Oasis Petroleum Inc. Announces Quarter and Year Ending December 31, 2015 Earnings and Provides an Operational Update and its 2016 Outlook

HOUSTON, Feb. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Oasis Petroleum Inc. (NYSE: OAS) ("Oasis" or the "Company") today announced financial and operational results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015 and provided its 2016 outlook.

2015 Highlights

  • Increased average daily production 11% year-over-year to 50,477 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("Boepd") in 2015 and increased fourth quarter of 2015 production to 50,652 Boepd.
  • Completed and placed on production 80 gross (62.4 net) operated wells during 2015 and 16 gross (10.7 net) operated wells during the fourth quarter of 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had 85 gross operated wells awaiting completion.  
  • Reduced lease operating expenses ("LOE") per barrel of oil equivalent ("Boe") by 23% to $7.84 per Boe for the year ended December 31, 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $820.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to $952.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. For a definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
  • Net loss was $40.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to net income of $506.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. Lower realized prices for oil and natural gas reduced net income (loss) by $641.2 million year over year.
  • Capital expenditures ("CapEx") were $610.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, a 61% decrease year over year.

"Given the challenging market backdrop, Oasis continues to focus on protecting its balance sheet while improving operational results," said Thomas B. Nusz, Oasis' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  "Oasis was free cash flow positive in 2015, as we lowered drilling and completion capital by 70% and LOE per Boe by 23% year over year. We reduced our high intensity well costs by about 30% from the fourth quarter of 2014 to the second half of 2015, and, at the same time, production performance of our high intensity wells continued to track 30% to in excess of 50% improvement to our base completion type curve in the core.  Additionally, our midstream business reported $66.3 million of Adjusted EBITDA in 2015, up from $26.5 million in 2014.  The team increased volumes flowing on our gathering lines from 40% exiting 2014 to 75% exiting 2015, significantly improving our cost structure in a low price environment as reflected in our lower per barrel LOE expense."

Mr. Nusz added, "We have set our 2016 drilling and completion CapEx program at $200 million and continue to project that 2016 cash flow from Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest will cover our CapEx plan, excluding midstream, at approximately $35 per barrel WTI.  We also now have about 70% of our projected oil volumes hedged at over $51 per barrel WTI in 2016."

2016 Plan

Highlights for 2016 include:

  • $400 million total CapEx budget
  • Completing 46 gross (28.6 net) operated wells in 2016
  • 100% of completions are high intensity in the core
  • Running two rigs in Wild Basin

Due to lower expected future oil prices, the Company reviewed its proved oil and natural gas properties for impairment as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment loss of $9.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 to adjust the carrying value of its proved oil and natural gas properties held for sale to their estimated fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment loss of $40.0 million for certain legacy wells producing from conventional reservoirs in the Williston Basin. During the fourth quarters of 2015 and 2014, the Company also recorded non-cash impairment charges of $11.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively, for unproved properties due to leases that expired during the period and periodic assessments of unproved properties.

G&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 totaled $25.3 million, and for the year ended December 31, 2015, G&A totaled $92.5 million. The fourth quarter of 2015 included bank fees related to consent solicitations on the Company's senior unsecured notes. G&A expenses for the Company's exploration and production segment totaled $21.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 and $83.0 million in the full year of 2015. Exploration and production G&A expenses were $4.70 per Boe in the fourth quarter of 2015 and $4.50 per Boe in the full year of 2015. Amortization of stock-based compensation, which is included in G&A expenses, was $5.6 million, or $1.21 per Boe, in the fourth quarter of 2015 and $25.3 million, or $1.37 per Boe, in the full year of 2015.

As a result of entering into derivative contracts and the effect of the forward strip oil price changes, the Company incurred a $99.1 million net gain on derivative instruments, including net cash settlement receipts from derivatives of $79.0 million, for the fourth quarter of 2015 and a $210.4 million net gain on derivative instruments, including net cash settlement receipts of $370.4 million, for the full year of 2015. The net cash settlement receipts from derivative instruments of $79.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 included $25.3 million, $25.5 million and $28.2 million from contract settlements in September 2015, October 2015 and November 2015, respectively. The Company's derivative instruments do not qualify for and were not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes.

Interest expense was $36.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 and $149.6 million for the full year of 2015. Capitalized interest totaled $4.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 and $18.6 million for the full year of 2015. Cash interest, calculated as interest expense plus capitalized interest less amortization of deferring financing costs, totaled $40.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 and $161.0 million for the full year of 2015.

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $1.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 30.1% as a percentage of its pre-tax income for the quarter. The Company's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2015 was recorded at $16.1 million, or 28.6% of pre-tax net loss.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $176.7 million and adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2015 was $820.2 million.

The Company reported net income of $4.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. For the full year 2015, Oasis reported a net loss of $40.2 million. Excluding certain non-cash items and their tax effect in the fourth quarter of 2015 and full year of 2015, Adjusted Net Income (non-GAAP) was $6.7 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, and $93.8 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, respectively. For a definition of Adjusted Net Income and a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted Net Income, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, exploration expenses and other similar non-cash or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.

The following table presents reconciliations of the GAAP financial measures of net income and net cash provided by operating activities to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income after adjusting first for (1) the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring items, including non-cash changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, impairment of oil and gas properties, and other similar non-cash and non-recurring charges, and then (2) the non-cash and non-recurring items' impact on taxes based on the Company's effective tax rate applicable to those items in the same period. Adjusted Net Income is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

The following table presents reconciliations of the GAAP financial measure of net income to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted Net Income and the GAAP financial measure of diluted earnings per share to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share for the periods presented:
