Permian Resources Corp

Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Permian Resources Corporation is an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the responsible acquisition, optimization and development of crude oil and associated liquids-rich natural gas reserves. The Company’s assets and operations are primarily concentrated in the core of the Permian Basin, and its properties consist of large, contiguous acreage blocks located in West Texas and New Mexico. Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all references in these notes to “Permian Resources” or the “Company” are to Permian Resources Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Permian Resources Operating, LLC (“OpCo”).

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in an Annual Report on Form 10-K have been omitted. The consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”). Except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes to the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report.

In the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments and accruals considered necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s interim financial results have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of expected results for the full year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary OpCo, and OpCo’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. Noncontrolling interest represents third-party ownership in OpCo and is presented as a component of equity. Refer to Note 9—Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interestfor a discussion of noncontrolling interest.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires the Company’s management to make various assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosures of commitments and contingencies. Changes in these assumptions, judgments and estimates will occur as a result of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events, and accordingly, actual results could differ from amounts previously established. Additionally, the prices received for oil, natural gas and NGL production can heavily influence the Company’s assumptions, judgments and estimates, and continued volatility of oil and gas prices could have a significant impact on the Company’s estimates.

The more significant areas requiring the use of assumptions, judgments and estimates include: (i) oil and natural gas reserves; (ii) cash flow estimates used in impairment tests for long-lived assets; (iii) impairment expense of unproved properties; (iv) depreciation, depletion and amortization; (v) asset retirement obligations; (vi) determining fair value and allocating purchase price in connection with business combinations and asset acquisitions; (vii) accrued revenues and related receivables; (viii) accrued liabilities; (ix) derivative valuations; (x) deferred income taxes; and (xi) determining the fair values of certain stock-based compensation awards.

Leases

The Company has operating leases for drilling rig contracts, office rental agreements and other wellhead equipment and a financing lease for a ground lease for its office building in Midland, Texas. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company entered intotwo drilling rig contracts each with lease terms ofthree years. A lease right-of-use asset and related liability were recorded for these drilling rig contracts based on the present value of the future lease payments of the drilling rigs over the lease terms. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had recorded in aggregate a $22.2 million current operating lease liability and a $37.6 million noncurrent operating lease liability related to these drilling rig contracts.

The following table provides additional information related to the Company’s lease assets and liabilities as presented on balance sheet for the periods presented:

There have been no other significant changes in leases during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Refer to Note 16—Leases in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Report for additional information on the Company’s operating and financing leases.

Income Taxes

The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income or loss of OpCo, as well as any stand-alone income or loss generated by the Company. OpCo is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, OpCo is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by OpCo is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including the Company, on a pro rata basis.

Income tax expense recognized during interim periods is based on applying an estimated annual effective income tax rate to the Company’s year-to-date income, plus any significant unusual or infrequently occurring items which are recorded in the interim period. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in various state jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information becomes known or as the tax environment changes.

Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures

Earthstone Merger

On November 1, 2023, the Company completed its merger (the “Earthstone Merger”) with Earthstone Energy, Inc. (“Earthstone”). Earthstone was an independent oil and gas company engaged in the operation and development of oil and natural gas properties in the Permian Basin in both Texas and New Mexico. Refer to Note 2—Business Combinations footnote in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Report for additional details regarding the Earthstone Merger.

Purchase Price Allocation

As of the date of this filing, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are not complete and adjustments may be made. The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation during the 12-month period subsequent to the Earthstone Merger closing date. There were no significant adjustments to the purchase price allocation during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Supplemental Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

The results of Earthstone’s operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since November 1, 2023, the effective date of the Earthstone Merger. The following supplemental unaudited pro forma financial information (“pro forma information”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 has been prepared from the respective historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and Earthstone and has been adjusted to reflect the Earthstone Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2023.

The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Earthstone Merger occurred in the past and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the following pro forma information.

2024 Asset Acquisitions

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company completed multiple acquisitions of oil and natural gas properties for a cumulative adjusted purchase price of approximately $355 million. These transactions were recorded as asset acquisitions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codifications (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”).

2023 SWD Divestiture

On March 13, 2023, the Company completed the sale of its operated saltwater disposal wells and the associated produced water infrastructure in Reeves County, Texas. The total cash consideration received at closing was $125 million of which $65 million was directly related to the sale and transfer of control of its water assets, while the remaining $60 million consisted of contingent consideration that is tied to the Company’s future drilling, completion and water connection activity in Reeves County, Texas. The $60 million of contingent consideration will require repayment if certain performance obligations through September 2026 are not met, and it has been recorded as a liability within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet accordingly. All performance obligations have been met during the payment periods and as of June 30, 2024, the remaining balance of the contingent consideration was $50 million. There was no gain or loss recognized as a result of this divestiture.

Note 4—Long-Term Debt

The following table provides information about the Company’s long-term debt as of the dates indicated:

Credit Agreement

OpCo, the Company’s consolidated subsidiary, has a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks that provides for afive-year secured revolving credit facility, maturing in February 2027 (the “Credit Agreement”) that, as of June 30, 2024, had a borrowing base of $4.0 billion and elected commitments of $2.5 billion. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $375.0 million in borrowings outstanding and $2.1 billion in available borrowing capacity, net of $5.6 million in letters of credit outstanding.

In connection with the spring borrowing base redetermination in April 2024, the Company entered into the seventh amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”). The Seventh Amendment, among other things, increased the elected commitments under the Credit Agreement to $2.5 billion from $2.0 billion and reaffirmed the borrowing base at $4.0 billion.

The amount available to be borrowed under the Credit Agreement is equal to the lesser of (i) the borrowing base, which is set at $4.0 billion; (ii) aggregate elected commitments, which was set at $2.5 billion as of June 30, 2024; or (iii) $6.0 billion. The borrowing base is redetermined semi-annually in the spring and fall by the lenders in their sole discretion. It also allows for the Company to requesttwo optional borrowing base redeterminations in between the scheduled redeterminations. The borrowing base depends on, among other things, the quantities of OpCo’s proved oil and natural gas reserves, estimated cash flows from those reserves, and the Company’s commodity hedge positions. Upon a redetermination of the borrowing base, if actual borrowings outstanding exceed the revised borrowing capacity, OpCo could be required to immediately repay a portion of its debt outstanding. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of OpCo’s subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be base rate loans or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) loans. Interest is payable quarterly for base rate loans and at the end of the applicable interest period for SOFR loans. SOFR loans bear interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 175 to 275 basis points, depending on the percentage of elected commitments utilized, plus an additional 10 basis point credit spread adjustment. Base rate loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greatest of: (i) the agent bank’s prime rate; (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 50 basis points; or (iii) the adjusted Term SOFR rate for a one-month interest period plus 100 basis points, plus an applicable margin, ranging from 75 to 175 basis points, depending on the percentage of the borrowing base utilized. OpCo also pays a commitment fee of 37.5 to 50 basis points on unused elected commitment amounts under its facility.

The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that limit our ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) make investments and loans; (iii) enter into mergers; (iv) make restricted payments; (v) repurchase or redeem junior debt; (vi) enter into commodity hedges exceeding a specified percentage of our expected production; (vii) enter into interest rate hedges exceeding a specified percentage of its outstanding indebtedness; (viii) incur liens; (ix) sell assets; and (x) engage in transactions with affiliates.

The Credit Agreement also requires OpCo to maintain compliance with the following financial ratios:

(i) a current ratio, which is the ratio of OpCo’s consolidated current assets (including an add back of unused commitments under the revolving credit facility and excluding non-cash derivative assets and certain restricted cash) to its consolidated current liabilities (excluding the current portion of long-term debt under the Credit Agreement and non-cash derivative liabilities), of not less than 1.0 to 1.0; and

(ii) a leverage ratio, which is the ratio of total funded debt to consolidated EBITDAX (with such terms defined within the Credit Agreement) for the most recent quarter annualized, of not greater than 3.5 to 1.0.

The Credit Agreement includes fall away covenants, lower interest rates and reduced collateral requirements that OpCo may elect if OpCo is assigned an Investment Grade Rating (as defined within the Credit Agreement).

OpCo was in compliance with the covenants and the applicable financial ratios described above as of June 30, 2024.

Convertible Senior Notes

On March 19, 2021, OpCo issued $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.25% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2028 (the “Convertible Senior Notes”). On March 26, 2021, OpCo issued an additional $20.0 million of Convertible Senior Notes pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional Convertible Senior Notes. These issuances resulted in aggregate net proceeds to OpCo of $163.6 million, after deducting debt issuance costs of $6.4 million. Interest is payable on the Convertible Senior Notes semi-annually in arrears on each April 1 and October 1.

The Convertible Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and each of OpCo’s current subsidiaries that guarantee OpCo’s outstanding Senior Unsecured Notes.

The Convertible Senior Notes will mature on April 1, 2028 unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before January 3, 2028, noteholders have the right to convert their Convertible Senior Notes (i) upon the occurrence of certain events; (ii) if the Company’s share price exceeds 130% of the conversion price for any 20 trading days during the last 30 consecutive trading days of a calendar quarter, after June 30, 2021; or (iii) if the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the notes is less than 98% of the Company’s share price multiplied by the conversion rate, for a 10 consecutive trading day period. In addition, after January 2, 2028, noteholders may convert their Convertible Senior Notes at any time at their election through the second scheduled trading day immediately before the April 1, 2028 maturity date. As of June 30, 2024, certain conditions have been met, and as a result, noteholders have the right to convert their Convertible Senior Notes during the third quarter of 2024.

OpCo can settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of Class A Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Class A Common Stock, at OpCo’s election. The initial conversion rate was 159.2610 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $6.28 per share of Class A Common Stock. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events (as defined in the indenture governing the Convertible Senior Notes) which, in certain circumstances, will increase the conversion rate for a specified period of time. As of June 30, 2024, the conversion rate was adjusted to 168.8570 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes as a result of cash dividends and distributions paid. In the context of this debt issuance, we refer to the notes as convertible in accordance with ASC 470 -Debt. However, per the terms of the Convertible Senior Notes’ indenture, the Convertible Senior Notes were issued by OpCo and are exchangeable into shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock.

OpCo has the option to redeem, in whole or in part, all of the Convertible Senior Notes at any time on or after April 7, 2025, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Class A Common Stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price (i) for any 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the day immediately before the date OpCo sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) also on the trading day immediately before the date OpCo sends such notice.

If certain corporate events occur, including certain business combination transactions involving the Company or OpCo or a stock de-listing with respect to the Class A Common Stock, noteholders may require OpCo to repurchase their Convertible Senior Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the repurchase date.

Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the indenture governing the Convertible Senior Notes), the trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Convertible Senior Notes may declare the Convertible Senior Notes immediately due and payable. In addition, a default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, OpCo or any of the subsidiary guarantors will automatically cause all outstanding Convertible Senior Notes to become due and payable.

At issuance, the Company recorded a liability equal to the face value the Convertible Senior Notes, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, in Long-term debt, net in the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2024, the net liability related to the Convertible Senior Notes was $166.3 million.

Capped Called Transactions

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes in March 2021, OpCo entered into privately negotiated capped call spread transactions with option counterparties (the “Capped Call Transactions”). The Capped Call Transactions cover the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock that initially underlie the Convertible Senior Notes and are expected to (i) generally reduce potential dilution to the Class A Common Stock upon a conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes, and/or; (ii) offset any cash payments OpCo is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes, subject to a cap. The Capped Call Transactions have an initial strike price of $6.28 per share of Class A Common Stock and an initial capped price of $8.4525 per share of Class A Common Stock, each of which are subject to certain customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain corporate events, as defined in the capped call agreements.

Senior Unsecured Notes

On November 1, 2023, in connection with the Earthstone Merger, the Company entered into supplemental indentures whereby all of Earthstone’s outstanding senior notes were assumed and became the senior unsecured debt obligations of OpCo. The senior notes assumed by OpCo included $550 million of 8.00% senior notes due 2027 (the “20278.00% Senior Notes”) and $500 million of 9.875% senior notes due 2031 (the “2031 Senior Notes”). The Company recorded the acquired senior notes at their fair values as of the Earthstone Merger closing date, which were equal to 102.86% of par (a $15.7 million premium) for the 20278.00% Senior Notes and 107.37% of par (a $36.8 million premium) for the 2031 Senior Notes. Interest on the 20278.00% Senior Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year and interest on the 2031 Senior Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. Since April 15, 2024 (for the 20278.00% Senior Notes) and beginning on or after July 15, 2026 (for the 2031 Senior Notes), OpCo may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a portion of the acquired senior notes at a redemption price decreasing annually from 106% to 100% (for the 20278.00% Senior Notes) and 104.94% to 100% (for the 2031 Senior Notes) of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On September 12, 2023, OpCo issued at par $500 million of 7.00% senior notes due 2032 (the “Original 2032 Notes”) in a 144A private placement. On December 13, 2023, OpCo issued additional notes under the indenture dated September 12, 2023 that totaled an additional $500 million of 7.00% senior notes (together with the Original 2032 Notes, the “2032 Senior Notes”), which resulted in aggregate net proceeds to the Company of $982.5 million, after deducting the issuance discount of $2.5 million and debt issuance costs of $15.0 million. The 2032 Senior Notes are treated as a single series of securities and vote together as a single class, and have substantially identical terms, other than the issue date and issue price. Interest is payable on the 2032 Senior Notes semi-annually in arrears each January 15 and July 15. On or after January 15, 2027, OpCo may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a portion of the 2032 Senior Notes at a redemption price decreasing annually from 103.5% to 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On September 1, 2022, the Company completed its merger (the “Colgate Merger”) with Colgate Energy Partners III, LLC (“Colgate”). In connection with the Colgate Merger, the Company entered into supplemental indentures whereby all of Colgate’s outstanding senior notes were assumed and became the senior unsecured debt obligations of OpCo. The senior notes assumed by OpCo included $300 million of 7.75% senior notes due 2026 (the “20267.75% Senior Notes”) and $700 million of 5.875% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Senior Notes”). The Company recorded the acquired senior notes at their fair values as of the Colgate Merger closing date on September 1, 2022, which were equal to 100% of par for the 20267.75% Senior Notes and 92.96% of par (a $49.3 million debt discount) for the 2029 Senior Notes. Interest on the 20267.75% Senior Notes is paid semi-annually each February 15 and August 15 and interest on the 2029 Senior Notes is paid semi-annually each January 1 and July 1. Since February 15, 2024 (for the 20267.75% Senior Notes) and July 1, 2024 (for the 2029 Senior Notes), OpCo may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a portion of the acquired senior notes at a redemption price decreasing annually from 103.88% to 100% (for the 20267.75% Senior Notes) and 102.94% to 100% (for the 2029 Senior Notes) of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. Refer to Note 14—Subsequent Eventsfor additional information regarding the Tender Offer and redemption of the 20267.75% Senior Notes subsequent to the period ended June 30, 2024.

On November 30, 2017, OpCo issued $400.0 million of 5.375% senior notes due 2026 (the “20265.375% Senior Notes”) and on March 15, 2019, OpCo issued $500.0 million of 6.875% senior notes due 2027 (the “20276.875% Senior Notes” and, together with the 20278.00% Senior Notes, 2031 Senior Notes, 2032 Senior Notes, 20265.375% Senior Notes, 2029 Senior Notes and the 20267.75% Senior Notes, the “Senior Unsecured Notes”) in 144A private placements. In May 2020, $110.6 million aggregate principal amount of the 20265.375% Senior Notes and $143.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 20276.875% Senior Notes were validly tendered and exchanged by certain eligible bondholders for consideration consisting of $127.1 million aggregate principal amount of 8.00% second lien senior secured notes, which were fully redeemed at par in connection with the Convertible Senior Notes issuance during the second quarter of 2021. On April 5, 2024, all of OpCo’s remaining outstanding 20276.875% Senior Notes were redeemed at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of $356.4 million.

As of June 30, 2024, the remaining aggregate principal amount of the 20265.375% Senior Notes outstanding was $289.4 million. Interest is payable on the 20265.375% Senior Notes semi-annually in arrears each January 15 and July 15. Since January 15, 2023, OpCo may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a portion of the 20265.375% Senior Notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Senior Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and each of OpCo’s current subsidiaries that guarantee borrowings under OpCo’s Credit Agreement.

At any time prior to July 15, 2026 (for the 2031 Senior Notes) and January 15, 2027 (for the 2032 Senior Notes), the “Optional Redemption Dates,” OpCo may, on any one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% (for the 2031 Senior Notes) and 40% (for the 2032 Senior Notes) of the aggregate principal amount of each series of Senior Unsecured Notes with an amount of cash not greater than the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 109.875% (for the 2031 Senior Notes) and 107.000% (for the 2032 Senior Notes) of the principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Notes of the applicable series redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption; provided that at least 65% (for the 2031 Senior Notes) and 60% (for the 2032 Senior Notes) of the aggregate principal amount of each such series of Senior Unsecured Notes remains outstanding immediately after such redemption, and the redemption occurs within 180 days of the closing date of such equity offering.

At any time prior to Optional Redemption Dates, OpCo may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Senior Unsecured Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Notes redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium, and any accrued and unpaid interest as of the date of redemption. On and after the Optional Redemption Dates, OpCo may redeem the Senior Unsecured Notes, in whole or in part, at redemption prices expressed as percentages of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

If OpCo experiences certain defined changes of control accompanied by a ratings decline, each holder of the Senior Unsecured Notes may require OpCo to repurchase all or a portion of its Senior Unsecured Notes for cash at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Senior Unsecured Notes, plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

The indentures governing the Senior Unsecured Notes contain covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, limit OpCo’s ability and the ability of OpCo’s restricted subsidiaries to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain types of preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends on capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire capital stock or subordinated indebtedness; (iii) transfer or sell assets; (iv) make investments; (v) create certain liens; (vi) enter into agreements that restrict dividends or other payments from their subsidiaries to them; (vii) consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of their assets; (viii) engage in transactions with affiliates; and (ix) create unrestricted subsidiaries. OpCo was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2024.

Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the indentures governing the Senior Unsecured Notes), the trustee or the holders of at least 25% (or in the case of the 20267.75% Senior Notes and the 2029 Senior Notes,30%) of the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Senior Unsecured Notes may declare the Senior Unsecured Notes immediately due and payable. In addition, a default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to OpCo, any restricted subsidiary of OpCo that is a significant subsidiary, or any group of restricted subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary, will automatically cause all outstanding Senior Unsecured Notes to become due and payable.

Note 5—Asset Retirement Obligations

The following table summarizes changes in the Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) associated with its working interests in oil and gas properties for the six months ended June 30, 2024:

(1)The current portion of ARO is included within Other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

ARO reflect the present value of the estimated future costs associated with the plugging and abandonment of oil and gas wells, removal of equipment and facilities from leased acreage and land restoration in accordance with applicable local, state and federal laws. Inherent in the fair value calculation of ARO are numerous estimates and assumptions, including plug and abandonment settlement amounts, inflation factors, credit adjusted discount rates and the timing of settlement. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions impact the value of the existing ARO liabilities, a corresponding offsetting adjustment is made to the oil and gas property balance. Changes in the liability due to the passage of time are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the liability with an offsetting charge to accretion expense, which is included within depreciation, depletion and amortization.

Note 6—Stock-Based Compensation

On May 23, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”). The LTIP is an equity incentive plan that replaced the Company’s prior plan and, among other things, increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock authorized for issuance to employees and directors by 25,000,000 shares to a total of 69,250,000 shares. In connection with the Earthstone Merger, the Company amended and restated the LTIP to further increase the number of shares of Class A Common Stock authorized for issuance by 2,468,560 shares, representing the shares assumed from Earthstone’s Amended and Restated 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan, resulting in a total of 71,718,560 shares authorized for issuance. The LTIP provides for grants of restricted stock, stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), restricted stock units (including performance stock units), stock appreciation rights and other stock or cash-based awards.

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized within both General and administrative expenses and Exploration and other expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company accounts for forfeitures of awards granted under the LTIP as they occur.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized for the periods presented:

Equity Awards

The Company has restricted stock, stock options and performance stock units (“PSUs”) outstanding that were granted under the LTIP as discussed below. Each award has service-based and, in the case of the PSUs, market-based vesting requirements, and are expected to be settled in shares of Class A Common Stock upon vesting. As a result, these awards are classified as equity-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).

In connection with the Colgate Merger, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) approved a resolution to extend severance benefits under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”) to employees that experience a Qualifying Termination (as defined in the Severance Plan) following the Colgate Merger. As a result, affected employees of the Company received an accelerated vesting of their unvested restricted stock awards and PSUs upon termination, which changed the terms of the vesting conditions and were treated as modifications in accordance with ASC 718. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, four employees had Qualifying Terminations related to the Colgate Merger as compared toseventeen employees during the six months ended June 30, 2023, all of which received accelerated vesting of their unvested stock awards or had changes in their service periods resulting in modifications of such impacted stock awards. These modifications resulted in an increase to total stock-based compensation expense of $12.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and $25.9 million and $32.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as a result of the change in the fair value of the modified awards. The restricted stock shares and performance stock units that were accelerated are included within the vested line items in the below tables.

Restricted Stock

The following table provides information about restricted stock activity during the six months ended June 30, 2024:

The Company grants service-based restricted stock to certain officers and employees, which either vests ratably over athree-year service period or cliff vests upon athree tofive year service period, and to directors, which vest over aone-year service period. Compensation cost for these service-based restricted stock grants is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the grant date, and such costs are recognized ratably over the applicable vesting period. The total fair value of restricted stock that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $12.5 million and $23.3 million, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted shares that were unvested as of June 30, 2024 was $39.6 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.

Stock Options

Stock options that have been granted under the LTIP expireten years from the grant date and vest ratably over their three-year service period. The exercise price for an option granted under the LTIP is the closing market price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the grant date. Compensation cost for stock options is based on the grant-date fair value of the award, which is then recognized ratably over the vesting period ofthree years.

The following table provides information about stock option awards outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2024:

Performance Stock Units

The Company grants performance stock units (“PSU”) to certain officers and members of management that are subject to market-based vesting criteria as well as a service period ranging from three tofive years. Vesting at the end of the service period depends on the Company’s absolute annualized total shareholder return (“TSR”) over the service period, as well as the Company’s TSR relative to the TSR of a peer group of companies. These market-based conditions must be met in order for the stock awards to vest, and it is therefore possible that no shares could ultimately vest. However, the Company recognizes compensation expense for the PSUs subject to market conditions regardless of whether it becomes probable that these conditions will be met or not, and compensation expense is not reversed if vesting does not actually occur.

The Company’s PSUs currently outstanding can be settled in either Class A Common Stock or cash upon vesting at the Company’s discretion. The Company intends to settle all PSUs in Class A Common Stock and has sufficient shares available under the LTIP to settle the units in Class A Common Stock at the potential future vesting dates. Accordingly, the PSUs have been treated as equity-based awards with their fair values determined as of the grant or modification date, as applicable. The fair values of the awards are estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The Monte Carlo valuation model is based on random projections of stock price paths and must be repeated numerous times to achieve a probabilistic assessment. Expected volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, and the risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yield curve rates with maturities consistent with the vesting periods.

The following table summarizes the key assumptions and related information used to determine the fair value of PSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2024:

The following table provides information about PSUs outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2024:

(1)This balance includes vested PSU awards as of June 30, 2024 based on the original number of PSUs granted. Actual PSUs vested is based upon the Company’s absolute annualized TSR calculation at the time of vesting, which may be greater than or less than the original number granted.

As of June 30, 2024, there was $49.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to PSUs that were unvested, which the Company expects to recognize on a pro-rata basis over a weighted average period of 2.3 years.

Note 7—Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations and may use derivative instruments to manage its exposure to commodity price risk from time to time.

Commodity Derivative Contracts

Historically, prices received for crude oil and natural gas production have been volatile because of supply and demand factors, worldwide political factors, general economic conditions and seasonal weather patterns. The Company may periodically use derivative instruments, such as swaps, costless collars and basis swaps, to mitigate its exposure to declines in commodity prices and to the corresponding negative impacts such declines can have on its cash flows from operations, returns on capital and other financial results. While the use of these instruments limits the downside risk of adverse price changes, their use may also limit future revenues from favorable price changes. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative or trading purposes.

Commodity Swaps, Collar Contracts and Deferred Premium Puts. The Company may use commodity derivative instruments known as fixed price swaps to realize a known price for a specific volume of production, basis swaps to hedge the difference between the index price and a local or future index price, costless collars to establish fixed price floors and ceilings, or deferred premium puts to establish fixed price floors while delaying the premium payment until the option’s expiration. All transactions are settled in cash with one party paying the other for the resulting difference in price multiplied by the contract volume.

The following table summarizes the approximate volumes and average contract prices of derivative contracts the Company had in place as of June 30, 2024:

(1) These crude oil swap transactions are settled based on the NYMEX WTI index price on each trading day within the specified monthly settlement period versus the contractual swap price for the volumes stipulated.

(2) These crude oil collars are settled based on the NYMEX WTI index price on each trading day within the specified monthly settlement period versus the contractual floor and ceiling prices for the volumes stipulated.

(3) These crude oil deferred premium puts are settled based on the NYMEX WTI index price on each trading day within the specified monthly settlement period versus the contractual put prices for the volumes stipulated.

(4) These crude oil basis swap transactions are settled based on the difference between the arithmetic average of ARGUS MIDLAND WTI and ARGUS WTI CUSHING indices, during each applicable monthly settlement period.

(5) These crude oil roll swap transactions are settled based on the difference between the arithmetic average of NYMEX WTI calendar month prices and the physical crude oil delivery month price.

(1) These natural gas swap contracts are settled based on the NYMEX Henry Hub price on each trading day within the specified monthly settlement period versus the contractual swap price for the volumes stipulated.

(2) These natural gas basis swap contracts are settled based on the difference between the Inside FERC’s West Texas WAHA price and the NYMEX price of natural gas, during each applicable monthly settlement period.

(3) These natural gas collars are settled based on the NYMEX Henry Hub price on each trading day within the specified monthly settlement period versus the contractual floor and ceiling prices for the volumes stipulated.

Derivative Instrument Reporting. The Company’s oil and natural gas derivative instruments have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Therefore, all gains and losses are recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. All derivative instruments are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, other than derivative instruments that meet the “normal purchase normal sale” exclusion, and any fair value gains and losses are recognized in current period earnings.

The following table presents the impact of the Company’s derivative instruments in its consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented:

Offsetting of Derivative Assets and Liabilities. The Company’s commodity derivatives are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as derivative assets and liabilities. The Company nets its financial derivative instrument fair value amounts executed with the same counterparty pursuant to ISDA master netting agreements, which provide for net settlement over the term of the contract and in the event of default or termination of the contract. The tables below summarize the fair value amounts and the classification in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company’s derivative contracts outstanding at the respective balance dates, as well as the gross recognized derivative assets, liabilities and offset amounts:

(1) The Company has agreements in place with each of its counterparties that allow for the financial right of offset for derivative assets against derivative liabilities at settlement or in the event of a default under the agreements or if contracts are terminated.

Contingent Features in Financial Derivative Instruments. None of the Company’s derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features. Counterparties to the Company’s financial derivative contracts are high credit-quality financial institutions that are primarily lenders under OpCo’s Credit Agreement. The Company enters into new hedge arrangements only with participants under its Credit Agreement, since these institutions are secured equally with the holders of any OpCo bank debt, which eliminates the potential need to post collateral when the Company is in a derivative liability position. As a result, the Company is not required to post letters of credit or corporate guarantees for its derivative counterparties in order to secure contract performance obligations.

In addition, the Company is exposed to credit risk associated with its derivative contracts from non-performance by its counterparties. The Company mitigates its exposure to any single counterparty by contracting with a number of financial institutions, each of which has a high credit rating and is a lender under OpCo’s Credit Agreement as referenced above.

Note 8—Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, which establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1: Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•Level 2: Significant Other Observable Inputs – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

•Level 3: Significant Unobservable Inputs – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents, for each applicable level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s net derivative assets and liabilities, including both current and noncurrent portions, measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are categorized within the above fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used by the Company as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the above fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during any period presented.

Derivatives

The Company uses Level 2 inputs to measure the fair value of its oil and natural gas commodity derivatives. The Company uses industry-standard models that consider various assumptions including current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, implied market volatility, time value, nonperformance risk, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument and can be supported by observable data. The Company utilizes its counterparties’ valuations to assess the reasonableness of its own valuations. Refer to Note 7—Derivative Instruments for details of the gross and net derivative assets, liabilities and offset amounts as presented in the consolidated balance sheets.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of the fair value measurement standard on a nonrecurring basis to its non-financial assets and liabilities, including proved oil and gas properties. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances.

Oil and Gas Property Acquisitions. The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured on the acquisition date using an income valuation technique based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs. Significant inputs to the valuation of acquired oil and gas properties include estimates of: (i) reserves; (ii) production rates; (iii) future development costs; (iv) future commodity prices, including price differentials; (v) future cash flows; (vi) a market participant-based weighted average cost of capital rate and (vii) risk adjustment factors applied to proved and unproved reserves. These inputs require significant judgements and estimates by the Company’s management at the time of valuation.

Impairment of Oil and Natural Gas Properties. The Company reviews its proved oil and natural gas properties for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the fair value of these assets may be below their carrying value. An impairment loss is indicated if the sum of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows from oil and gas properties is less than the carrying amount of the assets. In this circumstance, the Company then recognizes impairment expense for the amount by which the carrying amount of proved properties exceeds their estimated fair value. The Company reviews its oil and natural gas properties on a field-by-field basis.

The Company calculates the estimated fair value of its oil and natural gas properties using an income approach that is based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs. Significant inputs to the expected future net cash flows used for the impairment review and the related fair value measurement of oil and natural gas proved properties include estimates of: (i) oil and gas reserves; (ii) future production decline rates; (iii) future operating and development costs; (iv) future commodity prices, including price differentials; and (v) a market participant-based weighted average cost of capital rate. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by the Company’s management.

Asset Retirement Obligations. The initial measurement of ARO at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and is based on internal estimates of future retirement costs associated with property, plant and equipment. Significant Level 3 inputs used in the calculation of ARO include the estimated future costs to plug and abandon oil and gas properties and reserve lives. Refer to Note 5—Asset Retirement Obligations for additional information on the Company’s ARO.

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturities and/or liquid nature of these assets and liabilities.

The Company’s senior notes and borrowings under its Credit Agreement are accounted for at cost. The following table summarizes the carrying values, principal amounts and fair values of these instruments as of the periods indicated:

(1)The carrying values of the amounts outstanding under OpCo’s Credit Agreement approximate fair value because its variable interest rates are tied to current market rates and the applicable credit spreads represent current market rates for the credit risk profile of the Company.

(2)The carrying values include associated unamortized debt issuance costs and any debt discounts as reflected in the consolidated balance sheets. The fair values are determined using quoted market prices for these debt securities, a Level 1 classification in the fair value hierarchy, and are based on the aggregate principal amount of the senior notes outstanding.

(3)The Convertible Senior Notes are subject to certain conditions that allow them to be convertible prior to their maturity and as of June 30, 2024, noteholders have the right to convert during the third quarter of 2024. The Company has Capped Call Transactions that cover the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock that underlie the Convertible Senior Notes and would offset any cash payment OpCo is required to make in excess of the principal amount of these notes. Refer to Note 4—Long-Term Debtfor additional information on the Convertible Senior Notes and associated Capped Call Transactions.

Note 9—Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interest

Stock Conversion

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, certain legacy owners of Colgate and Earthstone exchanged 126.5 million and 21.9 million, respectively, of their common units of OpCo (“Common Unit”) and corresponding shares of Class C Common Stock for Class A Common Stock. Deferred tax assets of $89.6 million and $2.5 million were recorded in equity as a result of the conversions of shares from the noncontrolling interest owners for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. No cash proceeds were received by the Company in connection with these conversions.

Stock Issuance

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 6.2 million shares of Class A Common Stock, which were issued as partial consideration for a portion of the 2024 asset acquisitions discussed in Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures. No cash proceeds were received by the Company in connection with this issuance.

Dividends

The following table summarizes the Company’s base and variable dividend per share of Class A Common Stock and distribution per Common Unit (each of which has an underlying share of Class C Common Stock) declared and paid during each period:

Stock Repurchase Program

The Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to acquire up to $500 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock (the “Repurchase Program”), which was approved to run through December 31, 2024. The Repurchase Program can be used by the Company to reduce its shares of Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock outstanding. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open-market or via privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion and will be subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, available liquidity, compliance with the Company’s debt agreements and other factors. The Repurchase Program does not require any specific number of shares to be acquired and can be modified or discontinued by the Company’s Board of Directors at any time.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company paid $61.0 million and $29.4 million, respectively, to repurchase 3.8 million and 2.8 million, respectively, Common Units of OpCo resulting in an equal number of the underlying shares of Class C Common Stock simultaneously being canceled under its Repurchase Program.

Noncontrolling Interest

The noncontrolling interest relates to Common Units that were issued in connection with the Colgate Merger and the Earthstone Merger. The noncontrolling interest percentage is affected by various equity transactions such as Common Unit and Class C Common Stock exchanges and transactions involving Class A Common Stock.

As of June 30, 2024, the noncontrolling interest ownership of OpCo had decreased to 13% from 30% as of December 31, 2023. This decrease was mainly the result of (i) exchanges of Common Units (and corresponding shares of Class C Common Stock) for Class A Common Stock and (ii) Class C Common Stock repurchases completed by the Company as discussed above.

The Company consolidates the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of OpCo and reflects the portion retained by other holders of Common Units as a noncontrolling interest. Refer to the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity for a summary of the activity attributable to the noncontrolling interest during the period.

Note 10—Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Class A Common Stock by the weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average shares of diluted Class A Common Stock outstanding, which includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities for the diluted EPS calculation consists of (i) unvested equity-based restricted stock and performance stock units and outstanding stock options, all using the treasury stock method; (ii) equity-based restricted stock and performance stock units that were vested but not outstanding, using the treasury stock method; and (iii) the Company’s Class C Common Stock and potential shares issuable under our Convertible Senior Notes, both using the “if-converted” method, which is net of tax.

The following table reflects the EPS computations for the periods indicated based on a weighted average number of Class A Common Stock outstanding each period:

The following table presents shares excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the periods presented as their impact was anti-dilutive:

Note 11—Transactions with Related Parties

Pearl Energy Investments (“Pearl”), EnCap Partners GP, LLC (“EnCap”), Riverstone Investment Group LLC (“Riverstone”) and related affiliates of each entity each beneficially owned more than 5% of any class of common stock in the Company as of June 30, 2024. Due to Pearl’s, EnCap’s and Riverstone’s beneficial ownership, these entities are considered related parties to the Company. NGP Energy Capital (“NGP”), was a related party through the first quarter of 2024, however, NGP no longer beneficially owns more than 5% of any class of common stock in the Company as of June 30, 2024 and is no longer considered a related party to the Company.

The Company has a vendor arrangement with Streamline Innovations Inc, (“Streamline”) who was a former affiliate of Riverstone beginning in the second quarter of 2022 and is now an affiliate of Pearl as of June 30, 2024 that represents a related party transaction. The Company believes that the terms of this arrangement are no less favorable to either party than those held with unaffiliated parties.

The following table summarizes the costs incurred from the arrangement during the periods it was considered a related party, as discussed above, as included in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods indicated:

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company paid various affiliates of NGP and EnCap for revenues earned based upon their net revenue interests held in wells that are operated by the Company. These relationships are considered ordinary in the course of business and the terms of these relationships are no more favorable than those held with unaffiliated parties.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company repurchased 3.8 million and 2.8 million Common Units of OpCo from NGP, respectively, for $61.0 million and $29.4 million, respectively, under the Repurchase Program. The equal number of underlying shares of Class C Common Stock were simultaneously canceled by the Company.

Note 12—Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company routinely enters into, extends or amends operating agreements in the ordinary course of business. There has been no material, non-routine changes in commitments during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Please refer to Note 14—Commitments and Contingencies included in Part II, Item 8 in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report.

Contingencies

The Company may at times be subject to various commercial or regulatory claims, prior period adjustments from service providers, litigation or other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these lawsuits and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes it is remote that the impact of such matters, other than those discussed below, that are reasonably possible to occur will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In February 2021, the Permian Basin was impacted by record-low temperatures and a severe winter storm (“Winter Storm Uri”) that resulted in multi-day electrical outages and shortages, pipeline and infrastructure freezes, transportation disruptions, and regulatory actions in Texas, which led to significant increases in gas prices, gathering, processing and transportation fees and electrical rates during this time. As a result, many oil and gas operators, including upstream producers like the Company, gas processors and purchasers, and transportation providers experienced operational disruptions. During this time, the Company was unable to utilize the entire volume of its reserved capacity on pipelines and as a result has made certain force majeure declarations. One third-party transportation provider filed a lawsuit against the Company claiming compensation for the full amount of the reserved capacity, both utilized and unutilized. The Company paid for the utilized capacity and filed a separate lawsuit against the transportation provider requesting declaratory relief for the purpose of construing the provisions of the transportation agreement relating to the unutilized capacity. At this time, the Company believes that a loss in relation to these matters is probable and in accordance with ASC Topic 450-20, Loss Contingencieshas recorded a net estimated liability of $6.5 million, inclusive of estimated interest penalties, as of June 30, 2024. Future changes in facts and circumstances not currently known or foreseeable could result in the actual liability exceeding the estimated loss accrued, however, the Company believes that any such loss above the amount accrued would not be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Other than the matter above, management is unaware of any pending litigation brought against the Company requiring a contingent liability to be recognized as of the date of these consolidated financial statements.

Note 13—Revenues

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Crude oil, natural gas and NGL sales are recognized at the point that control of the product is transferred to the customer and collectability is reasonably assured. Substantially all of the Company’s contract pricing provisions are tied to a market index, with certain adjustments based on, among other factors, transportation costs to an active spot market and quality differentials. As a result, the Company’s realized prices of oil, natural gas, and NGLs fluctuate to remain competitive with other available oil, natural gas, and NGLs supplies both globally (in the case of crude oil) and locally.

Oil and gas revenues presented within the consolidated statements of operations relate to the sale of oil, natural gas and NGLs as shown below:

(1)Natural gas sales include a portion of gathering, processing and transportation costs (“GP&T”) that are reflected as a reduction to natural gas sales of $23.6 million and $48.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $7.4 million and $18.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

(2)NGL sales include a portion of GP&T that are reflected as a reduction to NGL sales of $18.8 million and $41.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $16.5 million and $32.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Oil sales

The Company’s crude oil sales contracts are generally structured whereby oil is delivered to the purchaser at a contractually agreed-upon delivery point at which the purchaser takes title of the product. This delivery point is usually at the wellhead or at the inlet of a transportation pipeline. Revenue is recognized when control transfers to the purchaser at the delivery point based on the net price received from the purchaser. Any downstream transportation costs incurred by crude purchasers are reflected as a net reduction to oil sales revenues.

Natural gas and NGL sales

Under the Company’s natural gas processing contracts, liquids rich natural gas is delivered to a midstream gathering and processing entity at the agreed upon delivery point at which the purchaser takes title of the product. The midstream processing entity gathers and processes the raw gas and then remits proceeds to the Company. For these contracts, the Company evaluates when control is transferred and revenue should be recognized. Where the Company elects to take its residue gas or NGL product “in-kind” at the plant tailgate, fees incurred prior to transfer of control at the outlet of the plant are presented as GP&T within the consolidated statements of operations. Where the Company does not take its residue gas or NGL products “in-kind”, transfer of control occurs at the inlet of the gas gathering systems, or prior, and fees incurred subsequent to this point are reflected as a net reduction to natural gas and NGL sales revenues presented in the table above.

Performance obligations

For all commodity products, the Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. Settlement statements for crude oil are generally received within 30 days following the date that production volumes are delivered, but for natural gas and NGL sales, statements may not be received for 30 to 60 days after delivery has occurred. However, payment is unconditional once the performance obligations have been satisfied. At such time, the volumes delivered and sales prices can be reasonably estimated and amounts due from customers are accrued in Accounts receivable, net in the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, such receivable balances were $287.7 million and $346.0 million, respectively.

The Company records any differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for product sales in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. Historically, any identified differences between revenue estimates and actual revenue received have not been significant. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, revenue recognized in the reporting period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods were not material.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations

For the Company’s product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, the Company has utilized the practical expedient in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from contracts with Customers, which states the Company is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, monthly sales of a product generally represent a separate performance obligation. Therefore, future commodity volumes to be delivered and sold are wholly unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to such unsatisfied performance obligations is not required.

Note 14—Subsequent Events

Pending Bolt-On Acquisition

On July 27, 2024, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with certain affiliates of Occidental Petroleum Corporation to acquire oil and gas properties for total consideration of $817.5 million, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments, (the “Bolt-On Acquisition”). The Bolt-On Acquisition includes approximately 29,500 net leasehold acres and approximately 9,900 net royalty acres that are predominately located directly offsetting the Company’s existing assets in Reeves County, Texas, as well as Eddy County, New Mexico. Additionally, the acquired assets in Reeves County include a fully integrated midstream system, consisting of over 100 miles of operated oil and gas gathering systems, approximately 10,000 surface acres, and water infrastructure including saltwater disposal wells, a recycling facility, frac ponds and water wells. The Bolt-On Acquisition is expected to close during the third quarter of 2024, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company intends to fund the Bolt-On Acquisition with cash on hand and a portion of the net proceeds from the July 2024 equity offering and August 2024 senior notes issuance, each discussed below. The Company is currently evaluating the accounting treatment of this transaction.

Equity Offering

On July 30, 2024, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 26.5 million shares of its Class A Common Stock in which the Company received net cash proceeds of $402.8 million after underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this equity offering to fund a portion of the aggregate purchase price of the Bolt-On Acquisition or for general corporate purposes.

Senior Notes Issuance

On August 5, 2024 the Company issued $1.0 billion of 6.25% senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes”) in a 144A private placement. The 2033 Senior Notes were issued at par resulting in aggregate net proceeds to the Company of approximately $987.9 million after deducting the debt issuance costs. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the 2033 Senior Notes to (i) fund the Tender Offer (as defined below) and the redemption of 20267.75% Senior Notes not purchased in the Tender Offer (as discussed below); (ii) fund a portion of the purchase price of the Bolt-On Acquisition; and (iii) repay a portion of borrowings outstanding under its credit facility. The 2033 Senior Notes mature on February 1, 2033 and pay interest at the rate of 6.25% per year, payable on August 1 and February 1 of each year.

Senior Notes Tender & Redemption

In connection with the 2033 Senior Notes issuance, the Company issued a cash tender offer to purchase any and all of its outstanding 20267.75% Senior Notes (“Tender Offer”), which is expected to settle in the third quarter of 2024. Subject to the completion of the Tender Offer, the Company intends to redeem all 20267.75% Senior Notes not purchased in the Tender Offer on or about February 15, 2025 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.

Dividends Declared

On August 6, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly base dividend of $0.06 per share of Class A Common Stock and distribution of $0.06 per share of Class C Common Stock (each of which has an underlying Common Unit of OpCo). Additionally, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a variable dividend of $0.15 per share of Class A Common Stock and distribution of $0.15 per share of Class C Common Stock. The base and variable dividend represent a total return of $0.21 per share. The dividend is payable August 27, 2024 to shareholders of record as of August 19, 2024.
