Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Basis of Presentation	Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization Crescent is a differentiated U.S. energy company committed to delivering value for shareholders through a disciplined growth through acquisition strategy and consistent return of capital. Our long-life, balanced portfolio combines stable cash flows from low-decline production with deep, high-quality development inventory. Our activities are focused in Texas and the Rocky Mountain region. Corporate Structure Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CRGY.” We are structured as an “Up-C,” and Crescent is a holding company, the sole material asset of which are of units ("OpCo Units") of Crescent Energy OpCo LLC ("OpCo"). The assets and liabilities of OpCo represent substantially all our consolidated assets and liabilities, with the exception of certain current and deferred taxes and certain liabilities under the Management Agreement, as defined within NOTE 14 - Related Party Transactions. Certain restrictions and covenants related to the transfer of assets from OpCo are discussed further in NOTE 8 - Debt. Shares of Crescent Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock") have both voting and economic rights with respect to Crescent. Holders of Crescent Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"), which shares of Class B Common Stock have voting (but no economic) rights with respect to Crescent, hold a corresponding amount of economic, non-voting OpCo Units. OpCo Units may be redeemed or exchanged for Class A Common Stock or, at our election, cash on the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of OpCo (“OpCo LLC Agreement”). Additionally, an affiliate KKR & Co. Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the "KKR Group") is the sole holder of Crescent's non-economic Series I preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, which entitles the holder thereof to appoint the Board of Directors of Crescent and to certain other approval rights. Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after the elimination of intercompany transactions and balances and are presented in accordance with U.S. general accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We have no elements of other comprehensive income for the periods presented. Crescent is a holding company that conducts substantially all of its business through its consolidated subsidiaries, including (i) OpCo, which, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, is owned approximately 74% and 51% by Crescent and approximately 26% and 49% by holders of our redeemable noncontrolling interests representing former owners of Independence, and (ii) Crescent Energy Finance LLC, OpCo's wholly owned subsidiary. Crescent and OpCo have no operations, or material cash flows, assets or liabilities other than their investment in Crescent Energy Finance LLC. As the sole managing member of OpCo, Crescent is responsible for all operational, management and administrative decisions related to OpCo’s business. Because the unit holders of OpCo lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, OpCo was determined to be a variable interest entity. Crescent is considered the primary beneficiary of OpCo as it has both the power to direct OpCo and the right to receive benefits from OpCo. As a result, Crescent consolidates the financial results of OpCo and its subsidiaries, including Crescent Energy Finance LLC. See “— Corporate Structure” above for more information regarding our corporate structure. The financial statements include undivided interests in oil and natural gas properties. We account for our share of oil and natural gas properties by reporting our proportionate share of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs, and cash flows within the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows.
