FORT WORTH, TX today reported net income for the fourth quarter
of 2007 of $3.2 million, as compared to net income of $1.1 million
in the prior-year period. Full-year 2007 net income of $8.3 million
more than tripled from the prior-year net income of $2.4
million.
Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and
accretion ("EBITDA"), a non-GAAP measure, was $8.8 million for the
fourth quarter of 2007, as compared with $2.1 million in the fourth
quarter of 2006. For the year, EBITDA was $21.3 million in 2007
versus $5.5 million in 2006.
Fourth-Quarter 2007 Highlights
-- Increased adjusted gross margin, a non-GAAP measure, as a percent of
revenue to 66% versus the prior-year quarter of 52%
-- Increased average gathered volumes to nearly 145 MMcf per day; up 194%
versus the prior-year quarter
-- Increased average processed volumes to approximately 117 MMcf per day;
up 151% versus the prior-year quarter
-- Connected 67 new wells to the gathering system
-- Connected approximately 27 miles of gathering infrastructure
"We continue to capitalize on our substantial growth in both
gathering and processing volumes," said Toby Darden, Quicksilver
Gas Services president and chief executive officer. "Increased
utilization coupled with our continued focus on achieving operating
efficiencies have resulted in further improvement to our adjusted
gross margin."
Capital Program
Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter of 2007 totaled
$18.6 million. Expenditures during the quarter included the
connection of approximately 27 miles of gathering lines and 67 new
wells to the gathering system and upgrades to the company's
processing facility. The company now has 200 million cubic feet
(MMcf) per day of processing capacity and expects an additional 125
MMcf per day of capacity to become operational during the first
quarter of 2009.
On February 14, 2008, the company paid a cash distribution for
the 2007 fourth quarter of $.30 per unit.
