Reorganizations [Abstract]  
Fresh Start Accounting Fresh Start Accounting
At the Emergence Date, the Company was required to adopt fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852 as (i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor and (ii) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan of $2.2 billion was less than the total of post-petition liabilities and allowed claims of $3.2 billion. Refer to Note 2—Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11 for the terms of the Plan.
Reorganization Value
Under fresh start accounting, reorganization value represents the value of the entity before considering liabilities and is intended to represent the approximate amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets immediately after the restructuring. Upon the adoption of fresh start accounting, the Company allocated the reorganization value to its individual assets and liabilities based on their fair values (except for deferred income taxes) in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business
Combinations. Deferred income tax amounts were determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”).
Reorganization value is derived from an estimate of enterprise value, or the fair value of the Company’s interest-bearing debt and stockholders’ equity. As set forth in the Plan and related disclosure statement approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the enterprise value of the Successor was estimated to be between $1.3 billion and $1.7 billion. The enterprise value was prepared using reserve information, development schedules, other financial information and financial projections, and applying standard valuation techniques, including risked net asset value analysis, discounted cash flow analysis, public comparable company analysis and precedent transactions analysis. At the Emergence Date, the Company estimated the enterprise value to be $1.3 billion based on the estimates and assumptions used in determining the enterprise value coupled with consideration of the indicated enterprise value implied by the trading value of the Company’s Notes prior to the Emergence Date, as the reorganized Successor’s equity would be issued to the holders of the Notes under the Plan.
The Company’s principal E&P segment assets are its oil and gas properties, which were valued using primarily an income approach. The fair value of proved oil and natural gas properties was estimated using a discounted cash flow model, which is subject to management’s judgment and expertise and includes, but is not limited to, estimates of proved reserves, future commodity pricing, future production estimates, estimates of operating and development costs and a discount rate. Estimated proved reserves were risked by reserve category and were limited to wells included in the Company's five-year development plan. The underlying future commodity prices used to estimate future cash flows were based on NYMEX forward strip prices as of Emergence Date through 2022, escalating 2% per year thereafter (based on historical average annual consumer price index percentage changes) until reaching $75 per barrel for crude oil and $4.80 per Mcf for natural gas in 2051 after which prices were held flat. These prices were adjusted for transportation fees and quality and geographical differentials. Future operating and development costs were estimated based on the Company's recent actual costs, excluding the cost benefits the Company realizes from consolidating its midstream business segment. The cash flow models also included estimates not typically included in proved reserves, such as general and administrative expenses and income tax expenses, and estimated future cash flows were discounted using a weighted average cost of capital discount rate of 11%. In estimating the fair value of the Company’s unproved acreage, a market approach was used in which a review of recent transactions involving properties in the same geographical location were considered when estimating the fair value of the Company’s acreage.
The Company’s midstream business segment is primarily operated through OMP. OMP’s enterprise value was determined using the market approach based on a volume weighted average price calculation for OMP’s outstanding limited partner units. The Company estimated the fair value of its retained interests in Bobcat DevCo and Beartooth DevCo of 64.7% and 30%, respectively, using an income approach, which was based on the anticipated future cash flows associated with the respective DevCos and discounted using a weighted average cost of capital discount rate of 13%.
The midstream segment’s tangible assets primarily consist of pipelines, natural gas processing plants, compressor stations, produced water gathering lines and disposal wells, tanks, other facilities and equipment and rights of way. The estimated fair value of these midstream assets was determined using primarily a cost approach, based on current replacement costs of the assets less depreciation based on the estimated useful lives of the assets and ages of the assets. Economic and functional obsolescence were also considered and applied in the form of inutility and excess capital costs. The midstream segment’s identifiable intangible assets include third-party customer contracts and its interest in OMP GP. The Company determined the estimated fair value of customer contracts based on the excess earnings method of the income approach, which consists of estimating the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the intangible assets only. The Company estimated the fair value of its interest in OMP GP using a combination of an income approach and market approach.
The excess reorganization value over the fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill on the Successor’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to develop enterprise value and reorganization value are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact the analysis and resulting conclusions. The assumptions used in estimating these values are inherently uncertain and require judgment. See below under “Fresh Start Adjustments” for additional information regarding assumptions used in the measurement of the Company’s various other significant assets and liabilities.
