Good day, everyone and welcome to the Halcón Resources Second Quarter 2018 Earnings Call. Today's conference is being recorded. At this time, I would like to turn the conference over to Mark Mize. Please go ahead, sir. Mark J. Mize - Halcón Resources Corp.: Good morning. This conference call contains forward-looking statements. For a detailed description of our disclaimers, see our earnings release issued yesterday, posted on our website. We've also updated our investor presentation for second quarter activity and other operational items, and you can access that presentation on our website. I'll make a few comments about our financial performance for the second quarter, and then I'll turn the call over to Jon Wright who'll talk about operations, and then Floyd will take the call to discuss guidance and strategy. Production for the second quarter averaged 12,769 barrels of oil equivalent per day comprised of 68% oil. This production rate was approximately 500 Boe a day; less than we had projected due to some unexpected downtime that was caused by power interruptions as well as some weather-related issues. Our realized second quarter oil differential of 90% of NYMEX was less than the 99% differential seen in the first quarter, which was really just driven by weaker Midland pricing. Our second quarter natural gas differential came in at 52% of NYMEX which was lower than the first quarter of 2018 and that was driven by a weaker WAHA pricing. Our NGL differential for the second quarter 39%, was more or less in line with the first quarter which was at 41%. Our LOE and workover expense was $7.3 million for the quarter or $6.25 per Boe versus $6.36 per Boe in the first quarter and our second quarter LOE and workover rate per Boe would have been right at about $6 per Boe, if we would've experienced the unexpected downtime. We expect this rate to continue to trend down in the second quarter or the second half of 2018 as we continue to gain scale and ramp production. Gathering and other expense as adjusted in the press release totaled $5.5 million for the quarter or $4.73 compared to $5.55 in the first quarter. This metric also was impacted by the unexpected downtime. G&A expense as adjusted totaled $10.1 million for the quarter or $8.68 per Boe versus $11.35 per Boe in the first quarter. This per Boe rate will continue to come down over the remainder of 2018, again, as we gained scale without any significant G&A additions is expected. With respect to the current quarter capital spending we incurred right at $132 million in D&C, $29 million infrastructure, seismic and other, and $214 million on acquisitions. The majority of that was the West Quito Draw acreage. As far as hedging, we did realize the net gain on settled derivative contracts of approximately $26 million during the second quarter. We're well-hedged on WTI for the rest of 2018 and 2019. We have 11,500 barrels a day of oil hedged at an average price of $53.03 per barrel for the last six months of 2018 and we have 15,504 barrels per day of oil hedged in 2019 at an average price of $56.27. We also had 8,000 barrels a day of MidCush basis swaps in place for the remainder of 2018 at an average price of $11.69. We have 12,000 a day of MidCush swaps in place for the first half of 2019 at $3.02 and we have 4,000 barrels a day in place for the second half of 2019 at $3.95. Regarding gas hedges, we have 7,500 MMBtu of gas hedged for the last six months of 2018 at an average price of $3.16. We have 20,000 MMBtu a day of gas hedged in 2019 at an average price of $2.80. We also have 15,000 MMBtu a day of WAHA basis hedges in place for the second half of 2018 at $1.10 and 25,500 MMBtu a day of WAHA basis hedges in placed for 2019 at a $1.18. As of June 30th, the end of the quarter, we had $294 million of liquidity that did consist of $96 million of cash on the balance sheet plus a fully undrawn revolver. And with that, I'll turn the call over to Jon. Jon C. Wright - Halcón Resources Corp.: Thanks, Mark. As Mark indicated, we had quite a bit of unexpected downtime in the second quarter driven by power interruptions and bad weather. Although, we can't control the weather, we do have the ability to improve the power situation. We have worked with our local utility provider to have a new substation constructed within our acreage position, which will improve power liability. We've recently connected roughly half of the Hackberry Draw field to the substation via our new feeder line. And we anticipate that we will have the remaining wells connected within next few weeks on our second feeder line. Additionally, we will continue to build up our HFS-owned power transmission infrastructure throughout the field to ensure that all of our well sites are connected to the grid, making us less reliant on generators for power. In Monument Draw, we continue to be very happy with our drilling results. The Sealy Ranch 6401H began cutting on late June and has exhibited very strong results with the current 20-day average of 1885 Boe per day at 86% oil, which continues to improve. This well may reach a 30-day peak IP rate of around 2,000 barrels equivalent per day making it our best well drilled to-date in the Delaware. The 6401H is located in the central portion of our Monument Draw acreage position. We recently began flowing back to the Sealy Ranch 7701H and the 7702H in Monument Draw. As of this morning, these wells are producing over 1,600 and 1,400 barrels equivalent per day respectively, and the rates continue to increase. One note on this is that these are not peak rates. We expect that peak rates will be in line with other recently reported rates in Monument Draw. These two wells were completed under the lower and upper Wolfcamp intervals at spacing of 330 feet apart horizontally and 250 feet apart vertically wine rack positioning. We ran micro-seismic on this project and we had confirmed that the frac was contained within each interval with little to no interference. These wells confirm our spacing assumptions of up to 13 upper and lower Wolfcamp wells for 1,280-acre drilling spacing unit in Monument Draw. There's a great illustration of this work on slide 8 of our investor deck. Now, with six additional wells flowing back now are being put on line over the next few months, we will have de-risked most of Monument Draw for the Wolfcamp by year-end as shown on slide 7. We also have improved our drilling performance in Monument Draw recently by not applying our drilling fluid program and implementing new bid designs in the intermediate section, which has resulted in reduced drilling days. I will also note that we had eight locations in Monument Draw with intermediate casing preset. We will have a great head start once we move back into this area in 2019. This is about a $14 million impact to CapEx. We expect to continue to improve our drilling performance here and in our other areas. We put three Wolfcamp wells on line in Hackberry Draw in the second quarter of 2018. The most recent of these wells, the Bobby 1H is outperforming our type curve. The other two wells were drilled further south in our acreage position. And while they're performing slightly well below type curve estimates, they're still economic. We expect to put five additional wells on line here for the remainder of 2018 and all these wells are focused on areas that we expect to meet or exceed type curve expectations. In West Quito, we recently began our drilling program with few rigs on a two-well pad and a three-well pad. These five wells are all 10,000 foot Wolfcamp laterals. The first pad should be on line in Q4 when we anticipate the second pad will be on line around the year-end 2018. These two pads are illustrated on slide 9 of our Investor deck. Our drilling performance thus far has been on track with total drilling days looking to be around 30 days. Certainly, we will have adjusted – currently, we have adjusted our D&C costs in West Quito downward to around $10.6 million versus $11.5 million as previously reported. We're excited about this area and look forward to talking about well results here later in 2018. With that, I'll turn the call over to Floyd. Floyd C. Wilson - Halcón Resources Corp.: Thanks, Jon. Jon and his staff are doing a wonderful job of building a world-class asset out here based on technology and cutting-edge practices. We don't hire the low cost providers. We hire the best providers in any area that we work in. As to rigs and growth, as reported, we drop the rig while that bringing our recount to three rigs for the rest of the year, and for at least the first part of next year. This moderation in cadence is driven by the basis blowout with that differential standing above $15 a barrel today. Not exactly the right time to press for higher and higher production. I'd like to see realized net prices back over $60 a barrel before adding the rig back in. Time will tell on that. Having said that we've dropped a rig and lowered production, we're still guiding to a 33% production growth rate Q4 over Q3 of 2018. And that becomes more than a 300% production increase year-over-year 2017 to 2018. These are very strong wells that we're drilling out here. We're lending one dedicated frac crew today and we'll bring in the spot crew as needed. As I mentioned, we continue to use only the best contractors, the best service providers and the high-end of all equipment as we build our 60,000 acre 2,000-location position in the Delaware into a durable profitable type asset base. We have lowered production guidance due to our rig count reduction, but as I mentioned, we'll deliver strong growth in spite of that. We hope to add a rig in 2019. Again, as I mentioned, and that is dependent on crude netback pricing. If we do that, that'll allow us to continue growth to about 32,000 barrels a day average for next year; again, a very strong data point. On that, based on logjam, we've announced and executed comprehensive takeaway agreement with Salt Creek Midstream, a great partner for us in the Delaware Basin. Our agreements with them lead to a 25,000 barrel of oil per day firm capacity on new construction, taking our oil to the Gulf Coast at some point in 2019. This will lead to better than WTI net prices after transport. On cost, inflation seems to have moderated a bit. It's hard to pick a day at a point in time and say it's done, but it has definitely slowed down maybe even flattened. Drilling and completion CapEx is now approximately $400 million for 2018, down about $35 million from before we dropped a rig. Infrastructure and seismic spending will be about $20 million, a bit more higher than before at approximately $100 million. This is driven primarily due to additional costs related to building out a high-spec gathering and treating system at Monument Draw where we are seeing elevated levels of H2S. Halc (00:12:44) Field Services is – remains a large focus of ours. It's a very vibrant and valuable asset. The additional build-out – as part of this additional build out to deal with the issues at Monument Draw is part of Halc (00:13:03) Field Services and will provide an even more highly valuable asset encompassed within our subsidiary. We reported the launch of a process to sell this half of this awesome asset, Halc (00:13:19) Field Services. We've received a very high level of interest from both strategic and financial parties. I expect to have nearly 40 CAs executed soon as we go down the path that we have gone down before successfully. We expect the marketing process to be completed within a month or month and a half and a closing within a month or month and a half after that. We're open to both, the partial sale or an outright sale of this valuable asset. Any proceeds from this divestiture will enhance our liquidity as we move towards cashless efficiency. We have several additional liquidity and leverage-enhancing projects under consideration at this time. We are not pursuing any significant acquisition ideas today. And as far as strategy, it's really pretty simple. Great rock, great execution will lead to a great end result for all of our investors. Operator, we're ready for questions, if there are any.
