HOUSTON, April 14, 2020 (Globe Newswire) – Harvest Oil & Gas Corp. (OTCQX: HRST) (“Harvest” or the “Company”) today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2019 and the filing of its Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In addition, Harvest announced its 2019 year-end proved reserves and provided guidance for 2020.

Key Highlights

Average daily production was 53.1 MMcfe for the fourth quarter of 2019

Made a cash distribution of $7.00 per share in October 2019

Entered into a new $10 million credit facility in October 2019

In December 2019, closed on the sale of substantially all of Harvest’s remaining oil and natural gas properties in the Barnett Shale for $6.2 million, net of preliminary purchase price adjustments

In December 2019, closed on the sale of substantially all of Harvest’s oil and natural gas properties in the Permian Basin for total consideration of $2.9 million, net of purchase price adjustments, and expect a subsequent closing for total consideration of $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2020, subject to customary purchase price adjustments

In March 2020, signed a purchase and sale agreement to sell all of Harvest’s oil and natural gas properties in Michigan for a purchase price of $4.8 million, subject to an adjustment based on the value of certain derivative contracts and other customary purchase price adjustments, with an expected closing during the second quarter of 2020

In conjunction with divestitures during the fourth quarter, unwound certain commodity derivative contracts in January 2020 for cash settlements received of $1.1 million

The Company continues to review strategic alternatives following the divestiture of significant assets during 2019. The Company is actively considering the potential divestiture of all of its remaining assets as well as a potential sale or merger of the Company. In addition, Harvest is pursuing options to reduce its overall cost structure to more closely align with its asset base.

For the fourth quarter of 2019, Harvest reported a net loss of $(22.1) million, or $(2.17) per basic and diluted weighted average share outstanding, compared to a net income of $34.3 million, or $3.41 per basic and diluted weighted average share outstanding, for the fourth quarter of 2018. For the third quarter of 2019, Harvest reported a net loss of $19.5 million, or $(1.93) per basic and diluted weighted average share outstanding. Included in 2019 fourth quarter net loss were the following items:

$13.5 million of impairment charges primarily related to proved oil and natural gas properties located in Michigan, the Barnett Shale, and the Mid-Continent area,

$4.4 million of non-cash losses on commodity derivatives,

$0.4 million loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties,

$0.4 million of stock-based compensation costs contained in general and administrative expenses,

$0.5 million of divestiture and transaction related expenses contained in general and administrative expenses, and

$0.1 million of litigation settlement expenses contained in general and administrative expenses.

Production for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 3.7 Bcf of natural gas, 121 Mbbls of oil and 75 Mbbls of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”), or 53.1 million cubic feet equivalent per day (Mmcfe/day). This represents a 63 percent decrease from the fourth quarter of 2018 production of 144.9 Mmcfe/day and a 46 percent decrease from the third quarter of 2019 production of 98.1 Mmcfe/day. The decrease in production from the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily due to divestitures in 2019 in the Barnett Shale, the San Juan Basin, the Mid-Continent area and the Monroe Field in Northern Louisiana. The decrease in production from the third quarter of 2019 was primarily due to the Barnett Shale, Mid-Continent area and the Monroe Field divestitures that closed during the third and fourth quarters of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDAX for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $(0.6) million. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDAX from the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily attributable to the divestitures that closed in 2019 and lower realized natural gas prices, partially offset by an increase in cash settlements received on commodity derivative contracts. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDAX from the third quarter of 2019 was primarily attributable to the Barnett Shale, Mid-Continent area and Monroe Field divestitures that closed during the third and fourth quarters of 2019 and a decrease in cash settlements received on commodity derivative contracts and on termination of commodity derivative contracts in conjunction with divestitures, partially offset by higher natural gas and natural gas liquids prices, and a decrease in cash general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure and is described in the below table under “Non-GAAP Measures.”

Represents cash payments during the period

For 2019, Harvest reported a net loss of $138.3 million compared to a net loss of $586.6 million for 2018. Included in net loss for 2019 were the following items:

$129.1 million of impairment charges related to the sale of proved oil and natural gas properties located in the Barnett Shale, San Juan Basin, Permian Basin, Mid-Continent area, and the Monroe Field, and oil and natural gas properties located in Michigan, which were under a purchase and sale agreement entered into in March 2020,

$16.6 million of non-cash losses on commodity derivatives,

$4.6 million of gain on equity securities,

$2.5 million of stock-based compensation costs contained in general and administrative expenses, and

$2.4 million of divestiture and transaction related expenses contained in general and administrative expenses.

Production for 2019 was 25.5 Bcf of natural gas, 591 Mbbls of oil and 1.2 Mmbbls of natural gas liquids, or 99.9 Mmcfe/day. This represents a 41 percent decrease from the 2018 production of 170.5 Mmcfe/day. The decrease from 2018 production was primarily due to the divestitures of oil and natural gas properties in 2018 and 2019.

Adjusted EBITDAX for 2019 was $28.3 million, a 69 percent decrease as compared to 2018. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDAX as compared to 2018 is primarily due to divestitures that closed in 2018 and 2019 and a decrease in realized oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids prices, partially offset by an increase in cash settlements received on commodity derivative contracts, a decrease in general and administrative expenses and an increase in other income.

Commodity Hedges

In January 2020, Harvest terminated the following hedge positions in connection with divestitures that closed during the fourth quarter of 2019 at a net gain of $1.1 million.

Year-end 2019 Estimated Net Proved Reserves

Harvest’s year-end 2019 estimated net proved reserves were 156 Bcfe. Approximately 76 percent were natural gas, 21 percent were crude oil and 3 percent were natural gas liquids. As specified by the SEC, the prices for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids were the average prices during the year determined using the price on the first day of each month. The prices utilized in calculating the Company’s total estimated proved reserves at December 31, 2019 were $55.69 per Bbl of oil and $2.58 per MMBtu of natural gas.

At December 31, 2019, our proved reserves had a standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows of $106.9 million and a present value of future net pre-tax cash flows attributable to estimated net proved reserves, discounted at 10 percent per annum (“PV-10”) of $110.5 million based on SEC pricing. PV–10, is a computation of the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows on a pre–tax basis and is computed on the same basis as standardized measure but does not include a provision for federal income taxes, Texas gross margin tax or other state taxes. PV–10 is considered a non–GAAP financial measure under the regulations of the SEC. We believe PV–10 to be an important measure for evaluating the relative significance of our oil and natural gas properties. We further believe investors and creditors may utilize our PV–10 as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our reserves to other companies. PV–10, however, is not a substitute for the standardized measure. See the attached table under “Non-GAAP Measures” for a reconciliation of standardized measure to PV-10. Our PV–10 measure and standardized measure do not purport to present the fair value of our reserves.

(1)

In March of 2020, Harvest signed a purchase and sale agreement to sell all oil and natural gas properties in Michigan representing 55.8 Bcfe of the Company’s 2019 year-end proved reserves. The divestiture is considered 100% developed.

For comparative purposes, utilizing NYMEX forward closing prices for oil and natural gas at April 8, 2020 for January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2031, total proved reserves at December 31, 2019 were 152.3 Bcfe, with a PV–10 of $78.7 million, a decrease of 3.5 Bcfe versus SEC reserves and $31.8 million versus PV–10 using SEC prices. The unweighted average of the NYMEX strip prices used were $44.23 per Bbl of oil and $2.46 per MMBtu of natural gas. NYMEX forward strip-based proved reserves were calculated based on the SEC proved reserves estimation methodology, but applying NYMEX forward strip prices rather than SEC prices. We believe that investors and creditors may utilize our NYMEX strip-based PV-10 as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our reserves to other companies. The PV–10 of our NYMEX forward strip-based reserves is not a substitute for the standardized measure and does not purport to present the fair value of our reserves.

Non-GAAP Measures

We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income (loss) plus income tax expense (benefit); interest expense, net; depreciation, depletion and amortization; accretion expense on obligations; (gain) loss on derivatives, net; cash settlements of matured commodity derivative contracts; non-cash equity-based compensation; impairment of oil and natural gas properties; non-cash oil inventory adjustment; dry hole and exploration costs; (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties; reorganization items, net; and loss (gain) on equity securities.

Adjusted EBITDAX is used by the Company’s management to provide additional information and statistics relative to the performance of the business, including (prior to the creation of any reserves) the cash return on investment. The Company believes this financial measure may indicate to investors whether or not it is generating cash flow at a level that can support or sustain quarterly interest expense and capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income and operating income, and this measure may vary among companies. Therefore, Harvest’s Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
