WAYZATA, Minn., Nov. 8, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. (NYSE/Amex: NOG) ("Northern Oil") today announced record quarterly production volumes, as well as record quarterly revenues and operating income, excluding the impact of unrealized hedging losses.

THIRD QUARTER 2010 RESULTS

Northern Oil's production volumes for the third quarter of 2010 were a quarterly record of 250,129 barrels of oil equivalent ("BOE"), representing a 45% increase compared to the second quarter of 2010 and a 182% increase compared to the third quarter of 2009.  These results exceeded previous guidance of a 30% to 35% quarter-over-quarter production increase and represents Northern Oil's eleventh consecutive quarterly increase in production.  

Third quarter 2010 production consisted of 96% crude oil and approximately 4% associated natural gas.  Northern Oil exited the third quarter of 2010 with production volumes of approximately 3,406 BOE per day.  During the third quarter of 2010, production was added from approximately 5.75 net wells.  Northern Oil has maintained a 100% drilling success rate in the Williston Basin Bakken and Three Forks trends since the company's inception.

Revenues from the sale of crude oil and natural gas, including hedge settlements, for the third quarter of 2010 were $16,317,530, which represents a 36% increase compared to the second quarter of 2010 and a 236% increase compared to the third quarter of 2009.  

During the third quarter of 2010, Northern Oil's average realized price for crude oil was $69.64 per barrel, which included a $3.22 per barrel gain due to the settlement of crude oil derivative contracts.  This compares to an average $70.98 per barrel realized price in the second quarter of 2010, which included a $1.83 per barrel gain due to the settlement of crude oil derivative contracts, and an average $58.44 per barrel realized price in the third quarter of 2009, which included a $3.38 per barrel loss due to the settlement of crude oil derivative contracts.

Northern Oil's reported production expenses for the third quarter of 2010 were $1,084,769, or $4.19 per BOE, on an accrued basis, compared to $561,427, or $3.30 per BOE, in the second quarter of 2010 and $236,362, or $2.45 per BOE, in the third quarter of 2009.  The higher production expense is a result of more mature wells utilizing artificial lift and a general aging of Northern Oil's production.

Depletion expense for the third quarter of 2010 was $3,767,712, or $15.06 per BOE, compared to $2,600,836, or $15.06 per BOE, for the second quarter of 2010 and $935,804, or $10.56 per BOE, for the third quarter of 2009.  

General and Administrative (G&A) expenses, net of share based compensation, for the third quarter of 2010 were $899,661, compared to $718,471 in the second quarter 2010.

Northern Oil's net income was $987,226, or $0.02 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2010.  Northern Oil's net income, excluding unrealized mark-to-market hedging losses, was $4,961,803, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2010, which represents a 42% increase over net income, excluding unrealized mark-to-market hedging losses, of $3,502,667, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2010.

Northern Oil defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (i) interest expense, (ii) income taxes, (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (iv) accretion of abandonment liability, (v) pre-tax unrealized gain and losses on commodity risk and (vii) non-cash expenses relating to share based payments recognized under ASC Topic 718.  Northern Oil's Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2010 was $12,772,433, or $0.24 per diluted share, which represents a 32% increase over Adjusted EBITDA of $9,677,386, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2010.

Net income excluding unrealized mark-to-market hedging gains and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures.  A reconciliation of these measures to GAAP is included in our accompanying financial tables found later in this release.  Northern Oil's management believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors to gain an overall understanding of current financial performance.  Specifically, management believes the non-GAAP results included herein provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses and unrealized commodity gains and losses that management believes are not indicative of Northern Oil's core operating results.  In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are used by Northern Oil's management for budgeting and forecasting as well as subsequently measuring Northern Oil's performance, and management believes that Northern Oil is providing investors with financial measures that most closely align to its internal measurement processes.  

Northern Oil's capital expenditures relating to exploration and development activities approximated $103 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2010 and are expected to approximate $132 million for the entire 2010 fiscal year based on wells currently drilling and expected to spud by 2010 year-end.

OPERATIONS UPDATE AND INCREASED PRODUCTION GUIDANCE

As of November 5, 2010, Northern Oil is participating in the drilling or completion of 91 gross Bakken or Three Forks wells, for an aggregate of 10.72 net wells drilling, awaiting completion or completing.  Of those wells, 5.05 net wells are drilling but have not reached total depth, an additional 4.99 net wells have been drilled to total depth and are awaiting completion and the remaining 0.68 net wells are undergoing fracture stimulation to commence production.

As of November 5, 2010, Northern Oil has spud approximately 23.68 net wells during 2010.  Management now expects to spud approximately 25 net wells throughout 2010, up from previous guidance of 24 net wells, and expects to increase production volumes further by 30 to 35% in the fourth quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2010.

* Initial production rate (the "IP" rate) is the 24-hour "Peak Production Rate." Peak Production Rates may be established following the initial day of production, depending on operator design or well flowback profiles. The IP rate may be estimated based on other third party estimates or limited data available at this time.


** The initial BOE production per day ("IP/BOEPD") for each well, the days used to compute the average BOE per day ("AVG. BOEPD") and the average BOE produced per day ("AVG. BOEPD") during such computation periods IP/BOEPD and AVG. BOEPD rates for these wells include only crude oil production because associated natural gas production was not available.


*** Average barrels of oil equivalents per day ("AVG. BOEPD") exclude any days a well was down for work/maintenance. All information in the foregoing table was obtained through operator drilling reports, operator daily production reports and certain Oil & Gas Division reports publicly available through North Dakota Industrial Commission.


ACREAGE ACQUISITIONS AND PRODUCTION PROJECTIONS

Year-to-date through September 30, 2010, Northern Oil has acquired approximately 38,864 net acres for an aggregate price of $42.2 million, or an average price of $1,086 per acre.  Northern Oil expects to continue to opportunistically acquire acreage throughout the remainder of 2010 and 2011.  Based on 2010 and anticipated 2011 activity and assuming drilling activity within the Williston Basin continues at its current pace, We expect to average approximately 6,500 BOE per day in production for 2011.

MANAGEMENT COMMENT

Michael Reger, Northern Oil's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The third quarter was our best ever in terms of production volumes, Adjusted EBITDA, and key acreage acquisition.  The value of our non-operated franchise is best illustrated by the fact that 80% of the acreage we acquired in the third quarter has already been drilled or is currently drilling.  We believe we are well positioned to remain focused on the best areas of this rapidly advancing play and turn our acreage to production quickly and efficiently.  We look forward to further success in 2011 as we continue to gain critical mass and participate with the many skilled operators driving technology and growth in this premier oil play."

Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond our Company's control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following: oil and gas prices, our ability to raise capital, general economic or industry conditions nationally and/or in the communities in which our Company conducts business, changes in the interest rate environment, legislation or regulatory requirements, conditions of the securities markets, our ability to raise capital, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, financial or political instability, acts of war or terrorism, other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting our Company's operations, products, services and prices.  

We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events.  While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.
