These translations are done via Google Translate

DENVERFeb. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Jagged Peak Energy Inc. (NYSE: JAG) (“Jagged Peak” or the “Company”) today announced financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018.

Jim Kleckner, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “2018 marked another successful year for Jagged Peak, as we firmly delivered on our objective of operational execution. We ended the year with top-tier operating margins, improved average well performance year-over-year, and reduced proved developed finding and development costs, which have resulted in peer-leading return on capital employed. The entire Jagged Peak team was instrumental in achieving each of our 2018 strategic goals, setting the stage for a strong 2019. As we begin the year, the team remains focused on driving additional efficiencies by executing on a 2019 program that contemplates an activity level similar to 2018 with approximately $75 million less in capital expenditures. As we continue to grow our early stage Company, we will strive to consistently provide capital efficient growth, while keeping the balance sheet strong at under two times leverage in a $50/Bbl commodity price environment. By executing on these goals, we believe that we can efficiently get to the size and scale where we can provide organic, sustainable free cash flow to our investors. By continually pressing on capital efficiency, we remain confident in our ability to create shareholder value on our contiguous acreage blocks in the core oil window of the southern Delaware Basin.”

Fourth Quarter Results

During the fourth quarter, the Company turned online 9 gross operated wells and reported average daily production of 38.4 MBoe per day, above the high-end of the Company’s previously announced guidance range of 36.0 – 38.0 MBoe per day. Oil production for the quarter averaged 29.1 MBbls per day, above the midpoint of the Company’s previously announced guidance range of 28.0 – 30.0 MBbls per day. Average daily production in the fourth quarter of 2018, grew sequentially by 6% from the third quarter of 2018, and by 60% from the fourth quarter of 2017. Fourth quarter production mix was comprised of 76% oil, 15% NGLs, and 9% natural gas. Similar to the third quarter of 2018, the Company had increased ethane recovery, which resulted in increased NGL and oil equivalent volumes for the fourth quarter of 2018.

Reported revenue for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $138.5 million, compared to $104.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 was a result of the 60% increase in production volumes, as fourth quarter 2018 average realized prices, before the effects of derivative settlements, were 17% below the fourth quarter of 2017 on a per Boe basis. Average realized prices for the fourth quarter of 2018 are included in the table below.

(1) Guidance as provided in the Company’s third quarter earnings and operational update press release on November 8, 2018.

For the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company reported net income of $186.3 million, or $0.87 per diluted common share. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2017 was $12.8 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share. Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) for the fourth quarter of 2018, was $28.2 million, or $0.13per diluted common share, compared to $20.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted common share for the same period in 2017. Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) eliminates certain non-cash and non-recurring items such as certain equity-based compensation, non-cash mark-to-market gains or losses on derivatives and impairment expense, further adjusted for any associated changes in estimated income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDAX (a non-GAAP measure) for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $108.6 million, an increase of $30.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2017.

Please reference the reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures at the end of this release.

During the fourth quarter, the Company identified a portion of its Big Tex acreage that it does not currently intend to develop before the expiration of its leases. As a result, a non-cash impairment expense of unproved properties was recorded in the amount of $28.1 million.

Capital expenditures for drilling and completion activities were $155.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018. Activity during the quarter included drilling and completing 10 gross (9.4 net) wells, of which, 9 gross (8.9 net) wells were operated by Jagged Peak. Additionally, a portion of the capital spent during the fourth quarter relates to 19 gross (18.4 net) operated wells that were in various stages of being drilled or completed at December 31, 2018. Including capital expenditures for infrastructure of $5.7 million and leasehold acquisition costs of $12.1 million, total capital expenditures for the quarter were $173.1 million. The Company’s leasehold acquisition costs for the quarter represent additions or extensions of approximately 1,500 net acres, primarily in Whiskey River.  During 2018, the Company added approximately 4,100 net acres to its position.  As of December 31, 2018, the Company had approximately 79,500 net acres, including Big Tex acres that were impaired, but are still leased by the Company, and approximately 5,100 net surface acres.

The table below provides a comparative breakout of the Company’s capital expenditures for the periods indicated:

Proved Reserves

Proved oil and gas reserves at December 31, 2018 were estimated at 118.9 MMBoe, an increase of 44% from 82.4 MMBoe at December 31, 2017. The composition of the reserves at the end of 2018 were 77% oil, 12% NGL, and 11% natural gas. Proved developed reserves at year-end 2018 increased 89% from year-end 2017 to 71.4 MMBoe, and represent 60% of total proved reserves compared to 40% at year-end 2017. The Company expects its 2019 exit-to-exit aggregate decline for these PDP wells to be approximately 45%, compared to a 49% aggregate decline rate in 2018. All-in proved reserve replacement for 2018 was 393%. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s PV-10 value for proved reserves (a non-GAAP measure) was $1.8 billion, an increase of 100% from the prior year. For 2018, the Company’s organic proved developed finding and development (“F&D”) costs were $15.55 per Boe, a decrease of 23% from 2017. Organic proved developed F&D costs are defined as the sum of drilling and completion, infrastructure, and exploration costs included in the above table, divided by the sum of proved developed reserves added through extensions, discoveries and other, including infill reserves in an existing proved field, converted to proved developed, and revisions of previous estimates, included in the proved reserve roll-forward table below.

Please reference the reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure, PV-10 to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows, at the end of this release.

Jagged Peak’s proved reserve estimates as of December 31, 2018, and 2017 were prepared by Ryder Scott Company, L.P. in accordance with the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The reference prices used to determine the reserve quantities and future cash flows were $65.56 per barrel of oil and $3.10 per MMBtu of natural gas. After considering applicable differentials and pricing adjustments, the realized prices were $58.35 per barrel of oil, $34.21 per barrel of NGLs, and $2.23 per Mcf of natural gas.

2019 Capital, Production, and Operating Guidance

The Company’s 2019 capital expenditure program is primarily focused on the continued development of the Wolfcamp A formation in Whiskey River and Cochise to further improve F&D cost efficiency and cash flow, resulting in enhanced full-cycle returns on its capital investments. The program contemplates approximately 54 gross (51 net) operated wells and 2 net non-operated wells turned online at a drilling, completion, and equipment (“DC&E”) capital cost of approximately $605 million, a significant improvement when compared to the Company’s 2018 program, which included 48.0 net wells turned online at a DC&E capital cost of $690.8 million. When planning for 2019, the Company is focusing its efforts on delivering increased capital efficiency to minimize capital outspend and keeping its balance sheet strong. The 2019 program is expected to keep balance sheet leverage under 2.0x debt to EBITDAX in a $50 per barrel WTI environment, while providing ample growth on a year-over-year basis and exit-to-exit basis.

Of the allocated capital for 2019, most of the activity will occur in the Company’s Whiskey River and Cochise areas, where it expects to bring online 42 and 7 wells, respectively. In its Big Tex acreage, the Company plans to bring online 5 wells during 2019. Apart from one follow-up Woodford test in Big Tex during the year, the remaining Big Tex program will target the Wolfcamp A formation, and is primarily concentrated in a high-graded fairway of acreage that was identified through recently acquired 3D seismic data. Based on results from these 5 Big Tex wells, the Company will remain flexible in reallocating capital for up to an additional 7 Big Tex wells during the year. The Company is still pursuing various commercial options to assist with Big Tex development, and has recently entered into an agreement to farm-out a portion of its Big Tex area covering 3,200 gross/net acres. The farm-out allows the Company to receive a 25% carried working interest in up to 7 wells, 2 or more of which will be drilled in 2019, in exchange for approximately 2,200 net acres of the Company’s western Big Tex acreage.

Like 2018, the Company’s 2019 program in Whiskey River will consist of mostly 2-well pads, which provide significant cost efficiencies over single well development. In the second half of the year, the Company plans to begin transitioning to larger scale development of multiple horizons by executing on a 9-well pilot from three adjacent pads in its Cochise area, which are expected to come online in 2020. By moving to these larger development pads, the Company expects to provide optimal development of its acreage from both a capital efficiency and reservoir productivity standpoint.

During 2018, the Company successfully reduced its well costs and improved its average well performance to increase its capital efficiency. The Company expects its 2019 drilling, completion, and equipment costs will show a further increase to capital efficiency by reducing average cost per lateral foot by approximately 15% year over year, to approximately $1,250 per lateral foot. This decrease is driven by a combination of increased operational efficiencies, decreased service costs, and optimized well design.

Due to the timing of pad completions in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the development schedule in 2019, the Company expects its first quarter 2019 production to decline slightly from its fourth quarter levels, pushing most of the Company’s expected 2019 production growth into the second and fourth quarters. The Company expects to exit 2019 with fourth quarter production averaging 32.5 – 36.5 Bbls per day per day of oil (43 – 47 MBoe per day), providing oil production growth of approximately 19% from fourth quarter 2018 to fourth quarter 2019.

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, gains or losses on sales of assets, 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.

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAX

Net debt to adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP measure, which is defined as the face value of the Company’s long-term debt, including its senior unsecured notes and amounts drawn on its credit facility, less cash and cash equivalents at quarter end, divided by the Company’s quarterly annualized adjusted EBITDAX, as defined above.

PV-10

PV-10 is a non-GAAP metric, which is derived from the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. PV-10 is a computation of the Standardized Measure on a pre-tax basis. PV-10 is equal to the Standardized Measure at the applicable date, before deducting future income taxes, discounted at 10%. Management believes that the presentation of PV-10 is relevant and useful to investors because it presents the discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s estimated net proved reserves prior to taking into account future corporate income taxes, and it is a useful measure for evaluating the relative monetary significance of oil and natural gas properties. Further, investors may utilize the measure as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of Jagged Peak’s reserves to other companies. Management uses this measure along with other measures when assessing the potential return on investment related to oil and natural gas properties. PV-10, however, is not a substitute for the Standardized Measure. PV-10 and the Standardized Measure of oil and gas do not purport to present the fair value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves.

Organic Proved Developed Finding and Development Costs

Organic proved developed finding and development (“F&D”) costs is a financial measure that is used by management to assess the relative amount of development capital needed to develop one barrel of oil equivalent reserves. This measure is defined as the sum of drilling and completion, infrastructure, and exploration costs included in the Company’s “Capital Expenditures for Oil and Gas Activities” table contained in this release, divided by the sum of proved developed reserves added through extensions, discoveries and other, including infill reserves in an existing proved field, converted to proved developed, and revisions of previous estimates, included in the “Proved Reserve Roll-Forward” table contained in this release. The method the Company uses to calculate its organic proved developed F&D costs may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, the Company’s organic proved developed F&D costs may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

This measure is provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP in the Company’s 2018 10-K. Due to various factors, including timing differences in the addition of proved reserves and the related costs to develop those reserves, organic proved developed F&D costs does not precisely reflect the costs associated with particular proved reserves. As a result of various factors that could materially affect the timing and amounts of future increases in proved developed reserves and the timing and amounts of future costs, we cannot assure you that our future organic proved developed F&D costs will not differ materially from those presented.

(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 was primarily recognized ratably as they 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 twelve months ended December 31, 2018 includes $74.5 million related to management incentive units that converted to common stock in connection with the IPO and $8.9 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.
