CIVITAS RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Operations
When we use the terms “Civitas,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” we are referring to Civitas Resources, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires. Civitas is an independent exploration and production company focused on the acquisition, development, and production of oil and associated liquids-rich natural gas primarily in the Denver-Julesburg Basin in Colorado (the “DJ Basin”) and Permian Basin in Texas and New Mexico.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain notes and other financial information included in audited financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of interim financial information, have been included. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The December 31, 2022 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet data has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements contained in our 2022 Form 10-K, but does not include all disclosures, including notes required by GAAP. As such, this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2022 Form 10-K. In connection with the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated events subsequent to the balance sheet date of June 30, 2023, through the filing date of this report. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other future period.
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2022 Form 10-K and are supplemented by the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
There are no accounting standards applicable to the Company that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures that have been issued but not yet adopted by the Company as of June 30, 2023, and through the filing date of this report.
NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
All mergers and acquisitions disclosed are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, we conduct assessments of the net assets acquired and recognized amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair values, while transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisition are expensed as incurred. 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 values of oil and natural gas properties and asset retirement obligations are measured using valuation techniques that convert future cash flows to a single discounted amount. Significant inputs to the valuation of oil and natural gas properties include estimates of reserves, future operating and development costs, future commodity prices, estimated future cash flows, and a market-based weighted-average cost of capital. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by management at the time of the valuation.
Hibernia Acquisition
On June 19, 2023, the Company entered into a membership interest purchase agreement (the “Hibernia Acquisition Agreement”) with Hibernia Energy III Holdings, LLC and Hibernia Energy III-B Holdings, LLC, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding equity ownership interests of Hibernia Energy III, LLC and Hibernia Energy III-B, LLC. In connection with and upon execution of the Hibernia Acquisition Agreement, the Company deposited with an escrow agent a cash deposit equal to 7.5% of the unadjusted Hibernia Purchase Price (as defined below).

All amounts deposited were applied towards the aggregate cash consideration due at the closing of the Hibernia Acquisition.
The preliminary purchase price allocation for the Hibernia Acquisition is not complete as of the date of this report. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, which will not extend beyond the one-year measurement period.
Tap Rock Acquisition
On June 19, 2023, the Company entered into a membership interest purchase agreement (the “Tap Rock Acquisition Agreement”) with Tap Rock Resources Legacy, LLC (“Tap Rock I Legacy”), Tap Rock Resources Intermediate, LLC (“Tap Rock I Intermediate” and, together with Tap Rock I Legacy, the “Tap Rock I Sellers”), Tap Rock Resources II Legacy, LLC (“Tap Rock II Legacy”), Tap Rock Resources II Intermediate, LLC (“Tap Rock II Intermediate” and, together with Tap Rock II Legacy, the “Tap Rock II Sellers”), Tap Rock NM10 Legacy Holdings, LLC (“NM10 Legacy”), and Tap Rock NM10 Holdings Intermediate, LLC (“NM10 Intermediate” and together with NM10 Legacy, the “NM10 Sellers”, and the NM10 Sellers, together with the Tap Rock I Sellers and Tap Rock II Sellers, the “Tap Rock Sellers”), solely in its capacity as “Sellers’ Representative” (as defined therein), Tap Rock I Legacy (the “Tap Rock Sellers’ Representative”), and solely for the limited purposes set forth therein, Tap Rock Resources, LLC, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding equity ownership interests of a Delaware limited liability company to be formed by the Tap Rock I Sellers, Tap Rock Resources II, LLC, and Tap Rock NM10 Holdings, LLC from the Tap Rock I Sellers, the Tap Rock II Sellers and the NM10 Sellers, respectively. In connection with and upon execution of the Tap Rock Acquisition Agreement, the Company deposited with an escrow agent a cash deposit equal to 7.5% of the unadjusted Tap Rock Purchase Price (as defined below).
On August 2, 2023, the Company completed the transactions contemplated by the Tap Rock Acquisition Agreement (the “Tap Rock Acquisition” and, together with the Hibernia Acquisition, the “Acquisitions”) for aggregate consideration of approximately $2.45 billion, which was comprised of (i) $1.50 billion in cash, subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments set forth in the Tap Rock Acquisition Agreement and (ii) 13,538,472 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company valued at approximately $950.0 million, subject to certain customary anti-dilution and purchase price adjustments (as adjusted, the “Tap Rock Purchase Price”).

Bison Acquisition
On March 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of privately held DJ Basin operator Bison Oil & Gas II, LLC for merger consideration of approximately $280.4 million (the “Bison Acquisition”).

NOTE 3 - REVENUE RECOGNITION
Oil and natural gas sales revenue presented within the accompanying statements of operations is reflective of the revenue generated from contracts with customers. Revenue attributable to each identified revenue stream is disaggregated below (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Operating net revenues: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Oil sales | $ | 541,043 |  |  | $ | 778,258 |  |  | $ | 1,001,417 |  |  | $ | 1,327,760 |
Natural gas sales | 45,364 |  |  | 205,840 |  |  | 148,919 |  |  | 319,001 |
Natural gas liquid (“NGL”) sales | 74,119 |  |  | 167,266 |  |  | 166,212 |  |  | 322,413 |
Oil and natural gas sales | $ | 660,526 |  |  | $ | 1,151,364 |  |  | $ | 1,316,548 |  |  | $ | 1,969,174 |

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of produced oil, natural gas, and NGL at the point in time when control of produced oil, natural gas, or NGL volumes transfer to the purchaser, which may differ depending on the applicable contractual terms. The Company considers the transfer of control to have occurred when the purchaser has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the oil, natural gas, or NGL production. Transfer of control dictates the presentation of gathering, transportation, and processing expenses within the accompanying statements of operations. Gathering, transportation, and processing expenses incurred by the Company prior to the transfer of control are recorded gross within the gathering, transportation, and processing line item on the accompanying statements of operations. Conversely, gathering, transportation, and processing expenses incurred by the Company subsequent to the transfer of control are recorded net within the oil and natural gas sales line item on the accompanying statements of operations. Please refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2022 Form 10-K for more information regarding the types of contracts under which oil, natural gas, and NGL sales revenue is generated.
The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered and control is transferred to the purchaser. However, settlement statements and payment may not be received for 30 to 60 days after the date production is delivered and control is transferred. Until such time settlement statements and payment are received, the Company records a revenue accrual based on, amongst other factors, an estimate of the volumes delivered at estimated prices as determined by the applicable contractual terms. The Company records the differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for product sales in the month in which payment is received from the purchaser. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, revenue recognized in the reporting period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods was insignificant. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s receivables from contracts with customers were $201.2 million and $343.5 million, respectively.

In addition, certain of these covenants will be terminated before the 2026 Senior Notes mature if at any time no default or event of default exists under the 2026 Indenture and the 2026 Senior Notes receive an investment-grade rating from at least two ratings agencies. The 2026 Indenture also contains customary events of default.
At any time prior to October 15, 2023, the Company may redeem the 2026 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount thereof, plus (ii) the “make-whole” premium at the redemption date, plus (iii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any. On or after October 15, 2023, the Company may redeem all or part of the 2026 Senior Notes at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount redeemed) equal to (i) 102.500% for the twelve-month period beginning on October 15, 2023; (ii) 101.250% for the twelve-month period beginning on October 15, 2024; and (iii) 100.000% for the twelve-month period beginning October 15, 2025 and at any time thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
The Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes at any time prior to October 15, 2023 with an amount not to exceed the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 105.000% of the principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, provided, however, that (i) at least 65.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes originally issued on the issue date (but excluding 2026 Senior Notes held by the Company) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (unless all such 2026 Senior Notes are redeemed substantially concurrently) and (ii) the redemption occurs within 180 days after the date of the closing of such equity offering.
The 2026 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of Civitas’ existing subsidiaries.

7.500% Senior Notes due 2026. In April 2021, the Company issued $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.500% Senior Notes due 2026 pursuant to an indenture by and among Civitas Resources, U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, and the guarantors party thereto. Interest accrued at the rate of 7.500% per annum and was payable semiannually in arrears on April 30 and October 31 of each year. On May 1, 2022, the Company redeemed all of the issued and outstanding 7.500% Senior Notes at 100.0% of their aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
Credit Facility
The Company is party to a reserve-based revolving facility, as the borrower, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), as the administrative agent, and a syndicate of financial institutions, as lenders, that had an aggregate maximum commitment amount of $2.0 billion and was set to mature on November 1, 2025 (with all subsequent amendments, the “Credit Facility” or the “Credit Agreement”).
The Credit Facility is guaranteed by all restricted domestic subsidiaries of the Company, including the entities that became subsidiaries of the Company upon the consummation of the Acquisitions, and is secured by first priority security interests on substantially all assets, including a mortgage on at least 90% of the total value of the proved properties evaluated in the most recently delivered reserve reports prior to the amendment effective date, including any engineering reports relating to the oil and natural gas properties of the restricted domestic subsidiaries of the Company, subject to customary exceptions.
The Credit Facility contains customary representations and affirmative covenants. The Credit Facility also contains customary negative covenants, which, among other things, and subject to certain exceptions, include restrictions on (i) liens, (ii) indebtedness, guarantees and other obligations, (iii) restrictions in agreements on liens and distributions, (iv) mergers or consolidations, (v) asset sales, (vi) restricted payments, (vii) investments, (viii) affiliate transactions, (ix) change of business, (x) foreign operations or subsidiaries, (xi) name changes, (xii) use of proceeds, letters of credit, (xiii) gas imbalances, (xiv) hedging transactions, (xv) additional subsidiaries, (xvi) changes in fiscal year or fiscal quarter, (xvii) operating leases, (xviii) prepayments of certain debt and other obligations, (xix) sales or discounts of receivables, (xx) dividend payment thresholds, and (xxi) cash balances.
In addition, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants under the Credit Facility, as tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter, including, without limitation, (a) permitted net leverage ratio of 3.00 to 1 and (b) a current ratio, inclusive of the unused commitments then available to be borrowed, to not be less than 1.00 to 1. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2023 and through the filing of this report.
On April 20, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement that increased the Company’s borrowing base from $1.0 billion to $1.7 billion and increased the aggregate elected commitments from $800.0 million to $1.0 billion.
In addition, this amendment resulted in the removal and replacement of LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as a mechanism to determine interest for borrowings made under the Credit Facility using a term-specific SOFR. As a result, borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the option of the Company, either (i) the Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”, for ABR Revolving Credit Loans) plus the applicable margin, or (ii) the term-specific SOFR plus the applicable margin. ABR is established as a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the rate of interest publicly announced by JPMorgan as its prime rate, (b) the applicable rate of interest published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 0.5%, or (c) the term-specific SOFR plus 1.0%, subject to a 1.5% floor plus the applicable margin of 1.0% to 2.0%, based on the utilization of the Credit Facility. Term-specific SOFR is based on one-, three-, or six-month terms as selected by the Company and is subject to a 0.5% floor plus the applicable margin of 2.0% to 3.0%, based on the utilization of the Credit Facility. Interest on borrowings that bear interest at the SOFR are payable on the last day of the applicable interest period selected by the Company, and interest on borrowings that bear interest at the ABR are payable quarterly in arrears.
As part of the regularly scheduled, semi-annual borrowing base redeterminations under the Credit Facility, on October 27, 2022, the Company’s aggregate elected commitments of $1.0 billion were reaffirmed and borrowing base was increased from $1.7 billion to $1.85 billion.

In connection with the Company’s entry into the Hibernia Acquisition Agreement and the Tap Rock Acquisition Agreement, on June 23, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company was authorized to, among other things, (i) offer and issue the Acquisition Senior Notes, (ii) incur indebtedness pursuant to those certain debt commitment letters by and among the Company, Bank of America N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. providing for two separate 364-day bridge loan facilities in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2.7 billion (such facilities, the “Bridge Facilities” and the loans made thereunder, the “Bridge Loans”), the proceeds of which would have, if drawn, be used to partially fund the Acquisitions, (iii) incur the debt described in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) without any corresponding reduction in the borrowing base of the Credit Facility, and (iv) incur pari passu term loan indebtedness subject to a total secured leverage test of 2.00 to 1.00 and certain other customary terms and conditions. Because the Acquisition Senior Notes successfully closed and were issued on June 29, 2023, the Company did not draw on the Bridge Loans and has terminated the commitments under the Bridge Facilities. Consequently, approximately $22.6 million of fees associated with the Bridge Facilities and backstop fees associated with the Credit Facility amendment were incurred and expensed to merger transaction costs in the accompanying statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Finally, in connection with the Company’s closing of the Acquisitions, on August 2, 2023, the Company entered in an amendment to the Credit Agreement whereby aggregate elected commitments increased from $1.0 billion to $1.85 billion, the borrowing base increased from $1.85 billion to $3.0 billion, and the aggregate maximum credit commitment increased from $2.0 billion to $4.0 billion. In addition, the maturity of the Credit Facility was extended to August 2028. The next scheduled borrowing base redetermination date is set to occur in May 2024.
The following table presents the outstanding balance, total amount of letters of credit outstanding, and available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

| August 2, 2023 |  | June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Revolving credit facility | $ | 750,000 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Letters of credit | 12,100 |  |  | 12,100 |  |  | 12,100 |
Available borrowing capacity | 1,087,900 |  |  | 987,900 |  |  | 987,900 |
Total aggregate elected commitments | $ | 1,850,000 |  |  | $ | 1,000,000 |  |  | $ | 1,000,000 |

In connection with the amendments to the Credit Facility, the Company capitalized a total of approximately $13.0 million in deferred financing costs as of June 30, 2023. Of the total post-amortization net capitalized amounts, (i) $4.6 million and $5.5 million are presented within other noncurrent assets on the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and (ii) $3.5 million and $3.0 million are presented within prepaid expenses and other on the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Interest Expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred interest expense of $8.8 million and $8.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred interest expense of $16.2 million and $17.2 million, respectively. No interest was capitalized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company is involved in various commercial and regulatory claims, litigation, and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company assesses these claims in an effort to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss for potential accrual in its consolidated financial statements. In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, an accrual is recorded for a loss contingency when its occurrence is probable and damages can be reasonably estimated based on the most likely anticipated outcome or the minimum amount within a range of possible outcomes. Because legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about uncertain future events. When evaluating contingencies, the Company may be unable to provide a meaningful estimate due to a number of factors, including the procedural status of the matter in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and/or the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matters. The Company regularly reviews contingencies to determine the adequacy of its accruals and related disclosures.

Table of Contents
As of the filing date of this report, there were no probable, material pending, or overtly threatened legal actions against the Company of which it was aware, other than the following:
Boulder County. In prior periods, there was ongoing litigation between Boulder County and Extraction which has been previously disclosed as having the potential to prevent oil and gas operations for the development of minerals contained within Boulder County, Colorado. Boulder County had initiated suit in District Court for Boulder County that was primarily a contract case, where the relevant contracts were the conservation easement over the Blue Paintbrush location, Extraction’s Surface Use Agreement for the Blue Paintbrush location, and the leases that Boulder owns within the Blue Paintbrush drilling and spacing unit. Boulder sought invalidation of these leases in the litigation. This litigation has been resolved as to all substantive issues.
In May 2022, Boulder County alleged new legal theories and requested termination of the leases previously at issue in the Blue Paintbrush litigation. Boulder raised these same claims in opposition to the Company’s pooling application before the Colorado Energy & Carbon Management Commission (“ECMC”) (formerly the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission), which did not proceed to hearing after the Company withdrew the pooling application. If an action is brought by Boulder County, an adverse outcome in any such litigation could result in the Company failing to meet its development objectives in Blue Paintbrush.
Enforcement. Disclosure of certain environmental matters is required when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and the proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that the Company believes could exceed $0.3 million. The Company has received Notices of Alleged Violations (“NOAV”) from the ECMC alleging violations of various Colorado statutes and ECMC regulations governing oil and gas operations. The Company has further received notices from the Colorado Air Pollution Control Division. The Company continues to engage in discussions regarding resolution of the alleged violations. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has accrued approximately $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively, associated with the NOAVs and Colorado Air Pollution Control Division notices.
Commitments
Firm Transportation Agreements. The Company is party to a firm pipeline transportation contract to provide a guaranteed outlet for production on an oil pipeline system. The contract requires the Company to pay minimum volume transportation charges on 12,500 barrels (“Bbl”) per day through April 2025, regardless of the amount of pipeline capacity utilized by the Company. The aggregate financial commitment fee over the remaining term was $26.8 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company expects to utilize most, if not all, of the firm capacity on the oil pipeline system.
Minimum Volume Agreement - Oil. The Company is party to a purchase agreement to deliver fixed and determinable quantities of crude oil. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to make periodic deficiency payments for any shortfalls in delivering the minimum volume commitment of 20,000 gross Bbls per day over a term ending in December 2023. The aggregate financial commitment fee over the remaining term is $22.6 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company has not and does not expect to incur any deficiency payments.
Minimum Volume Agreement - Gas and Other. The Company is party to a gas gathering and processing agreement (the “Gathering Agreement”) with a third-party midstream provider over a term ending in 2029 with an annual minimum volume commitment of 13.0 billion cubic feet of natural gas. The Gathering Agreement also includes a commitment to sell take-in-kind NGLs from other processing agreements of 7,500 Bbls a day through 2026 with the ability to roll forward up to a 10% shortfall in a given month to the subsequent month. The aggregate financial commitment fee over the remaining term is $107.6 million as of June 30, 2023, which fluctuates with commodity prices as this is a value-based percentage of proceeds sales contract. Based on current projections, the Company may incur approximately $31.0 million of shortfall payments under the Gathering Agreement during the remaining term of approximately seven years; however, the Company is actively engaging alternative strategies to reduce any potential contract deficiencies incurred in future periods.
Additionally, the Company is also party to a gas gathering and processing agreement with several third-party producers and a third-party midstream provider to deliver to two different plants over terms that end in August 2025 and July 2026. The Company’s share of these commitments requires an incremental 51.5 and 20.6 million cubic feet of natural gas (“MMcf”) per day, respectively, over a baseline volume of 65 MMcf per day for a period of seven years following the in-service dates of the plants. The Company may be required to pay a shortfall fee for any incremental volume deficiencies under these commitments. These contractual obligations can be reduced by the Company’s proportionate share of the collective volumes delivered to the plants by other incremental third-party volumes available to the midstream provider that are in excess of the total commitments. Because of the third-party producer reduction provision, we believe that the aggregate financial commitment fee over the remaining term is zero as of June 30, 2023. The Company has not and does not expect to incur any deficiency payments.
17

Table of Contents
The Company is also party to additional individually immaterial agreements that require the Company to pay a fee associated with the minimum volumes over various terms ending in December 2025, regardless of the amount delivered. The aggregate financial commitment fee over the remaining term for these contracts was $8.5 million as of June 30, 2023.
The minimum annual payments under these agreements for the next five years as of June 30, 2023 are presented below (in thousands):

|  | Firm Transportation |  | Minimum Volume(1)
Remainder of 2023 |  | $ | 7,360 |  |  | $ | 34,182 |
2024 |  | 14,640 |  |  | 19,596 |
2025 |  | 4,800 |  |  | 20,434 |
2026 |  | — |  |  | 16,816 |
2027 |  | — |  |  | 16,250 |
2028 and thereafter |  | — |  |  | 31,460 |
Total |  | $ | 26,800 |  |  | $ | 138,738 |

___________________________
(1)The above calculation is based on the minimum volume commitment schedule (as defined in the relevant agreement) and applicable differential fees.
Other commitments. The Company is party to a drilling commitment agreement with a third-party midstream provider such that the Company is required to drill and complete a total of 106 qualifying wells, whereby a minimum number of wells out of the total must be drilled by a deadline occurring every two years over a period ending December 31, 2026. The drilling commitment agreement provides for, among other things, a number of specifications such as minimum consecutive days of production, well performance, and lateral length. Wells operated by others can satisfy this commitment, subject to limitations. If the Company were to fail to complete the wells by the applicable deadline, it would be in breach of the agreement and the third-party midstream provider could attempt to assert damages against Civitas and its affiliates. As of the date of filing, the Company cannot reasonably estimate how much, if any, damages will be paid.
Refer to Note 13 - Leases for lease commitments.
NOTE 7 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Long Term Incentive Plans
In April 2017, the Company adopted the 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (“2017 LTIP”), which provides for the issuance of restricted stock units, performance stock units, and stock options, and reserved 2,467,430 shares of common stock. In June 2021, the Company adopted the 2021 Long Term Incentive Plan (“2021 LTIP”), which reserved an incremental 700,000 shares of common stock to those previously reserved under the 2017 LTIP. Finally, in conjunction with the Company’s merger with Extraction Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Extraction”) in November 2021, Civitas assumed Extraction’s 2021 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Extraction Equity Plan”), which reserved 3,305,080 shares of common stock now issuable by Civitas. The 2017 LTIP, 2021 LTIP, and Extraction Equity Plan are collectively referred to herein as the “LTIP”.
The Company records compensation expense associated with the issuance of awards under the LTIP on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the fair value of the awards as of the date of grant within general and administrative expense. The following table outlines the compensation expense recorded by type of award (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,

As of June 30, 2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to the awards granted under the LTIP will be amortized through the relevant periods as follows (in thousands):

| Unrecognized Compensation Expense |  | Final Year of Recognition
Restricted and deferred stock units | $ | 27,578 |  |  | 2026
Performance stock units | 26,364 |  |  | 2025
Total unrecognized stock-based compensation | $ | 53,942 |  |  |

Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units
The Company grants time-based Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) to its officers, executives, and employees and time-based Deferred Stock Units (“DSUs”) to its non-employee directors as part of its LTIP. Each RSU and DSU represents a right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock at the end of the specified vesting period. RSUs generally vest and settle either over a (i) one-year vesting period, with the entire grant vesting and settling on the anniversary date or (ii) three-year vesting period, with one-third of the total grant vesting and settling on each anniversary date. Each RSU is entitled to a dividend equivalent right to receive, upon settlement, a cash payment based on the regular cash dividends that would have been paid on a share of the Company’s common stock during the period between the grant date and the date the RSUs vest and are settled. Accrued but unpaid dividend equivalents are recognized as a liability on the accompanying balance sheets, until the recipients receive the dividend equivalents upon vesting and settlement. DSUs generally vest over a one-year period following the grant date. DSUs are settled in shares of the Company’s common stock upon the non-employee director’s separation of service from the Board of Directors (the “Board”). Each DSU is entitled to a dividend equivalent right to receive, upon vesting, a cash payment based on the regular cash dividends that would have been paid on a share of the Company’s common stock. The grant-date fair value of RSUs and DSUs is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant.
A summary of the status and activity of non-vested RSUs and DSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is presented below:

| RSUs and DSUs |  | Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Non-vested, beginning of year | 675,898 |  |  | $ | 50.27 |
Granted | 309,500 |  |  | 71.12 |
Vested | (342,563) |  |  | 46.67 |
Forfeited | (34,072) |  |  | 57.36 |
Non-vested, end of period | 608,763 |  |  | $ | 62.50 |

The aggregate grant-date fair value of the RSUs and DSUs granted under the LTIP during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $22.0 million.
Performance Stock Units
The Company grants market-based performance stock units (“PSUs”) to its officers and certain executives as part of its LTIP. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued to settle PSUs ranges from zero to 225% (or, for PSUs granted prior to fiscal year 2023, 200%) of the number of PSUs granted and is determined based on performance achievement against certain market-based criteria over a three-year performance period. PSUs generally vest and settle on December 31 of the year preceding the third anniversary of the date of grant. Each PSU is entitled to a dividend equivalent right to receive, upon settlement, a cash payment based on the regular cash dividends that would have been paid on a share of the Company’s common stock during the period between the grant date and the date the PSUs vest and are settled. Accrued but unpaid dividend equivalents are recognized as a liability on the accompanying balance sheets, until the recipients receive the dividend equivalents upon vesting and settlement.
Performance achievement is determined based on either, or a combination of, (1) the Company’s annualized absolute total shareholder return (“TSR”) or (2) for certain PSUs granted prior to fiscal year 2023, the Company’s absolute TSR relative to that of a defined peer group. Absolute TSR is determined based upon the performance of the Company’s common stock over the performance period relative to the price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date. For awards with a relative TSR component, the Company’s absolute TSR is compared with the absolute TSRs of a group of peer companies over the performance period. The absolute TSR for the Company and each of the peer companies is determined by dividing (A) (i) the volume-weighted average share price for the last 30 trading days of the performance period, minus (ii) the volume-weighted average share price for the 30 trading days preceding the beginning of the performance period, plus (iii) dividends paid by (B)
19

Table of Contents
the volume-weighted average share price for the 30 trading days preceding the beginning of the performance period. The resultant amount is then annualized based on the length of the performance period.
The grant-date fair value of the PSUs was estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The Monte Carlo valuation model is based on random projections of stock price paths and must be repeated numerous times to achieve a probabilistic assessment. Significant assumptions used in this valuation include the Company’s expected volatility as well as the volatilities for each of the Company’s peers and an interpolated risk-free interest rate based on U.S. Treasury yields with maturities consistent with the performance period.
A summary of the status and activity of non-vested PSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is presented below:

| PSUs (1) |  | Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Non-vested, beginning of year | 345,999 |  |  | $ | 77.42 |
Granted | 233,861 |  |  | 103.39 |
Vested | (89,901) |  |  | 78.49 |
Forfeited | (59,726) |  |  | 87.80 |
Expired | (242) |  |  | 18.26 |
Non-vested, end of period | 429,991 |  |  | $ | 89.92 |

___________________________
(1)The number of awards assumes that the associated performance condition is met at the target amount (multiplier of one). The final number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued may vary depending on the performance multiplier, which ranges from zero to 225% (or, for PSUs granted prior to fiscal year 2023, 200%), depending on the level of satisfaction of the performance condition.
The aggregate grant-date fair value of the PSUs granted under the LTIP during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $24.2 million.
Stock Options
The LTIP allows for the issuance of stock options to the Company’s employees at the sole discretion of the Board. Options expire ten years from the grant date unless otherwise determined by the Board.
Stock options are valued using a Black-Scholes Model where expected volatility is based on an average historical volatility of a peer group selected by management over a period consistent with the expected life assumption on the grant date, the risk-free rate of return is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yield on the grant date with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the awards, and the Company’s expected life of stock option awards is derived from the midpoint of the average vesting time and contractual term of the awards.
A summary of the status and activity of stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is presented below:

| Stock Options |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding, beginning of year | 15,170 |  |  | $ | 34.36 |  |  |  |  |
Exercised | (13,463) |  |  | 34.36 |  |  |  |  |

Options outstanding and exercisable | 1,596 |  |  | $ | 34.36 |  |  | 3.8 |  | $ | 56 |

The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.5 million.
NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows authoritative accounting guidance for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities in its financial statements. This guidance defines fair value as 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. Further, this guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.
20

Table of Contents
The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable
Level 3: Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable
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 Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.
Derivatives
The Company uses Level 2 inputs to measure the fair value of oil and natural gas commodity price derivatives. The fair value of the Company’s commodity price derivatives is estimated using industry-standard models that contemplate various inputs including, but not limited to, the contractual price of the underlying position, current market prices, forward commodity price curves, volatility factors, time value of money, and the credit risk of both the Company and its counterparties. We validate our fair value estimate by corroborating the original source of inputs, monitoring changes in valuation methods and assumptions, and reviewing counterparty mark-to-market statements and other supporting documentation. Refer to Note 9 - Derivatives for more information regarding the Company’s derivative instruments.
The following tables present the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and their classification within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

The 2026 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes, and 2031 Senior Notes are recorded at cost, net of any unamortized discount or deferred financing costs. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the 2026 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes, and 2031 Senior Notes were $377.3 million, $1.37 billion, and $1.37 billion, respectively. These fair values are based on quoted market prices, and as such, are designated as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The recorded value of the Credit Facility, if any, approximates its fair value as it bears interest at a floating rate that approximates a current market rate. Please refer to Note 5 - Long-Term Debt for additional information.

Warrants
Warrants issued are indexed to the Company’s common stock and required to be net share settled via a cashless exercise. Accordingly, they are classified as equity instruments. The Company’s share price traded below the exercise price of the warrants and therefore were not exercisable during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
The fair value of the warrants on the issuance date was determined using Level 3 inputs including, but not limited to, volatility, risk-free rate, and dividend yield under the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial option pricing model. The warrants are recorded within additional paid-in capital on the accompanying balance sheets at a fair value of $77.5 million, with no recurring fair value measurement required. There have been no changes to the initial carrying amount of the warrants since issuance.
Acquisitions and Impairments of Proved and Unproved Properties
We measure acquired assets or businesses at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and review our proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties for impairment using inputs that are not observable in the market, and are therefore designated as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. There were no impairments of proved properties recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and no abandonment and impairment of unproved properties expense was incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred abandonment and impairment of unproved properties expense of zero and $18.0 million, respectively. Please refer to Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for information on the Company’s policies for determining fair value of its proved and unproved properties and related impairment expense.
NOTE 9 - DERIVATIVES
The Company periodically enters into commodity derivative contracts to mitigate a portion of its exposure to potentially adverse market changes in commodity prices for its expected future oil and natural gas production and the associated impact on cash flows. The Company’s commodity derivative contracts consist of swaps, collars, basis protection swaps, and puts. As of June 30, 2023, all derivative counterparties were members of the Credit Facility lender group and all commodity derivative contracts are entered into for other-than-trading purposes. The Company does not designate its commodity derivative contracts as hedging instruments.
A typical swap arrangement guarantees a fixed price on contracted volumes. If the agreed upon published third-party index price (“index price”) is lower than the fixed contract price at the time of settlement, the Company receives the difference between the index price and the fixed contract price. If the index price is higher than the fixed contact price at the time of settlement, the Company pays the difference between the index price and the fixed contract price.
A typical collar arrangement establishes a floor and ceiling price on contracted volumes through the use of a short call and a long put (“two-way collar”). When the index price is above the ceiling price at the time of settlement, the Company pays the difference between the index price and the ceiling price. When the index price is below the floor price at the time of settlement, the Company receives the difference between the index price and floor price. When the index price is between the floor price and ceiling price, no payment or receipt occurs. A minority of our collar arrangements combine a two-way collar with a short put that holds an exercise price below the floor price (“three-way collar”). In these arrangements, when the index price is below the floor price at the time of settlement, the Company receives the difference between the index price and the floor price, capped at the difference between the floor price and the exercise price of the short put.
Basis protection swaps are arrangements that guarantee a price differential for natural gas from a specified delivery point. For basis protection swaps, the Company receives a payment from the counterparty if the price differential is greater than the stated terms of the contract and pays the counterparty if the price differential is less than the stated terms of the contract.
A put arrangement gives the Company the right to sell the underlying commodity at a strike price over the term of the contract. If the index price is higher than the strike price, no payment or receipt occurs. If the index price is lower than the strike price, the Company receives the difference between the index price and the strike price.

NOTE 10 - ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS
The Company recognizes an estimated liability for future costs associated with the abandonment of its oil and gas properties, including facilities requiring decommissioning. A liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation and corresponding increase to the carrying value of the related long-lived asset are recorded at the time a well is drilled or acquired, or a facility is constructed. The increase in carrying value is included in proved properties in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company depletes the amount added to proved properties and recognizes expense in connection with the accretion of the discounted liability over the remaining estimated economic lives of the respective long-lived assets. Cash paid to settle asset retirement obligations is included in the cash flows from operating activities section of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
The Company’s estimated asset retirement obligation liability is based on historical experience plugging and abandoning wells, estimated economic lives, estimated plugging and abandonment cost, and regulatory requirements. The liability is discounted using the credit-adjusted risk-free rate estimated at the time the liability is incurred or revised.

NOTE 11 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per basic and diluted share are calculated under the treasury stock method. Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the basic weighted-average common shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding, which includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities consist of unvested RSUs, DSUs, and PSUs, as well as outstanding in-the-money stock options and warrants. When the Company recognizes a loss from continuing operations, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and are consequently excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
As discussed in Note 7 - Stock-Based Compensation, PSUs represent the right to receive a number of shares of the Company’s common stock ranging from zero to 225% (or, for PSUs granted prior to fiscal year 2023, 200%) of PSUs granted based on the performance achievement over the applicable performance period. The number of potentially dilutive shares related to PSUs is based on the number of shares, if any, that would be issuable at the end of the respective reporting period, assuming that date was the end of the performance period applicable to such awards.
The Company has also issued stock options and warrants, which both represent the right to purchase the Company’s common stock at a specified exercise price. The number of potentially dilutive shares related to the stock options and warrants is based on the number of shares, if any, that would be exercisable at the end of the respective reporting period, assuming that date was the end of such stock options’ or warrants’ term. Stock options and warrants are only dilutive when the average price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price.
The following table sets forth the calculations of basic and diluted net income per common share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Net income | $ | 139,287 |  |  | $ | 468,821 |  |  | $ | 341,748 |  |  | $ | 560,460 |
Basic net income per common share | $ | 1.73 |  |  | $ | 5.52 |  |  | $ | 4.22 |  |  | $ | 6.60 |
Diluted net income per common share | $ | 1.72 |  |  | $ | 5.48 |  |  | $ | 4.18 |  |  | $ | 6.56 |
Weighted-average shares outstanding - basic | 80,393 |  |  | 84,993 |  |  | 81,052 |  |  | 84,917 |
Add: dilutive effect of stock awards | 751 |  |  | 561 |  |  | 772 |  |  | 536 |
Weighted-average shares outstanding - diluted | 81,144 |  |  | 85,554 |  |  | 81,824 |  |  | 85,453 |

There were 3,846 and 59,161 shares that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There were 111,251 and 30,822 shares that were anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The exercise price of the Company’s warrants was in excess of the Company’s stock price during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022; therefore, they were excluded from the earnings per share calculation.

NOTE 12 - INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years related to cumulative temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets. The tax effect of the net change in the cumulative temporary differences during each period in the deferred tax assets and liabilities determines the periodic provision for deferred taxes.
The Company assesses the recoverability of its deferred tax assets each period by considering whether it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available (both positive and negative) evidence, including future reversals of temporary differences, tax-planning strategies, projected future taxable income, and results of operations. As a result of merger activity in 2021, the Company had a valuation allowance of $25.4 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 against certain acquired net operating losses and other tax attributes due to the limitation on realizability caused by the change of ownership provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company will continue to monitor facts and circumstances in the reassessment of the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be realized.
The net deferred tax liability as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $409.6 million and $319.6 million, respectively. Additionally, prepaid income taxes under current assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $2.3 million and $29.6 million, respectively.
Federal income tax expense differs from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21% to income before income taxes primarily due to the effect of state income taxes, excess tax benefits and deficiencies on stock-based compensation awards, tax limitations on compensation of covered individuals, changes in valuation allowances, and other permanent differences including bargain purchase gain. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded income tax expense of $44.4 million and $152.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded income tax expense of $109.5 million and $175.8 million, respectively.
The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company’s management does not believe that there are any new items or changes in facts or judgments that would impact the Company’s tax position taken thus far in 2023.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) was signed into law. Among other provisions, the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“Corporate AMT”) for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of the Corporate AMT on our current income tax expense and income taxes payable; however, we currently do not believe this will materially affect our income taxes paid for the 2023 tax year.

NOTE 15 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Share Repurchases
On January 24, 2023, we entered into a privately-negotiated share purchase agreement with CPPIB Crestone Peak Resources Canada Inc. for the purchase of approximately 4.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $61.00 per share for a total purchase price of approximately $300.0 million. The purchase closed on January 27, 2023 and was funded from the Company’s cash on hand. The shares repurchased were immediately retired.
In February 2023, we announced that the Board provided authorization for a stock repurchase program (the “stock repurchase program”) pursuant to which we may, from time to time and through December 31, 2024, acquire shares of our common stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or through block trades, derivative transactions, or purchases made in accordance with the Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act in an amount not to exceed $1.0 billion, exclusive of any fees, commissions, or other expenses related to such repurchases. In June 2023, commensurate with the announcement of the Acquisitions, the Board reduced the amount of stock authorized for repurchase by the Company under the stock repurchase program from $1.0 billion to $500.0 million. The stock repurchase program does not require any specific number of shares to be acquired and can be modified or discontinued by the Board at any time.As of June 30, 2023, the Company has repurchased approximately 312,800 shares under the program at a weighted average price of $64.55 per share for a total cost of $20.2 million.
We record share repurchases at cost, which includes incremental direct transaction costs, as a reduction to stockholder’s equity. As part of the incremental direct transaction costs, we recorded a 1% excise tax, as imposed by the IRA, with the corresponding liability recorded within accounts payable and accrued expenses on the accompanying balance sheets. Any excess of cost over the par value is charged to additional paid-in-capital on a pro-rata basis, with any remaining cost charged to retained earnings.
Dividends
In May 2021, we announced the initiation of a quarterly base cash dividend on our common stock. In March 2022, the Board approved the initiation of a quarterly variable cash dividend in addition to the aforementioned base dividend, equal to 50% of free cash flow after the base cash dividend for the preceding twelve-month period and pro forma for all acquisition and divestiture activity, assuming pro forma compliance with certain leverage targets.
The following table summarizes the dividends declared for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

| Base |  | Variable |  | Total |  | Total
| (per share) |  | (per share) |  | (per share) |  | (in thousands)
2023: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
First quarter | $ | 0.50 |  |  | $ | 1.65 |  |  | $ | 2.15 |  |  | 176,878 |
Second quarter | $ | 0.50 |  |  | $ | 1.62 |  |  | $ | 2.12 |  |  | 173,358 |
2022: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
First quarter | $ | 0.46 |  |  | $ | 0.75 |  |  | $ | 1.21 |  |  | 104,444 |
Second quarter | $ | 0.46 |  |  | $ | 0.90 |  |  | $ | 1.36 |  |  | 117,151 |

The decision to pay any future dividends is solely within the discretion of, and subject to approval by, the Board. The Board’s determination with respect to any such dividends, including the record date, the payment date, and the actual amount of the dividend, will depend upon our profitability and financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law, and other factors that the Board deems relevant at the time of such determination.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our 2022 Form 10-K, as well as the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Executive Summary
We are an independent exploration and production company focused on the acquisition, development, and production of oil and associated liquids-rich natural gas primarily in the DJ Basin in Colorado and Permian Basin in Texas and New Mexico. The Company’s primary objective is to maximize shareholder returns by responsibly developing our oil and natural gas resources. To achieve this, Civitas is guided by four foundational pillars that we believe add long-term, sustainable value. These pillars are: generate free cash flow, maintain a premier balance sheet, return free cash flow to shareholders, and demonstrate ESG leadership.
Financial and Operating Results
Our financial and operational results include:
•Crude oil equivalent sales volumes remained broadly flat for the three months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the same period during 2022;
•Lease operating expense per barrel of oil equivalent (“Boe”) increased by 23% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the same period during 2022 due to inflationary impacts and extreme weather;
•Midstream operating expense per Boe increased 79% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the same period during 2022 due to increases in labor and compression costs;
•General and administrative expense per Boe increased by 14% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the same period during 2022 due to an increase in headcount and certain executive cash severance costs, partially offset by a decrease in professional services;
•Acquisition Senior Notes issued on June 29, 2023, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $2.67 billion after deducting fees of $33.8 million;
•Cash dividends of $174.1 million, or $2.12 per share, declared and paid during the three months ended June 30, 2023;
•Share repurchases of 5.2 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a weighted average of $61.21 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2023;
•Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $876.0 million, as compared to $1.3 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Please refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources below for additional discussion; and
•Capital expenditures, inclusive of accruals, were $463.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, of which $24.0 million represents land and midstream capital expenditures.
Midstream Assets
The Company’s midstream assets provide reliable gathering, treating, and storage for the Company’s operated production while reducing facility site footprints, leading to more cost-efficient operations and reduced emissions and surface disturbance per Boe produced. Additionally, this infrastructure helps ensure that the Company’s production is not constrained by any single midstream service provider. The net book value of the Company’s midstream assets was $332.6 million as of June 30, 2023.

Current Events and Outlook
Commodity prices continue to be impacted by various macro-economic factors influencing the balance of supply and demand. In 2022 and continuing into 2023, commodity prices have remained relatively strong, which has improved our earnings and ability to generate free cash flow. The strength in commodity prices has been primarily driven by increased demand resulting from the global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and related economic sanctions imposed on Russia, as well as OPEC+ restraining production growth, further augmented supply shortages, causing upward pressure on oil prices.
These drivers of upward price pressure are tempered by economic uncertainty surrounding inflation and increased interest rates. These inflationary pressures could also result in increases to our capital and operating expenses and could impact the cost of oilfield services, equipment, and personnel retention, among other things. Increases in interest rates as a result of inflation and a potentially recessionary economic environment in the United States could also have a negative effect on the demand for oil and natural gas. The foregoing destabilizing factors have caused dramatic fluctuations in global financial markets and uncertainty about world-wide oil and natural gas supply and demand, which in turn has increased the volatility of oil and natural gas prices.
The below graph depicts monthly average NYMEX WTI oil and NYMEX natural gas HH spot price over the periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
In light of uncertainty associated with oil and natural gas demand, future monetary policy relating to inflationary pressures, and governmental policies aimed at transitioning toward lower carbon energy, we cannot predict any future volatility in or levels of commodity prices or demand for oil and natural gas.

(1)Crude oil sales excludes $0.3 million and $0.1 million of oil transportation revenues from third parties, which do not have associated sales volumes, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(2)Natural gas sales excludes $1.4 million and $0.5 million of gas gathering revenues from third parties, which do not have associated sales volumes, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(3)Determined using the ratio of 6 thousand cubic feet (“Mcf”) of natural gas to 1 Bbl of crude oil.
(4)Derivatives economically hedge the price we receive for oil, natural gas, and NGL. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the derivative cash settlement loss for oil was $2.2 million, and the derivative cash settlement gain for natural gas was $0.8 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the derivative cash settlement loss for oil, natural gas, and NGLs was $114.8 million, $54.1 million, and $12.8 million, respectively. Please refer to Note 9 - Derivatives under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional disclosures.
Product revenues decreased by 43% to $658.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $1.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a $30.44, or 42%, decrease in oil equivalent pricing, excluding the impact of derivatives.

Operating expenses | $ | 30.44 |  |  | $ | 28.47 |  |  | $ | 1.97 |  |  | 7 | %

Lease operating expense. Our lease operating expense increased $9.3 million, or 22%, to $51.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $41.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 23% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The overall increase in lease operating expense is the result of (i) the impact of inflation in areas such as labor, power, and rentals and (ii) extreme seasonal weather that created prolonged downtime and meaningfully higher costs to bring wells back online.
Midstream operating expense. Our midstream operating expense increased $5.8 million, or 78%, to $13.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 79% on an equivalent basis per Boe. Midstream operating expense increased due to increases in labor and compression costs.
Gathering, transportation, and processing. Gathering, transportation, and processing expense decreased $14.6 million, or 18%, to $64.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $79.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and decreased 18% on an equivalent basis per Boe. We are party to a number of value-based percentage of proceeds sales contracts, which track solely with natural gas and NGL pricing and thereby have contributed to a decrease in gathering, transportation, and processing expense. Conversely, the Company continually monitors for the best sales volumes outlet and thereby incurred partially offsetting increased gathering, transportation, and processing expense during the three months ended June 30, 2023 associated with crude oil sales volumes, which increased by 5% when compared to the same period in 2022.
Severance and ad valorem taxes. Our severance and ad valorem taxes decreased $33.5 million, or 39%, to $52.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $85.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and decreased 38% on an equivalent basis per Boe. Severance and ad valorem taxes primarily correlate to revenues, which decreased by 43% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the same period in 2022.

Table of Contents
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Our depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense increased $28.3 million, or 14%, to $232.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $204.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 15% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The increase in depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense is due to an increase in the depletion rate driven by an increase in the depletable property base in proportion to proved reserves.
Unused commitments. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred $0.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in unused commitments primarily due to certain deficiency payments incurred under minimum volume crude oil and water commitments.
Merger transaction costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred $31.1 million in short-term financing fees as well as legal, advisor, and other costs associated with the Acquisitions. Please refer to Note 2 - Acquisitions and Divestitures and Note 5 - Long-term Debt under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional discussion. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred $1.4 million in legal, advisor, and other costs associated with the Bison Acquisition and other mergers that closed in the fourth quarter of 2021.
General and administrative expense. Our general and administrative expense increased $3.8 million, or 13%, to $33.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $29.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 14% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily due to an increase in headcount and certain executive cash severance costs, partially offset by a decrease in professional services.
Derivative gain (loss). Our derivative gain for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $4.9 million as compared to a loss of $72.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Our derivative gain for the three months ended June 30, 2023 is due to fair market value adjustments caused by expected future market prices being lower relative to our future contracted hedge prices, partially offset by settlement losses caused by market prices being higher than our current contracted hedge prices at the time of settlement. Our derivative loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 is due to settlement losses caused by market prices being higher than our current contracted hedge prices at the time of settlement, partially offset by fair market value adjustments caused by expected future market prices being lower relative to our future contracted hedge prices. Please refer to Note 9 - Derivatives under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional discussion.
Interest expense. Our interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $8.8 million and $8.1 million, respectively. Average debt outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $459.3 million and $443.4 million, respectively. The components of interest expense for the periods presented are as follows (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022
Senior Notes | $ | 6,284 |  |  | $ | 5,646 |
Credit Facility | — |  |  | 116 |
Commitment and letter of credit fees under the Credit Facility | 1,314 |  |  | 1,252 |
Amortization of deferred financing costs | 1,155 |  |  | 1,102 |
Total interest expense | $ | 8,753 |  |  | $ | 8,116 |

Income tax expense. Our income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $44.4 million and $152.5 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.2% and 24.5% on pre-tax income, respectively. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21% due to the effect of state income taxes, excess tax benefits and deficiencies on stock-based compensation awards, tax limitations on compensation of covered individuals, changes in valuation allowances, and other permanent differences, including bargain purchase gain. Please refer to Note 12 - Income Taxes under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional discussion.

Lease operating expense. Our lease operating expense increased $19.2 million, or 25%, to $97.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $77.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 25% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The overall increase in lease operating expense is the result of the following: (i) the Bison Acquisition that closed on March 1, 2022, (ii) the impact of inflation in areas such as labor, power, and rentals, and (iii) extreme seasonal weather that created prolonged downtime and meaningfully higher costs to bring wells back online.
Midstream operating expense. Our midstream operating expense increased $10.2 million, or 77%, to $23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 77% on an equivalent basis per Boe. Midstream operating expense increased due to increases in labor and compression costs.
Gathering, transportation, and processing. Gathering, transportation, and processing expense increased $2.3 million, or 2%, to $132.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $129.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 2% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The Company continually monitors for the best sales volumes outlet and thereby incurred increased gathering, transportation, and processing expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 associated with crude oil sales volumes, which also increased by 5% when compared to the same period in 2022. Additionally, we are party to a number of value-based percentage of proceeds sales contracts, which track solely with natural gas and NGL pricing and thereby have partially offset the overall increase in gathering, transportation, and processing expense.

Severance and ad valorem taxes. Our severance and ad valorem taxes decreased $44.4 million, or 30%, to $104.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $149.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and decreased 29% on an equivalent basis per Boe. Severance and ad valorem taxes primarily correlate to revenues, which decreased by 33% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the same period in 2022.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Our depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense increased $44.7 million, or 11%, to $434.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $389.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 12% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The increase in depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense is due to an increase in the depletion rate driven by an increase in the depletable property base in proportion to proved reserves.
Abandonment and impairment of unproved properties. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred $18.0 million in abandonment and impairment of unproved properties due to the Company’s assessment of its locations and replacement of non-core legacy locations with newly acquired locations. No abandonment and impairment of unproved properties was incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Unused commitments. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred $0.8 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in unused commitments primarily due to certain deficiency payments incurred under minimum volume crude oil and water commitments.
Merger transaction costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred $31.6 million in short-term financing fees as well as legal, advisor, and other costs associated with the Acquisitions. Please refer to Note 2 - Acquisitions and Divestitures and Note 5 - Long-term Debt under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional discussion. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred $22.0 million in legal, advisor, and other costs associated with the Bison Acquisition and other mergers that closed in the fourth quarter of 2021. Merger transaction costs include zero and $7.6 million of severance payments associated with merger and acquisition activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
General and administrative expense. Our general and administrative expense increased $5.0 million, or 8%, to $70.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $65.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 8% on an equivalent basis per Boe. The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily due to an increase in headcount and an increase in professional services.
Derivative gain (loss). Our derivative gain for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $30.1 million as compared to a loss of $368.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Our derivative gain for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is due to fair market value adjustments caused by expected future market prices being lower relative to our future contracted hedge prices, partially offset by settlement losses caused by market prices being higher than our current contracted hedge prices. Our derivative loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is due to settlements and fair market value adjustments caused by market prices being higher than our contracted hedge prices. Please refer to Note 9 - Derivatives under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional discussion.
Interest expense. Our interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $16.2 million and $17.2 million, respectively. Average debt outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $429.8 million and $471.5 million, respectively. The components of interest expense for the periods presented are as follows (in thousands):

| Six Months Ended June 30,

Amortization of deferred financing costs | 2,305 |  |  | 2,180 |
Total interest expense | $ | 16,202 |  |  | $ | 17,182 |

Income tax expense. Our income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $109.5 million and $175.8 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.3% and 23.9% on pre-tax income, respectively. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21% due to the effect of state income taxes, excess tax benefits and deficiencies on stock-based compensation awards, tax limitations on compensation of covered individuals, changes in valuation allowances, and other permanent differences, including bargain purchase gain. Please refer to Note 12 - Income Taxes under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional discussion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity include cash flows from operating activities, available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, potential proceeds from equity and/or debt capital markets transactions, potential proceeds from sales of assets, and other sources. We may use our available liquidity for operating activities, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt reduction, the return of capital to shareholders, and for general corporate purposes.
Our primary source of cash flows from operating activities is the sale of oil, natural gas, and NGLs. As such, our cash flows are subject to significant volatility due to changes in commodity prices, as well as variations in our production volumes. The prices for these commodities are driven by a number of factors beyond our control, including global and regional product supply and demand, the impact of inflation and monetary policy, weather, product distribution, refining and processing capacity, regulatory constraints, and other supply chain dynamics, among other factors.
As of June 30, 2023, our liquidity was $3.7 billion, consisting of cash on hand of $2.7 billion and $987.9 million of available borrowing capacity on our Credit Facility, and our aggregate elected commitments were $1.0 billion and borrowing base was $1.85 billion. Borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility is primarily based on the value assigned to the proved reserves attributable to our oil and natural gas interests. On August 2, 2023, the Company closed the Acquisitions and simultaneously entered into an amendment to the Credit Facility that increased our aggregate elected commitments from $1.0 billion to $1.85 billion and increased the borrowing base from $1.85 billion to $3.0 billion. As of the date of filing of this report, the available borrowing capacity on our Credit Facility was $1.1 billion. The next scheduled borrowing base redetermination date is set to occur in May 2024.
The Credit Facility contains customary representations and various affirmative and negative covenants as well as certain financial covenants, including (a) a maximum ratio of the Company’s consolidated indebtedness to earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, exploration expense, and other non-cash charges (“permitted net leverage ratio”) of 3.00 to 1 and (b) a current ratio, inclusive of the unused commitments then available to be borrowed, to not be less than 1.00 to 1. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2023, and through the filing of this report. Please refer to Note 5 - Long-Term Debt under Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information.
Our material short-term cash requirements include: operating activities, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, commodity derivative liabilities, dividends, debt interest payments, and payments of contractual obligations. Our material long-term cash requirements from various contractual and other obligations include: debt obligations and related interest payments, firm transportation and minimum volume agreements, taxes, asset retirement obligations, and operating leases. Please refer to Part I, Item 1 for additional information. Our future capital requirements, both near-term and long-term, will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, commodity prices, market conditions, our available liquidity and financing, acquisitions and divestitures of oil and gas properties, the availability of drilling rigs and completion crews, the cost of completion services, success of drilling programs, land and industry partner issues, weather delays, the acquisition of leases with drilling commitments, and other factors. We regularly consider which resources, including debt and equity financings, are available to meet our future financial obligations, planned capital expenditures, and liquidity requirements.
Funding for these requirements may be provided by any combination of the sources of liquidity outlined above. We expect our 2023 capital program to be funded by cash flows from operations. Although we cannot provide any assurance, based on our projected cash flows from operations, our cash on hand, and available borrowing capacity on our Credit Facility, we believe that we will have sufficient capital available to fund these requirements through the 12-month period following the filing of this report.
The following table summarizes our cash flows and other financial measures for the periods indicated (in thousands):

| Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 876,030 |  |  | $ | 1,254,768 |

Cash flows provided by operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $378.7 million to $876.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022, which was attributable to our normal operating cycle. See Results of Operations above for more information on the factors driving these changes.
Cash flows used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities of $923.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily the result of the exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties of $518.9 million, deposits for the Acquisitions of $352.5 million, and the acquisitions of oil and natural gas properties of $51.2 million.
Net cash used in investing activities of $733.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily the result of the exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties of $467.2 million and the acquisitions of oil and natural gas properties of $303.6 million, partially offset by cash acquired of $44.3 million.
Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities of $2.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to proceeds from the issuance of the Acquisition Senior Notes of $2.7 billion, partially offset by dividends paid of $347.5 million, the repurchase and retirement of common stock of $320.3 million, and the payment of employee tax withholdings in exchange for the return of common stock of $12.6 million.
Net cash used in financing activities of $336.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily the result of dividends paid of $219.8 million, the optional redemption of the 7.5% Senior Notes due 2026 principal of $100.0 million, and the payment of employee tax withholdings in exchange for the return of common stock of $15.7 million.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Reconciliation of EBITDAX to Net Income
Adjusted EBITDAX represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, exploration expense, and other non-cash and non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDAX excludes certain items that we believe affect the comparability of operating results and can exclude items that are generally non-recurring in nature or whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP measure that we present because we believe it provides useful additional information to investors and analysts, as a performance measure, for analysis of our ability to internally generate funds for exploration, development, acquisitions, and to service debt. We are also subject to financial covenants under our Credit Facility based on adjusted EBITDAX ratios. See Note 5 - Long-Term Debt under Part I, Item 1 of this report for more information about financial covenants under our Credit Facility. In addition, adjusted EBITDAX is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, net cash provided by operating activities, or other profitability or liquidity measures prepared under GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDAX excludes some, but not all items that affect net income and may vary among companies, the adjusted EBITDAX amounts presented may not be comparable to similar metrics of other companies.

Reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Free cash flow is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in current assets and liabilities and less exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties, changes in working capital related to capital expenditures, and purchases of carbon offsets. We believe that free cash flow provides additional information that may be useful to investors in evaluating our ability to generate cash from our existing oil and natural gas assets to fund future exploration and development activities and to return cash to shareholders. Free cash flow is a supplemental measure of liquidity and should not be viewed as a substitute for cash flows from operations because it excludes certain required cash expenditures.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net cash provided by operating activities to the non-GAAP financial measure of free cash flow (in thousands):

Critical Accounting Estimates
Information regarding our critical accounting estimates is contained in Part II, Item 7 of our 2022 Form 10-K. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, there were no significant changes in the application of critical accounting policies.
Material Commitments
There have been no significant changes from our 2022 Form 10-K in our obligations and commitments, other than what is disclosed within Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies and Note 13 - Leases under Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Oil and Natural Gas Price Risk
Our financial condition, results of operations, and capital resources are highly dependent upon the prevailing market prices of oil and natural gas. These commodity prices are subject to wide fluctuations and market uncertainties due to a variety of factors that are beyond our control. Factors influencing oil and natural gas prices include the level of global demand for oil and natural gas, the global supply of oil and natural gas, the establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil exporting countries, weather conditions which determine the demand for natural gas, the price and availability of alternative fuels, local and global politics, and overall economic conditions. It is impossible to predict future oil and natural gas prices with any degree of certainty. Sustained weakness in oil and natural gas prices may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and may also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas reserves that we can produce economically. Any reduction in our oil and natural gas reserves, including reductions due to price fluctuations, can have an adverse effect on our ability to obtain capital for our exploration and development activities. Similarly, any improvements in oil and natural gas prices can have a favorable impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and capital resources.
Commodity Price Derivative Contracts
Our primary commodity risk management objective is to protect the Company’s balance sheet. We periodically enter into derivative contracts for oil, natural gas, and NGL using NYMEX futures or over-the-counter derivative financial instruments. The types of derivative instruments that we use include swaps, collars, basis protection swaps, and puts. Upon settlement of the contract(s), if the relevant market commodity price exceeds our contracted swap price, or the collar’s ceiling strike price, we are required to pay our counterparty the difference for the volume of production associated with the contract. Generally, this payment is made up to 15 business days prior to the receipt of cash payments from our customers. This could have an adverse impact on our cash flows for the period between derivative settlements and payments for revenue earned. While we may reduce the potential negative impact of lower commodity prices, we may also be prevented from realizing the benefits of favorable price changes in the physical market. Please refer to the Note 9 - Derivatives under Part I, Item 1 of this report for summary derivative activity tables.
Interest Rates
As of June 30, 2023 and on the filing date of this report, we had zero and $750.0 million, respectively, outstanding on our Credit Facility. Borrowings under our Credit Facility bear interest at a fluctuating rate that is tied to an Alternate Base Rate or Secured Overnight Financing Rate, at our option. Any increases in these interest rates can have an adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows. As of June 30, 2023 and through the filing date of this report, the Company was in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants under the Credit Facility.
Counterparty and Customer Credit Risk
In connection with our derivatives activity, we have exposure to financial institutions in the form of derivative transactions. As of June 30, 2023 and on the filing date of this report, our derivative contracts have been executed with 10 and 15 counterparties, respectively, all of which are members of the Credit Facility lender group and have investment grade credit ratings. However, if our counterparties fail to perform their obligations under the contracts, we could suffer financial loss.
We are also subject to credit risk due to concentration of our oil and natural gas receivables with certain significant customers. The inability or failure of our significant customers to meet their obligations to us or their insolvency or liquidation may adversely affect our financial results. We review the credit rating, payment history, and financial resources of our customers, but we do not require our customers to post collateral.

Table of Contents
Marketability of Our Production
The marketability of our production depends in part upon the availability, proximity, and capacity of third-party refineries, access to regional trucking, pipeline and rail infrastructure, natural gas gathering systems, and processing facilities. We deliver crude oil and natural gas produced through trucking services, pipelines, and rail facilities that we do not own. The lack of availability or capacity on these systems and facilities could reduce the price offered for our production or result in the shut-in of producing wells or the delay or discontinuance of development plans for properties.
A portion of our production may also be interrupted, or shut in, from time to time for numerous other reasons, including as a result of accidents, weather, field labor issues or strikes, or we might voluntarily curtail production in response to market conditions. If a substantial amount of our production is interrupted at the same time, it could adversely affect our cash flow.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers and internal audit function, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. To assist management, we have established an internal audit function to verify and monitor our internal controls and procedures. The Company’s internal control system is supported by written policies and procedures, contains self-monitoring mechanisms, and is audited by the internal audit function.
