DENVER, Aug. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- HighPoint Resources Corporation (the "Company" or "HighPoint") (NYSE: HPR) today reported second quarter of 2018 financial and operating results, highlighted by oil volumes above the mid-point of guidance and early positive results from Hereford development activity.
For the second quarter of 2018, the Company reported a net loss of $46.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2018 was a net loss of $3.2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. EBITDAX for the second quarter of 2018 was $63.1 million. Adjusted net income (loss) and EBITDAX are non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures. Please reference the reconciliations to GAAP financial statements at the end of this release.
Chief Executive Officer and President Scot Woodall commented, "Our second quarter results demonstrate our continued operating excellence as we reported total equivalent production sales volumes within our guidance range, including oil volumes that were above the mid-point of guidance. During the second quarter, we generated EBITDAX of $63.1 million, an increase of 35% over the first quarter of 2018 and 72% over the second quarter last year. We are well positioned for continued growth with a dominant acreage position, a low cost structure, and ample liquidity of $381 million at the end of the second quarter. Combined with disciplined capital allocation across an extensive and attractive inventory of XRL drilling locations we remain well positioned for value creation.
"Operationally, our development program is on track as Hereford activity began as planned in April. Drilling of the first DSU was recently completed and we initiated production from nine DUCs. Three of the DUCs were placed on flowback in May and we are seeing positive early production data as the wells are performing consistent with our base type-curve assumptions. The early results highlight the significant resource potential of the Hereford asset. The pace of development at Hereford will increase during the second half of the year as we are currently operating two drilling rigs. NE Wattenberg also continues to see very consistent results and produced an average of 23,900 Boe/d in the second quarter of 2018, representing a 65% increase over the second quarter of 2017.
"Midstream constraints in NE Wattenberg resulted in curtailed natural gas and liquids production during the second quarter. While we had anticipated these issues, the impact was greater than forecast due to a period of unseasonably warm weather in June and July, which resulted in an increase in processing facility outages. We are adjusting our 2018 natural gas and NGL guidance to account for these temporary issues, but expect that full-year oil volumes will be relatively unchanged from previous expectations.
"I am pleased with HighPoint's ability to create long-term shareholder value through development of our extensive and favorable asset base targeting the oil-weighted and rural core of the DJ Basin. We remain positioned to deliver significant growth in production, cash flow and EBITDAX and reiterate our 2019 outlook."

The Company reported oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids ("NGL") production of 2.41 MMBoe for the second quarter of 2018, which was an increase of 58% over the second quarter of 2017. Oil volumes totaled 1.51 MMBbls, which was an increase of 67% over the second quarter of 2017. Production sales volumes from NE Wattenberg totaled 2.2 MMBoe and Hereford volumes totaled 0.2 MMBoe. Second quarter natural gas and NGL production was impacted by midstream constraints in NE Wattenberg, including high line pressures, unplanned processing facility outages due to unseasonably warm weather and lower product recoveries associated with interim processing facilities.
Production sales volumes were comprised of approximately 63% oil, 21% natural gas and 16% NGLs.
For the second quarter of 2018, WTI oil prices averaged $67.88 per barrel, NWPL natural gas prices averaged $1.95 per MMBtu and NYMEX natural gas prices averaged $2.80 per MMBtu. Commodity price realizations to benchmark pricing were oil less $2.76 per barrel versus WTI and natural gas less $0.66 per Mcf compared to NWPL. The NGL price averaged approximately 31% of the WTI price per barrel.
For the second quarter of 2018, the Company had derivative commodity swaps in place for 11,637 barrels of oil per day tied to WTI pricing at $52.98 per barrel, 5,000 MMBtu of natural gas per day tied to NWPL regional pricing at $2.68 per MMBtu and no hedges in place for NGLs.

LOE averaged $3.15 per Boe in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $3.61 per Boe in the second quarter of 2017. The year-over-year reduction in LOE is a result of improved operating efficiencies on the legacy NE Wattenberg asset and disposition of higher LOE wells in Utah.
Production tax expense averaged $4.02 per Boe in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $2.25 per Boe in the second quarter of 2017. Production tax expense averaged approximately 9% of revenues in the second quarter of 2018 compared to 7% of revenues in the second quarter of 2017. The increase was due to a higher estimated effective tax rate for Colorado severance taxes and is currently expected to approximate this level for the remainder of the year.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") averaged $21.66 per Boe in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $25.78 per Boe in the second quarter of 2017. Lower DD&A on a per unit basis compared to the second quarter of 2017 was primarily the result of proved reserves added at lower costs.

Debt and Liquidity
At June 30, 2018, the principal debt balance was $627.1 million, while cash and cash equivalents were $107.4 million, resulting in net debt of $519.7 million. Cash and cash equivalents were primarily used during the quarter to execute on the second quarter development program.
The Company currently has $274 million in available borrowing capacity on its $300 million credit facility, after taking into account a $26 million letter of credit.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2018 totaled $145.0 million. The Company operated three drilling rigs and capital projects included spudding 28 XRL wells and placing 27 XRL wells on initial flowback, including six DUCs in Hereford.
Capital expenditures included $135.4 million for drilling and completion operations, $2.0 million for leasehold, and $7.6 million for infrastructure and corporate assets.
OPERATIONAL UPDATE
The Company is operating three drilling rigs in the DJ Basin with one rig in NE Wattenberg and two rigs in Hereford. The Company currently anticipates maintaining this pace of development and plans to drill approximately 120-125 gross XRL wells in 2018. Two completion crews will be utilized in 2018 and the Company has the ability to add a third completion crew, as necessary, based on the timing of well completions.
NE Wattenberg
The Company produced an average of 23,900 Boe/d (61% oil) in the second quarter of 2018, representing a 65% increase over the second quarter of 2017. For the second quarter of 2018, the Company drilled 20 XRL wells and placed 21 XRL wells on initial flowback. The Company is currently operating a one-rig drilling program and expects to maintain this level of development activity for the remainder of the year.
Recent activity was highlighted by DSU 5-61-27, which includes 10 XRL wells and is located in the east-central portion of NE Wattenberg. Initial flowback began in the second quarter and the wells have performed consistent with the type-curve expectations. This is a step-out to DSU 5-61-20, which was placed on flowback in the fourth quarter of 2017 and continues to perform in line with the base type-curve after 260 days of production.
In addition, DSUs 4-62-28 and 4-62-33 are located in the southern portion of NE Wattenberg and were also placed on initial flowback during the second quarter. The DSUs include 10 XRL and 9 XRL wells, respectively, and continue to trend towards peak production.
The Company continues to mitigate the impact of inflationary pressure on well costs as wells drilled during the first half of 2018 averaged approximately $4.85 million, which is in line with internal expectations. In addition, total drilling and completion cycle times averaged approximately 16.5 days for the first half of 2018, which is a 6% improvement over the 2017 average and was driven by a reduction in the number of frac and drill out days.
Hereford Field
Production sales volumes for the second quarter of 2018 averaged approximately 2,550 Boe/d (79% oil). Drilling operations commenced in April on DSU 11-63-14, which includes 10 XRL wells (6 Niobrara, 4 Codell). Drilling was completed in June and it is anticipated that the wells will be placed on initial flowback during the third quarter of 2018. A full-time completion crew began operating in April and completion operations commenced on three pads (three wells each) of DUCs, which incorporated optimized completions, including controlled flowback methods. The first three wells were placed on flowback in May and continue to trend towards peak production. Early production data is encouraging as the wells are performing consistent with the base type-curve of 550 MBoe for the 60 days of production following initial oil sales. It is anticipated that peak production will be achieved after approximately 90 days of production. The remaining six DUCs were placed on production in June and July and are in the initial flowback stage.
The Company expects to maintain two drilling rigs for the remainder of the year and the focus of the 2018 program will be on full DSU development to maximize drilling and completion efficiencies. The Company has already begun to realize significant savings due to synergies generated as completion costs for the 9 DUCs were 29% below legacy completion costs. In addition, drilling costs for the initial DSU were 17% below legacy wells with drilling days to rig release averaging approximately 8.5 days per well, including a best-in-class well that was drilled in 6.9 days.
MARKETING UPDATE
The Company experienced midstream curtailments in the first half of 2018 due to high line pressures in the DJ Basin that led to minor production impacts in NE Wattenberg, but expects that line pressures and gas processing capacity will improve in the second half of 2018. Natural gas processing capacity has improved as DCP's Mewbourn 3 plant recently became operational, which increased the Company's allocated gas volumes by approximately 25%. In addition, the Company has worked diligently to diversify its gas processing capacity and has signed agreements with several third-party midstream providers that will increase the Company's available gas processing capacity by over 70% by the end of 2018. This provides the flexibility to direct approximately 35% of expected fourth quarter NE Wattenberg volumes to processing facilities outside of the legacy DCP system.
Hereford natural gas volumes are processed by Summit midstream, which is in the process of expanding its gas processing capacity to 60 MMcf/d by the end of 2018.
The Company continues to maintain no oil marketing or oil pipeline delivery commitments and expects that oil price differentials to benchmark pricing will be less than $3.00 per barrel versus WTI for the foreseeable future.

Realized and unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives are presented herein as separate line items but are combined for a total commodity derivative gain (loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This separate presentation is a non-GAAP measure. Management believes the separate presentation of the realized and unrealized commodity derivative gains and losses is useful because the realized cash settlement portion provides a better understanding of the Company's hedge position. The Company also believes that this disclosure allows for a more accurate comparison to its peers. |

Discretionary cash flow, adjusted net income (loss) and EBITDAX are non-GAAP measures. These measures are presented because management believes that they provide useful additional information to investors for analysis of the Company's performance. If used as a liquidity measure, they should be reconciled to cash flow from operations as well as adjusting net income (loss) for certain items to allow for a more consistent comparison from period to period. In addition, the Company believes that these measures are widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry, and that many investors use the published research of industry research analysts in making investment decisions.
These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating activities or other income, profitability, cash flow or liquidity measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The definition of these measures may vary among companies, and, therefore, the amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
