CNX Resources Corp. Reports First Quarter Results; Record Quarterly Production of 129.5 Bcfe

03.05.2018  |  PR Newswire
Total Production Costs Fall to $2.10 Per Mcfe; Repurchases $200 million of Common Stock Since October 2017

PITTSBURGH, May 3, 2018 - CNX Resources Corp. (NYSE: CNX) ("CNX" or the company) reported net income attributable to CNX shareholders of $528 million, or earnings of $2.35 per diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to CNX shareholders of $39 million, or a loss of $0.17 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2017.

Prior to the company's previously announced acquisition on January 3, 2018, of the remaining 50% membership interest of CNX Gathering LLC ("CNX Gathering") (the "Midstream Acquisition"), the company accounted for its 50% interest in CNX Gathering LLC as an equity method investment. The Midstream Acquisition gave the company controlling interest in CNX Gathering and, through its ownership of the general partner, CNX Midstream Partners LP (NYSE: CNXM) ("CNXM"). As a result, commencing on January 3, 2018, the company's consolidated results include 100% of the results of CNX, CNX Gathering, CNX Midstream GP LLC, and CNXM.

Throughout this release, CNX distinguishes between these consolidated numbers and what is attributable to CNX shareholders, as follows:

Consolidated: Includes 100% of the results of CNX, CNX Gathering, CNX Midstream GP LLC, and CNXM.

Attributable to CNX shareholders: Subtracts out CNX's noncontrolling interest in CNXM, which is approximately 63.91% and is comprised of the limited partner units in CNXM, which were not acquired by CNX.

On a consolidated basis, earnings before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income), income taxes and depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA) from continuing operations1 were $922 million for the 2018 first quarter, compared to negative $2 million in the year-earlier quarter. 

On a GAAP basis, the first quarter earnings included the following pre-tax items attributable to continuing operations:

  • Recorded a $52 million unrealized gain on commodity derivative instruments, related to changes in the fair market value of existing hedges on a mark-to-market basis;
  • Recorded $9 million in gains on certain assets sales; and
  • Recorded a $624 million gain on the company's previously held equity interest in connection with the Midstream Acquisition.

After adjusting for these and certain other items, which are described in the footnote to the EBITDA reconciliation table, the company had adjusted net income attributable to CNX shareholders1 in the 2018 first quarter of $42 million, or $0.19 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to CNX shareholders1 was $236 million for the 2018 first quarter, compared to $124 million in the year-earlier quarter. On a consolidated basis, adjusted EBITDAX from continuing operations1 was $259 million for the 2018 first quarter. 

During the first quarter of 2018, CNX sold 129.5 Bcfe of natural gas, or an increase of 36% from the 95.0 Bcfe sold in the year-earlier quarter, driven primarily from Utica Shale volumes. Total quarterly production costs decreased to $2.10 per Mcfe, compared to the year-earlier quarter of $2.32 per Mcfe, driven primarily by reductions in transportation, gathering, and compression costs, and depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A), offset in part by an increase in lease operating expense (LOE). On a consolidated basis, capital expenditures were $232 million, of which $216 million was related to E&P, compared to $104 million spent in the year-earlier quarter.

"Our first full quarter, post spin, was a successful quarter highlighted by strong operational execution; cash flows growing materially; approximately $102 million in asset sales; closing on the previously announced acquisition of the remaining 50% membership interest in CNX Gathering; selling the West Virginia Shirley-Pennsboro gathering system to CNXM for $265 million; additional stacked pay delineation; and the continuation of the share repurchase program," commented Nicholas J. DeIuliis, president and CEO.

During the quarter, CNX received approximately $102 million in proceeds from the sale of assets, which included approximately $88 million for the sale of CNX's shallow oil and gas (SOG) assets, as well as proceeds for the sale of scattered acreage and other miscellaneous assets. In connection with the SOG sale, the buyer assumed approximately $200 million of liabilities primarily associated with asset retirement obligations, which CNX had on its balance sheet.

Also during the quarter, CNX sold its 95% interest in the Shirley-Pennsboro gathering system to CNXM for total cash consideration of $265 million, which substantially returned the investment the company made in the Midstream Acquisition. A sale under common control doesn't allow for a gain or loss, and as a result this transaction is not reflected under proceeds from asset sales in the cash flow statement due to consolidated accounting rules. In total, however, including the sale of the Shirley-Pennsboro gathering system, CNX sold approximately $367 million of assets during the first quarter of 2018.

The company has continued to utilize cash on the balance sheet to repurchase common stock under its one-year $450 million share repurchase program and has repurchased over 13 million shares for a total price of $200 million since October 2017. The company continues to focus on the capital allocation opportunity to repurchase additional shares using both cash on hand, as well as balance sheet capacity up to its 2.5x leverage ratio target, which the company de-risks through its programmatic hedging strategy incorporating both NYMEX and basis hedges.

1The terms "EBITDA from continuing operations," "adjusted net income attributable to CNX shareholders," "adjusted EBITDAX attributable to CNX shareholders," and " adjusted EBITDAX from continuing operations" are non-GAAP financial measures, which are defined and reconciled to the GAAP net income below, under the caption "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

First Quarter Operations Summary:

In the first quarter of 2018, CNX operated three horizontal rigs and drilled 19 wells: two Utica Shale wells in Monroe County, Ohio; seven Marcellus Shale wells in Greene County, Pennsylvania; and 10 Marcellus Shale wells in Washington County, Pennsylvania.

Also, CNX completed five wells during the quarter: three Marcellus Shale wells in Washington County, Pennsylvania and two deep dry Utica Shale wells, the RHL 11 and Marchand 3M. The RHL 11 is located in Greene County, Pennsylvania, and the Marchand 3M is located in Indiana County, Pennsylvania. These two deep dry Utica Shale wells are still in the early days of their producing lives. Both wells are flowing using managed pressure drawdown production methods and are valuable data points in delineating the Pennsylvania dry Utica Shale and are providing further confidence in understanding the play, as the company moves into commercial stacked pay development.

Marcellus Shale volumes, including liquids, in the 2018 first quarter were 65.9 Bcfe, approximately 14% higher than the 58.0 Bcfe produced in the 2017 first quarter. The increased production is due to new Marcellus Shale wells coming on line late in 2017 and during the first quarter of 2018. Marcellus total production costs were $2.30 per Mcfe in the just-ended quarter, which is a $0.12 per Mcfe increase from the first quarter of 2017 of $2.18 per Mcfe, driven by increases to water disposal costs and processing costs associated with the Shirley-Pennsboro wells that were turned-in-line (TIL) during the third and fourth quarters of 2017.

Utica Shale volumes, including liquids, in the 2018 first quarter were 43.5 Bcfe, approximately 184% higher than the 15.3 Bcfe in the year-earlier quarter, and which is consistent with the company's previously stated expectations that Utica Shale volumes would ramp in the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2018, driven primarily from TIL activity in Monroe County, Ohio. In addition to the production, the ramp in Monroe County volumes also benefited overall Utica Shale total production costs, which were $1.60 per Mcfe in the just-ended quarter, or a $0.56 per Mcfe improvement from the first quarter of 2017 total production costs of $2.16 per Mcfe.

*NGLs, Oil, and Condensate are converted to Mcfe at the rate of one barrel equals six Mcf based upon the approximate relative energy content of oil and natural gas, which is not indicative of the relationship of oil, NGLs, condensate, and natural gas prices.

Note: "Total Production Costs" excludes Selling, General, and Administration and Other Operating Expenses.

The average sales price of $3.00 per Mcfe, when combined with unit costs of $2.10 per Mcfe, resulted in a margin of $0.90 per Mcfe. This was an increase when compared to the year-earlier quarter, due to improvements in average sales price and total production costs.

Marketing Update:

For the first quarter of 2018, CNX's average sales price for natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs), oil, and condensate was $3.00 per Mcfe. CNX's average price for natural gas was $2.96 per Mcf for the quarter and, including cash settlements from hedging, was $2.82 per Mcf. The average realized price for all liquids for the first quarter of 2018 was $29.15 per barrel.

CNX's weighted average differential from NYMEX in the first quarter of 2018 was negative $0.21 per MMBtu. With an improved Henry Hub price coupled with an improved differential, CNX's average sales price for natural gas before hedging improved 29% to $2.96 per Mcf compared to the average sales price of $2.29 per Mcf in the fourth quarter of 2017. Including the impact of cash settlements from hedging, the average sales price for natural gas was $0.34 per Mcf higher than the fourth quarter of 2017.

Guidance:

CNX reaffirms its 2018 production guidance of approximately 500-525 Bcfe and total 2018 capital expenditures attributable to CNX of approximately $790-$915 million.

The company also reaffirms adjusted 2018 EBITDAX attributable to CNX of $825-$850 million, which includes approximately $60-$90 million of EBITDA attributable to CNX's ownership in CNXM.

Total hedged natural gas production in the 2018 second quarter is 93.8 Bcf. The annual gas hedge position is shown in the table below:

2Includes physical sales with fixed basis in Q2 2018, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 of 24.0 Bcf, 92.6 Bcf, 102.1 Bcf, 67.2 Bcf, and 67.5 Bcf, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2018, CNX added additional NYMEX natural gas hedges of 80.5 Bcf, 41.6 Bcf, 25.6 Bcf, and 19.8 Bcf for 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 respectively. To help mitigate basis exposure on NYMEX hedges, in the first quarter CNX added 0.4 Bcf, 54.3 Bcf, 27.3 Bcf, 54.4 Bcf, and 56.8 Bcf of basis hedges for 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022, respectively.

Note: CNX is unable to provide a reconciliation of projected Adjusted EBITDAX to projected operating income, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, due to the unknown effect, timing, and potential significance of certain income statement items.

Finance:

At March 31, 2018, the company's credit facility had no borrowings outstanding and $253 million of letters of credit outstanding, leaving $1,847 million of unused capacity. In addition, CNX holds 21.7 million CNXM limited partnership units with a current market value of approximately $400 million as of April 19, 2018.

During the quarter, CNX amended and restated its senior secured revolving credit facility, which expires on March 8, 2023. The credit facility increased lenders' commitments from $1.5 billion to $2.1 billion with an accordion feature that allows the company to increase the commitments to $3.0 billion. The initial borrowing base increased from $2.0 billion to $2.5 billion.

During the quarter, CNX purchased $391 million of its outstanding 5.875% senior notes due in April 2022. As part of this transaction, a loss of $16 million was included in Loss on Debt Extinguishment on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Also during the first quarter, the company bought back 5.8 million additional shares bringing the total amount of shares repurchased since the inception of the program in October 2017 to over 13 million shares for $200 million. As of April 16, 2018, CNX's shares outstanding were 217,910,959. The company has approximately $250 million remaining on its one-year $450 million share repurchase program, which expires in September 2018.

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. Adjusted EBITDAX is defined as EBITDA after adjusting for the discrete items listed below, including exploration expense. Although EBIT, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDAX are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that they are useful to an investor in evaluating CNX Resources because they are widely used to evaluate a company's operating performance. We exclude stock-based compensation from Adjusted EBITDAX because we do not believe it accurately reflects the actual operating expense incurred during the relevant period and may vary widely from period to period irrespective of operating results. Investors should not view these metrics as a substitute for measures of performance that are calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  In addition, because all companies do not calculate EBIT, EBITDA, or Adjusted EBITDAX identically, the presentation here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Reconciliation of EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAX to financial net income attributable to CNX Resources Shareholders is as follows (dollars in 000):

Note:  Income tax effect of Total Pre-tax Adjustments (excluding exploration expense) was ($180,679) and $40,306 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, respectively. Adjusted net income attributable to CNX Resources Shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is calculated as GAAP net income attributable to CNX shareholders of $527,563 less total pre-tax adjustments from the above table of ($666,221), plus the associated tax expense of ($180,679) equals the adjusted net income attributable to CNX shareholders of $42,021.

1CNX's unallocated expenses include other expense, gain on sale of assets, loss on debt extinguishment and income taxes.

2Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling interest of $17,983 plus Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization of $2,707, plus Interest Expense of $1,699, plus Stock-based compensation of $374. Calculated by taking an average noncontrolling interest percentage of 63.91%.

Management uses net debt to determine the company's outstanding debt obligations that would not be readily satisfied by its cash and cash equivalents on hand. Management believes that using net debt attributable to CNX Resources shareholders is useful to investors in determining the company's leverage ratio since the company could choose to use its cash and cash equivalents to retire debt.

Cautionary Statements

We are including the following cautionary statement in this press release to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of us.  With the exception of historical matters, the matters discussed in this press release are forward-looking statements (as defined in 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. These forward-looking statements may include projections and estimates concerning the timing and success of specific projects and our future production, revenues, income and capital spending. When we use the words "believe," "intend," "expect," "may," "should," "anticipate," "could," "estimate," "plan," "predict," "project," "will," or their negatives, or other similar expressions, the statements which include those words are usually forward-looking statements. When we describe a strategy that involves risks or uncertainties, we are making forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release; we disclaim any obligation to update these statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. These risks, contingencies and uncertainties relate to, among other matters, the following: prices for natural gas and natural gas liquids are volatile and can fluctuate widely based upon a number of factors beyond our control including oversupply relative to the demand for our products, weather and the price and availability of alternative fuels; an extended decline in the prices we receive for our natural gas and natural gas liquids affecting our operating results and cash flows; our dependence on gathering, processing and transportation facilities and other midstream facilities owned by CNXM and others; disruption of, capacity constraints in, or proximity to pipeline systems that could limit sales of our natural gas and natural gas liquids, and decreases in availability of third-party pipelines or other midstream facilities interconnected to CNXM's gathering systems; uncertainties in estimating our economically recoverable natural gas reserves, and inaccuracies in our estimates; the high-risk nature of drilling natural gas wells; our identified drilling locations are scheduled out over multiple years, making them susceptible to uncertainties that could materially alter the occurrence or timing of their drilling; the impact of potential, as well as any adopted environmental regulations including any relating to greenhouse gas emissions on our operating costs as well as on the market for natural gas and for our securities; environmental regulations introduce uncertainty that could adversely impact the market for natural gas with potential short and long-term liabilities; the risks inherent in natural gas operations, including our reliance upon third party contractors, 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 that could impact financial results; decreases in the availability of, or increases in the price of, required personnel, services, equipment, parts and raw materials to support our operations; if natural gas prices remain depressed or drilling efforts are unsuccessful, we may be required to record write-downs of our proved natural gas properties; a loss of our competitive position because of the competitive nature of the natural gas industry or overcapacity in this industry impairing our profitability; deterioration in the economic conditions in any of the industries in which our customers operate, a domestic or worldwide financial downturn, or negative credit market conditions; hedging activities may prevent us from benefiting from price increases and may expose us to other risks; our inability to collect payments from customers if their creditworthiness declines or if they fail to honor their contracts; existing and future government laws, regulations and other legal requirements that govern our business may increase our costs of doing business and may restrict our operations; significant costs and liabilities may be incurred as a result of pipeline and related facility integrity management program testing and any related pipeline repair or preventative or remedial measures; our ability to find adequate water sources for our use in natural gas drilling, or our ability to dispose of or recycle water used or removed from strata in connection with our gas operations at a reasonable cost and within applicable environmental rules; the outcomes of various legal proceedings, including those which are more fully described in our reports filed under the Exchange Act; acquisitions and divestitures we anticipate may not occur or produce anticipated benefits; risks associated with our debt; failure to find or acquire economically recoverable natural gas reserves to replace our current natural gas reserves; decrease in our borrowing base, which could decrease for a variety of reasons including lower natural gas prices, declines in natural gas proved reserves, and lending requirements or regulations; we may operate a portion of our business with one or more joint venture partners or in circumstances where we are not the operator, which may restrict our operational and corporate flexibility and we may not realize the benefits we expect to realize from a joint venture; changes in federal or state income tax laws, particularly in the area of intangible drilling costs; challenges associated with strategic determinations, including the allocation of capital and other resources to strategic opportunities; our development and exploration projects, as well as CNXM's midstream system development, require substantial capital expenditures; terrorist attacks or cyber-attacks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations; construction of new gathering, compression, dehydration, treating or other midstream assets by CNXM may not result in revenue increases and may be subject to regulatory, environmental, political, legal and economic risks; our success depends on key members of our management and our ability to attract and retain experienced technical and other professional personnel; we may not achieve some or all of the expected benefits of the separation of CONSOL Energy; CONSOL Energy may fail to perform under various transaction agreements that were executed as part of the separation, including with respect to indemnification obligations; CONSOL Energy may not be able to satisfy its indemnification obligations in the future and such indemnities may not be sufficient to hold us harmless from the full amount of liabilities for which CONSOL Energy has been allocated responsibility; and the separation could result in substantial tax liability. Additional factors are described in detail under the captions "Forward Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as supplemented by our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
