EV Energy Partners Announces Third Quarter 2016 Results and Additional Commodity Hedges

HOUSTON, Nov. 09, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EV Energy Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ: EVEP ) today announced results for the third quarter of 2016 and the filing of its Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  In addition, EVEP has entered into additional commodity hedge positions.

Third Quarter 2016 Results

For the third quarter 2016, EVEP reported a net loss of $19.2 million, or $(0.38) per basic and diluted weighted average limited partner unit outstanding compared to a net loss of $29.0 million, or $(0.58) per basic and diluted weighted average limited partner unit outstanding for the second quarter of 2016.  Included in net loss for the third quarter of 2016 were the following items:

  • $1.9 million of non-cash costs contained in general and administrative expenses,
  • $1.6 million of non-cash losses on commodity and interest rate derivatives,
  • $1.4 million income tax refund associated with one of our partnerships,
  • $0.7 million of impairment charges related to the write down of certain oil and natural gas properties primarily due to a change in development plans, and
  • $0.3 million of dry hole and exploration costs.

For the third quarter of 2015, EVEP reported a net loss of $9.8 million, or $(0.20) per basic and diluted weighted average limited partner unit outstanding.

Production for the third quarter of 2016 was 12.5 Bcf of natural gas, 308 Mbbls of oil and 597 Mbbls of natural gas liquids, or 195.3 million cubic feet equivalent per day (Mmcfe/day).  This represents a three percent decrease from second quarter of 2016 production of 201.5 Mmcfe/day and a 27 percent increase over the third quarter of 2015 production of 153.8 Mmcfe/day.  The decrease from the second quarter of 2016 was due to the reduction in drilling activity, and the increase over the third quarter of 2015 was primarily due to the addition of producing properties acquired on October 1, 2015.

Adjusted EBITDAX for the third quarter of 2016 was $26.0 million, a two percent decrease from the second quarter of 2016 Adjusted EBITDAX of $26.5 million and a 41 percent decrease from the third quarter of 2015 Adjusted EBITDAX of $43.8 million.  Distributable Cash Flow for the third quarter of 2016 was $6.4 million compared to $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $20.1 million for the third quarter of 2015.  The increase in Distributable Cash Flow from the second quarter of 2016 was primarily attributable to a tax refund for one of the partnerships we operate.  The decreases in Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow from the third quarter of 2015 were primarily attributable to lower realized hedge gains and lower realized oil prices, partially offset by the addition of producing properties acquired on October 1, 2015 and higher realized natural gas and natural gas liquids prices.  Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow are Non-GAAP financial measures and are described in the attached table under “Non-GAAP Measures.”

“Reducing leverage and operating costs continues to be our focus, and we are pleased with our progress this year.  As announced last week, we completed our fall borrowing base redetermination and appreciate the continued support from our bank group in reaffirming our borrowing base of $450 million.  We currently have $281 million drawn on our credit facility and have over $177 million of liquidity between balance sheet cash and available borrowing base capacity.  We believe this is a sufficient amount of capital to meet all of our near term needs," said Michael Mercer, President and CEO.

Non-GAAP Measures

We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income (loss) plus income from discontinued operations, EBITDAX from discontinued operations, income taxes, interest expense, net, cash settlements of matured interest rate swaps, depreciation, depletion and amortization, accretion expense on obligations, amortization of volumetric production payment (VPP), (gain) loss on derivatives, net, cash settlements of matured derivative contracts, non-cash equity-based compensation, impairment of oil and natural gas properties,  non-cash inventory write down expense, dry hole and exploration costs, gain on sales of oil and natural gas properties, gain on settlement of contract, gain on early extinguishment of debt, and (gain) loss on sale of investment, contained in Other income, net.  Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDAX less cash income taxes, cash interest expense, net, realized losses on interest rate swaps, and estimated maintenance capital expenditures.

Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow are used by our management to provide additional information and statistics relative to the performance of our business, including (prior to the creation of any reserves) the cash available to pay distributions to our unitholders.  We believe these financial measures may indicate to investors whether or not we are generating cash flow at a level that can sustain or support quarterly distributions.  Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow are also quantitative standards used throughout the investment community with respect to performance of publicly-traded partnerships.  Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.  Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and operating income and these measures may vary among companies.  Therefore, our Adjusted EBITDAX and Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
