Capital investments includes a decrease of $6 million and an increase of $43 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, relating to the change in accrued expenditures between periods.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Southwestern Energy recorded net income of $1.9 billion, or $1.76 per diluted share, including a gain on mark-to-market of unsettled derivatives. Excluding this and other one-time items, adjusted net income (non-GAAP) was $346 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, and Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $799 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.1 billion, net cash flow (non-GAAP) was $764 million and free cash flow (non-GAAP) was $99 million.

During the quarter, the Company fully redeemed its outstanding 7.75% Senior Notes due 2027 utilizing cash on hand and borrowings under its revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2023, Southwestern Energy had total debt of $3.95 billion and net debt to adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) of 1.2x. At the end of the quarter, the Company had $210 million of borrowings under its revolving credit facility and $89 million in outstanding letters of credit.

The Company is currently rated one notch below an investment grade credit rating by all three credit agencies. In January 2023, S&P updated Southwestern Energy to positive outlook, joining Fitch, which updated the Company to positive outlook in August 2022.

As indicated in the table below, first quarter 2023 weighted average realized price was $3.48 per Mcfe, excluding the impact of derivatives and net of $0.27 per Mcfe of transportation expenses. Including derivatives, weighted average realized price for the first quarter was down 2% from $3.24 per Mcfe in 2022 to $3.18 per Mcfe in 2023 primarily due to lower commodity prices including a 31% decrease in NYMEX Henry Hub and a 19% decrease in WTI.

Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). However, management believes certain non-GAAP performance measures may provide financial statement users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results, the results of the Company’s peers and of prior periods.

One such non-GAAP financial measure is net cash flow. Management presents this measure because (i) it is accepted as an indicator of an oil and gas exploration and production company’s ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt, (ii) changes in operating assets and liabilities relate to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements which the Company may not control and (iii) changes in operating assets and liabilities may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred.

Additional non-GAAP financial measures the Company may present from time to time are free cash flow, net debt, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA and net debt to adjusted EBITDA, all of which exclude certain charges or amounts. Management presents these measures because (i) they are consistent with the manner in which the Company’s position and performance are measured relative to the position and performance of its peers, (ii) these measures are more comparable to earnings estimates provided by securities analysts, and (iii) charges or amounts excluded cannot be reasonably estimated and guidance provided by the Company excludes information regarding these types of items. These adjusted amounts are not a measure of financial performance under GAAP.
