The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are presented for Eagle Rock Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”).  The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 audited historical financial statements of the Partnership, including the related notes, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K on March 9, 2010, March 13, 2009, and April 1, 2008 respectively,  as well as the unaudited consolidated financial statement as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 of the Partnership, including the related notes, filed with the SEC on May 7, 2010 and May 8, 2009, respectively.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 is presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the sale of the Partnership’s fee mineral and royalty interests business, as well as its equity investment in Ivory Working Interests, L.P. (collectively, the “Minerals Business”) to BSAP II GP L.L.C. (“Black Stone Minerals”), a subsidiary of Black Stone Minerals Company, L.P., pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated December 21, 2009 and amended on January 12, 2010, by and among the Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries Eagle Rock Pipeline GP, LLC and EROC Production LLC and Black Stone Minerals, as if the transaction had occurred on March 31, 2010.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the Minerals Business sale as if the transaction had occurred on May 1, 2007, due to the Partnership acquiring the Minerals Business on April 30, 2007.  The pro forma adjustments and assumptions are described in Note 2 in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements are based on assumptions that the Partnership believes are reasonable under the circumstances and are intended for informational purposes only.  They are not necessarily indicative of the financial results that would have occurred if the transactions described herein had taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of future consolidated results.

(1)          Due to the fact that the Partnership has determined that it is more dilutive to apply the two-class method versus the treasury stock method, nonvested shares that vest solely on the basis of a service condition are included in the denominator of the computation of the diluted earnings per unit calculation which is equal to basic weighted average shares outstanding.

(1)          Due to the fact that the Partnership has determined that it is more dilutive to apply the two-class method versus the treasury stock method, nonvested shares that vest solely on the basis of a service condition are included in the denominator of the computation of the diluted earnings per unit calculation which is equal to basic weighted average shares outstanding.
