SECOND QUARTER 2014 RESULTS
SM Energy reported net income for the second quarter of 2014 of $59.8
million, or $0.88 per diluted share. This compares to net income of
$76.5 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, for the same period of 2013.
Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2014 was $106.5 million,
or $1.56 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $51.8
million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for the same period of 2013.
Adjusted net income excludes certain items that the Company believes
affect the comparability of operating results and are generally items
whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization,
accretion, and exploration expense ("adjusted EBITDAX") set a new
quarterly record of $423.4 million in the second quarter of 2014, an
increase of 24% from $342.5 million for the same period of 2013.
Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDAX are non-GAAP financial
measures. Please refer to the respective reconciliations in the
Financial Highlights section at the end of this release for additional
information about these measures.
Total operating revenues for the second quarter of 2014 were $675.0
million compared to $559.4 million for the same period of 2013, a 21%
increase from period to period. The table below provides the average
realized prices received by product, as well as the adjusted prices

Reported average daily production increased by 6% from production of
138.6 MBOE per day in the first quarter of 2014. In the second quarter
of 2014, SM Energy's reported production mix was 29% oil/condensate, 24%
NGLs, and 47% natural gas.
In the second quarter, the Company reported per unit costs in-line or
slightly below its previously announced guidance range.
OPERATIONS UPDATE
Eagle Ford Shale
The Company's operated net production in the Eagle Ford shale averaged
83.2 MBOE per day in the second quarter of 2014, a 9% sequential
increase from the prior quarter and a 26% increase over the second
quarter of 2013. During the second quarter, SM Energy made 23 flowing
completions in its operated Eagle Ford Shale program.
The Company has been shifting its Eagle Ford drilling and completion
program toward longer lateral wells and completions with higher sand
loading. Although the Company's longer lateral testing is ongoing,
sufficient data on the Company's increased sand loading tests is now
available from wells in Area 2 of its operated Eagle Ford shale position
to conclude that wells completed with higher sand loadings are more
productive, have improved initial condensate yields, and have
significantly improved economics. Additional details regarding this
testing program are included in the Company's presentation and will be
discussed on the Company’s earnings call.
In the non-operated portion of the Company's Eagle Ford shale program,
net production for the second quarter of 2014 averaged 23.8 MBOE per
day, a 2% sequential increase over the first quarter of 2014 production
of 23.4 MBOE per day and a 37% increase over the second quarter of 2013.
The operator made approximately 95 flowing completions during the second
quarter. Consistent with previous expectations, the drilling and
completion carry provided under the Company's Acquisition and
Development Agreement with Mitsui was completed in the second quarter of
2014. With the completion of the carry, the Company is now responsible
for funding its proportionate share of drilling and completion costs.
Bakken / Three Forks
In the second quarter of 2014, SM Energy's average daily production for
its Bakken/Three Forks program was 16.5 MBOE per day. Average daily
production for the quarter increased by 3% over the prior quarter and
increased 21% from the second quarter of 2013. During the second
quarter, the Company made 12 gross flowing completions in its operated
Bakken/Three Forks program.
Earlier today, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire
approximately 61,000 net acres in Divide and Williams Counties, North
Dakota directly adjacent to its Gooseneck area for $330 million.
Highlights of the transaction, which is expected to add significant
drilling inventory, include:
-
Associated net production of approximately 3,200 BOE/d (91% oil, 1,500
BTU rich gas)
-
Properties are 90% operated and approximately 70% held by production
-
Interests in 126 drilling spacing units, 81 of which will be operated
by SM Energy
-
Working interest for operated spacing units is expected to range
between 37.5% – 50.0%
The transaction has an effective date of July 1, 2014, is expected to
close by the end of the third quarter of 2014, and is subject to
customary closing conditions and adjustments. The Company expects to
fund the acquisition with cash on hand and borrowings under its existing
credit facility.
Directly adjacent to the acquisition area, SM Energy has seen
improvements in its Three Forks program recently due to faster drilling
times and improved completions, where results to date indicate that
recent wells have higher sustained production rates than older wells.
Additional details regarding Gooseneck Three Forks well optimization are
included in the Company's presentation and will be discussed on the
Company's earnings call.
Powder River Basin
SM Energy completed one well in its Powder River Basin acreage in the
second quarter of 2014. The Rush State 4277-36-1FH (SM 100% WI) with a
3,788 foot effective lateral length had a peak 30-day initial production
rate of 737 BOE per day (2-stream, 85% oil). During 2014, the Company
has acquired or entered into transactions to acquire approximately
33,000 net acres, resulting in a total of approximately 166,000 net
acres in the basin. SM Energy added a third rig to its program during
the second quarter and has contracted a fourth rig for delivery in the
third quarter of 2014.
Permian Basin
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company made 4 flowing
completions in its Sweetie Peck property. During the quarter, the
Company completed two of its most productive wells to date in this
program on a peak initial production per lateral foot basis. The Dorcus
4236H (SM 100% WI) had a peak 30-day initial production rate of 1,093
BOE per day on a two-stream basis and the Dorcus 3036H (SM 100% WI), the
Company's first long lateral well in Sweetie Peck with an approximately
7,650 foot effective lateral, had a peak 30-day initial production rate
of 1,559 BOE per day on a two-stream basis. In its Buffalo prospect in
the northern Midland Basin, the Company spud its first Wolfcamp D test
at the end of the second quarter.
FINANCIAL POSITION AND LIQUIDITY
As of the end of the second quarter, the Company had $163.8 million of
cash on hand and outstanding borrowings of $1.6 billion, which were
comprised entirely of long term notes. As of the end of the second
quarter, SM Energy had an undrawn credit facility with $1.3 billion in
lender commitments. As of June 30, 2014, the Company's debt to twelve
month trailing adjusted EBITDAX remained at 1.0 times and its
debt-to-book capitalization ratio was 48%.
CAPITAL, PRODUCTION, AND PERFORMANCE GUIDANCE
SM Energy is reviewing its capital budget for 2014 in light of its
recent Bakken/Three Forks acquisition and expects to provide updated
capital, production, and performance guidance in mid-August 2014.

(1) For the three and six-month period ended June 30,
2014, adjustments are shown net of tax and are calculated using a
tax rate of 37.2%, which approximates the Company's statutory tax
rate for that period, as adjusted for ordinary permanent
differences. For the three and six-month period ended June 30,
2013, adjustments are shown net of tax using the Company's
effective rate as calculated by dividing income tax expense by
income before income taxes on the condensed consolidated statement
of operations.
|
|
(2) For the three and six-month period ended June 30,
2014, adjustments include items related to settlements from the
previously disclosed litigation against Endeavour Operating
Corporation. These items are included as a portion of other
operating revenues and non-operating expense, other, net, on the
Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations. For the
three and six-month period ended June 30, 2013, adjustments
include items related to an agreed clarification concerning
royalty payment provisions of various leases on certain South
Texas & Gulf Coast acreage. These items are included as a portion
of other operating expense on the Company's condensed consolidated
statement of operations.
|
|
(3) Adjusted net income excludes certain items that the
Company believes affect the comparability of operating results and
generally are items whose timing and/or amount cannot be
reasonably estimated. These items include non-cash adjustments and
impairments such as the change in the Net Profits Plan liability,
derivative loss, derivative cash settlement (loss) gain,
impairment of properties, and (gain) loss on divestiture activity.
The non-GAAP measure of adjusted net income is presented because
management believes it provides useful additional information to
investors for analysis of SM Energy's fundamental business on a
recurring basis. In addition, management believes that adjusted
net income is widely used by professional research analysts and
others in the valuation, comparison, and investment
recommendations of companies in the oil and gas exploration and
production industry, and many investors use the published research
of industry research analysts in making investment decisions.
Adjusted net income should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for net income, income from operations, cash provided
by operating activities or other income, profitability, cash flow,
or liquidity measures prepared under GAAP. Since adjusted net
income excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income
and may vary among companies, the adjusted net income amounts
presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of
other companies.

(1) Stock-based compensation expense is a component of
exploration expense and general and administrative expense on the
accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Therefore, the exploration line items shown in the reconciliation
above will vary from the amount shown on the accompanying
condensed consolidated statements of operations because of the
component of stock-based compensation expense recorded to
exploration.
|
|
(2) Gain on divestiture activity is included within the
other operating revenues line item of the accompanying condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
|
|
(3) Adjusted EBITDAX represents income before interest
expense, other non-operating (income) expense, income taxes,
depreciation, depletion, amortization, and accretion, exploration
expense, property impairments, non-cash stock compensation
expense, derivative gains and losses net of cash settlements,
change in the Net Profits Plan liability, and gains and losses on
divestitures. Adjusted EBITDAX excludes certain items that the
Company believes affect the comparability of operating results and
can exclude items that are generally one-time in nature or whose
timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Adjusted
EBITDAX is a non-GAAP measure that is presented because the
Company believes that it provides useful additional information to
investors and analysts, as a performance measure, for analysis of
the Company's ability to internally generate funds for
exploration, development, acquisitions, and to service debt. The
Company is also subject to a financial covenant under its credit
facility based on its debt to adjusted EBITDAX ratio. In addition,
adjusted EBITDAX is widely used by professional research analysts
and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment
recommendations of companies in the oil and gas exploration and
production industry, and many investors use the published research
of industry research analysts in making investment decisions.
Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for net income, income from operations, net cash
provided by operating activities, or profitability or liquidity
measures prepared under GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDAX excludes
some, but not all items that affect net income and may vary among
companies, the adjusted EBITDAX amounts presented may not be
comparable to similar metrics of other companies.
