White Rock Energy, LLC Acquisition
Current report
In May 2025, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to purchase certain oil and gas assets from White Rock Energy, LLC, which are located in the Elm Coulee field in Montana and North Dakota, for cash consideration of $338.6 million, including a deferred payment of $70.0 million which is due on July 31, 2026. In connection with entering into the purchase agreement, we paid a deposit of $34.8 million. The WRE Acquisition closed July 31, 2025 and was funded by a combination of cash on hand from the Offering and borrowings under our Credit Facility.
Current report
On a per unit basis, production expenses decreased from $18.59 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $18.30 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease is primarily related to an increase in production of 407 MBoe partially offset by increased costs attributable to production from the Williston Basin acquisitions.
Current report
Taxes, transportation, and other increased $2.0 million, or 15%, from $13.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $15.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily attributable to the increase in production and higher natural gas prices partially offset by decreased oil and NGL prices.
Current report
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”) increased $11.4 million, or 110%, from $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $21.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily attributable to the DD&A from increased production associated with the Williston Basin acquisitions of$9.8 million which has a higher rate than the historical properties, and a higher rate on our historical properties partially offset by decreased production.
Current report
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased $4.9 million, or 106%, from $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily attributable to higher personnel costs of $4.0 million primarily due to amortization of unit awards and increased acquisition expenses.

Current report
On May 15, 2025, we completed the Offering, which resulted in proceeds of approximately $165.6 million net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. On May 19, 2025, we completed the sale of an additional 1,750,000 common units at a price of $15.00 per common unit pursuant to the underwriter’s exercise in full of its option to purchase additional common units in the Offering, resulting in additional proceeds of approximately $23.9 million net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. We used the net proceeds from the Offering to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the WRE Acquisition. Prior to the closing of the WRE Acquisition, we used a portion of these proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and to fund the deposit on the WRE Acquisition.
Current report
All of the funds, or$233.8 million, to close the WRE Acquisition were borrowings under our Credit Facility, which is expected to increase our net-debt-to-EBITDAX ratio to between 1.0 times and 1.5 times.

Previous wording
On August 30, 2024, we entered into Amendment No. 4 and Borrowing Base Agreement (“Amendment No. 4”) on our senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with certain commercial banks, as the lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent. We use the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes. Amendment No. 4 extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility to August 30, 2028, increased the borrowing base from $165 million to $275 million and joined certain new Lenders to the Credit Facility.

On July 31, 2025, we entered into Amendment No. 5 to our Credit Facility with certain commercial banks, as the lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent. We use the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes. Amendment No. 5 increased the borrowing base from $275 million to $410 million, extended the maturity date to August 30, 2029 and joined certain new Lenders to the Credit Facility.
Previous wording
The oil and natural gas industry is cyclical and commodity prices are highly volatile. For example, during the period from January 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025, NYMEX prices for crude oil and natural gas reached a high of $86.91 per Bbl and $4.49 per MMBtu, respectively, and a low of $65.75 per Bbl and $1.58 per MMBtu, respectively. Oil prices increased in the first half of 2024 due to hostilities in the Middle East and higher global consumption. However, increased supply led to lower prices in the second half of 2024 and into 2025. These declines accelerated in April due to the tariff announcement and the increased expectation for a global recession. WTI crude oil prices have been volatile reaching a high of $86.91 per Bbl in April 2024 before declining to $61.50 per Bbl as of April 11, 2025. Natural gas prices reached a high of $4.49 per MMbtu in March 2025 before declining to $3.53 per MMbtu as of April 11, 2025.

WTI crude oil prices have been volatile reaching a high of $86.91 per Bbl in April 2024 before declining to $67.34 per Bbl as of July 18, 2025. Natural gas prices reached a high of $4.49 per MMbtu in March 2025 before declining to $3.57 per MMbtu as of July 18, 2025.
Previous wording
Concerns over global economic conditions, energy costs, supply chain disruptions, increased demand, labor shortages associated with a fully employed U.S. labor force, geopolitical issues, inflation, the availability and cost of credit and the United States financial markets and other factors have contributed to increased economic uncertainty and diminished expectations for the global economy. Rising inflation has been pervasive for the last several years, increasing the cost of salaries, wages, supplies, material, freight, and energy. While we have seen inflation moderate, inflation continues to run higher than the Federal Reserve target, resulting in higher costs. We continue to undertake actions and implement plans to address these pressures and protect the requisite access to commodities and services, however, these mitigation efforts may not succeed or be insufficient. Nevertheless, we expect for the foreseeable future to experience inflationary pressure on our cost structure. Principally, commodity costs for steel and chemicals required for drilling, higher transportation and fuel costs and wage increases have increased our operating costs. We do not expect these cost increases to reverse in the short term. Typically, as prices for oil and natural gas increase, so do associated costs.

We do not expect these cost increases to reverse in the short term. Typically, as prices for oil and natural gas increase, so do associated costs. Conversely, in a period of declining prices, associated cost declines are likely to lag and may not adjust downward in proportion to prices. We cannot predict the future inflation rate but to the extent these higher costs do not begin to reverse or start to increase again, we may experience a higher cost environment going forward. If we are unable to recover higher costs through higher commodity prices, our current revenue stream, estimates of future reserves, borrowing base calculations, impairment assessments of oil and natural gas properties, and values of properties in purchase and sale transactions would all be significantly impacted.

Our quarterly cash distributions may vary from quarter to quarter as a direct result of variations in the performance of our business, including those caused by fluctuations in the prices of oil and natural gas. Such variations may be significant and quarterly distributions paid to our unitholders may be zero. Our second quarter distribution of $0.45 per unit with respect to cash available for distribution for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was declared on August 5, 2025 and will be paid on August 22, 2025 to unitholders of record on August 15, 2025.

We are required to maintain (i) a current ratio (the ratio of current assets to current liabilities) greater than 1.0 to 1.0, which for purposes of this definition includes availability under the Credit Facility but excludes the fair value of derivative instruments, and (ii) a ratio of total net debt-to-EBITDAX of not greater than 3.0 to 1.0. For purposes of the total net debt- to-EBITDAX ratio, total net debt is total debt for borrowed money (including capital leases and purchase money debt) minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand at such time (not exceeding $15.0 million in the aggregate), minus the unpaid balance of the FAM Loan. EBITDAX means the sum of (i) net income plus interest expense; income taxes paid; depreciation, depletion and amortization; exploration expenses, including workover expenses; non-cash charges including unrealized losses on derivative instruments; and, any extraordinary or non-recurring charges, minus (ii) any extraordinary or non-recurring income and any non-cash income including unrealized gains on derivative instruments. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of March 31, 2025. Additionally, we believe we have adequate liquidity to continue as a going concern for at least the next twelve months from the date of this report.

We have entered into derivative instruments to hedge our exposure to commodity price fluctuations. If market prices are higher than the contract prices when the cash settlement amount is calculated, we are required to pay the contract counterparties. As of March 31, 2025, the current liability related to such contracts was $25.6 million and the long-term liability related to such contracts was $8.5 million. Such payments will generally be funded by higher prices received from the sale of oil, NGLs and natural gas. For further information on derivative contracts, see Note 10 in the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Revenues increased $32.6 million, or 57%, from $57.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $89.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Revenue increased $22.4 million due to an increase in production of 407 MBoe primarily as a result of the acquisition of producing assets in the Williston Basin being offset by natural declines in San Juan Basin and Permian Basin. Additionally, a 73% increase in the average selling price of natural gas, excluding the effects of derivatives, resulted in an increase in revenue of$5.7 million. Finally, we recognized net gains on our hedging activity of $14.5 million, of which $9.8 million were unrealized gains and $4.7 million were realized gains. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price, excluding the effects of derivatives, on oil of 23% which resulted in a decrease in revenue of $9.7 million and on NGLs of 5% which resulted in a decrease in revenue of $0.3 million.

Other income decreased $6.9 million, or 31%, from $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $15.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease is primarily attributable to the absence of $4.0 million in bonus payments on term assignment of leases and lower CO 2 and plant income of $2.7 million. The CO 2 and plant income is ancillary to the operations of the gas processing plant in the Permian Basin in New Mexico and CO 2 assets in Colorado.

Conversely, in a period of declining prices, associated cost declines are likely to lag and may not adjust downward in proportion to prices. We cannot predict the future inflation rate but to the extent these higher costs do not begin to reverse or start to increase again, we may experience a higher cost environment going forward. If we are unable to recover higher costs through higher commodity prices, our current revenue stream, estimates of future reserves, borrowing base calculations, impairment assessments of oil and natural gas properties, and values of properties in purchase and sale transactions would all be significantly impacted.
