Jagged Peak Energy Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2018 Financial and Operating Results; Provides Updated 2018 Guidance

DENVER, Aug. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Jagged Peak Energy Inc. (NYSE: JAG) ("Jagged Peak" or the "Company") today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Jim Kleckner, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "I am pleased with our team's second quarter execution as we posted very strong results with record production volumes and increased operating efficiencies. We have started integrating the first of our licensed 3D seismic data into our drilling program, which is expected to drive enhanced well performance and program returns going forward across our acreage position.

"We have updated our 2018 program guidance, which is largely a reflection of the strong production in the second quarter and increases to our working interest, and lateral length. As a result, our production guidance for the year has increased by 12%, creating estimated annual growth of approximately 95% in 2018. Increases to our full-year working interest and average lateral length have led to a 25% increase to our net completed lateral feet in 2018 and an 18% increase to 2018 capital. As we increase second half production targets, we remain confident in our ability to get our oil to market as we are a committed shipper on the Oryx system with 60 MBbls per day of committed capacity, and have a long-term sales agreement in place for our oil with a third-party marketer. To protect the returns of this increased investment, we have significantly added to our hedge book through 2020, further insulating our cash flow from commodity price fluctuations and widening basis differentials."

Operations Update

The Company reported record production for the second quarter of 2018, with average daily production rates exceeding the top-end of the Company's guidance range. Production outperformance for the quarter was attributed to better than expected production performance from second quarter wells brought online. A few second quarter wells of note were the Company's Bigfoot 106105B-34 51H, Venom 6261D-34 1H, and Catman 6263B-34 1H wells. Performance from these wells is included in the table below.

                           Well Name Lateral Length IP30  IP30/1,000'     Oil %

    Venom 6261D-34 1H                    7,220'     1,422             197       82%

    Catman 6263B-34 1H                   5,002'       959             192       81%

The Company continues to focus its efforts on increasing operational efficiencies through faster drill times and completion stages pumped per day. During the quarter, the Company drilled a well with 21,000 foot of total measured depth (9,533 foot lateral) in 19.2 days, a Company record. From a completions standpoint, the Company increased its average stages per crew per day metric to 3.1, an increase of 20% from the first quarter of 2018, and attained a company-record 3.5 stages per crew per day on one of its wells in the second quarter.

At the end of the first quarter, the Company began utilizing its licensed 3D seismic data, covering its Cochise project area, which has resulted in a higher percentage of optimally placed lateral footage. The Company's UTL 3031B-17-2H well was geo-steered utilizing the Company's newly licensed 3D seismic data and as a result 100% of the lateral was optimally placed. This compares to an adjacent well that was drilled without the benefit of seismic data where only 23% of its lateral was optimally placed. The increased percentage optimally placed lateral footage has resulted in better well performance, with the geo-steered well outperforming the parent well 660 feet away by approximately 40% on a normalized 100-day cumulative production basis. The Company is currently participating in 3D seismic shoots for its other two areas, Whiskey River and Big Tex, and is expected to receive the processed data in the second half of 2018. For its Whiskey River project area, the Company received initial processed data from the seismic shoot and expects fully processed data, which can be utilized and integrated into its drilling program in the third quarter of 2018. In the Big Tex area, the Company is expecting initial data during the third quarter of 2018, with fully processed data in the fourth quarter of 2018. Once integrated, the processed 3D seismic data will allow for optimized lateral placement and is expected to result in improved well results across its acreage position.

Second Quarter Results

During the second quarter, the Company reported average daily production of 34.6 MBoe per day, 8% above the top-end of the Company's guidance range of 31.0 - 32.0 MBoe/d. Oil production for the quarter averaged 26.9 MBbls per day. The strong production growth in the quarter is attributed to the strong well performance from wells brought online in the quarter. Average daily production in the second quarter grew sequentially by 25% from the first quarter of 2018 and by 135% from the second quarter of 2017. Second quarter production mix was essentially unchanged from the previous quarter and was comprised of 78% oil, 12% natural gas, and 10% NGLs.

Reported revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $158.7 million, compared to revenue of $53.1 million in the second quarter of 2017. The increase in revenue in the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 was a result of increased production volumes and commodity prices for the period.

Realized prices for the second quarter of 2018 are included in the table below.

Updated 2018 Capital, Production, and Operating Guidance

The Company has performed a mid-year review of its 2018 budget and has revised its 2018 operated program to reflect longer lateral wells, higher working interests, and additional wells brought online. The updated program contemplates completing 25% more lateral feet in 2018 with an associated capital increase of 18%, and an increase to production of 12%. The increase in the Company's net activity is underpinned by its execution success over the past two quarters with increased production results, gains in drilling and completion efficiencies, and enhanced well performance. The Company retains 60 MBbls/d of committed capacity on the Oryx System with firm purchase agreements from a third-party marketer to move product out of the basin. As such, the Company remains confident in its ability to get its production to market without issue. To help protect the return from this increased capital investment, the Company has increased its hedge position on both basis differentials and WTI to provide further assurance to its 2018 and 2019 cash flows and to mitigate the risk of widening basis differentials. The Company's hedge book now covers 68% and 61% of its second half 2018 guided oil production for WTI and Mid-Cush basis differential, respectively. In 2019, the Company has hedged 7.7 MMBbls of WTI swaps with an average price of $59.95 and 8.8 MMBbls of Mid-Cush basis differential swaps at an average price of $5.92 off WTI. Details of the Company's updated hedge position are included in the schedules at the end of this release.

The Company's updated program contemplates bringing online 45 to 47 gross operated wells, compared to the original budget of 42 to 46 gross operated wells brought online, and expects to complete approximately 440,000 net lateral feet, including non-operated activity. Capital from this updated program is expected to be $668 to $702 million, with $650 to $680 million allocated to drilling and completion. This compares to the previous allocation for drilling and completion capital of $540 to $590 million. The updated program is expected to provide production volumes of 32.0 to 34.0 MBoe per day, compared to previous guidance range of 28.0 to 31.0 MBoe per day. The table below provides a summary of the Company's updated guidance:

During the second quarter, the Company closed on its previously announced private offering of $500.0 million in 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2026. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $488.7 million, a portion of which was used to repay borrowings under the revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

On August 9, 2018, the Company completed a borrowing base redetermination for its revolving credit facility. The Company's borrowing base was increased to $825.0 million, a 53% increase from the previous borrowing base of $540.0 million. As part of the redetermination, the Company has increased its elected commitments to $540.0 million up from $475.0 million, previously.

Forward Looking Statements

This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements, other than historical facts, that address activities that Jagged Peak assumes, plans, expects, believes, intends or anticipates (and other similar expressions), will, should or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current beliefs, based on currently available information, as to the outcome and timing of future events. Forward-looking statements in this release include, among other things, guidance estimates including all statements under the heading "Updated 2018 Capital, Production, and Operating Guidance"; planned 3D seismic program, the timing of the program, and its ultimate impact on well performance; expected capital expenditures, including the number of rigs and crews; expected production; and the timing of the Company becoming cash flow positive. These forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause the results to differ materially from those expected by the management of Jagged Peak. General risk factors include the availability, proximity and capacity of gathering, processing and transportation facilities; the volatility and level of oil, natural gas, and NGL prices, including any impact on the Company's asset carrying values or reserves arising from price declines; uncertainties inherent in projecting future rates of production or other results from drilling and completion activities; the imprecise nature of estimating oil and gas reserves; uncertainties inherent in projecting future drilling and completion activities, costs or results; the availability of drilling, completion, and operating equipment and services; the risks associated with the Company's commodity price risk management strategy; impact of environmental events, governmental and other third-party responses to such events and Jagged Peak's ability to adequately insure against such events; and other such matters discussed in the "Risk Factors" section of Jagged Peak's 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in "Item 8.01, Other Events" of Jagged Peak's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2018, as such risk factors may be updated from time to time in the Company's other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which can be obtained free of charge on the Securities and Exchange Commission's web site at http://www.sec.gov.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDAX

Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income (loss) before interest expense, net of capitalized interest, depletion, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, exploration expenses, equity-based compensation expense, income taxes and net gains or losses on derivatives less net cash from derivative settlements. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historical costs of depreciable assets and exploration expenses, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX is useful because it allows investors to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers without regard to financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP performance measure used by management to evaluate financial performance, prior to non-cash market-to-market gains or losses on derivatives, impairment expense, exploratory dry hole costs, gain or loss on the sale of property, certain one-time items, such as certain equity-based compensation and the associated changes in estimated income tax. Management believes adjusted net income is useful because it may enhance investors' ability to assess historical and future financial performance. Adjusted net income should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance.

Cash G&A

Cash general and administrative expense a non-GAAP measure, which is defined as GAAP general and administrative expense less equity-based compensation, on the Company's statement of cash flows. The Company does not guide to GAAP general and administrative expense because of the uncertainty to its equity-based compensation expenses in any given year.

    (1) In connection with the IPO,
     management incentive units were
     converted to common stock. A
     portion of this common stock was
     transferred to JPE Management
     Holdings LLC and became subject to
     the terms and conditions of the
     amended and restated JPE
     Management Holdings LLC limited
     liability company agreement (the
     "Holdco Agreement"). The
     compensation expense related to
     these shares has primarily been
     recognized ratably as they have
     vested according to the terms of
     the Holdco Agreement. However, in
     February 2018, the Company
     incurred $71.3 million in
     accelerated compensation expense
     related to the modification of
     service requirements. Only
     compensation expense related to
     management incentive units
     allocated at the time of the IPO
     is excluded from the calculation
     of adjusted net income.

    (2) Equity-based compensation
     expense for the six months ended
     June 30, 2018 includes $75.2
     million related to management
     incentive units that converted to
     common stock in connection with
     the IPO and $2.9 million related
     to equity awards issued under the
     Company's long-term incentive
     plan.

    (3) Adjusted EBITDAX margin is
     calculated as Adjusted EBITDAX
     divided by total production,
     expressed as adjusted EBITDAX per
     Boe.
