PHX Energy Services Corp. Reports Record Revenue & EBITDA, and Its Third Quarter Financial and Operational Results

01/11/2012 12:54am

Marketwired Canada


As a result of strong activity growth in the US and international operations,
PHX Energy Services Corp. ("PHX Energy") (TSX:PHX) generated an all-time record
level of revenue for any quarter. Consolidated revenue of $84.1 million for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2012 was achieved as compared to $78.0
million in the 2011-period; an 8 percent increase. EBITDA increased by 4 percent
to a quarterly record of $17.7 million for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2012 from $17.0 million in the 2011-period. As a percentage of
revenue, EBITDA was 21 percent in the 2012-quarter.


International operations continued to grow and operations in Albania and Russia
are again the strongest contributors to this growth. In the 2012-quarter, this
operating segment represented 12 percent of consolidated revenue as compared to
7 percent in the 2011-quarter. PHX Energy foresees its international operations
representing a greater percentage of consolidated revenue as growth continues
into future quarters. 


The 2012 capital expenditure program has been reduced slightly, and is expected
to be $49.5 million opposed to the previously announced $55.1 million. In the
third quarter $9.7 million was incurred, with a further $2.0 million of
equipment presently on order for delivery in the next few months.


On September 6, 2012, the Corporation entered into a new loan agreement with a
bank syndicate. Under the terms of the agreement, the Corporation now has access
to credit facilities aggregating to approximately $130.0 million for a term of
three years.


The Corporation continued its policy of rewarding its shareholders, and in the
2012-quarter, the Corporation paid dividends of $5.1 million or $0.18 per share;
this represented 26 percent of funds from operations.


PHX Energy ended the third quarter with long-term debt of $80.0 million and
working capital of $43.5 million.


On October 11, 2012, the Corporation subscribed for 9,500,000 common shares of
RMS Systems Inc. ("RMS") at a price of $0.18 per common share or approximately
$1.7 million. Upon closing of the transaction on October 22, 2012, PHX Energy
holds 19.5 percent interest in RMS. RMS is the Corporation's joint venture
partner in its equity-accounted investee, RigManager International Inc. PHX
Energy sees this additional investment in the RigManager technology as a
strategic investment as it increases the Corporation's ability to participate in
the information and data management sector of the oil and natural gas industry.

Non-GAAP Measures

PHX Energy uses certain performance measures throughout this document that are
not recognizable under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"). These performance measures include earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA per share, funds from
operations and funds from operations per share. Management believes that these
measures provide supplemental financial information that is useful in the
evaluation of the Corporation's operations and are commonly used by other oil
and gas service companies. Investors should be cautioned, however, that these
measures should not be construed as alternatives to measures determined in
accordance with GAAP as an indicator of PHX Energy's performance. The
Corporation's method of calculating these measures may differ from that of other
organizations, and accordingly, these may not be comparable. Please refer to the
non-GAAP measures section.

Despite weaknesses in the Canadian market, PHX Energy reported record quarterly
consolidated revenue through strong growth realized in the US and in the
Corporation's international regions. For the three-month period ended September
30, 2012, PHX Energy generated revenue of $84.1 million as compared to $78.0
million in the corresponding 2011-period; an increase of 8 percent. US and
international revenue as a percentage of total consolidated revenue were 48 and
12 percent, respectively, for the 2012-quarter as compared to 35 and 7 percent
in 2011. Consolidated operating days slightly decreased by 2 percent to 6,932
days in 2012 as compared to 7,078 in the 2011-quarter. Average consolidated day
rates for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, excluding the motor
rental division in Midland, Texas, increased to $11,873, which is approximately
8 percent higher than the day rates of $11,016 in the third quarter of 2011.
This increase is due to growth in international areas and greater utilization of
the Corporation's resistivity while drilling ("RWD") technology. 


Horizontal and directional drilling as a percentage of total drilling continues
to increase in both Canada and the US. In the 2012-quarter, horizontal and
directional drilling represented nearly the entire Canadian market at
approximately 95 percent of total industry drilling days (2011 - 89 percent). In
the US, horizontal and directional activity levels in the third quarter of 2012
remained consistent with prior quarters' levels, rising marginally to 72 percent
of the rigs running per day (2011 - 70 percent). (Sources: Daily Oil Bulletin
and Baker Hughes)


For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, consolidated revenue
increased by 19 percent to $222.2 million from $186.5 million for the comparable
2011-period. Consolidated operating days for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2012 grew by 6 percent to 18,241 days as compared to 17,248 days
in 2011.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------



Direct costs are comprised of field and shop expenses, and include depreciation
and amortization on the Corporation's equipment. Excluding depreciation and
amortization, gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 33 percent for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2012 as compared to 32 percent in the
comparable 2011-period. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012,
gross profit as a percentage of revenue, excluding depreciation and
amortization, was 28 percent as compared to 29 percent in 2011.


The improvement in margins for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012
was fueled by higher average day rates realized in all of PHX Energy's operating
segments as well as aided by the expansion of the motor rental division in
Midland, Texas and greater utilization of the Corporation's RWD technology. In
addition, the Corporation continued to lower its third party equipment rentals,
which decreased to 2 percent of consolidated revenue for the three-month period
ended September 30, 2012 compared to 5 percent in the corresponding
2011-quarter. 


However, margins were adversely affected by increased performance drilling motor
repair costs in Canada and the US and by lower staff utilization rates in Canada
as a result of weaker activity levels. Management continues to review and
evaluate different cost reduction initiatives to improve profitability. 


Depreciation and amortization for the three-month period ended September 30,
2012 increased by 32 percent to $5.5 million as compared to $4.1 million in the
2011-quarter. The increase is the result of the Corporation's record levels of
capital expenditure programs in 2011 and 2012.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------



SG&A costs for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 increased by 8
percent to $9.3 million as compared to $8.6 million in 2011. Included in SG&A
costs are share-based payments of $0.4 million for the 2012-quarter and $1.0
million for the 2011-quarter. Excluding these costs, SG&A costs as a percentage
of consolidated revenue for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 and
2011 were both 10 percent. 


For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, SG&A costs increased by 13
percent to $26.0 million as compared to $23.1 million in 2011. Excluding
share-based payments of $1.9 million in the 2012 nine-month period and $2.5
million in the corresponding 2011-period, SG&A costs as a percentage of
consolidated revenue were 11 percent in both periods.


The increase in SG&A costs in both 2012-periods is due to greater payroll and
marketing related costs, primarily associated with strong US and international
activity. Additionally in the 2012-quarter there were greater payroll related
expenses relating to retention awards granted. 


Share-based payments relate to the amortization of the fair values of issued
options of the Corporation using the Black-Scholes model. Share-based payments

increased to $0.9 million from $0.5 million in the 2011-quarter, and increased
to $2.1 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 from $1.5
million in 2011. In order to fund PHX Energy's extensive capital expenditure
programs in 2011 and 2012, additional bank borrowings were incurred.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------



In the third quarter of 2012, other income is generally represented by gains on
disposition of drilling equipment of $1.0 million (2011 -$2.2 million),
partially offset by foreign exchange losses of $0.5 million (2011 - $0.7
million). Other income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 is
mostly represented by gains on disposition of drilling equipment of $2.2 million
(2011 - $3.7 million), partially offset by foreign exchange losses of $1.2
million (2011 - $0.5 million). 


Foreign exchange losses resulted mainly from fluctuations in the LEK-CDN
exchange rates. Albanian LEK devalued in both 2012-periods. 


The dispositions of drilling equipment relate primarily to equipment lost in
well bores that are uncontrollable in nature. These gains are reported net of
any asset retirements that are made before the end of the equipment's useful
life and self-insured down hole equipment losses, if any. Gains typically result
from insurance programs undertaken whereby proceeds for the lost equipment are
at current replacement values, which are higher than the respective equipment's
book value. There were fewer occurrences of losses in the 2012-periods as
compared to the corresponding 2011-periods.

September 30, 2012, the provision for income taxes was $4.4 million as compared
to $5.2 million in 2011. The expected combined Canadian federal and provincial
tax rate for 2012 is 25 percent. The effective tax rate in the 2012 three-month
period of 31 percent is higher than the expected rate due mainly to the
profitability of US operations where tax rates are higher. The effective tax
rate in the 2012 nine-month period was 25 percent.

The Corporation's level of net earnings in the third quarter of 2012 decreased
due in part to higher depreciation and income taxes. For the three and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, EBITDA increased primarily due to
improved margins and activity growth in the US and in international regions.
EBITDA as a percentage of revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2012 were 21 and 16 percent, respectively (2011 - 22 percent and
17 percent). 


Segmented Information:

The Corporation reports three operating segments on a geographical basis
throughout the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia,
and Manitoba; throughout the Gulf Coast, Northeast and Rocky Mountain regions of

Canadian revenue for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 decreased
by 26 percent to $33.8 million (2011 - $45.6 million) as operating days
decreased by 30 percent to 2,841 days (2011 - 4,082 days). In comparison, the
overall average rigs running per day in the Canadian industry decreased
approximately 26 percent, however as a result of horizontal and directional
wells growing to represent a greater percentage of total industry activity,
horizontal and directional drilling activity, as measured by drilling days, in
the 2012-quarter was 9 percent lower, 36,884 days, than the 2011-quarter, 40,529
days. (Source: Baker Hughes and Daily Oil Bulletin) On the positive side, the
average day rates increased by 6 percent to $11,882 in the 2012-quarter from
$11,161 in the 2011-quarter.


In the 2012-quarter, PHX Energy's horizontal oil well drilling activity (as
measured by operating days) continued to increase representing approximately 87
percent of its overall Canadian activity as compared to 77 percent in the
2011-quarter. However, the Corporation's overall activity was impacted by lower
drilling activity that was experienced generally throughout the industry and by
reduced capital spending of several key clients due to poor equity markets. PHX
Energy's activity in the third quarter picked up in the Bakken and Cardium and
some heavy oil projects in Alberta were added. In addition, the Corporation
remained active in the Montney, Viking, Spearfish, and Shaunavon, and maintained
a diversified client base. 


For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, PHX Energy's Canadian
revenue decreased by 6 percent to $94.4 million from $100.6 million in the
comparable 2011-period. The number of horizontal and directional drilling days
realized in the Canadian industry during the nine-month period ended September
30, 2012 decreased by 4 percent to 94,411 days as compared to 98,758 days in
2011. (Source: Daily Oil Bulletin) In comparison, the Corporation's Canadian
operating days decreased by 14 percent to 7,738 days in the nine-month period
ended September 30, 2012 from 9,021 days in 2011. Oil well drilling activity
represented 81 percent of PHX Energy's Canadian activity for the 2012 nine-month
period as compared to 76 percent in 2011. 


Reportable segment profit before tax for the third quarter of 2012 decreased to
$5.5 million from $10.5 million in the 2011-quarter. For the nine-month period
ended September 30, 2012, reportable segment profit before tax decreased by 30
percent to $12.0 million from $17.2 million in the 2011-period. Decreased
profitability realized during both periods was due to lower levels of activity
combined with higher infrastructure costs.

Phoenix USA continued to grow for the second consecutive quarter, reporting a
record level of activity and revenue during the third quarter of 2012. For the
three-month period ended September 30, 2012, revenue of $40.3 million was
generated compared to $27.0 million in the 2011-period; a 49 percent increase.
The Corporation's US operating days grew by 30 percent to a record 3,314 days
from 2,544 days in the 2011-quarter. Overall day rates realized, excluding the
motor rental division in Midland, Texas, also increased by 10 percent in the
2012-quarter to $11,644 compared to $10,614 in the 2011-quarter. The increased
utilization of the Corporation's RWD technology in the US contributed to the
stronger day rates. 


The Gulf Coast region and Rocky Mountain region in the US had record revenue in
the quarter driven by higher activity in West Texas in the Permian Basin, South
Texas in the Eagleford, East Texas in the Barnett, North Dakota in the Bakken
and Wyoming in the Powder River and Niobrara.


PHX Energy continues to expand its marketing team in all US areas and these
efforts are beginning to make a positive impact on activity levels. Horizontal
oil well drilling represented approximately 58 percent of Phoenix USA's overall
activity, as measured by drilling days, in the three-month period ended
September 30, 2012 as compared to 36 percent in the 2011-period. US industry
activity, as measured by the average number of horizontal and directional rigs
running on a daily basis, was 2 percent higher in the third quarter of 2012 with
1,375 rigs running as compared to 1,354 rigs in the 2011-quarter. This level of
activity represented 72 percent of total US industry activity in the
2012-quarter compared to 70 percent in 2011. (Source: Baker Hughes)


US revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 increased by 43
percent to $99.9 million from $70.0 million in the comparable 2011-period. US
industry activity, as measured by the average number of horizontal and
directional rigs running on a daily basis, grew by 9 percent for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2012 to 1,388 rigs as compared to 1,278 rigs in the
comparable 2011-period. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012,
horizontal and directional drilling activity in the US represented approximately
71 percent of total industry activity, compared to 70 percent in 2011. (Source:
Baker Hughes) The Corporation's US operating days increased by approximately 21
percent to 8,383 days in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 from
6,946 days in 2011. 


Reportable segment income before tax for the third quarter of 2012 increased by
86 percent to $7.6 million from $4.1 million in the 2011-quarter. For the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, reportable segment profit before tax
increased by 90 percent to $10.1 million from $5.3 million in 2011. The increase
in profitability in the 2012-quarter is the continued result of activity growth
and higher day rates. However, to some extent, this was negatively impacted by
higher performance drilling motor repair costs incurred in the 2012-quarter.

PHX Energy's international operations once again generated record quarterly
revenue and operating days in the third quarter of 2012. Revenue increased by 84
percent to a record $10.0 million from $5.4 million in the 2011-quarter and
operating days grew by 72 percent from 452 days in the 2011-quarter to a record
777 days in the 2012-quarter. Albania and Russia, as in the past, led this
growth. The Corporation generated 12 percent of its consolidated revenue from
international operations in the 2012-quarter compared to 7 percent in the
2011-quarter. 


For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, revenue increased by 76
percent to $28.0 million as compared to $15.9 million in 2011. Operating days
for the same period grew from 1,281 days in 2011 to 2,121 days in 2012; a 66
percent increase.


Phoenix Albania continued to operate on 5 consecutives rigs for most of the
2012-quarter and it was the most active international area for the Corporation.
RMS' electronic drilling recorder systems, which are being supplied by PHX
Energy's joint venture RigManager International Inc., are now completely
installed and currently running on all 5 rigs. Since commencing operations in
2008, PHX Energy has successfully drilled in excess of 258 wells in Albania. To
satisfy client demand, an RWD tool has been added to Phoenix Albania's fleet and
resistivity work will begin in the last quarter of 2012. The Corporation
presently has a 5 job capacity in Albania. 


Phoenix Russia has successively achieved a record level of revenue and activity
in each quarter of 2012 and the Corporation continued to solidify its presence
in the Russian market by delivering strong operational performance to its
clients in the third quarter of 2012. Invitations to tender have been received
from several new clients and Phoenix Russia has initiated the recruitment of
additional marketing personnel to pursue further opportunities. To support the
Russian business, local staff continue to be hired and trained. 


In the third quarter of 2012, Phoenix Colombia saw growth in activity and has
achieved its highest revenue quarter to date. During the quarter Colombia's
activity reached 2 simultaneous jobs, however, one of the operator's drilling
activities was forced to a halt for an unspecified period. It is anticipated
that future growth will be realized in upcoming quarters from the potential
award of bids that have been tendered. PHX Energy's operations in Colombia
currently have a 5 job capacity.


Phoenix Peru's activity in the 2012-quarter fell short of expectation. Clients
reduced or postponed their drilling activity due to delays in licensing and
permits as well as poor weather conditions. As a result, some resources from
Peru have been allocated to Colombia to support business development there.
Phoenix Peru currently has a job capacity of 4 full service jobs.


For the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, reportable segment profit
before tax was $2.4 million, an increase of 373 percent compared to $0.5 million
in the corresponding 2011-period. Reportable segment profit before tax for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 was $7.3 million as compared to $2.7
million in 2011; a 166 percent increase. Greater profitability has resulted
primarily due to activity levels in Albania and Russia. 


Investing Activities 

Net cash used in investing activities for the three-month period ended September
30, 2012 was $18.0 million as compared to $5.2 million in 2011. The Corporation
made an additional $0.3 million investment in the joint venture company
RigManager International Inc. in the form of preferred shares and added $9.7
million in capital equipment in the third quarter of 2012 as compared to $12.9
million in the 2011-quarter. These quarterly 2012 expenditures included:




--  $7.1 million in down hole performance drilling motors; 
--  $1.8 million in measurement while drilling ("MWD") systems and spare
    components; 
--  $0.4 million in machinery and equipment for global service centers, 
--  $0.3 million in other assets, and; 
--  $0.1 million in non-magnetic drill collars and jars. 



The capital expenditure program undertaken in the year was financed from a
combination of cash flow from operations, long-term debt and working capital. 


The Corporation realized proceeds from the involuntary disposal of drilling
equipment in well bores of $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2012, as
compared to $3.1 million in the 2011-quarter. The change in non-cash working
capital balances of $10.4 million (use of cash) for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2012 relates to $9.6 million of net change in the Corporation's
trade payables that are associated with the acquisition of capital assets and
$0.8 million of progress billings associated with a shop under construction that
is currently being held for sale. This compares to $4.5 million (source of cash)
for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011. 


During the third quarter of 2012, PHX Energy's job capacity increased by 2
concurrent jobs to 206 through the addition of 1 E-360 electromagnetic ("EM")
MWD system and 1 RWD system. As at September 30, 2012, the Corporation's MWD
fleet consisted of 133 P-360 positive pulse MWD systems, 61 E-360 EM MWD
systems, and 12 RWD systems. Of these, 81 MWD systems were deployed in Canada,
96 in the US, 15 in Russia, 5 in Albania, 4 in Peru, and 5 in Colombia. 


At September 30, 2012, the Corporation had on order an additional 4 E-360 EM MWD
systems, all of which are expected to be deployed by the end of the year. As a
result, by the end of 2012 the Corporation expects to have a fleet of 210 MWD
systems, which would be comprised of 133 P-360 positive pulse MWD systems, 65
E-360 EM MWD systems and 12 RWD systems. 


Financing Activities 

The Corporation reported cash flows from financing activities of $10.6 million
in the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $8.5 million
in the 2011 period. In the 2012-quarter:




--  the Corporation paid dividends of $5.1 million to shareholders, or $0.18
    per share; 
--  through its option and DRIP program the Corporation received cash
    proceeds of $0.2 million from exercised options and reinvested dividends
    to acquire 29,782 common shares of the Corporation; and 
--  the Corporation received net proceeds from its operating facility and
    syndicated facility an aggregate of $15.4 million to finance its capital
    expenditure program. 



Capital Resources 

On September 6, 2012, the Corporation entered into a new syndicated loan
agreement with its bank. Under the new agreement, the Corporation has access to
a $10.0 million operating facility. The facility bears interest based primarily
on the Corporation's senior debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined in the agreement.
At the Corporation's option, interest is at the bank's prime rate plus a margin
that ranges from a minimum of 0.75 percent to a maximum of 2.00 percent, or the
bank's bankers' acceptance rate plus a margin that ranges from a minimum of 1.75
percent to a maximum of 3.00 percent. The facility matures on September 6, 2015.
The maturity date can be extended for another year at the option of the lender.
As of September 30, 2012, the Corporation had $6.2 million drawn as bank
overdraft on this facility.


As at September 30, 2012, the Corporation also had access to a $95.0 million
syndicated facility. The facility bears interest at the same rate as the
operating facility. The syndicated facility will permanently reduce to $80.0
million on September 30, 2013. The remaining $80.0 million facility matures on
September 6, 2015. The maturity date can be extended for another year at the
option of the lender. As at September 30, 2012, $93.0 million was drawn on this
facility, of which $13.0 million was classified as current. 


In addition, as at September 30, 2012, the Corporation had access to a US$25.0
million operating facility in the US. The facility bears interest at the same
rate as the operating facility. The facility matures on September 6, 2015. The
maturity date can be extended for another year at the option of the lender. As
at September 30, 2012, the Corporation had nil drawn on this facility.


All the credit facilities are secured by a general security agreement over all
assets of the Corporation located in Canada and the US. As at September 30,
2012, the Corporation was in compliance with all of its bank debt covenants. 


Cash Requirements for Capital Expenditures 

Historically, the Corporation has financed its capital expenditures and
acquisitions through cash flows from operating activities, debt and equity. The
2012 capital budget is expected to be at $49.5 million. These planned
expenditures are expected to be financed from a combination of one or more of
the following, cash flow from operations, the Corporation's unused credit
facilities or equity, if necessary. However, if a sustained period of market
uncertainty and financial market volatility persists in 2012, the Corporation's
activity levels, cash flows and access to credit may be negatively impacted, and
the expenditure level would be reduced accordingly. Conversely, if future growth
opportunities present themselves, the Corporation would look at expanding this
planned capital expenditure amount. 


Outlook 

In the third quarter of 2012, PHX Energy achieved record revenue and other
financial benchmarks, due to its strategy to grow in the US and in its
international regions, despite slower Canadian activity. PHX Energy entered 2012
focused on core strategies to increase shareholder value by growing in areas
where the Corporation's market share was lower and by improving margins; thus
far there have been many strides in the right direction. There also have been
challenges to overcome due to uncertainty around oil and natural gas prices, a
volatile world economy and reduced rig utilization in Canada. 


In Canada, the third quarter activity was adversely impacted as exploration and
production companies cut drilling budgets to protect their balance sheets.
Equity market financing was almost non-existent. PHX Energy anticipates that
higher drilling utilization levels will only return to meaningful levels when
these capital markets are available. Despite this, the industry is focused on
oil well drilling and almost all wells in Canada now require directional or
horizontal services. PHX Energy will continue to concentrate on providing
superior service and on building relationships, albeit that the current and
future industry outlook limits opportunities for strong growth. 


PHX Energy's US operations achieved increases in operating days and
profitability. Due to the greater demand in a number of areas in the US,
additional assets were transferred from areas with lower forecasted activity,
while at the same time, capital expenditures continue to keep pace with the
growing demand. A strong marketing and operations team is now in place and the
Corporation foresees continued growth in the US, although it may be at a slower
pace than in the first part of the year. 


Internationally, quarterly results have been at record levels in 2012, with
higher profits being generated in the third quarter as compared to past
quarters. The Corporation has hired and trained local personnel in all
international areas, which has had a positive impact on margins. In addition,
PHX Energy continues to deploy leading edge technologies that create a
competitive advantage in most of these markets. In Albania, PHX Energy has
worked to create further drilling efficiency, and as such deployed its RWD
technology. Similarly, PHX Energy's reputation as a service provider has grown
in Russia, and in efforts to gain increased exposure in this market additional
assets have been deployed. In Colombia, the Corporation has encountered a few
obstacles, however, these are expected when building a presence in a new market.
PHX Energy foresees that there are opportunities for additional international
growth.


PHX Energy's goal for improving profitability and margins has progressed and its
core initiatives are creating the intended results. The Corporation continues to
focus on cost saving programs, and opportunities to deploy technologies that
generate additional revenue streams. In spite of this, there are certain
challenges related to margins in areas were industry activity has slowed, like
Canada and the northeastern US, such as downward pressures on day rates and the
costs associated with an infrastructure that was built up to support larger
operations. PHX Energy will continue to further examine cost saving
opportunities throughout its operations. 


Looking forward, PHX Energy is cautious about activity levels in many operating
areas and this, coupled with the upcoming holiday season, will likely lead the
fourth quarter results to be slightly lower than those achieved in the third
quarter. However PHX Energy anticipates that its diversified operations and
client base will assist with achieving its objectives in the upcoming months.
The Corporation will strive for increases in operating days and market share as
it continues to focus on the areas where its greatest opportunities exist. 


As always, shareholder value remains at the forefront and through future
dividends and growth, PHX Energy is committed to creating long-term benefits for
its shareholders.

Non-GAAP Measures

1) EBITDA 

EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, is not a financial measure that is recognized under GAAP. However,
Management believes that EBITDA provides supplemental information to net
earnings that is useful in evaluating the Corporation's operations before
considering how it was financed or taxed in various countries. Investors should
be cautioned, however, that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative
measure to net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP. PHX Energy's method
of calculating EBITDA may differ from that of other organizations and,
accordingly, its EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other companies.


The following is a reconciliation of net earnings to EBITDA:

(Stated in thousands of dollars)



                                    Three-month periods   Nine-month periods
                                    ended September 30,  ended September 30,

Add (deduct):                                                               
Depreciation and amortization           5,495     4,149     15,536    11,724

EBITDA per share - diluted is calculated using the treasury stock method whereby
deemed proceeds on the exercise of the share options are used to reacquire
common shares at an average share price. The calculation of EBITDA per share on
a dilutive basis does not include anti-dilutive options.


2) Funds from Operations

Funds from operations is defined as cash flows generated from operating
activities before changes in non-cash working capital. This is not a measure
recognized under GAAP. Management uses funds from operations as an indication of
the Corporation's ability to generate funds from its operations before
considering changes in working capital balances. Investors should be cautioned,
however, that this financial measure should not be construed as an alternative
measure to cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with
GAAP. PHX Energy's method of calculating funds from operations may differ from
that of other organizations and, accordingly, it may not be comparable to that
of other companies. 


The following is a reconciliation of cash flows from operating activities to
funds from operations:
