Production volumes during the three months ended December 31, 2009 were 8.7 Bcfe, 20 percent higher compared to 7.2 Bcfe during the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase was largely due to new production contributions from the Barnett Shale development. Adjusted revenues from the sale of oil and natural gas production were $50.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, which includes oil and gas revenues of $37.5 million and realized hedge gains of $13.1 million, compared to $44.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, which includes oil and gas revenues of $36.2 million and realized hedge gains of $7.9 million. The increase in adjusted revenues was primarily driven by increased production, partially offset by lower realized oil and natural gas prices. Carrizo's average natural gas sales price decreased four percent to $5.63 per Mcf for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $5.86 per Mcf for the fourth quarter of 2008 and the average oil sales price decreased five percent to $72.43 per barrel for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $76.44 per barrel for the fourth quarter of 2008. The above prices include the impact of realized hedges. Results excluding the impact of realized hedges are presented in the table below.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company reported adjusted net income of $11.7 million, or $0.38 and $0.37 per basic and diluted share, respectively, excluding an aggregate net $80.2 million non-cash, after-tax charge, comprised of (1) the impairment of oil and natural gas properties of $78.1 million, (2) stock-based compensation expense of $1.8 million, (3) an unrealized mark-to-market gain of $1.0 million on derivatives, (4) non-cash interest expense of $1.0 million associated with the amortization of the equity premium on the Company's convertible notes, and (5) bad debt expense of $0.3 million. For the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Company reported adjusted net income of $5.7 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share, excluding an aggregate net $98.4 million non-cash, after-tax charge, comprised of (1) the impairment of oil and natural gas properties of $116.0 million, (2) an unrealized mark-to-market gain of $19.4 million on derivatives, (3) stock-based compensation expense of $0.9 million and (4) non-cash interest expense of $0.9 million associated with the amortization of the equity premium on the Company's convertible notes. The Company reported a net loss of $68.5 million, or $2.20 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2009, as compared to net loss of $92.7 million, or $3.01 per basic and diluted share, for the same quarter during 2008.
EBITDA (earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, impairment of oil and natural gas properties and certain other items described in the table below) during the fourth quarter of 2009 was $34.2 million, or $1.10 and $1.08 per basic and diluted share, respectively, as compared to $30.1 million, or $0.98 and $0.97 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during the fourth quarter of 2008.
Lease operating expenses (excluding production taxes and transportation costs) were $6.1 million (or $0.70 per Mcfe) during the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $6.5 million (or $0.90 per Mcfe) for the fourth quarter of 2008. The decrease in lease operating expenses was due to a decrease in service costs partially offset by a 20 percent increase in production from 7.2 Bcfe to 8.7 Bcfe. The decline in service costs per Mcfe was driven primarily by the increase in production from our Tarrant County Barnett Shale area, which has comparatively less associated salt water production that must be disposed of than production from other areas.
Transportation costs were $5.8 million (or $0.66 per Mcfe) during the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to $3.0 million (or $0.41 per Mcfe) during the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase in transportation costs per Mcfe was largely due to the greater proportion of the Company's total production volume attributable to the Barnett Shale Tarrant County area, which has a higher weighted-average transportation cost per Mcfe.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses ("DD&A") were $12.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2009 ($1.38 per Mcfe) as compared to $16.4 million ($2.28 per Mcfe) during the fourth quarter of 2008. The lower DD&A expenses were due primarily to a lower depletion rate resulting from the impairment charges in fourth quarter 2008 and first quarter 2009, and due to lower overall finding-costs of new reserves added in the fourth quarter of 2009.
The significant decline in oil and natural gas prices beginning in mid-2008 and continuing in 2009 caused the discounted present value (discounted at 10 percent) of future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves to fall below the net book basis of the proved oil and gas properties. This resulted in a pre-tax non-cash ceiling test write-down of $122.5 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2009.
General and administrative expenses ("G&A") were $4.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.
Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense was $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2008. The increase was primarily due to additional deferred compensation awards and the payment of quarterly bonuses with stock-based awards, in lieu of cash.
A $14.8 million net gain on derivatives was recorded for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to a net gain of $37.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2008. The fourth quarter 2009 gain consisted of (1) the unrealized mark-to-market gain on natural gas derivatives of $1.7 million and (2) the realized gain on natural gas derivatives of $13.1 million. The fourth quarter 2008 gain consisted of (1) the unrealized mark-to-market gain on natural gas derivatives of $29.9 million and (2) the realized gain on natural gas derivatives of $7.9 million.
Cash interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, was $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $1.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase was primarily attributable to lower levels of capitalized interest and interest expense associated with the higher debt levels on the revolving credit facility.
Interest expense (non-cash), net of amounts capitalized increased to $1.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 from $1.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, due to lower levels of capitalized interest.
Results for the Year Ended 2009 --
-- Record Production of 33.0 Bcfe, or 90,532 Mcfe/d -- Revenue of $121.3 million or Adjusted Revenue of $196.5 million, including the impact of realized hedges -- Net Loss of $204.8 million, or Adjusted Net Income of $46.7 million before the non-cash charges noted below -- EBITDA, as defined below, of $141.3 million
Production volumes for the year ended December 31, 2009 were a record 33.0 Bcfe, 29 percent higher than the 25.6 Bcfe produced in 2008. Adjusted revenues from the sale of oil and natural gas production were $196.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, which includes oil and gas revenues of $121.3 million and realized hedge gains of $75.2 million, compared to $207.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, which includes oil and gas revenues of $210.1 million and realized hedge losses of $3.0 million. The decrease in adjusted revenues was primarily driven by lower realized oil and natural gas prices, partially offset by increased production. Carrizo's average natural gas sales price for 2009 decreased 26% to $5.74 per Mcf compared to $7.74 per Mcf for 2008, and the average oil sales price for 2009 decreased 24% to $74.84 per barrel from $98.20 per barrel for 2008. The above prices include the impact of realized hedges. Results excluding the realized hedges are presented in the table below.
For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company reported adjusted net income of $46.7 million, or $1.51 and $1.49 per basic and diluted share, respectively, excluding an aggregate $251.5 million of non-cash, after-tax charge comprised of (1) the impairment of oil and natural gas properties of $216.0 million, (2) a mark-to-market unrealized loss of $22.1 million on derivatives, (3) stock-based compensation expense of $7.2 million, (4) non-cash interest expense of $3.8 million associated with the amortization of the equity premium on the Company's convertible notes, (5) impairment of investment of $1.3 million, (6) a non-cash contribution expense of $0.6 million to the University of Texas at Arlington and (7) bad debt expense of $0.5 million. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company reported adjusted net income of $53.6 million, or $1.77 and $1.74 per basic and diluted share, respectively, excluding the $98.6 million of non-cash, after-tax charge, comprised of (1) the impairment of oil and natural gas properties of $116.0 million, (2) the $3.7 million non-cash loss on early extinguishment of debt under the second lien credit facility, (3) the $2.2 million loss on early settlement of interest rate swaps associated with debt under the second lien credit facility, (4) a mark-to-market unrealized gain of $28.5 million on derivatives, (5) stock-based compensation expense of $3.7 million and (6) non-cash interest expense of $1.5 million associated with the amortization of the equity premium on the Company's convertible notes. The Company reported a net loss of $204.8 million, or $6.61 per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to a net loss of $45.0 million, or $1.49 per basic and diluted share, for 2008.
EBITDA (earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, the impairment of oil and natural gas properties, and certain other items described in the table below) for 2009 was $141.3 million, or $4.56 and $4.51 per basic and diluted share, respectively, as compared to $151.6 million, or $5.00 and $4.93 per basic and diluted share, respectively, during 2008.
Lease operating expenses (excluding production taxes and transportation costs) increased to $23.7 million (or $0.72 per Mcfe) during 2009 as compared to $23.4 million (or $0.91 per Mcfe) for 2008. The increase in lease operating expenses was due to the 29 percent increase in production from 25.6 Bcfe to 33.0 Bcfe partially offset by a decrease in service costs. The decline in service costs per Mcfe was driven primarily by the increase in production from our Tarrant County Barnett Shale area, which has comparatively less associated salt water production that must be disposed of than production from other areas.
Transportation costs were $15.1 million (or $0.46 per Mcfe) for 2009 as compared to $9.4 million (or $0.37 per Mcfe) during 2008. The increase in transportation costs per Mcfe was largely due to the greater proportion of the Company's total production volume attributable to the Barnett Shale Tarrant County area, which has a higher weighted-average transportation cost per Mcfe.
Production taxes were $0.1 million during year ended 2009 as compared to $5.1 million for 2008. The decrease was primarily due to the decline in natural gas revenues and a $1.9 million severance tax refund in 2009 from certain wells that qualified for a tight-gas sands tax credit for prior production periods.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses ("DD&A") were $52.0 million for 2009 ($1.57 per Mcfe) as compared to $58.3 million ($2.27 per Mcfe) for 2008. The lower DD&A expenses were primarily due to a lower depletion rate resulting from the impairment charges in the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, which reduced the depletable full cost pool, and due to lower overall finding costs of new reserves added in the fourth quarter of 2009.
The significant decline in oil and natural gas prices during 2009 caused the discounted present value (discounted at 10 percent) of future net cash flows from proved oil and natural gas reserves to fall below the net book basis of the Company's proved oil and gas properties. As a result, the Company recorded a $122.5 million pre-tax non-cash, ceiling test impairment during the fourth quarter of 2009. Due to lower prices, the Company also recorded a pre-tax non-cash, ceiling test impairment at the end of the first quarter of 2009 of $216.4 million.
General and administrative expenses ("G&A") decreased to $16.3 million during 2009 from $17.6 million during 2008, primarily due to payment of bonuses with stock-based awards, in lieu of cash.
During the third quarter of 2009, we made the first $100,000 cash payment of a $1.0 million pledge to establish a Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. endowed scholarship fund at the University of Texas at Arlington, a university which is located within the area of our significant operations in the Barnett Shale play. The Company has the option of paying the remaining portion of this pledge in shares of common stock.
Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense was $11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $6.0 million for the prior year. The increase was due primarily to the issuance of stock-based awards, in lieu of cash, to pay 2008 discretionary bonuses and quarterly bonuses to non-executive employees.
A $40.6 million net gain on derivatives was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to a net gain of $40.8 million for 2008. The 2009 net gain consisted of (1) the unrealized mark-to-market loss on oil and natural gas derivatives of $34.6 million and (2) the realized gain on oil and natural gas derivatives of $75.2 million. The 2008 net gain consisted of (1) the unrealized mark-to-market gain on oil and natural gas derivatives of $43.8 million and (2) the realized loss on oil and natural gas derivatives of $3.0 million.
Cash interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, was $12.7 million for 2009 compared to $7.4 million for 2008. The increase was primarily attributable to lower levels of capitalized interest and interest expense associated with the higher debt levels on the revolving credit facility.
Interest expense (non-cash), net of amounts capitalized increased to $5.9 million for 2009 from $2.3 million for 2008, primarily due to a full year of amortization of the equity premium associated with the Company's convertible notes issued in May 2008 and higher levels of capitalized interest.
S.P. "Chip" Johnson IV, Carrizo's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Given the difficult industry and economic conditions throughout the year, 2009 exceeded our modest expectations for reserve and production growth. Despite low gas prices and our lower level of drilling and completions, it appears our 20% growth in proved reserves will place us high in the ranks of our industry peers. In the Barnett Shale, our improved drilling and completion efficiencies and the lack of material connection delays helped lead to a 43% increase in production for the year and a 39% increase in proved developed Barnett reserves, both above our expectations. We anticipate reporting one of the lowest reserve finding and development costs in the industry in 2009, which is a credit to our technical staff and reflects the quality of our asset portfolio.
"We are looking forward to the beginning of the development of our Marcellus acreage position with our partner, Avista Capital, as we move from the land acquisition phase to the drilling phase in 2010."
