Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results
Production for the second quarter of 2014 totaled 9.8 million barrels of oil equivalent (“MMBoe”) (6.2 million barrels of oil (“MMBbls”) and 21.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas (“Bcf”)), an increase of 18% as compared to 8.3 MMBoe (5.2 MMBbls of crude oil and 18.6 Bcf of natural gas) produced in the second quarter of 2013. Sequentially, Concho's average daily production in the second quarter of 2014 increased 6% as compared to the previous quarter of 101.6 MBoepd.
“The second quarter was another exceptional quarter, demonstrating the strength of our team as we continue to execute on our Two-by-Three Growth Plan, which calls for doubling our production in three years,” commented Tim Leach, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. “The advantage of running one of the Permian Basin's largest horizontal operations is translating into operational efficiencies and improved returns. We are focusing on optimizing our well design and stimulation techniques. Efficiencies of scale and drilling and completion optimization are driving greater capital productivity as well as industry-leading well performance across the Permian Basin.”
For the second quarter of 2014, the Company reported net income of $11.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $84.7 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2013. The Company's second quarter 2014 results were impacted by several non-cash and unusual items including: (1) a $164.7 million loss on derivatives not designated as hedges, (2) $26.1 million in cash payments on commodity derivatives, (3) $11.2 million of leasehold abandonments, (4) a $4.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt and (5) a $9.6 million loss on disposition of assets. Excluding these items and their tax effects, second quarter 2014 adjusted net income (non-GAAP) was $113.8 million, or $1.04 per diluted share. Excluding similar non-cash and unusual items and their tax effects, adjusted net income (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2013 was $102.5 million, or $0.98 per diluted share. For a description and a reconciliation of net income (GAAP) to adjusted net income (non-GAAP), please see “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
EBITDAX (non-GAAP) was $504.0 million in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 19% from $424.8 million in the second quarter of 2013. For a description and a reconciliation of net income (GAAP) to EBITDAX (non-GAAP), please see “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Oil and natural gas sales for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $704.7 million and increased 25% compared to oil and natural gas sales of $562.8 million for the second quarter of 2013. The increase was attributable to an 18% increase in production in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013, and a 4% and 12% increase in the Company's unhedged realized oil and gas price, respectively, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013.
Oil and natural gas production expense for the second quarter of 2014, including oil and natural gas taxes, totaled $134.9 million, or $13.76 per barrel of oil equivalent (“Boe”), a 6% increase per Boe from the second quarter of 2013. This increase was due primarily to higher lease operating expenses (“LOE”) and workover costs, which averaged $8.15 per Boe in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $7.25 per Boe in the second quarter of 2013.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense (“DD&A”) for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $237.4 million, or $24.20 per Boe, a 6% increase per Boe from the second quarter of 2013.
General and administrative expense (“G&A”) for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $49.5 million, or $5.05 per Boe, as compared to $41.0 million, or $4.94 per Boe, in the second quarter of 2013. Cash G&A expenses for the second quarter of 2014 totaled $39.8 million. The increase in per Boe expense for the second quarter of 2014 over the second quarter of 2013 was primarily due to an increase in staffing across the company, and was partially offset by an 18% increase in production.
The Company's cash flow from operating activities (GAAP) was $854.7 million for the first six months of 2014, as compared to $487.1 million for the first six months of 2013, an increase of 75%. Adjusted cash flows (non-GAAP), which are cash flows from operating activities (GAAP) adjusted for settlements on derivatives not designated as hedges, were $813.8 million for the first six months of 2014, as compared to $494.7 million for the first six months of 2013, an increase of 65%. For a description of the use of adjusted cash flows (non-GAAP) and for a reconciliation of cash flows from operating activities (GAAP) to adjusted cash flows (non-GAAP), please see “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Operations
For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company started drilling or participated in a total of 134 gross wells (107 operated) and completed 107 wells as producers. The table below summarizes the Company's gross drilling activities by core area for the second quarter of 2014:

The Company currently is operating 34 drilling rigs; 17 of these rigs are drilling in the northern Delaware Basin, 6 are drilling in the southern Delaware Basin, 2 are drilling in the New Mexico Shelf and 9 are drilling in the Texas Permian. Of the Company's 34 operated rigs, 30 are drilling horizontally, including 17 in the northern Delaware Basin, 6 in the southern Delaware Basin, 2 in the New Mexico Shelf and 5 in the Texas Permian.
Delaware Basin
Of the 75 wells drilled in the Delaware Basin during the second quarter of 2014, 53 were Bone Spring sands wells, 14 were Wolfcamp shale wells, 5 were Brushy Canyon wells and 3 were Avalon shale wells. The Company's net production in the second quarter of 2014 from horizontal Delaware Basin wells averaged approximately 49.1 MBoepd, a 55% increase over the second quarter of 2013 and an increase of 16% over the first quarter of 2014.
In the northern Delaware Basin, 31 new wells had at least 30 days of production by the end of the second quarter of 2014 and set new average production-rate records with an average 30-day rate of 931 Boepd (81% oil) and an average 24-hour peak rate of 1,420 Boepd from an average lateral length of 5,034 feet.
In the southern Delaware Basin, 8 new wells had at least 30 days of production by the end of the second quarter of 2014, with an average 30-day rate of 1,093 Boepd (81% oil) and an average 24-hour peak rate of 1,301 Boepd from an average lateral length of 5,401 feet.
Derivative Update
The Company maintains an active crude oil and natural gas hedging program and has continued to add to its derivative positions. Please see the “Derivatives Information” table at the end of this press release for more detailed information about the Company's current derivative positions.
Guidance Update
For the third quarter of 2014, the Company expects production to average between 113 - 116 MBoepd.
Following the close of Concho's equity offering in May 2014 and subsequent repayment of borrowings under the credit facility, the Company's full-year 2014 cash interest expense guidance range has been reduced to $210 - $215 million and the Company's non-cash interest expense guidance has been reduced to $10 million.
In the second quarter of 2014, the average discount on the Midland-to-Cushing West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) oil basis differential was approximately $8.37 per Bbl. The average discount for the months of July and August was $6.60 and $10.58 per Bbl, respectively. The Company's unhedged crude oil realization during the third quarter of 2014 is expected to be 88% - 90% of NYMEX crude oil. As a result of the widening of the Midland-to-Cushing WTI oil differential in the second and third quarters of 2014, the Company's full-year 2014 unhedged crude oil realization guidance range has been reduced to 90% - 92% of NYMEX crude oil.

Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Statements
The foregoing contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this press release specifically include statements, estimates and projections regarding the Company's future financial position, operations, performance, business strategy, capital expenditure budget, liquidity and capital resources, the timing and success of specific projects, outcomes and effects of litigation, claims and disputes, derivative activities and potential financing. The words “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “potential,” “could, “may,” “foresee,” “plan,” “goal” or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. These statements are based on certain assumptions made by the Company based on management's experience, expectations and perception of historical trends, current conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct. Moreover, such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. These include the factors discussed or referenced in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company's most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings and risks relating to declines in the prices the Company receives for its oil and natural gas; uncertainties about the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas reserves; drilling and operating risks, including risks related to properties where we do not serve as the operator and risks related to hydraulic fracturing activities; the adequacy of the Company's capital resources and liquidity including, but not limited to, access to additional borrowing capacity under our credit facility; the effects of government regulation, permitting and other legal requirements, including new legislation or regulation of hydraulic fracturing; difficult and adverse conditions in the domestic and global capital and credit markets; risks related to the concentration of the Company's operations in the Permian Basin of Southeast New Mexico and West Texas; disruptions to, capacity constraints in or other limitations on the pipeline systems that deliver the Company's oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas and other processing and transportation considerations; shortages of oilfield equipment, services and qualified personnel and increases in costs for such equipment, services and personnel; potential financial losses or earnings reductions from the Company's commodity price management program; risks related to the integration of acquired assets; uncertainties about the Company's ability to successfully execute our business and financial plans and strategies; uncertainties about the Company's ability to replace reserves and economically develop its current reserves; general economic and business conditions; competition in the oil and natural gas industry; uncertainty concerning the Company's assumed or possible future results of operations; and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.
We may use the terms “unproved reserves,” “resource potential,” “EUR” per well and “upside potential” to describe estimates of potentially recoverable hydrocarbons that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules prohibit from being included in filings with the SEC. These are based on analogy to the Company's existing models applied to additional acres, additional zones and tighter spacing and are the Company's internal estimates of hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially discovered through exploratory drilling or recovered with additional drilling or recovery techniques. These quantities may not constitute “reserves” within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineer's Petroleum Resource Management System or SEC rules. EUR estimates, resource potential and drilling locations have not been fully risked by Company management and are inherently more speculative than proved reserves estimates. Actual locations drilled and quantities that may be ultimately recovered from the Company's interests could differ substantially. There is no commitment by the Company to drill all of the drilling locations which have been attributed to these quantities. Factors affecting ultimate recovery include the scope of our ongoing drilling program, which will be directly affected by the availability of capital, drilling and production costs, availability of drilling services and equipment, drilling results, lease expirations, transportation constraints, regulatory approvals and other factors; and actual drilling results, including geological and mechanical factors affecting recovery rates. Estimates of unproved reserves, resource potential, per well EUR and upside potential may change significantly as development of the Company's oil and natural gas assets provide additional data. Our production forecasts and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the undertaking and outcome of future drilling activity, which may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

EBITDAX
EBITDAX (as defined below) is presented herein, and reconciled from the generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measure of net income because of its wide acceptance by the investment community as a financial indicator of a company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities.
The Company defines EBITDAX as net income, plus (1) exploration and abandonments expense, (2) depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, (3) accretion expense, (4) impairments of long-lived assets, (5) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, (6) (gain) loss on derivatives not designated as hedges, (7) cash receipts from (payments on) derivatives not designated as hedges, (8) (gain) loss on disposition of assets, net, (9) interest expense, (10) loss on extinguishment of debt, (11) federal and state income taxes on continuing operations and (12) similar items listed above that are presented in discontinued operations. EBITDAX is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP.
The Company's EBITDAX measure (which includes continuing and discontinued operations) provides additional information which may be used to better understand the Company's operations. EBITDAX is one of several metrics that the Company uses as a supplemental financial measurement in the evaluation of its business and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income, as an indicator of operating performance. Certain items excluded from 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 historic cost of depreciable assets, none of which are components of EBITDAX. EBITDAX, as used by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that EBITDAX is a widely followed measure of operating performance and is one of many metrics used by the Company's management team, and by other users, of the Company's consolidated financial statements. For example, EBITDAX can be used to assess the Company's operating performance and return on capital in comparison to other independent exploration and production companies without regard to financial or capital structure, and to assess the financial performance of the Company's assets and the Company without regard to capital structure or historical cost basis.
