DENVER, May 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bonanza Creek Energy, Inc. BCEI (the "Company" or "Bonanza Creek") today announced its first quarter 2020 financial results and operating outlook. The Company has also posted an updated investor presentation to its website.
Highlights of the first quarter 2020 include:
- Average sales volumes of 24.8 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day ("MBoe/d"), an increase of 2% compared to fourth quarter 2019
- Updating annual production guidance to a range of 23.0 - 25.0 MBoe/d, resetting the lower end as a result of reduced 2020 capital expenditures, primarily non-operated activity
- Capital expenditures of $41.1 million for the first quarter
- Annual capital expenditure guidance of $60 - $70 million; the midpoint reduced 28% from previously announced range and 71% from original 2020 guidance range
- Lease operating expense ("LOE") of $2.52 per Boe for the first quarter; down 16% from fourth quarter 2019, and down 15% from full year 2019
- Reducing annual LOE guidance to a range of $2.50 - $2.90 per Boe; down 6% from prior midpoint guidance, and down 8% from full year 2019 result
- Rocky Mountain Infrastructure ("RMI") first quarter 2020 net effective cost(1) was $1.07 per Boe, which consists of approximately $1.78 per Boe of RMI operating expense offset by $0.71 per Boe of RMI operating revenue from working interest partners
- Recurring cash general and administrative ("G&A")(1) expense, which excludes stock-based compensation and cash severance costs, was $7.8 million for the quarter or $3.44 per Boe, approximately flat with fourth quarter 2019, and down 8% from full year 2019
- Reduced annual recurring cash G&A guidance to a range of $27 - $29 million, down 8% from original 2020 guidance range, and down nearly 13% from full year 2019 result
- Borrowings under the credit facility were reduced by $21 million to $59 million, and exited the first quarter with over $300 million in liquidity and a leverage ratio of 0.2x
- GAAP net income of $78.6 million, or $3.80 per diluted share, including a $4.31 non-cash gain on derivatives
- Adjusted EBITDAX(1) of $43.3 million, or $2.09 per diluted share
(1) Non-GAAP measure; see attached reconciliation schedules at the end of this release.
Eric Greager, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bonanza Creek, commented, "In these tumultuous times, we remain focused on the health and productivity of our team, and on executing a predictable, low-cost, value-conscious operating model. Despite our relatively small size, we're proud to deliver a cost structure that is among the lowest in the industry."
Greager continued, "We responded quickly to deteriorating market conditions during the quarter by reducing our 2020 capital plan and implementing significant cost savings. Our revised annual production guidance acknowledges uncertainties in the market, and despite the substantial reduction to 2020 capital, we believe we can deliver a flat year-over-year production profile in 2020. We'll continue to focus on maximizing reservoir performance through engineering and applied science, while we pay down our revolver and look for low-cost opportunities to increase our scale."
First Quarter 2020 Results
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company reported average daily sales of 24.8 MBoe/d. Product mix for the quarter was 54% oil, 20% NGLs, and 26% residue natural gas, which was relatively consistent with fourth quarter 2019. The table below provides sales volumes, product mix, and average sales prices for the first quarter 2020 and 2019.

Capital expenditures were $41.1 million for the first quarter of 2020. During the quarter, the Company drilled 14 gross (10.1 net) operated standard reach lateral ("SRL") wells, and completed 8 gross (7.3 net) operated wells, five of which were extended reach lateral ("XRL") wells. There were 16 gross (12.5 net) wells turned to sales, eleven of which were XRL wells.
Net oil and gas revenue for the first quarter of 2020 was $60.4 million compared to $79.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The decrease was a result of lower oil, natural gas, and NGL realized prices. Crude oil accounted for approximately 84% of total revenue for the quarter. Differentials for the Company's oil production during the quarter averaged approximately $5.77 per barrel off NYMEX WTI, and the Company expects its oil differential to average between $4.75 and $5.25 per barrel in 2020.
The Company's contracted base differential increased from $4.25 per barrel in 2019 to $5.25 beginning in January 2020, and will remain at that level through 2023 on volumes up to 20,000 gross barrels per day. In January 2020, WTI averaged over $55.00 per barrel, and therefore, this base differential was subject to an escalator. When average monthly WTI falls below $55.00 per barrel, the escalator no longer applies. For oil transported via our pipeline, the base differential (including any escalator) is lowered by $1.25 - $1.50, depending on volume. Trucked volumes are subject to the base differential (including any escalator) plus certain additional fees for crude oil with an API gravity in excess of 42 degrees ("light crude").
LOE for the first quarter of 2020 on a unit basis decreased 16% to $2.52 per Boe from $3.01 per Boe in the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company is implementing approximately $8 million in LOE and RMI operating expense savings compared to the original 2020 plan, and has reduced its annual LOE guidance to a range of $2.50 to $2.90 per Boe accordingly.
Rocky Mountain Infrastructure ("RMI") first quarter 2020 net effective cost was $1.07 per Boe, which consists of approximately $1.78 per Boe of RMI operating expense offset by $0.71 per Boe of RMI operating revenue from working interest partners. RMI operating revenue from working interest partners is based on production volumes, and the fees are not tied to oil or natural gas prices.
The Company's general and administrative ("G&A") expenses were $9.4 million for the first quarter of 2020, which included $1.2 million in non-cash stock-based compensation and $0.4 million related to one-time cash severance costs. Recurring cash G&A, which excludes stock-based compensation and cash severance, of $7.8 million for the first quarter of 2020 remained relatively consistent with fourth quarter 2019, but the Company expects future amounts to decrease as a result of implemented cost reductions. On a per unit basis, the Company's recurring cash G&A decreased 8% from $3.74 per Boe for full year 2019 to $3.44 per Boe in the first quarter of 2020.
RMI net effective cost and recurring cash G&A are non-GAAP measures. Please see Schedule 7 and Schedule 8 at the end of this release for a reconciliation to the relevant GAAP measure.

Schedule 5: Adjusted Net Income
(in thousands, except per share amounts, unaudited)
Adjusted net income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management to present recurring profitability that is more comparable between periods by excluding items that are non-recurring in nature or items which are not easily estimable. Management believes adjusted net income provides external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements such as industry analysts, investors, creditors, and rating agencies with additional information to assist in their analysis of the Company. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income (loss) after adjusting first for (1) the impact of certain non-cash items and one-time transactions and then (2) the non-cash and one-time items' impact on taxes based on a tax rate that approximates the Company's effective tax rate in each period. Adjusted net income is not a measure of net income (loss) as determined by GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) to the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted net income.

Schedule 6: Adjusted EBITDAX
(in thousands, unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management to provide a metric of the Company's ability to internally generate funds for exploration and development of oil and gas properties. The metric excludes items which are non-recurring in nature and/or items which are not reasonably estimable. Management believes adjusted EBITDAX provides external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies with additional information to assist in their analysis of the Company. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, impairment, exploration expenses and other similar non-cash and non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income (loss) or cash flows as determined by GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDAX.
