Please see the reconciliation of GAAP net loss to adjusted EBITDA in the financial tables of this release for further information.
Matthew A. Jones, President of Atlas Resource Partners, added, “Since the closing of our acquisition of Titan in late July 2012, we have been able to commence our drilling plan for the Barnett Shale in order to drive substantial growth in production and cash flow from that region. We are also excited as we begin drilling in our new and high-returning development areas, particularly the Mississippi Lime in northwestern Oklahoma, the Utica Shale in eastern Ohio and the Marcellus Shale in northeastern Pennsylvania.”
