Columbia for net proceeds of $363,000. The gain on the sale of this interest was $491,000, and is
included under Other on the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June
30, 2011. Our carrying value and associated plugging obligations related to Northeast British
Columbia previously was written off as an impairment of unproved properties during the year ended
December 31, 2009.
Consolidation, Basis of Presentation and Significant Estimates
The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited and contain all
adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of
the results for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for a full year due in part to the volatility in prices for
crude oil and natural gas, future commodity prices for commodity derivative contracts, global
economic and financial market conditions, interest rates, access to sources of liquidity, estimates
of reserves, drilling risks, geological risks, transportation restrictions, the timing of
acquisitions, product supply and demand, market competition and interruptions of production. You
should read these consolidated interim financial statements in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11,
2011.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions
are eliminated. In preparing the accompanying financial statements, we have made certain estimates
and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and disclosures of
contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Significant assumptions are required
in the valuation of proved oil and natural gas reserves, which affect the amount at which oil and
natural gas properties are recorded. Significant assumptions are also required in estimating our
accrual of capital expenditures, asset retirement obligations and share-based compensation. It is
at least reasonably possible these estimates could be revised in the near term, and these revisions
could be material. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year
presentation. These classifications have no impact on the net income reported.

2. Working Interest Acquisition
In February 2011, we acquired an additional 38% working interest in our Cinco Terry operating
area from two non-operating partners for $76 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments
(the Working Interest Acquisition). We funded the Working Interest Acquisition with cash on hand
and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

4. Revolving Credit Facility
At June 30, 2011, we had a $300 million revolving credit facility with a borrowing base set at
$200 million. The borrowing base is redetermined semi-annually on or before each April 1 and
October 1
based on our oil, NGL and gas reserves. We or the lenders can each request one additional
borrowing base redetermination each calendar year.
6
Approach Resources Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2011
The maturity date under our revolving credit facility is July 31, 2014. Borrowings bear
interest based on the agent banks prime rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to
1.75%, or the sum of the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%.
Margins vary based on the borrowings outstanding compared to the borrowing base. In addition, we
pay an annual commitment of 0.50% of unused borrowings available under our revolving credit
facility.
Effective May 4, 2011, we entered into a tenth amendment (the Tenth Amendment) to our credit
agreement, which (i) increased the borrowing base under the credit agreement to $200 million from
$150 million, (ii) increased the lenders aggregate maximum commitment to $300 million from $200
million, (iii) extended the maturity date of the credit agreement by two years to July 31, 2014,
(iv) increased the consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDAX ratio covenant to a ratio of
not more than 4 to 1 from a ratio of not more than 3.5 to 1, (v) permitted the issuance of up to
$200 million of senior unsecured debt; provided, that any such debt issuance will reduce the
borrowing base by 25% of the principal amount of the issuance, and (vi) added a fifth bank, Royal
Bank of Canada, to the lending group.
The Tenth Amendment also revised the applicable rate schedule to decrease the Eurodollar rate
margin to a range of 1.75% to 2.75% from a range of 2.25% to 3.25% and decreased the base rate
margin to a range of 0.75% to 1.75% from a range of 1.25% to 2.25%, each determined by the
then-current percentage of the borrowing base that is drawn.
We had outstanding borrowings of $93.6 million under our revolving credit facility at June 30,
2011. We had no outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2010. The interest rate applicable to our
revolving credit facility at June 30, 2011, was 2.71%. We also had outstanding unused letters of
credit under our revolving credit facility totaling $350,000 at June 30, 2011, which reduce amounts
available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility.
Loans under our revolving credit facility are secured by first priority liens on substantially
all of our West Texas assets and are guaranteed by our subsidiaries.
Covenants
Our credit agreement contains two principal financial covenants:
|
|
|
a consolidated modified current ratio covenant that requires us to maintain a ratio
of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 at all times. The consolidated modified current ratio is
calculated by dividing Consolidated Current Assets (as defined in the credit agreement)
by Consolidated Current Liabilities (as defined in the credit agreement). As defined
more specifically in the credit agreement, the consolidated modified current ratio is
calculated as current assets less current unrealized gains on commodity derivatives
plus the available borrowing base at the respective balance sheet date, divided by
current liabilities less current unrealized losses on commodity derivatives at the
respective balance sheet date. |
|
|
|
|
a consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDAX ratio covenant that requires us to maintain a
ratio of not more than 4.0 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter. The consolidated funded debt
to consolidated EBITDAX ratio is calculated by dividing Consolidated Funded Debt (as defined in the
credit agreement)
by Consolidated EBITDAX (as defined in the credit agreement). As defined more specifically in the
credit agreement, consolidated EBITDAX is calculated as net income (loss), plus (1) exploration
expense, (2) depletion, depreciation and amortization expense, (3) share-based compensation
expense, (4) unrealized loss on |
7
Approach Resources Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2011
|
|
|
commodity derivatives, (5) interest expense, (6) income and franchise taxes and (7)
certain other noncash expenses, less (x) gains or losses from sales or dispositions of
assets, (y) unrealized gain on commodity derivatives and (z) extraordinary or
nonrecurring gains. For purposes of calculating this ratio, consolidated EBITDAX for a
fiscal quarter is annualized pursuant to the credit agreement. |
Our credit agreement also restricts cash dividends and other restricted payments, transactions
with affiliates, incurrence of other debt, consolidations and mergers, the level of operating
leases, assets sales, investments in other entities and liens on properties.
In addition, our credit agreement contains customary events of default that would permit our
lenders to accelerate the debt under our credit agreement if not cured within applicable grace
periods, including, among others, failure to make payments of principal or interest when due,
materially incorrect representations and warranties, failure to make mandatory prepayments in the
event of borrowing base deficiencies, breach of covenants, defaults upon other obligations in
excess of $500,000, events of bankruptcy, the occurrence of one or more unstayed judgments in
excess of $500,000 not covered by an acceptable policy of insurance, failure to pay any obligation
in excess of $500,000 owed under any derivatives transaction or in any amount if the obligation
under the derivatives transaction is secured by collateral under the credit agreement, any event of
default by the Company occurs under any agreement entered into in connection with a derivatives
transaction, liens securing the loans under the credit agreement cease to be in place, a Change in
Control (as defined in the credit agreement) of the Company occurs, and dissolution of the Company.
At June 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all of our covenants and had not committed any
acts of default under the credit agreement.
5. Commitments and Contingencies
Approach Operating, LLC v. EnCana Oil & Gas (USA) Inc., Cause No. 29.070A, District Court of
Limestone County, Texas. On July 2, 2009, our operating subsidiary filed a lawsuit against EnCana
Oil & Gas (USA) Inc. (EnCana) for breach of the joint operating agreement (JOA) covering our
North Bald Prairie project in East Texas and seeking damages for nonpayment of amounts owed under
the JOA as well as declaratory relief. We contend that such amounts owed by EnCana are at least $2
million, plus attorneys fees, costs and other amounts to which we might be entitled under law or
in equity. The amount owed to us is included in other non-current assets on our balance sheet at
June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010. As we previously have disclosed, in December 2008, EnCana
notified us that it was exercising its right to become operator of record for joint interest wells
in North Bald Prairie under an operator election agreement between the parties. EnCana contends
that it does not owe us for part or all of joint interest billings incurred after EnCana provided
us with notice of EnCanas election to assume operatorship in December 2008. EnCana also contends
that certain of the disputed operations were unnecessary, while other charges are improper because
we failed to obtain EnCanas consent under the JOA prior to undertaking the operations.
We have entered into an 18-month contract for a dedicated, third-party fracture stimulation
fleet, effective September 1, 2011. The contract requires a minimum commitment of $3 million per
month for the contract term. The contract contains customary, early termination provisions for a
monthly fee of less than the minimum monthly commitment in the event of a termination before the
end of the contract term.
We also are involved in various other legal and regulatory proceedings arising in the normal
course of business. While we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings with certainty, we do
not believe that an adverse result in any pending legal or regulatory proceeding, individually or
in the
8

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2011
aggregate, would be material to our
consolidated financial condition or cash flows; however,
an unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for a
specific interim period or year.
6. Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, was 35.5%. Total income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011,
differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax income
due primarily to state taxes and the impact of permanent differences between book and taxable
income.
The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, was 32% and
36%, respectively. Total income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010,
differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax income
due to the impact of permanent differences between book and taxable income.

Unrealized gains and losses, at fair value, are included on our consolidated balance
sheets as current or non-current assets or liabilities based on the anticipated timing of cash
settlements under the related contracts. Changes in the fair value of our commodity derivative
contracts are recorded in earnings as they occur and included in other income (expense) on our
consolidated statements of operations. We estimate the fair values of swap contracts based on the
present value of the difference in exchange-quoted forward price curves and contractual settlement
prices multiplied by notional quantities. We internally valued the option contracts using
industry-standard option pricing models and observable market inputs. We use our internal
valuations to determine the fair values of the contracts that are reflected on our consolidated
balance sheets. Realized gains and losses are also included in other income (expense) on our
consolidated statements of operations.
We are exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties on our
commodity derivatives positions and have considered the exposure in our internal valuations.
However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties over the term of the commodity
derivatives positions.
To estimate the fair value of our commodity derivatives positions, we use market data or
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including
assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These
inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable. We primarily apply
the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and attempt to use the best available
information. We determine the fair value based upon the hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used
to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and lowest priority to
unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of fair value hierarchy are as follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities as of the reporting date. At June 30, 2011, we had no Level 1
measurements. |
|
|
|
|
Level 2 Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which
are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those
financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models
are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward
prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors and current |
10
Approach Resources Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2011
|
|
|
market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other
relevant economic measures. Our derivatives, which consist primarily of commodity swaps
and collars, are valued using commodity market data which is derived by combining raw
inputs and quantitative models and processes to generate forward curves. Where
observable inputs are available, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full
term of the asset or liability, the instrument is categorized in Level 2. At June 30,
2011, all of our commodity derivatives were valued using Level 2 measurements. |
|
|
|
|
Level 3 Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less
observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed
methodologies that result in managements best estimate of fair value. At June 30,
2011, our Level 3 measurements were limited to our asset retirement obligation. |
8. Share-Based Compensation
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we made a grant of 204,000 restricted shares of
common stock to our executive officers. The total fair market value of these shares on the grant
date was approximately $6.5 million, which will be expensed over a service period of approximately
four years, subject to certain performance measures. We recognized $1.2 million in share-based
compensation expense related to this grant during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
The following discussion is intended to assist in understanding our results of operations and
our financial condition. This section should be read in conjunction with managements discussion
and analysis contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010,
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 11, 2011. Our consolidated
financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q contain additional information that should be referred to when reviewing this material.
Certain statements in this discussion may be forward-looking. These forward-looking statements
involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in
this report. A glossary containing the meaning of the oil and gas industry terms used in this
managements discussion and analysis follows the Results of Operations table in this Item 2.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Various statements in this report, including those that express a belief, expectation or
intention, as well as those that are not statements of historical fact, are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The forward-looking
statements may include projections and estimates concerning the timing and success of specific
projects, typical well economics and our future reserves, production, revenues, costs, income,
capital spending, 3-D seismic operations, interpretation and results and obtaining permits and
regulatory approvals. When used in this report, the words will, believe, intend, expect,
may, should, anticipate, could, estimate, plan, predict, project, potential or
their negatives, other similar expressions or the statements that include those words, are intended
to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such
identifying words.
These forward-looking statements are largely based on our expectations, which reflect
estimates and assumptions made by our management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best
judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors. Although we believe such
estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of
risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. In addition, managements assumptions about
future events may prove to be inaccurate. We caution all readers that the forward-looking
statements contained in this report are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure
any reader that such statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances
will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the
forward-looking statements due to the factors listed or referred to in the Risk Factors section
and elsewhere in this report. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this
report. We expressly disclaim all responsibility to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These cautionary statements
qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf. The
risks, contingencies and uncertainties relate to, among other matters, the following:
|
|
|
our business strategy, including our ability to recover oil and gas in place
associated with our Wolffork oil resource play in the Permian Basin; |
|
|
|
|
estimated quantities of oil, NGL and gas reserves; |
|
|
|
|
uncertainty of commodity prices in oil, gas and NGLs; |
|

Overview
Approach Resources Inc. (Approach, the Company, we, us or our) is an independent
energy company engaged in the exploration, development, production and acquisition of oil and gas
properties. We focus on oil and natural gas reserves in oil shale and tight sands. Our management
and technical team has a proven track record of finding and developing reservoirs through advanced
completion, fracturing and drilling techniques. Our core properties are primarily located in the
Permian Basin in West Texas (Clearfork, Wolfcamp Shale, Canyon Sands, Strawn and Ellenburger). We
also own interests in the East Texas Basin (Cotton Valley Sands and Cotton Valley Lime) and in the
Chama Basin in Northern New Mexico (Mancos Shale). As the operator of all of our estimated proved
reserves and production, we have a high degree of control over capital expenditures and other
operating matters.
At June 30, 2011, we had estimated proved oil and gas reserves of 66.8 MMBoe. Our reserve
base is 55% oil and NGLs, 45% natural gas and 50% proved developed. Over 97% of our proved
reserves and production are located in the Permian Basin in Crockett and Schleicher Counties,
Texas. Our acreage position in the Permian Basin totals approximately 140,400 net, primarily
contiguous acres and is characterized by multiple oil and liquids-rich formations. Our 2011
drilling program includes operating three rigs to target the Wolffork, the Wolfcamp Shale and the
Canyon Sands and deeper zones. We refer to our drilling program in the Permian Basin as Project
Pangea and Pangea West.
Mid-Year 2011 Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
The following table sets forth summary information regarding our estimated proved reserves as
of June 30, 2011. We determined the natural gas equivalent of oil and NGLs by using a conversion
ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of oil or NGLs. The standardized measure of discounted
future net cash flows (the Standardized Measure) for our proved reserves at June 30, 2011, was
$328.7 million. The PV-10 of our estimated proved reserves at June 30, 2011, was $521.2 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we engaged DeGolyer and MacNaughton, independent,
third-party reserves engineers, to prepare independent estimates of our proved reserves. Estimates
of the PV-10 of our proved reserves were prepared by the Companys internal reservoir engineers.
Proved reserves volumes and PV-10 were prepared using $85.92 per Bbl of oil, $44.96 per Bbl of NGLs
and $3.98 per Mcf of natural gas. All prices were adjusted for energy content, quality and basis
differentials by field and were held constant through the lives of the properties.
14
PV-10 is our estimate of the present value of future net revenues from proved oil and gas
reserves after deducting estimated production and ad valorem taxes, future capital costs and
operating expenses, but before deducting any estimates of future income taxes. PV-10 is a
non-GAAP, financial measure and generally differs from the Standardized Measure, the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measure, because it does not include the effects of income taxes on
future cash flows. PV-10 should not be considered as an alternative to the Standardized Measure as
computed under GAAP.
The following table shows our reconciliation of our PV-10 to the Standardized Measure. The
estimated future net revenues are discounted at an annual rate of 10% to determine their present
value.

We believe PV-10 to be an important measure for evaluating the relative significance of
our oil and gas properties and that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure of PV-10
provides useful information to investors because it is widely used by professional analysts and
sophisticated investors in evaluating oil and gas companies. Because there are many unique factors
that can impact an individual company when estimating the amount of future income taxes to be paid,
we believe the use of a pre-tax measure is valuable for evaluating our company. We believe that
most other companies in the oil and gas industry calculate PV-10 on the same basis.
Second Quarter of 2011 Activity
During the second quarter of 2011, we drilled a total of 15 wells, completed 16 wells and
recompleted three wells. Through June 30, 2011, we drilled 32 gross (28.2 net) wells, completed 32
gross (26.7 net) wells and recompleted four gross (four net) wells. At June 30, 2011, we had five
wells waiting on completion. We currently have one horizontal rig and two vertical rigs running in
Project Pangea. At June 30, 2011, we owned working interests in approximately 604 producing oil
and gas wells.

Results of Operations
The following table sets forth summary information regarding oil, NGL and gas revenues,
production, average product prices and average production costs and expenses for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. We determined the barrel of oil equivalent using the ratio of
six Mcf of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent, and one barrel of NGLs to one barrel of oil
equivalent.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2011, Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2010
Oil, NGL and gas sales. Oil, NGL and gas sales increased $16 million, or 121%, for the three
months ended June 30, 2011, to $29.1 million, from $13.2 million for the three months ended June
30, 2010. Of the $16 million increase in oil, NGL and gas sales, approximately $14.4 million was
attributable to an increase in production volumes and $1.6 million was attributable to an increase
in oil and NGL prices. Subject to commodity prices, we expect our 2011 oil, NGL and gas sales to
continue to increase over 2010 prior periods due to increased production volumes from our drilling
program in the Permian Basin, the acquisition of additional working interest in northwest Project
Pangea in first quarter 2011 (the Working Interest Acquisition) and realization of NGL revenues
in Ozona Northeast resulting from a gas purchase and processing contract that provides for the sale
of NGLs from the gas stream in the southeast portion of Project Pangea.
Our average realized prices for the three months ended June 30, 2011, before the effect of
commodity derivatives, were $97.89 per Bbl of oil, $51.88 per Bbl of NGLs and $4.16 per Mcf of
natural gas, compared to $73.26 per Bbl of oil, $40.33 per Bbl of NGLs and $4.41 per Mcf of natural
gas, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Our average realized price, including the effect of
commodity derivatives, was $48.01 per Boe for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to
$40.11 per Boe for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The regional index prices that we use to
price our oil, NGL and gas sales sometimes reflect a discount to the relevant benchmark prices,
such as New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) and West Texas Intermediate (WTI). The difference
between the benchmark price and the price we reference in our sales contacts is called a
differential. We currently expect our 2011 oil price differential to increase over 2010 prior
periods due to increased activity levels in the Permian Basin and demand for oil haulers in the
region.
Oil, NGL and gas production. Production for the three months ended June 30, 2011, totaled 608
MBoe (6.7 MBoe/d), compared to 372 MBoe (4.1 MBoe/d) produced in the prior year period, an increase
of 63%. Production for the three months ended June 30, 2011, was 56% oil and NGLs and 44% natural
gas, compared to 30% oil and NGLs and 70% natural gas in the prior year period. The increase in
production in the 2011 period is the result of our continued development of our Permian Basin
properties, the Working Interest Acquisition and processing NGLs in the southeast portion of
Project Pangea. We expect 2011 production to continue to increase over 2010 prior periods due to
the Working Interest Acquisition, our expected drilling program in the Permian Basin and the
processing of NGLs from the gas stream in the southeast portion of Project Pangea.
Commodity derivative activities. Our commodity derivative activity resulted in a realized gain
of $66,000 and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Realized gains and losses on commodity derivatives are derived from the relative movement of
commodity prices in relation to the fixed notional pricing in our price collars, options and swaps
for the applicable periods. The unrealized gain on commodity derivatives was $2.2 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to an unrealized loss of $1.9 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2010. As commodity prices increase, the fair value of the open portion of
those positions decreases. As commodity prices decrease, the fair value of the open portion of
those positions increases. Historically, we have not designated our derivative instruments as
cash-flow hedges. We record our open derivative instruments at
17
fair value on our consolidated balance sheets as either unrealized gains or losses on
commodity derivatives. We record changes in such fair value in net income on our consolidated
statements of operations under the caption entitled unrealized gain (loss) on commodity
derivatives.
Lease operating expenses. Our lease operating expenses (LOE) increased $1.4 million, or 64%,
for the three months ended June 30, 2011, to $3.6 million ($5.93 per Boe) from $2.2 million ($5.93
per Boe) for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in LOE for the three months ended
June 30, 2011, was primarily attributable to the Working Interest Acquisition. In February 2011,
we acquired the remaining 38% working interest in northwest Project Pangea, which increased our
working interest to approximately 100%. We also experienced an increase in repair and maintenance
expenses as well as generally higher service costs. Higher production volumes during the three
months ended June 30, 2011, resulted in consistent LOE per Boe, compared to the three months ended
June 30, 2010.
The following table summarizes LOE (per Boe).

Severance and production taxes. Our severance and production taxes increased $1.1
million, or 179%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, to $1.7 million from $610,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in severance and production taxes was primarily the
result of an increase in oil, NGL and gas sales between the two periods. Severance and production
taxes were approximately 5.8% and 4.6% of oil, NGL and gas sales for the respective periods. For
the remainder of 2011, we expect severance and production taxes as a percent of oil, NGL and gas
sales will remain relatively consistent compared to the severance and production taxes for the six
months ended June 30, 2011.
Exploration. We recorded $280,000 ($0.46 per Boe) and $187,000 ($0.50 per Boe) of exploration
expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Exploration expense for
the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, includes leases extensions and costs related to
acquisition of 3-D seismic data.
General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses (G&A) increased $2.4
million, or 111%, to $4.6 million ($7.55 per Boe) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, from
$2.2 million ($5.87 per Boe) for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in G&A was
principally due to higher share-based compensation, salaries and benefits and professional fees.
As discussed in Note 8 to our financial statements in this report, during the three months ended
June 30, 2011, we recognized $1.2 million in share-based compensation expense related to a grant of
204,000 restricted shares of common stock to our executive officers. For 2011, we expect G&A to be
higher, compared to 2010, as a result of higher share-based compensation and staffing increases
during 2010.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization. Our depletion, depreciation and amortization
expense (DD&A) increased $3 million, or 59%, to $8 million for the three months ended June 30,
2011, from $5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Our DD&A per Boe decreased by
$0.33, or 2%, to $13.14 per Boe for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $13.47 per
Boe for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in DD&A per Boe was primarily
attributable to an increase in estimated proved developed reserves, partially offset by an increase
in production and capitalized costs over the prior year period.
Interest expense, net. Our interest expense, net, increased $313,000, or 57%, to $863,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 2011, from $550,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. This
increase was the result of higher average debt level in the 2011 period.
Income taxes. Our income taxes increased $3.7 million to $4.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2011, from $730,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in income
taxes was due to higher net income in the 2011 period. Our effective income tax rate for the three
months ended June 30, 2011, was 35.5%, compared with 32% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2011, Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Oil, NGL and gas sales. Oil, NGL and gas sales increased $22.9 million, or 87%, for the six
months ended June 30, 2011, to $49.3 million, from $26.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
2010. Of the $22.9 million increase in oil, NGL and gas sales, approximately $21.9 million was
attributable to an increase in production volumes and $1 million was attributable to an increase in
oil and NGL prices. Subject to commodity prices, we expect our 2011 oil, NGL and gas sales to
continue to increase over 2010 prior periods due to increased production volumes from our drilling
program in the Permian Basin, the Working Interest Acquisition and realization of NGL revenues in
Ozona Northeast resulting from a gas purchase and processing contract that provides for the sale of
NGLs from the gas stream in the southeast portion of Project Pangea.
Our average realized prices for the six months ended June 30, 2011, before the effect of
commodity derivatives, were $94.57 per Bbl of oil, $50.70 per Bbl of NGLs and $4.23 per Mcf of
natural gas, compared to $74.27 per Bbl of oil, $41.65 per Bbl of NGLs and $4.88 per Mcf of natural
gas, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our average realized price, including the effect of
commodity derivatives, was $46.02 per Boe for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to
$40.42 per Boe for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The regional index prices that we use to
price our oil, NGL and gas sales sometimes reflect a discount to the relevant benchmark prices,
such as NYMEX and WTI. The difference between the benchmark price and the price we reference in
our sales contacts is called a
19
differential. We currently expect our 2011 oil price differential to increase over 2010 prior
periods due to increased activity levels in the Permian Basin and demand for oil haulers in the
region.
Oil, NGL and gas production. Production for the six months ended June 30, 2011, totaled 1,077
MBoe (6 MBoe/d), compared to 702 MBoe (3.9 MBoe/d) produced in the prior year period, an increase
of 53%. Production for the six months ended June 30, 2011, was 50% oil and NGLs and 50% natural
gas, compared to 29% oil and NGLs and 71% natural gas in the prior year period. The increase in
production in the 2011 period is the result of our continued development of our Permian Basin
properties, the Working Interest Acquisition and processing NGLs in the southeast portion of
Project Pangea. We expect production to continue to increase during 2011 due to the Working
Interest Acquisition, our expected drilling program in the Permian Basin and the processing of NGLs
from the gas stream in the southeast portion of Project Pangea.
Commodity derivative activities. Our commodity derivative activity resulted in a realized gain
of $262,000 and $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Realized gains and losses on commodity derivatives are derived from the relative movement of
commodity prices in relation to the fixed notional pricing in our price collars, options and swaps
for the applicable periods. The unrealized gain on commodity derivatives was $2.1 million and $3.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As commodity prices
increase, the fair value of the open portion of those positions decreases. As commodity prices
decrease, the fair value of the open portion of those positions increases. Historically, we have
not designated our derivative instruments as cash-flow hedges. We record our open derivative
instruments at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets as either unrealized gains or losses
on commodity derivatives. We record changes in such fair value in net income on our consolidated
statements of operations under the caption entitled unrealized gain (loss) on commodity
derivatives.
Lease operating expenses. Our lease operating expenses (LOE) increased $2.2 million, or 55%,
for the six months ended June 30, 2011, to $6.3 million ($5.81 per Boe) from $4 million ($5.76 per
Boe) for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in LOE for the six months ended June 30,
2011, was primarily attributable to the Working Interest Acquisition. In February 2011, we
acquired the remaining 38% working interest in northwest Project Pangea, which increased our
working interest to approximately 100%. We also experienced an increase in repair and maintenance
expenses partially due to inclement winter weather in southwest Texas in the first quarter of 2011.
Higher production volumes during the six months ended June 30, 2011, however, resulted in
consistent LOE per Boe, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
The following table summarizes LOE (per Boe).

Severance and production taxes. Our severance and production taxes increased $1.5
million, or 115%, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, to $2.8 million from $1.3 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in severance and production taxes was primarily a
function of the increase in
20
oil, NGL and gas sales between the two periods. Severance and production taxes were
approximately 5.7% and 4.9% of oil, NGL and gas sales for the respective periods. For the
remainder of 2011, we expect severance and production taxes as a percent of oil, NGL and gas sales
will remain relatively consistent compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Exploration. We recorded $4.9 million ($4.56 per Boe) and $1.7 million ($2.39 per Boe) of
exploration expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Exploration
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011, resulted primarily from the timing of lease
extensions and expirations in the Permian Basin. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we
extended the acreage terms for an additional four years for approximately 9,200 acres in the
northwest area of Project Pangea for $3.2 million, or approximately $350 per acre. Further,
approximately 5,000 acres in the southeast area of Project Pangea expired during the three months
ended March 31, 2011, resulting in approximately $1.2 million of exploration expense. We expect
exploration expense to increase from 2010 levels during the remainder of 2011 due to lease
extensions and planned 3-D seismic activity in Pangea West and Project Pangea. Exploration expense
for the six months ended June 30, 2010, resulted primarily from our acquisition of 3-D seismic data
across Cinco Terry.
General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses (G&A) increased $3.4
million, or 73%, to $8.1 million ($7.51 per Boe) for the six months ended June 30, 2011, from $4.7
million ($6.68 per Boe) for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in G&A was
principally due to higher share-based compensation, salaries and benefits, professional fees and
data processing. As discussed in Note 8 to our financial statements in this report, during the six
months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized $1.2 million in share-based compensation expense related
to a grant of 204,000 restricted shares of common stock to our executive officers. For 2011, we
expect G&A to be higher, compared to 2010, as a result of higher share-based compensation and
staffing increases during 2010.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization. Our depletion, depreciation and amortization
expense (DD&A) increased $3.2 million, or 29%, to $14 million for the six months ended June 30,
2011, from $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our DD&A per Boe decreased by
$2.41, or 16%, to $13.04 per Boe for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $15.45 per Boe
for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in DD&A per Boe was primarily attributable to
an increase in estimated proved developed reserves, partially offset by an increase in production
and capitalized costs over the prior year period.
Interest expense, net. Our interest expense, net, increased $359,000, or 35%, to $1.4 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2011, from $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
This increase was the result of higher average debt level in the 2011 period.
21
Income taxes. Our income taxes increased $2.3 million, or 81%, to $5.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2011, from $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase
in income taxes was due to higher net income in the 2011 period. Our effective income tax rate for
the six months ended June 30, 2011, was 35.5%, compared with 36.0% for the six months ended June
30, 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We generally will rely on cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving
credit facility and, to the extent that credit and capital market conditions will allow, future
public or private equity and debt offerings to satisfy our liquidity needs. Our ability to fund
planned capital expenditures and to make acquisitions depends upon our future operating
performance, availability of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and more broadly, on
the availability of equity and debt financing, which is affected by prevailing economic conditions
in our industry and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.
We cannot predict whether additional liquidity from equity or debt financings beyond our revolving
credit facility will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, in the foreseeable future.
Our cash flows from operations are driven by commodity prices, production volumes and the
effect of commodity derivatives. Prices for oil and gas are affected by national and international
economic and political environments, national and global supply and demand for hydrocarbons,
seasonal influences of weather and other factors beyond our control. Cash flows from operations
are primarily used to fund exploration and development of our oil and gas properties.
We believe we have adequate liquidity from cash generated from operations and unused borrowing
capacity under our revolving credit facility for current working capital needs and maintenance of
our current drilling program. However, we may determine to access the public or private equity or
debt markets for future development of reserves, acquisitions, expansion of our current drilling
program, additional working capital or other liquidity needs, if such financing is available on
acceptable terms. We cannot guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at
all.
Liquidity
We define liquidity as funds available under our revolving credit facility plus cash and cash
equivalents. At June 30, 2011, we had $93.6 million in long-term debt outstanding. We had no
long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2010. Our liquidity was $106.9 million and $173.1
million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
The table below summarizes our liquidity position at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010
(dollars in thousands).

In February 2011, we acquired the remaining 38% working interest in Cinco Terry from two
non-operating partners for $76 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The Working
Interest Acquisition was funded with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on
hand.
Working Capital
Our working capital is affected primarily by our cash and cash equivalents balance and our
capital expenditure program. We had a working capital deficit of $22.5 million at June 30, 2011,
compared to a working capital surplus of $12.1 million at December 31, 2010. The primary reason
for the change in working capital was the use of cash to partially fund the Working Interest
Acquisition. As a result of the Working Interest Acquisition and our planned capital expenditure
budget for 2011, we expect to continue to operate and end the year 2011 with a working capital
deficit. Historically, our working capital deficits have been substantially attributable to
accrued liabilities and have been more than offset by liquidity available under our revolving
credit facility. To the extent we operate or end the year 2011 with a working capital deficit, we
expect such deficit to be more than offset by liquidity available under our revolving credit
facility.
Cash Flows

thousands).

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our primary sources of cash were from financing
activities and operating activities. Approximately $93.2 million of cash from financing activities
and $46.1 million of cash from operations were used to fund a portion of our drilling program.
Operating Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our cash flows from operations, borrowings under our
revolving credit facility and available cash were used primarily for drilling activities and
leasehold acquisitions in our operating area in the Permian Basin. Cash flows from operating
activities increased by 151%, or $27.7 million, to $46.1 million from the 2010 period primarily due
to a 87% increase in oil, NGL and gas sales in the 2011 period.
Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities increased by $131.6 million for six months ended June
30, 2011, compared to the 2010 period, which primarily reflects the acquisition of the remaining
38% working interest in Cinco Terry for $70.2 million, net of purchase price adjustments, and
expenditures for drilling and lease acquisitions in our core operating area in the Permian Basin.
23
Financing Activities
Proceeds from borrowings, net of debt issuance costs, were $118.7 million and $51.2 million,
respectively, under our revolving credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and
2010, respectively. We repaid a total of $26 million and $41.7 million, respectively, of amounts
outstanding under our revolving credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
respectively. In addition, in the six months ended June 30, 2011, we realized proceeds of $505,000
from the exercise of stock options.
Our current goal is to manage our borrowings to help us maintain financial flexibility and
liquidity, and to avoid the problems associated with highly-leveraged companies with large interest
costs and possible debt reductions restricting ongoing operations.
2011 Capital Expenditures
Total capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $220 million, with approximately
$130 million allocated to drilling and recompletion projects in the Permian Basin and approximately
$90 million allocated to the acquisition of the remaining 38% working interest in northwest Project
Pangea, lease extensions, renewals and acquisitions in the Permian Basin and the acquisition of 3-D
seismic in the Permian Basin.
Our 2011 capital budget is subject to change depending upon a number of factors, including
additional data on our Wolffork oil shale resource play, results of Wolfcamp Shale and Wolffork
drilling and recompletions, economic and industry conditions at the time of drilling, prevailing
and anticipated prices for oil, gas and NGLs, the availability of sufficient capital resources for
drilling prospects, our financial results and the availability of lease extensions and renewals on
reasonable terms.
Revolving Credit Facility
At June 30, 2011, we had a $300 million revolving credit facility with a borrowing base set at
$200 million. The borrowing base is redetermined semi-annually on or before each April 1 and
October 1 based on our oil, NGL and gas reserves. We or the lenders can each request one additional
borrowing base redetermination each calendar year.
The maturity date under our revolving credit facility is July 31, 2014. Borrowings bear
interest based on the agent banks prime rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to
1.75%, or the sum of the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%.
Margins vary based on the borrowings outstanding compared to the borrowing base. In addition, we
pay an annual commitment of 0.50% of unused borrowings available under our revolving credit
facility.
Effective May 4, 2011, we entered into a tenth amendment (the Tenth Amendment) to our credit
agreement, which (i) increased the borrowing base under the credit agreement to $200 million from
$150 million, (ii) increased the lenders aggregate maximum commitment to $300 million from $200
million, (iii) extended the maturity date of the credit agreement by two years to July 31, 2014,
(iv) increased the consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDAX ratio covenant to a ratio of
not more than 4 to 1 from a ratio of not more than 3.5 to 1, (v) permitted the issuance of up to
$200 million of senior unsecured debt; provided, that any such debt issuance will reduce the
borrowing base by 25% of the principal amount of the issuance, and (vi) added a fifth bank, Royal
Bank of Canada, to the lending group.
24
The Tenth Amendment also revised the applicable rate schedule to decrease the Eurodollar rate
margin to a range of 1.75% to 2.75% from a range of 2.25% to 3.25% and decreased the base rate
margin to a range of 0.75% to 1.75% from a range of 1.25% to 2.25%, each determined by the
then-current percentage of the borrowing base that is drawn.
We had outstanding borrowings of $93.6 million under our revolving credit facility at June 30,
2011. We had no outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2010. The interest rate applicable to our
revolving credit facility at June 30, 2011, was 2.71%. We also had outstanding unused letters of
credit under our revolving credit facility totaling $350,000 at June 30, 2011, which reduce amounts
available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility.
Loans under our revolving credit facility are secured by first priority liens on substantially
all of our West Texas assets and are guaranteed by our subsidiaries.
Covenants
Our credit agreement contains two principal financial covenants:
|
|
|
a consolidated modified current ratio covenant that requires us to maintain a ratio
of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 at all times. The consolidated modified current ratio is
calculated by dividing Consolidated Current Assets (as defined in the credit agreement)
by Consolidated Current Liabilities (as defined in the credit agreement). As defined
more specifically in the credit agreement, the consolidated modified current ratio is
calculated as current assets less current unrealized gains on commodity derivatives
plus the available borrowing base at the respective balance sheet date, divided by
current liabilities less current unrealized losses on commodity derivatives at the
respective balance sheet date. |
|
|
|
|
a consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDAX ratio covenant that requires us
to maintain a ratio of not more than 4.0 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter. The
consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDAX ratio is calculated by dividing
Consolidated Funded Debt (as defined in the credit agreement) by Consolidated EBITDAX
(as defined in the credit agreement). As defined more specifically in the credit
agreement, consolidated EBITDAX is calculated as net income (loss), plus (1)
exploration expense, (2) depletion, depreciation and amortization expense, (3)
share-based compensation expense, (4) unrealized loss on commodity derivatives, (5)
interest expense, (6) income and franchise taxes and (7) certain other noncash
expenses, less (x) gains or losses from sales or dispositions of assets, (y) unrealized
gain on commodity derivatives and (z) extraordinary or nonrecurring gains. For
purposes of calculating this ratio, consolidated EBITDAX for a fiscal quarter is
annualized pursuant to the credit agreement. |
Our credit agreement also restricts cash dividends and other restricted payments, transactions
with affiliates, incurrence of other debt, consolidations and mergers, the level of operating
leases, assets sales, investments in other entities and liens on properties.
In addition, our credit agreement contains customary events of default that would permit our
lenders to accelerate the debt under our credit agreement if not cured within applicable grace
periods, including, among others, failure to make payments of principal or interest when due,
materially incorrect representations and warranties, failure to make mandatory prepayments in the
event of borrowing base deficiencies, breach of covenants, defaults upon other obligations in
excess of $500,000, events of bankruptcy, the occurrence of one or more unstayed judgments in
excess of $500,000 not covered by an acceptable policy of insurance, failure to pay any obligation
in excess of $500,000 owed under any
25
derivatives transaction or in any amount if the obligation under the derivatives transaction
is secured by collateral under the credit agreement, any event of default by the Company occurs
under any agreement entered into in connection with a derivatives transaction, liens securing the
loans under the credit agreement cease to be in place, a Change in Control (as defined in the
credit agreement) of the Company occurs, and dissolution of the Company.
At June 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all of our covenants and had not committed any
acts of default under the credit agreement.
To date we have experienced no disruptions in our ability to access our revolving credit
facility. However, our lenders have substantial ability to reduce our borrowing base on the basis
of subjective factors, including the loan collateral value that each lender, in its discretion and
using the methodology, assumptions and discount rates as such lender customarily uses in evaluating
oil and gas properties, assigns to our properties.
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations include long-term debt, daywork drilling contracts, operating
lease obligations, asset retirement obligations and employment agreements with our executive
officers. Since December 31, 2010, there have been no material changes to our contractual
obligations other than, as discussed in Note 4 to our financial statements in this report, an
increase in outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement to $93.6 million at June 30, 2011,
and an extension of the credit facility loan maturity to July 2014. In addition, as discussed in
Note 5 to our financial statements in this report, we have entered into an 18-month contract for a
dedicated, third-party fracture stimulation fleet, effective September 1, 2011. The contract
requires a minimum commitment of $3 million per month for the contract term. The contract contains
customary, early termination provisions for a monthly fee of less than the minimum monthly
commitment in the event of a termination before the end of the contract term.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
From time to time, we enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give
rise to off-balance sheet obligations. As of June 30, 2011, the off-balance sheet arrangements and
transactions that we have entered into include undrawn letters of credit, operating lease
agreements and gas delivery commitments. We do not believe that these arrangements have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenues
or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
General Trends and Outlook
Our financial results depend upon many factors, particularly the price of oil, NGLs and gas.
Commodity prices are affected by changes in market demand, which is impacted by overall economic
activity, weather, pipeline capacity constraints, estimates of inventory storage levels, gas price
differentials and other factors. As a result, we cannot accurately predict future oil, NGL and gas
prices, and therefore, we cannot determine what effect increases or decreases will have on our
capital program, production volumes and future revenues. A substantial or extended decline in oil,
NGL and gas prices could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations, quantities of oil and gas reserves that may be economically produced and
liquidity that may be accessed through our borrowing base under our revolving credit facility and
through capital markets.
In addition to production volumes and commodity prices, finding and developing sufficient
amounts of oil and gas reserves at economical costs are critical to our long-term success. Future
finding
26
and development costs are subject to changes in the industry, including the costs of
acquiring, drilling and completing our projects. We focus our efforts on increasing oil, NGL and
gas reserves and production while controlling costs at a level that is appropriate for long-term
operations. Our future cash flow from operations will depend on our ability to manage our overall
cost structure.
Like all oil and gas production companies, we face the challenge of natural production
declines. Oil and gas production from a given well naturally decreases over time. Additionally, our
reserves have a rapid initial decline. We attempt to overcome this natural decline by drilling to
develop and identify additional reserves, farm-ins or other joint drilling ventures, and by
acquisitions. However, during times of severe price declines, we may from time to time reduce
current capital expenditures and curtail drilling operations in order to preserve liquidity. A
material reduction in capital expenditures and drilling activities could materially reduce our
production volumes and revenues and increase future expected costs necessary to develop existing
reserves.
We also face the challenge of financing exploration, development and future acquisitions. We
believe we have adequate liquidity from cash generated from operations and unused borrowing
capacity under our revolving credit facility for current working capital needs and maintenance of
our current drilling program. However, we may determine to access the public or private equity or
debt markets for future development of reserves, acquisitions, expansion of our current drilling
program, additional working capital or other liquidity needs, if such financing is available on
acceptable terms. We cannot guarantee that such financing will be available on acceptable terms or
at all.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Some of the information below contains forward-looking statements. The primary objective of
the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information
about our potential exposure to market risks. The term market risk refers to the risk of loss
arising from adverse changes in oil and gas prices, and other related factors. The disclosure is
not meant to be a precise indicator of expected future losses, but rather an indicator of
reasonably possible losses. This forward-looking information provides an indicator of how we view
and manage our ongoing market risk exposures. Our market risk sensitive instruments were entered
into for commodity derivative and investment purposes, not for trading purposes.
Commodity Price Risk
Given the current economic outlook, we expect commodity prices to remain volatile. Even
modest decreases in commodity prices can materially affect our revenues and cash flow. In
addition, if commodity prices remain suppressed for a significant amount of time, we could be
required under successful efforts accounting rules to perform a write down of our oil and gas
properties.
We enter into financial swaps, options and collars to reduce the risk of commodity price
fluctuations. We do not designate such instruments as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, we record
open commodity derivative positions on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value and recognize
changes in such fair values as other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations
as they occur.

$100.00 - $127.00 |
At June 30, 2011, the fair value of our open derivative contracts was a net asset of
approximately $1 million. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of our open derivative contracts
was a net liability of approximately $1.1 million.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (JPMorgan) and KeyBank National Association
(KeyBank) are currently the only counterparties to our commodity derivatives positions. We are
exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties on our commodity
derivatives positions. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties over the
term of the commodity derivatives positions. JPMorgan is the administrative agent and a
participant, and KeyBank is a participant, in our revolving credit facility and the collateral for
the outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility is used as collateral for our
commodity derivatives.
Unrealized gains and losses, at fair value, are included on our consolidated balance sheets as
current or noncurrent assets or liabilities based on the anticipated timing of cash settlements
under the related contracts. Changes in the fair value of our commodity derivative contracts are
recorded in net income as they occur and included in other income (expense) on our consolidated
statements of operations. We estimate the fair values of contracts based on the present value of
the difference in exchange-quoted forward price curves and contractual settlement prices multiplied
by notional quantities. We use our internal valuations to determine the fair values of the
contracts that are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets. Realized gains and losses are
also included in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded an unrealized gain on commodity
derivatives of $2.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, from the change in fair value of our
commodity derivatives positions. A hypothetical 10% increase in commodity prices would have
resulted in a $2.2 million decrease in the fair value of our commodity derivative positions
recorded on our balance sheet at June 30, 2011, and a corresponding decrease in the unrealized gain
on commodity derivatives recorded on our consolidated statement of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 2011.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Such
controls include those designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
management, including the President and
28
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange
Act) as of June 30, 2011. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of June
30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SECs rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO
and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes made in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2011,
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
Limitations Inherent in All Controls
Our management, including the CEO and CFO, recognizes that the disclosure controls and procedures
and internal controls (discussed above) cannot prevent all errors or all attempts at fraud. Any
controls system, no matter how well crafted and operated, can only provide reasonable, and not
absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Because of the inherent
limitations in any control system, no evaluation or implementation of a control system can provide
complete assurance that all control issues and all possible instances of fraud have been or will be
detected.
