"Our restructured portfolio delivered higher margins, as revenues climbed 10 percent on strong net realized oil and natural gas prices while overall costs fell, including a 24 percent decline in interest expense due to a $1.4 billion reduction in total debt compared with last year's second quarter.

"In addition, we improved our net debt (or debt less cash) to total capital ratio to 22 percent, versus 34 percent at this time last year," Hackett added.

              Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

Below is a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities
(GAAP) to discretionary cash flow (non-GAAP) as required under
Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The company uses
discretionary cash flow to demonstrate the company's ability to
internally fund capital expenditures and to service or incur
additional debt. It is useful in comparisons of oil and gas
exploration and production companies because it excludes fluctuations
in assets and liabilities.
