NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Matador Resources Company, a Texas corporation (“Matador” and, collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas resources in the United States, with an emphasis on oil and natural gas shale and other unconventional plays. The Company’s current operations are focused primarily on the oil and liquids-rich portion of the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin in Southeast New Mexico and West Texas. The Company also operates in the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas and the Haynesville shale and Cotton Valley plays in Northwest Louisiana. Additionally, the Company conducts midstream operations primarily through its midstream joint venture, San Mateo Midstream, LLC and its subsidiaries (“San Mateo”), and Pronto Midstream, LLC and its subsidiary (“Pronto”) in support of the Company’s exploration, development and production operations and provides natural gas processing, oil transportation services, oil, natural gas and produced water gathering services and produced water disposal services to third parties.
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Financial Statements, Basis of Presentation, Consolidation and Significant Estimates
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 27, 2024 (the “Annual Report”). The Company consolidates certain subsidiaries and joint ventures that are less-than-wholly-owned and are not involved in oil and natural gas exploration, including San Mateo, and the net income and equity attributable to the non-controlling interest in these subsidiaries have been reported separately as required by Accounting Standards Codification, Consolidation (Topic 810). The Company proportionately consolidates certain joint ventures that are less-than-wholly-owned and are involved in oil and natural gas exploration. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In management’s opinion, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024. Amounts as of December 31, 2023 are derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions may also affect disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including oil and natural gas revenues, accrued assets and liabilities, stock-based compensation, valuation of derivative instruments, deferred tax assets and liabilities, purchase price allocations and oil and natural gas reserves. The estimates of oil and natural gas reserves quantities and future net cash flows are the basis for the calculations of depletion and impairment of oil and natural gas properties, as well as estimates of asset retirement obligations and certain tax accruals. While the Company believes its estimates are reasonable, changes in facts and assumptions or the discovery of new information may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Property and Equipment
The Company uses the full-cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, the Company is required to perform a ceiling test each quarter that determines a limit, or ceiling, on the capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties based primarily on the after-tax estimated future net cash flows from oil and natural gas properties using a 10% discount rate and the arithmetic average of first-day-of-the-month oil and natural gas prices for the prior 12-month period. For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the cost center ceiling was higher than the capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties, and, as a result, no impairment charge was necessary.
The Company capitalized approximately $15.1 million and $14.5 million of its general and administrative costs for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $32.2 million and $27.1 million of its general and administrative costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company capitalized approximately $9.3 million and $5.3 million of its interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $15.2 million and $8.7 million of its interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Earnings Per Common Share
The Company reports basic earnings attributable to Matador shareholders per common share, which excludes the effect of potentially dilutive securities, and diluted earnings attributable to Matador shareholders per common share, which includes the effect of all potentially dilutive securities unless their impact is anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Segments. In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances the disclosures required for operating segments in the Company’s annual and interim consolidated financial statements. This ASU is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its disclosures.
Income Taxes. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this standard provide for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This ASU is effective for the Company prospectively to all annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its disclosures.
Climate-Related Disclosures. On March 6, 2024, the SEC adopted a new set of rules that require a wide range of climate-related disclosures, including material climate-related risks, information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the registrant’s business, results of operations or financial condition, Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions on a phased-in basis by certain larger registrants when those emissions are material and the filing of an attestation report covering the same, and disclosure of the financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions including costs and losses. Compliance dates under the final rule are phased in by registrant category. Multiple lawsuits have been filed challenging the SEC’s new climate rules, which have been consolidated and will be heard in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. On April 4, 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the final rules until judicial review is complete. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the final rules on its disclosures.
NOTE 3 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Ameredev Acquisition
On June 12, 2024, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a subsidiary of Ameredev II Parent, LLC (“Ameredev”) from affiliates of EnCap Investments L.P., including certain oil and natural gas producing properties and undeveloped acreage located in Lea County, New Mexico and Loving and Winkler Counties, Texas (the “Ameredev Acquisition”). The Ameredev Acquisition also includes an approximate 19% stake in Piñon Midstream, LLC, which has midstream assets in southern Lea County, New Mexico. The consideration for the Ameredev Acquisition will consist of a cash payment of $1.905 billion, subject to customary closing adjustments. The consummation of the Ameredev Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval, and is expected to close late in the third quarter of 2024 with an effective date of June 1, 2024.
Q1 2024 Acquisition
On February 15, 2024, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company acquired oil and natural gas producing properties and undeveloped acreage located in Lea County, New Mexico (the “Q1 2024 Acquisition”). The Q1 2024 Acquisition had an effective date of October 1, 2023 and consideration for the acquisition consisted of an amount in cash equal to approximately $155.1 million (which amount was subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments).

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —

NOTE 3 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS — Continued
The Q1 2024 Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC Topic 805”). Under ASC Topic 805, the purchase price is allocated to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, with any excess purchase price allocated to goodwill.
The preliminary allocation of the total purchase price for the Q1 2024 Acquisition is set forth below (in thousands). The Company anticipates that the allocation of the purchase price should be finalized during 2024 upon determination of the final purchase price adjustments.

Cash consideration given | $ | 155,054 |

Current assets | $ | 3,358 |

Evaluated | 45,778
Unproved and unevaluated | 107,072
Asset retirement obligations | (1,154)
Net assets acquired | $ | 155,054 |

The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs. The fair value of oil and gas properties and asset retirement obligations were measured using the discounted cash flow technique of valuation.
Significant inputs to the valuation of oil and gas properties include estimates of: (i) future production volumes, (ii) future commodity prices and (iii) recent market comparable transactions for unproved acreage. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates and are the most sensitive and subject to change.
The results of operations for the Q1 2024 Acquisition since the closing date have been included in the Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The pro forma impact of this business combination to revenues and net income for 2024 would not be material to the Company’s 2024 revenues and net income as reported.
Advance Acquisition
On April 12, 2023, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company completed the acquisition of Advance Energy Partners Holdings, LLC (“Advance”) from affiliates of EnCap Investments L.P., including certain oil and natural gas producing properties, undeveloped acreage and midstream assets located primarily in Lea County, New Mexico and Ward County, Texas (the “Initial Advance Acquisition”). The Initial Advance Acquisition had an effective date of January 1, 2023 and an aggregate purchase price consisting of (i) an amount in cash equal to approximately $1.60 billion (which amount was subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments) (the “Cash Consideration”) and (ii) potential additional cash consideration of $7.5 million for each month of 2023 in which the average oil price (as defined in the securities purchase agreement) exceeded $85 per barrel (all such payments for the 12 months in 2023, the “Contingent Consideration”). The Cash Consideration was paid upon the closing of the Initial Advance Acquisition and was funded by a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s reserves-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”). In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company paid Contingent Consideration of $15.0 million, as the average oil price for the months of September and October 2023 exceeded $85 per barrel.
On December 1, 2023, the Company acquired additional interests from affiliates of EnCap Investments L.P., including overriding royalty interests and royalty interests in certain oil and natural gas properties located primarily in Lea County, New Mexico, most of which were included in the Initial Advance Acquisition (the “Advance Royalty Acquisition”). The Advance Royalty Acquisition had an effective date of October 1, 2023 and an aggregate purchase price of approximately $81.0 million (which amount is subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments), and was funded by cash on hand.

Between June 30, 2024 and July 23, 2024, San Mateo repaid $26.0 million of borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility.
Credit Agreements
MRC Energy Company
The borrowing base under the Credit Agreement is determined semi-annually as of May 1 and November 1 by the lenders based primarily on the estimated value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves at December 31 and June 30 of each year, respectively. The Company and the lenders may each request an unscheduled redetermination of the borrowing base once between scheduled redetermination dates. On March 22, 2024, the Company and its lenders entered into an amendment to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which amended the Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) reaffirm the borrowing base at $2.50 billion, (ii) increase the elected borrowing commitments from $1.325 billion to $1.50 billion, (iii) increase the maximum facility amount from $2.00 billion to $3.50 billion, (iv) extend the maturity date from October 31, 2026 to March 22, 2029, (v) appoint PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent thereunder and (vi) add five new banks to the lending group. This March 2024 reaffirmation of the borrowing base constituted the regularly scheduled May 1 redetermination.
On June 12, 2024, in connection with the Ameredev Acquisition, the Company entered into a commitment letter with PNC Capital Markets LLC and PNC Bank, National Association, which commitment letter provides commitments for an amendment to the Credit Agreement to incorporate an up to $250.0 million term loan and increase the elected commitment from $1.50 billion to $2.25 billion.
The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain (i) a current ratio, which is defined as (x) total consolidated current assets plus the unused availability under the Credit Agreement divided by (y) total consolidated current liabilities less current maturities under the Credit Agreement, of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter and (ii) a debt to EBITDA ratio, which is defined as debt outstanding (net of cash or cash equivalents of up to the greater of (a) $150.0 million and (b) 10% of the elected commitment), divided by a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation, of 3.5 to 1.0 or less. The Company believes that it was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2024.
San Mateo Midstream, LLC
The San Mateo Credit Facility is non-recourse with respect to Matador and its wholly-owned subsidiaries but is guaranteed by San Mateo’s subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of San Mateo’s assets, including real property. The outstanding borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility mature on December 9, 2026, and lender commitments under the facility were $535.0 million at June 30, 2024. The San Mateo Credit Facility includes an accordion feature, which provides for potential increases in lender commitments of up to $735.0 million.
The San Mateo Credit Facility requires San Mateo to maintain a debt to EBITDA ratio, which is defined as total consolidated funded indebtedness outstanding (as defined in the San Mateo Credit Facility) divided by a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation, of 5.0 or less, subject to certain exceptions. The San Mateo Credit Facility also requires San Mateo to maintain an interest coverage ratio, which is defined as a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation divided by San Mateo’s consolidated interest expense for such period, of 2.5 or more. The San Mateo Credit Facility also restricts the ability of San Mateo to distribute cash to its members if San Mateo’s liquidity is less than 10% of the lender commitments under the San Mateo Credit Facility. The Company believes that San Mateo was in compliance with the terms of the San Mateo Credit Facility at June 30, 2024.

NOTE 9 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company measures and reports certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories.
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes those derivative instruments that are valued with industry standard models that consider various inputs, including: (i) quoted forward prices for commodities, (ii) time value of money and (iii) current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the derivative instrument and can be derived from observable data or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data that reflect a company’s own market assumptions.
Financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The following tables summarize the valuation of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with the classifications provided above as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands).

Other Fair Value Measurements
At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying values reported on the interim unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, royalties payable, amounts due to affiliates, advances from joint interest owners and other current liabilities approximated their fair values due to their short-term maturities.
At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the San Mateo Credit Facility approximated their fair value as both are subject to short-term floating interest rates that reflect market rates available to the Company at the time and are classified at Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the 2028 Notes was $508.6 million and $510.9 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices, which represent Level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
At June 30, 2024, the fair value of the 2032 Notes was $900.9 million based on quoted market prices, which represent Level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, lease and well equipment inventory when the market value is determined to be lower than the cost of the inventory and other property and equipment that are reduced to fair value when they are impaired or held for sale. See Note 3 for discussion of the fair value measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of the Q1 2024 Acquisition and the Advance Acquisition.
NOTE 10 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Processing, Transportation and Produced Water Disposal Commitments
Firm Commitments
From time to time, the Company enters into agreements with third parties whereby the Company commits to deliver anticipated natural gas and oil production and produced water from certain portions of its acreage for transportation, gathering, processing, fractionation, sales and disposal. The Company paid approximately $16.3 million and $11.4 million for deliveries under these agreements during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $31.7 million and $22.1 million for deliveries under these agreements during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Certain of these agreements contain minimum volume commitments. If the Company does not meet the minimum volume commitments under these agreements, it will be required to pay certain deficiency fees. If the Company ceased operations in the areas subject to these agreements at June 30, 2024, the total deficiencies required to be paid by the Company under these agreements would be approximately $593.0 million.
San Mateo Commitments
The Company dedicated to San Mateo its current and certain future leasehold interests in the Rustler Breaks asset area and the Wolf portion of the West Texas asset area and acreage in the southern portion of the Arrowhead asset area (the “Greater Stebbins Area”) and the Stateline asset area pursuant to 15-year, fixed-fee oil transportation, oil, natural gas and produced water gathering and produced water disposal agreements. In addition, the Company dedicated to San Mateo its current and certain future leasehold interests in the Rustler Breaks asset area and acreage in the Greater Stebbins Area and Stateline asset area pursuant to 15-year, fixed-fee natural gas processing agreements (collectively with the transportation, gathering and produced water disposal agreements, the “Operational Agreements”).

Second Quarter Highlights
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our total oil equivalent production was 14.6 million BOE, and our average daily oil equivalent production was 160,305 BOE per day, of which 95,488 Bbl per day, or 60%, was oil and 388.9 MMcf per day, or 40%, was natural gas. Our average daily oil production of 95,488 Bbl per day for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased 25% year-over-year from 76,345 Bbl per day for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Our average daily natural gas production of 388.9 MMcf per day for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased 19% year-over-year from 326.0 MMcf per day for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
For the second quarter of 2024, we reported net income attributable to Matador shareholders of $228.8 million, or $1.83 per diluted common share, on a GAAP basis, as compared to net income attributable to Matador shareholders of $164.7 million, or $1.37 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023. For the second quarter of 2024, our Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $578.1 million, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $423.3 million during the second quarter of 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we reported net income attributable to Matador shareholders of $422.5 million, or $3.45 per diluted common share, on a GAAP basis, as compared to net income attributable to Matador shareholders of $327.8 million, or $2.73 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $1.08 billion, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $788.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
For a definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to our net income and net cash provided by operating activities, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” For more information regarding our financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, see “—Results of Operations” below.
Ameredev Acquisition
On June 12, 2024, our wholly-owned subsidiary entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a subsidiary of Ameredev II Parent, LLC (“Ameredev”) from affiliates of EnCap Investments L.P., including certain oil and natural gas producing properties and undeveloped acreage located in Lea County, New Mexico and Loving and Winkler Counties, Texas (the “Ameredev Acquisition”). The Ameredev Acquisition also includes an approximate 19% stake in Piñon Midstream, LLC (“Piñon”), which has midstream assets in southern Lea County, New Mexico. The consideration for the Ameredev Acquisition will consist of a cash payment of $1.905 billion, subject to customary closing adjustments. The consummation of the Ameredev Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval, and is expected to close late in the third quarter of 2024 with an effective date of June 1, 2024.
We estimate the total proved oil and natural gas reserves associated with these properties are approximately 117.7 million BOE (60% oil) at May 31, 2024.
Other highlights of the Ameredev Acquisition include:
•Estimated production in the third quarter of 2024 of 25,000 to 26,000 BOE per day (65% oil);
•Approximately 33,500 net acres (82% held by production, over 99% operated) in the northern Delaware Basin, most of which is located in our Antelope Ridge asset area in southern Lea County, New Mexico and our West Texas asset area in Loving and Winkler Counties, Texas; and
•431 gross (371 net) operated locations (86% working interest) identified for future drilling, including prospective targets throughout the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring formations.
O perations Update
We began 2024 operating seven drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin. We added an eighth operated drilling rig in the first quarter of 2024 and a ninth operated drilling rig late in the second quarter of 2024. Prior to the closing of the Ameredev Acquisition, we expect Ameredev to operate one drilling rig and to continue operations on 13 drilled but uncompleted (“DUC”) wells. Upon the consummation of the Ameredev Acquisition, which we anticipate to occur late in the third quarter of 2024, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval, we expect to continue operating a total of nine drilling rigs for the immediate future on the combined Matador and Ameredev properties covering approximately 192,000 net acres. We have built significant optionality into our drilling program, which should generally allow us to decrease or increase the number of rigs we operate as necessary based on changing commodity prices and other factors.

Table of Contents
Our average daily oil equivalent production in the Delaware Basin for the second quarter of 2024 was 156,100 BOE per day, consisting of 94,700 Bbl of oil per day and 368.3 MMcf of natural gas per day, a 25% increase from 125,000 BOE per day, consisting of 75,600 Bbl of oil per day and 296.1 MMcf of natural gas per day, in the second quarter of 2023. These increases were primarily attributable to the Advance Acquisition and the increased number of wells being operated by us and other operators (where we own a working interest). The Delaware Basin contributed approximately 99% of our daily oil production and approximately 95% of our daily natural gas production in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to approximately 99% of our daily oil production and approximately 91% of our daily natural gas production in the second quarter of 2023.
In March 2024, we completed our natural gas pipeline connections between Pronto and San Mateo and between Pronto and Matador’s acreage obtained in the Advance Acquisition. These connector pipelines provide further flow assurance and options for Matador and third-party customer natural gas.
At June 30, 2024, Pronto’s midstream system included a cryogenic natural gas processing plant with a designed inlet processing capacity of 60 MMcf per day (the “Marlan Processing Plant”), four compressor stations and approximately 110 miles of natural gas gathering pipelines in Eddy and Lea Counties, New Mexico, spanning from the northeastern portion of the Arrowhead asset area into the Ranger asset area. Pronto has begun construction on an additional natural gas processing plant with a designed inlet processing capacity of 200 MMcf per day, including a nitrogen rejection unit and additional related facilities, to expand the Marlan Processing Plant.
2024 Capital Expenditure Budget
At July 23, 2024, our estimated drilling, completing and equipping (“D/C/E”) capital expenditures for 2024 remained $1.10 to $1.30 billion, which does not include any D/C/E capital expenditures on acreage to be acquired in the Ameredev Acquisition. At July 23, 2024, our estimated midstream capital expenditures for 2024 remained $200.0 to $250.0 million, which includes our proportionate share of San Mateo’s estimated 2024 capital expenditures as well as the estimated 2024 capital expenditures for other wholly-owned midstream projects, including projects completed by Pronto. The midstream capital expenditures do not include any capital expenditures associated with the approximate 19% stake in Piñon to be acquired in the Ameredev Acquisition. The midstream capital expenditure budget includes 100% of the costs associated with the Marlan Processing Plant expansion, although at July 23, 2024 we were continuing to evaluate potential partners in Pronto that would share in these capital expenditures and strategic opportunities.
Capital Resources Update
In February and April 2024, Matador’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.20 per share of common stock. On July 18, 2024, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share of common stock payable on September 5, 2024 to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2024.
On March 22, 2024, we and our lenders entered into an amendment to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which amended our reserves-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) to, among other things: (i) reaffirm the borrowing base at $2.50 billion, (ii) increase the elected borrowing commitments from $1.325 billion to $1.50 billion, (iii) increase the maximum facility amount from $2.00 billion to $3.50 billion, (iv) extend the maturity date from October 31, 2026 to March 22, 2029, (v) appoint PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent thereunder and (vi) add five new banks to the lending group. This March 2024 reaffirmation of the borrowing base constituted the regularly scheduled May 1 redetermination.
On March 28, 2024, we completed an underwritten public offering of 5,250,000 shares of our common stock (the “2024 Equity Offering”). After deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $342.1 million. The net proceeds from the 2024 Equity Offering were used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions and the repayment of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement.
On April 2 and April 4, 2024, we completed the repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of approximately $556.3 million of the $699.2 million of outstanding senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) as part of our cash tender offer announced on March 26, 2024 (the “2026 Notes Tender Offer”). On April 2, 2024, we exercised our optional right, under the indenture governing the 2026 Notes, to redeem the remaining aggregate principal amount of approximately $142.9 million of 2026 Notes outstanding on September 15, 2024 (the “2026 Notes Redemption”) and, in connection therewith, to satisfy and discharge the Company’s obligations under such indenture with respect to the 2026 Notes.

Table of Contents
On April 2, 2024, we completed the sale of $900.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.50% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”). We used the net proceeds from the sale of the 2032 Notes (the “2032 Notes Offering”) of approximately $885.0 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, to fund the 2026 Notes Tender Offer and 2026 Notes Redemption and for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions and the repayment of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement.
On June 12, 2024, in connection with the Ameredev Acquisition, we entered into a commitment letter with PNC Capital Markets LLC and PNC Bank, National Association, which commitment letter provides commitments for an amendment to the Credit Agreement to incorporate an up to $250.0 million term loan and increase the elected commitment from $1.50 billion to $2.25 billion.
At June 30, 2024, we had (i) $95.0 million in borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement, (ii) approximately $52.8 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (iii) $500.0 million of outstanding 6.875% senior notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and (iv) $900.0 million of outstanding 2032 Notes. Between June 30, 2024 and July 23, 2024, we repaid all $95.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement.
At June 30, 2024, San Mateo had $512.0 million in borrowings outstanding under San Mateo’s revolving credit facility (the “San Mateo Credit Facility”) and approximately $9.0 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the San Mateo Credit Facility. Between June 30, 2024 and July 23, 2024, San Mateo repaid $26.0 million of borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
Oil and natural gas revenues. Our oil and natural gas revenues increased $188.4 million, or 32%, to $776.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $587.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Our oil revenues increased $195.2 million, or 38%, to $705.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $510.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in oil revenues resulted from a 25% increase in our oil production to 8.7 million Bbl for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 6.9 million Bbl for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and an 11% increase in the weighted average oil price realized for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $81.20 per Bbl, as compared to $73.46 per Bbl for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Our natural gas revenues decreased $6.8 million, or 9%, to $70.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $77.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in natural gas revenues resulted from a 23% decrease in the weighted average natural gas price realized for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $2.00 per Mcf, as compared to a weighted average natural gas price of $2.61 per Mcf realized for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which was partially offset by a 20% increase in our natural gas production to 35.4 Bcf for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 29.7 Bcf for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Third-party midstream services revenues. Our third-party midstream services revenues increased $2.6 million, or 9%, to $32.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $30.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Third-party midstream services revenues are those revenues from midstream operations related to third parties, including working interest owners in our operated wells. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in our third-party produced water disposal revenues to $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which was partially offset by a decrease in our third-party natural gas gathering and processing revenues to $15.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $17.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Sales of purchased natural gas. Our sales of purchased natural gas increased $14.4 million, or 45%, to $46.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $31.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily the result of a 63% increase in natural gas volumes sold, which was partially offset by an 11% decrease in natural gas price realized. Sales of purchased natural gas reflect those natural gas purchase transactions that we periodically enter into with third parties whereby we purchase natural gas and (i) subsequently sell the natural gas to other purchasers or (ii) process the natural gas at either Pronto’s or San Mateo’s cryogenic natural gas processing plant and subsequently sell the residue natural gas and NGLs to other purchasers. These revenues, and the expenses related to these transactions included in “Purchased natural gas,” are presented on a gross basis in our interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.
Realized gain (loss) on derivatives. Our realized gain on derivatives was $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to a realized loss of $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. We realized a net gain of $3.8 million related to our natural gas basis differential swap contracts for the three months ended June 30, 2024, resulting primarily from natural gas basis differentials that were below the fixed prices of certain of our natural gas basis differential swap contracts. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we realized a net loss of $3.1 million related to our natural gas basis differential swap contracts, resulting primarily from natural gas basis differentials that were above the fixed prices of certain of our natural gas basis differential swap contracts. We realized an average gain on our natural gas derivatives of approximately $0.11 per Mcf produced during the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to an average loss of approximately $0.10 per Mcf produced during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Unrealized loss on derivatives. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the aggregate net fair value of our open oil costless collar and natural gas basis differential swap contracts changed to a net liability of $7.1 million from a net asset of $4.7 million at March 31, 2024, resulting in an unrealized loss on derivatives of $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the aggregate net fair value of our open natural gas basis differential swap contracts changed to a net liability of $11.8 million from a net liability of $3.1 million at March 31, 2023, resulting in an unrealized loss on derivatives of $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Oil and natural gas revenues. Our oil and natural gas revenues increased $389.0 million, or 36%, to $1.48 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $1.09 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our oil revenues increased $391.9 million, or 43%, to $1.30 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $912.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase in oil revenues resulted from a 34% increase in our oil production to 16.4 million Bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 12.3 million Bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and a 7% increase in the weighted average oil price realized for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $79.50 per Bbl, as compared to $74.45 per Bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our natural gas revenues decreased by $2.9 million, or 2%, to $175.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $178.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in natural gas revenues resulted from a 23% decrease in the weighted average natural gas price realized for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $2.48 per Mcf, as compared to a weighted average natural gas price of $3.22 per Mcf for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was partially offset by a 28% increase in our natural gas production to 70.9 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 55.4 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Third-party midstream services revenues. Our third-party midstream services revenues increased $8.4 million, or 15%, to $65.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $56.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in our third-party produced water disposal revenues to $27.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $20.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and an increase in our oil transportation revenues to $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Sales of purchased natural gas. Our sales of purchased natural gas increased $29.6 million, or 45%, to $95.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $66.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was the result of a 48% increase in natural gas volumes sold, which was partially offset by a 2% decrease in natural gas price realized.
Realized gain (loss) on derivatives. Our realized gain on derivatives was $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to a realized gain of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. We realized a net gain of $4.0 million related to our natural gas basis differential swap contracts for the six months ended June 30, 2024, resulting primarily from natural gas basis differentials that were below the fixed prices of our natural gas basis differential swap contracts. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we realized a net gain of $0.5 million related to our natural gas costless collar and natural gas basis differential swap contracts, resulting primarily from natural gas prices that were below the floor prices of certain of our natural gas costless collar contracts, offset by natural gas prices that were above the fixed prices of our natural gas basis differential swap contracts. We realized an average gain on our natural gas derivatives of approximately $0.06 per Mcf produced during the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to an average gain of approximately $0.01 per Mcf produced during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Unrealized loss on derivatives. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the aggregate net fair value of our open oil costless collar and natural gas basis differential swap contracts changed to a net liability of $7.1 million from a net asset of $2.7 million at December 31, 2023, resulting in an unrealized loss on derivatives of $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the aggregate net fair value of our open natural gas costless collar and natural gas basis differential swap contracts changed to a net liability of $11.8 million from a net asset of $3.9 million at December 31, 2022, resulting in an unrealized loss on derivatives of $15.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
Production taxes, transportation and processing. Our production taxes and transportation and processing expenses increased $14.8 million, or 24%, to $76.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $62.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to a $13.9 million increase in production taxes to $60.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $46.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to the increase in oil and natural gas revenues between the two periods. On a unit-of-production basis, our production taxes and transportation and processing expenses increased 1% to $5.27 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $5.21 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

being operated by us and other operators (where we own a working interest) and to operating cost inflation for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Plant and other midstream services operating. Our plant and other midstream services operating expenses increased $6.6 million, or 22%, to $37.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $30.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to increased throughput volumes from Matador and other San Mateo and Pronto customers, which resulted in (i) increased expenses associated with our expanded pipeline operations of $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and (ii) increased expenses associated with our commercial produced water disposal operations of $16.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $13.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Depletion, depreciation and amortization. Our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses increased $48.4 million, or 27%, to $225.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $177.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the Advance Acquisition and a 23% increase in our total oil equivalent production for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. On a unit-of-production basis, our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses increased 4% to $15.49 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $14.93 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the Advance Acquisition.
General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses increased $1.2 million, or 4%, to $27.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $26.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by 15% on a unit-of-production basis to $1.91 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $2.25 per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of a 23% increase in our total oil equivalent production between the two periods.
Interest expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred total interest expense of $45.3 million. We capitalized $9.3 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and expensed the remaining $36.0 million to operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred total interest expense of $39.5 million. We capitalized $5.3 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and expensed the remaining $34.2 million to operations. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in our average debt outstanding between the two periods. In April 2024, we completed the 2026 Notes Tender Offer, the 2026 Notes Redemption and the 2032 Notes Offering, resulting in a net increase in our total senior notes outstanding to $1.40 billion at June 30, 2024 as compared to $1.20 billion at June 30, 2023. In connection with the 2026 Notes Tender Offer and 2026 Notes Redemption, we also incurred a loss of approximately $3.0 million included in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Income tax provision (benefit). We recorded a current income tax provision of $30.1 million and a deferred income tax provision of $47.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. We recorded a current income tax benefit of $4.9 million and a deferred income tax provision of $62.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Our effective income tax rate of 25% and 26% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to permanent differences between book and taxable income and state taxes, primarily in New Mexico.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Production taxes, transportation and processing. Our production taxes, transportation and processing expenses increased $29.5 million, or 25%, to $147.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $117.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to a $27.8 million increase in production taxes to $114.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $86.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to the increase in oil and natural gas revenues between the two periods. On a unit-of-production basis, our production taxes, transportation and processing expenses decreased 5% to $5.21 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $5.47 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the transportation and processing expense per BOE that resulted from the mix of revenue contracts, including from San Mateo and Pronto, between the two periods.
Lease operating expenses. Our lease operating expenses increased $49.9 million, or 47%, to $155.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $105.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our lease operating expenses per unit of production increased 12% to $5.50 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $4.91 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2023. These increases were primarily attributable to the increased number of wells being operated by us, including 127 wells from the Advance Acquisition, and operated by other operators (where we own a working interest) and to operating cost inflation for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Plant and other midstream services operating. Our plant and other midstream services operating expenses increased $15.2 million, or 25%, to $76.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $61.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to increased throughput volumes from Matador and other San Mateo and Pronto customers, which resulted in (i) increased expenses associated with our expanded pipeline operations of $29.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $20.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and (ii) increased expenses associated with our commercial produced water disposal operations of $31.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $25.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Depletion, depreciation and amortization. Our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses increased $134.4 million, or 44%, to $438.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $303.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the Advance Acquisition and a 31% increase in our total oil equivalent production for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. On a unit-of-production basis, our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses increased 10% to $15.53 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $14.14 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the Advance Acquisition.
General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses increased $8.4 million, or 17%, to $57.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $49.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of increased payroll for our existing employees as well as with additional employees joining Matador to support our increased land, geoscience, drilling, completion, production, midstream and administration functions as a result of our continued growth. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by 11% on a unit-of-production basis to $2.04 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $2.29 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the 31% increase in our total oil equivalent production between the two periods.
Interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred total interest expense of approximately $90.7 million. We capitalized approximately $15.2 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and expensed the remaining $75.5 million to operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred total interest expense of approximately $59.1 million. We capitalized approximately $8.7 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and expensed the remaining $50.4 million to operations. The increase in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in our average debt outstanding between the two periods. In April 2024, we completed the 2026 Notes Tender Offer, the 2026 Notes Redemption and the 2032 Notes Offering, resulting in a net increase in our total senior notes outstanding to $1.40 billion at June 30, 2024 as compared to $1.20 billion at June 30, 2023. In connection with the 2026 Notes Tender Offer, 2026 Notes Redemption and the amendment of our Credit Agreement in March 2024, we also incurred a loss of approximately $5.6 million included in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Income tax provision. We recorded a current income tax provision of $47.4 million and a deferred income tax provision of $97.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. We recorded no current income tax provision and a deferred income tax provision of $114.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our effective income tax rate of 26% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to permanent differences between book and taxable income and state taxes, primarily in New Mexico.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary use of capital has been, and we expect will continue to be during the remainder of 2024 and for the foreseeable future, for the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties and for midstream investments. In June 2024, we announced the Ameredev Acquisition. We intend to fund the Ameredev Acquisition with a combination of cash on hand, free cash flow prior to closing and borrowings under our Credit Agreement, under which we have received an additional commitment of up to $1.00 billion in connection with this transaction. Excluding the Ameredev Acquisition and any future significant acquisitions, we expect to fund our 2024 capital expenditures through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flows and performance incentives paid to us by Five Point Energy, LLC or its affiliates. If capital expenditures were to exceed our operating cash flows during the remainder of 2024, we expect to fund any such excess capital expenditures, including for significant acquisitions, through borrowings under the Credit Agreement or the San Mateo Credit Facility (assuming availability under such facilities) or through other capital sources, including borrowings under expanded or additional credit arrangements, the sale or joint venture of midstream assets, oil and natural gas producing assets, leasehold interests or mineral interests and potential issuances of equity, debt or convertible securities, none of which may be available on satisfactory terms or at all. Our future success in growing proved reserves and production will be highly dependent on our ability to generate operating cash flows and access outside sources of capital.
In February and April 2024, our Board declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.20 per share of common stock. On July 18, 2024, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share of common stock payable on September 5, 2024 to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2024.

On March 22, 2024, we and our lenders entered into an amendment to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which amended our Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) reaffirm the borrowing base at $2.50 billion, (ii) increase the elected borrowing commitments from $1.325 billion to $1.50 billion, (iii) increase the maximum facility amount from $2.00 billion to $3.50 billion, (iv) extend the maturity date from October 31, 2026 to March 22, 2029, (v) appoint PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent thereunder and (vi) add five new banks to the lending group. This March 2024 reaffirmation of the borrowing base constituted the regularly scheduled May 1 redetermination.
On June 12, 2024, in connection with the Ameredev Acquisition, we entered into a commitment letter with PNC Capital Markets LLC and PNC Bank, National Association, which commitment letter provides commitments for an amendment to the Credit Agreement to incorporate an up to $250.0 million term loan and increase the elected commitment from $1.50 billion to $2.25 billion.
The Credit Agreement requires us to maintain (i) a current ratio, which is defined as (x) total consolidated current assets plus the unused availability under the Credit Agreement divided by (y) total consolidated current liabilities less current maturities under the Credit Agreement, of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter and (ii) a debt to EBITDA ratio, which is defined as debt outstanding (net of cash or cash equivalents of up to the greater of (a) $150.0 million and (b) 10% of the elected commitment), divided by a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation, of 3.5 to 1.0 or less. We believe that we were in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2024.
On March 28, 2024, we completed the 2024 Equity Offering. After deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $342.1 million. The net proceeds from the 2024 Equity Offering were used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions and the repayment of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement.
On April 2, 2024, we completed the 2032 Notes Offering. We used the net proceeds from the 2032 Notes Offering of approximately $885.0 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, to fund the 2026 Notes Tender Offer and 2026 Notes Redemption and for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions and the repayment of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement.
At June 30, 2024, we had cash totaling $15.2 million and restricted cash totaling $48.7 million, which was primarily associated with San Mateo. By contractual agreement, the cash in the accounts held by our less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries is not to be commingled with our other cash and is to be used only to fund the capital expenditures and operations of these less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries.
At June 30, 2024, we had (i) $500.0 million of outstanding 2028 Notes, (ii) $900.0 million of outstanding 2032 Notes, (iii) $95.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement and (iv) approximately $52.8 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Between June 30, 2024 and July 23, 2024, we repaid all $95.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement.
At June 30, 2024, San Mateo had $512.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the San Mateo Credit Facility and approximately $9.0 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the San Mateo Credit Facility. Between June 30, 2024 and July 23, 2024, San Mateo repaid $26.0 million of borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility. The outstanding borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility mature on December 9, 2026, and lender commitments under the facility were $535.0 million at June 30, 2024. The San Mateo Credit Facility includes an accordion feature, which provides for potential increases in lender commitments of up to $735.0 million. The San Mateo Credit Facility is non-recourse with respect to Matador and its wholly-owned subsidiaries but is guaranteed by San Mateo’s subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of San Mateo’s assets, including real property. The San Mateo Credit Facility requires San Mateo to maintain a debt to EBITDA ratio, which is defined as total consolidated funded indebtedness outstanding (as defined in the San Mateo Credit Facility) divided by a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation, of 5.00 or less, subject to certain exceptions. The San Mateo Credit Facility also requires San Mateo to maintain an interest coverage ratio, which is defined as a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation divided by San Mateo’s consolidated interest expense for such period, of 2.50 or more. The San Mateo Credit Facility also restricts the ability of San Mateo to distribute cash to its members if San Mateo’s liquidity is less than 10% of the lender commitments under the San Mateo Credit Facility. We believe that San Mateo was in compliance with the terms of the San Mateo Credit Facility at June 30, 2024.

We expect that development of our Delaware Basin assets will be the primary focus of our operations and capital expenditures for the remainder of 2024. We began 2024 operating seven drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin. We added an eighth operated drilling rig in the first quarter of 2024 and a ninth operated drilling rig late in the second quarter of 2024. Prior to the closing of the Ameredev Acquisition, we expect Ameredev to operate one drilling rig and to continue operations on 13 DUC wells. Upon the consummation of the Ameredev Acquisition, which we anticipate to occur late in the third quarter of 2024, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval, we expect to continue operating a total of nine drilling rigs for the immediate future on the combined Matador and Ameredev properties covering approximately 192,000 net acres. We have built significant optionality into our drilling program, which should generally allow us to decrease or increase the number of rigs we operate as necessary based on changing commodity prices and other factors. At July 23, 2024, our estimated D/C/E capital expenditures for 2024 are $1.10 to $1.30 billion, which does not include any D/C/E capital expenditures on acreage to be acquired in the Ameredev Acquisition, and our estimated midstream capital expenditures for 2024 are $200.0 to $250.0 million. The anticipated midstream capital expenditures include our proportionate share of San Mateo’s estimated 2024 capital expenditures as well as the estimated 2024 capital expenditures for other wholly-owned midstream projects, including projects completed by Pronto. The midstream capital expenditures do not include any capital expenditures associated with the approximate 19% stake in Piñon to be acquired in the Ameredev Acquisition. The midstream capital budget includes 100% of the costs associated with the Marlan Processing Plant expansion noted above, although, at July 23, 2024, we were continuing to evaluate potential partners in Pronto that would share in these capital expenditures and strategic opportunities. Substantially all of these 2024 estimated capital expenditures are expected to be allocated to (i) the further delineation and development of our leasehold position, (ii) the construction, installation and maintenance of midstream assets and (iii) our participation in certain non-operated well opportunities in the Delaware Basin, South Texas and Haynesville shale. Our 2024 Delaware Basin operated drilling program is expected to focus on the continued development of our various asset areas throughout the Delaware Basin, with a continued emphasis on drilling and completing a high percentage of longer horizontal wells in 2024, including 99% with anticipated completed lateral lengths of one mile or greater.
As we have done in recent years, we may divest portions of our non-core assets, particularly in the Eagle Ford shale in South Texas and the Haynesville shale in Northwest Louisiana, as well as consider monetizing other assets, such as certain midstream assets and mineral and royalty interests, as value-creating opportunities arise. In addition, during 2024, we intend to continue evaluating the opportunistic acquisition of producing properties, acreage and mineral interests and midstream assets, principally in the Delaware Basin. These monetizations, divestitures and expenditures are opportunity-specific, and purchase price multiples and per-acre prices can vary significantly based on the asset or prospect. As a result, it is difficult to estimate these 2024 monetizations, divestitures and capital expenditures with any degree of certainty; therefore, we have not provided estimated proceeds related to monetizations or divestitures or estimated capital expenditures related to acquiring producing properties, acreage and mineral interests and midstream assets for 2024.
Our 2024 capital expenditures may be adjusted as business conditions warrant, and the amount, timing and allocation of such expenditures is largely discretionary and within our control. The aggregate amount of capital we will expend may fluctuate materially based on market conditions, the actual costs to drill, complete and place on production operated or non-operated wells, our drilling results, the actual costs and scope of our midstream activities, the ability of our joint venture partners to meet their capital obligations, other opportunities that may become available to us and our ability to obtain capital. When oil or natural gas prices decline, or costs increase significantly, we have the flexibility to defer a significant portion of our capital expenditures until later periods to conserve cash or to focus on projects that we believe have the highest expected returns and potential to generate near-term cash flows. We routinely monitor and adjust our capital expenditures in response to changes in prices, availability of financing, drilling, completion and acquisition costs, industry conditions, the timing of regulatory approvals, the availability of rigs, success or lack of success in our exploration and development activities, contractual obligations, drilling plans for properties we do not operate and other factors both within and outside our control.
Exploration and development activities are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause these activities to be less successful than we anticipate. A significant portion of our anticipated cash flows from operations for the remainder of 2024 is expected to come from producing wells and development activities on currently proved properties in the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin, the Eagle Ford shale in South Texas and the Haynesville shale in Northwest Louisiana. Our existing operated and non-operated wells may not produce at the levels we are forecasting or may be temporarily shut in or restricted due to low commodity prices, and our exploration and development activities in these areas may not be as successful as we anticipate. Additionally, our anticipated cash flows from operations are based upon current expectations of oil and natural gas prices for 2024 and the hedges we currently have in place. For further discussion of our expectations of such commodity prices, see “—General Outlook and Trends” below. At times, we use commodity derivative financial instruments to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in oil, natural gas and NGL prices and to partially offset reductions in our cash flows from operations resulting from declines in commodity prices. See Note 8 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a summary of our open derivative financial instruments.

__________________
(1)Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to our net income and net cash provided by operating activities, see “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $273.0 million to $1.06 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $788.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Excluding changes in operating assets and liabilities, net cash provided by operating activities increased $239.0 million to $1.02 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $784.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to higher oil and natural gas production and higher realized oil prices for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by lower realized natural gas prices. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities between the two periods resulted in a net increase of approximately $34.0 million in net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased $1.12 billion to $1.12 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $2.24 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to $1.61 billion in expenditures related to the Advance Acquisition in the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease was partially offset by (i) an increase between the periods of $200.2 million in expenditures related to the acquisition of oil and natural gas properties, (ii) an increase between the periods of $124.3 million in midstream capital expenditures, (iii) an increase between the periods of $95.3 million in expenditures related to the Ameredev Acquisition and (iv) an increase between the periods of $72.2 million in D/C/E capital expenditures primarily attributable to our operated and non-operated drilling, completion and equipping activities in the Delaware Basin.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $952.5 million to $16.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $968.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, our primary sources of cash from financing activities included proceeds from the 2032 Notes Offering of $900.0 million and proceeds from the 2024 Equity Offering of $344.7 million. These increases were partially offset by (i) the repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of approximately $699.2 million of 2026 Notes, (ii) net repayments under the Credit Agreement of $405.0 million, (iii) dividends paid of $48.7 million, (iv) net distributions related to San Mateo of $20.8 million and (v) payment of taxes related to stock-based compensation of $14.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our primary sources of cash from financing activities included proceeds from the issuance of the 2028 Notes of $494.8 million and net borrowings under the Credit Agreement of $560.0 million, partially offset by dividends of $35.7 million and payment of taxes related to stock-based compensation of $22.8 million.
See Note 5 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a summary of our debt, including the Credit Agreement, the San Mateo Credit Facility, the 2028 Notes and the 2032 Notes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization, accretion of asset retirement obligations, property impairments, unrealized derivative gains and losses, non-recurring transaction costs for certain acquisitions, certain other non-cash items and non-cash stock-based compensation expense and net gain or loss on asset sales and impairment. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.

Table of Contents
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is necessary because it allows us to evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income in calculating Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which certain assets were acquired.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as a primary indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components of understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure. Our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.
The following table presents our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP financial measures of net income and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively.

partially offset by lower realized natural gas prices for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. These increases were partially offset by increased depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses of $225.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $177.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and an income tax provision of $78.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to an income tax provision of $57.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net income attributable to Matador shareholders increased $94.7 million to $422.5 million, as compared to net income attributable to Matador shareholders of $327.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase in net income attributable to Matador shareholders primarily resulted from higher oil and natural gas production and higher realized oil prices, partially offset by lower realized natural gas prices, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. These increases were partially offset by increased depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses of $438.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $303.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, increased interest expense of $75.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $50.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and an income tax provision of $144.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $114.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased $154.8 million to $578.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $423.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to higher oil and natural gas production and higher realized oil prices, partially offset by lower natural gas prices, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased $295.0 million to $1.08 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $788.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase is primarily attributable to higher oil and natural gas production and higher realized oil prices, partially offset by lower natural gas prices, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
From time to time, we enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give rise to material off-balance sheet obligations. As of June 30, 2024, the material off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that we have entered into include (i) non-operated drilling commitments, (ii) firm gathering, transportation, processing, fractionation, sales and disposal commitments and (iii) contractual obligations for which the ultimate settlement amounts are not fixed and determinable, such as derivative contracts that are sensitive to future changes in commodity prices or interest rates, gathering, treating, transportation and disposal commitments on uncertain volumes of future throughput, open delivery commitments and indemnification obligations following certain divestitures. Other than the off-balance sheet arrangements described above, we have no transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are reasonably likely to materially affect our liquidity or availability of or requirements for capital resources. See “—Obligations and Commitments” below and Note 10 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for more information regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements.

(1)The amounts included in the table above represent principal maturities only. At June 30, 2024, we had $95.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement and approximately $52.8 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement matures March 22, 2029. At June 30, 2024, San Mateo had $512.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the San Mateo Credit Facility and approximately $9.0 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the San Mateo Credit Facility. The San Mateo Credit Facility matures December 9, 2026. Assuming the amounts outstanding and interest rates of 7.18% and 7.69%, respectively, for the Credit Agreement and the San Mateo Credit Facility at June 30, 2024, the interest expense for such facilities is expected to be approximately $6.9 million and $39.9 million, respectively, each year until maturity.

General Outlook and Trends
Our business success and financial results are dependent on many factors beyond our control, such as economic, political and regulatory developments, as well as competition from other sources of energy. For example, the results of the 2024 presidential election and any potential political uncertainty in the United States may alter our current regulatory framework and impact our business and the oil and gas industry generally. Commodity price volatility, in particular, is a significant risk to our business, cash flows and results of operations. Commodity prices are affected by changes in market supply and demand, which are impacted by overall economic activity, ongoing military conflicts, political instability, particularly in China or the Middle East, the actions of Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia and certain other oil-exporting countries (“OPEC+”), weather, pipeline capacity constraints, inventory storage levels, oil and natural gas price differentials and other factors.
The prices we receive for oil, natural gas and NGLs heavily influence our revenues, profitability, cash flow available for capital expenditures, the repayment of debt and the payment of cash dividends, if any, access to capital, borrowing capacity under our Credit Agreement and future rate of growth. Oil, natural gas and NGL prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in supply and demand. Historically, the markets for oil, natural gas and NGLs have been volatile, and these markets will likely continue to be volatile in the future. Declines in oil, natural gas or NGL prices not only reduce our revenues, but could also reduce the amount of oil, natural gas and NGLs we can produce economically and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and reserves and our ability to comply with the financial covenants under our Credit Agreement. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Financial Condition—Our success is dependent on the prices of oil, natural gas and NGLs. Low oil, natural gas and NGL prices and the continued volatility in these prices may adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to meet our capital expenditure requirements and financial obligations” in the Annual Report.
Oil prices were higher in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, oil prices averaged $80.66 per Bbl, ranging from a high of $86.91 per Bbl in early April to a low of $73.25 per Bbl in early June, based upon the West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) oil futures contract price for the earliest delivery date. Oil prices averaged $73.56 per Bbl for the three months ended June 30, 2023. We realized a weighted average oil price of $81.20 per Bbl (with no realized gains or losses from oil derivatives) for our oil production for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $73.46 per Bbl (with no realized gains or losses from oil derivatives) for our oil production for the three months ended June 30, 2023. At July 23, 2024, the WTI oil futures contract for the earliest delivery date had decreased from the average price for the second quarter of 2024 of $80.66 per Bbl, settling at $76.96 per Bbl, which was a decrease as compared to $77.07 per Bbl at July 21, 2023.
Natural gas prices were lower in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, natural gas prices averaged $2.27 per MMBtu, ranging from a low of $1.61 per MMBtu in late-April to a high of $3.13 per MMBtu in mid-June, based upon the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas futures contract price for the earliest delivery date. Natural gas prices averaged $2.33 per MMBtu for the three months ended June 30, 2023. We report production volumes in two streams, oil and natural gas (which includes both dry gas and NGLs). Waha prices were also lower for the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023, which contributed to lower realized weighted average natural gas prices for the second quarter of 2024. We realized a weighted average natural gas price of $2.00 per Mcf ($2.11 per Mcf including realized gains from natural gas derivatives) for our natural gas production (including revenues attributable to NGLs) for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $2.61 per Mcf ($2.51 per Mcf including realized gains from natural gas derivatives) for our natural gas production (including revenues attributable to NGLs) for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Certain volumes of our natural gas production are sold at prices established at the beginning of each month by the various markets where we sell our natural gas production, and certain volumes of our natural gas production are sold at daily market prices. At July 23, 2024, the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas futures contract price for the earliest delivery date had decreased from the average price for the second quarter of 2024 of $2.27 per MMBtu, to $2.19 per MMBtu, which was a decrease as compared to $2.71 per MMBtu at July 21, 2023.
The prices we receive for oil and natural gas production often reflect a discount to the relevant benchmark prices, such as the WTI oil price or the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas price. The difference between the benchmark price and the price we receive is called a differential. At June 30, 2024, most of our oil production from the Delaware Basin was sold based on prices established in Midland, Texas, and a significant portion of our natural gas production from the Delaware Basin was sold based on Houston Ship Channel pricing, while the remainder of our Delaware Basin natural gas production was sold primarily based on prices established at the Waha hub in far West Texas.
The Midland-Cushing (Oklahoma) oil price differential has been highly volatile in recent years. At July 23, 2024, this oil price differential was positive at approximately +$0.70 per Bbl. At July 23, 2024, we had no derivative contracts in place to mitigate our exposure to this Midland-Cushing (Oklahoma) oil price differential for 2024.

Certain volumes of our Delaware Basin natural gas production are exposed to the Waha-Henry Hub basis differential, which has also been highly volatile in recent years. Concerns about natural gas pipeline takeaway capacity out of the Delaware Basin have increased, particularly beginning in the latter half of 2022. As a result, the Waha-Henry Hub basis differential began to widen. The Waha-Henry Hub basis differential averaged ($1.95) per MMBtu for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Between June 30, 2024 and July 23, 2024, this natural gas price differential remained wide at approximately ($1.70) per MMBtu. As a result of low natural gas prices or wide Waha basis differentials, from time to time we or our non-operated partners may elect to temporarily shut in or restrict a portion of our natural gas production. A significant portion of our Delaware Basin natural gas production, however, is sold at Houston Ship Channel pricing and is not exposed to Waha pricing. During 2022 and 2023, we typically realized a narrower differential to natural gas sold at the Waha hub despite higher transportation charges incurred to transport the natural gas to the Gulf Coast. At certain times, we may also sell a portion of our natural gas production into other markets to improve our realized natural gas pricing. Further, approximately 6% of our reported natural gas production for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was attributable to the Haynesville and Eagle Ford shale plays, which are not exposed to Waha pricing. In addition, as a two-stream reporter, most of our natural gas volumes in the Delaware Basin are processed for NGLs, resulting in a further reduction in the reported natural gas volumes exposed to Waha pricing.
From time to time, we use derivative financial instruments to mitigate our exposure to commodity price risk associated with oil, natural gas and NGL prices. Even so, decisions as to whether, at what price and what production volumes to hedge are difficult and depend on market conditions and our forecast of future production and oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and we may not always employ the optimal hedging strategy. This, in turn, may affect the liquidity that can be accessed through the borrowing base under the Credit Agreement and through the capital markets. During the first six months of 2024, we realized a net gain on our natural gas basis differential derivative contracts of approximately $4.0 million, resulting primarily from natural gas basis differentials that were below the fixed prices of certain of our natural gas basis differential swap contracts. At July 23, 2024, we had derivative natural gas basis differential swap contracts in place to mitigate our exposure to the Waha-Henry Hub basis differential for approximately 5.5 Bcf of our anticipated natural gas production for the remainder of 2024 and 11.0 Bcf for 2025.
We have at times experienced pipeline-related interruptions to our oil, natural gas or NGL production or produced water disposal. In certain recent periods, shortages of NGL fractionation capacity were experienced by certain operators in the Delaware Basin. Although we did not encounter such fractionation capacity problems, we can provide no assurances that such problems will not arise. If we do experience any material interruptions with produced water disposal, takeaway capacity or NGL fractionation, our oil and natural gas revenues, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. Should we experience future periods of negative pricing for natural gas, as we did during the second quarter of 2024, we may temporarily shut in certain high gas-oil ratio wells and take other actions to mitigate the impact on our realized natural gas prices and results.
We have at times experienced inflation in the costs of certain oilfield services, including diesel, steel, labor, trucking, sand, personnel and completion costs, among others. Should oil prices remain at their current levels or increase, we may be subject to additional service cost inflation in future periods, which may increase our costs to drill, complete, equip and operate wells. In addition, supply chain disruptions and other inflationary pressures experienced in recent periods throughout the United States and global economy and in the oil and natural gas industry may limit our ability to procure the necessary products and services we need for drilling, completing and producing wells in a timely and cost-effective manner, which could result in reduced margins and delays to our operations and could, in turn, adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our oil and natural gas exploration, development, production, midstream and related operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations. Failure to comply with these laws, rules and regulations can result in substantial monetary penalties or delay or suspension of operations. The regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas industry increases our cost of doing business and affects our profitability. Because these laws, rules and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted and new laws, rules and regulations are proposed or promulgated, we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with the laws, rules and regulations to which we are, or will become, subject. For more information about the Company’s regulatory matters, see “Business—Regulation” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Laws and Regulations” in the Annual Report.
On March 6, 2024, the SEC adopted a new set of rules that require a wide range of climate-related disclosures, including material climate-related risks, information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the registrant’s business, results of operations or financial condition, Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions on a phased-in basis by certain larger registrants when those emissions are material and the filing of an attestation report covering the same, and disclosure of the financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions, including costs and losses. Compliance dates under the final rule are phased in by registrant category. Multiple lawsuits have been filed challenging the SEC’s new climate rules, which have been consolidated and will be heard in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. On April 4, 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the final rules until judicial review is complete.

In accordance with the requirements of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, on January 26, 2024, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) published its proposed rule regarding the waste emissions charge, applicable to excess methane emissions at certain oil and natural gas facilities. Further, on March 8, 2024, the EPA published its final rules imposing new, stricter requirements for methane monitoring, reporting and emissions control at certain oil and natural gas facilities. Finally, on April 10, 2024, the Bureau of Land Management published its final waste prevention rule, which requires operators of oil and gas leases to take reasonable steps to avoid natural gas waste or pay royalties on certain natural gas waste, as well as develop leak detection, repair, and waste minimization plans.
Like other oil and natural gas producing companies, our properties are subject to natural production declines. By their nature, our oil and natural gas wells will experience rapid initial production declines. We attempt to overcome these production declines by drilling to develop and identify additional reserves, by exploring for new sources of reserves and, at times, by acquisitions. During times of severe oil, natural gas and NGL price declines, however, drilling additional oil or natural gas wells may not be economic, and we may find it necessary to reduce capital expenditures and curtail drilling operations in order to preserve liquidity. A significant reduction in capital expenditures and drilling activities could materially impact our production volumes, revenues, reserves, cash flows and the availability under our Credit Agreement. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Financial Condition—Our exploration, development, exploitation and midstream projects require substantial capital expenditures that may exceed our cash flows from operations and potential borrowings, and we may be unable to obtain needed capital on satisfactory terms, which could adversely affect our future growth” in the Annual Report.
We strive to focus our efforts on increasing oil and natural gas reserves and production while controlling costs at a level that is appropriate for long-term operations. Our ability to find and develop sufficient quantities of oil and natural gas reserves at economical costs is critical to our long-term success. Future finding and development costs are subject to changes in the costs of acquiring, drilling and completing our prospects.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the sources and effects of our market risk since December 31, 2023, which are disclosed in Part II, Item 7A of the Annual Report and incorporated herein by reference.
Commodity price exposure. We are exposed to market risk as the prices of oil, natural gas and NGLs fluctuate as a result of changes in supply and demand and other factors. To partially reduce price risk caused by these market fluctuations, we have entered into derivative financial instruments in the past and expect to enter into derivative financial instruments in the future to cover a significant portion of our anticipated future production.
We typically use costless (or zero-cost) collars, three-way collars and/or swap contracts to manage risks related to changes in oil, natural gas and NGL prices. Costless collars provide us with downside price protection through the purchase of a put option that is financed through the sale of a call option. Because the call option proceeds are used to offset the cost of the put option, these arrangements are initially “costless” to us. Three-way costless collars also provide us with downside price protection through the purchase of a put option, but they also allow us to participate in price upside through the purchase of a call option. The purchase of both the put option and call option are financed through the sale of a call option. Because the proceeds from the call option sale are used to offset the cost of the purchased put and call options, these arrangements are also initially “costless” to us. In the case of a costless collar, the put option or options and the call option or options have different fixed price components. When the settlement price is below the price floor established by the collar, we receive from our counterparty an amount equal to the difference between the settlement price and the price floor multiplied by the contract oil, natural gas or NGL volume. When the settlement price is above the price ceiling established by the costless collar, we pay our counterparty an amount equal to the difference between the settlement price and the price ceiling multiplied by the contract oil, natural gas or NGL volume. In a swap contract, a floating price is exchanged for a fixed price over a specified period, providing downside price protection.
We record all derivative financial instruments at fair value. The fair value of our derivative financial instruments is determined using purchase and sale information available for similarly traded securities. At June 30, 2024, Bank of America, PNC Bank, Truist Bank, The Bank of Nova Scotia, Royal Bank of Canada, Comerica Bank and BOKF (or affiliates thereof) were the counterparties for our derivative instruments. We have considered the credit standing of the counterparty in determining the fair value of our derivative financial instruments.
At June 30, 2024, we had various costless collar contracts open and in place to mitigate our exposure to oil price volatility, each with an established price floor and ceiling. At June 30, 2024, we had natural gas basis differential swap contracts open and in place to mitigate our exposure to natural gas price volatility, with a specific term (calculation period), notional quantity (volume hedged) and fixed price.
See Note 8 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a summary of our open derivative financial instruments. Such information is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024 to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed in the reports it files and submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, there were no changes in our internal controls that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to several legal proceedings encountered in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact on us cannot be predicted with certainty, in the opinion of management, it is remote that these legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, there were no material changes regarding the legal proceedings we have disclosed in “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” in the Annual Report.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We are subject to various risks and uncertainties in the course of our business. For a discussion of such risks and uncertainties, please see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors we have disclosed in the Annual Report.
The consummation of the Ameredev Acquisition is subject to a number of conditions that may not be satisfied or completed on a timely basis or at all. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to when or if the Ameredev Acquisition will be completed, and the failure to complete the Ameredev Acquisition could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Although we expect to complete the Ameredev Acquisition late in the third quarter of 2024, there can be no assurances as to the exact timing of the closing or that the Ameredev Acquisition will be completed at all. The consummation of the Ameredev Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions contained in the related securities purchase agreement, including, among others, the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. Such conditions, some of which are beyond our control, may not be satisfied or waived in a timely manner or at all and therefore make the completion and timing of the Ameredev Acquisition uncertain. In addition, the securities purchase agreement contains certain termination rights for both parties, which if exercised will also result in the Ameredev Acquisition not being consummated. Any such termination or any failure to otherwise complete the Ameredev Acquisition could result in various consequences, including, among others: our business being adversely impacted by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the time and resources committed by our management to the Ameredev Acquisition, without realizing any of the benefits of completing the Ameredev Acquisition; being required to pay our legal, accounting and other expenses relating to the Ameredev Acquisition; the market price of our common stock being adversely impacted to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the Ameredev Acquisition will be completed; and negative reactions from the financial markets and customers that may occur if the anticipated benefits of the Ameredev Acquisition are not realized. Such consequences could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Even if the Ameredev Acquisition is completed, we may be unable to successfully integrate Ameredev’s business into our business or achieve the anticipated benefits of the Ameredev Acquisition.
The success of the Ameredev Acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from integrating the assets and operations of Ameredev into our business, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully integrate or otherwise realize the anticipated benefits of the Ameredev Acquisition. Difficulties in integrating Ameredev into our company and our ability to manage the combined company may result in us performing differently than expected, in operational challenges or in the delay or failure to realize anticipated expense-related efficiencies and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Potential difficulties that may be encountered in the integration process include, among others:
•the inability to successfully integrate Ameredev operationally, in a manner that permits us to achieve the full revenue, expected cash flows and cost savings anticipated from the Ameredev Acquisition;
•not realizing anticipated operating synergies; and
•potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses, delays or regulatory conditions associated with the Ameredev Acquisition.
