Acquisitions Acquisitions
Delaware Gathering (formerly 3 Bear)
We completed the Delaware Gathering Acquisition on June 1, 2022, in which we acquired crude oil and natural gas gathering, processing, and transportation and storage operations, as well as water disposal and recycling operations, located in the Delaware Basin of New Mexico. The purchase price for the Delaware Gathering Acquisition was $628.3 million. The Delaware Gathering Acquisition was financed through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the DKL Credit Facility.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we incurred no incremental direct acquisition and integration costs.
Our consolidated financial and operating results reflect the Delaware Gathering Acquisition operations beginning June 1, 2022. Our results of operations included revenue and net income of $44.3 million and $11.5 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
The Delaware Gathering Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill.
Determination of Purchase Price

Purchase Price Allocation
The following table summarizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Delaware Gathering Acquisition as of June 1, 2022 (in thousands):
Assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents$2,678 
Accounts receivables, net28,859 
Inventories1,836 
Other current assets986 
Property, plant and equipment382,799 
Operating lease right-of-use assets7,427 
Goodwill14,848 
Customer relationship intangible, net210,000 
Rights-of-way13,490 
Other non-current assets500
Total assets acquired663,423 
Liabilities assumed:
Accounts payable8,020 
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities22,382 
Current portion of operating lease liabilities1,029 
Asset retirement obligations2,261 
Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion1,431 
Total liabilities assumed35,123 
Fair value of net assets acquired$628,300 
These fair value estimates are preliminary and therefore, the final fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the resulting effect on our financial position may change once all necessary information has become available, the final working capital adjustment is complete, and we finalize our valuations. To the extent possible, estimates have been considered and recorded, as appropriate, for the items above based on the information available as of March 31, 2023. We will continue to evaluate these items until they are satisfactorily resolved and adjust our purchase price allocation accordingly, within the allowable measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition), as defined by Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805").
The fair value of property, plant and equipment was based on the combination of the cost and market approaches. Key assumptions in the cost approach include determining the replacement cost by evaluating recently published data and adjusting replacement cost for physical deterioration, functional and economic obsolescence. We used the market approach to measure the value of certain assets through an analysis of recent sales or offerings of comparable properties.
The fair value of customer relationships was based on the income approach. Key assumptions in the income approach include projected revenue attributable to customer relationships, attrition rate, operating margins and discount rates.
The fair values discussed above were based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and, therefore, represent Level 3 measurements.
The fair values of all other current assets and payables were equivalent to their carrying values due to their short-term nature.
The goodwill recognized in the Delaware Gathering Acquisition is primarily attributable to enhancing our third party revenues, further diversification of our customer and product mix, expanding our footprint into the Delaware basin and bolstering our Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") optionality through furthering carbon capture opportunities and greenhouse gas reduction projects currently underway. This goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill related to the Delaware Gathering Acquisition is included in the Gathering and Processing segment.
Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Partnership assuming the Delaware Gathering Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been adjusted to give effect to certain pro forma adjustments that are directly related to the Delaware Gathering Acquisition based on available information and certain assumptions that management believes are factually supportable. The most significant pro forma adjustments relate to (i) incremental interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs associated with revolving credit facility borrowings incurred in connection with the Delaware Gathering Acquisition, (ii) incremental depreciation resulting from the estimated fair values of acquired property, plant and equipment, (iii) incremental amortization resulting from the estimated fair value of the acquired customer relationship intangibles, (iv) accounting policy alignment and (v) transaction costs. The unaudited pro forma financial information excludes any expected cost savings or other synergies as a result of the Delaware Gathering Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the Delaware Gathering Acquisition been effective as of the date presented, nor is it indicative of future operating results of the combined company. Actual results may differ significantly from the unaudited pro forma financial information.
