Acquisitions and Divestitures | Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures 2024 Bolt-On Acquisition On September 17, 2024, the Company completed its acquisition of oil and gas properties with certain affiliates of Occidental Petroleum Corporation for total cash consideration of $743.5 million, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments (the “Bolt-On Acquisition”). The Bolt-On Acquisition included 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 was completed to drive long-term accretion across the Company’s key financial and operating metrics, enhance shareholder returns and add core inventory locations to the Company’s existing position in the Permian Basin. Purchase Price Allocation The Bolt-On Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition closing date, which requires judgment and certain estimates and assumptions to be made. Oil and natural gas properties were valued using an income based approach, which incorporates a discounted cash flow method. The pro forma impact of this business combination to revenues and net income is not disclosed as it was deemed not to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. As of the date of this filing, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and not complete as adjustments may be made. The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation during the 12-month period subsequent to the Bolt-On Acquisition closing date. The following table represents the preliminary consideration and purchase price allocation of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the closing date of the business combination.

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 September 30, 2024, the remaining balance of the contingent consideration was $40 million. There was no gain or loss recognized as a result of this divestiture.
