Chaparral Steel Company (CHAP) Reports Q2 Loss of $0.49, Revenues Beat

Chaparral Steel Company (NYSE: CHAP) reported Q2 EPS of ($0.49), versus $0.09 reported last year. Revenue for the quarter came in at $59.63 million versus the consensus estimate of $57.63 million.

“The second quarter was a strong and extremely productive quarter for Chaparral,” said Chief Executive Officer Earl Reynolds. “We continue to see strong performance from our STACK wells, particularly our Merge Meramec in Canadian County and our Osage and Meramec wells in Garfield County. As a result of this success and our strong balance sheet, we will be adding an additional rig before the end of the year and, although we will not realize production from those additional wells until early 2019, we feel extremely confident in raising our 2018 STACK and total company production guidance to 13.0 to 14.0 MBoe/d and 19.0 to 20.0 MBoe/d respectively.”

“We also further strengthened our balance sheet and long-term financial stability during the quarter,” commented Reynolds. “We successfully completed a $300 million unsecured senior notes offering, which allowed us to pay down the entire outstanding balance of our revolving credit facility and significantly increased our liquidity. In addition, we also recently uplisted our common stock from the OTCQB market to the NYSE, which provides us with access to a much larger potential investor base and should ultimately generate more liquidity for our stock as we work to create long-term value for our stockholders.”
