NEWS RELEASE
California Resources Corporation Announces
Second Quarter 2019 Results
LOS ANGELES, August 1, 2019 - California Resources Corporation (NYSE: CRC), an independent California-based oil and gas exploration and production company, today reported net income attributable to common stock of $12 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2019. Adjusted net loss1 was $14 million, or $0.29 per diluted share. Operational and financial highlights for the second quarter of 2019 were as follows:
Highlights
• | Reported adjusted EBITDAX1 of $255 million; adjusted EBITDAX margin1 of 39%; net cash provided by operating activities of $114 million |
• | Second quarter 2019 average daily production of 129,000 barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) per day, and oil production of 79,000 barrels per day |
• | CRC invested $124 million of internally funded capital and $140 million including JV capital |
• | Drilled 33 wells in the San Joaquin basin and 6 wells in the Los Angeles basin including JV wells |
• | Entered into a joint venture with subsidiaries of Colony Capital, Inc. to invest up to $500 million to further develop our flagship Elk Hills field, with an initial commitment of $320 million |
Todd Stevens, CRC's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our portfolio of quality assets continues to attract outside capital seeking reliable returns. Our three largest development joint ventures potentially provide for over $1 billion from our partners to drill our broad project inventory. We remain disciplined in utilizing our internal VCI metric to dynamically allocate our capital to maximize value in our portfolio. Strengthening our balance sheet remains a top focus and we're continuing to target 10 to 15 percent of our discretionary cash flow towards balance sheet strengthening. We continue to pursue other transactions that will enhance these efforts. Our capital plan calls for CRC's investments to be modestly lower in the second half of the year, while JV capital will increase with our new partner's investment. This will result in a slight increase in production through the end of the year."
Second Quarter 2019 Results
For the second quarter of 2019, CRC reported net income attributable to common stock of $12 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $82 million, or $1.70 per diluted share, for the same period of 2018. Adjusted net loss1 for both the second quarter of 2019 and 2018 was $14 million, or $0.29 per diluted share. Second quarter 2019 adjusted net loss1 excluded a net gain of $20 million on debt repurchases, $4 million of non-cash derivative gains on commodity derivatives and income of $2 million, net, for unusual and infrequent items.
Page 1
Adjusted EBITDAX1 for the second quarter of 2019 was $255 million and cash provided by operating activities was $114 million.
Total daily production volumes decreased 4% year-over-year, from 134,000 BOE per day for the second quarter of 2018 to 129,000 BOE per day for the second quarter of 2019. Total daily production for the second quarter of 2019 was lower partially due to a strategic divestiture which was completed in the second quarter of 2019. The divestiture, together with PSC effects, reduced our second quarter 2019 production by over 2,000 BOE per day. Non-recurring events including power and plant outages lowered quarterly production by 1,000 BOE per day. Oil volumes averaged 79,000 barrels per day, NGL volumes averaged 16,000 barrels per day and gas volumes averaged 203,000 thousand cubic feet (Mcf) per day.
Despite lower Brent index prices, our realized crude oil prices, including the effect of settled hedges, increased by $6.55 per barrel from $64.11 in the second quarter of 2018 to $70.66 per barrel in the second quarter of 2019. In the second quarter of 2019, hedge settlements increased our realized crude oil prices by $1.89 per barrel compared to a reduction of $9.08 per barrel in the prior year period. Realized NGL prices were $27.82 per barrel, down $14.31 over the prior year period as local and national markets experienced excess supply resulting from Canadian imports coupled with weaker demand. Realized natural gas prices were $2.33 per Mcf for the second quarter of 2019, $0.08 higher than the same prior year period due to stronger California demand.
Production costs for the second quarter of 2019 were $230 million compared to $231 million for the second quarter of 2018.
General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $79 million for the second quarter of 2019 compared to $90 million for the same prior-year period. CRC's obligation for cash-settled stock-based compensation awards is adjusted for changes in our stock price at the end of each quarter and the related expense decreased approximately $16 million due to a lower stock price in the second quarter of 2019. This decrease was partially offset by higher overhead expenses in 2019.
CRC reported taxes other than on income of $36 million for the second quarter of 2019 compared to $37 million for the same prior-year period. Exploration expense was $10 million for the second quarter of 2019, $4 million higher than the same prior-year period.
CRC's internally funded capital investment for the second quarter of 2019 totaled $124 million, of which $89 million was directed to drilling and capital workovers. CRC's JV partner Benefit Street Partners (BSP) also invested $16 million, which is included in CRC's consolidated results.
Six-Month Results
For the first six months of 2019, CRC net loss attributable to common stock was $55 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $84 million, or $1.81 per diluted share, for the same period of 2018. Including hedge settlements, the 2019 results reflected higher year-over-year revenue despite a lower oil price environment. Adjusted net income1 for the first six months of 2019 was $17 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared with an adjusted net loss1 of $6 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the same period of 2018. The 2019 adjusted net income1 excluded $93 million of non-cash derivative losses, a net gain of $26 million from debt repurchases and a net $5 million charge related to other unusual and infrequent items.
Total daily production volumes averaged 131,000 BOE per day for the first six months of 2019, compared with 129,000 BOE per day for the same period in 2018, an increase of 2 percent. The 2018 volumes reflected only one quarter of production from the Elk Hills acquisition. The 2019 volumes reflected the effect of a strategic divestiture and non-recurring events in the second quarter.
In the first six months of 2019, realized crude oil prices, including the effect of settled hedges, increased $4.43 per barrel to $67.90 per barrel from $63.47 per barrel for the same period in 2018. Settled hedges increased 2019 realized crude oil prices by $1.93 per barrel, compared with a
Page 2
reduction of $6.88 per barrel for the same period in 2018. Realized NGL prices decreased 18 percent, or $7.66 per barrel to $34.97 per barrel in the first six months of 2019 from $42.63 per barrel for the same period of 2018. Realized natural gas prices increased to $2.87 per Mcf, compared with $2.51 per Mcf for the same period in 2018.
Production costs for the first six months of 2019 were $463 million, or $19.54 per BOE, compared to $443 million, or $19.01 per BOE, for the same period in 2018. The increase is primarily attributable to the Elk Hills transaction, higher surface operations and maintenance costs and other items, partially offset by lower downhole maintenance activity and lower costs resulting from the Lost Hills divestiture. Per unit production costs, excluding the effect of PSCs, were $17.99 and $17.44 per BOE for the first six months of 2019 and 2018, respectively.
G&A expenses for the first six months of 2019 were $162 million and for the first six months of 2018 were $153 million, with the increase largely due to higher expenses across a number of functions, partially offset by lower equity compensation expense in the first half of 2019.
Taxes other than on income of $77 million for the first six months of 2019 were comparable to the same period of 2018, when taxes were $75 million. Exploration expense of $20 million for the first six months of 2019 was $6 million higher than the same period of 2018.
Capital investment in the first six months of 2019 totaled $228 million excluding JV capital, of which $158 million was directed to drilling and capital workovers. BSP also invested $43 million, which is included in CRC's consolidated results.
Cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2019 was $272 million and free cash flow was $44 million after taking into account capital investment that was funded by BSP.
Operational Update
In the second quarter of 2019, CRC operated an average of seven drilling rigs, with two rigs focused on conventional primary production, two on waterfloods, one on steamfloods and two on unconventional production. With total invested capital, we drilled 39 development wells and no exploration wells (5 steamflood, 20 waterflood, 4 primary and 10 unconventional). Steamfloods and waterfloods have different production profiles and longer response times than typical conventional wells and, as a result, the full production contribution may not be experienced in the same period that the well is drilled. The San Joaquin basin produced 94,000 BOE per day and operated six rigs. The Los Angeles basin contributed 24,000 BOE per day of production and operated one rig directed toward waterflood projects. The Ventura and Sacramento basins, where we had no active drilling program, produced 6,000 BOE per day and 5,000 BOE per day, respectively.
2019 Capital Budget
CRC’s internally funded investments will be largely directed to short payout projects, such as primary drilling of both vertical and lateral wells and capital workovers, and low-risk projects including waterflood and steamflood investments that maintain base production. CRC estimates its 2019 internally funded capital program will range from $350 million to $385 million. CRC entered into a JV with subsidiaries of Colony Capital, Inc. (collectively, "Colony") in July 2019. As a result, CRC will increase its JV investment contributions to a range of $175 to $225 million for 2019. CRC anticipates a total capital program of approximately $525 to $610 million for the year.

Strategic Asset Divestiture
As previously disclosed, CRC sold 50% of its working interest and transferred operatorship in certain zones in our Lost Hills field in the San Joaquin Basin on May 1, 2019. The total consideration was in excess of $200 million, including approximately $168 million in cash before transaction costs and a carried 200-well development program to be drilled through 2023 with an estimated value of $35 million. The cash proceeds of $165 million, net of transaction costs and purchase price adjustments, were used to pay down the revolver. CRC also benefits from accelerated development from the drilling carry.
Recent Joint Venture
In July 2019, CRC entered into a JV with Colony, under which Colony has committed to invest $320 million for the development of portions of our flagship Elk Hills field, located in the San Joaquin basin. Colony's total investment may be increased to $500 million, subject to the mutual agreement of the parties. The initial commitment will cover multiple development opportunities in portions of the Elk Hills field and is intended to be invested over approximately three years in accordance with a development plan that has been agreed to by the parties consisting of 275 wells. Colony will fund 100% of the development wells and will earn a 90% working interest in those wells. If Colony receives an agreed upon return, CRC's working interest will increase from 10% to 82.5%.
Colony also received a warrant to purchase up to 1.25 million shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $40 per share.
Repurchases and Balance Sheet Update
During the second quarter of 2019, CRC repurchased $58 million in face value of CRC's Second Lien Notes for $45 million, bringing the aggregate face value of Second Lien Notes repurchased since issuance to approximately $260 million. Total net debt outstanding at the end of the second quarter was $5.1 billion.
Hedging Update
CRC continues to execute an opportunistic hedging program to protect its cash flow, operating margins and capital program, while maintaining adequate liquidity. For the third and fourth quarters of 2019, CRC has protected the downside price risk on 40,000 and 35,000 barrels per day at approximately $73 Brent and $76 Brent, respectively. These put spreads provide full upside to oil price movements and downside protection until Brent prices drop below approximately $58 and $60 per barrel in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, at which point we receive Brent plus approximately $15 per barrel. For the first and second quarters of 2020, CRC has protected the downside risk of 25,000 and 10,000 barrels per day at approximately $72 Brent and $70 Brent, respectively. These put spreads provide downside price protection until Brent prices drop below $57 and $55 per barrel in the first and second quarters, respectively, at which point we receive Brent plus $15 per barrel. CRC also entered into a swap for 5,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2020 at approximately $70 Brent, which is subject to another 5,000 barrel per day at the same price at the option of the counterparties. See Attachment 8 for more details.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | |||||||||||||||||
Our consolidated results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 include the effects of long-term stock-based compensation plans under which awards are granted annually to executives, non-executive employees and non-employee directors that are either settled with shares of our common stock or cash. Our equity-settled awards granted to executives include stock options, restricted stock units and performance stock units that either cliff vest at the end of a three-year period or vest ratably over a three-year period, some of which are partially settled in cash. Our equity-settled awards granted to non-employee directors are restricted stock units that either vest at the grant date or cliff vest after one year. Our cash-settled awards granted to non-executive employees vest ratably over a three-year period. Changes in our stock price introduce volatility in our results of operations because we pay cash-settled awards based on our stock price on the vesting date and accounting rules require that we adjust our obligation for unvested awards to the amount that would be paid using our stock price at the end of each reporting period. Cash-settled awards, including executive awards partially settled in cash, account for approximately 50% of our total outstanding awards. Equity-settled awards are not similarly adjusted for changes in our stock price. Stock-based compensation is included in both general and administrative expenses and production costs as shown in the table below: | |||||||||||||||||

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS | |||||||||
Our results of operations, which are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), can include the effects of unusual, out-of-period and infrequent transactions and events affecting earnings that vary widely and unpredictably (in particular certain non-cash items such as derivative gains and losses) in nature, timing, amount and frequency. Therefore, management uses certain non-GAAP measures to assess our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. These measures are widely used by the industry, the investment community and our lenders. Although these are non-GAAP measures, the amounts included in the calculations were computed in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from these non-GAAP measures are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance, such as our cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic cost of depreciable and depletable assets. These measures should be read in conjunction with the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Below are additional disclosures regarding each of the non-GAAP measures reported in this press release, including reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure where applicable. | |||||||||
ADJUSTED NET INCOME (LOSS) | |||||||||||||||||
Management uses a measure called adjusted net income (loss) to provide useful information to investors interested in comparing our core operations between periods and our performance to our peers. This measure is not meant to disassociate the effects of unusual, out-of-period and infrequent items affecting earnings from management's performance but rather is meant to provide useful information to investors interested in comparing our financial performance between periods. Reported earnings are considered representative of management's performance over the long term. Adjusted net income (loss) is not considered to be an alternative to net income (loss) reported in accordance with GAAP. The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) attributable to common stock to the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted net income (loss) and presents the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) attributable to common stock per diluted share and the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share. | |||||||||||||||||

ADJUSTED EBITDAX | |||||||||||||||||
We define adjusted EBITDAX as earnings before interest expense; income taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; exploration expense; other unusual, out-of-period and infrequent items; and other non-cash items. Management uses adjusted EBITDAX as a measure of operating cash flow without working capital adjustments. A version of adjusted EBITDAX is a material component of certain of our financial covenants under our 2014 Revolving Credit Facility and is provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, performance and liquidity measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The BSP JV entered into crude oil derivatives for insignificant volumes through 2021 that are included in our consolidated results but not in the above table. The BSP JV also entered into natural gas swaps for insignificant volumes for periods through May 2021. The hedges entered into by the BSP JV could affect the timing of the redemption of BSP's noncontrolling interest. | ||||||||
In May 2018 we entered into derivative contracts that limit our interest rate exposure with respect to $1.3 billion of our variable-rate indebtedness. The interest rate contracts reset monthly and require the counterparties to pay any excess interest owed on such amount in the event the one-month LIBOR exceeds 2.75% for any monthly period prior to May 2021. | ||||||||
(a) Counterparties have the option to increase swap volumes by up to 5,000 barrels per day at a weighted-average Brent price of $70.05 for the second quarter of 2020. | ||||||||

2019 Third Quarter Production, Capital and Income Statement Guidance | |||
Production (assumed Q3 average Brent price of $65/Bbl) | 127 to 132 MBOE per day | ||
Production (assumed Q3 average Brent price of $70/Bbl) | 126 to 131 MBOE per day | ||

Adjusted general and administrative expenses (c) & (d) | $6.30 to $6.70 per BOE | ||
Depreciation, depletion and amortization (c) | $9.85 to $10.15 per BOE | ||
Taxes other than on income | $41 million to $45 million | ||

$1 change in Brent index - Oil (g) | $6.6 million | ||
$1 change in Brent index - NGLs | $0.5 million | ||
$0.50 change in NYMEX - Gas | $7.0 million | ||
(a) Realizations exclude hedge effects. | |||
(b) Capital guidance includes CRC, BSP, MIRA and Colony capital. | |||
(c) Production based on assumed Q3 average Brent price of $65/Bbl. This reflects the additional reduction of close to 1,000 barrels of oil per day compared to the second quarter of 2019 due to the divestiture of 50% interest in our Lost Hills operation that closed on May 1, 2019. | |||
(d) A portion of our long-term incentive compensation programs are stock based but payable in cash. Accounting rules require that we adjust our obligation for all vested but unpaid cash-settled awards under these programs to the amount that would be paid using our stock price as of the end of each reporting period. Therefore, in addition to the normal pro-rata vesting expense associated with these programs, our quarterly expense could include a cumulative adjustment depending on movement in our stock price. Our stock price used to set Q3 2019 guidance was $19.68 per share. | |||
(e) Interest expense includes cash interest, original issue discount and amortization of deferred financing costs as well as the deferred gain that resulted from the December 2015 debt exchange. Cash interest for the quarter is lower than interest expense due to the timing of interest payments. | |||
(f) Due to our tax position there is no difference between the impact on our income and cash flows. | |||
(g) Amount reflects the sensitivity with respect to unhedged barrels which have no limitation to upside price movements. We have downside price protection on approximately 49% of our Q3 2019 oil production, at a weighted average Brent floor price of approximately $73 per barrel below which we receive Brent plus $15 per barrel. | |||
