Oasis Petroleum Inc. Announces Quarter Ending September 30, 2011 Earnings

HOUSTONNov. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Oasis Petroleum Inc. (NYSE: OAS) ("Oasis" or the "Company") today announced financial and operational results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  

Highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2011 include:

  • Grew average daily production to 11,583 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("Boepd"), a 110% increase over the third quarter of 2010.  Daily production increased by 47% compared to the second quarter of 2011.
  • Increased Adjusted EBITDA to $62.9 million, an increase of $40.9 million over the third quarter of 2010 and a sequential increase of $18.4 million over the second quarter of 2011.  For a definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measure" below.

 

"Our team's continued execution of our business plan resulted in production growth in the third quarter of 2011 of 47% over the second quarter 2011 and 110% over the third quarter of 2010.  Additionally, production continues to grow into the fourth quarter of 2011," saidThomas B. Nusz, Oasis' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our multi-year inventory of oil drilling locations in the Williston Basin provides us with strong visible growth potential.  Consistent with our plan, we just added our eighth and ninth operated rigs."

Financial Update

Average price per barrel of oil, without realized derivatives, was $83.52 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $66.42 in the third quarter of 2010 and $95.48 in the second quarter of 2011.  The average price differential compared to West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") crude oil index prices was 6% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to 13% in the third quarter of 2010 and 7% in the second quarter of 2011.  The Company's differentials have improved due to higher quoted prices for Bakken crude in markets such as Clearbrook, Minnesota, and Guernsey, Wyoming.

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2011 was $87.6 million compared to $33.0 million for the third quarter of 2010, an increase of 166%.  Sequential quarter-over-quarter revenue growth was $20.4 million, or 30%.

Lease operating expenses ("LOE") increased $6.6 million to $9.8 million for the third quarter 2011 compared to the third quarter 2010 and increased by $3.6 million in the third quarter 2011 compared to the second quarter 2011.  Lease operating expenses increased by$2.90 per Boe, or 46%, to $9.23 per Boe in the third quarter 2011 compared to the third quarter 2010.  Lease operating expenses increased by $0.60 per Boe, or 7%, in the third quarter 2011 compared to the second quarter 2011 of $8.63 per Boe.  This increase was due to an increased number of producing wells, increased water production combined with increased costs associated with salt water disposal, and the continuing impact of the inclement weather experienced during the first half of 2011.

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses totaled $7.3 million in the third quarter of 2011, $4.8 million in the third quarter 2010, and $6.6 million in the second quarter 2011.  The increase in G&A expenses from the second quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of 2011 was primarily due to the impact of higher compensation costs from organizational growth, additional audit fees related to our registration statements and additional consulting costs related to our 2011 Sarbanes-Oxley compliance project.  G&A expenses were$6.86 per Boe in the third quarter of 2011, $9.57 per Boe in the third quarter 2010, and $9.21 per Boe in the second quarter 2011. On a per unit basis, G&A expenses were down 26% from the second quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of 2011 due to production growth.  Additionally, the Company recorded approximately $1.0 million, or $0.96 per Boe, for the amortization of restricted stock-based compensation, which is included in G&A expenses for the third quarter of 2011, as compared to $0.6 million, or $1.11 per Boe, in the third quarter of 2010 and $1.0 million, or $1.45 per Boe, in the second quarter of 2011.

Production taxes increased by $5.4 million to $8.9 million for the third quarter of 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2010 and increased by $1.8 million in the third quarter 2011 compared to the second quarter 2011.  Production taxes as a percent of revenue were 10.1% in the third quarter 2011, 10.7% in the third quarter 2010, and 10.5% in the second quarter 2011. The production tax rate decreased primarily due to certain new wells in Montana subject to lower incentivized production tax rates.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization totaled $20.9 million in the third quarter of 2011, $9.8 million in the third quarter 2010, and$13.1 million in the second quarter 2011.  Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $19.57 per Boe in the third quarter of 2011,$19.25 per Boe in the third quarter 2010, and $18.24 per Boe in the second quarter 2011. The increase in DD&A expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to the increase in production quarter over quarter during 2011.

The Company recorded non-cash charges related to impairment of oil and natural gas properties of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2011 related to unproved property leases that expired during the period. Interest expense increased $6.6 million to $6.8 million for the third quarter 2011 compared to the third quarter 2010 and remained consistent in the third quarter 2011 compared to the second quarter 2011. The increase was the result of interest related to the Company's senior unsecured notes issued in February 2011 at an interest rate of 7.25%. There were no borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Income tax expense was $38.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, resulting in an effective tax rate of 37.01%.  Our effective tax rate is expected to continue to closely approximate the statutory rate applicable to the U.S. and the blended state rate of the states in which we conduct business. Our income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was recorded at 39.4% of pre-tax net income. In addition, we recorded a $6.2 million discrete deferred tax expense in September 2010 for changes in estimates to our deferred tax liability for the initial book and tax basis differences recorded at the time of our corporate reorganization in June 2010.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2011 was $62.9 million, an increase of $40.9 million, or 186%, over the third quarter of 2010 of $22.0 million, and a 41% increase over the second quarter of 2011 of $44.6 million.

The Company reported net income of $66.3 million, or $0.72 per weighted average diluted share, for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.02 per weighted average diluted share, for the third quarter of 2010.  The third quarter of 2011 included an unrealized gain on derivative instruments of $71.4 million, an increase of $39.7 million, or 125%, over the second quarter of 2011 of $31.7 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

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 and amortization, property impairments, exploration expenses, unrealized derivative gains and losses and non-cash stock-based compensation expense. 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 tables present a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP financial measures of net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively.
