DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
BCP Raptor Holdco, LP (“BCP”), the Company’s predecessor for accounting purposes, was formed on April 25, 2017 as a Delaware limited partnership to acquire and develop midstream oil and gas assets. BCP’s primary operating subsidiaries are EagleClaw Midstream Ventures, LLC and CR Permian Holdings, LLC. Both subsidiaries were formed to design, engineer, install, own and operate facilities and provide services for produced natural gas gathering, compression, processing, treating and dehydration, and condensate separation, stabilization, and storage, crude oil gathering and storage and produced water gathering and disposal assets.
Altus Midstream Company (“ALTM”) was originally incorporated on December 12, 2016 in Delaware under the name Kayne Anderson Acquisition Corp. (“KAAC”) for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. KAAC completed its initial public offering in the second quarter of 2017. On August 3, 2018, Altus Midstream LP was formed in Delaware as a limited partnership and wholly-owned subsidiary of KAAC and entered into a contribution agreement with certain affiliates of Apache Corporation (“Apache” and such affiliates the “Altus Midstream Entities”), formed by Apache between May 2016 and January 2017, for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating midstream oil and gas assets in the Alpine High resource play and surrounding areas. On November 9, 2018, KAAC acquired all equity interests of the Altus Midstream Entities and changed its name to Altus Midstream Company.
On February 22, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Kinetik Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly known as Altus Midstream Company), consummated the business combination transactions contemplated by that certain Contribution Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2021 (the “Contribution Agreement”), by and among the Company, Altus Midstream LP (now known as Kinetik Holdings LP), a Delaware limited partnership and subsidiary of Altus Midstream Company (the “Partnership”), New BCP Raptor Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Contributor”) and BCP. The transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement are referred to herein as the “Transaction.” In connection with the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), the Company changed its name from “Altus Midstream Company” to “Kinetik Holdings Inc.” Unless the context otherwise requires, “ALTM” refers to the registrant prior to the Closing and “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Kinetik Holdings Inc., the registrant and its subsidiaries following the Closing.
Through its consolidated subsidiaries, the Company provides comprehensive gathering, produced water disposal, transportation, compression, processing and treating services necessary to bring natural gas, NGLs and crude oil to market. Additionally, the Company owns equity interests in four separate Permian Basin pipeline entities that have access to various markets along the Texas Gulf Coast.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain reclassifications of prior year balances have been made to conform such amounts to current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on net income. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year; accordingly, you should read these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2022 Form 10-K. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Prior to the Closing, the Company’s financial statements that were filed with the SEC were derived from ALTM’s accounting records. As the Transaction was determined to be a reverse merger, BCP was considered the accounting acquirer and ALTM was the legal acquirer. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein include (1) BCP’s net assets carried at historical value, (2) BCP’s historical results of operations prior to the Transaction, (3) the ALTM’s net assets carried at fair value as of the Closing Date and (4) the combined results of operations with the Company’s results presented within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from February 22, 2022 going forward. Therefore, the results of the legacy ALTM business were not included in the Company’s consolidated financials prior to February 22, 2022. Refer to Note 2—Business Combinations to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein for additional discussion.
The Company completed a two-for-one Stock Split on June 8, 2022. All corresponding per-share and share amounts for periods prior to June 8, 2022 have been retrospectively restated in this Form 10-Q to reflect the two-for-one Stock Split, except for the number of Common Units and shares of Class C Common Stock described above and herein in relation to the Transaction, which are presented at pre-Stock-Split amounts. This presentation is consistent with our previous public filings and the terms of the Contribution Agreement.
