Halcón Resources Announces Third Quarter 2016 Results


HOUSTON, Nov. 09, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Halcón Resources Corporation (NYSE:HK) (“Halcón” or the “Company”) today announced its third quarter 2016 results.

Production for the three months ended September 30, 2016 averaged 34,185 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boe/d).  Production was comprised of 76% oil, 13% natural gas liquids (NGLs) and 11% natural gas for the quarter.  The Company shut-in approximately 7,000 Boe/d of net production during the third quarter due to low commodity prices.  This production was brought back online in early October 2016.  Halcón expects fourth quarter net production to be between 39,000 and 41,000 Boe/d and D&C capex to be approximately $45 to $50 million. 

Halcón generated total revenues of $102.5 million for the third quarter of 2016.  In addition, Halcón realized a net gain on settled derivative contracts of $80.0 million during the quarter. 

Excluding the impact of hedges, Halcón realized 89% of the average NYMEX oil price, 18% of the average NYMEX oil price for NGLs and 54% of the average NYMEX natural gas price during the third quarter of 2016. 

Total operating costs per unit were $24.89 per Boe during the third quarter.  After adjusting for selected items, total operating costs per unit (see Selected Operating Data table for additional information), were $17.33 per Boe and $17.12 per Boe for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, a 5% decline from the nine month period ended a year earlier. 

Liquidity and Capital Spending

As of September 30, 2016 Halcón’s liquidity was approximately $369 million, which consisted of $367 million of undrawn capacity on the Company’s revolver plus $2 million in cash and cash equivalents.  The Company’s senior revolving credit facility is scheduled for its next borrowing base redetermination in May of 2017.  Based on current strip pricing, Halcón is anticipated to generate positive cash flow for the remainder of 2016 and be approximately break-even for 2017 based on its preliminary 2017 drilling plan of one rig growing to two rigs in April of 2017. 

During the third quarter of 2016, the Company incurred capital costs of $36 million on drilling and completions, and $2 million on infrastructure, seismic and leasehold acquisitions.  In addition, Halcón incurred $18 million for capitalized interest, G&A and other in the third quarter.   

Hedging Update

Halcón has 26,000 Bbl/d of oil hedged for the last three months of 2016 at an average price of $76.60 per barrel.  For 2017, the Company has 14,750 Bbl/d of oil hedged at an average price of $55.02 per barrel.  Halcón estimates the pre-tax mark-to-market value of its hedge portfolio to be approximately $92 million as of November 7, 2016.

Operations Update

The Company is currently running 1 operated rig in the Fort Berthold area of the Williston Basin and plans to keep this rig running there through 2017.  Halcón is tentatively planning to add a second operated rig in the Williston Basin in April of 2017 depending on oil prices and other factors.  This second rig will initially drill a 5 well pad in the Company’s Williams County area before moving to the Fort Berthold area.  Halcón currently has 16 wells in the Bakken being completed or waiting on completion.

Bakken/Three Forks

The Company operated an average of 1 rig in the Williston Basin during the third quarter of 2016.

Halcón spudded 6 wells and put 2 wells online in the Fort Berthold area of the Williston Basin during the three months ended September 30, 2016.  The Company participated in 15 non-operated wells with an average working interest of 9% during the third quarter.  Production averaged 25,231 Boe/d during the third quarter of 2016 in the Williston Basin including the impact of approximately 7,000 boe/d shut in during the quarter.   

Halcón currently has working interests in approximately 119,000 net acres prospective for the Bakken and Three Forks formations in the Williston Basin, substantially all of which is held by production (HBP).  With one operated rig running, the Company plans to spud 7 gross operated wells with an average working interest of approximately 89% and expects to put approximately 15 gross operated wells online over the remaining three months of 2016.  Halcón also expects to participate in 5 to 10 gross non-operated wells over the last three months of 2016 with an average working interest of approximately 5%. Halcón expects operated wells put online over the remainder of 2016 and 2017 in Fort Berthold to have an average EUR in excess of 900 MBoe.  The Company expects the wells it puts online in Williams County in 2017 to have average EURS in excess of 700 MBoe.  The Company estimates it has approximately 100 gross operated locations that are economic at current strip pricing in Williams County.  Current operated drilling and completion costs are anticipated to be $5.9 million in Fort Berthold and $5.2 million in Williams County.

Halcón is currently the operator of 216 producing Bakken wells and 68 Three Forks wells.

"El Halcón" - East Texas Eagle Ford

The Company did not run an operated rig in El Halcón during the third quarter of 2016 and no wells were put online during the quarter.  Halcón anticipates adding a rig back to this area when oil prices improve.  Halcón is currently evaluating the impact of enhanced frac designs on its El Halcón acreage with the goal of improving ultimate recoveries and economics. 

Halcón currently has working interests in approximately 80,000 net acres prospective for the Eagle Ford formation in East Texas, approximately 82% of which is HBP.  The Company currently operates 112 El Halcón wells. Production for the quarter averaged 6,693 Boe/d in the El Halcón area.

Fresh Start Accounting

Halcón adopted fresh-start accounting as of September 9, 2016, the effective date of its emergence from chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, resulting in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes.  Upon the adoption of fresh-start accounting, Halcón’s assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of the fresh-start reporting date, and as a result the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements subsequent to September 9, 2016 may not be comparable to its financial statements prior to September 9, 2016.  Please review Halcón’s Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2016 for further details regarding fresh-start accounting and the financial information presented at the end of this release.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release may contain 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. Statements that are not strictly historical statements constitute forward-looking statements and may often, but not always, be identified by the use of such words such as "expects", "believes", "intends", "anticipates", "plans", "estimates", "potential", "possible", or "probable" or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "will", "should", or "could" be taken, occur or be achieved.  This release may also use the term “EUR” to describe estimates of potentially recoverable hydrocarbons that the SEC rules prohibit from being included in filings with the SEC. These are based on the Company’s internal estimates of hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially discovered through exploratory drilling or recovered with additional drilling or recovery techniques. These quantities do not constitute “reserves” within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineer’s Petroleum Resource Management System or SEC rules and are subject to substantially greater uncertainties relating to recovery than reserves. “EUR,” or Estimated Ultimate Recovery, refers to our management’s internal estimates based on per well hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially recovered from a hypothetical future well completed as a producer in the area. For areas where the Company has no or very limited operating history, EURs are based on publicly available information relating to operations of producers operating in such areas.  For areas where the Company has sufficient operating data to make its own estimates, EURs are based on internal estimates by the Company’s management and reserve engineers. Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations and involve certain assumptions or estimates that involve various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, effects on market price of the Company's common stock and on the Company's ability to access the capital markets, and the risks set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and other filings submitted by the Company to the SEC, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or through the Company's website at www.halconresources.com.  Readers should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which are made only as of the date hereof. The Company has no duty, and assumes no obligation, to update forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or changes in the Company's expectations.

(3) For illustrative purposes, the Company has combined the Successor and Predecessor results to derive combined results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016. The combination was generated by addition of comparable financial statement line items. However, because of various adjustments to the consolidated financial statements in connection with the application of fresh-start reporting, including asset valuation adjustments and liability adjustments, the results of operations for the Successor may not be comparable to those of the Predecessor. The financial information preceding the table above provides the Successor and the Predecessor GAAP results for the applicable periods. The Company believes that subject to consideration of the impact of fresh-start reporting, combining the results of the Predecessor and Successor provide meaningful information about, for instance, production, revenues and costs, that assist a reader in understanding the Company’s financial results for the applicable periods.

For the 2015 (Predecessor) column, this represents tax impact using an estimated tax rate of 37.04%. This column also includes an adjustment for the change in valuation allowance of $(57.2 million) the three months ended September 30, 2015 (Predecessor).
        
(3) Net income (loss) and earnings per share excluding selected items and cash flow from operations before changes in working capital adjusted for selected items are non-GAAP measures presented based on management's belief that they will enable a user of the financial information to understand the impact of these items on reported results.  Additionally, this presentation provides a beneficial comparison to similarly adjusted measurements of prior periods. These financial measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, earnings per share and cash flow from operations, as defined by GAAP. These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures that other companies may use and may not be useful in comparing the performance of those companies to Halcón's performance.
