facing gives a modifier to the hit percentage. If shooting at something from the rear or flanks you will have a higher hit percentage as compared to head on shots.

I'm not sure about facing, but it shouldn't matter as the enemy is surprised and cannot attack anyhow. As far as I can tell it doesn't matter if you are facing away.
I've had a few running battles where I was pulling back and the enemy kept getting "surprised".
