Range Announces Closing of Bradford County Asset Sale
(firmenpresse) - FORT WORTH, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 03/28/16 -- (NYSE: RRC) today announced that it has completed the sale of its Bradford County non-operated assets. After purchase price adjustments based upon a January 1st effective date, Range received approximately $110 million of sales proceeds at the closing plus retaining the net cash flow since the effective date. In early February, Range signed a purchase and sale agreement covering its non-operating Marcellus interest in Bradford County, Pennsylvania for approximately $112 million. Range sold an average working interest of 23% covering approximately 10,900 net acres with net production of approximately 22 Mmcf per day.
Range will include the Bradford County operations in its operations until the closing date in its first quarter reported operations. The net proceeds were used to reduce debt and other corporate purposes. This monetization further strengthens the Company''s financial position by reducing leverage and enhancing liquidity. After the sale, the borrowing base under Range''s revolving credit facility remains unchanged at $3 billion.
