Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Except for statements of historical fact, all statements in this Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words like “may,” “could,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “pursue,” “target,” “continue,” the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. The absence of such words or expressions does not necessarily mean the statements are not forward-looking.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are largely based on our current expectations, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by the management of our general partner. Although we believe such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, statements made regarding future results are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to numerous assumptions, uncertainties and risks that are beyond our control. Actual outcomes and results may be materially different from the results stated or implied in such forward-looking statements included in this report. You should not put any undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. All forward-looking information in this Form 10-Q and subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.

Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations reflected in the forward looking statements include, among others:

•our ability to successfully execute our business, acquisition and financing strategies, including our business strategy to focus on the ongoing energy transition in the industries in which we operate;

•our ability to successfully meet our future funding obligations in connection with HOBO Renewable Diesel LLC’s initial project and in connection with the Levo JV (as defined in Note 6 “Derivative and Financial Instruments”);

•changes in general economic conditions, including market and macro-economic disruptions resulting from (i) recent inflation increases, (ii) ongoing supply chain disruptions and (iii) the ongoing pandemic caused by a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”), including resurgences and variants of the virus, and related governmental and consumer responses thereto;

•the ability of our customers to meet their drilling and development plans on a timely basis, or at all, and perform under gathering, processing and other agreements;

•the creditworthiness and performance of our counterparties, including financial institutions, operating partners, customers and other counterparties;

•our ability to grow enterprise value;

•the ability of our partners to perform under our joint ventures;

•the availability, proximity and capacity of, and costs associated with, gathering, processing, compression and transportation facilities;

•our ability to access the credit and capital markets to obtain financing on terms we deem acceptable, if at all, and to otherwise satisfy our capital expenditure requirements;

•the timing and extent of changes in prices for, and demand for, natural gas, NGLs and oil;

•competition in the oil and natural gas industry for employees and other personnel, equipment, materials and services and, related thereto, the availability and cost of employees and other personnel, equipment, materials and services;

•the extent to which our assets operated by others are operated successfully and economically;

•our ability to compete with other companies in the oil and natural gas and energy transition infrastructure industries;

5

•the impact of, and changes in, government policies, laws and regulations, including tax laws and regulations, environmental laws and regulations relating to air emissions, waste disposal, hydraulic fracturing and access to and use of water, laws and regulations imposing conditions and restrictions on drilling and completion operations;

•unexpected results of litigation filed against us or other legal proceedings we are involved in;

•disruptions due to extreme weather conditions, such as extreme temperatures, rainfall, hurricanes or tornadoes;

•the extent to which we incur uninsured losses and liabilities or losses and liabilities in excess of our insurance coverage; and

•the other factors described under “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and in our other public filings with the SEC.

Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure any reader that such statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and other than as required by law, we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Organization

We are a publicly-traded limited partnership formed in 2005 focused on the acquisition, development, ownership and operation of infrastructure critical to the transition of energy supply to lower carbon sources. We own natural gas gathering systems, pipelines, and processing facilities in South Texas and continue to pursue energy transition infrastructure opportunities. Our common units are currently listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “SNMP.”

On February 26, 2021, in connection with our management team’s focus on expanding our business strategy to focus on the ongoing energy transition in the industries in which we operate, we changed our name to Evolve Transition Infrastructure LP and our general partner changed its name to Evolve Transition Infrastructure GP LLC.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Accounting policies used by us conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of us and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of losses. Additionally, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which changed the effective date for certain issuers to annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Liquidity and Going Concern

11

The Partnership’s inability to generate sufficient liquidity to meet future debt obligations raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The Credit Agreement matures September 30, 2023 and our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon our ability to either (i) refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) obtain adequate new debt or equity financing to repay the Credit Agreement in full at maturity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of substantial doubt as to the Partnership’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Partnership cannot continue as a going concern, adjustments to the carrying values and classification of its assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses could be required and could be material.

Use of Estimates

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The estimates that are particularly significant to our financial statements include estimates of our depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset retirement obligations; certain revenues and operating expenses; and fair values of assets and liabilities. As fair value is a market-based measurement, it is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment using the data available. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Such estimates and assumptions are adjusted when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from the estimates. Any changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

3. DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Kodiak Sale

On March 11, 2022, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Kodiak Gas Services, LLC (“Kodiak”), pursuant to which we sold to Kodiak natural gas compression equipment for a purchase price of $250 thousand. We recorded a loss of approximately $2.2 million on the sale.

On May 9, 2022, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Kodiak, pursuant to which we sold to Kodiak natural gas compression equipment for a purchase price of $250 thousand. We recorded a loss of approximately $2.2 million on the sale.

Palmetto Divestiture

On April 30, 2021, but effective March 1, 2021 (the “Palmetto Effective Time”), SEP Holdings IV, LLC (“SEP IV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership entered into a purchase agreement (the “Palmetto PSA”) with Westhoff Palmetto LP (“Palmetto Buyer”), pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Palmetto Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Gonzales and Dewitt Counties, Texas (the “Palmetto Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $11.5 million, including the impact of final post-closing adjustments (the “Palmetto Divestiture”). Pursuant to the Palmetto PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Palmetto Buyer agreed to assume all obligations relating to the Palmetto Assets that arose on or after the Palmetto Effective Time. The Palmetto PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Palmetto Buyer, and SEP IV and Palmetto Buyer have agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Palmetto Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Palmetto PSA and we recorded a gain of approximately $0.3 million on the sale.

Maverick Divestitures

On April 30, 2021, but effective March 1, 2021 (the “Maverick Effective Time”), SEP IV entered into a purchase agreement (the “Maverick PSA”) with Bayshore Energy TX LLC (“Maverick Buyer”), pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala County, Texas (the “Maverick 1 Assets”)

12

for a base purchase price of approximately $2.8 million, prior to post-closing adjustments (the “Maverick 1 Divestiture”). Pursuant to the Maverick PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations relating to the Maverick 1 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 1 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick PSA.

Also on April 30, 2021, SEP IV entered into a letter agreement with Maverick Buyer (the “Maverick Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which SEP IV agreed to sell additional other specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala and Dimmit Counties, Texas (the “Maverick 2 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $1.4 million, prior to final post-closing adjustments (the “Maverick 2 Divestiture”). The closing of the Maverick 2 Divestiture was conditioned upon SEP IV obtaining certain consents and complying with other preferential rights related to the Maverick 2 Assets. Following the entrance into the Maverick Letter Agreement, SEP IV complied with the preferential rights and obtained multiple consents related to the Maverick 2 Assets. SEP IV did not obtain one of the required consents and, as a result, the Maverick 2 Assets subject to such consent were removed from the Maverick 2 Assets included in the Maverick 2 Divestiture (the “Updated Maverick 2 Assets”) and the base purchase price was adjusted downward by approximately $31,000.

On May 14, 2021, but effective as of the Maverick Effective Time, SEP IV and Maverick Buyer entered into a purchase agreement (the “Maverick 2 PSA”) pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer the Updated Maverick 2 Assets. Pursuant to the Maverick 2 PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations and liabilities related to the Updated Maverick 2 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick 2 PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 2 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick 2 PSA.

On August 13, 2021, but effective as of the Maverick Effective Time, SEP IV and Maverick Buyer entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Maverick 3 PSA”) pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala County, Texas, including the remaining Maverick 2 Assets excluded from the original closing of the Maverick 2 Divestiture (the “Maverick 3 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $31,000, prior to final post-closing adjustments (the “Maverick 3 Divestiture,” and together with the Maverick 1 Divestiture and the Maverick 2 Divestiture, the “Maverick Divestitures”). Pursuant to the Maverick 3 PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations and liabilities related to the Maverick 3 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick 3 PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 3 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick 3 PSA. We recorded a net loss of approximately $0.3 million related to the Maverick Divestitures.

4. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The unit of account in ASC 606 is a performance obligation, which is a promise in a contract to transfer to a customer either a distinct good or service (or bundle of goods or services) or a series of distinct goods or services provided over a period of time. ASC 606 requires that a contract’s transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, is to be allocated to each performance obligation in the contract based on relative standalone selling prices and recognized as revenue when (point in time) or as (over time) the performance obligation is satisfied.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Gathering Agreement is classified as an operating lease and is accounted for under ASC 842, “Leases” and is reported as gathering and transportation lease revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized revenue of approximately $7.0 million and $29.4 million, respectively, under ASC 842. Mesquite accounted for 100% of total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. We are highly dependent upon Mesquite as our only customer.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we did not record any revenue under ASC 606. We disaggregate revenue based on revenue and product type. In selecting the disaggregation categories, we considered a number of factors, including disclosures presented outside the financial statements, such as in our earnings release and investor presentations, information reviewed internally for evaluating performance, and other factors used by the Partnership or the users of its financial statements to evaluate performance or allocate resources. We have concluded that disaggregating revenue by revenue and product type appropriately depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

We account for income from our unconsolidated equity method investments as earnings from equity investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Earnings from these equity method investments are further discussed in Note 11 “Investments.”

14

Contract Balances

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our accounts receivable were approximately $2.3 million and $19.1 million, respectively, under ASC 842.

On May 27, 2022, but effective as of April 1, 2022, we entered into the A&R Gathering Agreement, a related side letter agreement and the Settlement Agreement (collectively the “Settlement Documents”). We accounted for the Settlement Documents as a single contract modification of the Original Gathering Agreement under the contract combination guidance in ASC 842.

Prior to the execution of the A&R Gathering Agreement, Mesquite disputed the tariff rate for interruptible throughput volumes from Eastern Catarina (as defined below) billed from July 1, 2021 forward, which resulted in a disputed receivable balance of approximately $26.7 million. Under the terms of the A&R Gathering Agreement and other agreements concurrently entered into, approximately $15.1 million of the disputed receivable balance was paid in cash. In addition, the A&R Gathering Agreement amended key provisions of the Original Gathering Agreement in a manner favorable to us. Principally, it provides for, among other things, a new dedication of the eastern portion of Mesquite’s acreage position in Dimmit, La Salle and Webb counties, Texas (“Eastern Catarina”), whereas only Western Catarina (as defined in Note 10 “Intangible Assets”) was dedicated under the Original Gathering Agreement. The A&R Gathering Agreement also established gathering and processing fee rates for both Western Catarina and Eastern Catarina as well as rates for new production from the Dedicated Acreage (as defined in the A&R Gathering Agreement) and from the Subject Wells (as defined in the A&R Gathering Agreement).

In accordance with ASC 842, the portion of the disputed receivable balance of approximately $11.6 million we did not collect in cash was reclassified as a deferred lease incentive, reflective of the non-distinct nature of the contractual concessions received from Mesquite in the A&R Gathering Agreement. The deferred lease incentive is being amortized over the remaining term of the A&R Gathering Agreement.

Amortization of the deferred A&R Gathering Agreement lease incentive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. This amortization is recorded as a reduction to gathering and transportation lease revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Under our sales contracts, we invoice customers after our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our accounts receivables from contracts with customers was zero.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Measurements of fair value of derivative instruments are classified according to the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1: Measured based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Active markets are considered those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Measured based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management’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 levels.

15

The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2022
	Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Fair Value
Fair value of warrants
Nuvve Holding Warrants	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—
Other liabilities
Stonepeak Warrant	—		(7,045)		—		(7,045)
Total	$	—	$	(7,045)	$	—	$	(7,045)

The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2021
	Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Fair Value
Fair value of warrants
Nuvve Holding Warrants	$	—	$	664	$	—	$	664
Other liabilities
Stonepeak Warrant	—		(7,197)		—		(7,197)
Total	$	—	$	(6,533)	$	—	$	(6,533)

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets and current liabilities approximated their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Partnership follows the provisions of Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurement,” for non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. 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 under the fair value hierarchy. We periodically review oil and natural gas properties and related equipment for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Partnership’s asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 9 “Asset Retirement Obligation.”

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies described below. We prioritize the use of the highest level inputs available in determining fair value such that fair value measurements are determined using the highest and best use as determined by market participants and the assumptions that they would use in determining fair value.

Credit Agreement – We believe that the carrying value of our Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 7 “Debt”) approximates its fair value because the interest rates on the debt approximate market interest rates for debt with similar terms. The debt is classified as a Level 2 input in the fair value hierarchy and represents the amount at which the instrument could be valued in an exchange during a current transaction between willing parties. The Credit Agreement is discussed further in Note 7 “Debt.”

16

Nuvve Holding Warrants – The Nuvve Holding Warrants (as defined in Note 6 “Derivative and Financial Instruments”) are valued using the value of Nuvve’s common stock and the Nuvve Holding Warrants exercise price. We have therefore classified the fair value measurement of the Nuvve Holding Warrants as Level 2 and is presented within fair value of warrants on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022, the Nuvve Holding Warrants fair value was determined to be zero.

Stonepeak Warrant – As part of the Exchange (as defined in Note 15 “Partners’ Deficit”), the Partnership issued to Stonepeak Catarina the Stonepeak Warrant which entitles the holder to receive junior securities of the Partnership representing ten percent of junior securities deemed outstanding when exercised. The Stonepeak Warrant is valued using ten percent of the Partnership’s junior securities deemed outstanding and the common unit price as of the balance sheet date. We have therefore classified the fair value measurement of the Stonepeak Warrant as Level 2 and is presented within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Earnout Derivative – As part of the Carnero Gathering Transaction (as defined in Note 11 “Investments”), we are required to pay Mesquite an earnout based on natural gas received above a threshold volume and tariff at designated delivery points from Mesquite and other producers. The earnout derivative was valued through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation model which utilized observable inputs such as the earnout price and volume commitment, as well as unobservable inputs related to the weighted probabilities of various throughput scenarios. We have therefore classified the fair value measurements of the earnout derivative as Level 3 inputs. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the earnout was determined to be zero.

6. DERIVATIVE AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

On May 17, 2021, the Partnership entered into a letter agreement (the “Levo Letter Agreement”) with Nuvve Holding Corp. (“Nuvve Holding”) and Stonepeak Rocket Holdings LP, relating to the proposed formation of a joint venture, Levo Mobility LLC (“Levo” and such proposed joint venture, the “Levo JV”). In connection with the Levo Letter Agreement, on May 17, 2021, Nuvve Holding issued ten-year warrants to the Partnership as follows: (i) Series B Warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, which are fully vested upon issuance; (ii) Series C warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $15.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $125 million in aggregate capital expenditures; (iii) Series D warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $250 million in aggregate capital expenditures; (iv) Series E warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $30.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $375 million in aggregate capital expenditures; and (v) Series F warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $40.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $500 million in aggregate capital expenditures (collectively, the “Nuvve Holding Warrants”).The Nuvve Holding Warrants are accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the Nuvve Holding Warrants’ fair value are recognized in earnings and included in “Other (income) expense” on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the changes in fair value of the Partnership’s Nuvve Holding Warrants for the periods indicated (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022		Year Ended December 31, 2021
Beginning fair value of warrants	$	664	$	—
Net gain (loss) on warrants	(664)		664
Ending fair value of warrants	$	—	$	664

Under Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” all derivative instruments are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value as either short-term or long-term assets or liabilities based on their anticipated settlement date. Changes in the derivatives’ fair values are recognized in earnings.

17

Earnout Derivative

See Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements” for disclosure regarding the earnout derivative.

7. DEBT

Credit Agreement

We have entered into a credit facility with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto, as amended through the date of the Twelfth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 20, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides a quarterly amortizing term loan of $65.0 million (the “Term Loan”) and a maximum revolving credit amount of $5.0 million (the “Revolving Loan”). The Credit Agreement matures on September 30, 2023. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by various mortgages of midstream properties that we own as well as various security and pledge agreements among us, certain of our subsidiaries and the administrative agent.

The Credit Agreement is a current liability that matures on September 30, 2023. We expect to refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement prior to its maturity date. However, we may not be able to refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement or, if we are able to refinance or extend the maturity, we may not be able to do so with borrowing and debt issue costs, terms, covenants, restrictions, commitment amount or a borrowing base favorable to us.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for limited direct investment in midstream properties, acquisitions, and working capital and general business purposes. The Credit Agreement has a sub-limit of up to $2.5 million which may be used for the issuance of letters of credit. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $22.2 million of debt outstanding, comprised solely of the Term Loan. We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan of (i) $3.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2021, and (ii) $2.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2022, we have met our mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan through December 31, 2022. The maximum revolving credit amount is $5.0 million leaving us with approximately $5.0 million in unused borrowing capacity. There were no letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2022.

At our election, interest for borrowings under the Credit Agreement are determined by reference to (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin between 2.75% and 3.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA or (ii) a domestic bank rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin between 1.75% and 2.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA plus (iii) a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum based on the unutilized portion of the Revolving Loan. Interest on the borrowings for ABR loans and the commitment fee are generally payable quarterly. Interest on the borrowings for LIBOR loans are generally payable at the applicable maturity date.

The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that limit, among other things, our ability to incur certain indebtedness, grant certain liens, merge or consolidate, sell all or substantially all of our assets, make certain loans, acquisitions, capital expenditures and investments, and pay distributions to unitholders.

In addition, we are required to maintain the following financial covenants:

•current assets to current liabilities, excluding any current maturities of debt, of at least 1.0 to 1.0 at all times; and

•senior secured net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, of not greater than 3.25 to 1.00.

The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties when made or when deemed made, violation of covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency events, certain unsatisfied judgments, loan documents not being valid and a change in control. A change in control is generally defined as the occurrence of one of the following events: (i) our existing general partner ceases to be our sole general partner or (ii) certain specified persons shall cease to own more than 50% of the equity interests of our general partner or shall cease to control our general partner. If an event of default occurs, the lenders will be able to accelerate the maturity of the Credit Agreement and exercise other rights and remedies.

18

At September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. We monitor compliance on an ongoing basis. If we are unable to remain in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our Credit Agreement or maintain the required ratios discussed above, the lenders could call an event of default and accelerate the outstanding debt under the terms of the Credit Agreement, such that our outstanding debt could become then due and payable. We may request waivers of compliance from the violated financial covenants from the lenders, but there is no assurance that such waivers would be granted.

We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of the outstanding principal on the Term Loan and we expect these quarterly amortizing payments will be made from our operating cash flows and other capital resources. However, there can be no assurance that operations and other capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to make these mandatory amortizing payments.

Debt Issuance Costs

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our unamortized debt issuance costs were approximately $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. These costs are amortized to interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations over the life of our Credit Agreement. Amortization of debt issuance costs recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

8. GATHERING AND TRANSPORTATION ASSETS

Gathering and transportation assets consisted of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Gathering and transportation assets
Midstream assets	$	181,795	$	188,952
Less: Accumulated depreciation and impairment	(92,897)		(90,717)
Total gathering and transportation assets, net	$	88,898	$	98,235

Depreciation and Amortization. Gathering and transportation assets, are stated at historical acquisition cost, net of any impairments, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, which range from three to 15 years for furniture and equipment, up to 36 years for gathering facilities, and up to 40 years for transportation assets.

Depreciation and amortization consisted of the following (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Depreciation and amortization of gathering and transportation assets	$	1,688	$	1,778	$	5,220	$	5,337
Amortization of intangible assets	2,737		3,365		8,839		10,093
Total depreciation and amortization	$	4,425	$	5,143	$	14,059	$	15,430

Impairment of Gathering and Transportation Assets. We perform a periodic review of gathering and transportation assets to identify facts and circumstances, or triggering events, that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Asset recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset or asset group with its expected future pre-tax undiscounted cash flows. These cash flow estimates require us to make projections and assumptions for many years into the future for pricing, demand, competition, operating cost and other factors. If the carrying amount exceeds the expected future undiscounted cash flows, we recognize an impairment equal to the excess of net book value over fair value. The determination of the fair value using present value techniques requires us to make projections and assumptions regarding the probability of a range of outcomes and the rates of interest used in the present value calculations. Any changes we make to these projections and assumptions could result in significant revisions to our evaluation of

19

recoverability of our gathering and transportation assets and the recognition of additional impairments. Upon disposition or retirement of gathering and transportation assets, any gain or loss is recorded to operations.

9. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

We recognize the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Each period, we accrete the ARO to its then present value. The associated asset retirement cost (“ARC”) is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of our oil and natural gas properties, equipment and facilities or gathering and transportation assets. Subsequently, the ARC is depreciated using the units-of-production method for production assets and the straight-line method for midstream assets. The AROs recorded by us relate to the plugging and abandonment of oil and natural gas wells and decommissioning of oil and natural gas gathering and other facilities.

Inherent in the fair value calculation of AROs are numerous assumptions and judgments including the ultimate settlement amounts, inflation factors, credit adjusted discount rates, timing of settlement and changes in the legal, regulatory, environmental and political environments. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions result in adjustments to the recorded fair value of the existing ARO, a corresponding adjustment is made to the ARC capitalized as part of gathering and transportation assets.

The following table is a reconciliation of changes in ARO for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022		Year Ended December 31, 2021
Asset retirement obligation, beginning balance	$	4,700	$	4,313
Accretion expense	312		387
Asset retirement obligation, ending balance	$	5,012	$	4,700

Additional AROs increase the liability associated with new oil and natural gas wells and other facilities as these obligations are incurred. Abandonments of oil and natural gas wells and other facilities reduce the liability for AROs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, there were no significant expenditures for abandonments and there were no assets legally restricted for purposes of settling existing AROs. During the year ended December 31, 2021, obligations were relieved as part of the Palmetto Divestiture and the Maverick Divestitures.

10. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are comprised of customer and marketing contracts. The intangible assets balance as of September 30, 2022 is related to the Gathering Agreement with Mesquite that was entered into as part of the acquisition of the Western Catarina gathering system. The Western Catarina gathering system (“Western Catarina Midstream”) is located on the western portion of Mesquite’s acreage position in Dimmit, La Salle and Webb counties, Texas (the western portion of such acreage, “Western Catarina”). Pursuant to the 15-year agreement, Mesquite tenders all of its crude oil, natural gas and other hydrocarbon-based product volumes produced in the Western Catarina of the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas for processing and transportation through Western Catarina Midstream, with a right to tender additional volumes outside of the dedicated acreage. These intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over the 15-year life of the agreement.

Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $8.8 million and $10.1 million, respectively. These costs are amortized to depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense in our

20

condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table is a reconciliation of changes in intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022		Year Ended December 31, 2021
Beginning balance	$	118,329	$	131,786
Amortization	(8,839)		(13,457)
Ending balance	$	109,490	$	118,329

11. INVESTMENTS

In July 2016, we completed a transaction pursuant to which we acquired from Mesquite a 50% interest in Carnero Gathering, LLC (“Carnero Gathering”), a joint venture that was 50% owned and operated by Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) (“Targa”), for an initial payment of approximately $37.0 million and the assumption of remaining capital commitments to Carnero Gathering, estimated at approximately $7.4 million as of the acquisition date (the “Carnero Gathering Transaction”). The fair value of the intangible asset for the contractual customer relationship related to Carnero Gathering was valued at approximately $13.0 million. This amount is being amortized over a contract term of 15 years and decreases earnings from equity investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As part of the Carnero Gathering Transaction, we are required to pay Mesquite an earnout based on natural gas received above a threshold volume and tariff at designated delivery points from Mesquite and other producers. See Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion of the earnout derivative.

In November 2016, we completed a transaction pursuant to which we acquired from Mesquite a 50% interest in Carnero Processing, LLC (“Carnero Processing”), a joint venture that was 50% owned and operated by Targa, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $55.5 million and the assumption of remaining capital contribution commitments to Carnero Processing, estimated at approximately $24.5 million as of the date of acquisition.

In May 2018, we executed a series of agreements with Targa and other parties pursuant to which, among other things: (1) the parties merged their respective 50% interests in Carnero Gathering and Carnero Processing (the “Carnero JV Transaction”) to form an expanded 50 / 50 joint venture in South Texas, within Carnero G&P, LLC (the “Carnero JV”), (2) Targa contributed 100% of the equity interest in the Silver Oak II Gas Processing Plant (“Silver Oak II”), located in Bee County, Texas, to the Carnero JV, which expands the processing capacity of the Carnero JV from 260 MMcf/d to 460 MMcf/d, (3) Targa contributed certain capacity in the 45 miles of high pressure natural gas gathering pipelines owned by Carnero Gathering that connect Western Catarina Midstream to nearby pipelines and the Raptor Gas Processing Facility (the “Carnero Gathering Line”) to the Carnero JV resulting in the Carnero JV owning all of the capacity in the Carnero Gathering Line, which has a design limit (without compression) of 400 MMcf/d, (4) the Carnero JV received a new dedication from Mesquite and its working interest partners of over 315,000 acres located in the Western Eagle Ford on Mesquite’s acreage in Dimmit, Webb, La Salle, Zavala and Maverick counties, Texas (such acreage is collectively referred to as Mesquite’s “Comanche Asset”) pursuant to a new long-term firm gas gathering and processing agreement. The agreement with Mesquite, which was approved by all of the unaffiliated Comanche Asset working interest partners, establishes commercial terms for the gathering of gas on the Carnero Gathering Line and processing at the Raptor Gas Processing Facility and Silver Oak II. Prior to execution of the agreement, volumes from the Comanche Asset were gathered and processed on an interruptible basis, with the processing capabilities of the Carnero JV limited by the capacity of the Raptor Gas Processing Facility. As a result of the Carnero JV Transaction, we now record our share of earnings and losses from the Carnero JV using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (“HLBV”) method of accounting. HLBV is a balance-sheet approach that calculates the amount we would have received if the Carnero JV were liquidated at book value at the end of each measurement period. The change in our allocated amount during the period is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the event of liquidation of the Carnero JV, available proceeds are first distributed to any priority return and unpaid capital associated with Silver Oak II, and then to members in accordance with their capital accounts.

As of September 30, 2022, the Partnership had paid approximately $124.7 million for its investment in the Carnero JV related to the initial payments and contributed capital. The Partnership has accounted for this investment using the equity method. Targa is the operator of the Carnero JV and has significant influence with respect to the normal day-to-day capital and operating decisions. We have included the investment balance in the equity investments caption on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Partnership recorded earnings

21

of approximately $0.7 million in equity investments from the Carnero JV, which was offset by approximately $0.3 million related to the amortization of the contractual customer intangible asset. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Partnership recorded earnings of approximately $6.6 million in equity investments from the Carnero JV, which was partially offset by approximately $0.9 million related to the amortization of the contractual customer intangible asset. We have included these equity method earnings in the earnings from equity investments line within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Cash distributions of approximately $11.7 million were received during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Summarized financial information of unconsolidated entities is as follows (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2022		2021
Sales	$	93,307	$	78,026
Total expenses	82,064		74,662
Net income	$	11,243	$	3,364

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As part of the Carnero Gathering Transaction, we are required to pay Mesquite an earnout based on natural gas received above a threshold volume and tariff at designated delivery points from Mesquite and other producers. This earnout has an approximate value of zero as of September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we made no payments to Mesquite related to the earnout.

13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Please read the disclosures under the headings “Relationship with Stonepeak,” “Relationship with Mesquite,” “Relationship with SP Holdings” and “Shared Services Agreement” in Note 14 “Related Party Transactions” of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for a more complete description of certain related party transactions that were entered into prior to 2022. Indirect costs billed by SP Holdings in connection with the Shared Services Agreement are recorded as general and administrative expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, indirect costs were recorded as a credit of approximately $2.5 million and as an expense of approximately $4.8 million, respectively.

14. UNIT-BASED COMPENSATION

The Sanchez Production Partners LP Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) allows for grants of restricted common units. Restricted common unit activity under the LTIP during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is presented in the following table:

	Number of Restricted Units	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Unit
Outstanding at December 31, 2021	4,254,082	$	1.24
Returned/Cancelled	(661,248)	1.18
Outstanding at September 30, 2022	3,592,834	$	1.25

In August 2022, 661,248 units were returned to the LTIP due to the departure of an officer of our general partner.

As of September 30, 2022, 21,009,694 common units remained available for future issuance to participants under the LTIP.

The Evolve Transition Infrastructure LP 2021 Equity Inducement Award Plan (the “Inducement Plan”) allows for grants of restricted common units. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, 2,589,888 restricted common units were forfeited and returned to the Inducement Plan, no restricted common units were issued under the Inducement Plan and

22

vesting is dependent upon certain performance conditions being met. As of September 30, 2022, there are 2,589,888 common units available for issuance to participants under the Inducement Plan.

	Number of Common Units
Outstanding at December 31, 2021	14,100,000
Returned/Cancelled	(2,589,888)
Outstanding at September 30, 2022	11,510,112

15. PARTNERS’ DEFICIT

Outstanding Units

As of September 30, 2022, we had 36,474,436 Class C Preferred Units outstanding and 197,864,414 common units outstanding which included 3,592,834 unvested restricted common units issued under the LTIP.

Common Unit Issuances

We entered into a letter agreement with SP Holdings providing that during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019 and continuing until the end of the fiscal quarter after the fiscal quarter in which we redeem all of our issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, SP Holdings agrees to delay receipt of its fees, not including reimbursement of costs. As of September 30, 2022, we have not redeemed any Class C Preferred Units and, as a result, we have not issued any common units to SP Holdings in connection with providing services under the Shared Services Agreement for any quarter following the quarter ended June 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2022, the number of units to be issued under the Shared Services Agreement is 18,479,407. At September 30, 2022, the value of these units was approximately $7.7 million and is recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in long term accrued liabilities - related entities.

Class C Preferred Units

On August 2, 2019, Stonepeak exchanged all of their current equity ownership for newly issued Class C Preferred Units and the Original Warrant in a private placement transaction (the “Exchange”).

The holders of the Class C Preferred Units receive a quarterly distribution of 14.0% per annum payable in cash. To the extent that Available Cash (as defined in our partnership agreement) is insufficient to pay the distribution in cash, all or a portion of the distribution may be paid in Class C Preferred PIK Units (as defined in our partnership agreement). Distributions are to be paid on or about the last day of each of February, May, August and November following the end of each quarter and are charged to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of January 1, 2022, Adjusted Available Cash (as defined in our partnership agreement) will be distributed to holders of the Class C Preferred Units to redeem a number of Class C Preferred Units to be determined based on the amount of Adjusted Available Cash. As of September 30, 2022, no Class C Preferred Units have been redeemed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded non-cash interest expense related to the Class C Preferred Units of approximately $43.2 million and $76.3 million, respectively, which are recorded in interest expense on the income statement.

The Class C Preferred Units are accounted for as a current liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet consisting of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Class C Preferred Units, beginning balance	$	397,387	$	345,205
Accretion of discount	—		52,182
Class C Preferred Units, ending balance	$	397,387	$	397,387

On November 16, 2020, the Partnership and Stonepeak entered into the Stonepeak Letter Agreement wherein the parties agreed that the distribution on the Class C Preferred Units for the three months ended September 30, 2020 would be

23

paid in common units instead of Class C Preferred PIK Units, cash or a combination thereof. The Stonepeak Letter Agreement also provides that Stonepeak will be able to elect to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units in common units for any quarter following the third quarter of 2020 by providing written notice to the Partnership no later than the last day of the calendar month following the end of such quarter.

The table below reflects distributions on Class C Preferred Units which were elected to be paid in common units related to the periods indicated.

Three Months Ended	Class C Preferred Distribution of Common Units	Date of Distribution
September 30, 2020	22,274,869	February 1, 2021
December 31, 2020	12,445,491	February 25, 2021
March 31, 2021	13,763,249	May 20, 2021

June 30, 2022	27,442,638	August 22, 2022

Stonepeak Warrant

On August 2, 2019, in connection with the Exchange, the Partnership issued to Stonepeak the Original Warrant, which entitles the holder to receive junior securities of the Partnership representing ten percent of junior securities deemed outstanding when exercised. The Stonepeak Warrant expires on the later of August 2, 2026 or 30 days following the full redemption of the Class C Preferred Units. There is no strike price associated with the exercise of the Stonepeak Warrant. The Stonepeak Warrant is accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC 480 and is presented within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of the Stonepeak Warrant are charged to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded a benefit of approximately $0.2 million and an expense of approximately $10.2 million, respectively related to the Stonepeak Warrant.

Earnings per Unit

Net income (loss) per common unit for the period is based on any distributions that are made to the unitholders (common units) plus an allocation of undistributed net income (loss) based on provisions of our partnership agreement, divided by the weighted average number of common units outstanding. Unit-based awards granted but unvested are eligible to receive distributions. The underlying unvested restricted unit awards are considered participating securities for purposes of determining net income (loss) per unit. Undistributed income is allocated to participating securities based on the proportional relationship of the weighted average number of common units and unit-based awards outstanding. Undistributed losses (including those resulting from distributions in excess of net income) are allocated to common units based on provisions of our partnership agreement. Undistributed losses are not allocated to unvested restricted unit awards as they do not participate in net losses. Distributions declared and paid in the period are treated as distributed earnings in the computation of earnings per common unit even though cash distributions are not necessarily derived from current or prior period earnings.

The Partnership’s general partner does not have an economic interest in the Partnership and, therefore, does not participate in the Partnership’s net income.

16. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The Partnership’s investment in the Carnero JV represents a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that could expose the Partnership to losses. The amount of losses the Partnership could be exposed to from the Carnero JV is limited to the capital investment of approximately $14.5 million.

24

As of September 30, 2022, the Partnership had invested approximately $124.7 million in the Carnero JV and no debt has been incurred by the Carnero JV. We have included this VIE in equity investments on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Below is a tabular comparison of the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the VIE and the Partnership’s maximum exposure to loss as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Acquisitions, earnout and capital investments	$	128,781	$	128,483
Earnings in equity investments	(17,930)		(23,618)
Distributions received	(96,338)		(84,667)
Maximum exposure to loss	$	14,513	$	20,198

17. LEASES

On November 9, 2021, the Partnership entered into a Gas Compression Agreement with Kodiak to lease gas compression units from Kodiak (the “Gas Compression Agreement”). All leased units have a 36 month primary term commencing on the startup date. Following the primary term of the leased units, the Gas Compression Agreement calls for continuation of the term on a month-to-month basis until terminated with 30 days written notice.

18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 28, 2022, the Partnership received written notice of Stonepeak’s election to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 in common units. The aggregate distribution of 27,442,638 common units (the “Q322 Stonepeak Units”) is payable to Stonepeak Catarina following satisfaction of certain issuance conditions, including, among other things, the compliance by the Partnership and Stonepeak with any applicable federal securities laws applicable to the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units.

Following the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units, Stonepeak will own (i) 200,107,218 common units, representing approximately 80.3% of the issued and outstanding common units, (ii) all of the issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, (iii) the Warrant, (iv) the non-economic general partner interest in us, and (v) all of our incentive distribution rights. As previously disclosed, if at any time Stonepeak holds more than 80% of our outstanding common units and completes the Stonepeak LCR Transfer (as defined below), Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner to exercise its right to acquire all, but not less than all, of our common units held by persons other than our general partner and its controlled affiliates (“limited call right”). As Stonepeak will hold more than 80% of our outstanding common units following the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units, Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner to exercise its limited call right at any time after Stonepeak transfers all of the common units held by it to our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner (the “Stonepeak LCR Transfer”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stonepeak has informed us that they have no current intention to cause our general partner to exercise its limited call right or take any other actions in furtherance thereof, such as completion of the Stonepeak LCR Transfer. For additional information regarding risks associated with the limited call right please see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Certain events may result in our general partner exercising its limited call right, which may require common unitholders to sell their common units at an undesirable time or price.”

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the summary of significant accounting policies and notes included herein and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, forecasts, guidance, beliefs and expected performance. The “forward-looking statements” are dependent upon events, risks and uncertainties that may be outside our control. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these “forward-looking statements.” Please read “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

We are a publicly-traded limited partnership formed in 2005 focused on the acquisition, development, ownership and operation of infrastructure critical to the transition of energy supply to lower carbon sources. We own natural gas gathering systems, pipelines and processing facilities in South Texas and continue to pursue energy transition infrastructure opportunities. Our common units are currently listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “SNMP.”

On February 26, 2021, in connection with our management team’s focus on expanding our business strategy to focus on the ongoing energy transition in the industries in which we operate, we changed our name to Evolve Transition Infrastructure LP and our general partner changed its name to Evolve Transition Infrastructure GP LLC.

Developments during the Quarter Ended September 30, 2022

Amended and Restated Executive Services Agreement

On September 2, 2022, our general partner entered into an Amended and Restated Executive Services Agreement (the “Executive Services Agreement”) with Charles C. Ward, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of our general partner, which was approved by the Board on September 1, 2022.

Stonepeak Letter Agreement Election; Warrant Amendment 8

On July 29, 2022, we received written notice of Stonepeak Catarina’s election to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 in common units. The aggregate distribution of 27,442,638 common units was made to Stonepeak Catarina on August 22, 2022, following the satisfaction of certain issuance conditions.

On August 1, 2022, in connection with Stonepeak’s election above, we entered into Warrant Amendment 8 with Stonepeak Catarina to exclude from the Stonepeak Warrant 4,116,396 common units issuable under the Sanchez Production Partners LP Long-Term Incentive Plan.

How We Evaluate Our Operations

We evaluate our business on the basis of the following key measures:

•our throughput volumes on gathering systems upon acquiring those assets;

•our operating expenses; and

•our Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure (for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP financial measure please read “–Non-GAAP Financial Measures–Adjusted EBITDA”).

Throughput Volumes

Our management analyzes our performance based on the aggregate amount of throughput volumes on the gathering system. We must connect additional wells or well pads within Western Catarina, in order to maintain or increase throughput volumes on Western Catarina Midstream. Our success in connecting additional wells is impacted by successful drilling activity by Mesquite on the acreage dedicated to the Western Catarina gathering system (“Western Catarina Midstream”), our ability to secure volumes from Mesquite or third parties from new wells drilled on non-dedicated acreage, our ability to attract hydrocarbon volumes currently gathered by our competitors and our ability to cost-effectively construct or acquire new infrastructure. We own and operate a 30-mile natural gas pipeline with 400 MMcf/d capacity that

26

is designed to transport dry gas to multiple markets in South Texas (the “Seco Pipeline”). Currently there are not any commercial volumes transported on the Seco Pipeline. Future throughput volumes on the pipeline are dependent on execution of a new transportation agreement with Mesquite or execution of an agreement with a third party.

Operating Expenses

Our management seeks to maximize Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in part by minimizing operating expenses. These expenses are or will be comprised primarily of field operating costs (which generally consists of labor, vehicles, supervision, transportation, minor maintenance, tools and supplies expenses, among other items), compression expense, ad valorem taxes and other operating costs, some of which will be independent of the throughput volumes on the midstream gathering system but fluctuate depending on the scale of our operations during a specific period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Adjusted EBITDA

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, we use Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in this Form 10-Q. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and potential future results, particularly in light of the effect of various transactions effected by us. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted by: (i) interest (income) expense, net, which includes interest expense, interest expense net (gain) loss on interest rate derivative contracts, and interest (income); (ii) income tax expense (benefit); (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization; (iv) asset impairments; (v) accretion expense; (vi) (gain) loss on sale of assets; (vii) unit-based compensation expense; (viii) unit-based asset management fees; (ix) distributions in excess of equity earnings; (x) (gain) loss on mark-to-market activities; (xi) commodity derivatives settled early; (xii) (gain) loss on embedded derivatives; and (xiii) acquisition and divestiture costs.

Adjusted EBITDA is used as a quantitative standard by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts, our lenders and others to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis; (ii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs and support our indebtedness; and (iii) our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in our industry, without regard to financing or capital structure.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss). Our non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some but not all items that affect net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.

Subsequent Events

On October 28, 2022, the Partnership received written notice of Stonepeak’s election to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 in common units. The aggregate distribution of 27,442,638 common units (the “Q322 Stonepeak Units”) is payable to Stonepeak Catarina following satisfaction of certain issuance conditions, including, among other things, the compliance by the Partnership and Stonepeak with any applicable federal securities laws applicable to the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units.

Following the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units, Stonepeak will own (i) 200,107,218 common units, representing approximately 80.3% of the issued and outstanding common units, (ii) all of the issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, (iii) the Warrant, (iv) the non-economic general partner interest in us, and (v) all of our incentive distribution rights. As previously disclosed, if at any time Stonepeak holds more than 80% of our outstanding common units and completes the Stonepeak LCR Transfer (as defined below), Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner to exercise its right to acquire all, but not less than all, of our common units held by persons other than our general partner and its controlled affiliates (“limited call right”). As Stonepeak will hold more than 80% of our outstanding common units following the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units, Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner to exercise its limited call right at any time after Stonepeak transfers all of the common units held by it to our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner (the “Stonepeak LCR Transfer”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stonepeak has informed us that they have no current intention to cause our general partner to exercise its limited call right or take any other actions in furtherance thereof, such as completion of the Stonepeak LCR Transfer. For

28

additional information regarding risks associated with the limited call right please see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Certain events may result in our general partner exercising its limited call right, which may require common unitholders to sell their common units at an undesirable time or price.”

Gathering and transportation lease revenues. Gathering and transportation lease revenues decreased approximately $0.4 million or 5%, to approximately $7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in throughput.

Transportation operating expenses. Our transportation operating expenses generally consist of equipment rentals, chemicals, treating, metering fees, permit and regulatory fees, labor, minor maintenance, tools, supplies and pipeline integrity management expenses and ad valorem taxes. Our transportation operating expenses decreased by approximately $0.2 million, or 9%, to approximately $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was due to a decrease in non-recurring maintenance as well as a decrease in throughput.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses include indirect costs billed by SP Holdings in connection with the Shared Services Agreement, field office expenses, professional fees and other costs not directly associated with field operations. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.3 million, or 14%, to approximately $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to approximately $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily the result of the mark-to-market impact on

29

indirect costs billed in connection with the Shared Services Agreement of approximately $0.2 million due to volatility in the market price of our common units during the period.

Loss on sale of assets. The loss on sale of assets decreased by approximately $2.2 million, or (100)%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to approximately $2.2 million the three months ended June 30, 2022. The loss was the result of the sale of certain gathering and transportation equipment during the second quarter of 2022 which was replaced with leased equipment.

Depreciation and amortization expense. Gathering and transportation assets are stated at historical acquisition cost, net of any impairments, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, which range from five to 15 years for equipment and up to 36 years for gathering facilities. Our depreciation and amortization expense was consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense consists of distributions on the Class C Preferred Units, non-cash accretion of the discount on the Class C Preferred Units, the non-cash change in fair value of the Stonepeak Warrant and cash interest expense from borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Interest expense decreased approximately $0.1 million, or 1%, to approximately $14.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to approximately $14.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Earnings from equity investment. Earnings from equity investments decreased approximately $1.5 million, or 80%, to earnings of approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to earnings of approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in income was primarily the result of a decrease in throughput.

Other (income) expense. Other (income) expense includes the mark-to-market impact of the Nuvve Holding Warrants as well as other expenses and income not associated with our operations. Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $45.0 thousand compared to other expense of approximately $85.0 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in income was primarily the result of the reduction in deficiency fees between the periods.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was approximately $24.1 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to an expense of approximately $6.2 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in income tax expense resulted from an increase in taxable margin over the comparable periods.

(a)Variances deemed to be Not Meaningful “NM.”

Gathering and transportation lease revenues. Gathering and transportation lease revenues decreased approximately $5.9 million, or 17%, to approximately $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately $35.3 million for the same period in 2021. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in the tariff charged for hydrocarbons transported on Eastern Catarina under the A&R Gathering Agreement, effective as of April 1, 2022, as well as a decrease in throughput.

Transportation operating expenses. Our transportation operating expenses generally consist of equipment rentals, chemicals, treating, metering fees, permit and regulatory fees, labor, minor maintenance, tools, supplies and pipeline integrity management expenses and ad valorem taxes. Our transportation operating expenses increased by approximately $0.5 million, or 8%, to approximately $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to approximately $6.4 million for the same period in 2021. This increase was primarily due to non-recurring maintenance as well as replacing previously owned equipment with leased equipment and rising costs for chemicals, labor, maintenance, tools and supplies as a result of recent inflation and ongoing supply chain constraints. This increase was slightly offset by a decrease in throughput.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses include indirect costs billed by SP Holdings in connection with the Shared Services Agreement, field office expenses, professional fees and other costs not directly associated with field operations. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $7.7 million, or

31

55%, to approximately $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately $14.0 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of the mark-to-market impact on indirect costs billed in connection with the Shared Services Agreement of approximately $7.3 million due to the volatility in the market price of our common units during the period. Additionally, we recorded approximately $1.9 million of bad debt expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. These decreases were partially offset by additional professional fees surrounding the disputed rate charged on Western Catarina Midstream and the A&R Gathering Agreement.

Unit-based compensation expense. Unit-based compensation expense decreased approximately $0.7 million, or 93%, to approximately $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately $0.7 million for the same period in 2021.

Loss on sale of assets. The loss on sale of assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $4.4 million. The loss was the result of the sale of certain gathering and transportation equipment which was replaced with leased equipment.

Depreciation and amortization expense. Gathering and transportation assets are stated at historical acquisition cost, net of any impairments, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, which range from five to 15 years for equipment and up to 36 years for gathering facilities. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by approximately $1.4 million, or 9% to approximately $14.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately $15.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This decrease was the result of the Kodiak Sale. Additionally, the A&R Gathering Agreement extended the expected life of the customer contract intangible asset which reduced the amortization amount recognized by period.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense consists of distributions on the Class C Preferred Units, non-cash accretion of the discount on the Class C Preferred Units, the non-cash change in fair value of the Stonepeak Warrant and cash interest expense from borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Interest expense decreased approximately $45.0 million, or 50%, to approximately $44.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to approximately $89.5 million for the same period in 2021. This decrease was the result of the Class C Preferred Units discount becoming fully accreted at December 31, 2021. Cash interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $1.1 million compared to approximately $2.2 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in cash interest expense was primarily the result of the decrease in the outstanding Credit Agreement debt balance between the periods.

Loss (earnings) from equity investment. Earnings from equity investments increased approximately $7.1 million to earnings of approximately $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to losses of approximately $1.4 million for the same period in 2021. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in throughput between the comparative periods.

Other (income) expense. Other (income) expense includes the mark-to-market impact of the Nuvve Holding Warrants as well as other expenses and income not associated with our operations. Other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $0.7 million compared to other income of approximately $0.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The primary reason for the change relates to the mark-to-market impact of the Nuvve Holding Warrants from a decrease in the Nuvve Holding stock price compared to an increase in the Nuvve Holding stock price during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Income tax (benefit) expense. Income tax expense was approximately $96.2 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a benefit of approximately $16.6 thousand for the same period in 2021. The increase in income tax expense resulted from an increase in taxable margin over the comparable periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $2.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.0 million available for borrowing under the Credit Agreement, as discussed further below. Adjusted Available Cash (as defined in our partnership agreement) will be distributed to holders of the Class C Preferred Units to redeem a number of Class C Preferred Units to be determined based on the amount of Adjusted Available Cash.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we paid approximately $0.3 million and approximately $1.1 million, respectively, in cash for interest on borrowings under our Credit Agreement. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded interest expense related to the Class C Preferred Units of approximately

32

$14.4 million and $43.2 million, respectively, which are recorded in interest expense on the income statement. These are non-cash interest expense items.

Our capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were funded with cash on hand. In the future, capital and liquidity are anticipated to be provided by operating cash flows, borrowings under our Credit Agreement, sale of certain non-commercial assets and proceeds from the issuance of additional debt, additional common units or other limited partner interests. We expect that the combination of these capital resources will be adequate to meet our short-term working capital requirements and long-term capital expenditures program. However, there can be no assurance that operations and other capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to maintain our current debt level, planned levels of capital expenditures, operating expenses or any cash distributions that we may make to unitholders.

While we cannot predict the duration or complete financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and volatile market conditions, we believe that our balances of cash, cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, borrowings under the Credit Agreement and potential issuances of securities will be sufficient to satisfy cash requirements over the next twelve months, including relating to working capital, amortizing debt payments on the Term Loan, and maintenance and expansion capital expenditures. However, there can be no assurance that operations and other capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to maintain our current debt level, planned levels of capital expenditures, or operating expenses.

Credit Agreement

The Credit Agreement provides a quarterly amortizing term loan of $65.0 million (the “Term Loan”) and a maximum revolving credit amount of $5.0 million (the “Revolving Loan”). The Term Loan and Revolving Loan both have a maturity date of September 30, 2023. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by various mortgages of midstream properties that we own as well as various security and pledge agreements among us, certain of our subsidiaries and the administrative agent.

The Partnership’s inability to generate sufficient liquidity to meet future debt obligations raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The Credit Agreement matures September 30, 2023 and our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon our ability to either (i) refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) obtain adequate new debt or equity financing to repay the Credit Agreement in full at maturity.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for limited direct investment in midstream properties, acquisitions, and working capital and general business purposes. The Credit Agreement has a sub-limit of up to $2.5 million which may be used for the issuance of letters of credit. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $22.2 million of debt outstanding, comprised solely of the term loan. We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan of (i) $3.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2021, and (ii) $2.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2022, we have met our mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan through December 31, 2022. The maximum revolving credit amount is $5.0 million leaving us with approximately $5.0 million in unused borrowing capacity. There were no letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2022.

At our election, interest for borrowings under the Credit Agreement are determined by reference to (i) the LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 2.75% and 3.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA or (ii) a domestic bank rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin between 1.75% and 2.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA plus (iii) a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum based on the unutilized portion of the Revolving Loan. Interest on the borrowings for ABR loans and the commitment fee are generally payable quarterly. Interest on the borrowings for LIBOR loans are generally payable at the applicable maturity date.

The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that limit, among other things, our ability to incur certain indebtedness, grant certain liens, merge or consolidate, sell all or substantially all of our assets, make certain loans, acquisitions, capital expenditures and investments, and pay distributions to unitholders.

33

In addition, we are required to maintain the following financial covenants:

•current assets to current liabilities, excluding any current maturities of debt, of at least 1.0 to 1.0 at all times; and

•senior secured net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, of not greater than 3.25 to 1.00.

The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties when made or when deemed made, violation of covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency events, certain unsatisfied judgments, loan documents not being valid and a change in control. A change in control is generally defined as the occurrence of one of the following events: (i) our existing general partner ceases to be our sole general partner or (ii) certain specified persons shall cease to own more than 50% of the equity interests of our general partner or shall cease to control our general partner. If an event of default occurs, the lenders will be able to accelerate the maturity of the Credit Agreement and exercise other rights and remedies.

Our partnership agreement prohibits us from paying any distributions on our common units until we have redeemed all of the Class C Preferred Units. Following such redemption, the Credit Agreement further limits our ability to pay distributions to unitholders.

At September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. We monitor compliance on an ongoing basis. If we are unable to remain in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our Credit Agreement or maintain the required ratios discussed above, the lenders could call an event of default and accelerate the outstanding debt under the terms of the Credit Agreement, such that our outstanding debt could become then due and payable. We may request waivers of compliance from the violated financial covenants from the lenders, but there is no assurance that such waivers would be granted.

Sources of Debt and Equity Financing

As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $22.2 million of debt outstanding under the Term Loan and no debt outstanding under the Revolving Loan, leaving us with approximately $5.0 million in unused borrowing capacity. There were no letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2022. Our Credit Agreement matures on September 30, 2023.

Operating Cash Flows

We had net cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of approximately $29.5 million, compared to net cash flows provided by operating activities of approximately $24.8 million for the same period in 2021.

Our operating cash flows are subject to many variables, the most significant of which is the volume of oil and natural gas transported through our midstream assets. Our future operating cash flows will depend on oil and natural gas transported through our midstream assets.

Investing Activities

We had net cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, of approximately $1.3 million, which related to indirect costs of right of use assets offset by the proceeds from the Kodiak Sale.

We also had net cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of approximately $15.4 million, substantially all of which were proceeds from the sale of oil and natural gas properties.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows used in financing activities was approximately $27.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repaid borrowings of $27.0 million under our Credit Agreement.

34

Net cash flows used in financing activities was approximately $40.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repaid borrowings of $56.3 million under our Credit Agreement.

Credit Markets and Counterparty Risk

We actively monitor the credit exposure and risks associated with our counterparties. Additionally, we continue to monitor global credit markets to limit our potential exposure to credit risk where possible. Our primary credit exposures result from the generation of substantially all of our midstream revenues from a single customer, Mesquite.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

As of September 30, 2022, there were no changes with regard to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The policies disclosed included the accounting for oil and natural gas properties, oil and natural gas reserve quantities, revenue recognition and hedging activities. Please read Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of additional accounting policies and estimates made by management.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for information on new accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of the general partner of SNMP have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2022 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II—Other Information

35

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time we may be the subject of lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Management cannot predict the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits or claims. Management does not currently expect the outcome of any of the known claims or proceedings to individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Carefully consider the risk factors under “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no significant changes except as follows:

The impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on the global economy, energy supplies and raw materials is uncertain, but may prove to negatively impact our business and operations.

The short and long-term implications of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine are difficult to predict at this time. We continue to monitor any adverse impact that the outbreak of war in Ukraine and the subsequent institution of sanctions against Russia by the United States and several European and Asian countries may have on the global economy in general, on our business and operations and on the businesses and operations of our suppliers and customers. For example, a prolonged conflict may result in increased inflation, escalating energy prices and constrained availability, and thus increasing costs, of raw materials. To the extent the war in Ukraine may adversely affect our business, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in our risk factors, such as those relating to data security, supply chain, volatility in prices of inputs, and market conditions, any of which could negatively affect our business and financial condition.

Inflation could result in higher costs and decreased profitability.

Recent inflation, including increases in energy rates, prices for chemicals, additives and fuel and other costs, has adversely impacted us. Sustained inflation could result in higher costs for transportation, energy, materials, supplies and labor. Our efforts to recover inflation-based cost increases from our customers may be delayed or capped as a result of our contracts as well as the competitive industry and economic conditions in which we operate. Accordingly, substantial inflation may have a material adverse impact on our costs, profitability and financial results.

Certain events may result in our general partner exercising its limited call right, which may require common unitholders to sell their common units at an undesirable time or price.

As of November 10, 2022, Stonepeak owned (i) 169,615,398 common units, representing approximately 77.6% of our outstanding common units, (ii) all of our issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, (iii) the Warrant that entitled Stonepeak Catarina to receive junior securities of the Partnership (including common units) representing 10% of all junior securities deemed outstanding when exercised, (iv) the non-economic general partner interest in the Partnership and (v) all of our incentive distribution rights. Stonepeak also owns 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in SP Holdings, which is the sole member of our general partner.

Pursuant to Section 15.1 of our partnership agreement, if at any time Stonepeak holds more than 80% of our outstanding common units and completes the Stonepeak LCR Transfer (as defined below), Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner to exercise its right to acquire all, but not less than all, of our common units held by persons other than our general partner and its controlled affiliates (the “limited call right”). Following the distribution of common units to Stonepeak on November 21, 2022, Stonepeak will hold more than 80% of our outstanding common units and, as a result, the limited call right could be exercised at any time following the completion of the Stonepeak LCR Transfer. Stonepeak would effect any such exercise by first transferring all of the common units held by it to our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner (the “Stonepeak LCR Transfer”) and then causing our general partner to exercise its limited call right at a price equal to the greater of (1) the average of the daily closing price of our common units over the 20 trading days preceding the date three days before notice of exercise of the limited call right is first mailed and (2) the highest per-unit price paid by our general partner or any of its controlled affiliates for common units during the 90-day period preceding the date such notice is first mailed. As a result, common unitholders may be required to sell their common units at an undesirable time or price and may not receive any return or a negative return on their investment. Common unitholders may also incur tax liability upon a sale of their units. Our general partner is not obligated to obtain a fairness opinion regarding the value of common units to be repurchased

36

upon exercise of the limited call right. Furthermore, there is no restriction in our partnership agreement that prevents our general partner from causing us to issue additional common units, including common units issued pursuant to the Stonepeak Letter Agreement or as a result of the termination or renegotiation of the Shared Services Agreement, and then exercising its limited call right. If our general partner exercises its limited call right, the effect would be to take the Partnership private and, if the common units are subsequently deregistered, the Partnership will no longer be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

In a liquidation, the preferential rights of the holder of our Class C Preferred Units could result in common unitholders losing their entire investment.

Pursuant to our partnership agreement, if an event giving rise to the liquidation of the Partnership occurs prior to all of the Class C Preferred Units being redeemed, then the Class C Preferred Units preferential rights require that the capital account for any holder of any Class C Preferred Units is first allocated items of income, gain, loss and deduction until each such holder’s capital account in respect of each Class C Preferred Unit is equal to 100% of the liquidation preference with respect to such Class C Preferred Unit. Such liquidation preference is equal to $11.29 plus all accrued and unpaid distributions. As of June 30, 2022, as disclosed in the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2022 (the “Q2 10-Q”), the current liability associated with the Class C Preferred Units was approximately $397.4 million. As a result, if a liquidation of the Partnership were to occur, the holders of Class C Preferred Units would have to receive approximately $397.4 million prior to common unitholders receiving anything. The condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Partnership included in the Q2 10-Q disclose total assets of approximately $241.5 million, approximately $155.9 million less than the current liability associated with the Class C Preferred Units. As a result, based upon the financial information included in the Q2 10-Q, if a liquidation of the Partnership were to occur, the common units would have zero equity value and common unitholders would lose their entire investment.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

As previously discussed, on August 22, 2022, pursuant to the terms of the Stonepeak Letter Agreement, we issued 27,442,638 common units to Stonepeak Catarina in response to Stonepeak Catarina’s election to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The issuance of these common units was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Accounting policies used by us conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of us and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of losses. Additionally, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which changed the effective date for certain issuers to annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Partnership’s inability to generate sufficient liquidity to meet future debt obligations raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The Credit Agreement matures September 30, 2023 and our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon our ability to either (i) refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) obtain adequate new debt or equity financing to repay the Credit Agreement in full at maturity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of substantial doubt as to the Partnership’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Partnership cannot continue as a going concern, adjustments to the carrying values and classification of its assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses could be required and could be material.

Use of Estimates

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The estimates that are particularly significant to our financial statements include estimates of our depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset retirement obligations; certain revenues and operating expenses; and fair values of assets and liabilities. As fair value is a market-based measurement, it is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment using the data available. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Such estimates and assumptions are adjusted when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from the estimates. Any changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Kodiak Sale

On March 11, 2022, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Kodiak Gas Services, LLC (“Kodiak”), pursuant to which we sold to Kodiak natural gas compression equipment for a purchase price of $250 thousand. We recorded a loss of approximately $2.2 million on the sale.

On May 9, 2022, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Kodiak, pursuant to which we sold to Kodiak natural gas compression equipment for a purchase price of $250 thousand. We recorded a loss of approximately $2.2 million on the sale.

Palmetto Divestiture

On April 30, 2021, but effective March 1, 2021 (the “Palmetto Effective Time”), SEP Holdings IV, LLC (“SEP IV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership entered into a purchase agreement (the “Palmetto PSA”) with Westhoff Palmetto LP (“Palmetto Buyer”), pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Palmetto Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Gonzales and Dewitt Counties, Texas (the “Palmetto Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $11.5 million, including the impact of final post-closing adjustments (the “Palmetto Divestiture”). Pursuant to the Palmetto PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Palmetto Buyer agreed to assume all obligations relating to the Palmetto Assets that arose on or after the Palmetto Effective Time. The Palmetto PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Palmetto Buyer, and SEP IV and Palmetto Buyer have agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Palmetto Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Palmetto PSA and we recorded a gain of approximately $0.3 million on the sale.

Maverick Divestitures

On April 30, 2021, but effective March 1, 2021 (the “Maverick Effective Time”), SEP IV entered into a purchase agreement (the “Maverick PSA”) with Bayshore Energy TX LLC (“Maverick Buyer”), pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala County, Texas (the “Maverick 1 Assets”)

for a base purchase price of approximately $2.8 million, prior to post-closing adjustments (the “Maverick 1 Divestiture”). Pursuant to the Maverick PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations relating to the Maverick 1 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 1 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick PSA.

Also on April 30, 2021, SEP IV entered into a letter agreement with Maverick Buyer (the “Maverick Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which SEP IV agreed to sell additional other specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala and Dimmit Counties, Texas (the “Maverick 2 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $1.4 million, prior to final post-closing adjustments (the “Maverick 2 Divestiture”). The closing of the Maverick 2 Divestiture was conditioned upon SEP IV obtaining certain consents and complying with other preferential rights related to the Maverick 2 Assets. Following the entrance into the Maverick Letter Agreement, SEP IV complied with the preferential rights and obtained multiple consents related to the Maverick 2 Assets. SEP IV did not obtain one of the required consents and, as a result, the Maverick 2 Assets subject to such consent were removed from the Maverick 2 Assets included in the Maverick 2 Divestiture (the “Updated Maverick 2 Assets”) and the base purchase price was adjusted downward by approximately $31,000.

On May 14, 2021, but effective as of the Maverick Effective Time, SEP IV and Maverick Buyer entered into a purchase agreement (the “Maverick 2 PSA”) pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer the Updated Maverick 2 Assets. Pursuant to the Maverick 2 PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations and liabilities related to the Updated Maverick 2 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick 2 PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 2 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick 2 PSA.

On August 13, 2021, but effective as of the Maverick Effective Time, SEP IV and Maverick Buyer entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Maverick 3 PSA”) pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala County, Texas, including the remaining Maverick 2 Assets excluded from the original closing of the Maverick 2 Divestiture (the “Maverick 3 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $31,000, prior to final post-closing adjustments (the “Maverick 3 Divestiture,” and together with the Maverick 1 Divestiture and the Maverick 2 Divestiture, the “Maverick Divestitures”). Pursuant to the Maverick 3 PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations and liabilities related to the Maverick 3 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick 3 PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 3 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick 3 PSA. We recorded a net loss of approximately $0.3 million related to the Maverick Divestitures.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The unit of account in ASC 606 is a performance obligation, which is a promise in a contract to transfer to a customer either a distinct good or service (or bundle of goods or services) or a series of distinct goods or services provided over a period of time. ASC 606 requires that a contract’s transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, is to be allocated to each performance obligation in the contract based on relative standalone selling prices and recognized as revenue when (point in time) or as (over time) the performance obligation is satisfied.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Gathering Agreement is classified as an operating lease and is accounted for under ASC 842, “Leases” and is reported as gathering and transportation lease revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized revenue of approximately $7.0 million and $29.4 million, respectively, under ASC 842. Mesquite accounted for 100% of total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. We are highly dependent upon Mesquite as our only customer.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we did not record any revenue under ASC 606. We disaggregate revenue based on revenue and product type. In selecting the disaggregation categories, we considered a number of factors, including disclosures presented outside the financial statements, such as in our earnings release and investor presentations, information reviewed internally for evaluating performance, and other factors used by the Partnership or the users of its financial statements to evaluate performance or allocate resources. We have concluded that disaggregating revenue by revenue and product type appropriately depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

We account for income from our unconsolidated equity method investments as earnings from equity investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Earnings from these equity method investments are further discussed in Note 11 “Investments.”

Contract Balances

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our accounts receivable were approximately $2.3 million and $19.1 million, respectively, under ASC 842.

On May 27, 2022, but effective as of April 1, 2022, we entered into the A&R Gathering Agreement, a related side letter agreement and the Settlement Agreement (collectively the “Settlement Documents”). We accounted for the Settlement Documents as a single contract modification of the Original Gathering Agreement under the contract combination guidance in ASC 842.

Prior to the execution of the A&R Gathering Agreement, Mesquite disputed the tariff rate for interruptible throughput volumes from Eastern Catarina (as defined below) billed from July 1, 2021 forward, which resulted in a disputed receivable balance of approximately $26.7 million. Under the terms of the A&R Gathering Agreement and other agreements concurrently entered into, approximately $15.1 million of the disputed receivable balance was paid in cash. In addition, the A&R Gathering Agreement amended key provisions of the Original Gathering Agreement in a manner favorable to us. Principally, it provides for, among other things, a new dedication of the eastern portion of Mesquite’s acreage position in Dimmit, La Salle and Webb counties, Texas (“Eastern Catarina”), whereas only Western Catarina (as defined in Note 10 “Intangible Assets”) was dedicated under the Original Gathering Agreement. The A&R Gathering Agreement also established gathering and processing fee rates for both Western Catarina and Eastern Catarina as well as rates for new production from the Dedicated Acreage (as defined in the A&R Gathering Agreement) and from the Subject Wells (as defined in the A&R Gathering Agreement).

In accordance with ASC 842, the portion of the disputed receivable balance of approximately $11.6 million we did not collect in cash was reclassified as a deferred lease incentive, reflective of the non-distinct nature of the contractual concessions received from Mesquite in the A&R Gathering Agreement. The deferred lease incentive is being amortized over the remaining term of the A&R Gathering Agreement.

Amortization of the deferred A&R Gathering Agreement lease incentive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. This amortization is recorded as a reduction to gathering and transportation lease revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Under our sales contracts, we invoice customers after our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our accounts receivables from contracts with customers was zero.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Measurements of fair value of derivative instruments are classified according to the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1: Measured based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Active markets are considered those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Measured based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management’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 levels.

The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2022
	Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Fair Value
Fair value of warrants
Nuvve Holding Warrants	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—
Other liabilities
Stonepeak Warrant	—		(7,045)		—		(7,045)
Total	$	—	$	(7,045)	$	—	$	(7,045)

The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2021
	Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Fair Value
Fair value of warrants
Nuvve Holding Warrants	$	—	$	664	$	—	$	664
Other liabilities
Stonepeak Warrant	—		(7,197)		—		(7,197)
Total	$	—	$	(6,533)	$	—	$	(6,533)

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets and current liabilities approximated their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Partnership follows the provisions of Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurement,” for non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. 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 under the fair value hierarchy. We periodically review oil and natural gas properties and related equipment for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Partnership’s asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 9 “Asset Retirement Obligation.”

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies described below. We prioritize the use of the highest level inputs available in determining fair value such that fair value measurements are determined using the highest and best use as determined by market participants and the assumptions that they would use in determining fair value.

Credit Agreement – We believe that the carrying value of our Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 7 “Debt”) approximates its fair value because the interest rates on the debt approximate market interest rates for debt with similar terms. The debt is classified as a Level 2 input in the fair value hierarchy and represents the amount at which the instrument could be valued in an exchange during a current transaction between willing parties. The Credit Agreement is discussed further in Note 7 “Debt.”

Nuvve Holding Warrants – The Nuvve Holding Warrants (as defined in Note 6 “Derivative and Financial Instruments”) are valued using the value of Nuvve’s common stock and the Nuvve Holding Warrants exercise price. We have therefore classified the fair value measurement of the Nuvve Holding Warrants as Level 2 and is presented within fair value of warrants on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022, the Nuvve Holding Warrants fair value was determined to be zero.

Stonepeak Warrant – As part of the Exchange (as defined in Note 15 “Partners’ Deficit”), the Partnership issued to Stonepeak Catarina the Stonepeak Warrant which entitles the holder to receive junior securities of the Partnership representing ten percent of junior securities deemed outstanding when exercised. The Stonepeak Warrant is valued using ten percent of the Partnership’s junior securities deemed outstanding and the common unit price as of the balance sheet date. We have therefore classified the fair value measurement of the Stonepeak Warrant as Level 2 and is presented within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Earnout Derivative – As part of the Carnero Gathering Transaction (as defined in Note 11 “Investments”), we are required to pay Mesquite an earnout based on natural gas received above a threshold volume and tariff at designated delivery points from Mesquite and other producers. The earnout derivative was valued through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation model which utilized observable inputs such as the earnout price and volume commitment, as well as unobservable inputs related to the weighted probabilities of various throughput scenarios. We have therefore classified the fair value measurements of the earnout derivative as Level 3 inputs. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the earnout was determined to be zero.

Credit Agreement

We have entered into a credit facility with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto, as amended through the date of the Twelfth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 20, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides a quarterly amortizing term loan of $65.0 million (the “Term Loan”) and a maximum revolving credit amount of $5.0 million (the “Revolving Loan”). The Credit Agreement matures on September 30, 2023. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by various mortgages of midstream properties that we own as well as various security and pledge agreements among us, certain of our subsidiaries and the administrative agent.

The Credit Agreement is a current liability that matures on September 30, 2023. We expect to refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement prior to its maturity date. However, we may not be able to refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement or, if we are able to refinance or extend the maturity, we may not be able to do so with borrowing and debt issue costs, terms, covenants, restrictions, commitment amount or a borrowing base favorable to us.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for limited direct investment in midstream properties, acquisitions, and working capital and general business purposes. The Credit Agreement has a sub-limit of up to $2.5 million which may be used for the issuance of letters of credit. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $22.2 million of debt outstanding, comprised solely of the Term Loan. We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan of (i) $3.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2021, and (ii) $2.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2022, we have met our mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan through December 31, 2022. The maximum revolving credit amount is $5.0 million leaving us with approximately $5.0 million in unused borrowing capacity. There were no letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2022.

At our election, interest for borrowings under the Credit Agreement are determined by reference to (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin between 2.75% and 3.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA or (ii) a domestic bank rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin between 1.75% and 2.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA plus (iii) a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum based on the unutilized portion of the Revolving Loan. Interest on the borrowings for ABR loans and the commitment fee are generally payable quarterly. Interest on the borrowings for LIBOR loans are generally payable at the applicable maturity date.

The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that limit, among other things, our ability to incur certain indebtedness, grant certain liens, merge or consolidate, sell all or substantially all of our assets, make certain loans, acquisitions, capital expenditures and investments, and pay distributions to unitholders.

In addition, we are required to maintain the following financial covenants:

•current assets to current liabilities, excluding any current maturities of debt, of at least 1.0 to 1.0 at all times; and

•senior secured net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, of not greater than 3.25 to 1.00.

The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties when made or when deemed made, violation of covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency events, certain unsatisfied judgments, loan documents not being valid and a change in control. A change in control is generally defined as the occurrence of one of the following events: (i) our existing general partner ceases to be our sole general partner or (ii) certain specified persons shall cease to own more than 50% of the equity interests of our general partner or shall cease to control our general partner. If an event of default occurs, the lenders will be able to accelerate the maturity of the Credit Agreement and exercise other rights and remedies.

At September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. We monitor compliance on an ongoing basis. If we are unable to remain in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our Credit Agreement or maintain the required ratios discussed above, the lenders could call an event of default and accelerate the outstanding debt under the terms of the Credit Agreement, such that our outstanding debt could become then due and payable. We may request waivers of compliance from the violated financial covenants from the lenders, but there is no assurance that such waivers would be granted.

We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of the outstanding principal on the Term Loan and we expect these quarterly amortizing payments will be made from our operating cash flows and other capital resources. However, there can be no assurance that operations and other capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to make these mandatory amortizing payments.

Debt Issuance Costs

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our unamortized debt issuance costs were approximately $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. These costs are amortized to interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations over the life of our Credit Agreement. Amortization of debt issuance costs recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization. Gathering and transportation assets, are stated at historical acquisition cost, net of any impairments, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, which range from three to 15 years for furniture and equipment, up to 36 years for gathering facilities, and up to 40 years for transportation assets.

Depreciation and amortization consisted of the following (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

Total depreciation and amortization	$	4,425	$	5,143	$	14,059	$	15,430

Impairment of Gathering and Transportation Assets. We perform a periodic review of gathering and transportation assets to identify facts and circumstances, or triggering events, that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Asset recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset or asset group with its expected future pre-tax undiscounted cash flows. These cash flow estimates require us to make projections and assumptions for many years into the future for pricing, demand, competition, operating cost and other factors. If the carrying amount exceeds the expected future undiscounted cash flows, we recognize an impairment equal to the excess of net book value over fair value. The determination of the fair value using present value techniques requires us to make projections and assumptions regarding the probability of a range of outcomes and the rates of interest used in the present value calculations. Any changes we make to these projections and assumptions could result in significant revisions to our evaluation of

recoverability of our gathering and transportation assets and the recognition of additional impairments. Upon disposition or retirement of gathering and transportation assets, any gain or loss is recorded to operations.

Asset Retirement Obligation

Asset Retirement Obligation Disclosure [Abstract]

Asset Retirement Obligation

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

We recognize the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Each period, we accrete the ARO to its then present value. The associated asset retirement cost (“ARC”) is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of our oil and natural gas properties, equipment and facilities or gathering and transportation assets. Subsequently, the ARC is depreciated using the units-of-production method for production assets and the straight-line method for midstream assets. The AROs recorded by us relate to the plugging and abandonment of oil and natural gas wells and decommissioning of oil and natural gas gathering and other facilities.

Inherent in the fair value calculation of AROs are numerous assumptions and judgments including the ultimate settlement amounts, inflation factors, credit adjusted discount rates, timing of settlement and changes in the legal, regulatory, environmental and political environments. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions result in adjustments to the recorded fair value of the existing ARO, a corresponding adjustment is made to the ARC capitalized as part of gathering and transportation assets.

The following table is a reconciliation of changes in ARO for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022		Year Ended December 31, 2021
Asset retirement obligation, beginning balance	$	4,700	$	4,313
Accretion expense	312		387
Asset retirement obligation, ending balance	$	5,012	$	4,700

Additional AROs increase the liability associated with new oil and natural gas wells and other facilities as these obligations are incurred. Abandonments of oil and natural gas wells and other facilities reduce the liability for AROs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, there were no significant expenditures for abandonments and there were no assets legally restricted for purposes of settling existing AROs. During the year ended December 31, 2021, obligations were relieved as part of the Palmetto Divestiture and the Maverick Divestitures.

Intangible Assets

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are comprised of customer and marketing contracts. The intangible assets balance as of September 30, 2022 is related to the Gathering Agreement with Mesquite that was entered into as part of the acquisition of the Western Catarina gathering system. The Western Catarina gathering system (“Western Catarina Midstream”) is located on the western portion of Mesquite’s acreage position in Dimmit, La Salle and Webb counties, Texas (the western portion of such acreage, “Western Catarina”). Pursuant to the 15-year agreement, Mesquite tenders all of its crude oil, natural gas and other hydrocarbon-based product volumes produced in the Western Catarina of the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas for processing and transportation through Western Catarina Midstream, with a right to tender additional volumes outside of the dedicated acreage. These intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over the 15-year life of the agreement.

Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $8.8 million and $10.1 million, respectively. These costs are amortized to depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense in our

condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table is a reconciliation of changes in intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]

Investments

INVESTMENTS

In July 2016, we completed a transaction pursuant to which we acquired from Mesquite a 50% interest in Carnero Gathering, LLC (“Carnero Gathering”), a joint venture that was 50% owned and operated by Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) (“Targa”), for an initial payment of approximately $37.0 million and the assumption of remaining capital commitments to Carnero Gathering, estimated at approximately $7.4 million as of the acquisition date (the “Carnero Gathering Transaction”). The fair value of the intangible asset for the contractual customer relationship related to Carnero Gathering was valued at approximately $13.0 million. This amount is being amortized over a contract term of 15 years and decreases earnings from equity investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As part of the Carnero Gathering Transaction, we are required to pay Mesquite an earnout based on natural gas received above a threshold volume and tariff at designated delivery points from Mesquite and other producers. See Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion of the earnout derivative.

In November 2016, we completed a transaction pursuant to which we acquired from Mesquite a 50% interest in Carnero Processing, LLC (“Carnero Processing”), a joint venture that was 50% owned and operated by Targa, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $55.5 million and the assumption of remaining capital contribution commitments to Carnero Processing, estimated at approximately $24.5 million as of the date of acquisition.

In May 2018, we executed a series of agreements with Targa and other parties pursuant to which, among other things: (1) the parties merged their respective 50% interests in Carnero Gathering and Carnero Processing (the “Carnero JV Transaction”) to form an expanded 50 / 50 joint venture in South Texas, within Carnero G&P, LLC (the “Carnero JV”), (2) Targa contributed 100% of the equity interest in the Silver Oak II Gas Processing Plant (“Silver Oak II”), located in Bee County, Texas, to the Carnero JV, which expands the processing capacity of the Carnero JV from 260 MMcf/d to 460 MMcf/d, (3) Targa contributed certain capacity in the 45 miles of high pressure natural gas gathering pipelines owned by Carnero Gathering that connect Western Catarina Midstream to nearby pipelines and the Raptor Gas Processing Facility (the “Carnero Gathering Line”) to the Carnero JV resulting in the Carnero JV owning all of the capacity in the Carnero Gathering Line, which has a design limit (without compression) of 400 MMcf/d, (4) the Carnero JV received a new dedication from Mesquite and its working interest partners of over 315,000 acres located in the Western Eagle Ford on Mesquite’s acreage in Dimmit, Webb, La Salle, Zavala and Maverick counties, Texas (such acreage is collectively referred to as Mesquite’s “Comanche Asset”) pursuant to a new long-term firm gas gathering and processing agreement. The agreement with Mesquite, which was approved by all of the unaffiliated Comanche Asset working interest partners, establishes commercial terms for the gathering of gas on the Carnero Gathering Line and processing at the Raptor Gas Processing Facility and Silver Oak II. Prior to execution of the agreement, volumes from the Comanche Asset were gathered and processed on an interruptible basis, with the processing capabilities of the Carnero JV limited by the capacity of the Raptor Gas Processing Facility. As a result of the Carnero JV Transaction, we now record our share of earnings and losses from the Carnero JV using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (“HLBV”) method of accounting. HLBV is a balance-sheet approach that calculates the amount we would have received if the Carnero JV were liquidated at book value at the end of each measurement period. The change in our allocated amount during the period is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the event of liquidation of the Carnero JV, available proceeds are first distributed to any priority return and unpaid capital associated with Silver Oak II, and then to members in accordance with their capital accounts.

As of September 30, 2022, the Partnership had paid approximately $124.7 million for its investment in the Carnero JV related to the initial payments and contributed capital. The Partnership has accounted for this investment using the equity method. Targa is the operator of the Carnero JV and has significant influence with respect to the normal day-to-day capital and operating decisions. We have included the investment balance in the equity investments caption on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Partnership recorded earnings

of approximately $0.7 million in equity investments from the Carnero JV, which was offset by approximately $0.3 million related to the amortization of the contractual customer intangible asset. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Partnership recorded earnings of approximately $6.6 million in equity investments from the Carnero JV, which was partially offset by approximately $0.9 million related to the amortization of the contractual customer intangible asset. We have included these equity method earnings in the earnings from equity investments line within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Cash distributions of approximately $11.7 million were received during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

PARTNERS’ DEFICIT

Outstanding Units

As of September 30, 2022, we had 36,474,436 Class C Preferred Units outstanding and 197,864,414 common units outstanding which included 3,592,834 unvested restricted common units issued under the LTIP.

Common Unit Issuances

We entered into a letter agreement with SP Holdings providing that during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019 and continuing until the end of the fiscal quarter after the fiscal quarter in which we redeem all of our issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, SP Holdings agrees to delay receipt of its fees, not including reimbursement of costs. As of September 30, 2022, we have not redeemed any Class C Preferred Units and, as a result, we have not issued any common units to SP Holdings in connection with providing services under the Shared Services Agreement for any quarter following the quarter ended June 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2022, the number of units to be issued under the Shared Services Agreement is 18,479,407. At September 30, 2022, the value of these units was approximately $7.7 million and is recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in long term accrued liabilities - related entities.

Class C Preferred Units

On August 2, 2019, Stonepeak exchanged all of their current equity ownership for newly issued Class C Preferred Units and the Original Warrant in a private placement transaction (the “Exchange”).

The holders of the Class C Preferred Units receive a quarterly distribution of 14.0% per annum payable in cash. To the extent that Available Cash (as defined in our partnership agreement) is insufficient to pay the distribution in cash, all or a portion of the distribution may be paid in Class C Preferred PIK Units (as defined in our partnership agreement). Distributions are to be paid on or about the last day of each of February, May, August and November following the end of each quarter and are charged to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of January 1, 2022, Adjusted Available Cash (as defined in our partnership agreement) will be distributed to holders of the Class C Preferred Units to redeem a number of Class C Preferred Units to be determined based on the amount of Adjusted Available Cash. As of September 30, 2022, no Class C Preferred Units have been redeemed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded non-cash interest expense related to the Class C Preferred Units of approximately $43.2 million and $76.3 million, respectively, which are recorded in interest expense on the income statement.

The Class C Preferred Units are accounted for as a current liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet consisting of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Class C Preferred Units, beginning balance	$	397,387	$	345,205
Accretion of discount	—		52,182
Class C Preferred Units, ending balance	$	397,387	$	397,387

On November 16, 2020, the Partnership and Stonepeak entered into the Stonepeak Letter Agreement wherein the parties agreed that the distribution on the Class C Preferred Units for the three months ended September 30, 2020 would be

paid in common units instead of Class C Preferred PIK Units, cash or a combination thereof. The Stonepeak Letter Agreement also provides that Stonepeak will be able to elect to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units in common units for any quarter following the third quarter of 2020 by providing written notice to the Partnership no later than the last day of the calendar month following the end of such quarter.

The table below reflects distributions on Class C Preferred Units which were elected to be paid in common units related to the periods indicated.

Stonepeak Warrant

On August 2, 2019, in connection with the Exchange, the Partnership issued to Stonepeak the Original Warrant, which entitles the holder to receive junior securities of the Partnership representing ten percent of junior securities deemed outstanding when exercised. The Stonepeak Warrant expires on the later of August 2, 2026 or 30 days following the full redemption of the Class C Preferred Units. There is no strike price associated with the exercise of the Stonepeak Warrant. The Stonepeak Warrant is accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC 480 and is presented within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of the Stonepeak Warrant are charged to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded a benefit of approximately $0.2 million and an expense of approximately $10.2 million, respectively related to the Stonepeak Warrant.

Earnings per Unit

Net income (loss) per common unit for the period is based on any distributions that are made to the unitholders (common units) plus an allocation of undistributed net income (loss) based on provisions of our partnership agreement, divided by the weighted average number of common units outstanding. Unit-based awards granted but unvested are eligible to receive distributions. The underlying unvested restricted unit awards are considered participating securities for purposes of determining net income (loss) per unit. Undistributed income is allocated to participating securities based on the proportional relationship of the weighted average number of common units and unit-based awards outstanding. Undistributed losses (including those resulting from distributions in excess of net income) are allocated to common units based on provisions of our partnership agreement. Undistributed losses are not allocated to unvested restricted unit awards as they do not participate in net losses. Distributions declared and paid in the period are treated as distributed earnings in the computation of earnings per common unit even though cash distributions are not necessarily derived from current or prior period earnings.

The Partnership’s general partner does not have an economic interest in the Partnership and, therefore, does not participate in the Partnership’s net income.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 28, 2022, the Partnership received written notice of Stonepeak’s election to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 in common units. The aggregate distribution of 27,442,638 common units (the “Q322 Stonepeak Units”) is payable to Stonepeak Catarina following satisfaction of certain issuance conditions, including, among other things, the compliance by the Partnership and Stonepeak with any applicable federal securities laws applicable to the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units.

Following the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units, Stonepeak will own (i) 200,107,218 common units, representing approximately 80.3% of the issued and outstanding common units, (ii) all of the issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, (iii) the Warrant, (iv) the non-economic general partner interest in us, and (v) all of our incentive distribution rights. As previously disclosed, if at any time Stonepeak holds more than 80% of our outstanding common units and completes the Stonepeak LCR Transfer (as defined below), Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner to exercise its right to acquire all, but not less than all, of our common units held by persons other than our general partner and its controlled affiliates (“limited call right”). As Stonepeak will hold more than 80% of our outstanding common units following the issuance of the Q322 Stonepeak Units, Stonepeak will be able to cause our general partner to exercise its limited call right at any time after Stonepeak transfers all of the common units held by it to our general partner or a controlled affiliate of our general partner (the “Stonepeak LCR Transfer”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stonepeak has informed us that they have no current intention to cause our general partner to exercise its limited call right or take any other actions in furtherance thereof, such as completion of the Stonepeak LCR Transfer. For additional information regarding risks associated with the limited call right please see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Certain events may result in our general partner exercising its limited call right, which may require common unitholders to sell their common units at an undesirable time or price.”

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Accounting policies used by us conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of us and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of losses. Additionally, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which changed the effective date for certain issuers to annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Liquidity and Going Concern

Liquidity and Going ConcernThe Partnership’s inability to generate sufficient liquidity to meet future debt obligations raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The Credit Agreement matures September 30, 2023 and our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon our ability to either (i) refinance or extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) obtain adequate new debt or equity financing to repay the Credit Agreement in full at maturity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of substantial doubt as to the Partnership’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Partnership cannot continue as a going concern, adjustments to the carrying values and classification of its assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses could be required and could be material.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The estimates that are particularly significant to our financial statements include estimates of our depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset retirement obligations; certain revenues and operating expenses; and fair values of assets and liabilities. As fair value is a market-based measurement, it is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment using the data available. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Such estimates and assumptions are adjusted when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from the estimates. Any changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.
