Penn Virginia Corporation (NYSE: PVA) today reported financial and operational results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2009 and provided an update of full-year 2010 guidance.

Fourth Quarter 2009 Highlights

Fourth quarter 2009 results, with comparisons to fourth quarter 2008 results, included the following:

  • Record proved reserves of 942 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (Bcfe) as of December 31, 2009, as compared to 916 Bcfe as of December 31, 2008;
  • Quarterly oil and gas production of 11.3 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (Bcfe), or 123.1 million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (MMcfe) per day, as compared to 13.2 Bcfe, or 143.8 MMcfe per day;
  • Operating cash flow, a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) measure, of $74.4 million as compared to $95.7 million;
  • Operating income of $20.6 million, which included $11.1 million of non-cash impairment charges, as compared to an operating loss of $31.9 million, which included $51.8 million of non-cash impairment charges;
  • Adjusted net loss attributable to PVA, a non-GAAP measure which excludes the effects of the non-cash change in derivatives fair value, impairments and gains or losses that affect comparability to the prior year period, of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, as compared to adjusted net income of $10.7 million, or $0.26 per diluted share;
  • Net loss attributable to PVA of $5.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, as compared to net loss attributable to PVA of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share; and
  • Financial liquidity consisting of undrawn borrowing capacity and cash balances at December 31, 2009, pro forma to include the net proceeds from our January 2010 Gulf Coast divestiture,of approximately $410 million, as compared to approximately $150 million on December 31, 2008.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP-based measures appear in the financial tables later in this release.

Management Comment

A. James Dearlove, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Compared to the prior year quarter, we experienced significant declines in commodity prices and a 14 percent decrease in oil and gas production resulting from our decision to suspend drilling during a large part of 2009. However, the fourth quarter of 2009 came in as expected and we believe we are well-positioned for growth in 2010 and beyond. As detailed in our separate operational update, fourth quarter production was at the high end of our expectations and we expect growth of six to 13 percent in 2010, pro forma the divestiture of our Gulf Coast assets. Due to the improved pricing environment and outlook for natural gas we have recommenced drilling and currently have six operated rigs running in our core plays.

"For 2010, we have hedged approximately 55 percent of our estimated natural gas production, at average floor and ceiling prices of $6.09 and $8.19 per MMBtu, respectively. During 2009 and through January 2010, we raised over $510 million from the issuances of debt and equity securities and the sale of non-core assets, including a portion of our position in PVG. As a result, we have substantially improved our financial liquidity, with $300 million of unused availability on our revolving credit facility and over $100 million of cash on hand. We expect our strong hedge and liquidity positions to facilitate future growth in our focused, resource play-driven operations.

"In addition to our core oil and gas exploration and production business segment, we own 51 percent of Penn Virginia GP Holdings, L.P. (NYSE: PVG). PVG owns the general partner of Penn Virginia Resource Partners, L.P. (NYSE: PVR) and is PVR’s largest limited partner unitholder. As the owner of the general partner and largest unitholder of PVG, we report our financial results on a consolidated basis with the financial results of PVG. At current distribution rates, our ownership of PVG and PVR provides us approximately $30 million of annualized pre-tax cash flow.”

Full-Year 2009 Consolidated Results

For the year ended December 31, 2009, operating cash flow was $280.5 million, as compared to $413.8 million in 2008. We incurred an operating loss of $98.2, which included charges of $127.7 million for impairments on assets held for sale, drilling rig standby charges and other impairments, as compared to operating income in 2008 of $256.8 million, which included charges of $51.8 million for impairments and $31.4 million of gains on the sale of assets. The adjusted net loss attributable to PVA, which excludes the effects of non-cash impairments, change in derivatives fair value, drilling rig standby charges and gains on the sale of assets, was $14.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, as compared to adjusted net income attributable to PVA of $85.5 million, or $2.03 per diluted share, in 2008. The net loss attributable to PVA was $114.6 million, or $2.62 per diluted shared, as compared to net income attributable to PVA of $121.1 million, or $2.87 per diluted share, in 2008 due primarily to the decrease in operating income. Oil and gas production increased nine percent to a record 51.0 Bcfe and proved reserves increased three percent to a record 942 Bcfe. At PVR, lessee coal production and natural gas midstream system throughput volumes were also fiscal year records for those segments.

Oil and Gas Segment Review

Fourth quarter oil and gas production decreased 14 percent to 11.3 Bcfe, or 123.1 MMcfe per day, from 13.2 Bcfe, or 143.8 MMcfe per day, in the fourth quarter of 2008, and nine percent from 12.4 Bcfe, or 134.9 MMcfe per day, in the third quarter of 2009. See our separate operational update news release dated February 4, 2010 for a more detailed discussion of operations for the oil and gas segment.

For the fourth quarter of 2009, the oil and gas segment operating loss of $8.0 million was a $16.5 million improvement over the operating loss of $24.5 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusting for a non-cash impairment charges (primarily on assets held for sale and subsequently divested) of $9.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 and a non-cash impairment charge of $20.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008, operating income was $1.6 million, or $6.1 million greater than operating loss of $4.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in adjusted operating income was due to a $30.1 million decrease in non-cash exploration and depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expenses and a $3.0 million decrease in cash operating expenses, due to reduced drilling and production in the fourth quarter of 2009, partially offset by a $26.9 million decrease in total revenues. The 31 percent decrease in total revenues was primarily due to a $2.03 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf), or 32 percent, decrease in the natural gas price and the 14 percent production decrease, partially offset by a 41 percent increase in the oil price and a 36 percent increase in the price of natural gas liquids (NGLs).

In the fourth quarter of 2009, total oil and gas segment expenses, excluding the impairment and rig standby charges, decreased by $32.5 million, or 36 percent, to $57.9 million, or $5.11 per Mcfe produced, from $90.5 million, or $6.84 per Mcfe produced, in the fourth quarter of 2008, as discussed below:

  • Fourth quarter 2009 cash operating expenses were $23.4 million, or $2.06 per Mcfe produced, as compared to $26.4 million, or $1.99 per Mcfe produced, in the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase in unit cash operating expenses was primarily due to higher segment general and administrative (G&A) expense and taxes other than income, partially offset by lower lease operating expense, as discussed below:
    • Lease operating expense decreased seven percent to $1.14 per Mcfe from $1.22 per Mcfe primarily due to decreased overall service costs due to lower commodity prices;
    • Taxes other than income increased 17 percent to $0.34 per Mcfe from $0.29 per Mcfe primarily due to the production decrease; and
    • Segment G&A expense increased 20 percent to $0.59 per Mcfe as compared to $0.49 per Mcfe primarily due to the production decrease and additional costs related to an office relocation.
  • Exploration expense decreased 87 percent to $2.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, as compared to $22.7 million in the prior year quarter, due in part to a lack of exploratory drilling in the fourth quarter of 2009 and $13.9 million of charges in the prior year quarter for dry-hole costs and a write-off of leasehold acquisition costs.
  • DD&A expense decreased by $10.2 million, or 25 percent, to $31.2 million, or $2.74 per Mcfe, in the fourth quarter of 2009 from $41.4 million, or $3.13 per Mcfe, in the prior year quarter. The overall decrease in DD&A expense was primarily due to the production decrease and a lower depletion rate per unit of production. The lower depletion rate was primarily due to an impairment of Gulf Coast assets held for sale (subsequently divested) during the third quarter of 2009 and increasing contributions to production from the high-return Granite Wash play.

During the fourth quarter of 2009, we incurred approximately $9.6 million of impairments. These charges were primarily related to Gulf Coast assets held for sale which were subsequently sold in January 2010.

Coal & Natural Resource Management and Natural Gas Midstream Segment Review (PVR and PVG)

As the owner of the general partner and largest unitholder of PVG, we report our financial results on a consolidated basis with the financial results of PVG. A conversion of the GAAP-compliant financial statements ("As reported”) to the equity method of accounting ("As adjusted”) is included in the "Conversion to Non-GAAP Equity Method” table in this release. Using the equity method, PVG’s results are reduced to a few line items and the results from oil and gas operations are therefore highlighted. We believe that the financial statements presented using the equity method are less complex and more comparable to those of other oil and gas exploration and production companies. Financial and operational results and full-year 2010 guidance for each of PVR’s segments are provided in the financial tables later in this release. In addition, operational updates for these segments are discussed in more detail in PVR’s news release dated February 10, 2010. Please visit PVR’s website, www.pvresource.com, under "For Investors” for a copy of the release.

As previously announced, on February 19, 2010, PVG will pay to unitholders of record as of February 2, 2010 a quarterly cash distribution of $0.38 per unit, or an annualized rate of $1.52 per unit. The distribution remains unchanged from the distribution paid in the previous quarter. As a result of PVG’s distribution, we will receive a cash distribution of $7.6 million in the first quarter of 2010, or $30.5 million on an annualized basis.

Capital Resources, Credit Facility and Impact of Derivatives

As of December 31, 2009, we had outstanding borrowings of $530.0 million ($498.4 million carrying value), consisting of $300 million ($291.7 million carrying value) of senior unsecured notes due 2016 and $230.0 million ($206.7 million carrying value) of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2012 and no borrowings against our revolving credit facility. The $32.0 million decrease in outstanding borrowings as compared to the $562.0 million at December 31, 2008 was primarily due to the repayment of revolver debt following a $64.9 million offering of PVA common shares in May 2009 and a $118.1 million offering of PVG common units in September 2009, as well as free cash flow during the second half of 2009, net of spending to fund our oil and gas capital expenditures. Currently, we have $300 million of unused availability on our revolving credit facility and over $100 million of cash on hand.

As of December 31, 2009, PVR had outstanding borrowings of $620.1 million under its $800 million revolving credit facility with remaining revolver borrowing capacity of $178.3 million. The $52.0 million increase in outstanding PVR borrowings as compared to $568.1 million outstanding as of December 31, 2008 was primarily due to PVR capital expenditures during 2009. PVR’s debt is non-recourse to PVA.

Consolidated interest expense increased from $14.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 to $18.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase was due to a higher interest rate on the senior unsecured notes PVA issued in June 2009 and higher average level of outstanding borrowings during the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior year quarter.

Due to decreases in natural gas and crude oil prices experienced during the fourth quarter, the mark-to-market valuation of our and PVR’s open hedging positions resulted in derivatives income of $3.4 million in the fourth quarter as compared to derivatives income of $51.0 million in the prior year quarter. Included in derivatives income for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $11.1 million of income related to our oil and gas segment and $7.7 million of expense related to PVR. Fourth quarter 2009 cash settlements of our oil and gas derivatives resulted in net cash receipts of $10.3 million, as compared to $5.8 million of net cash receipts in the same quarter of 2008. PVR’s fourth quarter 2009 cash settlements of commodity and interest rate derivatives result in net cash payments of $1.1 million, as compared to $5.2 million of net cash payments in the same quarter of 2008.

Guidance for 2010

See the Guidance Table included in this release for guidance estimates for full-year 2010. These estimates, including capital expenditure plans, which were discussed in our operational update, are meant to provide guidance only and are subject to revision as our and PVR’s operating environments change.

Reconciliation of GAAP "Net cash provided by operating activities" to Non-GAAP "Operating cash flow"

Net income (loss) attributable to PVA, as adjusted (b) $ (365 ) $ 10,738   $ (14,146 ) $ 85,510  
 
Net income (loss) attributable to PVA, as adjusted, per share, diluted $ (0.01 ) $ 0.26 $ (0.32 ) $ 2.03
 
 
(a) Operating cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities. We believe that operating cash flow is widely accepted as a financial indicator of an energy company's ability to generate cash which is used to internally fund investing activities, service debt and pay dividends. Operating cash flow is widely used by investors and professional research analysts in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies within the energy industry. Operating cash flow is presented because we believe it is a useful adjunct to net cash provided by operating activities under GAAP. Operating cash flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities, as an indicator of cash flows, as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income.
 
(b) Net income (loss) attributable to PVA as adjusted represents net income (loss) attributable to PVA adjusted to exclude the effects of non-cash changes in the fair value of derivatives, drilling rig standby charges, impairments, gains and losses on the sale of assets and net income of PVR allocated to unvested PVR restricted units awarded as equity compensation that we hold until vesting. 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, as well as companies within the natural gas midstream industry. We use this information for comparative purposes within these industries. Net income (loss) attributable to PVA, 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 income attributable to PVA.

(a) The following table shows our current derivative positions in the oil and gas segment as of December 31, 2009:

 
Weighted Average Price

Average Volume
Per Day

Additional
Put Option

Floor Ceiling
 
Natural gas costless collars (MMBtu) ($ per MMBtu)
First quarter 2010 35,000 4.96 7.41
Second quarter 2010 30,000 5.33 8.02
Third quarter 2010 30,000 5.33 8.02
Fourth quarter 2010 50,000 5.65 8.77
First quarter 2011 50,000 5.65 8.77
Second quarter 2011 30,000 5.67 7.58
Third quarter 2011 30,000 5.67 7.58
Fourth quarter 2011 20,000 6.00 8.50
First quarter 2012 20,000 6.00 8.50
 
Natural gas three-way collars (1) (MMBtu) ($ per MMBtu)
First quarter 2010 30,000 6.83 9.50 13.60
 
Natural gas swaps (MMBtu) ($ per MMBtu)
First quarter 2010 15,000 6.19
Second quarter 2010 30,000 6.17
Third quarter 2010 30,000 6.17
 
Crude oil costless collars (barrels) ($ per barrel)
First quarter 2010 500 60.00 74.75
Second quarter 2010 500 60.00 74.75
Third quarter 2010 500 60.00 74.75
Fourth quarter 2010 500 60.00 74.75
 

We estimate that, excluding the derivative positions described above, for every $1.00 per MMBtu increase or decrease in the natural gas price, oil and gas segment operating income for 2010 would increase or decrease by approximately $17.8 million. In addition, we estimate that for every $5.00 per barrel increase or decrease in the crude oil price, oil and gas segment operating income for 2010 would increase or decrease by approximately $1.8 million. This assumes that crude oil prices, natural gas prices and inlet volumes remain constant at anticipated levels. These estimated changes in gross margin and operating income exclude potential cash receipts or payments in settling these derivative positions.

(1) A three-way collar is a combination of options: a sold call, a purchased put and a sold put. The sold call establishes the maximum price that we will receive for the contracted commodity volumes. The purchased put establishes the minimum price that we will receive for the contracted volumes unless the market price for the commodity falls below the sold put strike price, at which point the minimum price equals the reference price (i.e., NYMEX) plus the excess of the purchased put strike price over the sold put strike price.

(b)

The costless collar natural gas prices per MMBtu per quarter include the effects of basis differentials, if any. The following table shows current derivative positions for natural gas production in PVR's natural gas midstream segment as of December 31, 2009:

         
 
Average
Volume
Swap Weighted Average Price
Per Day Price Put   Call
 
Crude oil collar (barrels) ($ per barrel)
First quarter 2010 through fourth quarter 2010 750 70.00 81.25
 
Crude oil collar (barrels) ($ per barrel)
First quarter 2010 through fourth quarter 2010 1,000 68.00 80.00
 
Natural gas purchase swap (MMBtu) ($ per MMbtu)
First quarter 2010 through fourth quarter 2010 5,000 5.815
 
NGL - natural gasoline collar (gallons) (per gallon)
First quarter 2011 through fourth quarter 2011 60,000 $1.55 $1.92
 
Crude oil collar (barrels) (per barrel)
First quarter 2011 through fourth quarter 2011 400 $75.00 $98.50
 
Natural gas purchase swap (MMBtu) ($ per MMBtu)
First quarter 2011 through fourth quarter 2011 3,000 6.430
 

We estimate that, excluding the derivative positions described above, for every $1.00 per MMBtu increase or decrease in the natural gas price, natural gas midstream gross margin and operating income for 2010 would decrease or increase by approximately $6.9 million. In addition, we estimate that for every $5.00 per barrel increase or decrease in the crude oil price, natural gas midstream gross margin and operating income for 2010 would increase or decrease by approximately $11.5 million. This assumes that crude oil prices, natural gas prices and inlet volumes remain constant at anticipated levels. These estimated changes in gross margin and operating income exclude potential cash receipts or payments in settling these derivative positions.
