Exhibit 99.2
STONE ENERGY CORPORATION
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements of Stone Energy Corporation (“Stone”) are presented to illustrate the effects of the sale of substantially all of Stone’s Rocky Mountain properties on its historical financial position and operating results. The sale was completed on June 29, 2007. The cash proceeds received from the sale totaled approximately $577.9 million, representing gross proceeds of $575 million adjusted upward by $2.9 million for preliminary purchase price adjustments for operations related to the properties after February 1, 2007, the effective date of the transaction. Estimated transaction costs associated with the sale are approximately $6.0 million. The divested properties include Stone’s interests in the Pinedale Anticline, the Jonah field, the Williston Basin, the Scott field and several smaller producing areas. The sale also included net undeveloped acreage of approximately 550,000 acres.
Stone used a portion of the proceeds to fully pay down the balance outstanding under its bank credit facility and accrued interest as of the June 29, 2007 closing date and intends to send out a notice of redemption for its $225 million Senior Floating Rate Notes.
The historical financial information of Stone has been derived from the historical audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements of Stone included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet was prepared as if the sale and related debt reduction payments occurred as of March 31, 2007. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations were prepared as if the sale and related debt reduction payments occurred as of January 1, 2006. All proforma presentations also assume the discontinuation of the operations of the Denver District office and the resulting reduction in related salaries and general and administrative expenses.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what Stone’s results of operations or financial position would have been had the transaction occurred on the above mentioned dates, nor is it indicative of Stone’s future operating results or financial position. The pro forma adjustments reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information are based on available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable.
