Talisman Energy Inc.
TALISMAN ENERGY GENERATES $4.75 BILLION IN CASH FLOW IN 2006
486,000 BOE/D FOURTH QUARTER PRODUCTION
116% PROVED RESERVES REPLACEMENT
Talisman Energy Inc. released its 2006 consolidated financial and operating
results today. The Company expects to file its Annual Information Form,
Management's Discussion and Analysis and audited financial statements on March
13, 2007.
Cash flow(1) increased 2% to a record $4,748 million ($4.35/share), compared to
$4,672 million ($4.23/share) a year ago. The Company generated $1,126 million
($1.04/share) in cash flow during the fourth quarter, down from $1,468 million
($1.34/share) a year earlier primarily due to lower natural gas prices in North
America.
Net income was a record $2,005 million ($1.84/share), an increase of 28% over
the $1,561 million ($1.41/share) reported in 2005. Net income during the fourth
quarter was $598 million ($0.55/share), an increase of 12% versus $533 million
($0.48/share) a year ago.
Earnings from continuing operations(1) were $1,583 million ($1.45/share),
compared to $1,853 million ($1.68/share) in 2005. During the fourth quarter of
2006, Talisman generated $332 million ($0.31/share) in earnings from continuing
operations, versus $552 million ($0.50/share) for the comparable period a year
earlier.
Talisman increased production per share by 4.4%. Production averaged 485,000
boe/d up from 470,000 boe/d in 2005. Oil and liquids production was up 5% to
261,634 bbls/d. The increase came predominantly from Southeast Asia (up 16,106
bbls/d). Talisman increased its natural gas production by 2% to 1,342 mmcf/d.
Production in the fourth quarter averaged 486,000 boe/d, a decrease of 6% over
the same period in 2005. This is after asset sales, which had an impact of
12,200 boe/d during the quarter. Talisman's North American gas production
averaged 942 mmcf/d during the quarter, an increase of 4% over the previous year
despite the loss of 23 mmcf/d due to asset sales.
"Financially it was a good year for Talisman with record cash flow and earnings.
We continued to progress our major development projects in the North Sea and
Southeast Asia. Talisman delivered respectable reserves growth through drilling
and revisions and made strong progress on asset sales and share repurchases in
2006, but our results were also affected by rising costs, lower North American
natural gas prices and some operational issues," said Dr. Jim Buckee, President
and Chief Executive Officer.
(1) The terms "cash flow" and "earnings from continuing operations" are non-GAAP
measures. Please see advisories elsewhere in this news release.
"Production was a record 485,000 boe/d, although we came in lower than the
initial guidance provided in December 2005. There were a number of contributing
factors, including adverse weather conditions, which led to extended turnaround
times and delayed tie-ins, as well as several compressor failures and
significant increases in procurement lead times. However, I believe we are
steadily overcoming our production issues, with production in the fourth quarter
coming in close to expectations and 5.5 % higher than the third quarter.
"We still expect production in 2007 of 485,000 boe/d with a confidence range of
plus or minus 5%. With share repurchases, we expect to be within our 5 to 10%
production per share target growth range this year. This includes the impact of
asset sales already closed plus announced sales, the combined impact of which
should total about 57,000 boe/d once all sales are completed. Production is
expected to average approximately 465,000 boe/d in the first quarter with an
expected exit rate for the year of approximately 530,000 boe/d, driven largely
by increasing volumes from our Tweedsmuir oil development. Beyond this, we
expect significant growth in both 2008 and 2009 as further projects, currently
being progressed, come onstream.
"We added 203 mmboe of proved reserves in 2006 at a cost of $3.7 billion,
including net acquisitions and divestitures (A&D), but excluding spending on
midstream and oil sands. Excluding A&D, proved reserve additions were about the
same, at 202 mmboe with capital spending of approximately $4.4 billion. Overall,
excluding A&D activities, we replaced 116% of production, 142% of North American
natural gas production and 123% of international liquids production. These are
high quality oil (no bitumen) and conventional gas reserves and only 15% of our
North American reserves are proved undeveloped.
"In North America, we drilled 496 successful natural gas wells last year. Our
fourth quarter natural gas production was up 4% year-over-year and, without
asset sales, production would have been up by 6%. The Company drilled some
prolific wells in the Foothills and Appalachia regions. We set new production
records in the Alberta Foothills and in Bigstone/Wild River. We are building an
exciting new gas area along the Outer Foothills, having acquired over 260,000
acres in an area where we see 1 to 2 Tcf of unrisked contingent and prospective
resources. We also completed the Lynx and Palliser pipelines with Talisman
Midstream Operations recently transporting a record 600 mmcf/d.
"The focus again in 2007 will be deeper, prolific natural gas targets. Although
we don't expect any growth in our North American gas volumes this year, it is
due to non-core asset sales in 2006 and 2007. However, with continued drilling
success, we expect to grow our North American gas volumes by approximately 5% in
2008.
"In Alaska, we spudded two wells in February and hope to finish drilling a third
before the winter drilling season is over. We acquired additional acreage during
the year and now hold the rights to approximately one million net acres.
"In the North Sea, the main story continues to be the progress we are making on
our 11 development projects, which are expected to contribute sizeable
production volumes over the next 36 months. In total, we expect Talisman's North
Sea volumes to grow to 230,000-240,000 boe/d in 2009.
"The Tweedsmuir development was 90% complete at year end. First production is
expected in late April with full volumes planned for this September once topside
modifications to the Piper platform are completed. Peak production is expected
at 56,000 boe/d, with Talisman's share forecast to average approximately 45,000
boe/d in 2008.
"Other UK projects include Duart, Enoch, Wood, Blane, Affleck and the Galley
field tie-back to our Tartan platform. We are also integrating the recently
acquired Auk and Fulmar fields. Auk has over 800 mmbbls of original oil in place
and a recovery factor to date of only 18%. In Norway, work is proceeding on the
sanctioned Rev and Yme developments.
"In Indonesia, the gas plant expansion at Corridor is being commissioned in
preparation for first sales to West Java, which are expected to start by
mid-year. We also plan to shoot 3-D seismic on the deep water Pasangkayu Block
in preparation for drilling in late 2008 or 2009.
"In Malaysia/Vietnam, the Bunga Tulip development came onstream in the fourth
quarter at approximately 4,000 boe/d. We are progressing the Northern Fields
development with first liquids production expected in the third quarter of 2008
and ramping up to 40,000 bbls/d by year end (Talisman share 41.44%). The Song
Doc development in Vietnam Block 46/02 was sanctioned in 2006 with first
production expected in mid-2008 at 13,500 bbls/d gross (Talisman share 30%).
"In November 2006, we spudded our first exploration well in Block 15-2/01
offshore Vietnam. The discovery well flowed at 14,863 bbls/d and we are
currently testing a sidetrack into the adjacent TGT discovery, which spills onto
our block. We plan to drill up to three additional exploration wells on the
block this year. This has the potential to be a new core producing area for
Talisman.
"In Algeria, we are continuing with the Phase 2 expansion of the Greater MLN gas
reinjection project. We acquired rights to the prospective El Hamra Block in
Tunisia. We drilled two successful offshore exploration wells in Trinidad and
Tobago with plans to drill up to seven exploration and development wells in
2007.
"With these ongoing development projects, we expect production in 2009 to be
20-30% above projected 2007 levels. In addition, there is significant upside
reserves potential from our high impact exploration program. Our international
exploration portfolio, including Alaska and the Northwest Territories, contains
approximately 350 prospects and leads with exposure to 5 billion boe of
prospective resources, on an unrisked P50 basis, net to Talisman.
"We continue to act to increase shareholder value while maintaining a prudent
balance sheet. Last year we increased the dividend by 32%. We split Talisman
shares on a three-for-one basis to enhance liquidity. We delivered on our
promise to sell a significant amount of non-core assets and repurchase shares.
We have bought back almost $1 billion worth of stock in the past 12 months, and
depending on the timing of sales proceeds and capital spending requirements,
plan additional repurchases in 2007."
Eight Consecutive Years of Record Cash Flow

(1) non-GAAP measure
Cash flow in 2006 was a record $4,748 million on gross sales of $10,030 million.
Cash flow per share increased 2.8% to $4.35. Significant increases came from
higher oil prices ($1,043 million), increased volumes ($479 million) and hedging
gains ($143 million). These gains were offset by lower natural gas prices ($369
million) and the impact of a stronger Canadian dollar on realized prices ($679
million), increased operating costs ($313 million) and lost production due to
asset sales ($124 million).
Net income for the year totaled $2,005 million, $444 million higher than last
year. Significant changes in non-cash items included increased future tax ($421
million), higher depreciation, depletion and amortization ($316 million) and
lower stock based compensation ($589 million) expense. Net income for the year
included an after tax gain on asset sales of $432 million.
Fourth quarter cash flow fell 23%, largely due to a 21% drop in netbacks with
North American natural gas netbacks down 44% compared to the fourth quarter of
2005. Net income for the quarter included an after tax gain on asset sales of
$285 million.
The Company no longer calculates a diluted cash flow per share amount. Since the
introduction in mid-2003 of a cash payment feature attached to the outstanding
stock options, approximately 97% of options have been exercised using the cash
payment feature. Since the diluted per share calculation assumes all options
will be exercised for shares, with no adjustment to account for the fact that
actual options exercised for cash have resulted in a reduction of cash flow,
management feels that the diluted cash flow per share figure is not relevant as
the underlying assumptions are not a realistic view of actual or expected
results.
Talisman uses the successful efforts accounting method. The differences between
the full cost and successful efforts methods of accounting make it difficult to
compare net income between companies. In periods of growth and high exploration
spending, it is likely that net income determined using the full cost method
would be higher than net income determined using the more conservative
successful efforts method.
Cash Flow
Below is a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities calculated in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to cash flow
(which is a non-GAAP measure of financial performance). Please refer to the

Earnings from Continuing Operations $1.6 Billion
In order to better illustrate Talisman's operating performance on an internally
consistent basis, the Company has calculated an earnings from continuing
operations number. This is a non-GAAP measure. This metric adjusts for
significant one-time events, as well as other non-operational impacts on
earnings such as the mark-to-market effect of changes in share prices on stock
based compensation expense and changes to tax rates. This calculation does not
reflect differing accounting policies and conventions between companies.

Production for the year averaged 485,000 boe/d, an increase of 3% over 2005 and
Talisman increased production per share by 4.4%. During 2006, the Company
announced the sale of non-core assets with total production volumes of
approximately 57,000 boe/d net to Talisman. The estimated impact of asset sales
on Talisman's reported production volumes was approximately 4,880 boe/d for the
year and 12,200 boe/d in the fourth quarter.
Talisman increased its oil and liquids production by 5% over the prior year.
North American liquids production decreased, reflecting the Company's ongoing
focus on natural gas in North America, declines from existing fields as well as
asset sales. Total North Sea volumes increased reflecting the impact of acquired
assets in Scandinavia late in 2005. UK volumes fell, largely due to extended
platform turnarounds. Liquids production in Southeast Asia increased with a full
year of production from the South Angsi field, first production from the start
up of the Naga Kecil well in Block PM-314, startup of the Bunga Tulip field in
the fourth quarter and assets acquired in late 2005.
Natural gas volumes increased by 2%. North American volumes were down slightly
year over year largely reflecting asset sales. Talisman's North Sea gas volumes
are largely demand driven (relatively little gas storage in the UK). Increased
sales in Indonesia to Singapore Power and Caltex more than offset lower volumes
in Malaysia/Vietnam due to an extended maintenance shutdown caused by bad
weather and lower natural gas nominations.
Fourth quarter volumes were 486,000 boe/d, a decrease of 6% over the comparable
period a year earlier. Fourth quarter liquid volumes fell reflecting asset sales
in North America and the UK and an extended shutdown in Trinidad, due to
equipment failure, which is now repaired.
Talisman's fourth quarter gas volumes were up largely on the strength of a 4%
increase in North America, despite the loss of approximately 23 mmcf/d in the
quarter due to asset sales. Positive drilling results and the startup of the
Talisman operated Lynx and Palliser Pipelines were the main contributors. UK
fourth quarter natural gas sales were down from the prior year due primarily to
asset sales.
On December 12, 2006, the Company issued guidance for expected 2007 production
volumes. Talisman expects production to average 485,000 boe/d in 2007 with a
confidence level of plus or minus 5%. This includes the impact of the 57,000
boe/d of asset sales announced to date (the Brae asset sale is expected to close
late in 2007).
116% Production Replacement
Talisman replaced 116% of production through drilling additions and revisions to
proved reserves in 2006. Talisman increased its total proved reserves by 2% to
1.67 billion boe. Net of royalties, the Company had 1.37 billion boe of proved
reserves (up 4%).
At year-end, Talisman had 5.4 tcf of proved natural gas reserves and 767 mmbbls
of proved oil and liquids reserves.
The Company added a record 471 bcf of proved natural gas reserves in North
America, replacing 142% of production through drilling and revisions.
Internationally, Talisman replaced 123% of liquids production organically.

At year-end, Talisman had a reserves life index of 9.5 years for proved reserves
and 15.2 years for proved and probable reserves.
Talisman's proved reserves are comprised of approximately 46% of high quality
oil and liquids and 54% natural gas. Approximately 38% of the Company's total
proved reserves are in North America with the North Sea accounting for 29% and
Southeast Asia for 27%. At year-end, the Company had 986 mmboe of probable
reserves, which comprise a large part of Talisman's development inventory.
Exploration and development spending during 2006 totaled $4.4 billion, excluding
Syncrude and Midstream expenditures. Net of acquisitions and divestitures,
capital spending was $3.7 billion.
Talisman has an internal qualified reserves engineer who evaluates all of the
Company's reserves estimates. In addition, approximately 86% of Talisman's
proved reserves have been reviewed by outside engineering firms over the past
four years.
The reserves replacement ratio of 116% (before acquisitions) was calculated by
dividing the sum of changes (revisions of estimates, improved recovery and
discoveries) to estimated proved oil and gas reserves during 2006 by the
Company's 2006 conventional production. Detailed reserves reconciliation tables
are provided elsewhere in this news release.

1. Netbacks do not include synthetic oil and pipeline operations. Additional netback
information by major product type and region is contained elsewhere in this news
release.
Talisman's realized oil and gas equivalent netback decreased by 0.5% to average
$36.98/boe in 2006.
Sales prices averaged $57.45/boe, an increase of 1%, reflecting an increase in
world oil prices and Talisman's international natural gas prices, offset largely
by the drop in North American natural gas prices. Although most oil and natural
gas sales are priced off US dollar denominated benchmarks, Talisman reports its
netbacks in Canadian dollars. The Canadian dollar strengthened 6% against its US
counterpart in 2006. This had an adverse effect on Talisman's reported netbacks.
Royalty rates were unchanged at 17% in 2006.
Unit operating costs averaged $9.98/boe, an increase of 19% over the previous
year. The increase is due to a change in Talisman's production mix as well as
increased spending on maintenance, extended turnarounds and higher power costs.
Talisman reported a small hedging gain, although the Company remained relatively
unhedged throughout the year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Talisman's long-term debt at year end was $4.6 billion ($4.5 billion net of
cash), up from $4.3 billion at the end of last year. During 2006, the Company
generated $4.4 billion of cash provided by operating activities and spent $4.6
billion on exploration and development (including midstream and Syncrude) and
received proceeds from net asset sales of $668 million. The Company repurchased
approximately 35 million common shares during 2006 and an additional 15.5
million shares subsequent to year end at a total cost of $958 million. In March
2006, the Company renewed its Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB) to permit the
purchase of up to 54,940,200 common shares, representing 5% of the total common
shares outstanding at that time. In December 2006, Talisman amended the current
NCIB to the maximum permitted by the TSX, being 10% of the public float on March
22, 2006 (109,767,000 common shares). The NCIB expires in March 2007 and the
Company has received Board of Directors' approval to renew the NCIB for another
year.
Two common share dividends were paid in 2006 for a total of $163 million (an
aggregate of $0.15/share). The Company's dividend is determined semi-annually by
the Board of Directors. At year-end, there were 1,064 million common shares
outstanding, down from 1,099 million at December 31, 2005.
At the end of 2006, Talisman's trailing debt to cash flow ratio was 0.96 and
debt-to-debt plus equity was 38%.

During 2006, the Company spent $3 billion on development and $1.5 billion on
exploration.
Natural gas continued to be the focus of the Company's capital investment
activities in North America, supplemented by low risk oil projects. Of the $2.4
billion of capital spending in North America, $1.1 billion related to
exploration activities and development accounted for $1.3 billion. The Company's
North America drilling program had a 98% success rate, drilling 496 successful
gas wells and 194 oil wells. Exploration and development spending was
concentrated in the predominantly gas producing core areas in the Alberta
Foothills, Greater Arch, Deep Basin, Monkman/BC Foothills, Edson and Appalachia
regions.
Total capital spending in the UK was $1.2 billion, including $138 million for
exploration and $1.1 billion for development. Major areas of activity included
the ongoing development of the Tweedsmuir, Blane, Wood, Enoch and Affleck
projects and drilling and recompletion activity Orion, Tartan and Claymore
fields. A total of 24 successful development wells were drilled in 2006, in
addition to six exploration wells.
In Scandinavia, total expenditures were $332 million and included $102 million
on exploration and $230 million on development. In addition to project
development costs at Rev of $27 million, five successful development wells were
drilled during 2006, in addition to two exploration wells.
Malaysia/Vietnam accounted for $241 million of the $331 million of total capital
spending in Southeast Asia with the ongoing development of the Northern Fields
in PM-3 CAA. Talisman participated in nine successful development wells in
Malaysia/Vietnam during 2006 and one successful exploration well. A total of $76
million was spent in Indonesia, primarily on the Suban Phase 2 development to
supply natural gas to West Java in 2007. A total of 19 successful development
wells and two successful exploration wells were drilled in Indonesia.
Capital spending in Other included $74 million in North Africa with Talisman
participating in 13 successful exploration and development wells in Algeria and
two wells in Tunisia. In Trinidad and Tobago, a total of $84 million was spent,
primarily on Block 2c development drilling and the Eastern Block onshore
exploration activity. A total of four development wells and four exploration
wells were drilled in Trinidad and Tobago. During 2006, the Company spent $91
million in the rest of the world, including $22 million in Qatar on exploration
drilling.

The Company's 2006 DD&A expense increased $316 million, or 19%, to $2 billion,
with a per unit rate of $12.26/boe ($10.81/boe in 2005) due primarily to
recently acquired assets and high levels of capital spending. DD&A rates in
North America increased to $14.18/boe, primarily due to higher drilling costs,
increased capital expenditures on infrastructure projects as well as increased
land amortization costs. In North America, total DD&A expense increased 13% to
$1,024 million. In the UK, total expense increased 11% to $440 million, as DD&A
rates increased 14% to $12.60/boe, but were partially offset by a 3% reduction
in boe production.
In Scandinavia, total expense increased by $91 million to $248 million, as DD&A
rates increased 19% to $19.78/boe, combined with a 28% increase in boe
production. Total DD&A expense for Southeast Asia increased by $80 million, or
56%, to $224 million due to the impact of a 28% increase in the rate to
$6.17/boe and a 21% increase in boe production. Total Other DD&A expense
decreased by 17% to $69 million, primarily as a result of a decrease in
production, as the rate decreased 2% to $9.17/boe.

During 2006, the Company incurred dry hole expense of $296 million, $55 million
higher than last year. In North America, dry hole expense was $135 million. In
the UK, a total of three wells were expensed for a total of $26 million. The
Company also wrote off one well in Scandinavia, two wells in Southeast Asia and
seven wells in the rest of the world.

Exploration expense consists of geological and geophysical costs, seismic, land
lease rentals and indirect exploration expenses. These costs are expensed as
incurred under the successful efforts method of accounting. The majority of the
$43 million increase to $318 million relates to increased exploration activity
in North America and other potential growth areas.

General and administrative (G&A) expense increased due to additional personnel,
salary increases and higher administrative costs. On a unit basis, G&A was
$1.31/boe (2005 - $1.17/boe; 2004 - $1.14/boe). The sum of interest on long-term
debt and capitalized interest was $238 million during 2006, up from $182 million
in 2005 on higher debt levels in the current year. Interest capitalized in 2006
is primarily associated with the Tweedsmuir development project in the UK, which
is scheduled to come on production early in the second quarter of 2007. In
addition, interest costs of $18 million in 2006, $3 million in 2005 and nil in
2004, have been allocated to discontinued operations.
Other revenue includes pipeline and custom treating revenues of $103 million for
2006, compared to $88 million for 2005. Other expense during 2006 included the
gain on sale of a royalty interest in an undeveloped lease of $108 million,
partially offset by foreign exchange losses of $24 million and costs related to
the Beatrice Wind Farm of $22 million.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense relates to the appreciated value of the
Company's outstanding stock options and cash units at December 31, 2006. The
Company's stock-based compensation expense is based on the difference between
the Company's share price and its stock options, or cash units exercise price. A
total of $51 million was expensed in 2006. The Company paid cash of $159 million
($153 million in 2005) to employees in settlement of fully accrued option
liabilities for options exercised. Comparatively, during 2005 the 90% increase
in the Company's share price resulted in an expense of $633 million. Over the
course of 2006, the average exercise price of all outstanding options increased
from $8.71 per share to $10.79 per share, with a total of 63.9 million options
outstanding at December 31, 2006.
The Company's stock option plans provide employees and directors who hold stock
options with the choice upon exercise to purchase a share of the Company at the
stated exercise price or to receive a cash payment in exchange for surrendering
the option. The cash payment is equal to the appreciated value of the stock
option as determined based on the difference between the option's exercise price
and the approximate share price at the time of surrender. The cash payment
alternative is expected to result in reduced shareholder dilution in the future
as it is anticipated that most holders of the stock options (now and in the
future) will elect to take a cash payment. Such cash payments made by the
Company to stock option holders are deductible by the Company for income tax
purposes, making these plans more cost-effective.
Since the introduction of the cash feature, approximately 97% of options that
have been exercised have been exercised for cash, resulting in reduced dilution
of shares.
Additional stock-based compensation expense or recoveries in future periods is
dependent on the movement of the Company's share price and the number of
outstanding options and cash units.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate for 2006, after deducting Petroleum Revenue Tax
(PRT), was 47%, compared to 45% in 2005. A number of events in the past two
years have affected the Company's effective tax rates, including tax rate
increases in the UK, tax rate reductions in Canada and acquisitions of producing
assets in Norway in 2005.

In 2006, future tax expense increased $425 million to $552 million, as the
Company recorded a $325 million charge related to the income tax rate increase
on petroleum profits from 40 to 50% in the UK, partially offset by a recovery of
future taxes of $178 million related to Canadian federal and provincial tax rate
reductions and $34 million in the UK related to the deferral of 2005 capital
expenditure claims to 2006 and 2007 for tax purposes.
A normalized effective tax rate after removing the impact of the UK and Canadian
tax rate changes and the tax on unrealized foreign exchange gains on foreign
denominated debt would have been 44% in 2006 and 43% in 2005. The increase in
the 2006 effective tax rate results, in part, from a higher tax rate in the UK.
Foreign exchange rate fluctuations over the past several years have resulted in
taxes on gains related to inter-company loans and non-C$ denominated debt, for
which there is no corresponding component of the unrealized gain reflected in
income before taxes.
Current income tax expense decreased to $752 million in 2006, due primarily to
higher capital allowances in the UK and lower US charges due to reduced natural
gas prices.
The UK government levies PRT on North Sea fields that received development
approval before April 1993, based on gross profit after allowable deductions,
including capital and operating expenditures. PRT, which is deductible for
purposes of calculating corporate income tax, increased as a result of both
higher prices and volumes on fields in the UK subject to PRT. In addition to the
UK, PRT is levied in Australia and other countries where $66 million and $16
million, respectively, were recorded during 2006.

Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements
and forward-looking information (collectively, "forward-looking statements")
within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. These forward-looking
statements include, among others, statements regarding: estimates of future
sales, future production and production per share; business plans for drilling,
exploration and development; the estimated amounts and timing of capital
expenditures; the estimated timing of development, including new production;
business strategy and plans or budgets; outlook for oil and gas prices; ongoing
asset dispositions and share re-purchases planned for 2007; royalty rates and
exchange rates; and other expectations, beliefs, plans, goals, objectives,
assumptions, information and statements about possible future events,
conditions, results of operations or performance.
Statements concerning oil and gas reserves contained in this news release may be
deemed to be forward-looking statements as they involve the implied assessment
that the reserves described can be profitably produced in the future, based on
certain estimates and assumptions.
Often, but not always, forward-looking statements use words or phrases such as:
"expects", "does not expect" or "is expected", "anticipates" or "does not
anticipate", "plans" or "planned", "estimates" or "estimated", "projects" or
"projected", "forecasts" or "forecasted", "believes", "intends", "likely",
"possible", "probable", "scheduled" , "positioned", "goal" , "objective" or
state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might"
or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved.
Various assumptions were used in drawing the conclusions or making the forecasts
and projections contained in the forward-looking statements throughout this news
release. Statements which discuss future business plans for drilling,
exploration and development assume that the extraction of crude oil, natural gas
and natural gas liquids remains economic. For the purposes of preparing this
document, Talisman assumed a US$65.00/bbl West Texas Intermediate oil price, a
US$7.50/mmbtu New York Mercantile Exchange natural gas price, a US$/Canadian$
exchange rate of $0.90 and a Canadian$/British � rate of 2.05.
Forecasted production volumes are based on the mid-point of the estimated
production range. Statements regarding estimated future production and
production growth, as well as estimated financial results that are derived from
or depend upon future production estimates (such as cash provided by operating
activities) incorporate the estimated impact of the sale of the Company's
indirect Syncrude interest which was completed on January 2, 2007, the
anticipated completion of the UK Brae asset sale and the non-core asset
disposition program in Canada. The completion of any contemplated asset
disposition is contingent on various factors including favorable market
conditions, the ability of the Company to negotiate acceptable terms of sale and
receipt of any required approvals for such dispositions. The amount of taxes and
cash payments made upon surrender of existing stock options is inherently
difficult to predict.
Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and
projections that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause
actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by Talisman and
described in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties
include:
-- the risks of the oil and gas industry, such as operational risks in
exploring for, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas, and
market demand, including unpredictable facilities outages;
-- risks and uncertainties involving geology of oil and gas deposits;
-- the uncertainty of reserves estimates, reserves life and underlying
reservoir risk ;
-- the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production,
costs and expenses;
-- potential delays (due, for example, to harsh weather conditions) or
changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or
capital expenditures;
-- fluctuations in oil and gas prices, foreign currency exchange rates and
interest rates;
-- the outcome and effects of completed acquisitions, as well as any future
acquisitions or dispositions;
-- the ability of the Company to integrate any assets it has acquired or
may acquire or the performance of those assets;
-- health, safety and environmental risks;
-- uncertainties as to the availability and cost of financing and changes
in capital markets;
-- uncertainties related to the litigation process, such as possible
discovery of new evidence or acceptance of novel legal theories and
difficulties in predicting the decisions of judges and juries;
-- risks in conducting foreign operations (for example, political and
fiscal instability or the possibility of civil unrest or military
action);
-- competitive actions of other companies, including increased competition
from other oil and gas companies or companies providing alternative
sources of energy;
-- changes in general economic and business conditions;
-- the effect of acts of, or actions against, international terrorism;
-- the possibility that government policies or laws may change or
governmental approvals may be delayed or withheld;
-- results of the Company's risk mitigation strategies, including insurance
and any hedging programs; and
-- the Company's ability to implement its business strategy.
We caution that the foregoing list of risks and uncertainties is not exhaustive.
Additional information on these and other factors which could affect the
Company's operations or financial results are included: (1) under the heading
"Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Information Form; and (2) under the
headings "Management's Discussion and Analysis - Risks and Uncertainties" and
"Outlook for 2006" and elsewhere in the Company's 2005 Annual Report Financial
Review. Additional information may also be found in the Company's other reports
on file with Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates and opinions of the
Company's management at the time the statements are made. The Company assumes no
obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances or
management's estimates or opinions change, except as required by law.
Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information
Talisman's disclosure of reserves data and other oil and gas information is made
in reliance on an exemption granted to Talisman by Canadian securities
regulatory authorities, which permits Talisman to provide disclosure in
accordance with US disclosure requirements. The information provided by Talisman
may differ from the corresponding information prepared in accordance with
Canadian disclosure standards under National Instrument 51-101 (NI 51-101).
Talisman's net proved reserves have been calculated using the standards
contained in Regulation S-X of the US Securities and Exchange Commission. US
practice is to disclose net proved reserves after deduction of estimated royalty
burdens, including net profits interests. Talisman makes additional voluntary
disclosure of gross proved reserves. Probable reserves which Talisman also
discloses voluntarily have been calculated using the definition for probable
reserves set out by the Society of Petroleum Engineers/World Petroleum Congress.
In this news release, Talisman's estimates of proved reserves and probable
reserves are based on the same price assumptions. Further information on the
differences between the US requirements and the NI 51-101 requirements is set
forth under the heading "Note Regarding Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas
Information" in Talisman's Annual Information Form.
The exemption granted to Talisman also permits it to disclose internally
evaluated reserves data. All reserves data in this news release reflects
Talisman's estimates of its reserves. While Talisman annually obtains an
independent audit of a portion of its reserves, no independent reserves
evaluator or auditor was involved in the preparation of the reserves data
disclosed in this news release.
Throughout this news release, the calculation of barrels of oil equivalent (boe)
is calculated at a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural
gas for one barrel of oil and is based on an energy equivalence conversion
method. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe
conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalence conversion
method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value
equivalence at the wellhead.
Throughout this news release, Talisman makes reference to production volumes.
Such production volumes are stated on a gross basis, which means they are stated
prior to the deduction of royalties and similar payments. In the United States,
net production volumes are reported after the deduction of these amounts.
The reserves life index of 9.5 years for proved reserves was calculated by
dividing the year end proved reserves by the Company's 2006 conventional
production. The reserves life index of 15.2 years for proved and probable
reserves was calculated by dividing the year end proved and probable reserves by
the Company's 2006 conventional production.
The Company's management uses reserves replacement ratios, as described above,
as an indicator of the Company's ability to replenish annual production volumes
and grow its reserves. It should be noted that a reserves replacement ratio is a
statistical indicator that has limitations. As an annual measure, the ratio is
limited because it typically varies widely, based on the extent and timing of
new discoveries, project sanctioning and property acquisitions. Its predictive
and comparative value is also limited for the same reasons. In addition, since
the ratio does not include the cost, value or timing of future production of new
reserves, it cannot be used as a measure of value creation.
The SEC normally permits oil and gas companies to disclose in their filings with
the SEC only proved reserves that have been demonstrated by actual production or
conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally producible under
existing economic and operating conditions. Any probable reserves, contingent
and prospective resources and the calculations with respect thereto included in
this news release do not meet the SEC's standards for inclusion in documents
filed with the SEC.
Notwithstanding that Talisman is not required to disclose contingent and
prospective resources, it has done so using the definition for contingent and
prospective resources set out by the Society of Petroleum Engineers / World
Petroleum Congress ("SPE/WPC"). There is essentially no material difference
between the SPE/WPC definitions for contingent and prospective resources and the
definitions set out in the Canadian Oil and Gas Handbook.
Contingent resources are those quantities of oil and/or gas which are estimated,
on a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations, but
which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable.
Prospective resources are those quantities of oil and/or gas which are
estimated, on a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered
accumulations. There is no certainty that prospective resources will be
discovered. Talisman's estimate for its international exploration portfolio,
including Alaska and the Northwest Territories, of 5 billion boe of prospective
resources, is calculated on the basis of the P50 estimate of such prospective
resources without reduction for the probability of exploration success or
failure.
Non-GAAP measures
This news release includes references to financial measures commonly used in the
oil and gas industry such as cash flow, cash flow per share and earnings from
operations. These terms are not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP) in either Canada or the US. Consequently, these are referred
to as non-GAAP measures. Talisman's reported results of cash flow, cash flow per
share and earnings from operations may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures by other companies.
Cash flow, as commonly used in the oil and gas industry, is captioned as funds
from operating activities on the Company's cash flow statement and represents
net income before exploration costs, DD&A, future taxes and other non-cash
expenses. Cash flow is used by the Company to assess operating results between
years and between peer companies with different accounting policies. Cash flow
should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash
provided by operating, investing and financing activities or net income as
determined in accordance with Canadian GAAP as an indicator of the Company's
performance or liquidity. Cash flow per share is cash flow divided by the
average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Earnings from continuing operations is calculated by adjusting the Company's net
income per the financial statements, for certain items of a non-operational
nature, on an after-tax basis. This term is not defined by GAAP in either Canada
or the U.S. The Company uses this information to evaluate performance of core
operational activities on a comparable basis between periods.

ABBREVIATED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited) The Consolidated Financial Statements of Talisman Energy Inc.
("Talisman" or the "Company") have been prepared by management in accordance
with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Certain information and
disclosures normally required to be included in notes to annual consolidated
financial statements have been condensed or omitted.
1. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
United Kingdom
During the second quarter of 2006, Talisman entered into agreements to dispose
of certain non-core oil and gas producing assets in the UK for proceeds of $392
million. Operating results are included in net income from discontinued
operations and the related assets and liabilities are reported as assets or
liabilities of discontinued operations on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A
gain on disposition of assets of $209 million, net of tax ($nil), has been
recorded in net income from discontinued operations.
During the fourth quarter of 2006, Talisman entered into an agreement to dispose
of additional non-core oil and gas properties for consideration of US$550
million with an effective date of January 1, 2007. Completion is expected in the
fourth quarter of 2007. The proceeds of sale will be adjusted for net cash flow
from the properties from January 1, 2007 until closing. The proceeds and gain on
sale will be impacted by the timing of closing, foreign exchange rate movements,
closing costs, interest on the sales proceeds, oil and gas prices, production
volumes together with operating results during the period to closing.
North America
During 2006, Talisman entered into agreements to dispose of certain non-core oil
and gas producing assets in Western Canada for proceeds of $361 million.
Operating results are included in net income from discontinued operations and
the related assets and liabilities are reported as assets or liabilities of
discontinued operations on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A gain on
disposition of assets of $147 million, net of tax ($61 million), has been
recorded in net income from discontinued operations.
Also during 2006, Talisman announced its intention to sell all of its oil sands
assets, comprised of a 1.25% indirect interest in Syncrude Canada and interests
in undeveloped leases. Operating results from the Syncrude Canada interest are
included in net income from discontinued operations and the related assets and
liabilities are reported as assets or liabilities of discontinued operations on
the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The sale of Talisman's indirect interest in
Syncrude Canada closed subsequent to year-end for total proceeds of $477
million, consisting of cash of $234 million, net of adjustments, and 8,189,655
units of Canadian Oil Sands Trust. The resulting gain of approximately $236
million, net of tax ($73 million), will be recorded in 2007 as part of
discontinued operations. The Company is required to hold the Canadian Oil Sands
Trust units for a minimum of four months.
During the fourth quarter of 2006, Talisman announced plans to sell additional
oil and gas producing assets in Western Canada. These assets are not included in
the results of discontinued operations as at December 31, 2006 but are expected
to be reclassified in 2007.
During 2006, the Company completed the sale of a royalty interest in an
undeveloped lease for a gain of $76 million, net of tax ($32 million), which has
been recorded in continuing operations.
Details on results of discontinued operations are presented in the tables below.
Comparative periods for both North America and UK segments have been restated.
