PITTSBURGH, Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CNX Gas Corporation (NYSE: CXG), a leading Appalachian producer, reported net income attributable to CNX Gas shareholders of $41.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. This compares to $57.5 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Annual 2009 net income attributable to CNX Gas shareholders was $164.5 million, or $1.09 per share, compared to $239.1 million, or $1.58 per share, in 2008.
Production was 25.1 billion cubic feet (Bcf), or 273 million cubic feet (MMcf) per day, for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. This was the third consecutive quarterly production record, and 13% higher than the 22.2 Bcf, or 242 MMcf per day, for the year-ago quarter. Annual 2009 production was 94.4 Bcf, an increase of 23% over the 76.6 Bcf produced in 2008.
"CNX Gas ended 2009 on a very strong footing. Once again, we set another quarterly production record, and our employees continued working safely, having passed the 4-million hour mark without incurring a lost-time incident," said J. Brett Harvey, chairman and chief executive officer. "With our increasing Virginia coalbed methane production and our continued Marcellus Shale success, we expect 2010 production of 100 Bcf. To support this goal, we have contracted for a second horizontal rig to begin drilling in the Marcellus Shale on March 1.
"CNX Gas increased production by 23% in 2009 while paying down about $15 million of debt. And as we reported earlier this week, we also increased our proved reserves in 2009 by one-half trillion cubic feet (Tcf), or 34%, to 1.9 Tcf. When viewed together with our 2009 return on capital employed of 10.6% on an after-tax basis, there is no doubt that CNX Gas is a premier company in the E&P industry."

Unit lifting costs were lower in the just-ended quarter, in part, because of fewer workovers conducted. Water volumes from CBM production were down, as were water handling rates due to reduced drilling. Lower water volumes also contributed to lower road maintenance costs. Higher gas production volumes also helped to lower unit lifting costs.
Unit production taxes were much lower in the just-ended quarter because they are calculated on average realized price before the effect of hedging. Due to market conditions, these prices were significantly lower in the just-ended quarter. Unit production taxes were also lower because of a revised estimate of a pending litigation settlement.
Unit production DD&A was higher in the just-ended quarter as more plant assets in Northern Appalachia were placed into service.
Higher production volumes helped to lower unit gathering operating costs.
Unit firm transportation costs have increased due to acquiring additional capacity in the Northern Appalachian region in anticipation of greater production volumes.
Safety
During the fourth quarter, CNX Gas employees crossed the 4-million hour mark without incurring a lost time accident. As of December 31, the cumulative time worked by employees without a lost time incident was nearly 4.1 million hours.
Central Appalachia Operations
Total production in Central Appalachia, which includes Virginia CBM and Chattanooga Shale, was 19.2 Bcf in the quarter ended December 31, 2009. This was 1.2 Bcf higher than the 18.0 Bcf produced in the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The Central Appalachia December run rate was 199 MMcf per day.
CNX Gas drilled 201 vertical frac wells in its Virginia CBM Operations during the year, exceeding the goal of 175. CNX Gas expects to drill 175 wells in Virginia in 2010 with a drilling budget of $50 million.
For 2010, CNX Gas expects to drill 25 Chattanooga Shale wells for about $28 million, and five Huron Shale wells for about $12 million.
Northern Appalachia Operations
Total production in Northern Appalachia, which includes Mountaineer CBM, Nittany CBM, and Marcellus Shale, was 5.9 Bcf in the quarter ended December 31, 2009. This was 1.7 Bcf more than the 4.2 Bcf produced in the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The Northern Appalachia December run rate was 63 MMcf per day.
Of this Northern Appalachian production, 1.5 Bcf was from the Marcellus Shale in the just-ended quarter, versus less than 0.1 Bcf in the same quarter last year.
No coalbed methane wells were drilled in Northern Appalachia in the just-ended quarter. For 2010, CNX Gas expects to drill 5 horizontal CBM wells in Mountaineer and some ancillary wells for about $17 million.
In the Marcellus Shale, CNX Gas drilled, completed, and brought online one vertical well and two horizontal wells. The first of the two horizontal wells, GH 11C CV, has shown a 30-day daily production rate of 1.6 MMcf. This well has only 1,600 lateral feet, due to acreage constraints. The second horizontal well, GH 11B CV, is currently producing from only the first two frac stages at a 30-day production rate of 0.8 MMcf. This 1,800-ft lateral well is expected to see more normal levels of production when the remaining 3 stages are fraced.
For the entire horizontal Marcellus Shale program to date, 13 horizontal wells have been drilled. The reserves associated with the first 11 wells total 35.6 Bcf, or about 3.3 Bcf per well. The laterals on these wells averaged less than 2,000 feet.
Upcoming drilling in the Marcellus Shale is expected to be predominantly horizontal and on multiple-well pads, with laterals closer to 3,000 feet. For 2010, the company expects to drill approximately two dozen horizontal wells, with a drilling budget of about $110 million.
CNX Gas successfully increased its acreage with Marcellus Shale potential by 20,000 in the quarter, to a year-end total of 250,000. Of this, approximately 170,000 acres is considered to be Tier 1. The company remains committed to expanding its footprint to 400,000 acres.
Financial Update
The company continues to monitor and evaluate capital spending to ensure adequate liquidity and to preserve options for possible external investment. With regard to capital, CNX Gas intends to spend largely within its net cash from operating activities for 2010. Capital expenditures are targeted for $400 million, with $221 for drilling, $121 million for midstream, and the remainder for land.
The company ended the quarter with $57.8 million drawn on its $200 million credit facility. The amount drawn is down $15.2 million from September 30, 2009. Cash on hand was $1.1 million.
CNX Gas also has outstanding letters of credit of $14.9 million. Total funds available are $128.4 million.
Return on capital employed for the year was 10.6%, on an after tax basis, compared to 18.5% in 2008.
Guidance
The 2010 production guidance remains at 100 Bcf. CNX Gas expects to be able to achieve this production by adding a second horizontal rig drilling in the Marcellus Shale on March 1, the continued drilling of CBM frac wells in Virginia, and some ancillary drilling. While 2010 plans could be refined later in the year, the company views this as a realistic starting point.
Total hedged production in the 2010 first quarter is 13.0 Bcf, at an average price of $8.76 per Mcf.

Economic Outlook
The U.S. economy began growing in the third quarter of 2009, at an annual rate of 2.2% and continued growing in the fourth quarter. Due to the significant fiscal spending and relaxed monetary policy in the United States, a modest recovery appears likely to continue in the U.S. through 2010. This should lead to an increase in demand for energy products from industrial customers, power generators and steel producers. Depending on the pace and sustainability of the recovery, we believe substantial opportunities exist for our gas business.
Natural Gas Outlook
At the onset of the winter heating season, natural gas in storage fields was at record high levels. Because of much colder than normal weather in much of the U.S. from mid-December through mid-January, gas in storage has been drawn down to normal levels. The economic recovery is expected to positively affect industrial and commercial demand. Gas prices have now strengthened to the point where it makes sense for CNX Gas to add a second horizontal rig to its Marcellus Shale drilling program for 2010. CNX Gas, with its low costs and rising production volumes, is expected to benefit from this improved pricing.
Conference Call Information
CNX Gas and CONSOL Energy will co-host a conference call today at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time to discuss the company's fourth quarter results. The teleconference can be heard "live" at the investor relations portion of the company web site: http://www.cnxgas.com/.
Definition: EBIT is defined as earnings (excluding cumulative effect of accounting change) before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) and income taxes. EBITDA is defined as earnings (excluding cumulative effect of accounting change) before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income), income taxes, and depreciation, depletion and amortization. Although EBIT and EBITDA are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that they are useful to an investor in evaluating CNX Gas because they are widely used to evaluate a company's operating performance before debt expense and its cash flow. EBIT and EBITDA do not purport to represent cash generated by operating activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because all companies do not calculate EBIT and EBITDA identically, the presentation here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliation of EBITDA and EBIT to the income statement is as follows:

Although ROCE is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that ROCE is a useful measure because it indicates the return on all capital, which includes equity and debt, employed in the business. Management believes that ROCE is an additional measure of efficiency when considered in conjunction with return on equity, which measures the return on only the shareholders' equity component of total capital employed.
