher employee-related costs in the second quarter, as well as transition services related to the MHR Acquisition.

Exploration expense increased by $1.6 million to $7.8 million in the second quarter from $6.2 million in the first quarter. The increase was due primarily to the cost of seismic data acquired in connection with the MHR Acquisition.

DD&A expense increased by $12.7 million to $64.3 million, or $36.80 per BOE produced, in the second quarter of 2013 from $51.6 million, or $36.14 per BOE produced, in the first quarter due primarily to production increases in the Eagle Ford Shale.


Second Quarter 2013 Operational Results

Production

Production in the second quarter was 1.7 MMBOE, or 19,209 BOEPD, compared to 1.4 MMBOE, or 15,857 BOEPD, in the first quarter. As a percentage of total equivalent production, oil and NGL volumes were 64 percent in the second quarter of 2013, compared to 58 percent in the first quarter. The table below shows quarterly production detail.

Capital Expenditures

During the second quarter, capital expenditures were approximately $145 million, an increase of 53 percent compared to $96 million in the first quarter, consisting of:

 

   

$116 million for drilling and completion activities;

 

   

$9 million for seismic, pipeline, gathering and facilities; and

 

   

$20 million for leasehold acquisitions, field projects and other.

The approximate $50 million increase in capital expenditures from the first quarter to the second quarter was attributable to increased drilling, completion and facility costs as a result of a larger drilling program following the MHR Acquisition, as well as an approximate $15 million increase in lease acquisition costs, primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale.

Operational Update

Eagle Ford Shale

Net production from the Eagle Ford Shale was 11,476 BOEPD in the second quarter, compared to 7,523 BOEPD in the first quarter, or an increase of 53 percent. During the second quarter, we completed 17 (10.8 net) operated wells and participated in the completion of two (0.9 net) non-operated wells. Currently, we have a total of 139 (94.3 net) Eagle Ford Shale producing wells, with 15 (8.4 net) wells either completing or waiting on completion and five (2.1 net) wells being drilled. We are currently running four operated rigs, three of which are drilling and one of which is being retro-fitted to a walking rig for use in pad drilling, and two non-operated rigs.

Wellhead rates only; the natural gas associated with these wells is yielding between 165 and 315 barrels of NGLs per million cubic feet in Gonzales and Lavaca Counties.

Of our recent wells, 14 wells (Elk Hunter wells, Addax Hunter wells, Buffalo Hunter and Gonzo South wells, Hefe Hunter and Pilsner Hunter wells, the Vana wells and the Moose Hunter wells) were drilled off of six pads, with effective spacing of between 45 and 70 acres. With continued leasing, primarily in Gonzales and Lavaca Counties contiguous to our current acreage positions, and continued success of our pad drilling efforts and shallower development spacing, we anticipate that, over time, additional wells will be added to our 750-well drilling inventory.

Capital Resources and Liquidity, Interest Expense and Impact of Derivatives

As of June 30, 2013, we had total debt of $1,142 million, consisting of $300 million principal amount of 7.25 percent senior unsecured notes due 2019, $775 million of 8.50 percent senior unsecured notes due 2020 and $67 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility (Revolver), with approximately $280 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Revolver. Our indebtedness at June 30, 2013, net of cash and cash equivalents, was $1,123 million, representing 56 percent of book capitalization, with a leverage ratio under the Revolver of 3.5 times trailing twelve months’ pro forma Adjusted EBITDAX of approximately $329 million.

In May, the borrowing base and commitment under the Revolver was increased from $276.2 million to $350.0 million. As a result, together with cash and cash equivalents of $19 million, our financial liquidity was approximately $300 million at June 30, 2013. The next borrowing base redetermination is scheduled for November 2013.


During the second quarter, interest expense was $21.8 million, compared to $14.5 million in the first quarter. We reported a $29.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt ($10.0 million of which was non-cash) in connection with the tender offer and redemption of our 10.375 percent senior notes due 2016.

During the second quarter, derivatives income was $8.6 million, compared to a derivatives loss of $7.8 million in the first quarter. Second quarter 2013 cash settlements of derivatives resulted in net cash receipts of $2.2 million, compared to $3.6 million of net cash receipts in the first quarter.

Derivatives Update

To support our operating cash flows, we hedge a portion of our oil and natural gas production at pre-determined prices or price ranges. Based on hedges currently in place, we have hedged approximately 9,500 barrels of daily crude oil production in the second half of 2013, or approximately 76 percent of the midpoint of guidance for second half 2013 crude oil production, at a weighted average floor/swap price of $94.69 per barrel. We have also hedged approximately 25,000 MMBtu of daily natural gas production in the second half of 2013, or approximately 67 percent of the midpoint of guidance for second half 2013 natural gas production, at a weighted average floor/swap price of $3.79 per Mcf.

Please see the Derivatives Table included in this release for our current derivative positions.

2013 Guidance

Previous guidance refers to guidance provided in the first quarter 2013 earnings release, which excluded the impact of the exercise of preferential rights by our Eagle Ford Shale partners as announced in June 2013. Updated 2013 guidance highlights are as follows:

 

   

Production is expected to be 6.8 to 7.5 MMBOE, or approximately 18,500 to 20,600 BOEPD, compared to previous guidance of 6.7 to 7.3 MMBOE, or approximately 18,200 to 20,000 BOEPD.

 

   

Crude oil production is expected to increase by 55 to 78 percent over 2012 levels, compared to previous guidance of 60 to 78 percent growth. Crude oil and NGLs are expected to comprise 63 to 69 percent of total production, compared to previous guidance of 65 to 69 percent growth.

 

   

Product revenues, excluding the impact of any hedges, are expected to be $416 to $471 million, slightly higher than previous guidance of $414 to $469 million.

 

   

Crude oil and NGL product revenues are expected to be 86 to 89 percent of total product revenues, unchanged from previous guidance.

 

   

Settlements of current commodity hedges are expected to result in cash receipts of approximately $12 million in 2013.

 

   

Adjusted EBITDAX, a non-GAAP measure, is expected to be $310 to $350 million, compared to previous guidance of $300 to $360 million.

 

   

Capital expenditures are expected to be $470 to $510 million, compared to previous guidance of $445 to $505 million. The increase is due primarily to $13 to $19 million of additional lease acquisition opportunities, primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale.

 

   

Approximately 92 percent of capital expenditures are expected to be allocated to the Eagle Ford Shale.

 

   

2013 capital expenditures include $413 to $437 million for drilling and completions (compared to previous guidance of $400 to $450 million), $36 to $49 million for lease acquisitions (compared to previous guidance of $23 to $30 million) and $21 to $24 million for pipeline, gathering, seismic and facilities (compared to previous guidance of $22 to $25 million).

 

   

We expect to drill 69 (42.3 net) Eagle Ford Shale wells during 2013, excluding 16 (7.0 net) wells drilled by MHR and another operator prior to the closing of the MHR Acquisition.

Please see the Guidance Table included in this release for guidance estimates for 2013. These estimates are meant to provide guidance only and are subject to revision as our operating environment changes.


Explanation of Non-GAAP Operating Margin per BOE

Operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure under SEC regulations which represents total product revenues less total direct operating expenses, excluding acquisition transaction expenses. Operating margin per BOE is equal to operating margin divided by total equivalent crude oil, NGL and natural gas production. Operating margin is not adjusted for the impact of hedges. We believe that operating margin per BOE is an important measure that can be used by security analysts and investors to evaluate our operating margin per unit of production and to compare it to other oil and gas companies, as well as for comparisons to other time periods.

Certain statements contained herein that are not descriptions of historical facts are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Because such statements include risks, uncertainties and contingencies, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and contingencies include, but are not limited to, the following: the volatility of commodity prices for oil, NGLs and natural gas; our ability to develop, explore for, acquire and replace oil and natural gas reserves and sustain production; our ability to generate profits or achieve targeted reserves in our development and exploratory drilling and well operations; any impairments, write-downs or write-offs of our reserves or assets; the projected demand for and supply of oil, NGLs and natural gas; reductions in the borrowing base under our revolving credit facility; our ability to contract for drilling rigs, supplies and services at reasonable costs; our ability to obtain adequate pipeline transportation capacity for our oil and gas production at reasonable cost and to sell the production at, or at reasonable discounts to, market prices; the uncertainties inherent in projecting future rates of production for our wells and the extent to which actual production differs from estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves; drilling and operating risks; our ability to compete effectively against other independent and major oil and natural gas companies; our ability to successfully monetize select assets and repay our debt; leasehold terms expiring before production can be established; environmental liabilities that are not covered by an effective indemnity or insurance; the timing of receipt of necessary regulatory permits; the effect of commodity and financial derivative arrangements; our ability to maintain adequate financial liquidity and to access adequate levels of capital on reasonable terms; the occurrence of unusual weather or operating conditions, including force majeure events; our ability to retain or attract senior management and key technical employees; counterparty risk related to their ability to meet their future obligations; changes in governmental regulations or enforcement practices, especially with respect to environmental, health and safety matters; uncertainties relating to general domestic and international economic and political conditions; and other risks set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our press releases and public periodic filings with the SEC. Many of the factors that will determine our future results are beyond the ability of management to control or predict.

(a) Net loss applicable to common shareholders, as adjusted, represents the net loss adjusted to exclude the effects of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, acquisition transaction expenses, impairments, restructuring costs, net gains and losses on the sale of assets, loss on extinguishment of debt and preferred stock dividends. We believe this presentation is commonly used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies within the oil and gas exploration and production industry. We use this information for comparative purposes within our industry. Net loss applicable to common, as adjusted, 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 loss.
(b) Adjusted EBITDAX represents net loss before income tax expense or benefit, interest expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, exploration expense and share-based compensation expense, further adjusted to exclude the effects of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, acquisition transaction expenses, impairments, net gains and losses on the sale of assets, loss on extinguishment of debt and other non-cash items. We believe this presentation is commonly used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, rating and 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 loss. Adjusted EBITDAX represents EBITDAX as defined in our revolving credit facility.

(a) This written swaption contract gives our counterparties the option to enter into a fixed price swap with us at a future date. If the forward commodity price for calendar year 2014 is higher than or equal to $100.00 per barrel on December 31, 2013, the counterparty will exercise its option to enter into a fixed price swap at $100.00 per barrel for calendar year 2014, at which point the contract functions as a fixed price swap. If the forward commodity price for calendar year 2014 is lower than $100.00 per barrel on December 31, 2013, the option expires and no fixed price swap is in effect.

We estimate that, excluding the derivative positions described above, for every $1.00 per MMBtu increase or decrease in the natural gas price, operating income for 2013 would increase or decrease by approximately $6.7 million. In addition, we estimate that for every $10.00 per barrel increase or decrease in the crude oil price, operating income for 2013 would increase or decrease by approximately $31.1 million. This assumes that crude oil prices, natural gas prices and inlet volumes remain constant at anticipated levels. These estimated changes in operating income exclude potential cash receipts or payments in settling these derivative positions.
