The information in this Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
On August 2, 2010, Comstock Resources, Inc. ("Comstock") announced financial results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010.

The earnings press release contains financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Comstock has provided reconciliations within the earnings release of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Operating cash flow is presented in the earnings release because management believes it to be useful to investors as a common alternative measure of cash flows. EBITDAX is presented in the earnings release because management believes that EBITDAX, which represents Comstock's results from operations before interest, income taxes, and certain non-cash items, including depreciation, depletion and amortization and exploration expense, is a common alternative measure of operating performance used
by certain investors and financial analysts. The non-GAAP financial measures described above should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP that are presented in the earnings release.

NEWS RELEASE
For Immediate Release
COMSTOCK RESOURCES, INC. REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER 2010 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
FRISCO, TEXAS, August 2, 2010 – Comstock Resources, Inc. ("Comstock" or the "Company") (NYSE: CRK) today reported financial and operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010.
Financial Results for the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Comstock reported a net loss of $1.6 million or 4¢ per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to a net loss of $11.5 million or 26¢ per share for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Comstock's production in the second quarter of 2010 grew 30% to 20.0 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent ("Bcfe") as compared to 15.3 Bcfe produced in the second quarter of 2009. Production in the second quarter of 2010 averaged 219 million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent ("MMcfe") per day. The increase in production is primarily attributable to Comstock's successful Haynesville shale drilling program. Production from Haynesville shale wells comprised 102 MMcfe per day (47%) of the Company's tot
al production in the second quarter of 2010, as compared to only 27 MMcfe per day (16%) during the second quarter of 2009. Oil and natural gas prices improved in the second quarter of 2010 as compared to 2009's second quarter. Comstock's average realized natural gas price increased 5% to $4.09 per Mcf for the second quarter of 2010 as compared to $3.88 per Mcf for the second quarter of 2009. The Company's average realized oil price improved by 37% to $67.37 per barrel for the second quarter of 2010 as compared to $49.24 per barrel for the second quarter of 2009.
The higher sales volumes, combined with the higher oil and natural gas prices, resulted in sales increasing by 40% to $90.7 million in the second quarter of 2010 as compared to 2009's second quarter sales of $64.9 million. Operating cash flow (before changes in working capital accounts) increased to $55.9 million in the second quarter of 2010 as compared to 2009's second quarter operating cash flow of $42.1 million. EBITDAX, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, exploration expense and other noncash expenses, was $62.9 million in 2010's second quarter as compared to 2009's second quarter EBITDAX of $42.2 million.
Comstock reported net income of $5.7 million or 12¢ per diluted share for the first six months of 2010 as compared to a net loss of $17.1 million or 38¢ per share in the first six months of 2009. The improvement in net income is mainly attributable to increased production and improved oil and natural gas prices. Comstock's production in the first half of 2010 increased 32% to 38.8 Bcfe as compared to the 29.4 Bcfe produced during the first half of 2009. Comstock averaged $4.68 per Mcf for sales of its natural gas production in the first six months of 2010, 9% higher than the $4.30 per Mcf realized during the first six months of 2009. Realized oil prices in the first six months of 2010 averaged $67.24 per barrel, 60% higher than the $41.95 per barrel in 2009's first six months.<
/font>
Oil and gas sales for the first half of 2010 increased 48% to $196.8 million from $133.2 million in the first half of 2009. Operating cash flow (before changes in working capital accounts) generated by Comstock in 2010's first six months of $127.5 million increased 47% from 2009's first six months operating cash flow of $86.8 million while EBITDAX increased 64% to $143.2 million in 2010's first six months from 2009's first six months EBITDAX of $87.5 million.
2010 Drilling Results
Comstock also reported on the results to date of its 2010 drilling program. The Company spent $244.2 million during the first six months of 2010 on its exploration and development activities. $181.8 million was spent on drilling activities and $62.4 million was spent to acquire leasehold to support future exploration activity. During the first six months of 2010, Comstock drilled 36 wells (22.7 net), 15 of which have been successfully completed as producing wells. As of June 30, 2010 the Company also had eight wells in the process of being drilled.
In the East Texas/North Louisiana region, Comstock drilled 35 wells (22.2 net) so far in 2010. Thirty-four of the wells are Haynesville shale wells. Eleven of the 24 operated Haynesville shale wells drilled in 2010 have been completed and were put on production at an average initial production rate of 12.5 MMcfe per day.
Since the Company's last operational update, Comstock has completed five operated wells in its East Texas/North Louisiana region. Three of the completed wells are in its North Toledo Bend field in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana, one is at its Logansport field in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana and one in its Beckville field in Harrison County, Texas. The wells at North Toledo Bend were tested an average per well initial production rate of 10 MMcfe per day, the Logansport well was tested at 16 MMcfe per day and the Beckville well in East Texas was tested at 9 MMcfe per day. These wells were drilled with horizontal laterals from 4,500 feet to 5,000 feet and were completed with 15 to 18 frac stages. The initial production rates reflect the Company's "choke back" program where new completions are being tested and produced with a tighter choke to maintain a higher reservoir pressure in the we ll for a longer time. The Company believes that the ultimate reserve recovery will improve for the wells under this program.
In addition to its Haynesville shale horizontal drilling program, Comstock has drilled two vertical wells during 2010. Comstock successfully completed a Cotton Valley well in its Blocker field in East Texas and also completed the Julian Pasture #4 in its Ball Ranch field in South Texas which was tested at an initial production rate of 8 MMcfe per day.
Due to the high demand for high pressure pumping services, the Company currently has 17 wells which are drilled and waiting on completion. Comstock is working with oil field service providers to address its backlog of wells awaiting completion but does not expect the situation to improve until late 2010 or early 2011. With the substantial delays in completions, Comstock now expects its production level to decrease in the third quarter from the second quarter.
During the second quarter of 2010, Comstock began an active lease acquisition program in the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas. The Company has acquired or is in the process of acquiring leasehold interests in approximately 18,000 net acres which are prospective for Eagle Ford shale and plans on acquiring up to an additional 10,000 acres. Comstock expects to begin drilling operations in the Eagle Ford shale during the third quarter of 2010 by moving one of its drilling rigs from its East Texas/North Louisiana region. Comstock has also increased its leasehold position in the Haynesville shale and Bossier shale plays in North Louisiana and East Texas. Since the beginning of the year the Company has added approximately 5,000 net acres prospective for both the Haynesville and Bossier shales. &
#160;
The Company expects to spend approximately $500 million in 2010 for exploration and development activities. $350 million will be spent to drill 69 wells (46.5 net) with $150 million to acquire exploratory acreage prospective for the Haynesville and Eagle Ford shale. All but three of the wells will be horizontal wells drilled to test either Haynesville or Eagle Ford shale.
Comstock has planned a conference call for 9:30 a.m. Central Time on Tuesday, August 3, 2010, to discuss the operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2010. Investors wishing to participate should visit the Company's website at www.comstockresources.com for a live web cast or dial 1-888-396-2298 (international dial-in use 617-847-8708) and provide access code 69569175 when prompted.
