Consol Energy Reports Net Income of $153 million; Coal Costs per Ton Drop $2.17, when compared to Q1 2012; Cash on Hand at $200 million, while Total Liquidity at $2.6 Billion

26.07.2012  |  PR Newswire

PITTSBURGH, July 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- CONSOL Energy Inc. (NYSE: CNX), the leading diversified fuel producer in the Eastern United States, reported net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 of $153 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared to $77 million, or $0.34 per diluted share from the year-earlier quarter. EBITDA1, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $414 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. This compared to $321 million in the year-earlier quarter.

There were several discrete items during the quarter that affected GAAP net income, including gains from the sales of some non-core properties, a charge for reclamation and selenium at the Fola Complex, and a charge for the expiration of certain shallow gas leases. The total after-tax effect of these items was an improvement of $82 million. They are detailed in the EBITDA reconciliation table later in the release.  

"We continue to manage our way through this challenging environment," commented J. Brett Harvey, chairman and CEO. "In fact, we are fortunate to have generated more net income in this year's second quarter than in last year's second quarter, despite the much weaker industry and macro environment. At CONSOL, we've been working  aggressively to manage costs and to raise cash by selling assets that are better suited to others."

In the Coal Division across all of its tons, CONSOL Energy had 2012 second quarter fully-load costs of $52.23 per ton. While this was higher than the 2011 second quarter, it represents a drop of $2.17 per ton from the 2012 first quarter of $54.40 per ton. The sequential improvement in costs per ton is even more impressive when one considers that the company produced 15.7 million tons in the 2012 first quarter and 14.6 million in the 2012 second quarter. Typically, it is more difficult to achieve unit cost savings on a lower production base.

The company attributes the unit cost improvement in coal to a combination of deflationary benefits from suppliers for items such as power, roof bolts, and diesel, as well as from re-doubled management efforts to preserve unit margins    in a softer price environment in each of CONSOL's coal markets.

CONSOL Energy's efforts to sell non-core assets this year has also been very successful. The previously announced sales of non-revenue producing assets has generated $224 million in cash, year-to-date.

Cash flow from operations in the quarter was $138 million, as compared to $360 million in the year-earlier quarter.  CONSOL continues to invest in its future, in both coal and gas, by investing $408 million in the 2012 second quarter on capital projects.

The cash flow from operations, when combined with the cash from asset sales and the $328 million due from our Marcellus Shale joint venture partner, Noble Energy, Inc., on September 30, means that for calendar 2012, the company has a reasonable expectation of being cash flow neutral, despite investing an expected $1.5 billion in maintenance and growth projects for both coal and gas.

"While there's no doubt that CONSOL and the coal and domestic natural gas industries face strong headwinds, we think it prudent to continue to invest in our core businesses to position CONSOL to capture value for our shareholders when the upcycle occurs," continued Mr. Harvey.  "CONSOL's portfolio of coal and gas assets is unique. No other company has tier-one low-vol coal, thermal coal, high-vol coal, gas, and land assets under one roof."

During the quarter, CONSOL Energy also expanded an existing mining joint venture with a privately-held company in Central Pennsylvania. The joint venture will self-fund, through retained earnings, a $54 million (gross) expansion in 2012 and 2013. The expansion will enable CONSOL 's share of high-vol A and mid-vol coal production to ramp from 150,000 tons in 2012 to 900,000 tons in 2015.

1The term "EBITDA" is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined and reconciled to the GAAP net income below, under the caption "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Coal Division Results:

The average realized price per ton, across all of the company's production in the 2012 second quarter, was $66.00, or down $8.63, or 12%, from the $74.63 realized in the 2011 second quarter. The drop was due to lower realized prices per ton for the low-vol and high-vol coal categories. The realized price for thermal coal, on the other hand, increased slightly from the year earlier quarter.

Average realized price per ton in the low-vol category in the 2012 second quarter was lower than expected because 80,000 tons that had been committed at higher prices, were deferred until later periods. These tons were replaced with lower priced spot sales. Two capesize vessels of a high ash product were sold into Asia for $85 per short ton, FOB mine. All other spot sales in the quarter averaged $109 per short ton, FOB mine. Changes in low-vol inventory valuation were negligible in this quarter, so that the realized price was close to the sales price. The company does not expect to sell any additional high ash tons into Asia in the foreseeable future.

Average realized price per ton in the high-vol category was affected by weaker market conditions in Asia.

Sales and production include CONSOL Energy's portion from equity affiliates. Operating costs include items such as labor, supplies, power, preparation costs, project expenses, subsidence costs, gas well plugging costs, charges for employee benefits (including Combined Fund premiums), royalties, and production and property taxes. Non-operating charges include items such as charges for long-term liabilities, and direct administration. The treatment of general and administrative has changed; it has been removed from the costs shown in this table for both the current quarter and the year-earlier quarter. Management has decided to allocate G&A to the coal division and the gas division, but will no longer allocate G&A beyond that. Sales times Average Margin Per Ton, before DD&A is meant to approximate the amount of cash generated for the low-vol, high-vol, and thermal coal categories. This cash generation will be offset by maintenance of production (MOP) capital expenditures. N/A means not applicable; there is no inventory in the High-Vol segment.

Total costs per ton, across all of CONSOL Energy's coal production in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 were $52.23, an increase of $0.53, or 1%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  However, the April 2012 idling of the Blacksville and Buchanan longwalls accounted for $1.65 per ton during the quarter. This means that, excluding idling, total costs per ton in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 were lower by $1.12, at $50.58.

Coal production in the quarter consisted of 1.1 million tons of low-vol, 1.2 million tons of high-vol, and 12.2 million tons of thermal, for a total of 14.6 million tons. (Numbers don't add due to rounding. Also, Amonate production of 56,000 tons is included in the low-vol category.)

Of the thermal coal production,11.0 million tons were from Northern Appalachia and 1.2 million tons were from Central Appalachia.

During the second quarter, thermal coal inventory was increased by 0.1 million tons, when compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Coal Marketing Update:

Low-Vol: Low-vol coal continues to be oversupplied in a world economy that has weakened in the last three months. Steel utilization rates are weak in Europe and Brazil, which are CONSOL's natural export markets. CONSOL estimates that unpriced low-vol tons shipped in the third quarter will receive a price similar to what was received in the second quarter. CONSOL idled the Buchanan longwall for a week in late July to better balance supply and demand. The idling will lower third quarter Buchanan production by 100,000 tons, to 1.0 million tons. CONSOL will use the idling to perform maintenance on a skip hoist.

High-Vol: Softness in the Asian metallurgical markets during the quarter continued to affect the realized high-vol coal price. CONSOL's high-vol was successfully tried by a European steel mill, but because of a general oversupply of coking coal, the customer is not expected to take shipments until steel demand increases. As a result, CONSOL has trimmed high-vol sales guidance for the second half of 2012.

U.S. Thermal: CONSOL has benefited during a weak thermal market by having nearly all of its coal sold in 2012. Customer requests for deferrals have largely subsided during hot summer weather. Utility stockpiles, while receding, remain at higher-than-normal levels.  Because of the lack of clarity for 2013, discussions for new thermal sales are in a very early stage.

Global Thermal: CONSOL expects to continue to sell thermal coal into European markets under contract and in Asian markets on a spot basis through the remainder of 2012.

Marcellus Shale: Total production was 7.2 Bcf, an increase of 16% from the 6.2 Bcf produced in the year-earlier quarter. After reducing the year-earlier quarter's production by the 3.5 Bcf attributable to the subsequent sales to Antero and Noble Energy, the adjusted increase was an impressive 167%.

Shallow: Total production was 7.2 Bcf, a decrease of 10% from the 8.0 Bcf produced in the year-earlier quarter.   The company has been shifting rigs and capital toward higher potential return Marcellus and Utica drilling prospects.

Other: A miscellaneous category had production of 0.5 Bcf, unchanged from 0.5 Bcf in the year-earlier quarter.

PRICE AND COST DATA PER MCF Quarter-to-Quarter Comparison

Despite 10% higher adjusted gas volumes, the company experienced reduced profitability within the Gas Division when compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  Unit gas margins fell despite the improvement in unit costs, as realized unit gas prices fell by $1.09 per Mcf. Total unit gas costs declined, due in part to the increased emphasis on low cost Marcellus Shale drilling, where the company has been drilling longer laterals on multi-well pads. All-in unit costs in the Marcellus Shale were $2.61 per Mcf in the just-end quarter, a decrease of $0.65 from the $3.26 per Mcf in the year-earlier quarter. Unit DD&A was lower due to higher proved reserves.

Note: While most of the data in the table are single point estimates, the inherent uncertainty of markets and mining operations means that investors should consider a reasonable range around these estimates. N/A means not available or not forecast. CONSOL has chosen not to forecast prices for open tonnage due to ongoing customer negotiations. In the thermal sales category, the open tonnage includes 4.7 million collared tons in 2013, with a ceiling of $59.78 per ton and a floor of $51.63 per ton. For 2014, the open tonnage in the thermal sales category includes 7.0 million tons, with a ceiling of $59.31 per ton and a floor of $45.93 per ton. Total Amonate estimated coal sales for Q3 2012 are 0.1 million tons. Calendar years 2012, 2013, and 2014 include 0.3, 0.6, and 0.6 million tons, respectively, from Amonate. The Amonate tons are not included in the category breakdowns. None of the Amonate tons has yet been sold.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Definition: EBIT is defined as earnings before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) and income taxes.  EBITDA is defined as earnings before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income), income taxes and depreciation, depletion and amortization.  Although EBIT and EBITDA are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that it is useful to an investor in evaluating CONSOL Energy because it is widely used to evaluate a company's operating performance before debt expense and its cash or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because all companies do not calculate EBIT or EBITDA identically, the presentation here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

our reliance on major customers; our inability to collect payments from customers if their creditworthiness declines; the disruption of rail, barge, gathering, processing and transportation facilities and other systems that deliver our coal and natural gas to market; a loss of our competitive position because of the competitive nature of the coal and natural gas industries, or a loss of our competitive position because of overcapacity in these industries impairing our profitability; our inability to maintain satisfactory labor relations; coal users switching to other fuels in order to comply with various environmental standards related to coal combustion emissions; the impact of potential, as well as any adopted regulations relating to greenhouse gas emissions on the demand for coal and natural gas; foreign currency fluctuations could adversely affect the competitiveness of our coal abroad; the risks inherent in coal and natural gas operations being subject to unexpected disruptions, including geological conditions, equipment failure, timing of completion of significant construction or repair of equipment, fires, explosions, accidents and weather conditions which could impact financial results; decreases in the availability of, or increases in, the price of commodities or capital equipment used in our mining and natural gas operations; decreases in the availability of, an increase in the prices charged by third party contractors or, failure of third party contractors to provide quality services to us in a timely manner could impact our profitability; obtaining and renewing governmental permits and approvals for our coal and natural gas operations; the effects of government regulation on the discharge into the water or air, and the disposal and clean-up of, hazardous substances and wastes generated during our coal and natural gas operations; the effects of stringent federal and state employee health and safety regulations, including the ability of regulators to shut down a mine or well; the potential for liabilities arising from environmental contamination or alleged environmental contamination in connection with our past or current coal and gas operations; the effects of mine closing, reclamation, gas well closing and certain other liabilities; uncertainties in estimating our economically recoverable coal and gas reserves; costs associated with perfecting title for coal or gas rights on some of our properties; the outcomes of various legal proceedings, which are more fully described in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; the impacts of various asbestos litigation claims; increased exposure to employee related long-term liabilities; our accruals for obligations for long-term employee benefits are based upon assumptions which, if inaccurate, could result in our being required to expend greater amounts than anticipated; due to our participation in an underfunded multi-employer pension plan, we have exposure under that plan that extends beyond what our obligation would be with respect to our employees and in the future we may have to make additional cash contributions to fund the pension plan or incur withdrawal liability; lump sum payments made to retiring salaried employees pursuant to our defined benefit pension plan exceeding total service and interest cost in a plan year; acquisitions and joint ventures that we recently have completed or entered into or may make in the future including the accuracy of our assessment of the acquired businesses and their risks, achieving any anticipated synergies, integrating the acquisitions and unanticipated changes that could affect assumptions we may have made and divestitures we anticipate may not occur or produce anticipated proceeds including joint venture partners paying anticipated carry obligations; the terms of our two significant existing gas joint ventures restrict our flexibility and actions taken by the other party in our gas joint ventures may impact our financial position; the anti-takeover effects of our rights plan could prevent a change of control; risks associated with our debt; replacing our natural gas reserves, which if not replaced, will cause our gas reserves and gas production to decline; our ability to find adequate water sources for use in gas drilling, or our ability to dispose of water used or removed from strata in connection with our gas operations at a reasonable cost and within applicable environmental rules; our hedging activities may prevent us from benefiting from price increases and may expose us to other risks; and other factors discussed in the 2011 Form 10-K under "Risk Factors," as updated by any subsequent Form 10-Qs, which are on file at the Securities and Exchange Commission.
