- Overall Organic Year-Over-Year Production Increased 11 Percent
HOUSTON, Feb. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EOG Resources, Inc. (EOG)
today reported fourth quarter 2007 net income available to common
stockholders of $358.0 million, or $1.44 per share. This compares
to fourth quarter 2006 net income available to common stockholders
of $237.2 million, or $0.96 per share. For the full year 2007, EOG
reported net income available to common stockholders of $1,083.3
million or $4.37 per share as compared to $1,288.9 million, or
$5.24 per share, for the full year 2006. The results for the fourth
quarter 2007 included a tax benefit of $30.3 million ($0.12 per
share) related to a Canadian federal tax rate reduction, a $2.3
million ($0.01 per share) charge related to the premium and fees on
the repurchase of $38 million of EOG's Series B preferred stock and
a previously disclosed $45.2 million ($29.1 million after tax, or
$0.12 per share) net gain on the mark-to-market of financial
commodity price transactions. During the quarter, the net cash
realized related to financial commodity contracts was $28.8 million
($18.5 million after tax, or $0.08 per share). Consistent with some
analysts' practice of matching realizations to settlement months
and making certain other adjustments to exclude one-time items,
adjusted non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders for
the quarter was $319.4 million, or $1.29 per share. Adjusted
non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders for the fourth
quarter 2006 was $252.0 million, or $1.02 per share. On a similar
basis, eliminating the items detailed in the attached table,
adjusted non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders for
the full year 2007 was $1,074.2 million, or $4.34 per share, and
for the full year 2006 was $1,189.4 million, or $4.83 per share.
(Please refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of
adjusted non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders to
net income available to common stockholders.) "Despite volatile
natural gas prices, 2007 was an excellent year for EOG. Total
company production grew 11 percent and total reserves increased 14
percent at an attractive replacement cost. We were able to
accomplish these goals while maintaining a sound balance sheet,"
said Mark G. Papa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "These
positive results are a reflection of our consistent game plan -- to
grow organically through the drillbit with a focus on high returns
supported by a very conservative capital structure." Operational
Highlights EOG posted outstanding total company operational results
during 2007: -- Production increased 11 percent over 2006, driven
by the Fort Worth and Rocky Mountain operating areas. -- Natural
gas production rose 19 percent in the United States and 10 percent
overall primarily due to strong performance from operations in the
Fort Worth, East Texas and Rocky Mountain areas. -- Crude oil and
condensate production grew by 19 percent in the United States and
11 percent overall versus the prior year with the most significant
increase recorded in the North Dakota Bakken. -- Natural gas
liquids volumes increased 31 percent over 2006 with excellent
results from the Fort Worth, South Texas and Rocky Mountain
operating areas. Reserves At December 31, 2007, total company
reserves were approximately 7.7 trillion cubic feet equivalent, an
increase of 944 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe), or 14 percent
higher than year-end 2006. In 2007: -- Total reserve replacement
from all sources -- the ratio of net reserve additions from
drilling, acquisitions, revisions and dispositions to total
production -- was 248 percent at a total reserve replacement cost
of $2.24 per thousand cubic feet equivalent (Mcfe), excluding
gathering systems, processing plant and other expenditures. -- From
drilling alone, EOG added 1,534 Bcfe of reserves with drilling
capital expenditures of $3,548 million, excluding gathering
systems, processing plant and other expenditures, at a reserve
replacement cost of $2.31 per Mcfe prior to revisions, replacing
241 percent of production, -- In the United States, EOG added 1,580
Bcfe of reserves from drilling and acquisitions, net of revisions
with capital expenditures of $3,010 million, excluding gathering
systems, processing plant and other expenditures, at a reserve
replacement cost of $1.90 per Mcfe. (Please see attached tables for
supporting data for the reconciliation of non-GAAP drilling capital
expenditures to GAAP total costs incurred in exploration and
development activities and for the calculation of reserve
replacement percentages and reserve replacement costs.) For the
20th consecutive year, internal reserve estimates were within 5
percent of those prepared by the independent reserve engineering
firm of DeGolyer and MacNaughton. The firm prepared a complete
independent engineering analysis of properties containing 79
percent of EOG's proved reserves on a Bcfe basis. Capital Structure
At December 31, 2007, EOG's total debt outstanding was $1,185
million, and cash on the balance sheet was $54 million, for net
debt of $1,131 million. (Please refer to the attached tables for
the reconciliation of non-GAAP net debt to long-term debt.) EOG's
debt-to-total capitalization ratio was 14 percent at December 31,
2007. Further simplifying its capital structure, EOG repurchased
the remaining $43 million outstanding Series B preferred stock in
December 2007 and January 2008. Outlook for 2008 Consistent with
EOG's strategy of adding new reserves at high rates of return
through organic growth, the company plans to continue expansion of
its North American drilling program. The company expects
significant production gains from two high rate of return plays,
the Fort Worth Barnett Shale and North Dakota Bakken. EOG has
increased its total crude oil and condensate production growth
target from the previously stated 33 percent to 36 percent,
primarily as a result of expanded drilling operations in the North
Dakota Bakken. Natural gas liquids volumes are expected to rise by
40 percent over 2007 as EOG increases drilling activity in the
western extension counties of the Fort Worth Barnett Shale and
processes more of its rich natural gas. EOG's 2008 planned
exploration and development capital program is approximately $4.1
billion, which excludes acquisitions, gathering systems, processing
plant and other expenditures of approximately $280 million.
Considering the anticipated proceeds from the previously announced
divestiture of its Appalachian shallow natural gas assets, EOG is
targeting net debt at year-end 2008 to be relatively flat with
December 31, 2007. "Based on the current North American natural gas
market in which we expect 2008 Henry Hub gas prices will average at
least $7.50, we are targeting approximately 15 percent total
company production growth in 2008, the mid-point of our previously
stated range. Essentially all of our projected production growth
will emanate from our U.S. operations, since we expect production
from Canada, Trinidad and the United Kingdom to be relatively flat
with 2007 levels," said Papa. "Although we have a strong hedge
position in place, by closely monitoring natural gas fundamentals
and staying flexible, we are positioned to adjust our 2008 drilling
activity in response to a higher or lower gas price environment
while maintaining a conservative balance sheet." Dividend Increase
Following a 50 percent increase in 2007, EOG's Board of Directors
again increased the cash dividend on the common stock. Effective
with the dividend payable on April 30, 2008 to holders of record as
of April 16, 2008, the quarterly dividend on the common stock will
be $0.12 per share. The indicated annual rate of $0.48 per share
reflects a 33 percent increase from 2007, the eighth increase in
nine years. Conference Call Scheduled for February 8, 2008 EOG's
fourth quarter and full year 2007 results conference call will be

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other
than statements of historical facts, including, among others,
statements regarding EOG's future financial position, business
strategy, budgets, reserve information, projected levels of
production, projected costs and plans and objectives of management
for future operations, are forward-looking statements. EOG
typically uses words such as "expect," "anticipate," "estimate,"
"strategy," "intend," "plan," "target" and "believe" or the
negative of those terms or other variations or comparable
terminology to identify its forward-looking statements. In
particular, statements, express or implied, concerning future
operating results, the ability to replace or increase reserves or
to increase production, or the ability to generate income or cash
flows are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
are not guarantees of performance. Although EOG believes the
expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are based
on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these
expectations will be achieved. Important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from the expectations reflected
in EOG's forward-looking statements include, among others: -- the
timing and extent of changes in commodity prices for crude oil,
natural gas and related products, foreign currency exchange rates,
interest rates and financial market conditions; -- the extent and
effect of any hedging activities engaged in by EOG; -- the timing
and impact of liquefied natural gas imports; -- changes in demand
or prices for ammonia or methanol; -- the extent of EOG's success
in discovering, developing, marketing and producing reserves and in
acquiring oil and gas properties; -- the accuracy of reserve
estimates, which by their nature involve the exercise of
professional judgment and may therefore be imprecise; -- the
ability to achieve production levels from existing and future oil
and gas development projects due to operating hazards, drilling
risks and the inherent uncertainties in predicting oil and gas
reservoir performance; -- the availability and cost of drilling
rigs, experienced drilling crews, tubular steel and other
materials, equipment and services used in drilling and well
completions; -- the availability, terms and timing of mineral
licenses and leases and governmental and other permits and rights
of way; -- access to surface locations for drilling and production
facilities; -- the availability and capacity of gathering,
processing and pipeline transportation facilities; -- the
availability of compression uplift capacity; -- the extent to which
EOG can economically develop its Barnett Shale acreage outside of
Johnson County, Texas; -- whether EOG is successful in its efforts
to more densely develop its acreage in the Barnett Shale and other
production areas; -- political developments around the world and
the enactment of new government policies, legislation and
regulations, including environmental regulations; -- acts of war
and terrorism and responses to these acts; and -- weather,
including weather-related delays in the installation of gathering
and production facilities. In light of these risks, uncertainties
and assumptions, the events anticipated by EOG's forward-looking
statements may not occur. EOG's forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date made and EOG undertakes no obligation to update
or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise. The United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits oil and gas
companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved
reserves that a company has demonstrated by actual production or
conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally
producible under existing economic and operating conditions. As
noted above, statements of proved reserves are only estimates and
may be imprecise. Any reserve estimates provided in this press
release that are not specifically designated as being estimates of
proved reserves may include not only proved reserves, but also
other categories of reserves that the SEC's guidelines strictly
prohibit EOG from including in filings with the SEC. Investors are
urged to consider closely the disclosure in EOG's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, available from

RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED NET INCOME AVAILABLE TO COMMON
STOCKHOLDERS (Non-GAAP) TO NET INCOME AVAILABLE TO COMMON
STOCKHOLDERS (GAAP) (Unaudited; in thousands, except per share
data) The following chart adjusts three-month and twelve-month
periods ended December 31 reported Net Income Available to Common
Stockholders (GAAP) to reflect actual cash realized from financial
commodity price transactions by eliminating the unrealized
mark-to-market gains from these transactions, to add the premium
and fees for preferred stock redemptions in the third and fourth
quarters of 2007 and the fourth quarter of 2006, to add the
one-time tax expense related to Texas (US) franchise tax law
revision in the second quarter of 2006, and to eliminate the effect
of the income tax rate reductions enacted by Alberta (Canada) in
the second quarter of 2006 and by the Canadian federal government
in the second and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of
2006. EOG believes this presentation may be useful to investors who
follow the practice of some industry analysts who adjust reported
company earnings to match realizations to production settlement
months and make certain other adjustments to exclude one-time
items. EOG management uses this information for comparitive
purposes within the industry. Quarter Twelve Months Ended December

INC. Quantitative Reconciliation of Total Exploration and
Development Expenditures for Drilling Only (Non-GAAP) and Total
Exploration and Development Expenditures (Non-GAAP) as Used In the
Calculation of Reserve Replacement Costs ($ / Mcfe) to Total Costs
Incurred in Exploration and Development Activities (GAAP)
(Unaudited; In Millions, Except Ratio Information) The following
chart reconciles Total Costs Incurred in Exploration and
Development Activities (GAAP) to Total Exploration and Development
Expenditures for Drilling Only (Non-GAAP) and Total Exploration and
Development Expenditures (Non-GAAP), as used in the calculation of
Reserve Replacement Costs per Mcfe. There are numerous ways that
industry participants present Reserve Replacement Costs, including
"Drilling Only" and "All-In", which reflect total exploration and
development expenditures divided by total net reserve additions
from extensions and discoveries only, or from all sources. Combined
with Reserve Replacement, these statistics provide management and
investors with an indication of the results of the current year
capital investment program. Reserve Replacement Cost statistics are
widely recognized and reported by industry participants and are
used by EOG management and other third parties for comparative
purposes within the industry. Please note that the actual cost of
adding reserves will vary from the reported statistics due to
timing differences in reserve bookings and capital expenditures.
Accordingly, some analysts use three or five year averages of
reported statistics, while others prefer to estimate future cost.
EOG has not included future capital costs to develop proved
undeveloped reserves in Total Exploration and Development
Expenditures. United North States Canada America Trinidad Total
