CPS beat, strong reserve additions

Cash earnings per share of $1.34 (-2% YoY) came in 5% ahead of consensus. Adjusted EPS of $0.32 were significantly ahead of consensus at $0.04, largely thanks to a $0.17/share benefit from low depreciation charges. Output of 380kboed was at the bottom of the guided range, due to Texas winter storms. FY18 volume guidance brackets consensus, when adjusted for disposals. FY17 reserves replacement, at 627%, benefitted from Leviathan bookings.
