Important Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
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, that address activities
that Mariner assumes, plans, expects, believes, projects, estimates
or anticipates (and other similar expressions) will, should or may
occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Our
forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such
as "may", "will", "estimate", "project", "predict", "believe",
"expect", "anticipate", "potential", "plan", "goal", or other words
that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes.
Forward-looking statements provided in this press release are based
on Mariner's current belief based on currently available
information as to the outcome and timing of future events and
assumptions that Mariner believes are reasonable. Mariner does not
undertake to update its guidance, estimates or other
forward-looking statements as conditions change or as additional
information becomes available. Estimated reserves are related to
hydrocarbon prices. Hydrocarbon prices used in estimating reserves
may vary significantly from actual future prices. Therefore,
volumes of reserves actually recovered may differ significantly
from such estimates. Mariner cautions that its forward-looking
statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties
normally incident to the exploration for and development,
production and sale of oil and natural gas. These risks include,
but are not limited to, price volatility or inflation,
environmental risks, drilling and other operating risks, regulatory
changes, the uncertainty inherent in estimating future oil and gas
production or reserves, and other risks described in Mariner's
latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents filed by
Mariner with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Any of
these factors could cause Mariner's actual results and plans of
Mariner to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements. Investors are urged to read Mariner's latest Annual
Report on Form 10-K and other documents filed by Mariner with the
SEC.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of Mariner.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measure: Operating Cash Flow
Operating cash flow (OCF) is not a financial or operating
measure under generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America (GAAP). The table below reconciles OCF to
related GAAP information. Mariner believes that OCF is a widely
accepted financial indicator that provides additional information
about its ability to meet its future requirements for debt service,
capital expenditures and working capital, but OCF should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income,
operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any
other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with
GAAP or as a measure of a company's profitability or liquidity.
