dated August 3, 2004
Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 3, 2004, St. Mary Land & Exploration Company issued a
press release which announced its results of operations for the quarterly period
ended June 30, 2004. The press release is furnished as part of this report as
Exhibit 99.1. As indicated in the press release, the Company has scheduled a
related second quarter 2004 earnings teleconference call for August 5, 2004, at
8:00 a.m. (MDT). The teleconference call is publicly accessible, and the press
release includes instructions as to when and how to access the teleconference
and the location on the Company's web site where the teleconference information
will be available.
The press release contains information about the Company's
discretionary cash flow, which is a "non-GAAP financial measure" under SEC
rules. The press release also presents information about the Company's net cash
provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure, and contains a reconciliation of discretionary cash flow to
net cash provided by operating activities for the periods presented, a
presentation of other cash flow information under GAAP, and a statement
indicating why management believes that the presentation of discretionary cash
flow provides useful information to investors.
In accordance with General Instruction B.6. of Form 8-K, the
information in this report furnished pursuant to Item 12, including Exhibit
99.1, shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the
liability of that section, and such information and Exhibit shall not be deemed
to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933
or the Exchange Act, except if expressly set forth by specific statement or
reference in such a filing.
